Chapter 11 - The Ascension Battle (III)

Looking at the youth in front of him, and the unfamiliar voice sounded from beside his ear.

Fang Lan completely did not dare to believe his eyes. He didn't know who was that youth nor how he got there in the first place.

The youth didn't look older than ten, however, for some reason, he felt as though the figure of the white-robed youth was like a mountain that could not be climbed over. The youth's eyes were kind of weird as it was covered with two distinct magic runes.

Nonetheless, he was like a divine soldier descending from high heaven. He had this distinct feeling as though the youth was capable of doing everything and felt a sense of security he had never felt before.

His eyes shone brightly while looking at the youth. He was like someone drowning in water with no hope left and suddenly had seen a patch of grass that he could grab onto.

He quickly tried to open his mouth to say yes, but he suddenly discovered that no sound could come out from his throat as it was clogged with blood.

Seeing this, he quickly used the last remaining of his strength to shake his head. He clearly didn't want to die like this.

As soon as he did, he saw the youth point his index finger in his stomach. The fingernail of the youth index finger was suddenly grown an inch longer and mysteriously tuned into a little spike like a thick needle.

As the youth pierced his fingernail into his stomach, he felt acute pain.

At the same time, an unexpected change occurred.

Fang Lan felt a devouring force coming from the youth fingernail which started to crazily devour the poison within every inch of his body. It was like a vacuum, cleaning out the poison within every inch of him.

Furthermore, the poison within him seemed as though it was attracted to this devouring force. Like a lost child, the poison inside of him fled towards the devouring force as though it had found its long lost parent.

"Activate your qi to treat your internal organs." Said the youth while absorbing the poison.

Fang Lan who had spaced out, suddenly woke up from his dreamy state as he circulated his true Qi to treat his internal injuries.

In the meantime, everyone's gaze was gathered onto the body of the white-robed youth that suddenly appeared in the fighting arena, whether it was the elders or the disciples.

Right now, the whole fighting stage and the Asura peak was completely silent. The laughter, jeers, and the criticisms completely disappeared. It seemed like time had frozen.

Ling Xiao's jaws dropped to the floor when he saw the youth. He was shocked because that youth was none other than Ling Chen. He was right there next to him, yet he didn't even realize when Ling Chen had left his side.

What kinda speed was that? One has to understand, Ling Xiao was a late Martial Emperor powerhouse, yet he couldn't figure how and when Ling Chen had left his side.

Nonetheless, Ling Xiao's heart was brimming with immense pleasant surprise because Ling Chen was able to save Fang Lan who was one his man within the core sect. At the same time, it also induced a greater amount of immense terror to know he's about to scheme against such a devil.

" The little Devil!" In the crowd, an elder recognized the youth in the fighting arena and exclaimed.

"The little devil, the third child of the sect master!" Hearing this name, the other Elders uncontrollably lost their colors.

"So it's him…" Said another Core sect elder. Seeing the Withe robe youth ahead, even the Martial Sovereign realm elders' gaze became serious.

As the core sect elders were all top class powerhouses that have already opened up their upper-dantian and awaken their nascent souls along with their domains, they were able to glimpse at the little devil's movement.

While the disciples most likely weren't able to see Ling Chen's actions, but the elders saw it. However, even they themselves only saw his afterimages. If it wasn't for their Martial Sovereign cultivation, and their spiritual senses, they would not be able to keep up with Ling Chen's speed.

This speed was too fast. Even peak Martial Sovereigns and powerful Martial Venerable would not necessarily have such a terrifying speed. It was like instant teleportation.

Though the elders didn't shout his name out loud, all the disciples were able to hear it as they were all powerhouses with enhanced senses.

As the name little devil echoed in their ears, the inner sect disciples, the core sect disciples.....They all lost their colors and stopped breathing in the Asura peak, not daring to make any loud noise out of fear of the little devil.

Each one of them stood up as their bodies shivered uncontrollably, and a surge of fear filled their hearts.

At the same time, countless disciples and elders were only glancing at each other and didn't dare to discuss. The appearance of that youth in the fighting arena caused the entire Asura peak to fall into a state of complete stillness. It was so quiet that one could even hear the sound of a needle dropping on the ground.

As for Lin Mu, he just stood there frozen, not daring to make a move. His eyes widened, and his breaths became rags and harsh as he was looking at the youth in front of him. His playful character became serious.

Ling Chen was like a taboo within the Heavenly Demon Sect. Even though he never participated in the affair of the sect, he was like a legend. His nickname evoked fear in the hearts of people who have not even encountered him yet.

On top of the highest platform, Ling Jian's expression changed as well as he was looking at Ling Chen. His face carried an unsightly expression, especially when he saw the way the elders, as well as the disciples, were looking at Ling Chen.

