Playing with Ye Chen

Nanxiang Town, Chen Manor.

The Chen Manor was also a wealthy and influential family in Nanxiang Town.

Late at night, in a room deep within the manor, a bright candle still flickered.

"Madam, this is the tenant farmers' harvest for this month, as well as our Chen Manor's tax… "

The maid gently handed the ledger to the beautiful woman sitting at the desk.

The beautiful woman lightly flipped through the ledger before her and couldn't help but sigh softly, "The harvest is poor this year, and with the rumors of demonic calamity in the village, the tenant farmers are all in a panic. When Master returns, please remind him to reduce this year's collection… "

A hint of emotion flashed across the maid's eyes.

She herself was from a farming family and had been sold into the Chen Manor because the land taxes were too high. Hearing the manor's Madam show such consideration for the farmers deeply touched her.

"Madam is benevolent…"

The beautiful woman smiled and said softly, "After all, the New Year is approaching. With less tax, the tenant farmers can buy new clothes for their children to ward off the cold."

Next, the beautiful woman gently rubbed her swollen abdomen, her eyes filled with affection and boundless maternal tenderness.

"I want to accumulate some blessings for this child too…"

The maid also smiled, quickly flattering, "Madam has a heart of a Bodhisattva; the young master will surely be born healthy."

The beautiful woman smiled gently, "I hope so…"

Suddenly, the beautiful woman's brow furrowed slightly, and she let out a soft moan, quickly clutching her abdomen.

"Madam, you are pregnant. It seems that reading the ledger all night has tired you. This servant will help you to the couch to rest…"

The beautiful woman nodded, gently placing her hand on the maid's, and was helped to the bed.

The beautiful woman smiled gently at the maid, "Qing'er, it's getting late. You should go rest…"

The maid named Qing'er nodded and was about to turn.

"Don't go!"

In an instant, A clear, childish voice suddenly rang out by the beautiful woman's ear.

The beautiful woman's expression changed slightly, a hint of fear appearing. She tentatively called out to the maid, "Qing'er, did you hear something?"

Qing'er looked at the beautiful woman in confusion, "Ah? No, Madam."

"Did something happen?"

The beautiful woman forced a smile, "It's nothing, perhaps my spirit is unstable and I misheard…"

"You didn't mishear, Mother."

"She's gone, after I came out, what will I eat?"

The eerie, childish voice sounded again, this time the beautiful woman clearly heard it.

The beautiful woman fearfully lowered her head and looked at her own belly.

"Malevolent Spirit…"

Before she could finish speaking.

The beautiful woman's belly began to swell at a speed visible to the naked eye.

The next second, it suddenly exploded like a cracked watermelon.

An ugly child, entirely black, with milky white, turbid eyes and sharp teeth, floated in the air, grinning at the now-terrified Qing'er.

"Hehe, Mother, you don't want me to starve, do you?" the ghost child giggled.

Crack!

Just then, the door was pushed open.

A man dressed in luxurious brocade, with a gaunt face, sunken cheeks, and eyes bloodshot, walked in from outside.

"Master!"

"There's a demon here!"

"Madam… Madam was killed by it!"

The maid named Qing'er saw the Master of the Chen Manor and felt as if she had found a pillar of support. She quickly grabbed his leg and cried out.

But soon, Qing'er noticed something was wrong.

The Master before her had a calm expression, as if he wasn't surprised by anything. The ghost child floating in the air also looked at her mockingly.

Then, the Master's words sent a chill down Qing'er's spine.

"If you're going to eat, eat quickly!"

"People from the Town Suppressing Division have already arrived in Nanxiang Town; it's no longer safe. We need to leave quickly."

"Got it, got it," the ghost child giggled, looking Qing'er up and down as if considering where to start eating.

BANG!!!!

The next second, the entire room's roof beams were suddenly smashed to pieces by a violent and immense gust of wind!

"Hahahahaha..."

