Chapter 21: Become my Subordinate, Follow me as your master, Swear loyalty to me!
Mo Chen along with everyone had their eyes widened in shock as they witnessed this scene.
Some Disciples recognized this man as they took steps backward in terror, muttering in fear and shock: “W-Wang A-Ashen!”
“What? He is Wang Ashen?” Mo Chen questioned loudly in disbelief.
In his mind, Ashen was a newly joined weak disciple of the sect, however, the person standing in front of him was emitting a powerful aura, similar to a nascent soul realm cultivator. Anyone could tell that he was no rookie but instead a veteran.
However, soon, he calmed his mind, thinking straight: “So what if he is a bit more powerful than I expected? We outnumber him by a large margin, can he defeat all of us?”, His eyes squinted with a scheming smile: “Just wait, I will let you know the consequence of barging into my house like this”
Without even attempting to talk this out, Mo Chen gestured his underlings to attack Ashen with his eyes. Everyone nodded in response, Some took out their weapons while some were bare handed, all their weapons and hands were enveloped in fire as they began to approach Ashen slowly.
No one wanted to jump on an opponent whose strength was unknown. They desired for someone to attack first so that they could gaze at Ashen’s strength.
Ashen, on the other hand, seemed calm, letting go of Ren Li and Mo Qi, resulting in them lying unconscious on the ground.
Ashen lifted his right hand, pointing at the nearest underling of Mo Chen, He was an Inner Disciple, wielding a sword in his hands.
Noticing his action, all the underlings took a step backward in caution and surprise, however, they soon continued their march towards Ashen, attempting to encircle him.
Ashen, Feigning ignorance to their tactic, made a gun gesture with his hand, his index and middle finger pointing at the inner disciple from before while the other two pointed at himself, his thumb standing straight, pointing at the ceiling of the hall.
The underlings continued their march as Ashen bent his thumb, similarly pointing at the inner disciple as he muttered softly, his voice audible to all: “Shoot!”
As soon as he muttered this, a focused beam of chilling darkness was shot from his fingertips, leaving behind a trail of small peach blossom petals.
The beam was so fast that no one present was able to catch sight of it, only able to see the trail left behind.
Following the trail, everyone’s eyes stopped on the inner disciple’s knee which had a hole in it. The Inner disciple had disbelief and shock written all over his face as he gazed down at his knee.
As soon as his gaze fell on his knee with a hole in it, the pain started to kick in as his body became cold with his vitality being sapped away, He opened his mouth wide to scream, however, with his vitality sapped away, his eyes rolled backwards as he fell unconscious with a thud sound.
Witnessing this scene, almost everyone had their pupils enlarged in horror and disbelief at what had happened as they asked with terrified expressions:
“What was that?”
“What Just happened?”
“I think something left his fingertips that pierced Xiao Cen’s knee”
“I think that’s a skill”
Hearing them, Mo Chen couldn’t help but ask with an incredulous expression: “What kind of overpowered skill is this? Can’t he just kill us all if he aims at our heads?”
These words worked as oil in the fire as this possibility dawned upon everyone’s minds. His underlings who were already terrified of this ridiculous skill became horrified at the possibility of their deaths.
They looked at each other, wanting to just run away. They didn’t desire to die at the hands of Ashen today.
“Sorry Senior Brother Chen, I can’t put my life on the line, My mother is waiting for me at home” One young Inner disciple shouted before making a run for his life, leaving Mo Chen’s house.
Witnessing someone run away, the hesitant disciples left their reluctance as they too escaped for their lives. According to them, they weren’t the first one to run away, it was that young disciple. If Mo Chen was going to blame someone, it would be him.
They just wanted to live to see another day.
Most of the disciples ran away, leaving only six people in the room. Ashen, Mo Chen, those two beautiful core disciples and the unconscious Ren li and Mo Qi.
“Bastards” Mo Chen cursed under his breath, gritting his teeth in anger.
