Return Of The Demon

Once the result was announced, it was like a spell was broken. The next moment, a loud cheer erupted in the room. It was not only for Zhang Zi but also for Bai Yun.

The organizers ran to the two of them to heal them. Both Bai Yun and Zhang ZI would have been covered in bandages like mummies if it was up to them. But they both declined their services and only accepted basic first aid and some common healing pills which the Hunter Union was providing for free.

Once it was over, it was time to present the awards. Of the partic.i.p.ants, Zhang Zi, Long Tian, Gong Ming, Song Hui, and Meng Qi won the gold cards. The others did not, but they were all given a chance to join a major power or the hunters union. This was usually not offered, but a special exception was made due to their astounding results in the Insect World.

After this was the reward presentation. Zhang Zi, who was the first place won a foundation establishment pill. This was also a pill that had many different recipes for its creation, even though all of them were only at the qi cla.s.s. A foundation establishment pill would allow one to have a much higher chance of breaking through to the foundation establishment realm. There was also a slight chance to improve the quality of the foundation one would gain upon reaching foundation establishment. The better the quality and rank of the pill, the better the effects would be.

Bai Yun, who was in second place got some single-colored incense. It was something that would help calm down someone who smelled the incense, allowing them to both cultivate and master techniques at a faster speed. The more colors there were, the higher the cultivation of the people who could use them. For Bai Yun who was quite far from the foundation establishment stage, this was perhaps a better reward than the foundation establishment pill.

After this everyone else also got rewards that they would be happy with. They were not at the same level as the ones Zhang Zi and Bai Yun and the other two got. The first four were given rather extravagant rewards. But the quality of their rewards was such that they, who had come from much poorer backgrounds than them, desperately needed those resources.

Since he had achieved his objectives, Bai Yun decides to leave. The longer he stayed around here, the more there was a danger that his ident.i.ty would be exposed.

But just as he turned around, he found his path blocked by a number of people. For a moment he was confused before realization struck him.

"Little brother Long," The person who was standing at the front said "I represent the Hunter Union. I wish to extend an invitation for you to join the hunter union."

Bai Yun sighed when he heard this. He had indeed shown off quite a bit. Especially that final fight with Zhang Zi. That was quite a spectacle. There was no way they would let an unaffiliated person who was so talented and could change his ident.i.ty and obscure his cultivation go. Even if he was a spy, they would first hire him and then think of the consequences. These people must be from the various powers of Yellow City. The Hunter Union only had the first go at him, once he began negotiation the rest of them would also join in.

"Thank you for the offer, but I will have to decline." Bai Yun replied.

"We haven"t even told you about our offer." The representative continued.

"It doesn"t matter what the offer is. I will not join any power."

"But-"

"Did you think I made it all the way here without a major power behind me."

The moment they heard this, all of them were startled. Even though they were expecting this to a degree, considering his abilities, they did not expect him to come and say it outright. Most importantly, none of the powers here knew who he was.

Bai Yun gave a small bow to them and left immediately. For a moment the group tried to block his way but finally left him alone. After they realized that Bai Yun was not going to budge, they left to try and recruit the other partic.i.p.ants. Bai Yun quickly left, not wanting to stay with them for long.

Bt just as he reached the gate of the room, he found his way blocked by Zhang Zi. "Wher are you going so quickly? "

Bai Yun simply smiled at this. He was trying to avoid Zhang Zi most of all. "I have other places to be. I don"t want to waste any of your time."

"No way am I letting you out of my sight. We haven"t finished our fight yet."

"Well, I truly have somewhere to be. You see, I snuck out and did not tell my family that I was joining the golf test. So I need to head back before they start to worry."

Zhang Zi was helpless upon hearing that. After a small amount of talking, the two of them exchanged contact information, and after Bai Yun promised to fight Zhang Zi at a later date, he was finally free to go.

Bai Yun was the first person to retreat from the gold test. He quickly got his items from storage, returned the storage ring after taking the items inside, and left.

No one noticed him when he stepped out of the hunter union. But the moment he did so, an annoying feeling welled up inside him. His G.o.d sense tracked a perception that had locked onto him.

The fact that the perception had locked onto him meant that the hunter union had sent a soul step cultivator to follow him. He knew that they would not let him go easily, but he did not think that they would send a soul step cultivator to follow him. Well not that it mattered. In a second, he had locked onto the person following him.

