Super Devouring System 1

by Song Of Moon Does Not Fall

  Tonight, the Ye Clan was peaceful, but the Chen Clan was different.

  At this time, in the Great Hall of the Chen Family, there was a coffin, and the one who was quietly lying inside was the Young Master of the Chen Family, whose head had been smashed by Ye Xuan just now.

  And around this coffin sat the upper echelons of the Chen Clan.

  "Leader, this must be the doing of the Ye Family!" A Chen family member said on the side.

  The Chen Clan was one of the Four Large Families s in the Cloud City, and over the years, no one from the Chen Clan had been killed. But today, the nephew of the Chen Clan's patriarch had actually died.

  "I think so too, but Chen Song's death has many suspicious points."

  The Chen family's patriarch frowned. After pausing for a moment, he continued, "One, Chen Song was shot dead by the arrow. Two, the killer shot him from at least fifty meters away. Three, the Ye Family does not have any motive to kill Chen Song, could it be that the only reason is Chen Song hitting Ye Xuan's maid? "

  "Then the head of the family means that someone is going to blame the Ye family?" The Chen family higher ups said.

  "It's possible, but the Ye Family can't be completely unsuspecting. This could also be a trick the Ye Family used to confuse us!" Other than the three suspicious points from before, there was one more point. I, Lian Yun City did not seem to have a high level Warrior who use bow and arrow, and only relied on my spirit energy to condense arrows to shoot Chen Song. Chen Xiang was still frowning.

  Chen Song was his nephew and also one of the four prodigies of the Chen Family.

  When everyone heard this, they silently nodded their heads.

  Indeed, Lian Yun City seemed to have never heard of any experts who used bows and arrows.

  "Patriarch, even if the experts from the other clans practice archery, we don't know." "Besides, this killer could have come from somewhere else. What should we do?" someone asked.

  "We have to think carefully about this matter, but if you dare to kill a disciple of my Chen family, I will definitely not give you a break. Even if you have to dig three feet out of the ground, you have to dig out the murderer."

  As Chen Xiang spoke, he angrily turned his head and said, "You all send people to the various great families to investigate and see if there are any external Strongman s."

  "Yes sir!"

  The group of people all left.

  After they left, Chen Xiang didn't leave. He sat on the chair and muttered, "Dammit. Second brother will be back tomorrow. I wonder what will happen if he finds out that his son died."

  …　….

  On the second day, the news of Chen Song's death had also directly spread, spreading to the various great families, as well as the Ye Family.

  When they found out about this, Ye Zhang and the four clan elders were shocked. They hurriedly rushed to Ye Xuan's house.

  "Ye Xuan, Chen Song's death, was it you …"

  The moment Ye Zhang entered, he went straight to the point.

  At this time, Ye Xuan, Xue Qing and Liu'er were sitting in the courtyard drinking their morning tea. When Ye Xuan heard this, he was also stunned for a moment, before asking: "Chen Song died?"

  "Ye Xuan, our family did not say anything, did you kill him?" Ye Zhang asked.

  Liu'er, who was at the side, was also shocked as she turned to look at Ye Xuan.

  "No!" Ye Xuan shook his head.

  This reply disrupted Ye Zhang's thoughts, frowning he said: "Last night, when Chen Song was out, he was shot in the head with an arrow, killing him in one shot!"

  "It's good that he's dead. He deserves to die!" Ye Xuan replied indifferently.

  He was the one who killed them personally, but he still felt that it was better not to let Ye Zhang and the others know.

  "But why do I feel like you're the one who killed them?"

  Ye Zhang frowned, and continued: "According to what the people at the scene said, there were still two guards of the Martial Dao behind Chen Song, but he was shot and killed by a bow and arrow tens of metres away. His archery skill is so outstanding, that even a Warrior at the peak of the fifth stage of the Martial Dao was unable to react to it. That's why I'm guessing that the person who killed him is at least at the sixth stage of Martial Dao, and is proficient in archery, or perhaps has a fifth rank archery skill … "

  "Uncle, there is a limit to my suspicions. Firstly, I am not at the sixth stage of the Martial Dao, secondly, I have never touched a bow or arrow, and thirdly, I don't have a fifth rank archery martial art. Why would you suspect me?" Ye Xuan put down the teacup and asked slowly.

