Rebirth of the Supreme Celestial Being

Chapter 482 - Pagoda Ghost Market

The man lowered his voice mysteriously, “Because you smell very fragrant.”

Yan Tianhen raised his sleeve subconsciously and sniffed.

“I’m afraid you can’t smell it yourself.” The man still laughed. “You are not an ordinary person, right? You can be said to be full of Yin Qi. We demons like your kind the most. Taking a bite will greatly increase our cultivation and strengthen our demonic core.”

Yan Tianhen was shocked in his heart, and he had some lingering fear. If it weren’t because he had commanded the lower demons of the Five Continent in his previous life, he was afraid that he would have been frightened to death at this moment.

However, it was precisely because he was in such a situation right now that he couldn’t show even the slightest bit of fear.

So, Yan Tianhen smiled to himself and said, “Since you can see that, it means that your cultivation level is not low, but this really is the first time I’ve come to this kind of place. Why don’t you show me around?”

The man looked at Yan Tianhen with a curious look. “You are not afraid that I will eat you?”

These kinds of people who were full of Yin Qi couldn’t wait to run away immediately as soon as they saw him. How could this one even take the initiative to invite him for a stroll?

Yan Tianhen was full of confidence. “Since I dared to come alone, how can I not have some trump cards to rely on? You also look like a smart person. It’s better to have one more friend than one more enemy. What do you think?”

It was probably because it was that person’s first time seeing someone like Yan Tianhen. Originally, he’d planned to kill Yan Tianhen, but at this time he suddenly changed his mind.

“What you said also makes sense. I happen to be in a good mood these days, and I have nothing to do. It is good to make more friends.” The young man took the initiative to introduce himself, “My name is Li Mo, and I belong to the clan of Earth Demons. You don’t look like a demon, but instead, look like a human?”

When Yan Tianhen heard this, he knew slightly more about this demon in his heart. No wonder this demon could smell the Yin Qi on his body.

According to the innate strength of their race, demons were divided into, Divine Devils, Earth Demons, Ignorant Demons, Beast Demons, and Teal Ghosts. Since Divine Devils had almost disappeared these days, Earth Demons were the rulers of the demon clan, and the number was very small. An Earth Demon would almost always become the leader of a group of demons as soon as it appeared. Moreover, because Earth Demons were the closest to Divine Devils, they were very sensitive to Divine Devils.

Yan Tianhen had only seen one Earth Demon in his previous life. He didn’t expect that he had accidentally strayed into the Pagoda Ghost Market in this life and saw one Earth Demon at once.

Once he thought about that dead demon who said something provocative just now, he couldn’t help but feel a sense of sympathy.

The demon clan’s bloodline suppression was stronger than that of humans, and it was almost an extravagant wish to challenge a demon with a higher bloodline unless their years of cultivation were very different.

It was no wonder that Li Mo took down that seemingly powerful demon so easily.

Yan Tianhen nodded and said, “I am indeed a human.”

Li Mo’s eyeballs turned slightly. “Humans can actually enter the demon clan’s Ghost Market? It seems that the guy who brought you here wants your life.”

Li Mo added, “The Pagoda Ghost Market has no fixed trading rules. It’s pretty much a black market. It is only open to demons and demonic cultivators. If you let other demons discover that someone like you have broken into the Pagoda Ghost Market, you will be killed.”

Yan Tianhen asked, “Then how can I leave?”

Li Mo looked at him and smiled. “Countless human cultivators have no opportunity to step into the Pagoda Ghost Market at all. You just got here, yet now you are thinking about leaving? Is there nothing that attracts you in this Pagoda Ghost Market?”

Yan Tianhen waved his hand quickly. “It’s a bit interesting, but my family is still waiting for me outside, so I can’t stay here too long.”

Li Mo squinted a pair of narrow eyes and stared at Yan Tianhen for a moment, and said, “I was almost fooled by you. In reality, there is no magic treasure that you can depend on. You were simply deceived into coming here, right?”

Yan Tianhen shook his head. “I’m not, I wasn’t.”

From the beginning, Li Mo felt that Yan Tianhen’s cultivation level was not high and that he really smelled so fragrant, so he had some crooked thoughts about him. It was only because he had been acting on impulse for a long time, plus he was baffled by what strange treasure Yan Tianhen had in his body, so he suddenly changed his mind and wanted to befriend Yan Tianhen. Right now, when he saw that Yan Tianhen had nothing to rely on, he started to have bad thoughts again.

Realizing that Li Mo’s gaze became more and more dangerous, Yan Tianhen wanted to retreat–even if he had unlocked half of his demonic blood, he wouldn’t necessarily be a match for an Earth Demon who had lived for hundreds of years!

Moreover, demons could improve their bloodline realm by devouring higher demons. If an Earth Demon devoured a Divine Devil, they could then replace him as a new Divine Devil.

Although Earth Demons were subservient to the Divine Devils, they were always thinking about rebelling against them and obtaining a higher bloodline. Yan Tianhen could still understand this in his heart.

Li Mo took a step closer to him.

“Why is there a human cultivator full of Yin Qi here?” A woman’s voice came, and she was wearing a floor-length dress and a hairpin ring. She looked bejeweled, very rich, and graceful.

That face was also very good-looking, enchanting yet pure. It was very attractive to men.

Hearing this, Li Mo turned to the woman and said, “You’re not waiting by the Demon Emperor’s side anymore? How come you have time to visit this kind of place?”

The woman’s purple pupils locked onto Yan Tianhen firmly. She licked the corners of her lips, and said, “I came out to find some good things for the Demon Emperor. Li Mo, the one behind you, isn’t he a good tribute to pay to the Demon Emperor? Quickly hand him over, so that I can also try him out for the Demon Emperor first.”

