Chronicles Of The Shura Clan

Chapter 200 - The Incoming Feast.

Black Iron City, Four Seasons Inn and Restaurant

"Let's hope those little punks can make it before the big feast." Murmured Ling Chen with a slight smile on his face as he opened his eyes.

Currently, he was sitting in a mediative stance on the bed within his room. As for Azure, she was standing outside the door, guarding him and making sure that no one disturbed him while he was cultivating.

"It's been more than three years since I last saw those little punks, I can't wait to see just how much they've grown and how powerful they've become." He added with a pleased and delightful expression on his face.

Saying and pretending that he didn't miss them would be a big lie. There's not a day that went by where he didn't think and worry about them.

If it was up to him, he would have brought them with him in Heaven Suppression Region where he could protect and watch over them. However, he knew that he couldn't hinder their growth because of his selfish desire.

They might be his children and his families but he knew that he couldn't protect them forever. The world's fundamentally unreasonable, and naturally, there's no true reason or fairness.

Only the strong had the power to control their own fare. Only the strong had power over others and prevented others from controlling them.

It's a world where the strong devoured and preyed on the weak. One's status was decided appropriately based on strength and talent. In a nutshell, power decided everything.

Not only in this world but everywhere. That's simply the nature of things. It was not reasonable or fair, but it existed, and that was the way of life.

Not to mention his children were special. As such, they would constantly be the target of greed, hatred, and jealousy wherever they went because of their unique abilities.

It's also the main reason why he encouraged them to stay in the Divine Demon Beast Region to train and strengthen themselves. Meanwhile, he's also finding ways to improve his strength and power to better protect them from any threat as well.

As Ling Chen was deep in thought thinking about Ling Lei and the others, he couldn't help but remember the other seven unborn little bastards within his sea of consciousness.

Without any hesitation, he quickly closed his eyes again as he sank within his sea of consciousness.

The moment entered his sea of consciousness, he was greeted by a giant godly dark tree that blotted out within his never-ending white space filled with holy energy like an umbrella.

The giant dark tree was still grandiose and majestic as always. And no matter how many times he saw it, he was still in awe by its grandeur and mysteriousness.

Even after all this time, he's still unable to find the true secret and the origin of this godly dark tree which served as his Nascent Soul.

He was still unsure whether the giant dark tree was his true Nascent Soul or some other thing entirely. If it's really his true Nascent Soul, didn't it mean that he was a giant dark tree as the Nascent Soul of a warrior represented his true self or origin? In fact, his own existence was a mystery to him.

After taking a quick glance at the godly dark tree for a second or two, Ling Chen quickly turned his focus onto the seven fruits hanging on the thickest and biggest branch of the dark tree.

It's only been a few hours since he had last checked upon them, and they've already grown much larger in size.

"Badump, badump, badump…"

The heartbeats of the creature have also become much stronger. It felt as though they could burst out at any giving moment.

"It seems like you guys are almost ready to come out." Murmured Ling Chen with a pleased expression on his face as he was touching one of the Seven Golden Fruits.

As if the creature within that fruit could hear Ling Chen's words, it suddenly enhanced the sound of its heartbeat, making it stronger and louder.

Upon seeing the reaction of that fruit, Ling Chen couldn't help but let out a gratifying smile as he said." " I can't wait to see you too."

After checking out each of the seven golden fruits, Ling Chen shifted his attention towards the holy energy within his sea of consciousness.

The holy energy within his sea of consciousness had now become even thicker and concentrated than before to the point where one could even touch it as though it was a solid substance. It was like a thick and condensed golden mist.

"It's still not enough. I need more energy. I want to fill this entire space with so much energy that it would be enough for these little brats to grow into an adult after they've absorbed them." Ling Chen added after looking at the holy energy within his sea of consciousness.

Ling Chen didn't plan on going through the same thing he went through the first time with the previous six little devils. Not to mention, these seven new children would be completely different from the previous ones.

Ling Chen wanted to collect an insane amount of karmic energy to speed up their growth when they came out of their shell. He didn't plan on babysitting them as he did with the previous six little devils.

It's not like he hated it or didn't like it, but his current situation wouldn't allow it. He wanted them to become strong and mature as soon as possible.

It was also the main reason that he let the Blood Fiend Saint go despite the fact that he was trying to kill him. It wasn't because he was that soft-hearted and benevolent.

He knew that the Blood Fiend Saint would divulge his location to the Eight Ancient Families after knowing his true identity, especially after the fact that he had annihilated his Blood Fiend Gang that he's spent years building as well as humiliated him in public.

He would want to get revenge and make him pay for that. However, he knew that he wasn't strong enough to do so. As such, his best option was to divulge his whereabouts to the Eight Ancient Families.

Even though he wasn't able to kill him with his own hand, he would still be the cause of his death.

Unfortunately, the poor Blood Fiend Saint didn't know that Ling Chen knew of his plan even before he thought about it and was also the main reason he let him go.

Ling Chen's plan was to massacre the remaining Eight Ancient Families. He wanted to collect a large amount of good karmic energy to speed up the growth of the seven creatures when they're born.

And the remaining Eight Ancient Families was the best source. Just like the Long Family, the remaining Eight Ancient Families have existed for thousands of years and have done many evil deeds as well as hurting countless people.

They had many enemies as well as countless of people that wanted them gone but didn't have the power to do it.

Ling Chen wanted to serve as an executioner or a judge to punish them in their stead. If destroying the Long Family, one of the Nine Ancient Families had given him that much good karmic energy, one could only imagine how much energy he would get by completely annihilating the remaining Eight Ancient Families.
