“Move aside, move aside! You all, these unchaste faded beauties, also want to fight with your mother? Handsome, follow me!”
…
There was a wave of commotion outside Capone Capital City’s city gates. Seven to eight amorous women surrounded a young and handsome youth.
The women all pushed and pulled, all wanting to take this handsome guy for their own.
The fiend race women were completely different from human women. Most of them were very open and uninhibited.
Regarding the matters of men and women, they did not shy from talking about it.
Taking fancy on a guy, they would surround over like bees and butterflies.
The fiend race men were mostly ugly and savage. Hence, when pretty boys occasionally appeared, they would be wildly sought after by these girls.
The man surrounded in the center by these women was simply an outstandingly handsome man compared to other guys, completely not on the same level.
It was just that this guy’s glabella was actually somewhat similar to Ye Yuan.
This person was precisely the Ye Yuan who flew across the natural chasm and sneaked into the fiend race!
The current Ye Yuan’s figure was considerably more robust compared to before. His face also had additional hints of a ruthless and evil air.
He looked rather bloodthirsty.
After Ye Yuan killed Xiu Lie, he found a fiend cultivation method inside his storage ring.
Then, Ye Yuan used the Chaos Heavenspan Canon to operate the fiend cultivation method, and actually converted all of the divine essence in his body into fiend essence.
The Chaos Heavenspan Canon was all-encompassing. It could convert into any form of energy.
This aspect, Ye Yuan had long discovered it.
Ye Yuan discovered that the paste divine essence within his body seemed to be higher-rank than the average person’s divine essence.
As long as he was willing, he could imitate any kind of cultivation method at will.
The current Ye Yuan gave off a fiendish aura from top to bottom. It was no different from ordinary fiends.
Those members of the fiend race completely could not tell that he was actually a human.
But this scene, it aroused quite a few fiend race men’s displeasure.
“Heh, pretty boy, I want to challenge you!” A savage looking fiend man directly stopped Ye Yuan.
“Goodness, Lang Ge. You’re a grand completion Two-star Fiend General, but you want to challenge a middle-level Two-star handsome guy, aren’t you shameless?” said a fiend race woman unhappily.
The fiend race’s realm division was the same as the human race. It was just that the terms were somewhat different.
From low to high, they were respectively Fiend Soldier, Fiend General, Fiend Commander, Fiend Lord, Fiend King, Fiend Sovereign, Fiend Empyrean, and the fiend race’s Heavenly Emperor!
Heaven Glimpse Realm martial artists corresponded to Fiend General.
This Lang Ge was a grand completion Two-star Fiend General, which was also grand completion Heaven Glimpse Realm.
Lang Ge glared and said coldly, “Hua Rong, yesterday, you were still saying that I am matchlessly heroic and only like me alone. Now, you actually took fancy on a pretty boy! Your father wants to make him explode with one punch; let you see who’s the hero!”
The fiend race woman said with a wide grin, “Lang Ge, you aren’t going to be like the humans, doing what ‘a day together as husband and wife means endless devotion the rest of your life’, right? Yesterday is yesterday, today is today. Don’t you say so, handsome?”
The moment Lang Ge heard thi, he brimmed even more with jealousy, his face contorting into a wrinkled sheet as he said furiously, “Pretty boy, accept my challenge if you have the balls! What kind of man are you to hide behind a woman? Oh, I get it. You’re not a man at all, but a gigolo, hahaha …”
“Hahaha!”
“Lang Ge, aren’t you bullying people here? He’s a middle-level Two-star Fiend General. How can he possibly be your match?”
“Yeah, Hua Rong this girl had a momentary spur too. When she gets tired of playing with this pretty boy, she’ll return to your side!”
“Our fiend race’s pretty boys, apart from Lord Ka Xin, they are all pleasant to the eye but useless vases; one touch and they shatter. Lang Ge, take it easy.”
…
The waves of laughter around were all mocking Ye Yuan.
Actually, Ye Yuan did not wish to be such a maverick too. It was just that the fiend race men’s appearances, he seriously could not bear to look at it.
