Chapter 28

Ye Qi looked at the confused men in front of him. After taking one of them down, Ye Qi still has to fight five. They couldn't see him though. He was within the void form. In this form, not only he is invisible, but he is untouchable as he is in another dimension.

Since Ye Qi is Gold Rank now, he can sneak on the first stars Black Gold spiritualists in this form. Of course, once he let himself out of the void form, he would have presence felt.

Ye Qi looked at his father, who was battling Sikong Yi.

The ground, no, this whole territory was shaking from their clash.

Ye Qi narrowed his eyes. The results of what's going to happen next depending on the outcome of their fight. Ye Qi, of course, had a plan in case things went bad. Ye Qi started moving.

Even though moving in the void form makes him slower than usual, he, however, with the <<Time Warp skill>>, can overcome this weakness.

There was one problem though. The consumption of soul force was crazy when he uses the time-space skill with the void form, which is consuming on its own.

But given the fact he is near the 3rd Star of Gold, his stamina is enough for him to end this fight in enough time.

Moving slowly, Ye Qi placed himself behind the second guy who's rank is at the peak of the Gold Rank.

"Where did he go."

"Don't lower your guard."

"We have to catch him before the patriarch ends up with the old fart." Said the gold rank one.

"You are the fart." Ye Qi appeared from the thin air and swung his sword on the back of the gold rank fighter.

He had disdain on his face when he had heard them insulting Ye Xiu. Although the latter isn't Ye Qi's daddy, he is still his father. After all, Ye Xiu slapped someone for Ye Qi.

The moment Ye Qi attacked and took down one person, the others noticed his appearance.

"Over here."

Quickly, the strongest one appeared in front of him and swayed his fist. However, in crazy reaction speed, Ye Qi vanished in thin air.

<<Coordinates rewind>>

Ye Qi appeared where he had been four seconds ago. He had made his calculation beforehand. Now, he was in front of the 1st-star Black Gold fighter. Since his foes used a technique that made them bulkier and stronger, Ye Qi's relative smaller build made him sneakier.

Channelling his soul force in his sword and slowing the time, the Meteoric Thunder God Sword shone in blue light. Once Ye Qi waved it, a deep cut appeared on the man's chest followed by a strike of lightning that came out of the sword that destroyed the fighter's body from the inside.

*Bang*

Falling in front of his comrades, the man fell on the ground and his pupils vanished

Shen Xiu and Hongyue, who were fighting, stopped for a brief and looked over Ye Qi. Hongyue, despite being a very skilful swordswoman, was unable to keep up with Shen Xiu's speed. It was a natural advantage for Shen Xiu, who got her physical abilities and speed enhanced, without mentioning the magical abilities that the Sacred Flames demon spirit has. Cats were really fasts. Not to mention, Shen Xiu was using a very hot type of flames which would give her an advantage over the same type of spiritualists from the same rank. Hongyue was sweating each moment, while Shen Xiu's chest was jiggling as if the heat didn't affect her.

"Bitch, you see. My man is going to take care of them." Shen Xiu said.

Hongyue, when she saw Ye Qi taking down three out of six men, has flinched and was thinking of going to assist the others. However, given the fact that a fat titted woman had called her a bitch is still in front of her, Hongyue thought of beating her first.

"Tsk. You think you can get arrogant. Fine, father has to find another concubine. You don't deserve it anyway."

Using low scarlet flames body strengthening techniques, Hongyue's body shone in purple firelight, before her body appeared to be stronger.

Shen Xiu was triggered after hearing those words. The fire started dancing around her body, their heat was very strong, enough to melt iron.

"I will make it clear. I'm Ye Qi's. For being such insolence little whore, I will burn you."

Shen Xiu has yet to use the God Growth demon spirit's full ability. Opening her mouth, the fire was gathering all at one point in her tongue.

"Die!"

Hongyue held her sword with both hands and a silver aura wrapped her sword. Flapping her wings, she dashed toward Shen Xiu. Shen Xiu sneered at Hongyue with her crimson eyes looking at her. The fire has finished gathering in front of her mouth, forming a very compressed ball. When Hongyue was three meters away, the fireball turned into a very hot red beam that headed toward the winged girl.

