Rise Of The Worm Sovereign

Chapter 892 Threatening The Red Bandit

'Who?!' The red bandit was taken aback by the sudden voice in his mind.

He was certain that he had not imagined it and it had come from someone. He didn't have to wait long to confirm it though, as he soon heard it again.

"Leave the boy and let him go." The voice spoke in the Red bandit's head.

The red bandit's eyes glanced around and saw that the Yang clan guards and the rest were unaware of the voice. Only he was the one who could hear it.

"Who are you?" The Red bandit questioned with suspicion.

'Communicating like this is not possible for most… a spirit tool or a Qi skill? No… this is spirit sense communication?' The Red Bandit tried to figure out what it might be.

He had known of several methods of communication that were present and he had seen many too. Usually it was done though a tool like a communication jade slip, but this was different.

The Red Bandit had once heard about certain skills that could utilize the spirit sense to transmit thoughts to others without the need for a Jade slip. This was of course, a rare skill and also a difficult one at that.

Even he didn't know if such a skill could be found in the Tieba city.

While it might seem superior than a jade slip, it actually had a lot of restrictions. The biggest one being its limited range. Unlike a communication jade slip that could work for thousands of kilometer, such skills only worked in a range of at most a kilometer.

This was regardless of how strong or refined one's spirit sense was. Anything beyond that would become too distorted and the other person would only hear a jumbled garble, if anything at all.

"You don't need to know that." The voice replied. "All you need to know is if you want to continue living, you will do as I say." It stated.

"Oh? You dare to demand that of me when you don't even dare to show yourself?" The Red Bandit replied.

​ For a few seconds, there was silence and the Red Bandit smirked.

"Just as I thought—" but then the voice started speaking again.

"The Red Bandit, Real name: Yang Ranran. Illegitimate son of the Yang clan's patriarch. Your mother was the daughter of a rich merchant and was favored by your father. Your father didn't take you in though and instead married other women from powerful families, gathering power.

Wanting to keep you away so as to preserve his interest, he never let you come close to Tieba city. You were a nuisance and became a bandit once your mother's merchant group fell.

Instead of taking after the merchant group you chose to steal from others. You continued your tyranny in nearby cities and regions, gaining power over the years. Ruthlessly slaughtering and killing the people as you pleased.

This was when you gained the title of the Red Bandit.

You continued this until you finally offended someone you shouldn't have; the An clan. Unable to bear the consequences, you went to your father for shelter and he helped erase your involvement." The voice explained the entire life story of the Red bandit.

Hearing this, the man was left shocked.

"Y-you… how do you know this? Who are you?!" Yang Ranran shouted in his mind.

All this was secret and no one should know this information other than him and his father. Even his old subordinates had been killed by him before he joined the Yang clan like this.

He didn't want any trace or link left behind, thus he had done everything in his power to erase it all. The Yang clan patriarch too did a lot and had used his power and influence to change the offending party from Yang Ranran to someone else.

Now the crisis from the An clan was shifted away from Yang Ranran, but if he went back to his old life, there was quite a lot of chance they might suspect him. Thus, he had stayed put here.

"Like I said before, there is no need for you to know who I am. All you need to do is follow my orders and leave the boy." The voice stated firmly. "Otherwise you might just find yourself being targeted by the An clan again. And even your father will be unable to protect you." It threatened.

The An clan was one of the righteous clans of the Long continent. While they might not be as strong as the top three clans of the Long continue, they were still quite influential.

They might not have wealth, but what they did have was martial prowess. If someone offended them, they would go to every extent to exterminate them. Especially when they were someone bad, like Yang Ranran.

The An clan had a reputation of holding up justice and getting rid of crime. Their members were spread across many kingdoms and sects, all of them being military officials or other such figures.

Because of this, the An clan held quite a bit of sway.

If news got out that the person who offered the An clan was still alive and hiding in Tieba city, it would not bid well for Yang Ranran. The Yang clan might be able to resist one or two powers pressuring them, but when several kingdoms did that, the entire Tieba city would notice it.

And it was doubtful whether the other powers of Tieba city would like for the Yang clan to protect one illegitimate member to this extent when even their interest were threatened.

Yang Ranran thought to himself and wondered what he should do next.

"What if I don't do as you say? I can just kill this boy that you have an interest in. You can try spreading whatever you want after that." Yang Ranran threatened back, not wanting to back down.

~shua~

It was at this time that he felt a pressure.

"Don't think that revealing your secrets is all I'll do. If I want to… I can kill you right now!"