Even if Ye Yuan was at the human race, he could be considered a handsome man too. Right now, this sort of appearance was already the maximum that he could tolerate.
Making him turn into like Lang Ge, he would rather go and die.
Suddenly, Ye Yuan’s mind stirred.
A group of men and horses were slowly riding into the city. The one in the lead was a cold and proud woman.
Ordinary fiend race women, because of their cultivation methods, were mostly very pretty and amorous. Their looks were also very outstanding.
But that cold and proud woman appeared very different among these mature women.
She was neither as gentle and good-natured as human women nor as licentious and unrestrained like fiend race women. Her beauty was matchless but had a kind of wild beauty.
The moment she appeared, those women next to Ye Yuan immediately paled in comparison.
“It’s Miss Li Ji! Tsk tsk, truly beautiful! If I can approach her, I’d be willing to be a ghost too!” whispered a fiend race man.
Slap!
Everyone only heard a crisp whipping sound. That fiend race man’s head directly exploded like a watermelon. Even his fiend soul was scattered too; he was deader than dead.
“Since you want to be a ghost, then I’ll grant your wish!” Li Ji’s icy-cold voice sounded out.
When everyone saw this scene, they were all silent like cicadas in winter.
Finished talking, Li Ji drove her mounted fierce beast and slowly rode toward the city.
Ye Yuan’s face fell and he said in a cold voice, “Scram!”
Lang Ge was stunned, only then, realizing that Ye Yuan’s sentence was said to him.
“Heh heh, our pretty boy got angry! I’m not scramming. If you have the capabilities … accept my challenge! Hahaha …” Lang Ge said with a loud laugh.
Ye Yuan said in a cold voice, “Since you’re seeking death, then I’ll grant you your wish!”
Suddenly, Ye Yuan’s body surged with fiendish energy, directly turning into an afterimage, charging over toward Lang Ge.
Lang Ge was originally still snickering. But the moment Ye Yuan moved, his expression could not help changing greatly!
Too fast!
However, Lang Ge was a grand completion Two-star Fiend General at any rate. His strength could not be underestimated.
His gaze turned intent. Raising an iron fist, he smashed over toward Ye Yuan.
Boom!
The two people collided together without any flashiness. Lang Ge’s body directly flew out backward, but Ye Yuan did not budge an inch.
When those few women saw this scene, each and every one of their gazes revealed an astonished look.
They all thought that Ye Yuan was a flower vase. Did not expect that his strength was actually so formidable!
Middle-level Two-star versus high-level Two-star, he actually occupied such a huge advantage!
Lang Ge’s figure had yet to land when Ye Yuan’s figure moved again!
Pfft!
Lang Ge’s head directly exploded; his fiend soul ground into pieces by Ye Yuan’s sword intent.
Under everyone’s astonished gaze, Ye Yuan put away the sword and slowly walked into the city.
Those fiend race women abruptly startled awake, all of their faces revealing incomparably besotted expressions as they swarmed over like bees.
“Goodness, handsome, no
t only are you good-looking, your strength is actually so formidable too! Truly the prince charming of my dreams!”
“This is a man! Lang Ge that weakling, a pewter spearhead that shines like silver; looks good but useless!”
“Handsome, you’re so strong! Hua Rong really loves you to death, leave with Elder Sister!”
…
Chapter 1476. Unexpected Encounter! |
“Get lost!”
Ye Yuan’s face fell as he yelled coldly to those few fiend race women.
An icy-cold killing intent spread out. Those fiend race women all turned white as a sheet, involuntarily retreating.
If it were before, they would definitely not take Ye Yuan’s berating seriously, but go over and flirt instead.
But now, Ye Yuan killed Lang Ge with two sword moves. Who would still dare to not take him seriously?
All the girls made way. Ye Yuan slowly walked past from the middle, heading toward the city gates.
Fiend race territory, killing people on the streets, this sort of thing, was very common. Those capital city guards could not even be bothered to give it a glance.
The fiend race was this kind of place; it was where the weak were prey to the strong until it was terrifying.