Hongyue quickly waved her sword in front of the beam, her momentum stopping in the middle of the air. A strong explosion happened. Despite Shen Xiu being only a Silver rank spiritualist, she managed to make Sikong Hongyue fly back and hit a wall.

"You…" Hongyue stood up slowly after taking the hit, feeling the heat and burned all over her body. But she seemed to have enough resolve to go few more rounds.

Meanwhile, Ye Qi was in his void form, thinking of a new strategy to take more enemies at the same time.

Taking advantage of the fact that he is invisible, Ye Qi sneaked behind the strongest one and stood in front of him. "One, two, three." He was counting as he went behind him again.

The soldiers seemed to be careful of his attack. However, Ye Qi had put in his mind that he shouldn't be predictable. All of these people are highly trained soldiers. They should expect him to repeat his attack.

Ye Qi emerged from his void form.

"Behind you." One of the soldiers yelled at the four stars Black Gold Fighter. The latter, nevertheless, didn't need the warning as he had spotted Ye Qi's shadow in front of him. He clenched his hand around the grip of his sword, turned, and swung his sword with enough force and speed to cut Ye Qi's head.

Ye Qi had a smirk at this time. He had already predicted that he would turn back, that's why he had been in front of him three seconds ago.

<<Coordinates rewind>>

Using this skill, Ye Qi went back to his original spot three seconds ago.

The strongest fighter had a confused look on his face, as Ye Qi had vanished in thin air.

Before he could even realise it, Ye Qi focused his sword intent on the blade and stabbed forward.

Even though the fighter at such rank had a very solid body, Ye Qi's sword intent made it easy to pierce his body.

"Argh…" The fighter was shocked when he felt the blade cutting him. Blood gushed out of his mouth, and the lightning from the sword was destroying his insides.

Ye Qi took his sword back and the man's body shrank to its original size.

Ye Qi turned to the three who are left now. It's time for an easier win.

After he gave them a smirk, Ye Qi vanished from their sight again and moved within the void. Confusion and fear were drawn on his enemies' faces.

Ye Qi could see them. On the other hand, they can't see or feel him. Ye Qi was seriously scary with his demon spirit, especially for those with ranks are near to him.

Without a voice, Ye Qi appeared next to the first-star black gold who didn't have a chance.

As it seems, with Ye Qi's speed after merging with the Shadow Devil and the accelerated time, Ye Qi had an absolute advantage as the man fell on his knees, as a big wound appeared on his back.

In no time, the others reacted quickly and dashed toward Ye Qi, who quickly jumped up at a very high speed, avoiding their attacks.

Ye Qi's feet landed on the roof.

When they looked up, Ye Qi quickly used his third time-space skill to get back to his original spot.

This allowed him to catch the two off guard as Ye Qi had appeared between them again.

Before they could react, Ye Qi held the sword with two hands, stood on one foot, and started spinning, creating a black and blue-lightning bur.

The two fighters flew back with wounds on their chests, as the cheer force made them unable to react.

Even their armours weren't enough to help them in the face of Ye Qi, who was just a 2nd Star Gold rank.

Still, Ye Qi had the advantage over them as a Demon Spiritualist, without the need to mention his other skills. But if he depended solely on his demon spirit, this battle would have taken longer. Not to mention, their numbers give them an advantage.

"Hah~"

Ye Qi exhaled as the dark smoke spots around his body has vanished and he looked around as put the sword on his back.

Ye Qi felt something behind him, a shadow overwhelming him.

Slowing the time again, Ye Qi had the time to see the winged shadow of a curvy warrior woman on the ground, covering his shadow.

Somehow, Sikong Hongyue could slip from Shen Xiu's hands and sneak on him.

Ye Qi, taking advantage of his Time Warp skill that allowed him to be five times faster, jumped and flipped back.

