Somewhere in Jin Kingdom;

Long Yan looked at his bloody hands with terror as he finally realized what happened to him. His seemingly soulless yet alluring red eyes widened instantly.

"It ha—happened a—again." Long Yan stuttered. His charming and youthful voice turned soft as it faintly trembled. "I became a devil again!"

"Seize him! He killed members of our Dong Clan!"

Long Yan was pulled from his thoughts. He's now facing the consequences of actions that he did unknowingly! A worried experience mixed with terror dominated his devilish face.

They were approaching him quickly while they use their martial spirits to maximize their speed!

"Oh no! I'm powerless against these people!"

The young man gritted his teeth knowing that he can't do anything right now but to reveal his martial spirit!

"Demonic Ice Phoenix!"

Bang!

A powerful gust of wind blew out of his body as he was suddenly engulfed with faint cyan light. His red eyes turned royal blue in color, giving a stunning sight!

His outer injuries quickly recovered while a cyan flame appeared on his forehead, looking so real as if it could burn the souls of all living creatures!

Long Yan' already stunning and devilish appearance was even elevated to another level thanks to the demomic aura of his martial spirit. Nonetheless, it gave them fright!

This young man's seductive appearance, although still looking youthful is dangerous!

"Shit! He have Twin Martial Spirits! Kill him or he'll be a threat in the future!"

"What kind of martial spirit is this? It's so attractive but feels deadly!"

"Use your martial skills and catch up to him!"

The young man's thin eyebrows curled. He doesn't want to call for help since he is still confident of escaping!

He awakened this martial spirit when he turned thirteen years old which is four months ago. It's a variant of the vermilion bird that belongs to the four divine beasts!

Martial spirits are mysterious creatures that kids awaken when they turn thirteen years old. They allow people to absorb qi from the heaven and earth and cultivate to defy the laws of nature!

These martial spirits gives martial skills that are truly useful and works by consuming a cultivator's qi. Every time a cultivator's spiritual power advances by ten levels, they'll acquire another martial skill!

There are many types of martial spirits but the most common are the Tool, Weapon, Beast, Soul, Food and Plant Type. There are also some variant types and rare types.

His Demomic Ice Phoenix belongs to the Mystic Type. Martial spirits belonging to this type are not only rare but only appears once in a million. They are known for giving passive skills to their owners that doesn't require qi to be activated. It will work as long as the necessary requirement is fulfilled.

His passive skill is called the Phoenix Blessings giving him an increase in his flexibility and agility. This also gave him a few understandings about the will of wind and ability.

That's why Long Yan is very agile as if he is weightless despite the fact that he doesn't have high physical strength.

He had no plans on relying on his Phoenix Blessings. It won't be enough.

Long Yan threw his pursuers a glance before leaping on air!

Woosh!

Although he doesn't have any wings on his back, his martial skill called Wingless Flight allows him to fly in a speed faster than those people that were chasing him!

It consumes a lot of qi but for Long Yan who have a special body constitution, he'll never worry of running out of qi!

"Dang it! He's flying so fast!"

"Green Stripped Crane!"

"Nice! Go and take him down!"

Long Yan sneered. A crane is no way more domineering than his martial spirit. He obviously can't match the crane's strength right now but his martial spirit's aura is enough!

He headed towards the largest forest in the kingdom which is filled with a lot of deadly beasts and even spiritual beasts!

"Cry of the Phoenix!" Long Yan exclaimed inwardly to use his second martial skill!

Looking backwards, he took a deep breath and released a high-pitched and aggressive shout that sounded like the cry of a phoenix! It didn't only give them chills but made them tremble!

The martial skill carried the tyrannical aura of the Demonic Ice Phoenix after all!

They were temporarily stunned!

Seeing that their speed slowed down after using his martial skill, Long Yan dived into the Golden Forest! The agility given by his martial spirit will be shown in a terrain like the forest!

He's sure that even the Green Stripped Crane won't be able to catch up! Unlike the Demonic Ice Phoenix, that martial spirit is mostly for peaceful and stable flights!

And their martial spirit is a Beast Type, they need to ride the Green Stripped Crane to be able to follow. Unlike Long Yan who seemed to have transformed into a human versiom of the Demonic Ice Phoenix!

"Older brother! Don't chase him! It's dangerous inside the Golden Forest!"

"Even though he can fly, there are aerial beasts in there that could kill him!"

He heard his pursuers shout. Nonetheless, Long Yam didn't stop. He continued flying rapidly between trees, moving from lef to right occasionally.

Long Yan bit his pink lips. "What happened to me? I didn't expect that I'll turn into a devil today!"

The young man that looks so alluring is confused and at the same time, worried. It's getting more powerful unlike the earliest transformations. This time, the transformation was long and powerful!

