Dragon Emperor, Martial God

Chapter 685: Evil Eye

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

While Cao Tianlong was hit with immense pain in his heart, Ling Yun remained calm. He stored away his Devil’s Blade now that the six descendants of the Blood Clan were dead.

The Devil’s Blade was to be used against enemies, which the two in front of them were not. One was Cao Tianlong’s grandpa, the other was his father. They might have become part of the Blood Clan, but Ling Yun wouldn’t hurt them.

Cao Tianlong’s grandpa was Cao Junxiong, and his father was Cao Xingchang. They were both practitioners. Cao Junxiong was at the beginning of Xiantian Realm Level Four, while Cao Xingchang was at the pinnacle of Xiantian Realm Level One. They were the former and the current head of the family.

Ling Yun locked onto them with his divine sense and his Yin-Yang Eye at the same time.

“This is weird...”

Ling Yun’s eyes revealed a trace of doubt. Something was amiss with them.

Ling Yun heard from Chester and Paul that The Embrace was an irreversible and indestructible blood oath. Once the first contact was completed, the person would be completely loyal to their master. They wouldn’t be able to betray their master unless their master died.

However, that didn’t mean that they would lose their soul, their will, or their character.

Jim, Chester, and Paul obviously had their souls and characters intact. Their speech and actions were different, and they even had their own preferences and fears.

However, Cao Xingchang and Cao Junxiong seemed more like two zombies without souls.

“Grandpa, Dad, why aren’t you saying anything? I’m Tianlong! I’m here with Ling Yun to save you, what happened to you?”

Cao Tianlong also realized that something was amiss. They weren’t like this the first time he barged in to save them. They were only indifferent to him and didn’t want to be under the sun. Now, he realized that they didn’t recognize who he was anymore.

“Ling Yun, w-what’s going on? What should we do now?” Cao Tianlong turned to Ling Yun frantically.

Ling Yun’s face darkened. “Chester, what is this, why does it seem like they have lost their souls?” he asked without turning back.

“Oh, sh*t! Impossible! This is impossible!” Chester muttered as though he saw a ghost. “Not possible, he can’t possibly improve so fast!”

Paul’s expression changed drastically as well. “Honorable Boss, this is the effect of the Evil Eye. Only the high-ranking Blood Clan members can use it... Damn that Chen Jianwei. How did he improve so fast?”

The high-ranking Blood Clan members could use a single eye or a hand gesture to cast hypnosis. They could lure innocent victims out of the safety of their houses and have them walk toward the Blood Clan’s lair. The victims wouldn’t resist at all.

This power of the Blood Clan was known as the Evil Eye.

The Evil Eye could even control people’s thoughts and completely destroy their will. They would then become puppets of the high-ranking Blood Clan members.

Other than the purebloods, the normal humans who became vampires after undergoing The Embrace would need to at least reach the Viscount rank to be able to use the Evil Eye. It seemed like Chen Jianwei could already use the Evil Eye though!

That meant Chen Jianwei had attained the rank of Viscount in just two months. That speed was shocking!

“This is the Evil Eye?” Ling Yun’s brows became a straight line, and his lips pursed together tightly. He couldn’t help but be more worried about Cao Shanshan.

“Whoosh!”

“Whoosh!”

Cao Xingchang and Cao Junxiong suddenly flew towards Ling Yun and his entourage!

“Get back, you three!” Ling Yun bellowed as he went forward.

“Ling Yun, please don’t hurt them!” A strangled cry came from Cao Tianlong.

Cao Tianlong had to remind Ling Yun. He was afraid he would forget in a fit of anger.

“Of course!” Ling Yun answered. There would be no need to save Shanshan if he killed her grandpa and dad.

“Bam!”

A loud bang filled the air. Ling Yun’s body was on the receiving end of Cao Junxiong’s blow. He had already activated his Stellar Condensation Technique to its maximum, knowing that his opponent was at Xiantian Realm Level Four.

