A beautiful woman, possessing the beauty of maidens, with a sculpted body and crimson hair tied back with an embroidered knot adorned with diamond pieces that enhanced her beauty.
She had rosy lips that made any man desire to kiss them, and soft, beautiful eyes.
She was sipping tea, unaware that her daughter was coming with her husband’s savior.
Before her appeared An Er, and beside her stood Clark, who was looking at her coldly.
An Er spoke:
• "Mother, Zo Long, whom I told you about, wanted to et you!!!"
The fairy Shen Qing turned her beautiful face and said:
• "Then, welco. What did you want?"
Clark arrogantly grabbed the chair in front of her and sat down, then put his feet on the table and poured himself tea.
An Er and her mother were looking in astonishnt at Clark’s audacity. Unconcerned by their shock, he spoke, saying:
• "I’m sorry, but the news I have is not sothing your daughter should hear."
An Er looked at Clark angrily, saying:
• "What do you an, you fool? What do you want to say that will upset ?"
Clark replied without any concern:
• "About your father, of course."
Shen Qing stood up nervously:
• "What do you an!!!"
Clark raised his hand, saying:
• "Good news, but it’s better that your daughter doesn’t hear it. Do you want to lose your daughter in the Refinent Conference or what?!"
Shen Qing cald down and ordered her daughter:
• "Go, An Er. And rest assured, your father is fine. He himself said good news."
An Er cald down and obeyed her mother’s orders.
Clark replied sarcastically:
• "It seems you’ve raised her well, for I see she didn’t disobey you."
• "Skip this and get to the heart of the matter."
Clark cald down, lit his cigar, and began to speak. He had a terrifying charisma.
Then he grabbed the mask on his face to solidify his position.
His terrifying burnt face appeared. It was madness for Shen Qing.
For who would do sothing so demonic to this man?
To her, Clark was just a kind, beneficent person who saved her daughter. But when she saw the horrifying burns on his face, his missing left ear due to the burning, and his left eyelid that made vision difficult from that eye...
Clark laughed as he saw her shocked face that carried both sorrow and fear simultaneously, and perhaps her view of Clark had changed. While he shattered her tension:
• "This is the face of the benefactor who saved your daughter and saved your husband."
• "I showed this form so you would know that this is the true form your husband saw, and no one else."
• "These burns happened because I saved him."
He was lying insanely, but what could Shen Qing do with an old demon proficient in killing, terror, and lying?
Shen Qing replied:
• "What happened? And what made my husband fall into such trouble?"
Clark laughed, saying:
• "Your man is an ordinary person. Like anyone else. Don’t think he can’t be killed."
• "I won’t be honest. What happened to him is due to the Winds of Assimilation."
• "And I, with all honor, saved your husband."
• "The funny thing is that both mother and husband are indebted to . Do you see that?!"
Shen Qing realized how cunning Clark was, and that he had naturally and maliciously co to demand repaynt of the debt.
But she didn’t expect the audacity of Clark’s request:
• "I want to start a business with the Zhong Nam Sect, and the biggest beneficiaries will be your faction, the Han faction."
Shen Qing’s heart relaxed when she learned of Clark’s request, but she asked:
• "What is this business that will benefit us?"
Clark laughed and said:
• "I will sell you a thod for refining the soul periodically and permanently."
• "My thod treats soul injuries and also strengthens them."
• "In this world, there are two ways to heal the soul: one is sleep, and the other is the thods of the Spectral Demon Venerable, the Spectral King."
• "And I can offer the beneficial one, because as the Dream Realm has now appeared frequently, which was just a part of the past and disappeared with the Immortal Venerable ’Immortal Dream.’"
Shen Qing was shocked. It was a crazy idea, and for Clark to possess such a thing.
She said:
• "Alright, but at least show that you possess this thing."
Soon, he displayed the mortal-level defensive Extre Move for his soul.
Shen Qing was shocked, saying in amazent:
• "Then, what do you need to make it?"
Clark laughed, saying:
• "This is what I love about managing my business: amaze your partners before your clients. Truly a great wisdom."
• "It will be a powerful invention, and we will all benefit."
But Shen Qing’s face darkened:
• "But the Zhong Nam Sect only accepts fairies and their husbands. And as I see, it’s true you have talent, but my sect prefers to acquire others, even if only in form."
Clark replied quickly and coldly:
• "Then, marry your daughter to and make official as part of your faction. And I expect this isn’t difficult for you."
Shen Qing slamd her hand on the table; the table almost shattered. Her soft eyes were glowing with anger:
• "Are you crazy or what?"
