429 The Dark Dwellers (1/2)
Dark clouds fully capped the sky, such that sunlight could not pierce through to shine on the Wind Cloud Island. The warm island became gloomy and cold all of a sudden.
Dark clouds slowly descended above the forest on the Wind Cloud Island, and a dark aura overwhelmed everywhere.
Shi Yan frowned while looking up at the clusters of dark cloud in the sky. His heart was agitated, as he secretly hid his own trace of breath.
The third eye of his host soul in his Sea of Consciousness suddenly brightened, releasing the spiritual power that hindered the exploration of souls, preventing all kinds of soul consciousnesses from coming close to him.
Hiding in an ancient tree, he quietly looked through the small gap. Not long after that, three figures gradually appeared from the dark clouds.
One of them was an old man with gray hair at his temples. The second one was a young man with an outstanding appearance but an inwardly evil-hearted mind. The last one was Yi Cu Bi of the Demonic Sound Clan.
The three of them came out from the dark clouds and stood in the forest with calm expressions while discussing with a low tone.
Looking at them from a distance, Shi Yan realized that the bodies of the two men were chilly cold, with incredibly strong energy spiritual fluctuations. It was clear that they knew how to use soul energy.
The Dark Dwellers!
Just after a quick glance, he could confirm the identity of those two men. The Dark Dwellers’ physical health was different from that of Humans and Demon Dwellers. Their physical state tended to be yin and cold. They didn’t like to waste their energy in training their bodies. Instead, they considered soul cultivating their lifelong goal. The Dark Dwellers had a feeble physique. Yet, although they looked weak, their souls were mighty.
The temperament and souls of those two men were the same as those of Yi Cu Bi. They were obviously from the same race.
The handsome young man was talking something to Yi Cu Bi, which looked like he was trying to cheer her up. However, Yi Cu Bi wore an indifferent face while responding to him perfunctorily. She then urged that young man to act faster.
The old man seemed to carefully protect the young man, releasing his soul conscious to detect and prevent any strangers from coming close.
”Cu Bi-mei, if we find the Yin Jade Crystal this time, my father will refine a Dark Yin Cold Pellet himself. It can help you expand your Sea of Consciousness twice, and soon, you’ll reach the Second Sky of Sky Realm. Your soul will enhance one step further.” The young man smiled and said with a longing face. ”Refining the Dark Yin Cold Pellet is extremely difficult. My father condenses this pellet with the hope of receiving your father’s favor. The Demonic Sound Clan is the main branch of the Dark Dwellers. After invading the Kyara Sea and sharing rare cultivation resources, Dark Dwellers’ forces will be obviously more powerful. Your father is the third generation leader of the Demonic Sound Clan, and he will also gain great benefits in the future.”
Yi Cu Bi looked at him but didn’t say anything.
”Cu Bi-mei, tell me what my weakness is after all? Why don’t you agree to our marriage?” The young man helplessly asked with a worried face. ”Doesn’t my status match yours? You should probably know how I have been treating you during the whole year. What I’ve done is not good enough for you?”
”It’s not about being good enough. It is just that I don’t like you,” Yi Cu Bi finally said. ”I remember that before you met me, you have had numerous relationships with beautiful women. You’ve never lacked women, so why do you have to stick with me?”
”You’re different from the other women.” The young man raised his hands and vowed. ”Before seeing you, the other women were just a game. I’ve never been touched. But after seeing you, everything’s changed. Because of you, I have already cut off the relationships with those women so that you can be moved and pay attention to me. Is it not enough for you?”
Yi Cu Bi continued to shake her head with a cold complexion.
That young man helplessly continued to linger with an honest face and a sincere voice. It looked like he was exposing his heart to her.
Inside the bush, Shi Yan coldly looked at them and sneered in his mind.
After only one year, the Demonic Sound Clan people had unexpectedly blended with the Dark Dwellers very well, evidently becoming one race. Their relationship was much closer.
The fact that the young man pursued Yi Cu Bi patiently was probably because of Yi Tian Mo’s status and position. He wanted to seek the marriage bond with Yi Cu Bi to tie himself with the Demonic Sound Clan, avoiding the possibility of Yi Tian Mo having wicked intentions.
Watching Yi Cu Bi leisurely walking in the forest with a graceful appearance, Shi Yan’s eyes gradually calmed down.
He remembered the time when he had first met Yi Cu Bi. In that abandoned land, this woman took advantage of her mighty soul to destroy his soul protection directly. She then controlled and took him to the Demonic Sound Clan’s City. He and this woman also hunted the demon beasts in the Sound Beast Mountain together. So, they somehow had fate for a period of time.
Time had passed. The Demonic Sound Clan came out from the Chasm Battlefield and made a connection with the Dark Dwellers. This was something out of his expectation.
The oaths of the three leaders of the Demonic Sound Clan were still right next to his ears. However, they now yielded to the Dark Dwellers.
Although he had never considered Yi Tian Mo and the other two leaders his loyal right-hands, he still didn’t feel comfortable seeing this moment.
