Chapter 339: Bugs!
Chapter 339: Bugs!
That same instinct led her here, and there was this strong feeling of accomplishment within her which indicated that she was at the right place, and at the right time, but she was waiting for the boys to show up so she can get some sort of reaction from that instinct, just like she did when Min Rou mentioned his name on their way here
Before long, Kun Lin, Little Ming and the guard, got to the 'Reaper's Lair' and here was Min Hong in the arena with four disciples on the floor utterly unconscious with their weapons still in their hands
But flashback to the moment when Min Hong's entourage entered the reaper's lair
Min Hong entered and could already see many familiar faces and new ones
The new ones being a youth who sat in the seat of the Sect Leader, and the middle aged man who stood behind him like a subject; apparently Patriarch Chu Huang wasn't joking about Chu Yang being ready to inherit the throne
But as for those who knew him, they now had a hint of fear within them anytime they are in the same area as him
They could bully or beat other disciples or even in some tragic occasions cripple one, but to actually kill another disciple, it was something even the worst amongst them would still think twice or thrice before doing
"Not only did that guy controlled the poor girl to kill one, but he actually killed two"
"Indeed, and those girls were not only pretty and the goddesses of someone's heart, they were also cute, popular and from very strong background"
"You mean to tell me that kid is a puppet master!?"
Two students were narrating the incident of one or two fortnights ago to an outsider who just came around, Min Hong and his group could obviously hear them, but they didn't care much about it anymore
They have already begun their plans to creating not only the largest faction in this Sect which would be strong enough to start a Family, Kingdom and so on, thus to Kun Chao, the deaths of Xi Mei and Yue Yao were like the sacrifice needed for its initiation, and who better to do it than their Empress
Thus, they entered the arena with clear consciences, peaceful hearts and absolute focus on the task Min Hong was about to undergo
This trial would be their next step on the road to building an Empire, or one might as well call it the second stone of its foundation
Min Hong entered the arena dressed like an Akatsuki member [see Naruto Shippuden for reference] he wore his outer court robe that covered everything from his neck down to this ankles with a slit in its front where he could quickly jab his hand through
He had entered the ring when the voice of a different elder sounded this time, and he looked up to the Elder overseeing the trials and he was utterly surprise by who he saw
There he was, short and round with an 90 percent bald head, yep, it was the same elder Min Hong had sent into the sand with only a single palm strike; the venerable Elder Peng
"Haha ha, things just keeps getting better and better, if you guys are here, then let me give you the show of your lives"
"Let me plunge you into the depths of despair"
"Let me show you how high the mountain you are looking to conquer is"
"Let me show you how puny your plots are, in the face of my grand ambition"
"You are all but puny frogs in a well!"
Min Hong kept muttering to himself as his Imperial 'Dawn Sovereign' bloodline began to churn with rage
It was just like an emperor who had seen vipers within his subjects; the wolves in sheep's clothing
Everywhere Min Hong looked, he saw traitors and venomous snakes in beautiful, docile and misleading skins
Elder Peng had ordered his four opponents in, just as Min Hong was intensifying with rage, Min Hong didn't know yet, but his bloodline aura had shoved the regular Min Hong into the passenger's seat of his reasoning, which is why his mumblings changed from the carefree but cautious joking tone, to a more dominating and furious tinge
His imperial aura billowed and churned madly, and not only did Patriarch Chu Huang sense it, in fact, he was seeing his own imperial aura being suppressed, and he had been an Emperor for the better part of 700 years at least, whilst his son the one who went to find a cure for him had also been an Emperor for the better part of 200 years, so their Empire; the Dogon Empire isn't an infant one, having been around for over ten thousand years
But despite that lineage of regality, their imperial auras were being forced to tremble and bow in the face of Min Hong at this point
Even Chu Huang felt his heart tremble, but no one else sensed anything
This was something only royalties can sense and Princess Cui was very far from the arena, otherwise she would have crawled beneath his crotch at this point succumbing to his domination
Similarly, would have been the feeling towards Min Qing, or even much stronger because she has the bloodline of an ancient Empress
It was a great shock to Patriarch Chu Huang who decided that from then on, they have to befriend Min Hong, especially when the old man within the void had told him to both look after him but not influence him either
Thus, Patriarch Chu Huang began to thank his stars and ancestors for what they are about to get
If Min Hong turned out to be half of what he feels he could become, then Patriarch Chu Huang would gradually rest easy in death knowing that he had surpassed his predecessors and ancestors
But it was at this point that Kun Lin brought the guard to the arena and she had begun to broadcast the battle to Princess Cui at this point, and though she could sense it much, but she could see it within Min Hong with the way he stood there in the arena, there was this vibe his imperial look was radiating
'That's him!?' Princess Cui thought to herself, seemingly happy and hopeful
If this guy truly had an imperial bloodline that would be an accomplished goal for her personally
She didn't want to be those type of princes who would just get married to a strong or wealthy man or their sons, nope
She had always dreamed of being a princess worthy enough to be married by a prince or infant emperor
Then, that would also be a very big win to her clan who might begin to have offspring and descendants from the bloodlines of two different imperial bloodlines, since Princess Cui herself had one which is still dormant though
But back within the arena, Min Hong was having a detestable impression and a look of impunity towards all these people, and just as his first four opponents came in, they instantly attacked before Elder Peng could even announce the start of the battle which seemed to piss Min Hong off the more
These guys who were all having the total battle power of 2 Star Nascent Soul Stage all launched attacks towards Min Hong;
"Hmph! Bugs!"
Min Hong snorted in anger, he looked to the incoming attacks, and activated his 'Parry path' ability of the Eye of Infinite Daos, and by the time he found the end point of his path which secretly came to settle behind his opponent...
Min Hong's aura instantly changed as he activated his Space Dao before infusing into his 'One With Dao' [Chaotic Shadow Steps], the space around him instant contracted to the extent that the final step of the 'Parry Path' shrunk to less than a step away from him
The moment Min Hong snorted he just took a step forward, and the space around him repaired itself stretching back to its normal size, shuttling Min Hong a great distance with a single step
Min Hong left a ten seconds strong replica behind who suffered the entire attack, whilst Min Hong was already on the other side of his opponents
No one's eyes could follow his speed, even the Sect leader fell for it, but Patriarch Chu Huang caught his blur and was shocked
Though, he might have been injured and only recovering his strength, he never lost his battle instincts or experience
Boom!
After the explosion cleared, these four inner court disciples looked for Min Hong to confirm if he's dead so they can quickly go and collect the rewards for the mission they have been given by that mysterious disciple
"I hope whatever you are being paid is high enough to forfeit your journey to becoming immortals?"
