[Tai Lung's POV]
"Why are you doing this to me~?" She moaned and cried.
I would have felt pity if she was not a traitor. Now, I was only focused on myself and fulfilling my needs.
And as the strongest warrior in the world and a beast, I had great needs.
"Can I get at least one?"
"No, you are not getting a single fish tonight." I said and chomped down on the ro...

"Sooooooooooooo......." Mantis trailed.
"No one has anything to say about what we just witnessed?"
"Don't get me started, my monkey brain is still processing what happened."
Monkey said while running at a moderate pace along with his friends. Simple actions such as running or moving through obstacles were as easy as breathing to kung fu masters like them.
[Seiji's POV]
I said the time and place I was born in could not have gotten worse.
I jinxed myself because it got so much worse.
Demon Slayer. That was the world I was living in. That was my new reality.
A manga/anime that was based in the Taisho era of Japan. The main villains of the anime were the demons who fed on human flesh and were vulnerable to sunlight. These...
[Seiji's POV]
Three years elapsed even before I knew it and I had lived more than I ever did in my past life.
I was happy.
Some people might find that hard to believe, given my prior reaction to the situation I found myself in. But happiness comes from the people you surround yourself with, not from the world surrounding you. I experienced that first-hand.
Because in...
[MC's POV]
I'm fucked.
I'm so fucked.
"I am so fucked."
"How many times do I have to tell you Seiji, no cursing." A voice told me from the side while I continued staring at the ceiling as I lay flat on my black like a well-laid corpse, contemplating on how fucked I was.
My head lifelessly rolled to the side to look at the person who had just reprimanded me. He...
[Tai Lung's POV]
"So, what are we going to do next?"
Tigress asked me after we finished sending off all the remaining soldiers to run back home. There was no need for mindless slaughter after they had given up and we wanted to show some class by sparing thier lives.
We could do that because now it didn't matter. I was strong enough to make a few hundred soldiers irrelevant....
[Tai Lung's POV]
The pillar of light finally disappeared after tormenting the world for so long.
And with its disappearance, the storm that was brewing in the sky also disappeared. The clear sky became visible again and for a short period after that, there was absolute silence.
I just stared at the sky, feeling my body which was completely void of energy. I was in a comple...
[Tai Lung's POV]
For the first time in my life, I had power that was too much in my hands.
A power I had done nearly not enough to attain. A power I did not earn yet was mine and would always be mine.
To go from finite to infinite.
That was a feeling that would surely change any warrior forever, both in mind and soul. The difference between finite and infinite was in...
[Tai Lung's POV]
I was running low on chi and it would do no good to continue fighting recklessly so I took the time to go to a secluded place and I began trying to find a way to refill my chi.
The momentum of the battle was on our side but it won't last long. Numbers mattered, especially in the long run and the enemies - cultivators - were annoyingly durable and had obscene stami...
[3rd POV]
When the kung fu masters of China reached the city of Shigatse, the first thing they did was focus on defeating the city guards stationed around the walls, preventing anyone from escaping.
They made quick work of the Tibetan soldiers and immediately went on to evacuate the civilians. The sound of battle and carnage was loud. It made them realize the calibre of violence t...
[3rd POV]
She didn't know what to do.
She didn't even know which side she was on.
On one hand, she was always loyal to Tibet and she was promised great rewards if she remained loyal and worked for them.
On the other hand, there was him. He did not promise her anything and she only met him four days ago but her heart ached whenever she thought of the possibility of hi...
[3rd POV]
Everyone is afraid of the unknown.
Especially when the unknown cut them down like grass, they felt an obscene terror they had never felt before.
It made them want to bend down and vomit out thier heart in all its beating mess.
Too fast to see, too fast to hear and too fast to feel.
Even thier lifeforce could not save them because they died even b...
[Tai Lung's POV]
A small smile appeared on my face when I felt the iron net fall from the sky and crash into the city. It gave me a much-needed respite but I was even more happy at what that meant.
Mei had betrayed me but she couldn't bring herself to go all the way.
I always knew she would come around, after all, how could you truly turn your back on someone who introduced...
[3rd POV]
Thier hearts shuddered and they had to fight constantly against the primal urge to scream out in terror and run away, far from the monster that was reaping thier lives.
Thier number was not enough to strike courage into their heart and the blessing of the priestess was barely enough to fight.
No one should be this powerful.
No one should be invincible.
<...
[3rd POV]
The battle of Shigatse continued as Project Godfall entered its final stage.
Tai Lung blasted off from different structures and he also used flashestepa and used the air as a foothold to enhance his insane speed. The fight had been going on for an hour and it was only getting harder and harder for him.
A thousand of the Tibetan soldiers were still fighting while t...
