Dragon Emperor, Martial God - Chapter 686: Unforgivable!

“Dead… they are all dead… dead…”

Cao Tianlong sounded like an old record on repeat as he sat there in shock.

He knew it could happen, but he couldn’t accept it now that it really happened. It was too large a shock!

“Get up!” Ling Yun yelled with his Mystical Dragon Howl!

Ling Yun’s yell shook Cao Tianlong out of his dazed state.

“Cao Tianlong, stand up if you’re a man!” Ling Yun looked at Cao Tianlong, piercing him with his words.

Ling Yun was dead serious, his eyes flashing at Cao Tianlong.

“Bam!”

Cao Tianlong slammed his fist onto the hard ground, drawing blood from the knuckles of his right hand. He then jumped up!

“I’ll go take a look!” Cao Tianlong headed to the storage room in anguish, seemingly unable to feel any pain from the wound.

Ling Yun noticed that the ten people who received The Embrace had an immediate reaction when the scent of blood penetrated the air. Every one of them opened their mouths, and their canine teeth started to lengthen…

Chester and Paul were no exception. They endured their bloodthirsty desires while they followed Cao Tianlong with their gazes!

……

The Blood Clan had an addiction to blood!

The Blood Clan might not need to eat, but they needed to continuously intake a new supply of blood. They would develop an insatiable desire for blood every night. This was even worse than the hunger humans felt. Their throats would be struck with pain, forcing them to suck human blood.

“Hmph!” Ling Yun let out a snort and glared at Chester and Paul.

They shut their mouths immediately but still swallowed involuntarily. They must have been in immense pain.

“Eldest Uncle!”

“Fourth Uncle!”

“Aunty!”

Cao Tianlong’s sorrowful cries came from the direction of the storage room in no time. Then came a series of knocks. Cao Tianlong was on his knees, kowtowing madly to the twelve bodies on the floor.

Disaster in the Cao Family! This was the deepest kind of hatred and bloody debt!

Ling Yun sighed inwardly. The twelve bodies were Cao Tianlong’s relatives, and they were all sucked dry of blood. It was too horrible a death!

“I wonder if Shanshan knows about this. If she knows…” Ling Yun didn’t dare continue the line of thought.

Ling Yun suddenly remembered Cao Shanshan’s short text to Zhang Ling.

“Zhang Ling, I’m fine. Don’t worry. Ling Yun and I are impossible now. Please take good care of him and ask him to forget me. I wish him, you, and our classmates all the best in life. 0125.”

Really? Was everything really fine? Was there nothing to worry about?

How is it possible to forget you?

Ling Yun took a deep breath and slowly let it out. His knuckles, which were clenched into fists, were already white!

Ling Yun understood the meaning of the text message. He couldn’t even rival someone of Houtian Realm Level Nine then, and Cao Shanshan was afraid of him being in danger.

Shanshan, I’m already in Beijing. I won’t let your family suffer anymore. I’ll do my best to rescue you, I swear!

Ling Yun vowed in his heart, his handsome eyes burning with hatred. Unforgivable! Chen Jianwei, the Chen Family!

“Chester, Paul, tell me, why didn’t Chen Jianwei give those people The Embrace?” Ling Yun asked in a low voice.

“Honorable Boss, that wretched Chen Jianwei needs human blood to cultivate. He needs a lot of it. He will think of ways to Embrace the people who are useful to him, but he’ll just suck those who are useless to him dry… You have to know that even an adult has only about five kilograms of blood in their body…”

On average, a human had 70 to 80 milligrams of blood for every kilogram of mass they had. It was about 7 to 8%. Therefore, someone who was about 75 kilograms would only have about six kilograms of blood.

“D*mmit!”

Ling Yun cursed and took out the Devil’s Blade. “I’m going to use this blade to suck every single drop of blood from Chen Jianwei!”

“Why didn’t they transform?” Ling Yun asked them a key question after he was done venting.

The speed of transformation for the Blood Clan was really fast, with the full transformation requiring less than ten seconds. The other eight hadn’t transformed while he was battling Cao Xingchang and Cao Junxiong. That baffled him.

