Chapter 277: The Shift in Power (1)

"I'm ready!"

Violet's almost transcendent face was now marred with dust, blood, innate bloodlust, and bulging veins around her temple as her eyes widened with resolve and the dark pupils surrounded by yellow thread-like irises shrunk abruptly.

For an entire week, she has constantly persisted through learning about arrays and performing them, enduring the mind-boggling pain from the Mental Acupuncture Technique, fighting beasts, and then having her nadian go through constant changes under Ja Sun's terrifying toxins that placed her physique under tremendous pressure and then constantly petrifying objects around her until she is left with nothing but the sheer will to be considered a monster. Of course, this was before she was also rewarded with a strange sensation of... having her thoughts run at an unimaginable speed under Ja Sun's multiple domains that enhanced comprehension and the strange artifact in the form of an orb with blue and red pupils within.

What she couldn't gain back then from Di Tian, she wanted now.

Recognition.

She was relieved by Ja Sun's promise that he wouldn't leave her. This gave her the strength to pursue failure constantly until she held the prize by his collar and have him recognize her as the monstrous talent he predicts her to be.

Admitting to her resolve, Ja Sun's gaze flickered for a second. He sat peacefully on his couch in the middle of the forest. Not losing his languid smirk, Ja Sun's terrifying bloodlust bloomed.

Ja Yin still dare stick around but Zi Ji was only by the edge of the region where Ja Sun's intent reached. Facing the full burden of the intent, going through the unimaginable sensation of her body being torn into multiple gory bits, Violet collapsed as she lost strength in her serpentine body that kept her humanoid torso erect.

Ja Yin was slightly better but then again, she never faced the intent directly but... 80% of it, if Ja Sun had to give it a number.

As things settled, Ja Yin quietly assisted Ja Sun with helping Violet on a mattress, at least her human top, and left her lower serpentine body to coil as it pleases.

It has been a week, she has done everything... well, many things to try and entice Ja Sun. Alas, she never knew about him going for four months without nutting as a challenge and his desire for control. He lets himself loose around Ah Yin and Bibi Dong because they were Ah Yin and Bibi Dong.

"How'd you get such a bloodlust?"

Zi Ji was within earshot right now, but Ja Sun didn't care at all. The story was so lame for him that the memory was long buried deep to the point that Ja Yin hadn't witnessed everything Ja Sun was.

"I killed, and I didn't care," Ja Sun replied, "That's how you get it, I guess."

"I don't care about who I kill, too," Ja Yin pouted.

"No, I meant, I've murdered innocents, women, children, elderly... and I was all too indifferent," emphasizing the point as Ja Yin stood rooted, Ja Sun yawned, "I never cared about the dead. Well, more recently, I think I don't want a few individuals to experience death even if remotely but that's just my bitch-side talking."

With that, Ja Sun covered Violet's body with a thin sheet. She may be quite vocal about not wearing anything but she was coming around. At least, when it came to sleeping with sheets on. Unlike a bra that prevented her torso to remain free, it was comfortable to sleep with a bedsheet. This chapter is updated by nov(e)(l)biin.com

Finally, Ja Yin inquired about something glaringly obvious, "What about the guilty? Did you ever kill someone guilty?"

Ja Sun looked at her speechlessly and then finally pointed at himself, "You're looking at him. Come on, keep up, will you?"

His lighthearted tone never matched the gruesome truth behind his attainment of such irrational bloodlust given such remarkable control.

At this moment, Ja Yin couldn't help but swallow thickly. There was a slight fervency in three of her eyes as she viewed Ja Sun in an entirely different light and Zi Ji wasn't any different but the two also understood something about themselves.

They could never kill indifferently.

"Well... cool. We'll train while moving. Lead the way," Ja Sun looked at Zi Ji, who kept tabs on Bi Ji even now.

Smirking devilishly as if finally getting on to the good bits of the journey, though, she would never admit this to anyone, even Bi Ji, she snarled, "Finally!"

"Psst, there he is. Shit, don't look in his direction so exaggeratedly. He's already a Spirit Emperor."

Ja Sun and his team aren't the only ones to make progress in their cultivation. Though not as exaggerated as Bibi Dong, Ah Yin, and Ja Sun, Yu Xiaogang had reached Spirit Emperor but he looked as gloomy as they came. The news of the humiliation he alongside plenty of other human spirit masters faced had already spread throughout the continent to the point that even villagers in remote corners of the continent were fearful of the sudden change.

Within Spirit City, no matter where he went, Yu Xiaogang would face the pitying stares of his colleagues as the dragon within him roiled and raged to reclaim his pride as a man and a dragon!

Yet, he suddenly felt his body shuddering as a soft whisper not aimed at him, a rumor, made him feel weak in the knee.

"I heard the Dean of the Academy mentioning that they would finally appoint someone to temporarily replace Supreme Pontiff and many Titled Douluo elders actually nominated Bibi Dong!"

"Oh, screw off you and your rumors!" the recipient shrugged.

"You'll see," the first one scoffed but this gave Xiaogang plenty of reason to rush to his master's quarters and clarify the matters.

After all, he wanted that position of power. It suits him. If he could become the Spirit Pontiff, not only would he be able to lead the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan to higher might!

As if something obsessive sat over his shoulder, Xiaogang continued to chant internally.

'I want it!'

'I want it!'

'I want it!'
