Chapter 1246: 18.84 First Grey Star - Crazed Blood
Barbarian King moved farther into the Mo Clan's territory in search of a formidable foe. Meanwhile, back at Chaos's detached mansion, the cubs slept soundly on the bed next to him when Ye Jingxia woke up suddenly, without making any noise. Chaos, who was watching the kids, saw the young boy's abrupt movement.
Chaos whispered, "Xiao Jing, what's wrong?"
"Daddy, Xiao Jing smells blood," Ye Jingxia said.
Chaos, who knows about the massacre outside the mansion but doesn't care about the deaths of the others but cares about the cubs' sleep, doesn't explain the situation outside.
"That's nothing, baby. It's late. Return to sleep."
"Daddy, Xiao Jing feels uncomfortable. It's hot," Ye Jingxia said as he started squirming on the bed.
Chaos was worried and personally checked on Ye Jingxia, only to be stunned when he saw the boy's shining crimson vertical irises.
"This is Crazed Blood. I thought you only inherited most of my Ice Ability, but it seems you also got my evil bloodline skill as well. It's even a first awakening," Chaos mumbles.
Ye Jingxia said, "Daddy, it hurts. Xiao Jing is feeling dizzy. I want... blood. More blood. Wuwuwu~ so uncomfortable~"
"Okay, Daddy, understand. I will bring you somewhere to ease the pain. But promise, Daddy, don't use your divinity, or else your body will explode. Promise, Xiao Jing?" Chaos asked.
Ye Jingxia nodded his head and said, "Xiao Jing promises. Daddy, I want to see more blood."
Sigh~
When Chaos is certain that Anxia is safe to leave, they teleport outside the mansion; it is just that as soon as they leave the room, another shadow enters it. Chaos meticulously covered the sleeping little princess and added more barriers around the mansion and the bedroom before getting ready to leave with Ye Jingxia in his arms.
Outside the mansion, Chaos placed Ye Jingxia on the ground.
Ye Jingxia looked around and said, "Ah! Daddy, why did you leave me here?" He started sniffing as if something that made him high was coming closer.
The place is empty, but the stench of blood is getting stronger and thicker. The barbarians assumed that the small boy was abandoned and that they would immediately kill him, but the Barbarian King sensed something more. He could sense strength greater than himself emanating from his small body, and he could sense a presence that could overpower him in front of him.
"Human. Child. Kill!"
A few barbarians had acted before their king issued an order. The barbarians, for all their weakness, and their young ones, seldom cry; it can be said that a barbarian baby never cries except at the moment of birth. There are no other instances. Human children, on the other hand, are different. They are fragile, irritable, and they cry a lot.
In fact, the barbarians detest human children more than anything else.
The other barbarian warriors believed that Ye Jingxia was just another human child, easily dispatched with only one blow, resulting in instant death. However, the Barbarian King saw with his own eyes—which have the ability to see through the strong—that the young boy before them was a monster disguised as a child, more powerful than any previous Heavenly Guardian the Barbarian King had encountered.
Shouted with urgency, "Stop! Do not approach him!" The barbarian king tried to stop the warriors intending to kill Ye Jingxia.
The barbarian can hardly follow Ye Jingxia's movements as the ten barbarians who attacked him perished horribly in a matter of seconds, with their heads crushed into an unidentified mash of repulsive flesh and organs, their limbs ripped apart, and their hearts dug out. Sadly, the Barbarian King arrives too late.
Ye Jingxia, driven insane by the scent of blood lingering around the Barbarians, dug the hearts of these attackers in that split second.
Covered with blood from head to toe, Ye Jingxia laughed like a madman as his eyes glowed with a deeper shade of blood and ecstasy.
"This is it. The scent that makes me excited. Haha, but... it's not enough," Ye Jingxia said with a wide and evil grin on his adorable face. There is even a hint of blush tinting Ye Jingxia's chubby cheeks, and his phoenix-shaped eyes narrow in delight.