As long as you were strong enough, you could obtain respect.
If you were too weak, either submit or die; it was that simple.
Hence, Ye Yuan did not have the least bit of psychological burden regarding killing Lang Ge.
Ye Yuan was just about to enter the city when an old man suddenly blocked his path.
“Little Brother, our family’s master sees that your skills are pretty good and wants to invite you to join the Fan Family. I wonder what do you think?” The old man went straight to the point.
Ye Yuan swept a glance over him and said coolly, “Oh? What are the terms?”
Inside the fiend race cities, martial artists had to join a faction. Otherwise, they would be devoured until not even dregs remained.
Entering the city today, their corpse might be strewn on the streets tomorrow.
Two fists were no match for four hands. No matter how powerful one’s strength was, it could not match people’s numbers too.
In the capital city, there was no lack of Origin Deity Realm powerhouses. Even if it was Ye Yuan who ran into them, it would be certain death too.
The old man smiled and said, “Little Brother’s strength is outstanding, able to kill grand completion Two-star while being at middle-level Two-star. This level of strength, it’s naturally much better than other guest retainers. Our family’s missus said, as long as you agree to join the Fan Family, your treatment will be twice that of ordinary grand completion Two-star guest retainers!”
Ye Yuan was slightly surprised, but his gaze turned toward Li Ji who was on the fierce beast.
Li Ji seemed to have been paying attention to the commotion over here all along. Seeing Ye Yuan raise his head, a hint of a smile actually flashed across her face.
That look, that boldness, fieriness, fervor, made people unable to refuse!
“Tsk tsk, this fiend race woman really has another charm when she smiles!” Ye Yuan sighed emotionally in his heart.
Ye Yuan had to admit, this Li Ji was also not the slightest bit inferior compared to the human race’s unrivaled beauties.
Ye Yuan thought about it and said with a nod, “Deal! But I still have a condition!”
The old man smiled and said, “What condition is there, feel free to mention it.”
Ye Yuan said coldly, “I want five slaves!”
The moment the old man heard, he chuckled and said, “I was wondering what condition it was, even if you don’t mention this matter, we’ll also prepare it for you. The Fan Family’s guest retainers will each be assigned with three slaves. As for little brother, you, five is naturally no issue.”
Ye Yuan nodded his head and pointed to a middle-aged man in Li Ji’s squadron, saying, “Okay, but … this person, I want him!”
The old man turned around to look, his face could not help revealing a difficult look as he said, “This … Although he’s a slave, he’s one of Miss Li Ji’s guards and is deeply trusted by the young lady. This probably … isn’t appropriate, right?”
Ye Yuan grinned and said, “Heh, is this the sincerity you speak of? I know that your Fan Family’s strength is very powerful, but it’s also not to the extent where I have to go! Can’t meet eye to eye, so long!”
Done talking, Ye Yuan waved his hand and was about to enter the city.
Suddenly, a figure stopped Ye Yuan’s path. It was precisely Li Ji.
Her pair of beautiful eyes stared at Ye Yuan and said with a smile, “A mere demon race slave, what’s the harm in gifting to Sir? Since Sir likes him, just take him.”
In the fiend race, humans and demons could only be reduced to the lowest-ranking slaves, regardless of how powerful their strength.
Ye Yuan laughed loudly and said, “It’s still Miss Li Ji who is straightforward! Miss Li Ji, rest assured. You get what you pay for, Source Night won’t disappoint the young lady! It’s just that I got to have some errand boys under me and need a capable and experienced fellow to manage.”
Source Night was the fiend race name that Ye Yuan gave himself. It was just reversing the name Ye Yuan[1].
Ye Yuan this name was too different from the fiend race’s.
Li Ji smiled and said, “Li Ji understands! Sir’s strength indeed makes Li Ji very surprised. In the future, I’ll have to rely on sir more.”
Ye Yuan swept a glance around and said with a big laugh, “Did Miss Li Ji see their looks? For me to be able to do things by Miss Li Ji’s side, they are endlessly envious! Source Night is a guy too; to be able to serve Miss Li Ji, it’s my honor!”