Li Mo couldn’t bear to see anyone snatching away the things he wanted, so he immediately became protective. He sneered and said, “I saw this person first. Don’t even think about him.”

“Oh.” The woman sneered. “Since we can’t get anywhere with a discussion, we should each depend on our own abilities!”

As soon as her voice fell, a thick black mist appeared in front of Yan Tianhen’s eyes, and a sharp claw grabbed towards his neck.

Yan Tianhen swiftly retreated and flicked a Yin Flame whip towards the claw.

The woman seemed to be too confident in herself. She didn’t think Yan Tianhen’s Yin Flame whip would be anything powerful, and instead of retreating, she actually used her hand to directly grab the Yin Flame whip.

However, with only a scream of “Ah!”, one of the demon’s hands was melted by the whip’s flames.

“What are you?” Li Mo, who had been helping Yan Tianhen, suddenly reverted to a human body with a snake tail as he stared at Yan Tianhen with his pupils dilated.

Yan Tianhen squeezed the whip and said, “If people don’t offend me, I won’t offend people. I said it earlier, I have something to rely on.”

The female demon rolled around in pain. A white wrist had fallen on the ground and turned into an ugly black limb. She was so angry from it, she broke her clothes and turned into a human-like demon with two horns on her head and a long and thin tail behind her. In the blink of an eye, she jumped in front of Yan Tianhen, and a bloody mouth full of fangs was about to bite at his head.

Just at this moment, a gust of wind blew by, and only a loud Boom was heard. The female demon was actually sent flying by a sweep from a sleeve.

Yan Tianhen looked at the stalwart man standing in front of him with a bit of astonishment. After a while, he put away the Yin Flame that had already been burning in his palm and curled his lips slightly.

“Venerable Emperor!” Li Mo stared at the man in front of him in amazement and quickly lowered his head as he retreated.

As soon as Lie Fenkong appeared, the entire Pagoda Ghost Market went quiet and dared not make even the slightest sound, which showed Lie Fenkong’s status and position in the Ghost Market.

The corner of Lie Fenkong’s mouth was upturned, but his eyes were cold. “You’re not even aware of a foreign weapon spirit’s intrusion, yet all you can think about is harming people! Moron!”

Li Mo’s face and ears were red. “I couldn’t recognize people well, that was my blunder.”

As for harming others… Isn’t this a common thing?

Lie Fenkong glanced at the female demon who was still groaning on the ground and showed a look of slight disgust. If it wasn’t for her good-looking human form, he wouldn’t have allowed such a low-level demon to serve by his side. But he didn’t think that she merely had a good appearance but had no brain and would actually try to obtain anyone she wanted.

As soon as Lie Fenkong raised his hand, a blazing fire burned the female demon who had already transformed back into her true form. With a miserable shriek, the female demon turned into ashes, and not even a residue was left.

Li Mo’s complexion changed slightly.

Lie Fenkong turned to Yan Tianhen and said, “I have disturbed you. I didn’t discipline my subordinates well.”

Yan Tianhen tilted his head and looked at Lie Fenkong. He recalled when he was participating in the Hundred Families Gathering before, this guy also specially left a clone in the peach blossom forest to scare him.

Yan Tianhen asked, “Did you rush here just to rescue me?”

“Naturally.”

Yan Tianhen asked, “You’ve followed me for so long, so why didn’t you show up before?”

Lie Fenkong paused. “How did you know?”

Yan Tianhen hummed twice without explaining. In fact, he was thinking in his heart, If it wasn’t for half of his demon blood suddenly becoming unsealed, how could he easily find a trace of Lie Fenkong?

Moreover, even if he couldn’t find out, according to Lie Fenkong’s damned nature in his previous life, he must have been following Yan Tianhen.

In his previous life, Yan Tianhen asked Lie Fenkong specifically about the reason, and the answer given by Lie Fenkong made him unable to doubt or refute–

Who let you also be a Divine Devil?

Ever since the Divine Devils were sealed in the Great Demon-Sealing Array, the entire clan had begun to decline. There were probably no more than a hundred pure Divine Devils remaining, and most of them were in the Nine Lands.

The Divine Devils in small realms were both invincible and lonely. It wasn’t incomprehensible that they wanted to find a companion who could stand shoulder to shoulder with them.

Yan Tianhen was such an existence to Lie Fenkong.

It’s just that Lie Fenkong had always kept a low profile and was very patient. He wouldn’t let Yan Tianhen know of his existence until Yan Tianhen found himself in a desperate situation.

Yan Tianhen pulled back his thoughts, smiled knowingly at Lie Fenkong, and said, “You and I both belong to the Divine Devil clan. If you don’t follow me, don’t tell me that you’ll follow others?”

Lie Fenkong’s long eyebrows raised, expressing his surprise.

Li Mo suddenly raised his head and stared at Yan Tianhen in disbelief — Divine Devil?

Yan Tianhen blinked at Li Mo. “I only carried some magic treasures to hide my aura. As I said, since I dared to come here, I naturally have something to rely on.”

Li Mo’s heart was beating. He subconsciously looked towards the place where the female demon had died and couldn’t help but secretly feel thankful that he hadn’t really attacked Yan Tianhen yet.

The entire Demon Realm of the Five Continents knew that the Demon Emperor Lie Fenkong was looking for a half-demon, half-human boy, but few people knew exactly who was the person who could captivate Lie Fenkong’s attention.

Now, I’m afraid it’s the boy in front of me.