He turned towards the two beautiful disciples, requesting them to help him: “Sister Wuyao and Sister Lingxi, please help me, I promise to not bother you in the future if you save me today”
Xia Wuyao was a core disciple with ink black hair, chocolate Brown eyes and a voluptuous figure. Her forehead was covered by her blunt bangs. Her curvy figure was accentuated by the Phoenix Feather Sect disciple uniform she wore. Her shoulders were revealed as the uniform attempted to cover her giant breasts.
Huan Lingxi was also a core disciple with deep pink hair that tumbled in soft curls down her back. Her eyes were a deep, velvety brown, and her skin had a warm, golden glow. Her movements were fluid and graceful in her crimson red sect disciple uniform. She was a mature woman, possessing a graceful and voluptuous physique.
[Pictures of both in discord]
They both made a disgusted expression at his request, wasn’t he all-powerful just a few minutes ago?
However, they didn’t have a choice as they desired freedom from Mo Chen’s clutches, therefore, they nodded, agreeing to his request: “Alright, we will help you”
They stepped forward, standing in front of Mo Chen as they stared at Wang Ashen.
Xia Wuyao bowed slightly, requesting politely: “Fellow Disciple, I implore you that you leave today, We know that you aren’t in the wrong here, However, today we need to protect this bastard”
Hearing those words, Mo Chen’s eyebrows twitched, however, he kept quiet. He just had to leave today, then, he could complain to his family, gaining their help to suppress Ashen.
Ashen, who was fuming with anger up until this point, couldn’t help but appreciate the two beauties, however, they couldn’t stop him from punishing this fool.
As he was about to open his mouth, various notifications appeared in front of him.
[Ding! Host, Xia Wuyao is the love interest of Protagonist Han Yujin, marking her as a Heroine]
[Ding! Host, Huan Lingxi is the love interest of Protagonist Han Yujin, marking her as a Heroine]
[Ding! Host, Mo Chen is a small Villain of Protagonist Han Yujin’s life, marking him as a Fellow Villain]
Reading these notifications, a smile appeared on Ashen’s face as he thought to himself: “I wondered how Yujin left these two beauties alone, It seems he planned to win their hearts by freeing them from this Mo Chen’s clutches.” Shaking his head, he smirked: “Too bad for you that I am here”
Now, his plans were changed, previously, he planned to kill Mo Chen and Everyone who came in his way. He would have killed these two beauties too if they insisted on helping Mo Chen even after he gave them a warning, However, now, a scheme formed in his mind as he decided to take a different approach.
Since, Mo Chen wanted to make him his underling, Ashen would do the same to him.
He, calming down from his previous fury, smiled at Wuyao as he answered: “Sister Wuyao, I have heard about your beauty, however, it seems they did not do justice to you. I don’t desire to fight a beautiful lady such as yourself, therefore, I propose that you allow me to talk to Brother Chen alone”
“What?” Mo Chen shouted in disbelief with wide eyes opened as he roared internally: “Who Flirts in a situation like this? Wasn’t he after my life just a moment ago? Why is he smiling now?”
Wuyao also had a slight smile and redness on her cheeks appear on her face, however, she hid it from everyone’s eyes as she asked politely: “What if you kill him if we allow you to talk to him?”
Ashen acted to nod in understanding, raising his right hand with his three fingers pointing to the ceiling, he announced with a serious and loud voice: “I swear on my heart that I will not kill Brother Chen while we are talking alone”
Declaring this, he leaned forward, asking with a smile: “Is this enough for you to trust me?”
Swearing on one’s heart meant to put their cultivation on the line. If he broke this oath, it will turn into a heart demon, not letting him advance in his cultivation. Most cultivators avoided giving an oath on his heart.
Wuyao was surprised, however, she nodded calmly, displaying her agreement. She turned to look at Huan Lingxi, Gesturing her to follow her out.
They both took their leave, letting Ashen and Mo Chen speak alone.
Since Mo Chen had his life guaranteed, he was calm now as he asked: “What do you want?”
Ashen gazed at him through his nose, looking down at him, he muttered in a cold tone: “Become my Subordinate! Follow me as your master!! Swear loyalty to me!!!”
“WHAT??” Mo Chen’s mouth gaped open wide as he shouted in disbelief and anger.