When his feet were facing the roof, his face was facing Sikong Hongyue's, who was drawing a shocked expression in slow motion.

Looking at her big green eyes, Ye Qi flicked on her forehead and sighed. "I have more important things to deal with." He then continued his flip, sat on her wings, and then, he used her back as standing as he kicked her to the ground.

"Your opponent is me." Shen Xiu, who had been merging with her cat demon spirit, was running on her fours with her claws covered in red flame. As soon as she got near, she waved her claws sending sharp flame blades toward her.

Because of Ye Qi's action, Sikong Hongyue had lost her balance, and Shen Xiu's attack got Hongyue, sending her flying back until she hit a wall, a burning mark appeared on the wings of the girl, who slowly started standing up.

Meanwhile, the palace, no, the whole territory of the Silver Wing family was shaking.

The reason for the shakes was the fight between Ye Qi's dad and Sikong Hongyue's father.

As it seems, Ye Xiu was having the advantage. Sikong Yi was ill, and just a fighter. Even though it wasn't easy to do with one hit, with time, Ye Xiu was able to take advantage thanks to his demon spirit's ability.

"Damn you! Old fart!"

Sikong Yi continued battling Ye Xiu. His eyes had sneaked down, and he clenched his teeth when he saw his daughter and soldiers on the ground. It seems that he needs to put his life on the line.

"Humph. I heard better insults from demon beasts." Ye Xiu replied. "And they don't even know how to talk."

"You!"

Meanwhile, as they were clashing, Ye Qi entered his void form and sneaked between the shockwaves of the battles.

Sikong Yi, who is a legend rank, should feel his killing intent. So, Ye Qi didn't intend to kill him at all. Since Yi was fighting with ye Xiu, Ye Qi could sneak behind and concealed his intent within the void.

While in void form, Ye Qi slowly made a bone blade out of his wrist and waited in a specific spot.

Like Ye Qi had expected the battle continued for his father's advantage.

Sikong Yi, at some point, found himself flying back. As Yi was about to balance himself, Ye Qi appeared from nowhere at the right moment.

Sikong Yi thought just flapping his wing and flying forward would be enough.

After all, as a legend rank fighter, a Gold Rank spiritualists wouldn't be able to cut his hard solid body.

But Yi was wrong at that point. Ye Qi, using the sword intent, on a blade made by one of the most fearsome assassination type demon spirits, Ye Qi could pierce Yi's back with the blade.

"Bastard." Sikong Yi clenched his fist and punched behind.

Ye Qi quickly slowed the time.

But still, the fist was heading toward him so fast.

Ye Qi just activated the skill of coordinates rewinding, his eyes widely opened as the legend rank fist was approaching his face. Just one punch and he may die. Ye Qi felt his heart skipped a beat at that millisecond.

Luckily, Ye Qi quickly appeared three meters back, and, quickly, he entered his void form again, hiding from Sikong Yi. In his place, a strongly compressed air hit and destroyed the wall behind him.

Sikong Yi had a deep wound next to his ribs. He put his hand there and turned toward Ye Qi, whose stab would for sure affect the battle outcome. Yi had been barely able to hold himself. Now, with this injury, he lost the advantage.

And, as it had been expected, Ye Xiu had more advantage now. Each one of Ye Xiu's hits would cause more wounds to Yi.

Sikong Yi just continued getting weaker and weaker, and soon, he was on his knees next to Ye Xiu.

"Hah… Hah…"

Sikong Yi panted as he was on his knees, standing in front of Ye Xiu, who was still in his humanoid goat form.

"Father, bind him with your soul force. I have a plan."

Ye Qi said as he appeared from thin air, some materials in his hand.

Ye Xiu could tell that those materials are used for the inscriptions. Although he didn't know what his son was doing, he trusted him so much.

"Fine."

Ye Xiu focused his soul force on his fist and punched Yi, making him kiss the ground with his face.

Quickly, Ye Qi stood up above Sikong Yi's body, and he started drawing the inscriptions quickly with his hands, taking advantage that the others on the ground.