It is unknown which barbarian spoke first, but he said what his mind had immediately thought upon seeing Ye Jingxia covered in blood. The barbarians cover themselves in instinctive fear of seeing such a scene because this is the first time they have encountered such a being. Wearing the fragile figure of a human child, yet the small body is full of strength and skill beyond what barbarians possess.
"Devil. Devil. Descent."
Ye Jingxia laughed more when he heard his prey calling him a devil.
"This is the first time someone called me a devil. Either way, play with me more~" Ye Jingxia disappeared in front of them and suddenly appeared in the middle of the group of barbarians.
They were all taken aback and forgot to react upon seeing the little boy in their group.
The Barbarian King shouted immediately as soon as he noticed the human child. "Disperse! Stay away from him!"
However, it was already too late for the barbarians that fell under Ye Jingxia's control to flee; in an instant, they were mutilated into hideous fragments; they were unable to even see how quickly the small child moved. His maniacal laughter echoes throughout the entire field in the dead of night, leaving a horrific scene of suffering and death.
Hahahaha~
In this scene, Ye Jingxia is in a different state; it is his first awakening, so he needs to kill more before getting tired and calming down on his own. This scene is very similar to how Hei Anjing loses himself whenever he smells blood, but unlike the little one, Hei Anjing has full control of himself and would stop as long as he wants or Ye Xiajie asks.
Chaos watched the whole scene with a nonchalant expression on the roof of the mansion and mumbled, "I don't think these barbarians are enough for him. Should I grab a few more for him to play with?"
"How about I help you solve this problem?" An adult male deep voice resounded from behind Chaos, but he didn't react much as if he already knew who it was.
Chaos asked, "Tun Shizhe (World Eater), why are you here? So you can leave your little tower now."
"With an heir, of course, I can leave anytime. I just dropped by to see my daughter and son. I think I'll see something interesting tonight. It's Xiao Jing's first Crazed Blood awakening. It would take longer than you expected. The bloodlines of yours and mine are strongly mixed in his body.
His Crazed Blood will be affected by my bloodline's evil nature. He needs to fight a bit longer than you expected," the man from the Tower of God said.
Chaos frowned and said, "One night is not enough."
"It's not. His bloodline is purely mixed among the cubs, maybe because he is the firstborn son," Tun Shizhe said. "How about it? Can you leave him to me for a while?"
Though both were merely frames with their own sentients, they do not share the attraction the major souls feel for one other. Chaos looked at Tun Shizhe gravely and did not blink, while the latter simply sneered at him evilly and carelessly.
Tun Shizhe said teasingly, "If you continue to stare at me, I'm going to kiss you."
"Do you want to get obliterated?" Chaos retorted back.
Tun Shizhe laughed as he moved his gaze from Chaos to the young boy playfully playing with the barbarians below them.
"I can kill anyone, including my main self but not these cubs. There is proof of my existence in this world after all. Lend Xiao Jing to me for a whole day. I will return him to you tomorrow night. He will be as good as before. I promise~"
Hmp!
Chaos said, "Do as you must. It's not me who is going to die if you don't return the boy on time."
"We have a deal, then~ I'll take Xiao Jing away after he had enough fun with the Barbarian King," Tun Shizhe said. "Hoh~ he's having so much fun..."
Beneath them, Ye Jingxia joyfully slaughtered a hundred barbarians who had attacked the Mo Clan by themselves. His body was a little scratched, but his blood would heal them right away; his father had given him the ability to control blood, which enabled him to improve his healing even in the absence of his divinity. It was not something he could control as his body healed itself.
A barbarian king, in the end, is not like the other barbarian warriors; he is more experienced and skilled than the others, and even though he is blind, he is still able to predict Ye Jingxia's moves and only sustains minor injuries from scratches. Meanwhile, Ye Jingxia was growing increasingly irate over not being able to catch his toy.
Ye Jingxia said, "Stop moving! I can't kill you at all!"
"Stupid brat! Who would wait to die just because you told me so!?" The Barbarian King retorted.