[3rd POV]
When one practiced the art of cultivation, one could gain longevity by increasing thier lifeforce through mediation. And also by strengthening their body through circulating chi inside of thier body and taking in the energy of the world.
But one interesting thing about lifeforce was that not only could it lengthen your lifespan, it could also increased a person's enduran...
[3rs POV]
The air was screaming as two titanic forces collided again and again with no regard to its domain. Tai Lung moved at a speed that should not be reached as his feline body bred to kill sliced through the air with deadly accuracy.
Samudragupta's gigantic body also moved with a swiftness that did not justify his size. His huge frame churned the atmosphere, causing a small h...
[Tai Lung's POV]
"I am Tai Lung."
For a short moment after I said my name, all sound ceased to exist as the world acknowlegde me. Then the mammoth infront of me crossed his arm and borke the prevailing silence with an introduction of his own.
A name was finally attached to the mammoth infront of me.
"I am the king of the northern region of the great Gupta Empire." H...
[Tai Lung's POV]
The chaotic sound of civilians running to safety, people crying in the middle of the streets and screams of terror filled the city.
I stood there, the warm blood of my victims dripped down my hands as I looked around in search of any other survivor.
None were left breathing.
All of the soldiers who thought it was wise to ambush and surround me were a...
[Tai Lung's POV]
I'm angry.
Conquers Haki.
My anger and will materialized onto the world in the form of a heavy aura as it exploded out from my body and covered every close vicinity.
It was not even intentional as my Conquers Haki was triggered in response to my emotion and instinct. The first instinct of an animal was to growl and intimidate the ene...
[Tai Lung's POV]
"What is this?" I asked out loud with wide eyes as I realized my sense of hearing and smell could not even cover the entirety of the city.
It's like something was suppressing my senses. I thought that the suppression was done by me but I realized that was not the case after I tried to free them. Something was interfering with my senses.
But what?
It ...
[Tai Lung's POV]
I made progress.
Although I could not just command other chi as Mei could, I was able to replicate that somehow when it came to infusing them with my own chi.
It was extremely inefficient and I was better off pumping it and strengthening the object with my chi alone but progress was progress nonetheless.
Not to toot my own horn but it spoke volumes o...
[3rd POV]
"What do they take us for? Some stupid peasants whom they can bully whenever?" Lord Shen said while walking around in the army camp pn the front lines.
He had not been staying idle the past week as he was currently on the frontlines, waging the final unification war against the northern kingdoms.
The Kingdoms of Jingnan and Zhou were the only last standing kingdom...
[3rd POV]
She just wants to be happy.
She did not desire to be remembered forever, she didn't want to conquer the world, she didn't want to expand her empire and she definitely did not want wars.
But she wants to be happy and maybe find people who she could share her happiness with.
She stared at Tai Lung's serene face as he medicated in the middle of the room. She c...
[Tai Lung's POV]
"This is amazing!!"
I was expecting that sentence the moment it was decided we would have fish for breakfast. But the thick emotions behind the sentence were what caught me off guard.
She continued stuffing the fish in her mouth along with rice. She would lift her mask subtly as she ate and if not for that, I'm afraid she would've inhaled the whole thing.
[3rd POV]
I watched the girl lying on my bed in silence. She had fallen asleep mid-way into our conversation. The rhythmic rise and fall of her chest indicate that she was clearly asleep but I found myself questioning it.
Because who the fuck sleeps that peacefully when they were in the presence of an enemy?
I knew humans were lacking in animal characteristics and their ins...
[3rd POV]
He is too confident.
But Mei felt that with such a heavy chi, he probably had every right in the world to be as confident as he was.
"So, what can you do with your chi?" He asked her as she sat across from him on the table.
Was it weird that she did not feel threatened at all even though he was so strong? She did not know why either but she had to pretend ...
[Tai Lung's POV]
I concealed myself using Master Chameleon's technique and sneaked up behind her but I did not get the reaction I wanted as her mask hid her face.
Annoying.
Why was she wearing such clothes in the first place? Doesn't she feel hot?
I wouldn't know cause I have fur and she probably has none. Maybe there was a difference in how we respond to this kind o...
[Tai Lung's POV]
Math isn't real.
My current feeling was similar to one you would feel after being told that statement.
All of your understanding and the beliefs you had cultivated for years were broken in one simple sweep of a moment.
I felt my mind lagging as I tried to process the existence of the female hundreds of metres away from me.
It didn't make sens...
[3rd POV]
"This is fun." Mei said with a small smile hidden behind her mask as she walked along the road which led to Shigatse City.
Her guards were either far behind her or in front of her so it gave her a sense of freedom to walk on the road like that.
It was better than having to stay in a cage to be carried around in fear of the enemy harming her with arrows or sneak at...
