Reborn As A Dragon Girl With A System-Novel

Chapter 590 - Demonic Cultivators Part 2

The Kana and the rest stood right outside the cave entrance and already could hear sounds of screams coming from within. Mei Ling shrunk back and held on to Kana's arm. Kana looked at the young girl and reached out and patted her head while saying: "We will be fine." Mei Ling looked up at Kana. She did not know why but when she saw Kana's soft smile and warm gaze, she felt that things truly would be okay.

The group entered the cave with Yi Tan taking the lead. Liu Na took the rear with the others in the middle. The scent of blood was thick in the air and made Kana's nose wrinkle. As they progressed further in, streaks of blood could be seen on the ground. Some were still fresh and came from empty rooms dug out of the walls on the left and right of the passage.

No one said a word as they continued on. But the grim expressions on everyone's faces said enough. They all gripped their weapons as they continued deeper until they finally came to a room where muffled sounds could be coming from behind a wooden door. The girls blushed, and the guys' faces went black. "You girls stay back."

The girls all nodded, including Kana. When they were far enough away, Yi Tan burst into the room. The sounds of yelling came from within and then silence. It seemed the sounds of screaming from the other sections of the cave canceled out the screams in the room. "Senior Brother, you helped them on their way, right?"

"Mmm… That was the youngest, Wu Gang. So young but still doing such things…" Yi Tan's face was cold. "What was worse was the girls' grateful looks as I sent them on their way." Kana's face went black hearing Yi Tan. Such treatment was not something anyone should have to deal with. To only find peace in death said just how horrible the things happening to them were.

Liu Na saw Kana's fist clenching and leaned over and whispered: "Don't worry. We will kill them all."

"I know. Luckily these idiots do not have any kind of warning system set up." Kana said. They had easily walked into this place, showing just how little preparations these demonic cultivators had prepared.

"That is most likely because they are from a side branch of the Wu family. The Wu family is a well known demonic clan. And those of the side family will never get much in the name of cultivation resources. This is also probably why this group decided to hide deep in the forest. They probably wanted to gain as much power as they could and prove themselves. You will see that even within the academy, once you get there, the same thing happens there.

"This is why our group is also so small. We are all from the same town and get along well. We have to work together as a group to gain our resources so we can hopefully one day make a name for ourselves. As cultivators, those from smaller villages have to leave their families behind as most are normal humans. They can never return home. Because by becoming a cultivator their life is long and if they offend the wrong person it will bring danger not only to themself but also to their families as well.

"The cultivation world, as you can see, is life or death. You either have the strength to walk a path of glory and make a name for yourself. Or if you are not careful, you will be the one being beaten into the ground or used as a means of cultivation by demonic sects like the people in this cave now." Liu Na explained softly. She did not raise her voice as they were still going further in.

"Mmm… I understand." Kana understood this concept very well.

"Who are you, people!?" A voice came from within the big room as Yi Tan entered it.

"Wu Tai! You and your siblings went too far and dared to touch my Moon Crest Academy's disciples! Did you think we would stand for that!? You and your siblings will die here today!" Yi Tan yelled, his sword at the ready.

Wu Tai's face went black. He knew that if this group of righteous cultivators was standing here now, then his younger brother was already dead. Anger welled up within him as he cut his hand and infused the blood with his spiritual qi. As he did this, a bloody sword began to form in his hand. "You killed Little Gang!"

"Tai'er what is going… You!" A young woman came rushing out from one of the side rooms. When she saw Yi Tan and the others, she immediately became alert. "Tai'er, where is Little Gang!?"

"They killed him!" Wu Tai yelled through gritted teeth.

"I will hold them off. You go get big brother!" Wu Ya was the strongest under Wu Ming, so it was only natural for her to have Wu Tai go get help while she held them off.

"Senior Brother, let me take care of this bitch." Shi Yu stepped forward with her sword drawn. She was also in the early stages of qi condensation.

"Then I leave it to you. Just be careful. Fighting demonic cultivators can be tricky." Yi Tan warned.

"I know." Shi Yu said these words before charging forward. She did not wish to give Wu Ya a chance to use any of her blood techniques.

"Humph! You are truly seeking death!" Wu Ya yelled.

Yi Tan and Gu Tanzi were going to go chase after Wu Tai but stopped when Kana suddenly yelled out. "Don't! If you go, you will be leaving yourself open to more attacks. For now, we stay here and wait. Either help Sister Yu or stand to the side and wait for them to come to us."

Pausing their steps, the two boys turned back and looked at Kana. After thinking for a moment, they both nodded their heads. This was definitely the best plan at this time… There was no telling if their luck would be good and no traps were set up, but if they were and were caught in one they could easily lose their lives.