Bai Yun walked around Yellow City. At first, it seemed as if he was walking around randomly, but as time pa.s.sed he was heading to deeper and denser parts of the city. In less than an hour, they were in one of the busiest streets of the city. It was so crowded that it was nearly impossible to see anything more than a sea of heads.

As he walked, he wrapped the thread of perception with his G.o.d sense. The G.o.d sense was extremely versatile and could easily be used to destroy the perception. The reason Bai Yun was unable to make use of it was because of his low cultivation and strength. In fact, it was so powerful that if he used the full strength of the G.o.d sense, then he could instakill even the strongest person in the howling wolf world. Unfortunately the next moment his own body would blow up and he would die.

As he walked, he suddenly activated the G.o.d sense. In an instant, the thread of perception was destroyed. Faster than the blink of an eye, Bai Yun tuned around, changed his outer clothes, used the G.o.d sense to hide his injuries, and undid the a.s.sa.s.sin G.o.d"s techniques and returned to his original appearance. If had still used the a.s.sa.s.sin G.o.d"s technique to change his appearance, he would have been caught as the person following him would be able to tell that he had changed his appearance. A second later a perception covered the area he was in.

Bai Yun simply grinned. This was the heart of the Yellow City. The person following him would not be able to keep on searching with his perception for long without getting into trouble. And he would not be able to find him in the few seconds he had.

Without even waiting he walked away. Even as he walked, he changed his hairstyle and clothes. In a few minutes, Bai Yun was far away from the street, and the people following him had no chance to catch up to him. It was then that he ducked into a small alley and threw up the blood in his mouth. He had received a small backlash from activating the G.o.d sense to take action externally. Thankfully the perception was weak and wrapped around him, or he might have died from the backlash alone.

After this, he walked back towards the Bai clan without a care in the world.

n.o.body in the clan bothered to stop him. He had kept his injuries hidden with various techniques in order to fool the hunter union. If he had walked in while showing those injuries, the report would have reached their desks by the night. After a short while, he found himself back home.

The moment he did so, he ran into Butler Fang. Old Hai was his father"s personal a.s.sistant and had followed him since he was a child. Butler Fang, on the other hand, was someone his father hired from the clan and was in charge of the daily operations of the mansion.

"Ah, young master, there you are. We were all starting to get worried after not seeing you for a while." He said upon seeing Bai Yun. But suddenly he was startled. Bai Yun had stopped hiding his injuries and someone like Butler Fang, who was in the soul step, noticed immediately. He was surprised to find the sorry state of Bai Yun"s body. "Young master, what happened to you. Who was audacious enough to-"

"Its fine Butler Fang. You don"t need to worry about it." Bai Yun interrupted him.

"But-"

"It"s fine. You just need to buy me some medicinal ingredients to help me heal. Also, please ask Old Hai to come to my room." Bai Yun stopped him quickly.

Butler Fang nodded reluctantly. Bai Yun then turned towards his courtyard. He was given a courtyard all of his own ever since he had recovered. But after taking a few steps he stopped himself and looked back at Butler Fang. "Make sure that no one knows that it was I who bought the medicines. I don"t want anything to be traced back to me."

As Butler fang looked at him, Bai Yun"s eyes overlapped with his father"s in his mind. He simply nodded and left to carry out the tasks.

Once Bai Yun reached his room, he quickly took off his shirt and stood in front of a mirror to inspect himself. Then he used his G.o.d sense to look through his body. What he saw nearly brought him to tears.

He was bruised in most of his body. Half of his muscles were squished and some were nearly torn. His finger bones were starting to crack. There were a few small blood vessels in his body that were broken. Internal injuries were all over his body. His organs were still shaking from Zhang Zi"s horrifying shockwaves. His right shoulder was the most severely damaged.

Of course, his hands took the crown when it came to damages. Not only did he have so many cuts and bruises, but his entire hand down to his bones also had small microscopic cracks in them due to the collision of the three attacks. It did not look like it was going to heal any time soon.

If it was not for his war forged will and the emergency treatment given by the Hunter Union, he would have been rolling on the ground screaming once the adrenaline from the fight wore off.

"What the h.e.l.l happened to you?" Bai Yun heard an exclamation coming from the door. He turned around to see a stocked Butler Hai.

"Nothing much. I went to partic.i.p.ate in the hunter union"s gold test and got slightly hurt." Bai Yun replied matter of factly.