Meanwhile, Shen Xiu was observing Ye Qi. She opened her eyes widely as her hands started shaking.

Ye Qi was making the Soul Shackles inscriptions pattern.

How is this possible.

She had thought only the dark guild and her family knows such a sinful inscription pattern.

"Ye Qi… You… how is this…"

As she looked at Ye Xiu, she could assume that the Snow Wind Family didn't know anything about that inscription pattern.

"I knew everything Shen Xiu." Ye Qi transmitted his voice calmly. "That's why we are here in the first place. To life the inscription on you."

Once Ye Qi was done with making the inscriptions, he made a hand seal, and the patterns entered.

"You know!" Shen Xiu transmitted her voice back, shocked. Could it possibly.

"Yes. Ever since the wedding, you were acting weird. I knew something off, and I realised you had the pattern. So, I took you here, to reach enough level to break the shackles."

Shen Xiu felt the world rolling on her. She needed to sit down and think about this one carefully.

After some time, while her hands on her face, she transmitted her voice back.

Shen Xiu didn't know how Ye Qi knew, but somehow, he knows. Even so, he is saying that they are here to free her. She had mixed feelings. Ye Qi didn't accuse her of betrayal, but even now revealed that they are here to take off the shackles. Could it be possibly didn't know that she would betray their family in the end?

"Sorry, you had to know it this way."

"What are you doing, Ye Qi?" Ye Xiu asked.

"Just a Soul Shackling pattern. Something I learnt."

Ye Qi answered Ye Xiu, who opened his eyes widely as well.

"Wait, since when we knew patterns like this." Patterns like this were known. However, how to make them was unknown.

"I recreated it. Now we need to use it if we want less blood to be shred here." Ye Qi nodded. "Now, can you help me shackle the souls of the others? Suppress them."

While feeling astonished by the fates that his son could achieve, Ye Xiu used his soul force to suppress the others. Given their ranks, the people on the ground were the highest elders of this family.

Ye Qi quickly put the Soul Shackles on them, making their lives within their hands. Although the Snow Wind family was a righteous family, what the Silver Wing family had done deserve a punishment like that.

Ye Qi passed the pattern to his father and Shen Xiu, who had her face turn pale as she didn't say any word.

-x-X-x-

Sikong Hongyue opened her eyes slowly, feeling a couple of burns on her skin and some damage. Who would ever think that tall red-haired bitch would be strong enough to fight with her. For real, Hongyue was a full rank above her. Although Shen Xiu wasn't as physically strong as her, Shen Xiu had many capabilities, from speed, and to that annoying fire that burned her. And those claws of hers. It made Hongyue feel that there were some skin burn cuts on her.

Standing up slowly, she watched. Ye Qi was sitting on her father's throne, legs crossed. Next to him was that red-haired woman. Sikong Hongyue was about to attack, however, she stopped as soon as she saw her father standing on the side, his face flinching while looking at Ye Qi.

She looked around her to see that even the soldiers that Ye Qi has cut were standing up with an ugly expression on their faces.

"What is going on. Father?" She asked.

"Don't move!" Sikong Yi extended his palm toward her, his face is pale. Even the concubines of Yi were standing behind Ye Qi and shaking. They didn't even dare to stand behind Sikong Yi.

She looked at Ye Qi. When their eyes met, Ye Qi put his hands on the chair and stood up.

"I will tell you, again, just like I told your Father." Ye Qi said calmly. "We came to trade. You attacked us. We kicked you. And now, on each one of you, there is a Soul Shackle. An inscription pattern that allows me, or anyone of my group, to take your lives with a simple hand seal."

Ye Qi walked around. Seeing how her father was looking at him, Hongyue couldn't help but opening her eyes widely.

She looked at Yi, her dad.

Yi clenched his teeth as he looked toward Ye Qi.

"Bastard! Are you planning to enslave the noble bloodline of this family? You dare to enslave a noble."

"I let live and I'm giving you a choice. That's noble enough to me." Ye Qi said with a relaxed expression as he looked at Sikong Yi.