  Ye Zhang was also stunned.

  Indeed, Ye Xuan did not fulfill a condition, but why did he feel that Ye Xuan killed him?

  "Other than you, I don't think I've ever heard of anyone else wanting to kill Chen Song. Furthermore, your performance is too calm. " The First Presbyter of Family said.

  "Great Elder, is it that Chen Song is dead and I should be scared? It's not like I was the one who killed them! " Ye Xuan remained calm and collected.

  "You really didn't kill him?" Ye Zhang asked doubtfully.

  "No!" Ye Xuan shook his head, refusing to admit it even if he was beaten to death.

  Although Ye Zhang and the four clan elders felt that something was amiss with Ye Xuan, but the truth was that Ye Xuan did not have the ability to accomplish this, so they could only choose to believe it.

  After they left, before Xue Qingqing could even open her mouth, Liu'er quietly whispered: "Young Master, thank you …"

  "Silly girl." Ye Xuan only laughed, and did not say much.

  Chen Song's death had already spread throughout the entire Lian Yun City. The Chen family had also sent people to the Ye family, but they had all returned empty-handed.

  Ye Xuan originally thought that this matter would end like this, but on the third day after Chen Song's death, a letter suddenly arrived in his hands.

  "Who sent this?" Ye Xuan looked at the Ye Family guard in shock.

  "This humble one is also not very clear. The person who delivered the letter was only a errand runner, but he said that this letter was going to be opened by you personally, Young Master!" The Ye Family guard shook his head.

  "Alright, you may leave."

  Ye Xuan nodded.

  Ye Xuan felt that there shouldn't be anyone who would write to him, and furthermore, the letter in his hand did not write anything, which made him surprised.

  He opened the envelope and took out the letter. After he finished reading the contents of the letter, a surge of spiritual power gushed out and forcibly shattered the letter.

  "Young Master, what's wrong?"

  Liu'er who was sewing a set for Ye Xuan while sitting on a stone chair asked in surprise.

  "Liu Er, how long has Qing Qing been gone for?" Ye Xuan squinted his eyes and asked.

  "Sister Qingqing has already been gone for more than four hours. Young Master, could it be that something happened to Sister Qingqing?" Liu'er asked.

  Ye Xuan forced out a smile and said: "No, that girl wants to buy things but didn't bring money. She called me over, Liu'er, you stay at home, I was just about to go out and buy things for Young Master."

  "Yes."

  Liu'er nodded obediently and didn't think too much about it.

  Chapter 25 - Qingqing's disappearance

  Ye Xuan left the courtyard, but his expression was not very good.

  The letter that he received just now, although he did not know who it was, Ye Xuan knew that it was definitely from the Chen family.

  "Ye Xuan, if you want to save your little girlfriend, you have to come to the forest five miles north of Lian Yun City. Otherwise, I will play with her once and strip her in front of your Ye Family's gate!"

  This was the contents of the letter.

  After Ye Xuan finished reading, he was enraged. The Chen family members were actually courting death again!

  …　….

  After leaving the Ye Family, Ye Xuan left
Lian Yun City, and then rushed towards the small forest five miles north of Lian Yun City.

  It was already evening, and the sky began to darken.

  "I wonder who kidnapped Qingqing. What if it's a Warrior of the sixth or even seventh stage of the Martial Dao? Then I'll be in a difficult position."

  On the way, Ye Xuan kept planning in his mind.

  Right now, he was at the beginning of the sixth stage of the Martial Dao. If the opponent was also at the sixth stage of the Martial Dao, then he would be in danger. Furthermore, the other party still had Xue Qingqing as a hostage, so Ye Xuan had to think twice before taking action.

  "I still have 2 Devour Points on me, I can exchange it for a Explode Spirit Pill and fight it out with them."

  Ye Xuan suddenly thought of a Dan in the Devouring System.

  Explode Spirit Pill s were worth two points of Devouring, and were able to increase one realm in a short amount of time. They could also increase two realms occasionally. However, it can only be used by people who are at the seventh stage and below, otherwise it won't have any effect.

  Therefore, Ye Xuan could be considered to be in the middle of the sixth stage of Martial Dao.