The boy cried out in imaginary pain, as expected, when a Barbarian King sneaked a punch that Ye Jingxia was unable to avoid, breaking his arms on impact. The Mo bloodline prevents people from feeling actual pain unless they are harmed by their family or significant other.
Ye Jingxia was angry that his arm was broken, even though it was healing on its own. "Wuwu~ pain~ pain~. Not even my daddy or father ever hurt me like this! You are a bad guy."
The sight of the little boy's human arms healing on their own, of his blood moving as if it had a life of its own and mending the child's broken arms, frightened the Barbarian King.
"You are not human. Humans don't have such kind of healing capabilities. What the hell are you?" The Barbarian King shouted as he transformed his fear into a fighting spirit and once again prepared to attack the young boy.
This time, Ye Jingxia was so furious over being injured by some that he combined his control over the darkness and ice elements, and to his surprise, the two blended together to form a black-colored ice that was an ice-based attack with dark elements that could damage or freeze its target as well as give them nightmares due to the dark energy tainting their souls.
Chaos and Tun Shizhe were stunned. Such a beautiful yet sinister attack is something very like Ye Jingxia, who inherited his parents' main elements.
Tun Shizhe mumbles, "Hell Ice. Though it's not as unique as Eternal Ice or Hell Fire, it possesses both properties. It's a unique ice that even Hunluan can't control." He glances at Chaos as if asking if he can use it.
Chaos said, "Don't look at me. I can't use such a thing that requires a pure bloodline of ice and darkness."
"So it's unique for him to use. How interesting. Such kind of ice can bind all those beings that live in the void. He is almost done. I will take him away afterward," Tun Shizhe said.
As Ye Jingxia looked down on the Barbarian King before him, the black ice transformed into a sword around him. The Barbarian King's eyes are a deep red that almost seems like blood, and the laughter that fills them almost seems like madness and joy, completing the enormous smile on Ye Jingxia's lips. To the Barbarian King, Ye Jingxia is genuinely the devil in human form.
HAHAHAHA~
"You are truly a devil in human form!!!" The Barbarian King shouted as those black ice swords fell on his body.
chopping off his limbs, letting the blood flow and making him die slowly; an unbearable agony emanating from his soul itself; he wanted to die sooner, but the ice kept him from dying, and the darkness kept his soul tarnished.
"AHHH!! KILL ME!!! JUST KILL ME NOW!!! ARGGGHHH!!!"
"Are you dying? I haven't played enough"
Just as Ye Jingxia was about to continue hacking the corpses surrounding him, a black-robed man caught him from behind. Ye Jingxia, covered in blood, was laughing and jumping around the Barbarian King not far from him. The strong smell of blood in the air was making him dizzy with unknown happiness.
"Those things are dead. They can no longer play with you. Come with me, okay, Xiao Jing?" Tun Shizhe whispered from behind.
Ye Jingxia was a bit startled and mumbled, "Father?"
The world-eating fragment grinned but did not answer Ye Jingxia's call; they were both instantly engulfed in the shadows and vanished from sight; this coincided with the three Heavenly Guardians' arrival at the scene, which consisted of a pool of blood that stained nearly the entire Mo Clan territory, a scene of corpses that no longer resembled corpses, and an unknown mixture of smashed flesh and organs.
They were nearly unable to contain their puke at this moment.
When they saw Chaos standing in the only clean part of the field, they thought it was he who killed all the barbarians.
Mo Xinyue calls, "Lord Chaos? Did you do this?"
"Hm. No. But does it matter who did it? The Barbarian King is still alive. I will leave him in your care. The rest is for you guys to solve and clean up.
Tsk! Disgusting," Chaos said before walking back to his own mansion not far from here and disappearing inside, ignoring the rest who were left behind.
The Barbarian King was surrounded by a few mashed fleshy bones that may represent his missing limbs and legs, while the Heavenly Guardians stared at him, covered in an odd black ice.
The Barbarian King was still groaning in his unconscious state, mumbling, "Devil, little devil..."
