How can I have a heart of a demonic god in my body?!

Chapter 637: Chapter 0632: Bountiful Rewards (Seeking Monthly Pass)

A blood-drenched ear fell to the ground!

“Ah…”

Yan Hanshan screamed, his trembling hand covering his ear while blood continuously flowed through his fingers.

“That was close!”

Chen Yu sighed.

This sight enraged Yan Hanshan even more.

He thought to himself that if he hadn’t been simultaneously facing a Sky Sea Realm opponent, Chen Yu, and the Red Flame King, all while panic-stricken and desperately trying to escape, Chen Yu would never have been a match for him.

Just then, the Yang Family Ancestor put on the Ice Cold Jade Armor and, along with the Red Flame King, came charging at him.

Run!

That was the only thought left in Yan Hanshan’s mind.

Whoosh!

He activated his True Yuan, fleeing at high speed.

“Trying to escape?”

The Yang Family Ancestor’s face was cold and imposing as he struck out with one hand.

Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi surged forth, transforming into a vast expanse of purple flames that rushed forward overwhelmingly.

The Yang Family Ancestor purposefully used a wide-range attack, making it impossible for Yan Hanshan to dodge.

But if he slowed down, he would surely be caught by the Yang Family Ancestor, and escaping would then be difficult!

Swoosh!

Yan Hanshan took out a Jade Pendant from his storage bag.

It was a life-saving item given to him by his master, which could only be used once and was not meant for attack.

As True Yuan was infused into the Jade Pendant, it suddenly emitted a powerful, cold Sword Intent.

Buzz boom!

A sword of ice appeared from it, majestic and instantly enveloping the surrounding hundred meters in a layer of icy fog, making even the Yang Family Ancestor’s expression darken, holding him from making any rash moves.

The Ice Sword spun in the air before arriving under Yan Hanshan’s feet.

Then, the Ice Sword, carrying Yan Hanshan, sped away rapidly.

The speed of that Ice Sword surpassed that of the Early Guiyuan Realm; even if the Yang Family Ancestor had not been severely injured, he couldn’t have caught up!

“Chen Yu, today you have thwarted my plans, another day I, Mr. Yan, shall repay this tenfold!”

Yan Hanshan’s voice of insane anger echoed through the heavens and earth!

He had spent such a long time planning, and it all fell apart!

Initially, if everything had gone as planned, the Yang Family would have been exterminated, and the Ice Cold Jade Armor would have been his.

Then, with the Black Heart Eleven Bandits severely weakened, with possession of the Ice Cold Jade Armor, all he needed was to eliminate the Black Heart Boss to wipe out the entire Black Heart Eleven Bandits.

Afterwards, Yan Hanshan could use the Ice Cold Jade Armor openly and legitimately, with his reputation not merely preserved but enhanced.

But all these dreams were shattered, ruthlessly destroyed by Chen Yu!

“If I do not avenge this, I vow not to be called human!”

Yan Hanshan’s teeth gritted, his expression fierce and daunting.

…

Watching Yan Hanshan flee, the Yang Family Ancestor sighed, “This child truly deserves to be a genius of the Heavenly Jade Sect, to have a life-saving item given by an elder!”

“This time, thank you, Guest Chen, for taking action. Otherwise, my Yang Family’s fate would have been dire!”

The Yang Family Ancestor slightly bowed in thanks.

Had it not been for Chen Yu’s assistance, the entire Yang Family might have been exterminated, leaving at most him barely clinging to life.

“It’s a minor matter; after all, I have also received favors from the Yang Family.”

Chen Yu did not take it to heart.

Following that, the Yang Family Ancestor returned to the Yang Family.

The remaining Black Heart Eleven Bandits had all fled.

Now, the Yang Family residence was in ruins, corpses strewn everywhere.

“Ancestor!”

The remaining members of the Yang Family all bowed together.

“This time, our Yang Family suffered this calamity. Fortunately, we had Guest Chen’s assistance; otherwise, our entire Yang Family could have been destroyed. From now on, Chen Yu is our great benefactor!”

The Yang Family Ancestor announced in front of everyone.

“Thank you, Guest Chen, for rescuing the Yang Family from crisis!”

The crowd immediately thanked him, most of them sincerely.

