759 14.35 Last Violet Star – Th Crown Prince and the Black Viper.
Right above the underground ancestral mound of the Lu Clan, ever since Chun Hongyun-Jun had engaged in a fight with the devil who nad himself Tanlan, the rest of the Sect Leaders had also dived down to fight.
Chun Hongyun-Jun is fighting Tanlan directly. The devil’s servants were blocked by Sect Master Yun Huaxia and Sect Master Bai Qiyin while the three huge creatures were kept occupied by Sect Master Lu Er, Sect Master Jin Baihua, and Crown Prince Hong.
Even though the crown prince himself wanted to fight the high-ranking devil himself, his current cultivation wasn’t enough. Just when Tanlan, this devil who wears the vessel of the fifth prince, blocked the sword of Chun Hongyun-Jun, one that was covered in sword intent with his bare hands, ant that this devil is indeed a being that is at least in Soul Transformation Stage or Early Ascension Stage. Only soone like Chun Hongyun-Jun is able to contend with him.
Within a few minutes, the whole forest was destroyed with just the exchange of moves from Chun Hongyun-Jun and the Devil Tanlan. Low-ranking monsters had imdiately turned to shreds under the pressure of two strong beings. Especially the sword intent splashes caused by Yun Xiajie’s sword techniques.
Hard by the waves of sword intent splashes, “KRIEEK! Watch it!” complained the Devil Bat monster who was fighting with Sect Master Lu Er.
Sect Master Lu laughed at his opponent sarcastically and said, “Hahaha! Stupid bat... You can’t even dodge so sword techniques and you dare to co to the mortal realm to feast on humans.”
“Damn you! You ugly human. You don’t even fit to enter my mouth!!!” scread the Devil Bat monster.
Not far from them Sect Master Jin Baihua was unfortunately the one who ended up fighting the giant cockroach. He was annoyed and disgusted to the max that he keeps waving his sword wanting to kill the monsters as soon as possible.
He keeps muttering the words, “Disgusting. Disgusting. Disgusting. Die! Disgusting. Disgusting. Disgusting. Die! Disgusting. Disgusting. Disgusting. Die! Disgusting. Disgusting. Disgusting. Die! Disgusting. Disgusting. Disgusting. Die!”
.....
The Giant Cockroach keeps buzzing due to its wings flapping unstop. Kriek! Buzzing~ shrieks~ Buzz!
“Human. Humans. I’ll eat you!” said the giant cockroach to Jin Baihua.
Sect Master Jin Baihua had long lost his temper due to anger and hatred. Lu Er and the Crown Prince intentionally left the most nauseating monster for him to fight. A few minutes ago, he wasted his ti trying to attract Sect Master Yun Huaxia’s attention and was late to pick his opponent and could only fight the leftover one which was the giant cockroach before him.
The Crown Prince on the other hand was fighting a huge black viper. Its attack was composed of bite, poison, and acid. He could hardly get closer to it due to the poison it would spit from ti to ti. But for so reason, he feels that all of those attacks were off-target.
Regardless of his fighting, he would never forget to peek at the battle between Chun Hongyun-Jun and the Devil Tanlan. The vessel the devil was using is still his young brother’s body so he couldn’t help but instinctively worry about him.
The huge snake spoke all of the sudden and said, “Are you worried about him? That is only a vessel the soul had been long sacrificed when his highness had taken over.”
“Are you not going to fight with ?” asked the crown prince as he noticed that the huge black viper in front of him wasn’t interested in fighting like the others.
The black viper said, “No. The only reason I ca out is that I’m an outcast to my tribe. Most vipers in inferno had lava veins on their scales but I was born without those lava veins. My tribe threw out as a sacrifice for this journey.”
“Journey? You didn’t co voluntarily with that devil?” asked Crown Prince Hong.
“No. There is a strict hierarchy. There are no rules in Infernal Realm except ‘Survival to the fittest’. The weak had no right to defy the strong. As one of the seven sins in Inferno, Sire Tanlan’s commands cannot be rejected. He ordered three tribes to accompany him to the mortal world. Our Snake Tribe happened to be chosen among the tribes.” said the black viper.
Crown Prince Hong asked, “Why are you telling all this? Aren’t I your enemy?”
“I don’t care. We are just pawns of Sire Tanlan and destined to die here. If there is soone that happens to co here that is able to threaten the life of his highness. He would sacrifice us and those twin servants of his to open a space portal to escape this weird barrier. He had already made preparations,” said the black viper.
The suicidal black viper said, “Well~ whether you wish to believe it or not will depend on you though. Anyway, don’t fight with . I’m sleepy~ yawns*”
After saying those words the huge snake curled it into circles and hid his head at the center and went to sleep as he said. He ignored Crown Prince Hong and didn’t even mind him if he decided to attack him. Those black scales of his were thick and hard to break. For Hong Longqing who is only at the Golden Core stage trying to physically harm a viper race of the sa level would be a bit hard to do so.
Bewildered as he is, Crown Prince Hong sheathed his sword and sat down on the sleeping viper. He had a special skill of intuition. He would know if one is lying or not. After observing the black viper during their conservation he learned that this giant snake was not lying at all.
The two bystanders watch the scenes before them.
Crown Prince Hong asked, “Do you think Chun Hongyun-Jun could kill your leader?”
