Chapter 11 - Second Spirit!

Phoenix Feather Sect's Awakening Site,

"So, there you are!"

[Ding! Host, You have successfully shocked Protagonist Han Yujin to the core. You are awarded with 5000 Villain Points.]

[Ding! Host, You have succeeded in making Protagonist Han Yujin question reality. You obtain 5000 Villain Points.]

[Ding! Host, You have succeeded in turning Protagonist Han Yujin's mind into a mess. You obtain 5000 Villain Points.]

These notifications were the results of the shock that Han Yujin had received. His mind was in doubt right now.

This Person looked exactly like the Ninth Prince Fang Ashen, only his common clothes made him different. He was confused because of the fact that a person could only awaken his spirit once and Prince Fang Ashen had already done it, so what was this?

Was this Person a different person or something else?

As he thought along these lines, his eyes widened in shock as a thought crossed his mind, murmuring in question: "Was his claim of having that treasure which could make you awaken again, True?"

As this thought came into his mind, his head started spinning with nausea.

However, he controlled himself as he prepared himself, his eyes shining with determination. He was going to reveal his identity in front of all, however, not now. Right now, He also desired to witness what kind of spirit, his enemy was awakening.

*Thunder*

*Lightning*

The clouds in the sky turned even darker, making the day appear as if it were night. The lightning flashed with thunder accompanying it. The gusts of wind turned even fierce as if a storm was going to come.

The thunder rumbled continuously like an angry giant awakening from slumber, each reverberation sending tremors through the landscape. Lightning slashed across the darkened expanse, illuminating the tempest in brief, dazzling bursts.

This went on for a while before a golden bright light appeared in between the cloud above, facing Ashen.

The golden light fell on Ashen's face before illuminating his whole body.

Gradually, the golden light turned brighter, fading away the darkness as the sky turned golden.

"Look, What is that?" A man from the gathered crowd shouted, pointing at the sky.

"It looks like a staff or a stick" A woman speculated.

Everyone also gazed at this staff that had appeared in the sky.

This staff appeared as an iron rod with gold bands at each end.

"Is that his spirit? But why is this spirit giving rise to this phenomenon?" An elder pondered, stroking his beard.

"It's a simple stick, nothing else, heh" A man commented, mocking the spirit of Ashen.

Upon hearing this sentence, a loud voice, seemingly from a giant, reverberated from the clouds: "You dare to call my weapon a simple stick? Die fool"

A red ray of light came forth from the clouds, enveloping this man before burning him to a crisp.

Everyone's eyes widened in horror as they made distance from the spot, the man was standing at.

Everyone turned their gazes to the sky again to see the entity behind this attack.

And they didn't have to wait long as a huge humanoid face that combined both human and simian features appeared in the clouds.

His fiery golden eyes reflected his clever and mischievous nature. The golden fur on his face resembled that of a monkey, with features like prominent cheekbones and pointed ears, completing his simian aspect.

"M-Monkey King, S-Sun Wukong?" An Elder blurted out loudly in shock, kneeling while bowing.

"WHAT??" Everyone questioned in shock with enlarged eyes, however, just followed the Elder as they knelt on the ground.

They all knew the story of Sun Wukong and how he was, he would kill without batting an eye.

Right now, everyone was kneeling, except for two people, Fang Ashen and Han Yujin.

Yujin's reason was simple. The reason that all Protagonists had, not to kneel in front of anyone except for their parents and masters.

While Ashen didn't feel the need to kneel as this was happening because of his spirit.

Ashen, without uttering a word, focused his gaze on the monkey king.

Sun Wukong's gaze paused on Yujin for a moment before stopping on Ashen.

He didn't care about making people kneel infront of him, it was their choice and he wouldn't punish someone for it.

Therefore, focusing on Ashen, He spoke with a playful grin as his voice reverberated in the sky: "I like you Kid, I have observed you for a while and found you similar to me. You also don't care about people, only indulging in your desire. Though, Our desires are different" He winked at Ashen.

Ashen just nodded in acknowledgement, understanding fully what he was referring to.

Monkey King continued: "Since Our natures are somewhat similar, My weapon decided to become your spirit and accompany you in your journey. It was too powerful for your current body, therefore, I sealed some of its powers for you to be able to wield it and as you become powerful, the seal will also loosen up according to your strength."

Ashen nodded again, continuing to listen.

"Since I like you, I have also sealed one of my abilities in it which will be granted to you at the right time. Now, Here is your new 8-star spirit, Ruyi Jingu Bang!"

The Staff started to descend from the sky and noticing this, Ashen bowed slightly as he raised both his hands in front of him with palms facing the sky.

The staff slowly stopped on top of his hands as it shrunk according to his size. Ashen gazed at it with a smile as he found it quite beautiful.

"Alright, now I will take my leave, Take good care of yourself and my weapon, hehe" The Monkey King's face giggled as it slowly dissipated into thin air.

Ashen, standing at the center with the staff, gazed at the sky with a calm expression, while on the inside, he was in utter disbelief as he murmured while asking the system: "System, are you sure I am not a Protagonist?"

[Ding! Host, You are a villain for sure and this was due to your previous life's luck and Karma]

Ashen nodded as he agreed: "Yeah, I helped so many poor women in my past life, they must have prayed for me and gave me good karma"

 As he was lost in thought, An old voice reached his ears: "Good Kid, You awakened an Eight-star spirit and that too the weapon of the monkey king. You pass the test, let's go and get you to join our sect"

The Elder who was responsible for Ashen's test complimented as he stroked his beard calmly with a smile.

Ashen upon seeing his shamelessness thought inwardly: "Who is he trying to fool? Is an 8-star spirit a joke? I can clearly see your legs shaking old man!"

Ashen shook his head as he rejected: "No, I don't want to join your sect"

"WHAT??" The elder's eyes popped out in shock as he shouted.

He questioned: "But why? You were so eager to join our sect just some moments ago"

Ashen answered with a grin: "I have awakened an Eight-star spirit, Why would I join a low-ranked sect when I can join the top sect"

As Ashen said this, an old man's laugh reverberated, praising Ashen: "Hahaha, Good Kid, You are correct. Just join my Crimson Sky Sect"