“Oh, Honorable Boss, the transformation is gradual…”

“After The Embrace, the person gains immortality. However, getting to the point of being able to transform requires time. First, these two canine teeth will be able to grow and shrink at will… Then, the two hands can become long, sharp claws. Only after a long period of time, half a year to three years later, will they be able to completely transform like Paul and me…” Chester explained quickly.

“However, we can only complete the first phase of transformation. We haven’t grown our wings, we can only fly after they have grown. Only then will we be considered true members of the Blood Clan. We will be Barons then…

“The ultimate form is becoming vampire bats, the very small kind that I told you about in the car…”

Ling Yun nodded. “So, does that d*mn Chen Jianwei have wings now?”

Paul and Chester nodded simultaneously. “Wings are the prerequisite to becoming a Baron. He had a pair of broad black wings when he was in the United States. D*mn it, it was so enviable…”

Sh*t, that was troublesome. It would be more difficult to kill Chen Jianwei since he could fly now.

“How high can he fly? How far? How fast?”

There was no detail too fine for Ling Yun. He had to get every piece of information about Chen Jianwei right.

“Oh, Honorable Boss, have you seen a sparrow, a bat, or perhaps a hawk? It’s about there…”

“But, he’s not slower than you when he flies…”

Paul and Chester showed envy and yearning once they thought of flying. Their yearning was beyond words.

Ling Yun nodded cautiously. He wondered if he should make a longbow and make sterling silver arrows.

Ling Yun could only fly after the mid-stage of Qi Cultivation. He could only dispel evil with his divine sense after the third major realm of Qi Cultivation. He wasn’t afraid of close combat, but it was a different story now that he knew Chen Jianwei could fly. He had to have a long-range weapon and some way to restrain Chen Jianwei.

Ling Yun had already made this Chen Jianwei his number one arch enemy and someone he must kill.

I have to get a good gun, and the bullets have to be made of pure silver, Ling Yun thought to himself.

Cao Tianlong returned at this point. His eyes were red, and his forehead was bleeding from all the kowtowing. His relatives were all hissing at him. It was truly a heartbreaking sight.

Ling Yun gave Cao Tianlong two Healing Talismans to heal his forehead and his hand. He then took out a Water Talisman to cleanse the blood off Cao Tianlong’s body. Only then did Cao Tianlong’s relatives quiet down.

“I have to report this to the Heavenly Team and the Dragon Team. I can’t let the Chen Family continue this way!”

The Heavenly Team protected the country, while the Dragon Team protected the dragon. Cao Tianlong painstakingly thought of the power of their country.

Ling Yun laughed and shook his head. “Are you muddleheaded from the anxiousness? The Chen Family isn’t comprised of only Chen Jianwei. The Chen Family must have planned this for a long time. The Heavenly Team and the Dragon Team would have done something long ago if they were going to interfere!”

Ling Yun thought back to eighteen years ago when the Ling Family met with disaster. Ling Yun had no faith in the Heavenly Team and Dragon Team at all.

This was Beijing. Such a serious thing happened to a big and powerful Cao Family, and while the Chen Family might have tried to cover it up, it would have slipped out nonetheless. It was impossible otherwise!

“Ling Yun, do you mean to say the Heavenly Team and the Dragon Team already know that something has happened to our Cao Family?” Cao Tianlong asked after a pause.

“Honestly, I can’t be sure, but think about it. What’s more likely, them knowing and not doing anything or them not knowing at all?” Ling Yun smiled and asked.

Ling Yun’s meaning was obvious. If the Heavenly Team and Dragon Team didn’t know that such a huge crisis happened in the Cao Family, then they weren’t fit to protect the country!

“Are there any members of the Chen Family in the Heavenly Team and the Dragon Team? Or are there any who are close to the Chen Family? I’m guessing they will label you a lunatic and lock you up before the words even leave your lips…” Ling Yun’s lips curled up as he spoke.

“Erm… What now then?” Cao Tianlong asked incredulously and grudgingly.

“I said it before, we can only rely on ourselves!”

“We can’t stay at the Cao Family any longer. Let’s bring all these people away first…” Ling Yun said coldly.