Cao Junxiong retreated after his attack landed. Ling Yun wasn’t hurt, but he landed right in front of Cao Xingchang, who landed another blow on him.

Ling Yun wanted to test how much different their abilities were now that they were both descendants of the Blood Clan and also cultivators.

The results surprised Ling Yun!

Cao Junxiong’s strength was actually even greater than someone of Xiantian Realm Level Five! Similarly, Cao Xingchang’s strength was now even greater than Cui Lao, who was at the pinnacle of Xiantian Realm Level Two!

A cultivator could increase their strength by a whole level even before they transformed as a descendant of the Blood Clan!

Ling Yun knew they must have used their maximum power without any reservations since they were like zombies now.

“Ling Yun, are you alright?”

Cao Tianlong was moved at Ling Yun’s gesture of receiving his grandpa and father’s blows with his body. However, he was worried at the same time.

“I’m fine...”

Ling Yun laughed bitterly. He didn’t do it to move Cao Tianlong. He was planning ahead for the battle with Chen Jianwei. Know thyself and thy enemy, and you will never be defeated.

It wasn’t in vain either. To his delight, he found Xiantian True Qi still flowing through their bodies!

This meant that their energy centers and meridians were still in place. As long as these were still in place, Ling Yun’s acupuncture skills could be used.

Ling Yun couldn’t discern why. Perhaps it was because they were at the Xiantian Realm before they underwent The Embrace, or perhaps it was because they were Asians. Perhaps it was even more so because they were newly made and had yet to fully become members of the Blood Clan.

However, Ling Yun was more inclined to believe it was because their governor and conception vessels were opened up and achieved the Realm of the Unity of Universe and Mankind. Their constitutions were very different from that of a normal human being.

Ling Yun could only slowly find out for himself after he captured them.

Ling Yun laughed wickedly and used the Dragon Fish Phantom Ability and the Shape Shifting Technique simultaneously. He left an image of himself at the same place and shot in front of Cao Xingchang and Cao Junxiong.

“Freeze!”

Ling Yun’s fingers were as fast as lightning as he tapped their acupuncture points. Ling Yun then returned to where his image was!

Ling Yun could call out nine images of himself after he reached the pinnacle of Physique Tempering Stage Nine.

Cao Xingchang and Cao Junxiong collapsed onto the floor after a slight struggle in front of the bewildered Cao Tianlong, Chester, and Paul.

“Their bodies have become more sturdy, like the Blood Clan...” Ling Yun looked at his fingers and muttered.

“Ling Yun, w-what did you do to them! Why are they not moving!”

Cao Tianlong howled angrily at Ling Yun upon seeing how his grandpa and father became lumps of meat on the floor.

“Nothing, I only sealed their acupuncture points. This will save us a lot of trouble...” Ling Yun laughed.

Ling Yun had even prepared some rope to tie Cao Xingchang and Cao Junxiong up. Each thread was made of Golden Black Devilish Silk and was dozens of meters long. It might be thin, but it was definitely useful. Even a Xiantian Realm Level Nine master might not be able to struggle free from it.

Cao Tianlong heaved a sigh of relief but still went to his grandpa and father’s sides to double-check that they weren’t dead.

Ling Yun went up to them to reassure himself that they were indeed immobile before calling out to Chester and Paul. “Come here, you two. Look after them for me. You’ll answer for it if something goes wrong!”

“Yes, Honorable Boss!”

Paul and Chester were once again shocked at Ling Yun’s powers. He was the model Satan in their hearts now.

“Not six but eight. They are in this courtyard. I’ll get them and bring them along too!” Ling Yun said to Cao Tianlong before going into each room and bringing the others out. They received the same treatment as Cao Tianlong’s grandpa and father.

Ling Yun activated his divine sense and flew back only after he found no other living beings.

“Just these ten people. However... there are twelve bodies in one of the storage rooms in your house. Do you want to take a look?” Ling Yun said in a small voice, afraid that Cao Tianlong might not be able to take the news.

“What?”

Cao Tianlong crumpled onto the floor with a pale face, unable to get up!
