A Pair of Eclipse Swords
Chapter : 14 – Fire in Heart

"This is impossible...."

The shadows in the water became blurry, the water ripples sounded quite noisy amidst this silent bamboo grove. Clear water reflecting off a person's face, a person's face with a difficult expression to interpret.

"It's not me.it's not....!!"

The water that had begun to calm down again, became unreasonable right when the young man laid his hand. Staring at his own reflection in the water, and remembering what he had just done, it made his heart shake and inexplicably frightened himself.

"Something's wrong.This must be because of the eclipse sword!!"

The young man drew out his sword, showing a ray of lightning slicing as soon as his blade came out of the sword sheath.

The beautiful carvings are deep red as if they were carved using human blood. Sung Han who saw this, without feeling the fur of his nape bristled and his body trembled. He's scared!!

"It..the devil's sword!" he said slowly with trembling and a mute tongue.

"Strike!!!"

...****************...

"What the fuck? Hey senior brother, wake up!"

The man in his twenties became panicked and quickly approached his senior brother who had fainted under a large tree.

He kicked his head with all his might until the person called senior brother gasped and sat down.

"What...what happened?" he muttered in a daze.

"Sister senior, look what this is!" exclaimed the twenty-year-old man to his senior brother who might have just stepped on the head of three.

The man turned his body and immediately his eyes were twitching and his body was squeezing. Looking at the pool of blood and body pieces here and there, his mind was shaken violently.

"What's the matter exactly?"

"Come, I don't know! When I woke up, it was like this. We should tell young master immediately!"

The thirty-year-old man was aided in standing by his junior sister. He could not open his eyes for long because the view in front of him was really sad.

"Elder.." he said later with a sad face, seeing the condition of the Golden Stick of Sukma which was no longer intact.

"There's nothing we can do, it could be that the killer is still here. Lucky we just fainted, so he might have thought we were dead. Come back soon, this stench is really boasting!" his junior said breathlessly.

These two people were the two people who had been trying to hold the Sukma Revocation Golden Stick to gang up on Sung Han. But what they got was the throwing of two other elders that immediately made them faint.

These two people were also, who, according to Sung Han's view, still had good manners in their behavior. They addressed them to the waiters of the restaurant in Batu Alam village.

"Let's go back....."

...****************...

The headquarters of the Black Dragon is arguably located in a fairly remote place. Being between two high hillsides, and just behind the headquarters was a seemingly bottomless abyss.

The high walls surrounding the entire headquarters were made pointed at the ends. By putting a fragment of a sword or spear, in order to reduce the intrusion effort.

The man, who was perhaps forty-five years old, walked out of the biggest building. On his right stood a man who was a few years younger. But because he looks full of bewok, so this man seems older.

"We're going to visit the master teacher again, young master?"

The figure that this young master called upon turned his head with a questioning look. "Where else?"

The man let out a long sigh, "Didn't the master teacher have asked us not to come to him too often. There's still a lot of business here."

The young master was pensive for a moment, looking up at the bright blue morning sky without those clouds. "I'm just thinking about the tragedy five years ago. Are we really the right side?"

The berewok glared and quickly replied, "Of course! Your own father became a victim, we can't just let him! The White Eagle deserves it!!"

The young master's gaze became sad and sad. Then he muttered, as if addressed to himself. "I remember.that gaze. He'll be looking for us."

The brewok pretended not to listen and again said, "Then what does this have to do with us visiting the master teacher and the event?"

"I want to ask for advice."

"But young master–"

"Young master!!!"

Simultaneously these two turned to find a big fat and tall man, running madly towards them.

"Pat Cake, what's up?" the brewok asked.

"Well..great right..Young master, Bao Leng, there is some shocking news!!" replied the fat man named Pat Cake.

Bao Leng, the brewok narrowed his eyes and looked in full search. "Explain!"

"Huh.hah. Just come to the gate." then Pat Cake fell flat on his back with hunting breath and sweat drenched all over his body.

Simultaneously, Bao Leng and his young master immediately exerted knowledge to lighten the body towards the gate. A few seconds later, they arrived and were immediately startled by the presence of two people who had left a few days ago.

"What's wrong?" exclaim the young master.

The two fellow students who had just experienced the great event simultaneously stood up and paid their respects to their young master. Then the older man said. "The whole company was killed, young master, when we clashed against the Heart of Satan...."

"What!! The heart of Satan is screwing!" Bao Leng looked angry. But soon stopped by his young master.

The thirty-year-old man nodded and went back to explain, "When we clashed with them, came a young man whose intelligence was extraordinarily terrifying. He claimed that it used to be White Rajawali."

Then he also told me the conditions after the fight were very sad.

"What?"

