Chapter One

1

"How can I escape? Do I have to run all over the world?" The person who made demands sounded quite confident.

I raised my hand and drew a circle lightly. "This construction site's fence is the boundary."

Using the construction site's fence as the line, if he manages to leave, he wins. If he loses, he loses his life. It's such a simple rule, it all depends on his ability.

"I heard that you were hit by Heavenly Thunder last time. Now, do you have the same good luck?"

Luckily, Qiong borrowed a strike of Blood Thunder through the contract in time. Otherwise, she would have been injured that day, or maybe the cursed dagger would have hit her. But whether it was Qiong or Wenxin, it wouldn't have been good if either of them were injured.

"Well, with your abilities, I can only rely on luck. Survival is my only way out, but you better keep your promise."

I extended my five fingers again and said, "Five seconds. The speed of an assassin is life. How far you can run in five seconds is up to your own effort. After five seconds, I will make my move."

It was a one-sided situation from the beginning. Balancing the game made it more playable.

His figure flashed, and without any hesitation he rushed towards the nearest fence. It was estimated to be about 500 meters away, which meant he needed a speed of 100 meters per second to achieve it.

If he has that speed, then letting him escape is only fair.

Five, four, three, two, one.

After one second, the Blood Thunder struck the fence, missing him by only two inches. His speed was just a little too slow.

"Just a little short, it's only his own fault."

The blood-red lightning chased him across the construction site relentlessly, not letting him escape. But all he did was dodge. I could tell that he didn't really want to fight me. He knew that he couldn't win, and his only way out was to escape.

People always choose to counterattack only after being driven into a corner, just like me before, without the incident with Wenxin, I didn't think about retaliating so quickly.

When he realizes that he can't escape, he will naturally choose to fight back. Just like a cornered dog fighting back, I am waiting for him to strike back.

Suddenly, five Thunder Shields appeared, and the Blood Thunder struck one of the shields, giving me a slight tingling sensation. The shell was quite strong.

The Blood Thunder in my hand didn't like this shell. It actually bounced off the attack of the Blood Thunder. The stronger the attack, the stronger the rebound force of the shell. It wasn't something that could be easily dealt with by using violence to overcome violence.

After pushing aside the five Thunder Shields, the Thunder gathered in his hands, and he unleashed two powerful swings with a perfect arc. I couldn't deny that this Magic was beautiful. There were few Magic in my memory that were as magnificent as this, but it was a pity that this beautiful Magic was wasted on him.

As for what was in my hand, it was a different story. The blood-red Thunder Shield suddenly appeared in front of me. Bang! It withstood his Thunder attack, and the rebound force was more than three times stronger than his attack, pushing him back two steps.

"How is this possible?" The other person was greatly surprised. His Magic was exactly the same as mine, but I had eight shields, giving me a much stronger momentum.

"Your move isn't difficult to learn." I didn't have a curved blade in my hand, I just drew it from the void. One strike dispersed his Thunder shield in front of him, and the Blood Thunder hit him directly. Although he was a Thunder Magic user, this special kind of Thunder, the Blood Thunder, couldn't be absorbed at all. The full force of the Thunder attack made him suffer greatly.

"So, you actually have the ability to copy? Or maybe..."

"I told you that your Magic isn't difficult to learn. It's easy to see through. Why don't you try mine? I'll give you a simple one and see if you can learn it!"

A blood red Thunder Lotus flower gently floated on my palm.

"Just condensing power!" This guy propped himself up with one hand, wiped away the blood from his mouth and said.

I smiled, not saying much. The Thunder Lotus flower extended five Thunder chains, tightly binding his limbs and neck.

"Ah! Although they are Thunder chains, they are still Blood Thunder. It hurts to touch them at all."

"This is called the Soul Lock Lotus, Thunder locks the veins of the soul. Even without the Blood Thunder, you would still suffer greatly. So, can you learn it?"

"Kill... kill me!"

This guy shouted loudly, but I could tell he couldn't hear what I was saying anymore. The game should be over now.

"Let's fly a kite!"

