CHAPTER 24 FIGHTING SOUL SECT

A small bonfire was burning by the side of a yellow road and a big man was sitting on a long log.

"Why is it taking this long? They should be here by now."

He said while looking at the yellow road 

'Wait for one more hour and go look for them.'

Yao Yang thought.

"Are you waiting for someone?"

A voice came from the side, a figure in black with blindfolds was sitting on the other side of the log.

'When did he come? I didn't even feel his presence and he was sitting this close to me.'

"Yes, waiting for my companions. Theyshould be here soon."

Yao Yang replied in a flat tone, he didn't question him for sitting at his place without his permission because he was waiting for the upcoming battle and don't want to invite any potential danger.

"Are you waiting for Yao Tian?"

"How did you know."

Yao Yang was surprised as some stranger knew about their plan.

"You planned all of this, and didn't know how I look?"

"You are Huang Yong?"

Yao Yang said while distancing himself from Huang Yong.

"Where is Yao Tian? How did you know about our plan?"

"From how surprised you are I can guess that what happened was not in your plan and you were betrayed by your son."

"Answer my question."

Yao Yang said in an angry voice

"Your son attacked in the middle of the trip and tried to kill me, this is how I know that this was a plan, as for where your son is you should get the idea."

"He tried to kill me but I am still alive and talking with you."

"You killed my son, and you still had the guts to appear in front of me. Don't even think about leaving this place alive."

"I came here to reunite you with your son, I don't like to leave rats behind"

"A small soul master dares to threaten a soul sect, you are very arrogant."

"Arrogance needs strength and I happen to have that."

"We will see about that."

Yao Yang activated his martial soul, and a bronze axe appeared in his hand.

One white, two yellow and one purple soul rings were rotating around his body.

Huang Yong's face was as calm as always

'He is not showing any panic, is there someone in the dark protecting him.'

Yao Yang thought and looked around 

"Don't worry there is no one in the dark, I am here alone."

"You are a fool for telling me this, now die."

[FIRST SOUL SKILL - CHOP]

'System 70% strength.'

An axe and a fist collided,

Boom…

Both of them took two steps backwards

"You are really strong without even using your soul rings you can defend my attack."

'He is strong, must be from some sect and is trying to test his limits using me as a stepping stone.'

Yao Yang looked around with some vigilance,

'His protector should be around and will attack me as soon as he loses to me.'

'Must finish him off in one move, my death is already a forgone conclusion.'

[FOURTH SOUL SKILL - SKULL SPLITTER]

The bronze Axe grew twice as big as before and fell on Huang Yong with great force.

[SOUL BONE SKILL - FIST OF TITAN]

Huang Yong's left hand gave off a yellow aura and he punched at the falling axe.

Boom….

With a loud sound, the axe and the fist collided 

Shatter…

The axe shattered, Yao Yang flew and fell at a distance, 

Splatter…cough…

"How is this possible, cough bah…"

He said in disbelief as he could not call out his martial soul.

"Your martial soul has been shattered and it will not come out till it heals, usually takes more than 3 days."

'No I can't die here, I have the potential to become a king, I must survive.'

"Little friend this was all a big misunderstanding, you see I was not me who planned all of this, I had no idea that they would attack you."

"So all the attacks just now were misunderstandings."

Huang Yong said while walking towards him.

"Little friend any father will go mad if he listens about his son's death, I'll compensate you."

"Make sure not to misunderstand in your next life."

Huang Yong placed a hand on the shoulder of Yao Yang and sent a little soul power to his heart.

Baah…

Yao Yang's heart burst and he died vomiting blood.

"Letting you have a whole body is a big favour I am doing you for all the good things you have."

Huang Yong removed the bracelet from Yao Yang's hands 

'System identification.'

'So they come in pairs, Yao tian must have recognised mine while fighting with me.'

Huang Yong sent a little soul power in and recognised the owner.

Taking out a jade box from inside and opening the box.

'He does have rest of the plant.'

Huang Yong said while looking at the pure white flower with a black and green body, he had found a leaf similar to this plant on the body of Yao Tian, it was the reason the soul beasts got attracted.

'If I'm not wrong this is at least half a step immoral plant.'

Huang Yong activated his left eye

[THE NIGHT HEAVEN - NOT MATURE YET]

It was written in black and red 

'Definitely an immortal grass, bad thing not mature yet.'

After putting back the plant he searched the things stored in the bracelet.

Most were herbs, gold coins and some old medicine books.

"These books should belong to the last owner of this bracelet and Yao Yang should have got all his medicinal knowledge from these books, good thing."

Huang Yong put the bracelet on his other hand and now they looked like they were part of his gauntlets.

*********************************************

Early morning 

Huang Yong's Haima City residence 

On the training ground, a big man was practising knives and doing all sorts of physical training.

"You didn't stop training when I was not here, you are hardworking."

A voice came and startled Xiao Feng 

"Boss!"

"Boss, you returned so soon, is the mission done?"

"Somethings happened and the mission got cancelled, worry not about these things prepare me a big breakfast."

Huang Yong entered the house after commanding.

"Seems like boss is in a bad mood, should I ask Axe master about what happened? I better don't interfere."

Thinking for a moment Xiao Feng moved to prepare breakfast

After taking a bath and having breakfast Huang Yong entered his room and fell asleep.
