Void Overlord

Chapter 46 : Call me Devil!



After Xiao Ying and her groups left, Shen Tian packed up and continued.

“Help! Don’t touch me~~~~”

But before Shen Tian walked far, a sharp scream came from the forest. That voice belonged to Xiao Ying.

At that instant, Shen Tian frowned, and after some hesitation, he went towards the direction of the sound.

At the same time, in an empty area in the mountains, an unbearable scene was happening.

The lackeys were shivering while standing on the side with faces full of fear. In the space in the middle, Xiao Ying was being toyed around by three men.

Those three people were aged twenty or so and their faces were extremely vulgar. But behind their body, a black iron sword was on their back. They were members of the Sword Group.

“Junior, no need to be afraid. We have no ill intentions and we just want to chat a bit with you.”

One of the males who had a full face of pockmarks was pulling on Xiao Ying’s purple clothes. One sleeve was already torn by him and it revealed her snow-white skin.

“Hehe, this is quite white, I like tender girls like this.”

The other two were also touching Xiao Ying’s body. Their eyes shined and they were already drooling from their mouth.

“We are from the same sect and I am even from the Xiao family. Aren’t you afraid that the elders will punish you if you treat me like this?” Xiao Ying’s face was already full of tears as she struggled without strength.

“Junior, we are protecting you. The elders don’t even have enough time to praise us so why would they even punish us?”

“That’s right, following useless people like them will only land you in more danger. It’s still better to follow us, and when the hunt ends, we will give you some rewards. Hehe…”

It was already night and the three of them were extremely lonely. Just at that time, they found a little sheep-like Xiao Ying. How could they let that chance go? Even if she from the prestigious Xiao family who would know what happened here?

“Seniors, please let our family’s miss go.” Xiao Goo, a servant of the Xiao family begged while trembling.

*whoosh*

Before even finishing his sentence, one of the Sword Group members pulled out his black iron sword, waved it at Xiao Goo, and a strong wind flew in front of Xiao Goo’s body.

*poof*

After that strong wind, a bloody wound appeared on top of Xiao Goo's chest and with a poof, his body got bisected into two halves as it fell into a puddle of blood. The crimson liquid spewed from his cleanly cut body seeping the dusty ground red as his innards and guts scattered around in that muddy soil.
*Dead*

“5th level of the Spirit realm.”

Seeing the scene, the other disciples crowd backed away from fear. To be able to use the wind like a blade and to kill Xiao Goo in one strike was, without a doubt, the cultivation power of the 5th level in the Spirit realm.

*blaaaargh* Witnessing such a bloody scene in front of her Xiao Ying couldn’t help but retch in disgust.
Though they are all cultivators and would be indifferent to a killing but Xiao Ying was but a pampered girl who was showed with praises all her life because of her status and never saw such atrocities.

“Get lost right now and I’ll let you people live.”, “ and remember never to speak of this otherwise...” The three men decided to let these people go as if they were to kill all the sect would definitely dig into this matter and that would be a problem but letting these people go would be easy as who would even dare to go against their Sword group and if they dared to leak anything they would be killed!

When that person pointed the cold, glittering iron sword at the others, killing intent was revealed in his tone.

As they faced life threats, the disciples and the others' feelings were shook and some people even started moving back.

Although Xiao Ying was their master, and they had mountains of favors towards the Xiao family, their choice was actually very simple when the decision related to their own life.

“All of you…” Xiao Ying’s heart had some unspeakable bitterness when she saw the servants and the disciples who followed her thinking about abandoning her. From a young age, all followed her orders let alone betray her and leave her to these evil guys’ mercy.

She wanted to scold, yet she was so helpless because she knew that she was already done for.

In the Extreme Martial Sect, she had both influence and power, but here in this desolate region and against the people that she could not fight off, even if she was tainted, she could only endure it silently.

*whoosh*

But just as Xiao Ying was despairing, a shadow leaped out from the forest like a monster and landed in front of Xiao Ying.

*bang bang bang*

After landing, that person attacked with lightning speed. Countless afterimages of the palm brought killing intent with them and they flew straight towards the three people from the Sword Group.

*whoosh whoosh whoosh*

It surprised the three Sword Group members when they saw such a sudden change. They tapped the ground with the tip of their toe and suddenly leaped back.

They focused their eyes and the three of them discovered that the person who surprises attacked them was a young man.

But the person who was the most astonished was Xiao Ying. She would have never thought when the people whom she trusted the most had thoughts of abandoning her, Shen Tian would be standing in front of her while ignoring his own safety.

“Who are you? You dare to interrupt my good occasion?” The Sword Group member who had a full face of pockmarks pointed at Shen Tian while angrily yelling.