I pulled out another chain from the heart of the Thunder Lotus flower and pulled it with all my strength. His whole body was thrown into the air, and a blue Thunder wrapped around the indigo blue short gun barrel that emerged from the void around his waist. The dragon carving appeared as it leapt from the gun to the wrist, roaring like thunder that echoed throughout the heavens and earth.

The gun was aimed at his head and I said, "Although I don't know your name, you must remember that you died at the hands of the Demon Dragon's magic gun 'Thunder Roar'. It is the most praiseworthy cause of death in the underworld. Remember that!""Boom~~~!"

Blood Thunder Bullet, instantly shattering the steel bones, the blood-drenched bodies hanging in the air, red liquid splattered on the silver-white steel buildings, eerie and extraordinary.

A person strolling on the long streets of the city at night, neon lights, the once heavy and tired alleys and corners, for some reason, today doesn't feel the same, relaxed in body and mind.

Although the origin of the Qin family is the Demon Dragon, when it comes to the ancestors of the Qin family, they are the sons born to the Demon Dragon and the sister of Yu Zhe. Based on the paternal line, the Demon Dragon is indeed the origin, while based on the maternal line, the origin of the Qin family is in The Demon Realm's Phoenix Clan.

Originally known as the Phoenix Clan, the Phoenix Clan and the Ostrich Clan were descendants of Yao Yuan's Phoenix and Ostrich. But time allows the clans to constantly try new things. When the first Phoenix Clan mated with an outsider, their descendants, no matter how many generations apart, are still the same gender as that Phoenix Clan member. Over time, they separated into the Phoenix Clan, a clan that still gives birth to girls no matter how many times they mate with other demon races, and the Ostrich Clan, which only gives birth to boys.

The reason why the ancestors of the Qin family came to The Human Realm was fundamentally a grudge between the Phoenix Clan and the Dragon Clan, or rather, a grudge between the Demon Dragon and the Phoenix Clan.

Two hundred and thirty million years ago, in a distant history that was even longer than the battle between gods and demons...

The sky in The Demon Realm is usually a dark red color, but for the demon race living in The Demon Realm, the sky is always like this. Without ever seeing the azure sky of The Human Realm, they don't find the sky in The Demon Realm strange. Even if they have seen it, they think the sky in The Human Realm is strange.

Collecting "beauty" is a preference of the Demon Dragon, whether it was two thousand three hundred years ago or myself today, this preference has not changed.

That day, as the Demon Dragon, I also had a lot of idle time. I wandered around the small island in the center of the lake. Although The Demon Realm is vast, for someone like me who has experienced endless years, it has long been a backyard I have traveled through. The only thing that is fresh is not the scenery, but the people active on it.

The last time I wandered on this island was at least fifty years ago. In the fifty years since then, besides the trees flourishing more, there was someone special on the pond on the island.

The Phoenix Clan goes through the baptism of fire and is reborn every hundred years. If the rebirth fails, their life ends just like that.

The phoenix can age, but after being reborn, they will return to the appearance of a child and continue to grow. This is the reason they are immortal, but it is also the most fragile time for their lives. However, this continuous rebirth can only be achieved by purebred phoenixes. It becomes even more difficult with mixed blood. The descendants of the Qin family have lost such divine power so far.

The person I saw back then was a phoenix bathing in the blazing fireball. She had never left this island, even though she had wings that could soar high in the sky for thousands of miles, she didn't want to fly out. She didn't like the outside world. She had no surname or name, only a nickname given by her clan - Ling'er.

After experiencing countless rebirths, it is not difficult for her to be reborn again, and she could have gone through it as always. But unfortunately, I came to harass her, and luckily, she was the one who accidentally broke in.

Although the process was a bit tricky, I still managed to help Ling'er complete her rebirth. If it was someone else, they might not have been able to turn the tide and would have perished long ago.

After being reborn, she became a young girl, still beautiful, fresh like the natural wind, one with the scenery on the island.

She was dressed in a light red long dress and asked, "Who are you?"

"Just a passerby!"

This was the first conversation between the Demon Dragon and her.

The beginning of the story is always so beautiful, but the ending has always been unsatisfactory.