  However, if the opponent was at the peak of the sixth stage of Martial Dao, then he wouldn't have much chance of winning.

  "Hmph, forget it, since he's already here, let's just settle for it. If he dares to touch a single hair on Qing Qing, even if I have to risk my life, I will still kill him!"

  Ye Xuan also did not think further.

  Since the other party wanted him to go there alone, he must have spies in the Ye Clan. If he were to inform Ye Zhang to send in his experts, Xue Qingqing might be in danger.

  Very quickly, Ye Xuan arrived at this forest. However, he deliberately made a detour to not enter from the main road but through the shrubs, to investigate first.

  The forest was not considered big, and there were no Demon Beast inside either, so normally no one would come in.

  Ye Xuan carefully snuck in, held his breath and focused as he moved towards the center of the forest.

  After he walked for a while, he heard someone's voice.

  "Reporting, Ye Xuan has already entered the forest alone!"

  Behind this voice, a man's voice came out, "You've come, looks like you want to see who I am. Ye Xuan, come out!"

  Clearly, this man was the one who had kidnapped Xue Qingqing.

  Furthermore, Ye Xuan recognized this voice as well.

  This person was indeed a member of the Chen family, and he was even Chen Song's father, Chen Qiang.

  "So it's him!"

  Ye Xuan's expression was not very good, because this Chen Qiang was a mid stage Martial Dao's sixth stage Warrior.

  "Ye Xuan, come out!"

  Chen Qiang shouted on the spot.

  Ye Xuan's expression congealed, he continued to walk forward, and before long, he saw two figures in an empty space.

  "As expected, it's Chen Qiang..." Ye Xuan recognized him at a glance, but the other figure was not Xue Qingqing, but a guard dressed in the Chen Family's uniform.

  Xue Qingqing, you're not here?

  "Ye Xuan, I know you are here, you want to ambush me? Quickly come out!"

  Chen Qiang continued to roar.

  "This Chen Qiang probably captured Qing Qing, but didn't bring her out of the city. He only locked her in a place. If I don't come, then Chen Qiang will kill Qing Qing when he returns. But, why would this Chen Qiang look for me? "I have no suspicions of him at all. Could it be that he wanted to drag me here to vent my anger because he couldn't find the culprit?"

  The more Ye Xuan thought about it, the more he felt that it was possible. Looks like he had no choice but to go out this time.

  Fortunately, Xue Qingqing was not here. Chen Qiang would not have any hostages in his possession. As long as he could kill Chen Qiang and force the Chen Family guard to reveal Xue Qingqing's location, it would be fine.

  "That Chen family guard should also only be at the fourth stage of Martial Dao. Hmph, watch me cripple your legs first!"

  Ye Xuan took out his black iron bow from the Devouring Space, and then stealthily pulled it open to full.

  "Buzz!"

  A Wind Chasing Arrow was fired.

  "Be careful!"

  Chen Qiang was at the middle stage of the sixth stage of the Martial Dao, and his senses were extremely sharp. He let out a loud shout, but the Chen family guard was unable to react.

  "Crack!"

  With a crisp sound, the Chen family guard fell to one knee. The arrow had already pierced through his kneecap.

  Immediately after, the sound of wind rose again.

  "Crack!"

  The other leg of the Chen family guard was also crippled.

  Thus, Chen Qiang was the only threat left.

  "Ye Xuan, so it was you who killed my son, and today is the day you die!"

  Even though Chen Qiang was a very tough person, it was only at this moment that he finally understood who had killed his son.

  "He's here!"

  Ye Xuan quickly exchanged his points for a Explode Spirit Pill in Devouring Space and swallowed the Explode Spirit Pill into his stomach. His spirit energy immediately rose by a whole level.

  Middle stage of the sixth stage of Martial Dao!

  "Dammit, only one level!" Ye Xuan cursed angrily in his heart.

  The Devouring System had explained that Explode Spirit Pill would sometimes level up two ranks in the Warrior, but that was a small probability.

  Ye Xuan, who had temporarily broken through to the middle of the sixth stage of the Martial Dao, immediately raised his profound iron bow and shot a Wind Chasing Arrow at Chen Qiang who was rushing towards him.

  "Stinking brat, I want you to accompany my son in death!"

