Unexpected Discovery

"Heh, you seem to have a tough head despite the lack of brain." Behind him Ling Che could hear Hannya's words, though he couldn't turn around because his head was caught behind he could tell that this person has a cruel smile plastered in his mouth.

How can he tell? It's because he's similar.

He likes toying with his opponent just for the sake of entertainment. The moment he realize that the only rule in this world is strength he stopped caring about others and only sought for improvement to stand at the peak of this world.

All that matter is who has a bigger fist.

"How long do you think your head can last?" Then Ling Che felt his entire vision falling backwards, as he felt the hand grasping his head tightened.

Everyone had their eyes wide open.

Emperor Realm experts are extremely rare, yet at this moment, the expert that they thought who will destroy the Nura Clan is unable to defend against the Supreme Commander of the Nura Clan.

"Aaarghaa…" Ling Che screeched crazily and struggled for his life. But Hannya's white jade hands, was incomparably firm, grabbing his head so tightly it was impossible to break away.

Ling Che was shocked as he discovered his profound strength was entirely suppressed by the power behind Hannya's grasp.

This is the first time he felt helpless. This foreign emotion of fear started to appear deep inside him.

"Ling Chu… help… me… quickly release me… you…" Ling Che's face contorted as he tried to bear the pain as he asked Ling Chu's assistance ; but to his horror he found the latter simply standing unmoved.

"Brother you just met your match, shouldn't you enjoy this thoroughly?"

Ling Chu only gave him a smile.

"You?!" Ling Chen actually showed fear as he watched his own brother turn his back on him. The previous pride and arrogance had disappeared completely to be replaced with un-surmounted fear.

Hannya observed the interaction behind Ling Che as his lips quirked up, "Heh, interesting. It seems like there's a backstory between you two. So you don't mind if I crush his skull?" Hannya eyes landed his eyes on Ling Chu as he asked.

"Not really." Ling Chu tried to hide his fears but deep within his heart he was absolutely terrified by this man. He can't tell what his cultivation level is, he couldn't grasp his true power; the more he thought about it, the more firm his decision has become.

Only stupid people would fight to their death despite knowing that they're no match. He didn't even tried to move as he know that he doesn't have any means to escape from this demon in human skin.

Unbeknownst to Ling Chu, His fear wasn't able to escape from Hannya's eyes. As a demon who feed on others negative emotion, it was extremely clear to him how terrified Ling Chu is.

Mist started to rise from Hannya's hands as his gripping power rose into a higher level. Bone cracking sound echoed amidst the silent atmosphere, time seemed to stop at this instant, becoming infinitely slow. It was clearly just an instant, yet it was like a century had passed.

Every person looking discovered that they could clearly see Ling Che's head exploded from Hannya's hands as blood rain and black mist bit by bit fragment, dyeing the withering forest with red.

"Oh my bad, you actually have a brain." Hannya joked as he circulated his profound aura to block everything, he doesn't want to dye his outfit with bloodstains.

The members of Black Phoenix along with Karasu Tengu watch Hannya with admiration apparent in their eyes.

Though it was completely different for the inhabitants of New Moon City, such monster without restrains; if they live with him it would be like living in the same place with a Devil.

Their lives could be reaped anytime, that thought alone was enough for them to tremble in terror.

The withering forest domain turned transparent as the Eastern part of New Moon City reverted back to it's original appearance, though there are lots of craters from the battles that transpired.

"So, what are you going to do now?" Hannya stood in front of Ling Chu with his hands touching his chin while absorbing the soul of Ling Che who was trying to escape.

Once someone reached the Emperor Realm they could always resurrect as long as they have their soul though it was unfortunate for Ling Che to meet an Ayakashi like Hannya.

As Hannya observed the androgynous young man with black long hair and red eyes, the system's notification sound suddenly rang in his head: "Discovered target, suitable to become a member under Nura Clan Banner."

Hannya was dazed for an instant, who would have thought that this man would be considered as an ally.

"Talent detector has finished organizing, target data."

"Profound Veins → 8; Comprehension → 8; Will → 6; Luck → 7."

"Conclusion: Target's talent in extremely high, recommended to take in as a clan member and carefully guide him, he will definitely become a pillar of the clan."

When he saw the conclusion Hannya's mouth curled up as he walked towards Ling Chu circling around him while doing a look-over up and down, "So what are your plans?"

Ling Chu allowed Hannya to observe, his gaze looking at this man was extremely complicated. He sighed lightly, "I can't go back to my clan. My comrades have been completely annihilated along with my brother while I alone live on. My outcome if I go back will definitely be extremely horrible."

The moment this words were out Hannya grinned, "Come with me. I have some questions to ask you. Don't worry I don't have any plans on killing you."

He gave Ling Chu a fleeing glance as he vanished on the spot and arrive in front of Gyuuki and Ddraig.

Good thing he arrived on time or else this two would definitely suffer in the hands of Ling Che.

"Oh Ddraig? what's wrong? you were beaten up?" Hannya teased the self-proclaimed Dragon Emperor.

"Beaten up? I was about to let him meet his creator when you suddenly arrive." Ddraig calmly replied, he already returned to his slim appearance.

The air pride around him was reduce to some extent.

Hannya let out a chuckle and then turned to Gyuuki, "Let's go. Lead the way."