“You are not fit to know my name, but you can call me the Devil.” Shen Tian faintly smiled.

“Devil? Ha!” The pockmark male moved the iron sword in his hands and countless of wind blades flew at Shen Tian.

Seeing that, Shen Tian pushed with one of his palms and a warm force pushed Xiao Ying out of the way.

After that, he quickly dodged, and after dodging the attack, he ran straight at the male and struck out with one fist.

“Brat, you’re looking for death.”

Seeing that Shen Tian even dared to counterattack, the other two Sword Group members also pulled out their iron swords from their back and stabbed at Shen Tian with some strange sword style.

*whoosh whoosh*

Not only did Shen Tian not dodge, he changed his attacking style, making the three iron swords collide into each other.

*clang clang clang*

Three heavy sounds resonated, and the four people stepped back a bit.

“Boy, we are complete strangers. You don’t need to offend our Sword Group for some people you don’t know.”

“That’s right. I see that you have quite some talent. As long as you are a bit understandable, we can give an introduction for you to join the Sword Group. I guarantee that your future will be bright.” Seeing that Shen Tian wasn’t as easy to take care as they thought, the three of them wanted to rope Shen Tian into their own Group.

Shen Tian didn't react as he listened to those words, but Xiao Ying instantly got more nervous.

She and Shen Tian had a deep history and Shen Tian didn’t even have any reason to help her. Now that the Sword Group opened such conditions, she was really worried that Shen Tian would put her to the side and abandon her.

But, she also knew that hoping Shen Tian would protect was beyond reason. However, the Shen Tian in front of her was her only hope.

“Sword Group? I think it’s better that it be called the Beast Group. Trash like you want to rope me into your Group? Ha!” Shen Tian fiercely spits a mouthful of saliva.

“You are forcing this upon us.” Seeing that the attempted roping failed and they got humiliated instead, the three of them got angry and while holding the iron sword, they all started to attack Shen Tian.

It was obvious that the three people used their true strength this time. The sword didn’t even arrive yet the wind did.

“What are you looking at gal? You don’t want to leave? Don’t affect my evil extermination power.”

Shen Tian yelled at Xiao Ying and the others first. Only then did his body move, and with the waves of the arms, countless invisible palms filled the air and attacked the three people.

“It’s a strange technique, careful.”

“Shen Tian…”
This technique was called the ‘primordial Buddha’s palm’ tho its power restricted.

As she saw Shen Tian battling with three experts at the 5th level of the Spirit realm, Xiao Ying’s emotions were extremely complicated. She knew what that meant. It meant that Shen Tian was risking himself for her, and that risk might very well cost him his life.

“Still not gone?” Just as Xiao Ying was hesitating, Shen Tian bellowed again.

“Miss, let’s go.” At the same time, the Xiao servants and disciples also came and dragged Xiao Ying into the forest.

“Leave me.” Xiao Ying flung away those people and deeply looked at Shen Tian with meaning.

Seeing the Shen Tian that was surrounded by afterimages of the swords and doing his best to struggle, Xiao Ying gnashed her teeth as if doing a very difficult decision.

“Leave!” Shen Tian bellowed once again.

At that instant, Xiao Ying’s frail body couldn’t help but shake, and two sparkling tears fell from the corner of her eyes. After saying a “thank you”, she went back into the forest.

Several moments later,
AfterXiao Ying and others left Shen Tian almost fell to the ground laughing.
“Hahahaha …" it was too difficult for him to control his laughter as he held to his stomach.
Seeing the boy who was giving them a tough fight a few seconds ago now laughing hysterically as soon as the girl and those people left they felt that the boy has gone mad with fear.
“Look now who’s afraid” those three laughed creepily,
”first we would torture you slowly by cutting your limbs, then we would feed your body to a spirit beast in the forest, hehe” the man with pockmark added.
“Of course! Boy even if you beg for mercy nobody would save you and remember to be respectful to your seniors in your next life” another one added.

“Heh”, Shen Tian looked at those three as if seeing something worthless
The atmosphere around him suddenly changed as the surroundings suddenly turned eerily quiet, it was as if the insects to have become silence. The three felt a cold wave gushing down their spines as they looked around...
“You guys like assaulting a weak girl don’t you ?” came a blood-chilling voice before them, when they all turned around to look the average looking boy was no longer there, in his place a being stood there.
It was 10 feet in height, numerous ancient runes and words engraved on its body ...its face cruel-looking as it looked towards them with blood-red eyes.

“D-d-Devil!!!”, a guy with a thin stature fainted on the spot.
“Ahhhhhhhh” the other two were too petrified in the spot, their feet wobbling as a puddle of water formed near their feet.
“Don’t you want to cut my limbs and feed it to beasts ?” the being spoke again, it was as if the sound of the deepest hell, the voice so ancient and terrifying that the two’s soul almost flew away.
“W-who are y-you?” the fat guy among the three-spoke with cracked speech

“Come I am standing before you, come and cut my limbs !”

