Yama!

Like the Ghost Wolf bloodline, it’s another demonic bloodline that thrives by devouring ghosts. In this era where demons are rampaging the mortal realm, it is a special bloodline that is not oppressed, but rather, gets a blessing, allowing it to grow rapidly.

“Yes, immortal, as long as you can get me out of here, I am willing to do anything.”

The boy, tormented by solitude and loneliness to the brink of madness, quickly agreed. His agreement was predicated on the fact that the other party would not arbitrarily take his life, given that his life was saved by this person.

“So, it means, as long as you can leave here, you will listen to whatever I say, right?”

Feng Qing’an smiled at the boy, like admiring a piece of high-quality rough jade.

Just like the saying, unpolished jade can’t become an artifact, he didn’t care about what the boy had experienced before and what kind of character he had grown into. As long as the boy follows his instructions and fulfills his demands, that would be enough.

“Yes, I’m willing to follow beside the immortal, whatever your instructions, I will strive to complete.”

The boy, already sharp-witted, in order to seize this chance to leave this place, immediately knelt down without hesitation, paying his respects to Feng Qing’an.

“Alright, when you came in, you saw it as well. The Qi Country is raging in turmoil, the world is in chaos, hence demons and monsters are running rampant. You, an honest and upright child, got caught up in it and barely survived. Don’t you have any thoughts about this kind of world?”

“Thank you, immortal, for saving my life.”

The boy bowed again.

“Get up, did I ask you to kneel?”

Feng Qing’an frowned, showing a hint of impatience.

“Immortal.”

The boy quickly stood up. Despite his upright figure similar to Feng Qing’an, he was trembling slightly. At this moment, he was genuinely terrified, even experiencing an illusion that he might be killed at any moment.

“Tell me, what are your thoughts on this chaotic world?”

“I hope that the world can return to peace as soon as possible. All I want is a place to shelter from the wind and rain and not to go hungry.”

Even though the boy far exceeded ordinary people in terms of power, he knew that this power could not be used recklessly since it consumes his lifespan. Therefore, his wish was very simple.

“You want the world at peace, right?”

Feng Qing’an relaxed his brows, a friendly smile crossed his face again, however, his tone was somewhat suggestive and seducing.

“Yes, I want the world to be at peace.”

The boy did not get it at first, but facing Feng Qing’an, he dared not to think too long and quickly replied. He didn’t think anything was wrong. After all, he was just a young boy who naturally wished for a peaceful world.

“Very good, you have the intent to pacify the world, the desire to usher in an era of peace. I did not misjudge you. You are an ideal Virtuous King, destined to rule the world and begin a new era!”

Feng Qing’an patted the before-bewildered boy on the face.

What did he just say?

How did he become a Virtuous King set to rule over the world?

“Immortal, I…”

“What? Did I say something wrong? Didn’t I get it right?”

The words that the boy was about to say got stuck in his throat. He didn’t dare to utter a single word. How could he dare to say that the immortal was wrong? He was still on the immortal’s territory and could be kept there till death if the immortal wished.

“Immortal, you’re completely right. I want to bring about a prosperous era of peace so nobody has to fear those filthy things, to live freely as I did when I was young.”

In order to get out, the boy had no choice but to lie, saying something he wouldn’t dare to even think of before.

“Not bad, interesting.”

Feng Qing’an nodded with satisfaction.

“But, Immortal, I am weak and of low status. Even though I have the ambition to bring about a golden age of peace, I’m powerless to act.”

The youth expressed his feelings carefully, hinting that he could only imagine such things. If asked to found an era, he preferred not to be coerced.

“It’s good that you have the ambition, the strength, I will provide you with.”

Looking at the obedient and sensible youth in front of him, Feng Qing’an felt even more satisfied.

There’s a saying that it’s better to judge a person by their deeds rather than their intentions, because no one is perfect in their thoughts.

Regardless of what this youth is thinking or wishing in his heart, as long as he follows his instructions, modeling himself on the standard of a wise monarch, persisting until the day of his death, then he will indisputably be a Virtuous King.

As for what he thinks during this process, Feng Qing’an is not concerned, nor will anyone else be. What he needs is a ruler who meets his expectations, one who can bring peace to the world. Equally, the ordinary people, who are living in constant distress, also need such a King.

“Come, follow me.”

A strange wind carrying a mixture of foul stench and peculiar fragrance hit the youth directly when he left the Cave Sky with Feng Qing’an and once again stepped onto the land of Qi Country. The youth couldn’t help but sneeze from the odd smell.

Whoosh~

Two thin streams of fire instantly surged out of his nostrils, which shocked the group of trembling humans crouched in the corner.

“Where is this?”

The young man, breathing the outside air, looked around in confusion. The steep cliffs on both sides suggested that this was a remote place, yet the sight of the trembling humans crouched in the corner nearby puzzled him.

“This is a demon cave that I’ve just discovered. And these people, they’re your fellow human beings. However, they are currently the captive food of the demons. What you need to do now is to rescue them from these demons.”

“How should I rescue them?”

Cheng Ping instantly had a bad feeling, a chill rising from his heart.

“Of course, by slaying those wicked demons who are raising humans as their food. How else would you save them?”

“Wait a second, I…”

Before the youth could finish speaking, the chill that was quietly emerging exploded. The figure of the immortal disappeared, and in his place appeared a strong, pungent smell from above, followed by a terrifying demon with a cyan body and a thick serpent tail underneath his belly.

“Ssss~ You have some guts, sneaking in here, thief. You’re seeking death!”

The snake demon, detecting the unusual aura and quickly approaching the youth, was both shocked and angry at the sight of him. Without much thought, the snake demon swung its thick tail and lunged at the youth, ready to crush him on the spot.

“Immortal!”

The young man, who had been living a peaceful life until now, instinctively dodged to the side and tried to call out to Feng Qing’an, but received no response.

With the snake demon closing in, despite the youth’s constant evading, his dodging space was gradually shrinking. When he had nowhere else to back into, the youth, realizing that the immortal won’t assist him, finally awakened his ferocity.

Thick smoke poured out of his mouth and nose, transforming into raging flames. The dazzling magma Spirit Mark spread across his skin. The boy, who had been handsome, transformed into a humanoid demon, nearly 10 feet tall, spewing fire in the blink of an eye.

“What kind of beast are you?”

Such a sudden transformation caught the advancing snake demon off guard. For a moment, it began to hesitate, if it should kill. Since it was not human but a demon like himself, why slay each other? Wouldn’t it be better to capture human cities together?

“Die!”

The youth, now aware of what he should do, didn’t have time to converse with the snake demon. With the intense power coursing through his body, he unleashed a monstrous strength, lunged at the snake demon, and in the sight of a crowd of trembling humans, he tore the snake demon to pieces.

“I…”

After defeating the snake demon, the young man holding the head of the snake demon didn’t know what to do next. Just then, Feng Qing’an’s voice rang in his ear,

“From now on, you are the Holy King who saves the world. What do you think you should do now?”

“Free these humans from their shackles, then guide them back to the nearest town.”