  Chen Qiang shouted in anger, and easily dodged the Wind Chasing Arrow. After all, he was still at the middle stage of the sixth stage of the Martial Dao, and he also had the Chen family's fifth grade movement technique. His strength was not something an ordinary person could compare with.

  Ye Xuan took advantage of the fact that the opponent was rushing over and shot another few Wind Chasing Arrows, but he was still able to dodge them.

  In the next moment, Chen Qiang was about to appear before him.

  Therefore, he could only put away the xuan iron bow.

  "Kid, die!"

  With a loud shout, Chen Qiang arrived in front of Ye Xuan, raised his right fist, and aimed it at's head.

  "What a powerful attack! If I were to be hit in the head, I would probably faint or even die on the spot!" Ye Xuan's heart tightened, today, either he killed Chen Qiang, or he died in Chen Qiang's hands, so there must not be any mistake.

  Rushing Steps!

  's legs had long ago gathered spirit energy, and facing this punch, he immediately dodged to the side, then instantly took out a long sword from the Devouring Space.

  "Triple Slash Gale!"

  The sword suddenly appeared in Ye Xuan's hand, catching Chen Qiang off guard. Before Chen Qiang could react, the sword had already pierced into his flesh.

  "Pfft!"

  "Pfft!"

  "Pfft!"

  Chen Qiang was the first to be struck, and he was forced to take a few steps back.

  Chapter 26 - Fighting

  "Heaven & Earth Ring? I will kill you! "

  Chen Qiang held his stomach with one hand as greed flashed in his eyes.

  Although Ye Xuan's method was used for the Devouring System, to outsiders, this was the effect of the Heaven & Earth Ring. One Heaven & Earth Ring was a priceless treasure. Even if there was no enmity between Ye Xuan and Chen Qiang, the latter would choose to kill Ye Xuan.

  Ye Xuan originally aimed at Chen Qiang's heart, but the latter's left hand did not attack, so he could only stare at his abdomen. This Triple Slash of Gale also gave Ye Xuan a good start, because his attacks just now were extremely ruthless, the wound was very deep, as long as he delayed for a while, Chen Qiang's strength wou
ld definitely decrease.

  However, Chen Qiang was tempted by the Heaven & Earth Ring and wanted to kill Ye Xuan on the spot. That was why he instantly exposed his peak fighting strength.

  "Fierce Tiger Fist!" "Die!" Chen Qiang ignored the wound and threw another punch at Ye Xuan.

  However, Ye Xuan's Swift Charge was better than most Level 5 Martial Arts, so he dodged once again. At the same time, Ye Xuan raised his right hand and was ready to use Wind Three Stab again.

  "Humph!"

  Chen Qiang had become smarter this time. Although his brain was occupied by greed, but he was not stupid enough to get hit by Ye Xuan's attacks again. At that moment, he was also prepared to dodge Ye Xuan's three stabs.

  However, Ye Xuan suddenly stopped his hand after seeing his movement, and quickly retreated backwards. At the same time, the longsword in his hand had already disappeared, and what replaced it was a profound steel bow.

  "What?"

  Chen Qiang was shocked. By the time he had reacted, a Wind Chasing Arrow had already shot over.

  "Pfft!"

  The Wind Chasing Arrow pierced through Chen Qiang's body, causing blood to spurt out like a fountain.

  "Haha, Devouring Space can actually still be used like this, let's see if I can kill you or not!"

  Ye Xuan was both surprised and happy, this was something that he had just discovered, a close-combat sword, and a long-ranged bow. With these two combined, even Chen Qiang could not do anything to him.

  "I want you dead!" After being struck twice, Chen Qiang's anger soared as he rushed towards the selection.

  "Gale Chop!"

  The xuan iron bow changed into a long sword and suddenly hacked at Chen Qiang's body.

  "Bam!"

  The [Gale Chop] was blown away by Chen Qiang's punch. The difference in the intensity of their spiritual energy wasn't too great. Thus, Chen Qiang was pushed back by the shockwave caused by the explosion of his spiritual energy.

  "Eat another arrow of mine!"

  Taking this opportunity, Ye Xuan released his bow once again. The Wind Chasing Arrow mercilessly pierced through Chen Qiang's shoulder, causing him to be injured once more.
