contemporary romance
Inside the underground palace, Elder Skinling was carefully escorting Chu Yang forward towards the throne room located at the centre of the underground palace, this was the place that the Sect Master of the Black Rose Sect resided!
As he got closer and closer to the throne room that the Sect Master was located in, Elder Skinling started growing more and more nervous with each passing second.
No matter how confident he was in the person that he had met earlier, he still could not stop himself from feeling extremely nervous.
"Come!" As Chu Yang and Elder Skinling arrived in front of a large double door, a demonic voice echoed out from the other side as the double door slowly started opening on its own. Not giving Chu Yang or Elder Skinling any time to respond to the voice.
Looking into the pitch-black darkness beyond the double door, Elder Skinling gulped in fear as he slowly walked inside, making sure that Chu Yang was walking in front of him.
The last time he visited the Sect Master, it was nowhere near as scary as it was currently! Before there were several light sources in the room making it bright and majestic, but now it was completely dark and gave off a creepy and scary vibe.
Elder Skinling felt like his life was no longer in his own hands, as the aura in front of him grew stronger and stronger the closer he got.
"S-sect Master, I have brought back the traitor who stole away the Devil-Immortal Jade!" Coming to a stop a few meters away from the place that the aura came from, Elder Skinling did not dare to move any closer as he quickly pushed Chu Yang towards the Sect Master.
"Hm…" Not saying anything more, the Sect Master who was completely hidden by the darkness thoroughly inspected Chu Yang before his gaze finally landed on a token firmly held in Chu Yang's left hand.
The Sect Master could clearly feel the demonic will inside the token and knew that it was the right one and not just some imitation that Elder Skinling had made in an attempt to safe himself from punishment, should he fail to get the Devil-Immortal Jade back again.
"Great!" Not being able to fully control himself upon finding out that it was the real Devil-Immortal Jade, the Sect Master smiled happily as he waved his hand, causing the Devil-Immortal Jade to fly out of Chu Yang's hand and into his own.
"Hm?" Upon grabbing hold of the Devil-Immortal Jade, the Sect Master immediately felt that something was wrong, it felt lighter than it had in the past… quickly bringing the jade closer to have a closer look.
The Sect Master of the Black Rose Sect immediately discovered that a large part of the Devil-Immortal Jade had been chipped off, even worse, it was the main part of the jade containing the Devil-Immortal engraving.
Without it, the Devil-Immortal Jade was useless…
"Who!?" The aura of the Black Rose Sect Master went out of control as an overwhelming killing intent suddenly washed over both Chu Yang and Elder Skinling, causing both of them to weakly collapse down on the ground, unable to move a single muscle.
Chu Yang laid flat on the ground, while Elder Skinling barely managed to keep himself up as he looked in the direction of the Sect Master filled with fear of what was about to happen.
"Y-you…!" Barely manging to get any words out, Elder Skinling looked extremely shocked the moment he actually saw the Sect master, this was not due to him suddenly becoming extraordinarily handsome or anything like that.
No, instead it was because of the two bat like wings behind him, making him look extremely demonic.
"You completed the second demonic transformation!?" Barely managing to get a sentence out after calming himself down for a few seconds, Elder Skinling knew very well what the pair of bat-like wings on the Sect Master's back meant.
The Second Demonic Transformation was a cultivation realm under demonic cultivation that was said to be as strong as peak Nascent Soul Realm cultivators! But this was not the only thing that made demonic cultivators on the second transformation scary, what truly set them apart was the pair of demonic wings that they would grow, allowing them to fly through the air without reaching the Domain Lord Realm!
While Elder Skinling did not know if the Sect Master truly attained the strength of someone at the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm had, he still knew that the current Sect Master was not one that would be easily caught.
Maybe I made the wrong choice…?
Thinking back to this, Elder Skinling remembered when he had secretly cut off the engraved part of the Devil-Immortal Jade with a special qi technique when Chu Yang had been sleeping and the other elder was not paying attention on the way back to the Black.
The expert that could fly had instructed him to do this and then allow Chu Yang to hand over the damaged Devil-Immortal Jade to the Sect Master… But why?
Elder Skinling saw the Sect Masters aura growing more and more unstable as he felt an enormous killing intent locking on to him and Chu Yang, ensuring that neither of them could escape their impending doom.
…
Outside of the palace where Chu Yang and Elder Skinling were currently, Xuan Hao felt the demonic aura inside of the palace suddenly come alive as it violently spread out causing an enormous pressure to descend upon the disciples and elders of the Black Rose Sect.
The ones standing too close to the palace, like the guards, directly collapsed to the ground as they could not stand up straight under the pressure and was forced to either kneel down or just collapse directly in the form of a human pancake, trying their best to not suddenly die under the pressure.
"Looks like that Elder Skinling is indeed useful!" smiling to himself, Xuan Hao could clearly see that the Sect Master of the Black Rose Sect was currently undergoing an emotional upheaval, this had caused his aura to grow extremely unstable as he had a hard time controlling his anger.
Normally, such a thing would only take a few seconds, if not less to calm down for a Nascent Soul Realm Expert and would normally not be a problem… But during the period of emotional instability the Nascent Soul Realm Expert would be vulnerable, and his divine sense would momentarily be unstable enough that someone could sneak close without being noticed…
Meaning there was an opportunity for a surprise attack!
