Chapter 31: Enacting Vengeance
"Alright enough of the mushy mushy talk, time for some payback with these guys"
Saying that Long Chen showed a sadistic smile.
"Brat just what are you "
The Yama emperor asked in a flustered manner. He has recovered quite a bit of his prowess and just woke up.
Although he was observing everything.
The interaction between Long Chen and Poison just blew his mind.
He originally had some plans to betray Long Chen but seeing his knowledge and skills, he is honestly scared.
…
10 minutes ago,
Everybody except for Long Chen and Poison was moving towards the heart of magma. Which happened to be at the center at the very end.
It was Orangish black and shaped like a big boulder.
Also occasionally it would vibrate moving like a heartbeat.
Yun Gou was a little pissed that so many people were moving towards something he had set his eyes on.
He tried bringing up the clan but they just ignored him. It was the first time in his life bringing up his clan name was not helpful at all.
"Damn these mongrels this young master will surely teach them a lesson "
Yun Gou muttered while hatefully gnashing his teeth.
'Whoosh'
Bang.
A firey stone came out of nowhere, hitting Yun Gou making him throw up blood and crash beside the magma lakeside.
"Oh shit defend yourselves, get back"
"Charge attack forwards"
"Ahhh noo "
Many firey stones were being fired from the magma heart, some people started turning around to return.
In hopes of looting the heart, when someone collects it.
"What it thaaaaaat"
"Noooo-"
'Whoosh' 'Whoosh'
While the people were trying to escape some miniature magma golems rose and started killing them.
Every single one of them was as strong as a half-step essence gathering martial artist.
In about a couple of minutes, total chaos had ensued in the magma lake.
.
.
.
Present,
Long Chen has a solemn expression while observing the chaos around the lake.
"Alright Ding Hu stay here I will get it "
Long Chen unsheathed his sabers and walked towards the center of the lake, where the magma heart was located.
He shifted his gaze towards the battlefield, like a predator eyeing delectable prey.
People had mixed reactions watching Long Chen walk towards them.
"Long Chen save me, my clan will generously reward you"
Yun Gou shouted while being surround by his lackeys, who were putting their lives on the line to make sure he gets escorted back safely.
His forehead was covered in sweat, while lightly shivering in the hot environment.
Seeing him begging for help Long Chen smirked and started running towards him.
With the speed Long Chen was moving at, he was easily able to evade all the mini golems and firestones.
"Give young master Yun Gou to me"
The lackeys hesitated for a moment before pushing Yun Gou towards Long Chen.
'Tch this idiot Long Chen will be useful for once, I will surely kill him afterward'
Growing up due to his mediocre aptitude Yun Gou has been disdained and shamed a lot by his family.
Making him a deranged person, just seeing someone talented and hardworking like Long Chen, makes him wanna slaughter.
Before he could even finish his thought he felt intense pain in the abdomen.
Following which he threw up blood.
'Pucht'
Looking down he saw a black saber shoved inside his dantian. Suddenly Nether Qi suddenly started rampaging inside his body, destroying his meridians.
Looking up he saw Long Chen's indifferent face.
"Y-you whatttttt are you…." Yun Gou's eyes reddened and his face deformed due to the myriad of emotions he felt.
"Tch Trash, don't think I don't what goes through your brain. Good riddance"
Saying that Long Chen knocked the back of Yun Gou's head before throwing his body at the shore.
"You bastard what are you DOING ????"
"Long Chen you bastard, do you wish to have your clan annihilated"
"Long Chen, the Yun clan will never forgive you"
The Yun clan members were flabbergasted by the turn of events.
So much so that they even forgot to defend against their enemies for a moment.
"Your young master dared to touch one of my people so of course he deserved death, But don't worry I will reunite yall"
Long Chen said indifferently.
"Kill him, take him down"
"Even if we die, we can't let this bastard walk away"
"We will have done a meritorious deed if we kill him"
'Talon's whip'
Rotating his wrist, while coating his saber with nether qi.
Long Chen easily maneuvered their attacks.
'Slash' 'Slash''Slash'
His attacks looked like sneaky pythons, who effortlessly maneuvered around their attacks before strangling them to death.
In about 10 breaths of time, all of them were dead.
Seeing this everybody around him had bad feelings.
They dropped their weapons and started rushing towards the shore.
Absolutely disregarding all the hostile creatures around them.
Long Chen looked at them with pity, before his gaze became decisive.
These people knew too much disregarding him killing the Yun Clan young master alongside his clansmen, He would even possess a heart of magma.
Which will take time to assimilate, and will even concur with the greed of sects.
He then attacked everybody.
'Eagle King's Wrath
Everyone who was hit was cleaved into two.
Since his body was as strong an initial essence gathering realm.
He pretty much bulldozed his way through disregarding all attacks.
