Chapter 7

Practising was all good, however, Liu Fei wanted to ger some combat practising done as well.

For that, they went to Stormy Gorge a place where one can spar with another. Though the issue with this like any other Cultivation place is that arrogance and other stubborn madness runs deep.

Meaning that people who come here can certainly die very easily. Even though killing is forbidden. Arrogant people kill regardless because they believe their talent is great for that they won't be punished.

And mostly because Ordinary Disciples are someone who elders don't put much emphasis on.

They only care about Elites and Core Disciples. However, such blatant ignorance towards regulars makes alot of Ordinary disciples die.

Without even checking on their latent potential. Lin Feng only passed this because of the stupid trial he did with the drums.

'Now I wonder… will he even do it? He only did it because that tall and burly teen got hurt in a spar which was done because of Jing Hao, my first minion's older brother.' As Chen Long was thinking he observed his girl fighting with another dude in Ling Qi Layer. She was wasting his ass with her swift movement. Until eventually the guy surrendered.

This continued to happen several more times… until he saw something interesting. Both of them were in disguises Liu Fei was with her black hair and Chen Long was with his Necromancer get-up. His get-up and his chilly atmosphere are something that is keeping everyone away from him.

No one even approached him.

"Hmm?"

The teen Necromancer saw how many people were going somewhere.

"A battle soon to happen in Life and Death Arena!" One of the Ordinary Disciples said as the majority of cultivators rushed to see it.

"Fei Fei let's go see it."

He motioned for her to follow as they started to walk there.

What he saw, he immediately understood what was going on.

The tall and burly disciple was fighting against a guy with a fire spirit. This guy had a set-up ready. Some explosive powder which he ignited. This made the tall guy serious wounded.

Once the fight was over the other guy with the name Jing Hao said loudly that next to suffer is Jing Yun. The girl which was in that group.

This was all about the revenge for that Young Master which Chen Long has stashed away.

Sure enough, Lin Feng started to walk there. Even though he had his mask on his dressing style with a sword on his back is easy to notice and identify.

"No, just no. Fei Fei, give this pill to that burly disciple. I am going to deal with this." Chen Long said with a frown. No one is going to take away the spotlight for what he did. Jing Feng is his trophy and no one is going to say that otherwise.

After handing over the pill to his girl he started to walk towards the Life and Death arena, by walk he was walking through the air.

His actions got many eyes at him. Before Lin Feng can give his speech about killing Jing Feng, Chen Long released a torrent of energy which send the sword teen flying out of the arena.

"Listen up you little shit. You are a brother of Jing Feng, aren't you?" The Necromancer said with an annoyed tone.

His action brough quite alot of shock as the way he walked over AND the power he showed brought some fear to them.

There were three guys on the arena the tall burly guy, the lackey and the big brother of his first minion.

"...W-Who are you? Why Esteem senior is interfering in conflicts of juniors?"

"Senior? Do I look old to you little shit? I am sixteen and the guy who disposed of that little bug Jing Feng. Now you looking for trouble with people who have done nothing wrong?" As Chen Long said that he ended up standing in opposition towards those two fools.

Hearing how he got called 'little shit' and his little brother being called 'bug' made Jing Hao see red.

"You! So you admit that you killed my little brother?"

"Did I flinched? He was a greedy little bug. Wanting to hoard all the resources, forcing other peoples in the path of ferocious beasts. He was a joke of a cultivator and a disgrace to Yun Hai Sect."

Perfectly honest Chen Long doesn't give a fuck about any of this. He simply doesn't want Lin Feng to become protected by those Xuan Qi Layer experts.

If he is not protected then he won't be saved by them, those he would need to interfere with that Lin Qian nonsense as well. But that is fine he will be able to see what one of his future bitches looks like.

"You… I will kill you for this!"

Jing Hao already lost his reason while his minion was not sure about this at all…

The guy unleashed a torrent of Sword energy mixed with the sounds of roaring thunder.

'So he had Sword Spirit as well … not bad asset… however, now I can't kill him. It's not the right moment.'

To answer back at rushing energy Chen Long unleashed his Green Fire which overwhelmed the sword energy and rushed towards Jing Hao and his unlucky minion. Both of them were consumed by fire, but they dropped out of the arena to save themselves.

Once Chen Long was done with that he turned around and looked at the large burly man and his girl standing next to him. The guy was recovering rapidly after receiving the pill which was given by Liu Fei.

"...Senior…there was no need for you to interfere…" The tall guy said with an uncomfortable look.

"Jing Feng was my kill and no one will say it otherwise. Now Jing Hao knows that your group was not the one who did it."

However, as he said that Lin Feng appeared in the arena with his agility technique. He looked quite ruffled after being blasted off the arena.

"YOU! How dare you! I was the one who killed him!"

