Chapter 935: Yin Qi

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In a palace in the night pearl small world, an enormous mirror was arranged, and it was rolling in the air like mercury. More than ten people concealed in black mist were standing on both sides of the mirror, and all of them were disciples of Yin Manor.

After a moment, the mirror’s surface began to roll, and something rushed out of it. A black shadow descended at the center of the main hall—two yin phoenixes were pulling a simple bronze chariot. Once it descended, a blonde coachman holding a golden whip looked all around and turned toward the veil over the coach.

“Young master, we have reached the night pearl small world,” he said respectfully.

After a moment, a languid voice of a man echoed from inside the chariot. “Finally? God father sent me to this night pearl small world in the Origin World to subdue the ancient god’s corpse demon. After I do that, I will take a trip to the Origin World and see where my disappointing younger brother was killed and by whom.”

The disciples of Yin Manor were kneeling on the ground on both sides, and they said in unison, “Greetings yin son of heaven.”

The white-faced coachman jumped from the chariot and pulled open the curtain from one side. A young man wearing a black gown with silk threads walked out of the chariot with a faint smile on his face.

He looked at the Yin Manor’s disciples kneeling in the surroundings and said with a smile, “What did you all call me just now?”

“Greetings yin son of heaven!”

Their loud voices echoed in the main hall, and a satisfactory smile appeared on Yin Qi’s face when he said, “Stand up. You all have been in this night pearl small world for so many years, have you found the traces of the god ruin hidden by the god father in that year?”

When he said that, a group of Yin Manor’s disciples standing at the back came to the front and knelt in front of Yin Qi. “Yin son of heaven, the god ruin buried by emperor monarch has been discovered.”

“Good, good, good.”

After hearing such good news right after coming to the night pearl small world, Yin Qi couldn’t control the excitement in his heart. He could sense that after Yin Hong’s death, the destiny of Yin Manor’s young master belonged to him. Because of that heavenly destiny descending on his body, he was even able to learn that there was an ancient god’s corpse demon in the night pearl small world.

“Since you have already discovered it, let’s go and take out the ancient god’s corpse demon.”

Being an influential person, Yin Qi prepared to return to the chariot right away.

Yet the expressions of the disciples of Yin Manor kneeling on the ground became unsightly at that moment, and they said with a stammer, “But someone… has already entered the god ruin, yin son of heaven.”

“Eh?”

When Yin Qi heard those words, his expression instantly changed, and he coldly snorted. The presence of a true immortal erupted from his body, enveloping the entire master hall.

The main hall’s temperature plummeted, and the faces of the disciples of Yin Manor turned paler under the pressure of a true immortal. None of them dared to utter another word.

Yin Qi looked at Yin Manor’s disciples kneeling on the ground as he asked in a gloomy voice, “Who dares to make a move towards my stuff?”

The leader of the Yin Manor’s disciples said, “It was discovered by Leng Family’s young master, who also invited me and Nine Palace’s disciples to make a trip there. The ancient god corpse demon suddenly awakened, and we left the god ruin without wasting time there. After coming out, we learned that Leng Yan had obtained the information from the alliance’s true immortal Yan Tian.”

When he said that, Yin Qi suddenly smiled without saying anything and pulled back his true immortal presence. As someone belonging to one of the larger powers of beyond the heavens, he had some understanding toward the relations between all powers.

Leng Family was considered one of the top powers as well. They walked the path of runes, and they also had a late stage great principal golden immortal in their clan.

Once Yin Hong died, god father chose Yin Qi to be the yin son of heaven, the young master of Yin Manor. This meant that his foundation was unstable and he couldn’t be extremely arrogant toward Leng Yan. He had to give him the amount of face expected of him.

However, Leng Family’s young master only had the strength of a late stage tribulation passing stage, so even safely escaping from the ancient god’s corpse demon would be considered as extremely lucky for him.

But even if Yin Qi couldn’t do anything to Leng Family , he could make a move on the Alliance’s true immortal Yan Tian. If he did not settle this matter, then no one would fear him, a newly promoted yin son of heaven.

The entire hall turned extremely quiet as Yin Qi contemplated. There was no sound in the area at all.

At that moment, a carefree voice echoed from outside, and a red figure dropped at the gate. Its excited voice seemed to be trying to curry favor.

“The sudden visit by yin son of heaven to the night pearl small world has made this Yan forget his manners.”

After saying that, the newcomer went to yin son of heaven and showed himself. He then looked at Yin Qi as he bowed down.

“Yin son of heaven had rushed through the trip, so this Yan arranged a proper hall for you to take a rest.”

The yin son of heaven looked at the true immortal Yan Tian with a cold light in his eyes and a disdainful smile on his face.

Every son of Yin Emperor had some strange traits. The previous yin son of heaven, Yin Hong was extremely cruel and enjoyed absorbing the vitality of virgin maidens, while the present yin son of heaven, Yin Qi, was innately paranoid and extremely shrewd.

Before he even took the position of yin son of heaven, there was a rumor in Yin Manor that if anyone touched any of his things, they would be devoured by a thousand devils and after dying, their skin would be used as a cushion chair. As if to make sure everyone understood it, the Yin Manor had countless cushions of human skin, all of which were from the people Yin Qi had killed.

Although Yan Tian didn’t know that the god ruin was created by Yin Emperor, he was still the one who had given its location to Leng Yan, which violated Yin Qi’s bottomline. In the eyes of the disciples of Yin Manor, regardless of how true immortal Yan Tian tried to curry favor with him, Yin Qi would wipe his soul and add him to his collection of human cushions.

But true immortal Yan Tian did not know that.

“Go rest? Yan Tian, do you know why I came to this night pearl small world? I came to subdue the ancient god’s corpse demon buried here by god father many years ago. That corpse demon was bestowed to me as a puppet by god father.

“But alas, I heard something from my subordinates… This god ruin was discovered by someone, and the key to the ruin was even divided among a number of people.

“Something which originally belonged to me has disappeared. Yan Tian, do you think that I would still be in a good mood to take a rest after that?” Yin Qi said while looking down on Yan Tian.

After straightening up and taking note of Yin Qi’s face, Yan Tian suddenly recalled that he had used the location of a god ruin in a transaction. He had exchanged it for Leng Yan’s promise that after he became the clan leader and one of those who control the Alliance, Yan Tian could also advance and gain the position of a great elder.

Apart from the rulers, the great elders were the highest power in the Alliance. The night pearl small world itself could be said to form a faction, and the position of a great elder could be considered as covering heaven with one hand.

But Yan Tian comforted himself that his luck could not be so bad that the location of the god ruin which he gave to Leng Yan would be the same one as the one of the corpse demon reared by the Yin Family.

“Yin son of heaven, what does your distinguished self want to say? I cannot understand it. If you want to find the nurturing ground left behind by the Yin Emperor, I will dispatch people of the night pearl small world to find it. As long as I find any information, it will reach you first.