“Ah, no ahhhh” the one with pork-mark face stumbled.
Even if their ancestors come and order them so confront the being in front they would beat them instead!

“This ...senior I was blind and failed to identify Mount. Tai,l-let me go I wouldn’t dare to show my face again” seeing himself in a dire situation the pork-mark left his friends and begged to let him go...

“Good! Since you guys are not coming amputate me! Let me do it for you “
The being moved his finger as the three flew towards the being.
He first held the pork-mark in his hand and looked towards him.
“l-let me go you fiend! My master is the elder of inner-sect !” seeing the being not leaving him, the poker-mark started threatening him.
“heh! Kekekekeke, well well well your master is inner –sect elder ?”
“YES! Yes!Yes! Let me go and when the sect captures you, I would ask my master to lessen your punishment”.
Thinking the being was intimidated the poker-mark boasted.’ Just I get away from here...then see what I would do to you’ the poker-mark thought
The being became silent as it suddenly tore away both the legs from the poker- mark like a broken doll.
“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!” a blood cladding scream rang throughout the forest...

The other two already fainted as they got jolted awake by the bloody scream.
Observing their leader being held in that being’s hand with his both legs missing and squirming in pain, they fainted again.
“Weren’t you going to cut my limbs? Not feel the pain of getting your limbs torn away “

********

Those three were played by that being until they broke like ragged dolls! Their mouths fuming of blood and liquids! But strangely there were no wails of agony... their souls were sucked away and tortured by that fiend as he destroyed their souls! leaving them no path to reincarnate!!!
The being threw away those mutilated bodies as if throwing away some garbages.

******
The moon shone on the ground again as the devil was no longer seen
“Hush! “ A sound came, it was Shen Tian as he soundlessly moved away from that location!

“........” Feng Yue too was quite afraid seeing this side of him, she was speechless.

Going deep inside the mountains,

“That is…”
Suddenly, Shen Tian’s eyes lit up. He had discovered an ancient temple in the deep of the forest.
After walking for a while, Shen Tian stopped again.

In front of the entrance to the temple stood a gate that read ‘Core of the Dragon’.
There was only a Human-sized Dragon Statue next to the Gate. The Dragon Statue was carved from gold and had a Crystal Ball in its mouth.
He walked up to it and looked at it carefully.

After a few seconds, he smiled and said to the Dragon Statue, “Hey, why have you been watching me since the moment I stepped onto this Continent?”

The Dragon Statue’s Crystal Ball glowed red, and in an ancient voice, it spoke in surprise.

“What a surprise, I did not expect that you were already aware of the moment when I locked my Divine Sense on you.”

“Looks like you’re more of a monster than I thought.”

“I am called Jin Long, the Ancestor of this Jin Long Continent!”

“I mean no harm to you and only watched you because of the aura around you.”

“The moment you stepped onto my Jin Long Continent, it startled me awake from my Millions of Year slumber…”

“I do not know why, but when I saw you, I had shivers down my spine.”
“I did not know if you were an ally or foe, so I kept my sights on you.”
“But by the looks of it, you do not look like you have any bad intentions.”
Shen Tian nodded and said, “I knew you had no bad intentions, or why else would I just quietly let you watch me?”

“If you had any evil thoughts, I would’ve already pulled you right out of there.” Although his voice was calm, it made Jin Long silent.

“Who are you? Are you even Human?” “I am a Golden Dragon in the Heaven Realm, yet…”
“I will admit it. You scare me.” He said.

Shen Tian giggled after hearing that.

“Hey, you’re the Ancestor of this Continent right? Why are you still here? Why not ascend?”
“…” Jin Long turned quiet again.
“I guess it’s fine to tell you. The four of us stayed behind to make sure ‘that thing’ will not revive.”
“Hoh, the four of you?” He sounded like he was interested in that more than ‘that thing.’
“….” Jin Long was speechless. Of all things, he asked him that?
“Although this is interesting, I do not have the time to chit chat here anymore.”
“….” Jin Long almost cursed.
After asking all that, he says he does not have time?!

“Hey, let’s forget about all that. Can I pass here? I only want to look around.” He threw away the previous topic like it was just a casual talk.

“….”

“Fine, you’ll find out sooner or later anyway. I am now looking forward to the future…but be careful inside the temple is something which I too never dared to disturb” The Crystal Ball stops glowing, and the gate opened.
Shen Tian still had a calm face, as if what just happened did not even matter. He moved forward, passing through the gates.