Clark laughed, then said:
• "This behavior of yours clarifies two things: either you’re disgusted by my appearance, or I’m not trustworthy and haven’t proven myself."
• "But as I see, I’ve already proven myself: I saved your daughter and your husband. What more do you need? Should I save you too?"
• "As for marriage, it’s only political. I won’t touch your daughter or try to seduce her."
• "Once I see I no longer need to stay with you, I will leave. What do you think?"
• "Or are you still disgusted by my appearance?!!"
Shen Qing looked at him with a cold face. She was angry and didn’t want to exploit her daughter like this. Also, she didn’t know her daughter’s true feelings.
She didn’t understand An Er. She had a childish view towards n. If she wanted to pay attention to a man, he at least had to be at her father’s level and strength, and of course better than her.
She had a strange admiration for soone like her father. But when she saw Clark’s character, she was tense.
Such a cold person whose face was half destroyed but still lived like this without any concern, as if it were just a passing thing of little importance.
Just what made us get involved with such a demon, for heaven’s sake?
Shen Qing replied after a long ti:
• "I will see what I should do and speak to my daughter. After all, this is my daughter’s future."
Clark stood up slowly, saying:
• "I will clarify sothing before you leave: this is your personal debt. Your husband has no involvent in it."
Her face darkened as she left. She knew the aning of his words:
• "He’s not a fool. I thought I had repaid my debt and my husband’s debt. But this fool won’t let anything pass by force."
• "I must be wary of him in the future."
anwhile, a call went out for everyone to gather.
The conference began!!!
Everyone gathered at their furnaces and lit fires as usual. It was about speed.
But this ti, each person could challenge soone.
Clark looked around. His gaze fell on an important person he hadn’t forgotten.
The person Clark was watching was nad "Guang Chang."
This man was of the seventh kingly rank in the sect "Fist of the Thunder Ruler."
This sect excelled precisely in the Lightning Path, and they used lightning techniques.
And what Clark possessed in ways to refine the Lightning Path was plenty, after obtaining them from Gu Chu Di.
But Clark, after training, discovered that the best refinent thods he could make with a high success rate quickly were Ice Path thods.
Specifically, what Clark intended to use was an Ice Path thod called "Triple Frozen Fists."
After starting with moderate fire refinent as a foundation, the second step would be formation and shaping, using frost and ice.
Clark rushed towards Guang Chang.
Guang Chang had harsh features on his face and possessed extre arrogance, to the point that mbers of his sect strongly disliked him.
But naturally, they weren’t resentful during the Refinent Conference.
Clark said:
• "Guang Chang, I challenge you to a duel."
Guang Chang and those with him laughed:
• "Are you crazy? You want to face ? I’m called within my sect ’The Refinent Demon.’"
Clark laughed:
• "Don’t hide behind your titles. If you have pride and manhood, face . I don’t see you or your titles as anything."
His face reddened with anger, saying:
• "It seems you have so courage. Alright, so what do you want to offer ?"
Clark laughed and said:
• "If I defeat you, you will get the refinent thods of the famous Demon King of Lightning. If I defeat you, you will present the refinent material: the Purple Stone."
Guang Chang felt joy. The refinent inheritance of the Demon King was truly wonderful! But Clark’s request was too much. However, he was confident of victory!!
Before the confrontation, Guang Chang and those behind him were all cheering for him. They wanted to humiliate Clark.
But what shocked everyone the most—and shocked Clark a little, though he laughed internally—was that the Zhong Nam Sect stood behind him.
More precisely, as if the Zhong Nam Sect announced they were with him.
They were the sect elders and Shen Qing.
There were spectators, but in a duel, if a sect stands behind you, it’s an explicit declaration of their support.
The faction of the Zhong Nam Sect, consisting of won—since the vast majority were won, and those attending the Refinent Conference were won.
Clark squatted down and began refining!!!
His hands moved rapidly in adding materials.
Clark had agreed to refine an Extre Move of the fifth rank: "Shadow Concealnt."
This move could conceal your presence from any tracker and any mortal-level investigative move!!!
It wouldn’t be able to reveal you. If "Shadow Concealnt" were of the immortal rank, its concealnt would be imnsely stronger, and it’s said it could even hide you from Heaven’s Will!!!
Also, refining this Extre Move was a point of strength for Clark because of his high attainnt (Master attainnt) in the Shadow Path, after all!!!
Guang Chang didn’t know this reason, because he saw Clark’s strong physique and thought it ant Clark was a Judgnt Path refiner, nothing more.
But he didn’t know that Clark’s experience exceeded his imagination!!!
To be continued.....