But Li Ji was all smiles when she heard and said, “Sir Source Night really knows how to speak. Then let’s return to the Fan Family.”
The fiend race admired the strong. The strength that Ye Yuan displayed just now was taken into Li Ji’s sight fully. Plus, Ye Yuan’s looks were handsome, her fiend race woman’s personality also showed itself.
That cold beauty was like a blooming flower at this time.
The gazes that the surrounding people looked toward Ye Yuan with were full of envy.
In the entire Capone Capital City, those able to make Miss Li Ji laugh so happily were not many!
Clearly, Ye Yuan made her mood very good.
To be able to talk in a jovial manner with Miss Li Ji, even if they died, they were willing too!
Li Ji came before that demon race slave and said coolly, “In the future, you’ll follow Sir Source Night!”
The slave bowed and said, “Yes, Miss Li Ji. Long Zhan pays respect to Master[2]!”
Ye Yuan’s eyes narrowed slightly, a hint of an indiscernible smile appearing at the corners of his mouth.
Li Ji forced out a mark from her glabella, struck it towards Ye Yuan, and said, “This is Long Zhan’s slave seal. In the future, he’s yours.”
Ye Yuan smiled and said, “Many thanks for Miss Li Ji’s generosity. This chap looks rather smart. I settled on him at a glance.”
Li Ji smiled and said, “Sir Source Night has such sharp eyes. Among my guards, he’s the smartest.”
Ye Yuan had a pleased look too, accepting it calmly.
In the fiend race, modesty and whatnot would never be regarded as a virtue but would be beneath contempt instead.
With strength, then one could be arrogant, one could be lawless!
With strength, one could accept other people’s praises!
Strength was everything!
Ethical code and moral principles, these things, were all rubbish in the fiend race territory.
“Sir Source Night, let’s go back to the Fan Family!”
Li Ji rode the fierce beast and brought the group of people back to the Fan Family.
The Fan Family was one of Capone Capital City’s four great families. The clan’s strength was immense.
> Li Ji was the Fan Family’s beloved daughter, Capone Capital City’s top-rate beauty, admired by countless fiend race men.
However, Ye Yuan naturally wasn’t really charmed by Li Ji that he agreed to join the Fan Family.
In reality, Ye Yuan killing people in rage outside the city gates was deliberately displaying his strength for Li Ji to see.
Sure enough, after Li Ji saw his strength, she came to solicit him.
And the reason for Ye Yuan doing so was for this slave: Long Zhan!
When Long Zhan approached him, the Sacred Dragon Token reacted.
In the Heavenspan World, who could make the Sacred Dragon Token have a reaction?
The answer was already self-evident!
Ye Yuan did not think that coming to Capone Capital City, he could actually meet a person who could make the Sacred Dragon Token have a reaction!
[1] Although the pinyin looks the same, the characters are different. They just have the same pronunciation. In order to not confuse anyone, I decided to go for an English name rather than going Yuan Ye and Ye Yuan back and forth. This way, it’s clearer when he’s being addressed as a fiend.
[2] The Long in Long Zhan is dragon, hint hint.
Chapter 1477. Finally Solving the Mystery |
Returning to the Fan Family, Ye Yuan received the token representing a guest retainer’s identity. They arranged for his residence, and he also received a guest retainer’s salary as well as four slaves. Only then it was considered done.
Coming to the courtyard where he stayed, Ye Yuan got rid of his attendants, leaving behind Long Zhan alone.
The current Long Zhan was already much older than that clone Ye Yuan encountered in the land of inheritance.
Clearly, these few years of slave life changed him significantly.
If not for the Sacred Dragon Token reacting, Ye Yuan would not even recognize him.
As for that clone, it naturally withered away between heaven and earth. It was impossible for it to pass through the World Locking Gate and come to the Heavenspan World.
Ye Yuan sized him up with an amused look, making Long Zhan very uneasy.
In the fiend race, if the master was unhappy, they could take the slave’s life.