“...Hm~, hardly... His highness is only using his strength as soul transformation cultivation but he is at least at the ascension stage. Both of them perhaps but... Demigods can not utilize their strength in the mortal world. Only descended gods can...” said the black viper.
Crown Prince Hong said, “That’s too bad then. I at least wanted to bring back my brother’s body ho.”
“Actually... I do not know what happened to your brother’s soul. The tribe says that the chosen vessels of the Sins were all sacrificed. Maybe there is a possibility that your younger brother’s soul is still alive. Didn’t the sa thing happen ten years ago...? Did you know what happened to that human vessel’s soul?” asked the black viper.
Crown Prince Hong was confused for a mont. He is from the younger generation even though his standing is above those of the sa age there is no way he would know the details of that huge thing in the past.
“Are you talking about that cultivator from the (Blue Fleeting Cloud Sect) Lan Zhuayun Sect? I heard he is a unique existence that can wield both the elental qi and resentnt qi. So he becos a devil’s vessel?” asked Crown Prince Hong.
The black viper said, “You don’t know? One of the Sins was killed because of that event. The Sin of Envy. His highness Jidu died that day. It wasn’t originally that man who was the first vessel. He is actually the second one. He absorbed Sire Jidu into himself and let his beloved kill him. This is to save the first vessel and save your world. He is quite a sacrificial figure.”
“First vessel? Second vessel? They can change the vessels of those devils?!” asked Crown Prince Hong in shock.
The black viper said, “They can... Vessels get old as long as they are humans after all. They would change vessels every hundred years. But his highness Jidu’s case is different. That human had absorbed his soul fragnt himself and no one knew how he had done that. For the details, I think that the human cultivator you guys call Chun Hongyun-Jun knows. He is after all the human lover who killed his beloved to save this world.”
“WHAT!? IS THIS TRUE!?” scread the Crown Prince in astonishnt.
He never expected that the strongest human cultivator in the world would be involved in that big event more than ten years ago. No one believes that he had done such a thing. As his love for his chosen other half was extrely infamous in the cultivation circle. He had also witnessed that scene at that banquet where he had cut off soone’s tongue for teasing him about how intimately that person called his na.
To call him obsessed must be the right thing, as he also knew that Chun Hongyun-Jun believed that his beloved would return to him all this ti.
Sect Master Lu Er, Sect Master Jin Baihua, and their enemies had seen the two of them resting like passersby at the sideline. They couldn’t help but stare at them. In disbelief.
“Crown Prince Hong! Your Highness! Have you defeated that giant snake?” asked Sect Master Lu Er curiously.
Sect Master Jin Baihua snorted and said, “Is our great crown prince that powerful? Even the Sect Masters of our own clans are having a hard ti fighting these monsters. What can a youngling like him do?”
“At least he doesn’t prance around acting like a bitch in the heat trying to steal soone’s Dao Companion. Give up already! Big Brother Yun only likes Bai Ying,” said Sect Master Lu Er.
Sect Master Jin Baihua shouted, “Shut up! What a single dog you know!!”
“Excuse !? You are a single dog yourself!!!” retorted Sect Master Lu Er.
Crown Prince Hong’s thoughts, ‘I am one too though...’
Seeing that the attention of the two Sect Masters had been removed from the Crown Prince’s direction, Hong Longqing whispered to the black viper.
Crown Prince Jong Longqing said in a low voice.
“Hey... I don’t want to kill you, can’t you leave this huge body and turn small or sothing? A duplication technique or sothing...”
“It’s not that I can’t but... I had nowhere to go.”
The Black Viper is an outcast himself and he had no intention of continuing living when he was chosen by his tribe to be a sacrificial pawn for the Devil of Greed, Tanlan.?????e???????????el. ??o??
The Crown Prince, as if knowing what the snake was thinking, said, “If you have nowhere to go just co live with . Even though I look like this I am still a prince. I have my own Palace and it is good enough for us to live together. Moreover, you can beco a human right?”
“I can but...”
“Then there is no problem. Beco small and hide in my robes. If we leave your huge body here then they wouldn’t think of anything. In your human form, I will give you an identity so you can continue staying by my side.”
“You are too naive. What would you do if I suddenly decided to eat you. You might regret it soday. Even my own tribe treats as a jinx,” said the Black viper in disbelief.
Crown Prince Hong said, “I don’t care. You are the first friend I’ve made in my life. I will protect you if you decide to co with . If not then... I think Chun Hongyun-Jun would really kill you as you wish. You don’t have any other plans instead of dying anyway, why don’t you try living for until you get bored.”
Sigh~
The Black viper said, “Humans are really sentintal beings. Even pitying a monster like . Okay, I shall temporarily agree with you. Open your sleeves. I will crawl up in my small form. Then you threw so attacks in this body to leave proof that we had been fighting.”
“What to do? My sword can’t even scratch your scales,” said Hong Longqing.
The Black Viper said, “Don’t worry. I have the so-called reverse scale. That’s the main weakness we the snake race possess. Mine is at...”
“Are you crazy? Why are you telling your weakness...!?”
“Whatever... Just do it or... Leave here to die... I don’t care either way.”
“Sigh~ you suicidal snake!”
“Shut up! You little baby!”
While the two are busying themselves with their own plans, the others are still in the midst of their fight. They did not even notice that two on the sideline doing sothing else different from what they were doing.
