Chapter 370: Blade of Divine Will

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

The Dark Sky Curtain hovered over an area the size of a football stadium. Within the folds of the back curtain was countless howling, snarling, crying, and screaming ghosts. The four Demon G.o.ds stood at four corners of the bleak world like pillars. They had trapped Chen Fan and Red Sparrow in a deadly situation.

Chen Fan was unfazed while confronted by four Overlords who were only half-step away from Immortal State. He linked his hands behind his back and stood proudly. On the contrary, Red Sparrow was scared and started to waver.

Red Sparrow was a super soldier from the Special Case Department in China. However, Red Sparrow was far from a seasoned warrior since China’s peace and prosperity meant she hadn’t partaken in any tough battles, much less facing four Demon G.o.ds at once. She wagered that even if she was with Azure dragon or Ye Nantian, her fate was sealed.

“These four Demon G.o.d presided over their own territory and were not quite at peace with each other. Why did they decide to put down their centuries of bad blood and gang up on Chen Beixuan?”

Red Sparrow’s mind raced.

Most people with high-level clearance would be familiar with the secrets of j.a.pan’s six shrines. Each of them hosted a Demon G.o.d who used to be Immortal State cultivators a long time ago. However, they had been fighting against each other for so long that they might not even remember why they were still fighting. They were harmless most of the time since they were too busy fighting against each other, and also because they were confined to their own shrines.

Nothing like what happened today had ever happened. For these Demon G.o.ds to come out at once required the Divine Artifact “Dark Sky Curtain”, these remaining five shrines must have been conspiring against Chen Fan for a long time. But why? Chen Fan hadn’t done anything to them. Did they come to avenge their old rival Lord Susano?

Lord Kurome seemed to have registered Red Sparrow’s confusion, he grinned and then said: “Chen Beixuan, do you really think that we have no idea of what you are up to?”

“You want to kill me on your way to s.h.i.+koku. Yes, I and my peers are not on good terms but this is a matter of life and death for all of us. We have to band together in order to defend ourselves.”

Lord Kurome, Karasutengu and Yamamizuki all let out ugly grins.

Having lived hundreds of years had given them enough wisdom to let go of their differences during time of crisis. They quickly forged an alliance to quell Chen Fan before the latter could make a move on them.

“How did they know of our plan?”

Red Sparrow was taken aback.

Many people believed that Chen Fan had entered the Immortal State ever since the fight against Takemiya Hiro and therefore, the rest of the shrines should be of no interest to him. However, these Demon G.o.ds were still able to correctly guess Chen Fan’s next move.

“Could it be…” Red Sparrow’s face changed colors as she shot a surprised glare at Chen Fan.

“Violet.” Chen Fan uttered a name calmly.

Chen Fan and Red Sparrow had traveled under aliases and not even the j.a.panese Intelligence department knew of Chen Fan’s movement. The only other person who knew of his plan was Violet, and she must have snitched to Lord Kurome. Red Sparrow was a patriotic Chinese woman, and therefore she would never help the j.a.panese.

As soon as Chen Fan spoke the name, he looked to a dark corner and said: “Am I right, Violet?”

From the darkness, a curvy figure emerged. Her hot body was wrapped in a tight black overall. The style of her clothing was a parody of her purple hair, violet eyelashes. She was holding a Kodachi in one hand.

“Lord Chen Beixuan.” Violet bowed slightly and greeted Chen Fan.

Red Sparrow’s face turned pale and then she hissed at Chen Fan.

“Chen Beixuan! I told you to stay away from this j.a.panese B-with-an-itch. She was the leader of the Fuji Ninja Clan for G.o.d’s sake! Don’t you know what ninjas are like? They are despicable unscrupulous sons of b.i.t.c.hes. I knew you have fallen for the honey trap the moment I saw your stupid gaze on her face.”

Chen Fan didn’t reply.

Violet lowered her head and said softly.

“Master, regardless of how powerful you are, you will leave for China once you are done here. But I can’t. As soon as you are gone, these men behind me will first pick on me and my clan. Plus, Ninjas were never known for our high moral bearing, we only followed the strongest, and sadly, that is not you.”

Chen Fan said lightly: “I understand. But how did you remove the spell I cast on you?”

When Violet surrendered to Chen Fan, he had planted a golden flame inside of her to keep her in check and make sure she didn’t turn on him.

“The lord at Ise Grand Shrine helped me remove it. That Lord also tasked me to bring the Dark Sky Curtain here to a.s.sist the other four Demon G.o.ds.” Violet let out a smile. “That Lord I am talking about, he also said that even if you are able to escape the four of them, he will hunt you down and kill you personally.”

“Humph!!”

Chen Fan snorted, then a smile broke over his face.”Violet, why do you think I disclosed all my plans to you?”

The question caught the attention of the demon G.o.ds.

Violet and Red Sparrow were also taken aback by the question.