After all, they had previously believed Yan Hanshan’s words and wrongly accused Chen Yu. But since Chen Yu harbored no grudges, their admiration for him only increased, making some feel utterly ashamed.

Yang Fenghou stared blankly at Chen Yu, unable to believe that this was the same simple youth from the minor realm they had encountered before.

Chen Yu’s true strength was formidable, even surpassing Yan Hanshan.

By turning the tide, changing the unfavorable situation of the Yang Family, and reversing the course of the battle by killing both the Black Heart Boss and the Head-cutting Evil Man, Chen Yu had altered everything.

Due to the chaos caused by Chen Yu’s plan, Yan Hanshan had been injured and forced to flee.

Now, those present owed their lives to Chen Yu.

The following matters were just clean-up, unrelated to Chen Yu.

The Yang Family settled Chen Yu in a courtyard that had not been touched by the battle.

Chen Yu took out two storage bags, belonging to the Head-cutting Evil Man and the Black Heart Boss.

First, Chen Yu checked the belongings of the Head-cutting Evil Man.

“How could he be so poor?”

Chen Yu frowned.

For a mighty Half-Step Sky Sea Realm, his storage bag contained only six hundred thousand low-grade Primordial Stones.

He did not know that, as a Loose Cultivator, the Head-cutting Evil Man lived day by day; whenever he obtained resources, he used them to boost his strength, and whenever he ran out of origin stones, he went out pillaging.

Compared to the belongings of the Head-cutting Evil Man, the Black Heart Boss’s bag had more items, including one million and ten thousand low-grade Primordial Stones and various other miscellaneous items such as precious materials, minerals, Spiritual Artifacts, and secret texts.

After sorting out the spoils, Chen Yu began cultivating, refining his True Yuan.

The current state of his True Essence Lake was pitch black, gleaming with a faint light, devoid of any impurities.

After checking his True Yuan Sea, Chen Yu smiled and said, “Next, to exchange for a Sea Cleaning Pill, then I can completely remove any hidden dangers.”

Three days later, the Yang Family had mostly settled itself. This battle had dealt heavy losses to the Yang Family; now, only about two hundred clan members remained.

With so few people, if the Yang Family continued to hold onto its vast former territory, it would only invite covetous looks.

Now, the Yang Family could not withstand any further adversities, so they willingly gave up part of their territory.

“Guest Chen, are you comfortable living here?”

On this day, the Yang Family Ancestor personally paid a visit.

“Not bad.”

Chen Yu was quite satisfied.

“I have said before that if Guest Chen assists the Yang Family, there must be substantial recompense.”

After speaking, the Yang Family Ancestor took out a storage bag.

Chen Yu received it and immediately checked inside, involuntarily taking a sharp breath.

Inside the storage bag, there were thirty thousand Grade Essence Stones, which equaled three million inferior-grade Essence Stones!

The Yang Family had suffered severe damage, and to rebuild and recover to its former scale would take a long time and a massive amount of resources.

At this juncture, the Yang Family Ancestor’s willingness to give Chen Yu three million inferior-grade Essence Stones showed his generosity.

The most Essence Stones Chen Yu had ever had reached just over a million, so these three million inferior-grade Essence Stones were still quite tempting to him.

“Ancestor is truly generous, I won’t be polite then.”

Chen Yu put all the Essence Stones into the “Smoke-spitting Pearl.”

“Where, compared to the kindness Guest Chen has shown to my Yang Family, what are these Essence Stones?”

The Yang Family Ancestor said with a smile.

If not for the current severe damage to the Yang Family, which required a lot of resources for repairs, even giving Chen Yu four million inferior-grade Essence Stones would not make him feel it was a loss.

Moreover, given the Yang Family’s current predicament and the possibility of unknown dangers looming, there might come a time to once again ask for Chen Yu’s assistance.

“May I know what Guest Chen plans to do next?”

The Yang Family Ancestor asked.

Chen Yu furrowed his brows and fell into silence.

His original plan was to participate in the recruitment examination of Heavenly Jade Sect after half a year.

But Yan Hanshan harbored a deep-seated hatred for Chen Yu, and being new to the Heavenly Jade Sect and without support, Chen Yu could easily become a target for bullying and suppression.

