Yama Rising

Chapter 627: Dragon Carp

Get out of here!

What the hell is that thing?!

His consciousness quickly receded back to where it came from. He was quick, but unfortunately, the golden sword was quicker! In the blink of an eye, it tore right through the clouds, hurtling straight towards Qin Ye’s consciousness with great ferocity!

BOOM!!!

Whoosh… His consciousness faded away. Back in Hell, he slowly opened his eyes once more. His mind was abuzz with a numb sensation. A split second later, his eyes blanked out, and he collapsed right into the ground.

“Lord Qin!” “Lord Qin, are you alright?” “Men! MEN!!!”

Fortunately, he regained consciousness quickly - within the matter of seconds. He promptly opened his eyes, only to hear the ragged breaths of anxious Yin soldiers scrambling all about him.

“Yes…” The Yin soldiers exchanged awkward glances as they responded. Meanwhile, Shang Yang took a step forward and asked with great concern, “My Lord, are you alright?”

“Yes…” Wang Chenghao walked over with bewilderment, only to look up with great astonishment as Qin Ye suddenly grabbed hold of his arm.

Wang Chenghao blinked - Have you finally come out of the closet and begun to covet me for my good looks?

“Don’t move.” Although Qin Ye appeared to be holding onto his arm, Wang Chenghao soon discovered that… it didn’t quite feel as though he were being taken advantage of.

“Brother Qin…” Having finally recognized something amiss, he looked up, only to gasp in horror when he suddenly discovered that Qin Ye’s pupils had turned a peculiar golden colour!

“Yes…” Wang Chenghao fervently repressed the tension in his nerves. He simply couldn’t believe his assessment of the situation - Is this… blindness?

And… despite the sudden onset of darkness, as well as the countless soldiers that had rushed over to assist him, how could he… possibly remain so calm now? Did he make the split-second decision not to shake the spirits and morale of the Yin soldiers around?

Without missing a beat, Qin Ye immediately relayed his instructions, “Firstly, arrange a carriage for my transport and help me board it. Then, summon Oda Nobunaga and Gu Qing.”

“Lastly, turn away all visitors for now. Tell them that I’m in the process of gaining new enlightenment, and all are forbidden to enter.”

“There’s no choice! Now, go!” Qin Ye barked back coldly.

“Yes.” Qin Ye spoke calmly, “I can sense that a foreign power has simply pervaded my body and sealed off one of my senses. Unfortunately… I’m unable to release this seal myself.”

Hang on… did Brother Qin say that… he couldn’t release the seal?

Doesn’t that mean that the seal had come from… a Yama-class existence?

Shuddering softly, Wang Chenghao immediately shelved these thoughts, and decided that he wasn’t going to let any other Yin spirits discover anything amiss with Qin Ye. The carriage soon arrived, and Wang Chenghao carefully helped Qin Ye board the carriage. Both of them worked with seamless tacit cooperation. It was only when the curtain of the carriage was lowered that he nodded to the eunuch-like Yin spirit standing beside him.

……………………………………………..

“Guard this place. Nobody is to enter!” Oda Nobunaga’s voice echoed in the corridor as soon as the door slammed shut.

“Could it be that there’s an urgent matter to be attended to?” “That’s probably the case… Do you think we might see a new decree being handed down in the next few days?” “Perhaps. In fact… don’t you think we might potentially even be receiving news of Qin Gardens Phase Two?”

It’s a good thing that Lord Qin handled the situation well, and he managed to keep things under wraps. Otherwise… Hell might well be in chaos right now.

Pfft! Qin Ye immediately spat his tea out all over Wang Chenghao’s face, drawing an incomparably upset glare from him.

Oda Nobunaga couldn’t help but pout in dismay.

Qin Ye: ……

Meanwhile, Wang Chenghao’s shoulders quivered as he stifled his laughter.

The Harken…

Truth be told, the Harken was a legendary figure whose name preceded it!

Gu Qing was also slightly taken aback. However, he appeared more concerned than anything else, “How long will it take before Lord Harken arrives?”

“Go to Chuzhou.” Qin Ye continued, “Observe that place closely, and report back immediately if you notice anything peculiar.”

Oda Nobunaga: ……

That has to be it. Its Yin energy is so dense and thick that I can’t even look directly at it.

“Gentlemen, there’s something I need to discuss with Yanluo Qin in private.” The Harken addressed the Emissaries in the rest of the hall. At once, Gu Qing and Oda Nobunaga gave each other a knowing look, before leaving the room together with Wang Chenghao.

“Holy crap! Can’t you have a little bit more respect for your superior?! Take a whiff at your fur! How many days has it been since you last showered?!” Qin Ye was just about to push the Harken off his shoulder when the Harken’s voice echoed authoritatively in his ears, “At ease.”

It was almost as though he’d just gone through a cataract surgery. The obstruction caused by the thick layer of golden light that sealed off his vision was instantly breached by the thin wisp of Yin energy that pervaded his eyes. Within moments, he saw a glimmer of light peek through the darkness. Following that, the Harken helped Qin Ye to shut his eyes while it continued with the treatment.

Qin Ye opened his eyes, and glanced around with his new-found appreciation for vision. His surroundings soon became clear to him once more, and then he turned his eyes to the ostensibly drained Harken that was resting on the table.

How could it drain the Harken of its energy?

Qin Ye raised his brows quizzically. Then, just as the Harken tore a rift open in space, he suddenly asked, “Why don’t I… come along with you?”

With that, it vanished into thin air at once, almost as though it were afraid that Qin Ye would follow it. Qin Ye retracted his gaze and lay lazily on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling as he relished in his own thoughts. After some time, he suddenly smiled.

At the very least, he could tell that what he had encountered wasn’t simple.

“That’s fine with me. I’m not a combat-type Yin spirit to begin with after all.” With that, Qin Ye shelved these thoughts for now and took a deep breath.

It was hard to imagine that the City of Salvation had grown this much over just a single year.

He could see countless Yin spirits crowding around the circumference of Qin Gardens Phase One, peeking in curiously as they chattered amongst themselves. Qin Ye smiled faintly as he withdrew his gaze.

Since the precious diamond in the rough has already begun to reveal a little bit of its lustre, then… why don’t I make it shine even more brilliantly tomorrow?
