Yama Emperor

Long Chen was quietly cultivating when suddenly he sensed danger.

He quickly peeked out of the cave to see the Ling Clan people.

'Shit these bastards are like maggots, Do they have a way to track me down'

"Long Chen come out we know you are in that cave."

Knowing that feigning ignorance is not gonna work Long Chen got out.

At least 20 men were surrounding him, with 2 at late qi condensation. If a fight broke out he had no chance in hell, especially considering their heavy armor.

Noticing a talisman in the leader's arms Long Chen came to a realization.

"Oh so you had help from the bastards Long Clan at imperial capital"

The leader's name was Ling Hou he was a very obese man with scars on his face.

He was known for his sadistic nature and seeing Long Chen who was a noble son being against the wall gave him euphoria.

"Hahaha not bad brat you are smart enough," Ling Hou said while showing his perverted smile.

"Tch are you not afraid of a full-blown war between our factions "

"Hahaha who would know we killed you here in fact the clan would heavily reward us "

While saying that all Ling Clan members started laughing and some even had tears in their eyes wondering how stupid this boy can get.

"The Clan would certainly be happy, but all of you might be executed or imprisoned, because this information is too confidential. Most of you are below late qi condensation so you should know your worth"

Saying that Long Chen flashed them a toothy grin and, just as he expected except the leader the rest of them started having sweat cover their faces, and were having second thoughts about killing Long Chen.

Seeing This Ling Hou heavily snorted.

"Brat you may have a silver tongue but nobody is gonna save you today"

Long Chen also had a solemn expression, he knew he had bought as much time as he possibly could.

All of a sudden Long Chen looked to his right and his expression changed.

'A nascent soul'

A red-colored Massive beam was headed towards Long Chen and the gang.

At its center seemed an illusionary-looking man.

He had Long Black hair till his waist, along with a long Black Beard.

His face was showing a gruntled expression and his teeth were grinding against each other, Just looking at his eyes may cause an ordinary cultivator to shit his pants. There were many deep wounds all over his body such that even his bones were showing, The only difference being that they were purple and somewhat illusory.

"Jiejie boy your body is barely good enough for this trashy place, you are gonna have to do for this lord"

"Who are you ?"

"How dare you interrupt in Ling Clan's business"

"Friend please back away and give us some face"

Seeing the Ling Clan people yap their mouths, displeasure shone in his eyes and he looked over them.

Immediately their faces turned pale. They couldn't even utter a word and started scrambling out of there.

Before they could have gotten away the man waved his hands and they turned into ash.

Then he turned to Look at Long Chen and observed him from top to bottom, like a pervert observing a naked lady.

"You have been cultivating for a short time but such improvements looks like I will gain a lot from devouring your soul jiejiejie"

"I say old man I suggest you don't do things beyond your caliber" Long Chen said while sweat started dripping from his forehead and his blade hands started shaking a little, but deep within his eyes was a cunning flash which the old man missed.

"Jiejiejie a boy wet behind his ears is telling me THE GREAT YAMA EMPEROR what caliber is"

The man's voice turned hoarse and his face revealed hatred, but it was not directed at Long Chen.

Seeing this Long Chen internally smirked.

The Man wasted no time and created a natural array to conceal everything, before making his way towards Long Chen.

The Man doved right into Long Chen's sea of consciousness and made his way towards Long Chen's soul.

"Jiejie your soul is unusual"

'Dammit' Long Chen grimaced in pain his soul felt in immense pain.

"Dragon God Soul release"

The seal covering of his soul got removed and an Ice blue dragon came out in his sea of consciousness.

"Wahahh what it is this ?, you are not a dragon"

Before he could even finish, the draconic soul wrapped all around him.

"Dragon God Seal"

A blue-colored seal appeared before the Yama emperor enveloping him and sealing him.

"AHhhh stop lemme go brat I won't bother you ahhhh lemme go"

Paying Him no heed Long Chen used many types of incarnations and seals on him.

'His soul was heavily damaged otherwise it would not have been so easy'

After it was done Long Chen's shoulders started shaking and his eyebrows were twitching.

It took all his power to prevent himself from laughing like a madman.

He felt euphoric, by things playing out in his favor

"Brat just who are you are you a dragon? "

Long Chen paid him no heed and looked around.

'There it is'

He picked up a ring in reddish black color.

"Hahaha I hope your wealth doesn't disappoint me"

Long Chen tried opening the spatial ring but it needed both essence qi.