Once again Chen Long released a torrent of energy and blasted the idiot out of the arena. He has no time for this.

"Do tell your fool of a friend that my patience has limits." After saying that the pair left the life-and-death arena.

~~~~~~Later~~~~~~

In the next few days, the teen Necromancer continued his training and cultivation. He broke through to Fifth and then Sixth of Ling Qi Layer.

He slightly rushed his cultivation this time because of the plan he has cooked up.

The teen knows that the roc guy is going to come for a visit with his second target. The bitch Lin Qian. An evil beauty. Something he is itching to put his hands on.

He was thinking to allow Lin Feng to suffer at hands of Lin Qian but then he realised that he already started protecting for the sake of future entertainment so he will continue to do his protection this time as well.

For that to work, he needs the Sect Master to protect Lin Feng. And to do that he will use his Book of Wishes.

With a plan set in motion, he waited for that day to arrive. In the process, he worked on his plan to acquire Lin Qian. The roc guy by this point should be stronger than he is, around Late if not peak Ling Qi Layer or even early Xuan Qi.

To cross that gap Chen Long got his hands on an impressive Holy weapon tier Scythe and learned how to make soul chains.

The Soul Chain process is not difficult, once one senses his spirit while it takes time… by using Soul Qi to weave a rope in form of a chain. Once it's created it has to be kept inside his soul to nourish and empower it. The best part about soul chains is that only another soul-based attack could destroy it.

And since he was in such a backwater place such thing as soul-based attacks is not something anyone could just throw back at him.

So eventually that time was here. Liu Fei was not interested in this so she stayed in her cave to cultivate, his breaking through two layers has made her slightly desperate to catch up.

This was fine with him because he needs to do this alone.

As he arrived in the Stormy Gorge he looked at the Life and Death Arena, several people were standing there. This was his first time seeing older people in the cultivation world in person not counting the memories he inherited.

He can see classic elders of a sect kind of trope… it was hard for him not to start launching seeing them.

Not that he looked at them for long his gaze went to the distance as he saw a Roc, one of those legendary birds. This was the Martial Spirit of Chu Zhan Peng. The Young Master of the rival sect by the name Hao Yue Sect.

One would think that Chen Long was feeling any sort of guilt for thinking of disposing of Chu Zhan Peng but one would be wrong. One look at his face and you would want to kill it too. The guy had that creepy evil smile on his face all the time.

Not only that but he is the typical scheming villain. So, there is no any sort of guilt in Chen Long's heart. No, he only thought about this for a short time as his gaze went to the person standing next to this Young Master.

It was a beauty with red hair and golden eyes. Her beauty was that of a dark evil bitch. While she was evil for her, her family is quite important. She is here to get revenge for what Lin Feng did to her brother back in his clan. She wants to get revenge by any means and at this point, she is using her fiance's authority to cause trouble.

And her fiance is Chu Zhan Peng. The very same creepy smile dude. Not for long though.

After seeing from which direction they arrived Chen Long started to walk there. As he walked he summoned his Book of Wishes and wrote down his wish.

His wish is simple. He wants the Yun Hai Sect Master to cover for Lin Feng this one time. Nothing more nothing else.

Once he wrote it down he dismissed his book and proceeded to walk toward the direction where they will leave his sect after embarrassing denial.

He knows that it will piss them off so this will make him getting Lin Qian even easier.

~~~

A few hours later the Roc lifted off from the Life and Death Arena. The pair on the top of the bird were flying towards the same direction as they arrived at first.

Not long after they left they didn't notice four ghostly chains rushing from the forest and striking into the Roc. This instantly has frozen the cultivators in place!

"Who dares!? I am Chu Zhan Peng! The Young Master of Hao Yue Sect!"

"A pleasure."

A distorted voice said from the forest below before a wheel of Blackish Grey energy rushed into the frozen-in-place Roc.

Seeing the incoming wheel of pure Death the Young Master paled and summoned his cultivation to block the attack with everything he got.

'What is this Qi!? I have never sensed anything like this before!'

Chu Zhan Peng frowned deeply as he used all of his Qi to push this wheel back! Eventually, it stopped, what he saw was a weapon!

"A Scythe?" The Young Master was confused! So was her weary Fiance.

Then he saw a hooded man simply appear in front of him holding the same scythe!

'What speed is this!!?'

"Reaping of your soul has begun." It felt like these words had a magical effect of some sort!

That moment the young Master of the Hao Yue Sect felt that his world just turned grey and white, with him seeing the world from two different directions! It's like his left eye is seeing one angle, and the right is seeing another!

*SLASH*

Sound of a scythe cutting through the air spread as Chu Zhan Peng's world just turned into pure darkness. He was dead as his soul has been cut off his body.