The eyes of the young master and Bao Leng widened. Then the young master's body was like shivering with his mouth slightly open. He suddenly remembered that he was a very modestly dressed boy, who at the time of the clash of the Black Dragon with the White Eagle five years ago was only able to stand still with a frightened look. Then at the last moment, he grabbed onto the body of a little girl while crying. A boy who would probably die at the hands of Bao Leng if he didn't quickly save him.

"He's back?"

"Sat! Where did that young man come from, huh!?" Bao Leng became furious.

"I don't know! I was with junior sister passed out during the incident. Even the two of us don't know who did all those murders. All I know, is just a clash with the Heart of Demons, then came the White Eagles lackey youth." this man replied in fear as his collar was pulled violently by Bao Leng.

"Bao Leng, calm down! We continue our business. Both of you, hurry in and get some rest!"

...****************...

"You wait outside."

Bao Leng simply nodded in agreement with what his young master had ordered.

This forty-five-year-old man walked into a very dark, also sinister cave. On the walls of the cave overgrown with various kinds of moss and also holes no matter what it is.

But once it entered further, the room in the cave became spacious and right at the end of the cave, the room became very spacious and bright.

The room at the end of this cave obtains a supply of sunlight from small holes in the ceiling of the cave.

In the middle of the room, sat a bald, narrow-eyed old man, dressed in a black robe with golden dragon embroidery on his chest. In front of the man was a small book. Then on his left side, there were two white fans.

"Teacher.I came to visit." the young master bowed respectfully.

Jade Shi, that was the figure that was currently sitting alone inside that cave. Alienated himself and handed over all the tasks of the Black Dragon leadership to this figure called young master.

The Black Dragon Leader smiled faintly then sounded his voice slowly. It was slow, but it sounded like it was coming from different directions.

"Gu Ren, lift your head. Is there anything you've been to here?"

Gu Ren, the figure of the young master raised his head and continued, "Want to ask the teacher for advice."

"What advice is that?" Jade Shi in a soft voice replied.

"There have been so many problems that have befallen the Black Dragon since you went into seclusion. I know you don't want the book and the heirloom to fall into the wrong hands, but the Black Dragon these days is always getting into trouble."

"Hm, what is it? I'm sure with you and Bao Leng, everything's fine."

Gu Ren continued, "As the teacher knows himself, the affairs with the White Eagles are increasingly complicated and confusing, even they disappear somewhere. Then lately we have often been involved in clashes with the Heart of Satan. And I just received a report that the Golden Cane has died."

Jade Shi frowned and his head slightly raised. Then he smiled again, "Your woe is not finished. Gu Ren, go ahead and let me hear the full story."

Finally after some time had passed, Gu Ren told the story of the massacre of the twelve Black Dragon envoys delivered by a pair of brothers. He also explained about the appearance of young men who claimed to have been White Rajawali lackeys.

"Gu Ren's. This matter concerns three sides."

"I know the teacher!"

"Well, just my message, don't make a fuss with the White Eagles. They're innocent, I'm sure."

"I also think so teacher. It seems like it's just the two of us and a handful of people who believe in it. We both know, almost all Black Dragon members are former bandits and criminals that you used to submit to. They won't accept it if revenge hasn't been avenged." Gu Ren said worriedly.

"Well, you're smart. Now with the intervention of the Heart of Satan, perhaps.it is complicated..." Although he was still smiling, however, Jade shi's eye light showed a change.

"Devil's heart, are they the ones who have stirred up this prolonged conflict?" suddenly Gu Ren exclaimed and shocked Jade Shi. "yes too! It could be like that!!"

"Gu Ren, don't just accuse."

"Teacher, we're a big party. As everyone already knows, we are the treasure hunters of World King Silat. Then about the ownership of the book and the heirloom that you find it, stirring the jungle. The heart of the Devil certainly wants to take advantage of this!!"

"If so, then what should we do?" Jade Shi was still being delicate and patient.

"That cannot be allowed, the Heart of Satan must take responsibility for everything. My father died because of them!!" Gu Ren seemed to have forgotten who he was talking to. He said all of that with overflowing emotions.

Jade Shi looked at Gu ren's pair of eyes attentively. "What about that White Rajawali lackey?"

"Eh, you mean the teacher?"

"Aren't you thinking about it. The greater threat may not have come from the Heart of Satan, but from the boy. You said yourself that you saved a boy from the White Guard, right?"

Gu Ren paused for a moment before replying, "True teacher." But he quickly connected, "I mean teacher, only one person he was able to threaten us. Teacher, it–"

"Gu Ren, you're the only one who knows me...." Jade Shi looked at his disciple sharply. "Gu Ren, the fire that's here, is very difficult to extinguish." Jade Shi pointed at his own chest.

"Gu Ren, if it was that child you saved, wouldn't he be just like me? Gu Ren, the fire that is in the heart, can burn everything...."

Gu Ren's face turned pale.
