1917 Stealing Spring Water

Han Sen quietly drew out his Ghost Teeth Knife . He stood near the spring and waited for it to erupt . Sword Know frowned, but he didn’t attack Han Sen . He knew the Kings were watching him . If they fought Han Sen now, Yisha wouldn’t be very forgiving .
“Don’t think Knife Queen’s protection grants you the ability to do anything you want . When the spring erupts, you better not stop me . I will fight you for it,” Sword Know said grimly .
Han Sen continued to ignore him, and he just focused his attention on the spring’s eye .
Sword Know, seeing Han Sen being so arrogant, was enraged . He was an Earl, and Han Sen was just a Baron . That made him very upset . He wished to say something, but someone came closer to the spring’s eye . It was Moon Wheel King’s eldest daughter, Rebecca .
The person directly behind Rebecca was the Viscount of the Tego . He had also become an Earl now . The change happened after he fought the xenogeneics .
Not long after, seven or eight Earls arrived . They had all just become Earls, as well . They didn’t make it obvious like Sword Know had by making themselves Earls as soon as they arrived .
But they knew what they were each trying to do, and so no one raised a fuss to blame one another .

The people that the Kings had sent were the Earls that needed to take the spring water . The Viscounts did not come . They took a path through the mountains, to prohibit the xenogeneics from coming in . They were killing all that dared to try .
Suddenly, near the spring’s eye, the red mist vanished, revealing a black tunnel . It was only around the size of a man’s fist, and it was difficult to determine how deep it went .
After the mist faded, a red light shot out of the cave . It fired straight up into the sky like a red beam . The beam was around an arm’s thickness . It rose into the sky, but it did not spread out . It looked rather weird .
The Viscounts and the Earls knew the red mist spring was now erupting . The Earls quickly positioned themselves so they could steal the water .
“Get away!” The Tego Earl came at Han Sen, holding a big knife .
The spring eye was too small, and the surrounding area was fairly limited . Seven to eight people were already there . Han Sen had taken the best spot, and the Tego wanted to push him away .
Han Sen stared at the man, because he was not going to budge for anyone .

The Tego Earl’s eyes looked cold . He swung his Ghost Head Knife at Han Sen . The black knife looked like the gaping maw of a tiger, ready to swallow him up .
Rebecca and the others were shocked . They weren’t expecting Tego to go all in . He really wanted to kill Han Sen .
Genuine fights often made the avoidance of death a difficulty, but Han Sen was Knife Queen’s student . Even if Rebecca was the one who wanted to kill him, she’d have to think twice about doing such a thing . It was rare for the Tego to do something like this so recklessly .
But the Tego Earl had been sent here by Shadow King . The others now thought that this might have made sense .
Shadow King was a very cruel individual . He controlled the Rebate’s Dark Moon Hall, and often committed to acts that destroyed families . He wasn’t like any of the other Kings . His men were fearless, unlike ordinary Nobles .
Han Sen merely moved his legs and evaded the Tego Earl’s attack . He quickly leaped above the Tego’s head .
“Good . ” The Tego had expected Han Sen to move away with that speed . His left hand punched upwards, though, with a lion’s roar to accelerate it . It was something that was even scarier than the blade he wielded .

Now everyone realized his proficiency actually lay in fist skills and not knives . The attack was just to trick Han Sen .
“Scary guy . He must be a part of Dark Moon Hall,” Rebecca thought to herself .
“Han Sen is either going to die or be heavily injured,” Sword Know and the others guessed . Han Sen was fast, but the Tego Earl could anticipate and match his speed . They were so close to each other, and the latter was a far stronger fighter . If he wasn’t going to be merciful, Han Sen was a dead man .
Seeing the Tego’s facial expression, though, it seemed unlikely that he’d be handing out mercy .
As the fist-like tiger come up to Han Sen, Han Sen accelerated . In the air, he flew around like a hawk and avoided the Tego Earl’s fist attack . Then, he used his Ghost Teeth Knife to slash the felon’s neck .
The Tego Earl’s neck had a small slice . It wasn’t a deep cut, but it was bleeding . And what’s more, it emitted a purple mist .
“What are those shoes Han Sen has? They’re so fast! That speed is equal to the best even a Marquise can achieve . ” Rebecca and the other Earls were all in shock . They looked at Han Sen’s rabbit shoes with ravenous greed .
The Tego Earl had been struck with Teeth power . The wound was small, though, and he was an Earl, so the power spread slowly . It’d be a little while before much damage was inflicted .
The Tego Earl roared with anger, and he wished to strike Han Sen again . But then, the spring eye flashed red . A red ball shot into the sky . It was so fast, not even Han Sen could react to it in time .
But as it went higher, it slowed down . When it reached a hundred meters in the sky, the red ball exploded . It was like a firework, and the spring water came out with it . There was a scatter of seven to eight drops .
The Tego Earl did not have time to fight Han Sen . Rebecca and the others were rushing up into the sky to collect the red waterdrops . But after rising a mere dozen meters, something suddenly flashed and sent them back down . They couldn’t even eat dust .
Rebecca and the others were shocked . Han Sen was far too fast, and he was going to take two to four drops of the spring water .
They had clearly underestimated Han Sen’s speed . Han Sen was flying like a phoenix, with the speed of shooting shadow . He managed to take every single waterdrop, and not leave a single one for the others .
Everyone was so mad, they wished to fight Han Sen . But then, another orb came shooting into the sky . Everyone was shocked, and they all tried to get the spring water that would be inside this second ball .
