1 Plague God Of Holy Spirit Village

Douluo Continent, southwest of Heaven Dou Empire, Fasino Province, Holy Spirit Village.

In the early morning, when the sky was getting bright, roosters crowed one after another, waking many up for their daily work.

North of Holy Spirit Village, in one of the Village's most remote places, is a small courtyard.

As the roosters crowed, a boy who was about 5-6 years old and lying on the roof of the courtyard slowly opened his eyes.

If anyone else was here, they would be surprised to find that the moment the boy opened his eyes, his eyeballs were all black, without a trace of white.

(T/N: MC's eyes are completely black, without the slightest white, imagine Ichigo's eyes when he is in Hollow Form, and then colour the entire eye black. That is MC's current eyes)

The child's eyeballs are as black as ink, giving off a very strange and scary feeling. There is even a faint black air around the eyes, terrifying man and beast.

This weird scene only lasted for a moment as the eyes returned to normal, the white coloured sclera reappeared, as if they were never gone in the first place. The boy looked at the brightening horizon and stood up.

His short black hair was neat, as if the boy cared a lot about his appearance and tidiness. His skin is slightly pale, and his gaze is extremely sharp, pressuring any person he faces.

Suddenly, a light flashed in his eyes, he caught a glimpse of a small figure leaving the Village and heading towards a hill in the distance.

"That kid Tang San went to the hill to cultivate again. Who knows what level he has reached in his Mysterious Heaven Technique, but counting the time, Su Yuntao should be coming soon." The boy on the roof muttered to himself.

As he spoke, the sharpness in his eyes disappeared, and his gaze became piercing instead.

The boy's name is Jiang Chen, a child from Holy Spirit Village, contrary to what one would think about the handsome boy, he has a bad and the worst reputation in all of Holy Spirit Village.

Everyone regards him as something like a snake and scorpion, they fear and avoid him, some even gave him the nickname: 'Broom Star' and 'Plague God'!

(T/N: 'Broom Star' is a name given to something inauspicious, something that has a bad omen and brings bad luck)

All things close to him, even livestock, will not end well.

...

"Time to get working!" Jiang Chen stretched, causing his bones to pop and crack, a wicked smile appeared on his face. He jumped down from the few metres high roof and landed gently like a cat, he was unharmed after the ordeal. If someone saw this, their jaw would drop in shock. How could a 5-6 year old child jump down a roof and then get up as if nothing happened?!

For a 6-year-old child, it is incredible to be able to even climb onto the roof, let alone jumping off it and getting up safe and sound!

Patting the dust off his clothes, Jiang Chen began to hum a few songs to himself when he suddenly caught a glimpse of something in the corner of his yard. Two of his plump pheasants in his chicken coop were lying on their side, unmoving.

"My chicken!" Jiang Chen yelled in pain, he stepped out and was already in front of the chicken pen.

He stretched out his hand and fiddled with the two pheasants, their body was hard, he was sure that they were dead for some time already.

"What a waste." With a painful expression on his face, he reached out and touched the two chickens.

Strangely, a faint black mist began to gush out of the two chickens' bodies, it converged towards his palms before finally submerging into his body.

As the black mist gushed out, the two pheasants that were fat suddenly became skinny, as if they had been air-dried.

Jiang Chen expertly carried the two corpses and walked outside. Behind him, you would notice something strange about the yard.

Inside the yard, you will fail to notice any grass or anything living growing there for that matter! The earth was so dry that countless cracks had appeared on it, the yard was without a trace of vitality, making the courtyard incompatible with the rest of Holy Spirit Village.

Whether it was the death of the 2 pheasants or the strangeness of the yard, all of it was caused by him.

Few things can withstand the breath and Qi he inadvertently exudes. Weaker creatures will directly die while stronger and more resilient creatures will suffer a serious illness and calamity. Even the earth is no exception.

His titles, 'Plague God' and 'Broom Star' are derived from this...

Although he had lost 2 chickens, Jiang Chen remained optimistic, he soon let go of his unhappiness and buried the two chickens outside the Village, hoping they rest in peace.

