More than a dragon Warrior

Who is the better villain?

[Tai Lung's POV]

Who would've thought that Lord Shen and his minions would be camping out in such an obvious location and that too so close to the city?

"Interesting." I said and looked around at the cultivated farmland that spread out as far as the eye could see. They were growing rice, pulses, potatoes, beans etc and right at the center of the fields were huge buildings raging from storage, houses and greenhouses.

But the Gorilla and wolf guards patrolling the surroundings told me that these buildings were not used as they were supposed to be. Something bigger and more serious than simple grains and farm tools were housed inside these buildingd.

I took in the scent of gunpowder and iron coming from the buildings and I could already guess what was inside.

"But how can Shen get himself such a great and obvious hideout?" I asked myself. The whole thing was too convenient. The fact that it was near the main road so that cannons could be easily transported, the way it was on a farm where the soldiers could get sufficient rations, the location which was close to the city but at the same time very well hidden from everyone else.

It was too good to be true. The whole thing told me that there was a deeper plot to it.

I could stand here and think about it or I could go attack the guards and ask them directly. After a few seconds of contemplation, the choice became obvious.

"Violence it is." I said with an evil smile before I approached the place guarded by patrolling wolves and Gorillas.

I quickly walked through the dirt road leading to the center and it did not take long for the guards to notice me.

"Hey!! You!! Did you not see the sign!! Get out of here!!" A giant gorilla came up to me with two other wolf soldiers.

I did indeed see the sign that says it was the private property of Zhang Wi, the patriarch of the Wi noble house but I was pretty sure Lord Shen and his goons were not of the Wi house.

"Are you deaf beggar? I said LEAVE!!" The Gorilla seemed to have a short temper as he came up to me quickly. I swiftly took down my hood and he stopped on his track.

"Are you sure you want to do this monkey?" I asked and all three of them were rooted on the spot. I smiled in satisfaction, the only time I liked being feared.

Like everything in life, being feared has its good and bad sides.

Not long after, one of the wolves turned around and sprinted towards the building, possibly to inform the others of my presence.

I did not say anything and let the wolf run away from me. Then I continued walking towards the building and even when I walked pass the two remaining guards, they did not do anything.

But when I walked past them and my back was turned against them, they thought they could launch a surprise attack ay me.

"Haaaaa!!!!" The wolf soldier swiped his sword at me from behind. Idiot, screaming out loud destroys the whole purpose of a surprise attack.

But I could understand, it must've taken a lot of courage to even attack me from behind. He could not be blamed for screaming out to calm his nerves and to push down his fears.

I quickly turned around and chomped down on the incoming swords that was aiming for the back of my neck. My canines clamped down on the steel and easily broke it into pieces.

Then in one effortless motion, I kicked his knee and it immediately overextended and bent the wrong way. When you are afraid and put everything behind an attack, your muscles tensed up and you become unaware of where you even put your body weight.

This time, the wolf put all of his weight on one leg to spin and swing as hard as he could. A big mistake as a small pressure caused him to break his limb.

*crack!*

He let out a shrill of pain like a kicked puppy before he quickly fell on the ground. His gorilla friend swung his giant arms at me in a hook.

Gorillas were born with powerful torsos and their arms were one of the strongest pairs in all of the animal kingdom. So a casual swing of the Gorilla held enough strength to make a whistling sound as it whipped towards me.

It was nothing compared to the likes of Master Rhino though.

I weaved past the hook and delivered an uppercut to his chin that shook his brain and immediately made his body limp. I did not stop there as I hugged his huge arms and tugged as hard as I could.

I smiled madly before I pivoted on my heels and spun around. The gorilla's huge body obeyed my action and I spun around six times, gathering momentum before I let go and threw him towards the building.

His huge body flew in the air, sailing across more than 50 meters I'm the sky before he crashed into the building like an asteroid and a huge explosion followed.

*BOOOOOM!!!*

..

When you think about it, it's quite tragic that Shen was about to face me instead of the inexperienced Po as he was supposed to.