'Shit I need essence qi as well as this guy's permission

"Jiejie brat you wanna steal stuff from this lord you are too young"

"Old man don't be too hasty, you know I could consume your soul when I grow to soul transformation stage"

"Tch you wanna consume a nascent soul at just this level gimme a break" The old man chided in disdain but his voice was slightly shaken.

"My dragon soul could restrain you at qi condensation when do you think it would be able to devour you"

"Bra-Young friend this is the case then I can self explode as well, this would benefit no one"

Inside Long Chen's Sea of consciousness the Yama emperor put on a shameless expression seeing this Long Chen felt like throwing up.

"Listen old man if we cooperate I can help you recover to your peak, and even go higher"

"Brat you are a frog in a well don't try to talk nonsense"

The Yama emperor chided disdainfully.

If he was at his peak even having a 2nd look at Long Chen could be considered as a heavenly favor.

"Do you honestly believe that"

Yama Emperor fell silent for a moment. He thought about it and even he felt that Long Chen was not normal, from his dragon soul to his ability to remain calm, and play his cards rationally.

Another thing he felt weird was that the way Long Chen looked at him like he was looking at a plain rock, there was not even a trace of reverence which was awfully weird.

"Brat listen, how about you take me as your master"

"That would not be necessary, we can rather ally here have this"

Saying this Long Chen passed him some information.

"What is this"

"This is ghost scripture a simple cultivation method for your nascent soul I have transmitted the first part by completing this you can recover part of your power"

"This is amazing"

Methods to cultivate the nascent soul were like Phoenix feathers even among emperors.

"Listen old man don't try anything funny your nascent soul is restricted I can temporarily help you release your divine sense but that's it for now.

If we cooperate it would be helpful don't worry I will help you find a new body in the mainland that is"

"You know about the mainland brat. Good for you, by the way call me Yama Emperor at least"

"Nah old geezer sounds better"

"Brat! you just wait"

The Yama emperor sounded aggrieved, with his respectful position he could have a whole sea of people to flatter him, but now even an ant dares to disrespect him.

They chatted for a while before they got back to the estate.

That Night Long Chen was dead tired so after having a simple meal he slept in till the afternoon.

After which he went to Bei Clan estate with Xiao Bai and his entourage.

"Xiao Bai I am gonna introduce you to a big pretty sister today "

"Really is she nice," Xiao bai asked in a small voice.

"Yeah you will love her she will also feed you nice things"

"Really " Her voice was raised by several pitches showing how excited she was.

'This glutton'

"Brat this girl is not simple," The Yama emperor said with a serious tone.

"That is correct she is a high-level demonic beast"

The Yama emperor was surprised at how could such a being exist in this backwater place.

While Long Chen was busy coaxing Xiao Bai in the Ling Clan estate.

…

"Young master Long Chen has left his estate and his heading towards the Bei clan estate"

"Great lemme deal with this hedonistic bastard how dare he humiliates our Ling Clan Let's go"

This person is Ling Moer, Ling Ming's elder brother at the 4th layer of qi condensation, he was also one of Ling Clan's geniuses.

With a muscular body and a somewhat rugged face, he gave off the vibe of an experienced warrior as compared to Ling Ming who seemed like a naive genius.

"Young master Moer I will deal with this bastard, there is no need for you to deal with this bastard"

Guang Yi, a member of the Guang clan one of the first-rate clans of the city.

Guang Yi and Ling Moer have both trained in the imperial academy of the capital.

In fact, it was due to the status of the imperial academy that Guang Yi was provoking Long Chen, otherwise who would provoke such a madman.

If somebody used his clansmen to beat a fellow in the younger generation. It would lead to a huge reputation loss, but Long Chen doesn't have any so-called reputation to speak of, or at least that was the case previously, So it's entirely possible.

Ling Ming was also walking beside the 2 of them in the lead, but his smile was a lot forced.

Due to saving his face, he told his elder brothers how he lost due to despicable means and he wasn't really well that day.

That being said, however, he was in reality shit scared of Long Chen, and was highly doubtful that his brothers could beat him.

But now that he has ridden a tiger he can't get off halfway through.

"Hahaha with big brother Guang Yi and Young master Ling Moer, that Long Chen will piss his pants"

"Hmph we gotta teach him a lesson, he has gotten too arrogant"

Listening to all these people badmouthing Long Chen and flattering his brothers, Ling Ming felt like cursing these bastards for their stupidity and naivety.