He used his spiritual sense to see if somebody secretly followed him. Spiritual sense could be used as long as a cultivator have atleast Level 10 spiritual power.

Long Yan's spiritual power is Level 27 which shows his terrific talent as if he had sold his soul in exchange. It's his cultivation level that is low because of his special body constitution.

When he assured that no one followed him, Long Yan started flying to a different direction. After a few minutes, he seemed to have entered an invisible bubble, the space around him was even disoriented.

What greeted him is a small modern house yet it appeared luxurious. Surrounding it were a lot of spiritual herbs and beautiful flowers. It's just like a paradise.

He anxiously started running towards the back of the house since flight is restricted in this area. In the back of the house was a pool, the water looks very clear and sparkly.

But what's stunning is the man on the corner. Half of his body was submerged in the shower, only showing his eight pack abdominal muscles and sharp v-line. His jawline is very sharp while his collar bones were so defined.

He got a slim waist and lean muscles. His body is flawless.

The man's face is breathtaking. He have a devilish appearance with overflowing sexiness. Coupled with his body, one could tell that he's a drop-dead gorgeous man.

Just like the daddy-type that women describes.

Aside from this, he have a mysterious aura just like Long Yan. But this man's aura is more domineering and suppressive. Just like an emperor on his throne.

He opened his eyes, showing his red eyes that were like bloody orbs.

"My boy, why do you look so anxious? You're also injured."

This man is Long Tian, his father. He gave a devilish smile which made him more handsome.. Long Yan suddenly felt warm all over his body while he retracted his martial spirit.

There's no need to check, his father healed him.

Long Yan walked towards his father and sat on the edge of the pool with his feet submerged in the water. Long Tian looked at his son straight into the eyes. In contrary to his cold personality, his gaze is full of warmth.

"Daddy, I killed people again." Long Yan revealed with a low voice.

Long Tian chuckled. In fact, he already knew what happened. He's always testing the young man's honesty. "Tell me what happened my boy."

The young man nodded and tried to recall what happened. "I was just buying food earlier when somebody tried to annoy me. After that, I dont know what happened.. When I realized, I already killed a lot of people from Dong Clan."

His father nodded knowingly. Long Yan asked, "Daddy what should I do?"

Long Tian smiled. He took Long Yan's clothes off by snapping his fingers. In the next second, the young man only has his boxers on. His body is slim and lean.. Despite his young age, he is toned and sexy. He have a slim waist and eigh pack abdominal muscles that aren't that distinct yet.

He also have perfect proportions and long legs. One could notice the tent on his boxers even though he was he's not excited yet. He should be at least 6.5 inches while dormant.

Long Tian is Long Yan's father after all.

The man pulled his son into the water and hugged him tightly. Because of Long Yan 's special body, he is very cold. It feels great hugging and him because Long Tian' s body is the opposite, it's very warm.

"Just relax my boy. Daddy is always here for you okay?"

Maybe he was so tense, Long Yan's body suddenly turned soft when he's in his father's embrace. He gradually calmed down and closed his eyes in the process. "Okay Daddy."

"Forget what happened. You didn't do it intentionally. As for transforming into a devil, don't forget that you're my son no matter what happens. Transforming is a part of you because of your body. Don't fight it."

Long Yan nodded, hugging the man more tight. His father's presence always made him feel comfortable and safe. As if everything is okay as long as he's in the man's embrace or just near him.

His father really cares for him.

He caressed Long Yan's face as the young man lay his head on bis chest. Long Tian couldn't help but smile. It was Long Yan that made him so happy and contended of life.

It was only when his son came to his life tha the felt complete.

He looked down and touched Long Yan's palm. It's smooth, there are no traces of the deadly training that his son had undergone. Sometimes, he feels pity towards his son. Long Yan have unfathomable talent but his special body constitution is restricting him.

That's why his physical strength is very low since he was a kid.

Long Tian realized that his son had fallen asleep. He always fall asleep easily when he feels safe.

His face turned emotionless. Long Tian called out , "Long Gao"

Out of nowhere, a man older than Long Tian by a decade appeared behind him. He doesn't look old, in fact he looks like a handsome thirty years old man.

"Yes Young Master?"

Long Tian glanced at his son then replied, "Dong Clan."

Long Gao easily understood what his young master meant. His figure disappeared without a trace. After that, Long Tian went into his own room while carrying the young man.

...

Suddenly, on top of the Dong Clan, Long Gao appeared. There aren't any emotion on his face. He just looked downwards. He's no longer surprised, his young master is irrational when it comes to his son.

"From today onwards, there'll be no Dong Clan in the Jin Kingdom!"