After doing all this, he did not go home, instead, he ran towards the river not far outside the Village. Since the two pheasants he caught yesterday are dead, he must catch a few fish to feed himself.

Currently, he is a growing, handsome child, naturally, he needs a lot of nutrients and energy! He does not want to be like that silly Tang San who just buries his head in cultivation and leave his body to suffer.

Compared to Tang San's thin body, Jiang Chen is packed with muscles and is well-developed in all areas, even 'down' there.

He was familiar with fishing in the river, half an hour later, he walked back with 2 large fish in his hand.

The fish he caught were very big and fat. He held it with a makeshift spear he had pierced through its head with. He held the fish away from his chest and high in the air, preventing them from making his clothes and himself by extension dirty as well as preventing the fish he had caught from dragging onto the ground.

When passing by the hill where Tang San was cultivating, he paused as he had happened to run into Tang San who had come down from above after ending his cultivation session.

"Hi, Tang San!"

Tang San also saw Jiang Chen from a distance, when he heard Jiang Chen calling him, he forced a smile onto his face.

"Jiang Chen, you are early as well!"

Jiang Chen walked over and approached Tang San, but Tang San's small face twitched, he took several steps away from Jiang Chen.

"Don't, don't come over." Tang San waved his hands again and again, with a trace of fear in his eyes.

This is because not only the adults, even children and livestock in the Village have suffered from Jiang Chen's poisonous and unlucky hands, he too almost died from them, he, who possesses the Mysterious Heaven Technique and its Internal Qi's protection!

He recalled that incident when he felt a sudden cold and chilling Qi radiate from Jiang Chen's body, that Qi burrowed straight into his body. If it were not for his Mysterious Heaven Technique's Internal Qi and protection, he would have suffered a serious illness and might even be dead by now! Even now, every time he gets close to Jiang Chen, he gets that feeling again! As if the slightest careless can end him!

The most damning thing is that one morning when he was about to go up to the hill to cultivate like usual, he found Jiang Chen sneaking down the hill, he caught him red-handed in whatever he was plotting and whatever he had done.

After he went up the hill, his face had almost permanently deformed from fury! The hill is only 100 meters tall. However, after Jiang Chen walked on it, the hilltop and around 20-30 metres of flowers and trees, had all become withered and yellow, as if someone had stolen and devoured all their vitality.

During that time, the gain he had from cultivating was much less than before, it was not until a few months after Jiang Chen's visit that the hill had recovered.

Jiang Chen curled his lips, he knew that Tang San remembered the incident at the hill again.

He swears, he did not mean it. At that time, he wanted to see what a magical thing was in a place that the protagonist cultivates, as a result, he tried cultivating there, accidentally, his Qi escaped and ravaged the area around him, causing the trees and flowers to wither.

He was somewhat embarrassed for ruining someone else's cultivation place for no reason.

"I caught a few fish, you want one?" He did not continue to approach Tang San, he threw a fish over to him.

Tang San quickly stretched out his right hand, accurately grabbing the stick holding the fish, the large fish weighing almost 10 catties was steadily held up by him.

(T/N: 10 Catties= 6 KG)

"Thank you," Tang San replied.

Currently, the pair were only 5 meters apart, Jiang Chen's black jewel-like eyes suddenly lit up, his aggressive eyes fixated themselves onto Tang San's healthy neck, he couldn't help but swallow his saliva when he saw it.

He could hear the blood flowing in Tang San's body, he could see the arteries and veins on Tang San's neck pulse and beat, he found the sound they made and rhythm they were playing very wonderful.

Tang San observed Jiang Chen's sudden change, his hair stood up and he got goosebumps, a chill rushed from his spine to his neck, instantly making his scalp numb.

"Jiang Chen, I have to go and make breakfast, I'll be leaving first." Before Jiang Chen could say anything, Tang San was 10 metres away, carrying the large fish, he fled back to Holy Spirit Village and was gone in the blink of an eye.

"Damn it, why did I get hungry again?" Jiang Chen muttered, wiping his sparkling saliva that came out the corner of his mouth, he hurriedly operated his Technique to suppress his desires.

If Tang San and his father found out what he truly was, he would probably be smashed into a pulp with one hammer.
