Chapter 95: The pain… it really stopped!
“Your Highness, May I know why did you decide to reveal your identity to me? Is there something I can do for you?” Chen Lao asked respectfully.
Ashen nodded with a smile with his hands clasped behind him: “Well of course, I need you to submit to me. Become my subordinate and help me in my path to the throne!”
Chen Lao’s eyebrows twitched at his words. He was a sect leader who had the right to choose whomever he wanted to follow. Also, the top ten sects weren’t under anyone’s command so becoming Ashen’s subordinate meant putting the sect’s well-being at risk.
Chen Lao, hence, declined: “I’m sorry your highness but I’ll have to decline. We top ten sects have never participated in the battle of the throne and I’d like to keep it that way.”
Though Ashen was a genius, the other princes weren’t less than geniuses. Also, in Chen Lao’s eyes, Ashen had just begun to cultivate and didn’t even have the power to compete with his siblings. In his eyes, even considering participating in the fight for the throne was an audacity that Ashen was committing.
Ashen acted to nod in understanding before his voice turned cold as fixed his gaze on Chen Lao with narrowed eyes: “When did I ask for your opinion? This was my order and you have no choice in the matter!”
Chen Lao’s pupils shrunk upon hearing that, however, he had expected this after seeing the two king realm experts surround him.
But he was confident that he could escape these two king realm experts, albeit with difficulty.
It wasn’t easy to make a King Realm expert stay without his wishes even with two King Realm experts.
He braced himself, preparing to make a run for it, but, at this moment,
Snap!
The snapping sound of fingers entered his ears as his eyes widened in surprise at what happened afterward.
“F-Formation?” He blurted out in disbelief as a formation appeared that surrounded him and the two king realm experts along with Ashen.
As soon as this formation appeared, the two king realm experts began to multiply. Soon, fog began to engulf his vision making him lose his sense of direction.
“An illusion formation? Shit, I fell into his trap. He must’ve already prepared this formation in this place beforehand, but I didn’t see any formation master present. Is one of these king realm experts a formation user? But then, how can he fight while controlling this formation?” Chen Lao was baffled right now.
His Vision was blurry and he didn’t know the direction of his sect. The formation’s illusion made him see hundreds of clones of those two king realm experts.
He couldn’t figure out which one was real and which one was fake.
And soon from the fog, a punch appeared that brushed past his face.
“No, I’m at a too big disadvantage. In this situation, only an area targeting skill can work.”
Thinking that, he began to float above the ground before condensing Blood qi around his fist and punching toward the crowd of clones of the King realm experts.
The red colored qi began to increase in size as it turned into a massive fist which then launched itself on the group of clones.
Boom!
Boom!
Staying in the air, he revolved on the spot launching multiple attacks in the fog, hoping to hit the enemy or at least make them appear.
Boom!
Boom!
…
And after some attacks, he found a clone dodging the attack: “Found you!”
He shouted before dashing towards him, not wanting to lose him.
Boom!
Chen Lao attacked which was blocked by the king realm expert. Chen Lao began to attack in a flurry in an attempt to get an opening and at least reduce one of his enemies. After that, he would be able to take care of the other King realm expert more easily.
Boom!
Boom!
Multiple explosions of intangible energy reverberated in the area as cracks appeared on the ground by their fight.
Chen Lao continued to attack without knowing that the other king realm expert had appeared behind him.
He was unaware of the fact that the two king realm experts could see him clearly. The illusion was only targeting him.
He thought that the other king realm expert was busy controlling the formation and wouldn’t attack him anytime soon, unaware that Ashen was the mastermind behind this formation.
The other King Realm expert, getting close enough to Chen Lao, used a palm skill as a green aura enveloped his palm before attacking Chen Lao from behind at a rapid speed.
Boom!
Chen Lu’s eyes widened as he was sent flying before bouncing on the ground and coming to a stop, however, without a moment of rest,
Boom!
The other King Realm expert who was originally fighting him appeared in front of him as Chen Lao blocked his powerful kick by crossing his arms.
Boom!
Then the king realm expert who had sneaked up on him appeared close to him before punching him in the stomach.
Boom!
They took turns attacking him without giving him a moment of relief.
While enduring these heavy attacks, Chen Lao couldn’t even hope to escape due to the fog that covered his vision. The farther his eye could see, only fog was present.
After a long beating, Chen Lao fell unconscious, unable to take a beating from two king realm experts, and to make matters worse, they were a stage above Chen Lao in cultivation.
He was at the seventh stage while they were at the eighth stage. Ashen had asked his mother to send these elite king realm experts. They were loyal to his mother’s side of the family.
While Chen Lao was unconscious, Ashen took out the Scarlet Mind Schine from his ring before handing it to one of the King realm experts.
“Take this and feed it to him. Remember, don’t let it suffer any harm, and guide it into his body with your qi!” Ashen instructed.
The King realm experts did as ordered, feeding the insect to Chen Lao.
Chen Lao, who was unconscious, suddenly screamed in pain: “Aaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrr!”
The King realm experts were astonished to see this. Chen Lao didn’t scream like this even when he was getting beaten to a pulp by them, but now he was shouting like a child.
After a few seconds, he calmed down as he heard Ashen’s voice: “Chen Lao, Get up right now!”
Chen Lao, however, didn’t obey and just the next moment.
“AAAAaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrgggggghhhhhhh!”
“Stop, Stop this pain AAAAAAAaaaaarrrrrr!”
He screamed as he pleaded.
“Just obey my command and the pain will stop. Now, get up!” Ashen informed and Chen Lu got up the same second.
“The pain… it really stopped!” Chen Lao said in wonder with a short of breath.
“Now listen, I fed you this insect while you were unconscious and its function is…” Ashen explained while showing him the same insect.
He explained the function of the insect in detail to let Chen Lao understand his situation.
By making him unconscious, he made sure that Chen Lao wouldn’t be able to obstruct the insect from enveloping his core.
As Ashen continued explaining, Chen Lao’s eyes widened in horror.
He knew he was now in Ashen’s Clutches.