"Finally, I found you... Ye Chen."

"I missed you so much I couldn't sleep!!"

Inside the room, one Yao and two people instinctively looked up.

They saw a person floating in the void above. The newcomer had handsome features, a tall and slender build, and wore a blue and white mystic pattern. His hair was casually tied with a plain white jade band, his sleeves fluttered, and his black hair seemed to be coated with a layer of moonlight under the moonlight, wildly dancing behind him.

Especially the silver dark pattern on the newcomer's brow, which added a touch of divinity, as if an immortal had descended to the world.

In the eyes of the maid Qing'er, the man in the void was a god descending to the mortal world.

"You... it's you!" Ye Chen's expression was terrified, his heart filled with immense dread.

"Floating and traveling in the void, is this the Spirit Roaming Realm?"

"No, the aura on his body doesn't feel like it..."

But Lu Jun couldn't be bothered to waste words with Ye Chen. He descended directly, charging straight towards the ghost child!

"Another little brat!"

"An unexpected bonus."

The ghost child was terrified and instinctively tried to escape.

Although it was evil, it wasn't stupid!

This kind of guy could be dealt with by the servants its mother found for it.

The man in front of it clearly wasn't a good person!

But soon, a scene that terrified the ghost child appeared.

Countless wind layers formed a dense barrier around it, tightly trapping it. It couldn't escape at all!

Lu Jun slowly walked forward and undid the wind layer barrier.

He grabbed the ghost child's head and applied a little force. The ghost child's head instantly exploded like an airbag.

After finishing this, Lu Jun turned his head and looked at Ye Chen again.

Lu Jun grinned sinisterly at Ye Chen:

"Bastard, weren't you asking me to wait!"

"Sorry, I really couldn't wait!"

"Speak, how do you want to die!"

Ye Chen panicked, his eyes filled with terror.

He regretted it, deeply regretted it!

He had just been talking big, leaving a harsh threat before leaving.

Damn it, why did this guy actually come looking for him.

How much time had passed!

Not even two hours had gone by.

Couldn't even wait for one night?

So impatient!

Ye Chen gave a dry laugh twice: "Thank you, sir, for dealing with this demon for me. I am deeply grateful..."

Lu Jun instantly appeared in front of Ye Chen and, without hesitation, swung his blade towards his neck.

What gibberish are you talking about!

The demonic energy I captured has already locked onto you.

Are you still pretending to be a password here!

Ye Chen was terrified.

Did this ruthless man not even leave him a moment to speak!

Ye Chen dodged in terror but was still clumsily cut. His entire arm, along with a large chunk of lung tissue, was severed.

Ye Chen retreated repeatedly. He finally understood that this person was a complete killing god.

He then stopped pretending and stomped his foot fiercely.

The next second, Yin energy erupted from the ground.

Just as Lu Jun was about to step forward and cut Ye Chen down with a single strike, a sound suddenly came from behind him – the sound of the ground being broken through by something.

The forward-thrusting blade swung around and directly attacked behind him.

The sound of flesh and blood being shredded and blood splattering rang out.

Text reappeared before his eyes.

[Slain Demon, Green Zombie]

[Demon Essence: 3250]

Lu Jun looked around. Hundreds of densely packed Green Zombies, with green faces, fangs, and pale green skin, had already emerged from the ground.

Lu Jun's heart was filled with ecstasy.

No wonder he told me to wait!

This waiting truly yielded a great treasure!

Lu Jun could barely imagine how exhilarating it would be after he finished off this wave of Green Zombies.

His River Lord Subdues the Flood Dragon Art could finally break through to the second level.

Meanwhile, Ye Chen had scrambled behind the numerous Green Zombies, letting out a slight sigh of relief. He raised a finger to point at Lu Jun, intending to utter another harsh threat, but then decided against it.

He simply controlled the zombies he had raised over the years to attack Lu Jun.

He himself then fled, bolting madly towards the wilderness outside the city.