They were all afraid and scared shitless just by looking at him. At the same time, there was respect and reverence in their eyes. Something he never saw in their eyes when they were looking at him.

For Ling Jian, looking at his little brother in the fighting arena today was a feeling that only he himself knew what it was like. He was hailed as the strongest disciple throughout the whole sect. He was a rare genius that appeared once in a thousand years.

He was the chosen child of the heavens within the members of the disciples of Heavenly Demon Sect. As the chief disciple, he was the brightest and most glorious disciple of the sect. Everyone looked up to him and revered him. However, with the birth of his little brother, everything's changed.

This little brother of his was born with heaven-defying strength. He was praised as a deity or the devil by the others due to his immense power. Even though his little brother has never meddled in the affair of the sect, his prestige was on par with the sect master in the hearts of the disciples.

Furthermore, though his little brother didn't physically confront him or did anything bad to him, he has hated him the moment he was born. He was like a thorn in his heart. Even though he didn't say anything, his attitude towards him revealed it all.

On the platform, the red-haired Ling Jian stared at long Chen with a razor-sharp glare as he spoke in an extremely cold tone, " Back down Ling Chen!"

" Don't you know that it's forbidden for a disciple or even for an elder to meddle in the ascension battle."

Ling Jian's eyes were glowing red as he spoke with an indifferent tone.

After Ling Jian finished speaking, no one saw any movement, but he had already arrived in front of Ling Chen like a ghost.

It's been a hundred years since someone dared to interfere with the ascension battle of the inner sect, yet that little bastard has waited until he was the one overseeing this one meddle.

Does this bastard want to humiliate him in public by defying his authority? Even though there was a furious flame raging in his heart, he still contained it. He has to maintain his chief disciple demeanor.

At this moment, All of the Inner Sect, Core Sect disciples as well as the elders came to a stop in whatever they were doing, all of them fixated on the two figures on arena up ahead.

One of them was the number one Disciple of the Heavenly Demon Sect as well the chief disciple, Ling Jian, and the other was the little devil.

Although the two of them were brothers, with a single glance, one can see that they didn't like each other.

Looking at the ugly look on his big brother, Ling Chen didn't know what to say.

Initially, he didn't want to cause any trouble or draw the attention of the others onto him. He just wanted to watch the fights silently in the corner.

However, that little fella named Fang Lan caught his attention. Unlike the other disciples around, Fang Lan's blood seemed to be a little different.

He wasn't a pure-blooded human. His blood was mixed with the blood of a demon beast. He didn't know what type of demon beast it was, but the blood mixed within seemed to be very strong. Unfortunately, that blood was dormant.

If that fella was able to awaken that blood or draw out his power, he would become much stronger. No one has ever caught his attention so far, so seeing how that interesting little fella was going to die, he couldn't help but made his move. It wasn't his intention to interfere with the ascension battle.

" Sorry, I didn't mean to". Answered Ling Chen apologetically while continued devouring the poison within Fang Lan's body.

Ling Jian who was waiting for Ling Chen to act high and mighty in order to teach him a lesson was slightly taken back. He didn't expect Ling Chen to apologize for the right off the bat.

He thought that this little brother of his wanted to cause trouble on behalf of Ling Xiao as Lin Mu was one of his new recruits. It seemed like he really didn't know anything about that.

Not to mention him, almost everyone was surprised as well. In their eyes, Ling Chen was a big devil who didn't care about anyone and did whatever he wanted.

Even though none of them saw Ling Chen in action before, they already come to view him as a bloodthirsty fiend. His tales about his brutal strength and bloodthirstiness have already struck everyone deep into their hearts.

Ever since he was five, all sorts of rumors have already spread about him and none of them were positive. He didn't take long before countless people of the region as well as the sect learned about a little child that nobody could provoke, a little child known as the little devil.

Yet, that same little devil who had such a dazzling ferocious reputation was apologizing to his big brother in public. Was he the same little devil that they've all heard about? The little devil that has already become the nightmares of every warrior.

As for Ling Jian, even though his little brother wasn't acting on behalf of Ling Xiao to cause him trouble and even apologized to him, His feeling towards him still hadn't changed.

Ling Jian's gaze was still fierce while coldly staring at Ling Chen. His voice was crisp like a bell as he coldly said: " Leave the fighting Arena right now."

Listening to his big brother, Ling Chen didn't say anything as he said to Fang Lan." Follow me."

Even though the poison within him was gone, he had lost all of his cultivation. As such, he wanted to use him for a little experiment.

"He stays behind." Coldly voiced out Ling Jian as he unleashed his imposing manner as well as his Martial Sovereign Aura on Ling Chen.

Ling Jian's movement caused a huge turmoil, things really hadn't come to an end.