“Yan Hanshan holds deep grudges and will certainly not easily let Guest Elder go.”

The Yang Family Ancestor added.

“I also hold deep grudges, and if there’s a chance, I will definitely kill him.”

Chen Yu’s expression was calm.

As for Yan Hanshan’s actions, the Yang Family could not possibly just stand by without retaliation.

“Guest Chen is such a genius, it’s not possible for you to always stay in my Yang Family. Only by joining a stronger force can you truly shine. Have you thought about this?”

The Yang Family Ancestor asked with a smile.

“I was initially prepared to go to the Heavenly Jade Sect, but now it seems inappropriate.”

Chen Yu spoke truthfully.

“I have another path here. Six months from now, not only will the Heavenly Jade Sect be recruiting disciples, but its neighboring powerful three-and-a-half star force, ‘Black Demon Valley,’ will also be taking in disciples.”

“At that time, I will send a few of the Yang Family’s elite talents there, and if Guest Chen is willing, you can go together.”

The Yang Family Ancestor spoke slowly.

“That would be very good!”

Chen Yu’s eyes brightened, and he agreed.

The Great Yu Realm was vast and boundless, with the territory occupied by a three-and-a-half star force being incredibly large.

Chen Yu had previously only heard about the Heavenly Jade Sect recruiting disciples, but he was not aware of the situation in the distant Black Demon Valley.

Compared to the Heavenly Jade Sect, Black Demon Valley was more suitable for Chen Yu!

“Now that Guest Chen is willing to go together, I am relieved.”

The Yang Family Ancestor said with a smile.

He needed to stay and oversee the Yang Family and could not leave.

But if he just sent a few of the Yang Family’s talented individuals on a far journey alone, it would be too dangerous and he wouldn’t feel at ease.

“Next, I will leave the Yang Family to handle some affairs, and I’ll trouble Guest Chen to look after things here.”

The Yang Family Ancestor spoke again, his eyes flashing with a trace of chill.

Chen Yu later came to know that the Yang Family Ancestor had personally gone to the Heavenly Jade Sect to lodge a complaint.

With the Yang Family subjected to such a catastrophe, they naturally wouldn’t remain silent. Though they couldn’t eliminate Yan Hanshan, they couldn’t let him get away with it either, especially since relations had completely soured, leaving no need to save face.

Subsequently, the news of Yan Hanshan colluding with the Black Heart Eleven Bandits and the Head-cutting Evil Man completely spread.

Initially, most people didn’t believe that Yan Hanshan, of the White Robed Jade Sword, would be such a person!

But with a little investigation, countless proofs emerged.

Yan Hanshan’s reputation was completely ruined, and even within the sect, he faced a lot of ostracism and ridicule.

Heavenly Jade Sect.

In a bitterly cold ice lake, there was a series of attic buildings.

Inside stood a white-robed elder, his figure erect, radiating an icy and sharp aura.

“Master, I must have my revenge and completely eradicate the Yang Family!”

Beside him, Yan Hanshan’s face looked sinister and venomous.

“Is this your matter? Do you still need your master to take action?”

The white-robed elder’s voice was icy cold.

“No, Hanshan will take revenge personally!”

Yan Hanshan shivered, then spoke.

“This time, you have caused trouble outside, damaged your reputation, and as a punishment, your master commands you to face the wall in the ice cellar for half a year!”

The white-robed elder’s expression was icy.

“Furthermore, if you cannot make it into the top three in the next outer sect competition, you need not come here anymore.”

The white-robed elder continued.

“Disciple obeys, I will not disappoint Master’s high hopes!”

Yan Hanshan said resolutely.

He knew that while his master appeared strict, he was actually protecting him.

Facing the wall for half a year was to ensure he wasn’t disturbed by external factors, preventing his state of mind from becoming chaotic.

And being in the top three of the outer sect competition, with Yan Hanshan’s abilities, shouldn’t be a problem, though his real target was first place!

“Alright, you may leave.”

The white-robed elder waved his hand.

Yan Hanshan got up and left.

“Yang Family, Chen Yu, just wait for me!”

Yan Hanshan touched the side of his face, where an ear was missing, and his fists clenched tightly.