Ye Qi then went back to the chair and sat down.

He leaned back and asked. "Is it slavery when you have a choice?"

"Tch… Do you think we would accept humiliation?" Sikong Hongyue clenched her teeth and held her sword.

"Do you accept death?" Ye Qi raised his hand and made a hand seal. "I've killed before. And taking your lives with a simple hand seal is easier than eating. Now, how about we talk back about our deal about the Blood Crystals. However, the price now is non-negotiable"

Ye Qi had his objective, it was clear.

"Kill me. I don't want to be under you." Sikong Yi showed his pride. Hongyue knew that her father was a sick man. Because of the disease they have in their bloodline, they barely live more than sixty years.

Hongyue could tell that her dad is really going to die. She opened her eyes widely. The teenager would do it for real.

"Wait, please!" Hongyue begged. Yi and Qi looked at her.

Qi had a blank expression while her father was biting on his lips.

"Don't kill my father! If you want to kill someone, take my life."

The daughter, despite hating the other people and considering them lowly, still sees her father as a father.

Sikong Yi opened his eyes widely. "What are you talking about, you dumb girl! Get back. Stay away from us. I'm the one who will die."

"Let me make a guess." Ye Qi drew a cold expression on his face. "Since you want to die first," he pointed to Hongyue. "I will take the life of your dad first. And then yours."

The two of them flinched, thinking they can spare each other's life.

Ye Qi raised his hand, slowly making a seal. "The choice is mine, not yours in the first place. You can choose to beg though in the next two seconds."

"Stop! Stop!" Yi pointed with his hand toward Qi.

Ye Qi, despite being the most little one here, looked like a real devil.

Sikong Yi may accept to burn in the depth of the hell. However, he would never tolerate the idea that he sent his young daughter with him.

"Father don't, you are still—"

"What?" Ye Qi said. "No one wants to hear my deal. But everyone wants to die. How am I supposed to be noble if I don't fulfil your noble wish of death."

All of the people looked toward Ye Qi.

"I will," Sikong Yi lowered his head. "I will do whatever you want, as long as you don't kill my daughter."

"And what If I want to take your life."

"I will gladly give it to you."

"No!" Hongyue screamed in the middle. The fact that Ye Qi has their lives in their hands made them in no position to negotiate.

"I will be your slave. Don't hurt him." She begged while looking at Ye Qi.

"Now." Ye Qi let a sigh and went back to the throne. "Since the Silver Winged family knows how to listen, we can talk with more ease."

The patriarch, his daughter, and the elders here, had no words to say. However, they felt at ease when Ye Qi took his hand back.

"Let me tell you again what you are facing. I'm a guy who can take your lives on a whim. Piss me off, and you already know the results. Is this understood?"

Ye Qi said.

No one answered.

When three seconds pass, Ye Qi said slowly again. "Am I clear? Answer me."

"Yes, you are clear." Sikong Yi swallowed his pride as he looked at Ye Qi. The others answered again.

"Am, I, Clear?" Ye Qi looked at Hongyue, who has yet to understand.

Suppressing a tear from her eyes, for the sake of her parent, she went on her knee and bowed down. With a hesitant voice, her pride is breaking to pieces, she said, "Yes. For now, we are your servants…"

"From now, you mean."

She forced herself to say those words. "Yes."

"Good that you understand."

Ye Qi nodded. Since he has their lives in their hands, he knows that they would be loyal.

Now, the rest of the mission is to make sure that he reaches enough level to free Shen Xiu from Shen Hong's fist. He can't just sleep while someone can take the life of his wife on a whim. He needed to do whatever he can.

Ye Qi doesn't like to enslave people. He is giving them choices. People like Sikong Family wouldn't even tickle Ye Qi's conscience.

Meanwhile, Ye Xiu relaxed his lips and looked at Ye Qi, thinking that this little kid knows how to put people in their places.

Ye Qi shook his head and looked to the side, thinking.

'I have watched the Godfather many times. I know how to act like the boss.' Ye Qi suddenly put his hand on his forehead.