But I guess he was going to lose either way so it didn't really matter.

"Let's see who is the better villain." I said with an amused smile before I cracked my neck. Then with a roar, I tore off my cloak and sprint towards the destroyed building on all fours.

The guards inside immediately got alerted and when they saw me running towards them, they visibly shook in their place before they got courage in their numbers.

"An attacker!! Protect the base!!" One of the wolves said and they all started charging at me. My eyes flashed and I counted 67 of them.

It was said that the strength of the wolf was the pack, so they were braver and far more stronger when they attacked me together.

They were nothing but pests to me though, as I easily took them out when they were close to me. It was almost like they were running to their own death as they approached me with an adrenaline-filled body.

I never stopped running as I easily cleared them out. Their bodies flew and crashed against each other and one hit from me was enough to put them out.

I dodged two arrows shot my way and I ran in a zig-zag to avoid more shots. Three wolves swung their sword from different directions and I quickly spun around and swept them off their feet. Then before they hit the ground, I hit their nerves and they fell paralyzed on the ground.

I continued my approach. I was an unstoppable force which the wolves could never hope to slow down even for a second.

Finally, when their numbers were dwindled, I grabbed one by the throat and lifted him off the ground. The house they were hiding in was only a few meters in front of me.

"How long have you been staying here?" I asked and waited for two seconds. But the wolf was only struggling and growling, he was not interested in answering my question.

So I slammed him on the ground while ducking under a sword that was aiming to chop off my head. Then I caught the attacker by the throat and did the same as I did before and lift him off the ground.

"Is the house of Wi supporting you or are you blackmailing him?" I asked and the wolf answered this time.

"He-he He is on Lord Shen's side!! He gave us-!!!" The wolf died in my hand before he could finish as a blade shaped like a feather lodged itself at the back of his skull.

My ears picked up the sound of feathers fluttering in the wind and my nose finally caught the scent it was always tracking.

I threw the corpse of the wolf to the side and locked eyes with the White Peacock that had finally come out to confront me.

"Tai Lung." Shen greeted me as he landed elegantly on the ground. His eyes held the seed of insanity but the spark of cunning and intelligence in them was what caught my attention.

"Shen." I said and his eyes scrunched up at my casual way of addressing him. He was used to being called Lord Shen or Prince Shen all his life, I think I was the only one who used to and still called him Shen.

"To what do I owe the pleasure of your visit." He asked me in a measured tone. A normal person might not notice it but I instantly picked up his long words and slow speaking.

He was buying time.

I looked behind him and I could see the Gorillas slowly bringing out the cannons and they adjusted it to point at me through the wall of the house.

'So that's why only the wolves came to intercept me.'

If he wanted to buy time, I could let him.

"Oh, I thought I'd visit before leaving the city. You seemed to be in a hurry the last time we met so we did not have a proper reunion." I said with a smile on my face as I confidently folded my arms.

"Tell me, do you still cry when the maids forget to put warm water in your bathtub?" I asked and I saw his eyes twitch. We were old acquaintances who knew each other even during our childhood so I was aware of these things.

He acted more flabbergasted and upset than he actually was to buy time. He was a great actor as I saw him choke on my words and his eyes turned angry.

"Y-You insolent cat! Do you want me to tell this to Shifu? You will cry again if Daddy dearest scolds you." He snapped back at me and I choked on my own breath.

I coughed a couple of times to shrug off my embarrassment before I said, "I did not cry. I was just teary."

"Sure you were." He drawls and turned back to look at his canons. When he saw that his weapons were ready, a crazy smile appeared on his face.

"But this would make daddy cry for sure!!!" He said and leapt back. His wings spread out as he floated backwards and he landed on one of his cannons.

The gorillas pushed the cannons and they destroyed the wall. Finally, six dragon-shaped cannons appeared and aimed towards me.

I stayed in my place and my arms remained folded. A confident smile that borderlined sadistic was on my face.