Even the fire golems or bullets couldn't so much as scratch his skin.
In about 5 minutes all living creatures including the golems were lying dead.
In the center of the small golems were small crimson red-colored cores.
They contained very pure essence qi and each one carried the energy equivalent to half step essence gathering cultivator.
The fire stones had now gotten twice as large and were targeting Long Chen exclusively.
'It's a shame I can't devour these fire golems since they aren't compatible with me'
He then collected all their spatial rings along with the red-colored cores in the mini golem.
They would be incredibly helpful for fire elemental cultivators or even yang inclined cultivators.
"jiejie Brat you finally did something to this lord's blessing"
"Old man I have a family I can't go making enemy with everyone in the world"
"They are you weakness brat, in this lord's rise to power pretty much everyone around me, even my sect mates wanted me dead.
But I still made it because I did not hesitate to do anything.
I was a true devil lord, how do you think I got my name"
At this point, the Yama Emperor's voice got a layer of profoundness and it had a tinge of madness to it.
"Brat if you kill a couple of more influential people it will create the chaos you want to"
'This man wants to see the world in chaos' Long Chen was a bit irked by him
"Old man I think you need to calm down, your will has gotten weaker"
The Yama emperor fell silent.
Long Chen honestly fell silent seeing a devil lord falling to this deranged state.
"Brat remembers to be ruthless every time, I know you may be an old monster or whatever but I am gonna call you brat.
Be more ruthless or even those who you spare won't ever be grateful to you.
Don't be an idiot …. like me"
He said the last part in a very small voice.
Long Chen fell silent at this.
Some memories started popping, reminiscing about which made Long Chen tightly clench his fist.
"Old man, life is tough but you gotta be tougher. If you help me I won't ever mistreat you"
Both men fell silent for a moment.
Long Chen then walked towards the magma heart.
The magma heart was about a meter long, and about 10 inches thick.
It was bright red and was palpitating fire through its veins.
Its appearance was a bit similar to the normal human heart.
As if sensing Long Chen's presence the magma heart started shivering a little and the firestones started going ballistic.
"Don't resist little baby come to papa"
Saying that he quickly closed the distance between himself and the heart.
The magma heart started diving deeper underground but Long Chen manhandled it using his bare hands.
"Alright you aren't going anywhere, DEVOUR"
The essence qi inside the magma heart started going haywire before eventually becoming dormant.
Before it could enter Long Chen's body he stopped it.
Making a small cut on his fingers he tried making a seal.
Only a couple of droplets of blood flew before the wound healed itself.
'Shit I gotta make a super deep cut'
Taking his saber he shoved it in his palms till it reached his bones before dragging it to make a super long deep cut.
"Ahh this is so much better"
Then using that blood he made a pattern on the magma heart.
"Bloodseal "
Some red-colored seals appeared before disappearing.
After which Long Chen stored the magma heart inside his spatial ring before going to the shore.
He picked Yun Gou with one hand and made his way towards Ding Hu.
Ding Hu stopped cultivating and opened his eyes, He was about to say something before he noticed Yun Gou and his eyes turned bloodshot.
Ding Hu started shaking with madness, like a deranged pervert seeing a jade beauty buck naked completely defenseless.
"All right, you can exact revenge now" Saying that Long Chen threw Yun Gou over.
Before stomping on Yun Gou's nuts to wake him up.
"Ahhhhh y-you Long Chen are you made we have no grievances"
Yun Gou howled madly, while his eyes turned red.
"NOOOO! a grievance is IT ?" Saying that Ding Hu took off his hood.
"Young master, I am Ding Hu, you remember me right? "
"Who are you, I don't know you " Yun Gou absentmindedly answered.
"REALLY THINK HARD, do you remember emerald city"
Before Yun Gou could even answer, Ding Hu took out a dagger and chopped one of Yun Gou's fingers off.
"Ahhhh stop I will tell you " Yun Gou started howling and tears started streaming down his face.
"Emerald city I think I have been there once "
"Then do you know a boy and girl, you cornered to death"
"Y-yyou are that boy, It wasn't my intention your city people told me there was a beautiful girl. It's not my fault lemme go and I could help you get revenge"
Yun Gou peed his pants and started hysterically begging.
Long Chen just looked away in disgust
"HAHAHA YOU DOG BASTARD YUN GOU, let you go hahaha I have dreamt of tormenting you in my dreams."
Saying that Ding Hu broke Yun Gou's teeth.
Before he started mincing and skinning him alive.
Ding Hu was howling like a mad ghost, while Yun Gou wailed like a pitful dog.
"Yun Gou don't worry I will reunite all your clansmen with you.
Of course before I show them 9 layers of hell"
"You bastard I will reunite with your woman in hell, It's such a shame I couldn't taste her"
