Chapter 62: Chapter 57: I am here to kill you.

When Yao Jun and Guo Luo crushed the gate and entered the mansion, everyone in the mansion noticed the situation and reacted. The poor people that had come to sell someone from their family quickly ran to find a place to hide, while the guards and cultivators quickly charged towards the main hall, where the disturbance came from.

After stepping through the gate, Yao Jun and Guo Luo found themselves in a large hall. The hall was almost 500 meters in every direction, the ceiling being around 300 meters from the floor. The hall was mostly empty, seemingly used to receive guests before taking them deeper into the mansion.

The sides of the hall had several large pillars that seemed to be placed there just to look extravagant, each pillar being made from white stone and decorated with golden carvings of tigers and dragons. The floor was covered with a red carpet, a myriad of doors lining the walls of the hall.

At the opposite end of the hall were two staircases made out of polished wood that led up to two balconies that traveled along the walls of the hall. Looking around, Yao Jun couldn't help but shake his head. No wonder no one in the city had enough food or cloth, all the wealth was being spent on making this mansion look luxurious.

Not long after they entered the hall, the doors that were lining the large hall sprung open, a large number of guards and cultivators swarming into the hall. The guards were clad in simple leather armor, a standard sword hanging at their waist and a short spear hanging on their backs.

The cultivators were dressed in blue silk robes decorated with golden strings, the same clothing as the two young men Yao Jun had killed earlier. The guards quickly took up their formation, standing in a semicircle in front of Yao Jun and Guo Luo, the cultivators standing behind them like they were looking at a show.

The guards stood in front of them, pointing their weapons at them, but they dared not step forward or say anything. Little Thunder and Sirius were standing next to Yao Jun and Guo Luo, glaring at the guards. The guards were only normal people, how could they hope to go against two Demonic beasts at the 1st Mortal Earth?

"May I ask why this excellency has come to my home in such a fashion?"

While the guards were on the verge of panic, a wizened voice rung out in the hall. After the voice rung out, an old man clad in luxurious, blue silk robes slowly made his way down the staircases at the other end of the hall. The old man's silk robes were decorated with golden threads forming the image of a roaring tiger.

This was the old man that was at the middle stage of the 1st Mortal Earth that Yao Jun had seen while he was inspecting the mansion. The old man's head was bald in a few spots, only a few tufts of white hair decorating his head. His face was full of wrinkles, almost to the point where it obscured his features. He had a long, white beard that hung down all the way to his chest.

"No need to be so polite, I have come to kill you."

Yao Jun did not waste time, slowly stepping forwards as he spoke, his eyes focused solely on that old man.

"Shame, an extra friend is always better than an extra enemy. Kill them."

The old man spoke with a sigh and shook his head, waving his hand to the guards as he spoke. The youth in front of him was only at the early stage of the 1st Mortal Earth, even though he had two Demonic beasts with him, did he really think that he was invincible?

The guards and cultivators did not even dare think about not following this old man's orders, immediately charging forward. Little Thunder and Sirius let out low growls and were just about to charge forward when Yao Jun waved his hand and stopped them.

"Kneel."

Yao Jun spoke in a soft voice, his eyes lighting up with a gray light. He pushed forth all his Mental Energy, covering all the guards and cultivators with it. When that single word fell into their ears, it felt like an imperial edict. They immediately stopped their charge and dropped to their knees. None of these people had even reached the 1st Mortal Earth, how could they possibly stand against Yao Jun's Mental Energy?

"Open a path."

Yao Jun opened his mouth again, and the guards and cultivators immediately moved aside before kneeling down again. With Yao Jun's Mental Energy pressing down on their consciousness, they were incapable of standing up no matter how much they tried. This was the first time Yao Jun had truly used his Mental Energy after reaching the 1st Mortal Earth, and he had to admit that it was extremely useful.

After the kneeling people opened a path for him, Yao Jun continued to walk towards the old man, Little Thunder and Sirius following right behind him. The old man looked at Yao Jun, his entire face quickly turning gloomy.

The youth in front of him was only clad in a pair of short cloth pants that didn't even fit him properly. The youth was thin, even seeming rather scrawny, his entire body riddled in a myriad of scars. A large green scar in the shape of a dog eating the moon covered a large part of his chest. He looked like a beggar that had just walked off of the streets. But the pressure he brought with him as he slowly walked forwards almost drowned out all thoughts of resistance in the old man's mind.

"How dare you!"

The old man shouted out loud in anger, partly at Yao Jun and partly at himself for being scared of a small youth. The old man charged forward, his right arm quickly getting covered in a layer of thick wood. This was the old man's power, the ability to reinforce his body with wood.

"Go."

Yao Jun did not underestimate the old man, immediately having Sirius and Little Thunder charge forward. As they were charging forward, a grey light shot out from Yao Jun's chest, Little Gray flying out of the Demon God's Gate and towards the old man.

Little Thunder was the main force of the attack, using his thick and sturdy body to occupy the old man while Sirius and Little Gray used quick attacks whenever they saw an opening. While the old man was a slightly higher cultivation level than them, he was still only a single person.

Yao Jun did not stay in the back while his Demonic beasts were fighting, charging in right after them. The old man clad himself in a layer of wood in an attempt to give himself a proper defense. But his defenses were after all only wood. When faced with the claws of Yao Jun's Demonic beasts, or Yao Jun's sword, his defense was nearly useless.

"Stop! I give up, you can have this city! I'll leave!"

Since his defense was nearly worthless, the old man was quickly filled with wounds. He decided that his best course of action was to pull back and just let this youth get what it was that he wanted.

At the same time, he couldn't help but lament his bad luck. This youth not only had three strong Demonic beasts following him, but his power also allowed him to control lightning, wind, and Mental Energy. When the old man faced his attacks, there was nothing he could do but try to defend, how had he offended this malignant star?

"Did I ever say I wanted this city?"

Little did he expect the youth to continue chasing him, only raising an eyebrow as he spoke. The youth's pitch black sword swung sideways, fast as lightning, and sank into the old man's leg.

"Then what do you want?!"

The old man pushed the sword aside and hobbled backward as he shouted, his power had allowed him to dominate the other people of this town, quickly allowing him to become their ruler. But in front of this youth who had a lower cultivation than him, he had no way of even attacking. Was the disparity between their powers this big?

"I already said so, I am here to kill you."

The youth looked at him like he was an idiot as he spoke. And the old man remembered that he had indeed said so, he came here to kill him.

"Damn you!"

While the old man faltered slightly because of his wounds and the youth's words, the large purple, and black tiger had made it's way to his side. The old man tried to dodge to the side, but his path was blocked by a wolf with sky blue eyes. He wanted to get out another word, but the tiger did not wait for him, it's jaws clamping down on the old man's head.

With a crunching sound, the wood around the old man's head cracked and broke apart, the teeth of the tiger sinking into the old man's head with full force, crushing his head shortly after they broke through the wood.
