Chereads / Soul of Darkness / Chapter 10 - 10

Chapter 10 - 10

An unprecedented genius appeared in the sect!

Within a year he achieved level 10 and within 3 he got up to level 15!!

This was considered incredible even amongst the imperial court.

-For such a genius to appear in the Sun clan, the heavens must have seen our predicament and decided to help us!!

The clan leader listened to the praise and became excited.

Initially, he made many children to see if there could be any geniuses amongst his blood but after 10 attempts and all of them were with normal talent the man gave up.

After he chose a sunt with above-average talent to inherit his position the man went into seclusion and left the matters to his vassals.

But after hearing the news he came personally to see the youth.

After talking for awhile the youth kowtowed and called him master.

After a few months of careful teaching, the youth started soaring in levels and his future was as bright as the morning sun.

...

30 years passed and the youth became a level 30 existence with countless opportunities and fame.

On average one would advance at a pace of 1 level every 10 years.

So for the youth that advanced 10 times faster the future was indeed bright.

Going out in the morning and coming with countless valuable monster carcasses at night.

Doing so for 1 month nonstop made the clan soar in value and become a high-class power that could rival small countries.

Others took note and extended allegiance pledges to the clan leader.

Others tried killing the man, however, the genius always escaped and turned hardships into boons.

...

another 30 years went by as the man achieved level 60 and became well-known everywhere in the world.

In the entire continent tales and legends were told about his dazzling rising to power.

Inside a magnificent castle, the youth knelt on one knee and cupped his fists.

-Solder greets the mighty sovereign!

In front of him, a woman sat on the throne and nodded her head.

Clothed in white robes and wearing a veil the woman exuded royalty and charm.

-You have been dutifully serving the empire all these years.

-As a reward, I will appoint you as the general of the crimson army!

All the officials on the side had wide eyes and together they knelt and saluted the newly appointed army official.

That day, the royal palace threw a party so grand that even some powerhouses couldn't help but come and express their congratulations.

...

Inside a strong blizzard, one could see a naked youth walking.

With medium-length black hair and black pupils, if one looked carefully even his veins looked like they had tar going through instead of blood.

His calm and steady pace was a stark contrast to the situation he was in.

After walking for some time the youth started aging bit by bit until he became a mature and well built man.

A flawless body that was straight out of painting and together with a handsome face made the person look more like a god than a mortal being.

"Inhale-Exhale"

My wounds are healed and now I am focusing on fully fixing my soul.

After a thorough scan there seemed to be life signs in this direction.

So I lift my left leg and with a flicker, I appear 10 000 miles away.

Fixing my eyes on a building makes me realize that a town was built in this barren land.

With a flicker, I appeared inside a house and what greeted me was a bunch of naked women.

All of them were chained to the wall and looked to be put in an exposition of some sort.

Turning behind me I found an entire hall of tables and each table had around 3 to 5 people seated with masks on and small signs in hand.

I quickly realized what this was...

-Hello, can this gentleman tell me what is he searching for?

Next to me, an elderly man appeared, dressed in a long winter coat and with long hair and a beard.

Fixing my eyes on him made him unconsciously shiver and he immediately knelt.

Level 40...

What a weakling, this place seems to be a slavery market.

Perfect!

If I can contaminate the slaves with my virus and spread them around the world...

A plan took shape in my head as I turned and looked at everyone in the room.

With a wave, all of them collapsed, and in instant multiple levels, 50 and 60 beings died without a single scream or move.

-You

I looked back at the old man

-Take me to your leader.

He stayed still in place and after a second he stood up and pointed his hand

-Please follow me, respected guest.

As we were walking I decided that I should wear some clothes since talking naked would affect the other party.

In the next second, a black suit appeared on me that perfectly fit my body and I went on with the old man.

After walking for a bit we arrived at a wide office, on the walls rows of books were neatly arranged on redwood shelves and further in the room a wooden table was filled with all sorts of books and documents.

An old man with glasses looked over and with calm movements, he stood up and came to greet me.

-Hello, my name is Xiao Peizhi and I wonder if our guest is thirsty.

He stood aside and pointed at two teacups lying on a small table surrounded by two reclined chairs.

I smiled and answered

-Yes, I haven't had a drink for a pretty long while.

...

After some chitchat, we got to the main subject.

-Why did our sir pay a visit to this old man?

I calmly sipped on the tea as I looked him in the eyes and answered

-About that, I wish to have a business partnership with you.

-I can supply some slaves and you can deal with the selling, I will only take 40% of the profit.

The man shivered a bit when our eyes met, eve though we were both at level 80 I was a little higher than him and even had countless memories absorbed from all the beings I killed.

It wouldn't be weird even if a higher leveled being would be scared by my eyes.

-40% profit...what is the catch?

I smiled and opened my mouth.

...

After a while, I got out of the office and met the old man.

With a wave, I went through the corridor and vanished in the distance.

After I went away the old man entered the office and bowed respectfully.

-Servant greets the leader.

Xiao Peizhi waved his hand as a troubled look could be seen on his face.

He was dealing with the slave market because he was searching for something but what that man earlier had requested was... troubling.
