--- Chapter 84 ---

"Hello, I'm not a bad person." Yunlong smiled and looked at the black-haired lady, who stared at him with a frown on her face.

She had a fair complexion and long flowing black hair, which combed into cat ears shape on top of her head, making Yunlong pretty much could guess who she was.

'Since this girl knew about the blonde guy, she should be Zhu Zhuyun.' Yunlong easily thought.

"Stay away from Dai Weisi..!" Zhu Zhuyun coldly said while activating her martial soul, which is Hell Civet, and making her look like a catgirl.

She used her spirit skill, which increased her speed, and quickly arrived in front of Yunlong as she lunged a sharp claw attack toward him.

"Woah, calm down, there." Yunlong calmly commented and immediately caught her hand, which made her surprised at his speed.

'I must save Dai Weisi first.' Zhu Zhuyun thought while using her other spirit skill, which made her body disappear for a moment.

She quickly caught Dai Weisi's body and ran away from Yunlong, who calmly observed her with a smirk on his face.

'She isn't bad for a soul master with an agility system, but it wasn't enough to run away from me.' Yunlong thought while looking at Dai Weisi, who suddenly opened his eyes and slapped Zhu Zhuyun on the face.

Pa!

"Dai Weisi-!" Zhu Zhuyun was shocked, but the hand had already touched her face, which made her fall to the ground.

"What happened to you?" She said with a confused expression because Dai Weisi's eyes have turned into crimson eyes with three rotating dots.

"Don't worry, he's fine," Yunlong answered while slowly walking toward them.

"What are you doing to him?!" Zhu Zhuyun nervously asked while shifting his gaze to Yunlong.

"Hmm, only a little bit of illusion, I guess." Yunlong arrived in front of Zhu Zhuyun and looked down at her.

Zhu Zhuyun's eyes shrank for a moment, and she hurriedly attacked Yunlong again, but he already anticipated her by catching her on the neck.

"W-Why are you doing this..." Zhu Zhuyun struggled to free herself from Yunlong's hand, but it won't even budge after using all her strength.

Yunlong didn't answer her, which made the young lady quiet. "D-Dai Weisi." Zhu Zhuyun suddenly said while throwing something into the air, which explodes into a cloud of red smoke.

Boom!

'I see, a signal flare...' Yunlong thought while looking at the red cloud of smokes, which made a few presences move toward them at a breakneck speed.

[There are seven people, who moved toward this place]

[All of them were below Spirit Emperor Realm]

Yunlong threw Zhu Zhuyun to the ground and shifted his gaze to the surrounding woods.

Zhu Zhuyun gasped for a moment, but she quickly controlled her breathing and regained her composure while shifting her gaze to Yunlong.

"It's over. You won't leave this place alive. Seven spirit kings will arrive in a few seconds." She said with a cold mockery.

"Is that so...?" Yunlong quietly responded with a calm expression on his face.

Yunlong didn't care about her backups since even without Jin Eyu's help, he can finish them with such ease.

'Well, if that old man was here, they won't survive in a second because his presence alone could pressure them to death.' Yunlong thought while shifting his gaze to Zhu Zhuyun and put her into an illusion.

"Ah..." Zhu Zhuyun immediately slumped to the ground and fell asleep.

As she went away to a deep illusion, six people in a black hood surrounded Yunlong with intense pressure from their bodies.

"Prince..." One of them said while looking at Dai Weisi, who motionlessly stood on the ground with a stoic expression on his face.

"Prince is inside of an illusion." Another of them said, which piqued Yunlong's interest a little since his illusion was rarely distinguished.

Yunlong shifted his gaze to the person who said that and observed him or her a little. 'Interesting,' He thought.

'I don't need to fight them, but whatever.' Yunlong raised his hand and activated his handkerchief martial soul, which greatly confused them.

They're confused for a moment, but when they saw Yunlong's spirit ring configuration, they immediately alerted them because he had one purple and three black spirit rings floated around his body.

Yunlong has already aged his spirit rings by using [Mortal Sin: Gluttony] and [Devouring Lines]. Even though the process was slower than Yunlong expected, his second spirit ring still reached Ten thousand years old phase in only two years.

[GTH Spirit Rings Age: First(9,690), Second(11,200), Third(18,960), and Fourth(23,940)]

"I suggest you all attack now, or you would be dead in a second," Yunlong said while activating his second spirit skill, which turned Handkerchief into countless golden strings.

"Kill Him..." The black-hooded men moved toward Yunlong and drew their weapons at him.

'Surprisingly, all of them had a tool-type martial soul.' Yunlong calmly observed these incoming attacks with his sharingan.

Yunlong naturally flicked his fingers in the air and formed a vague golden cage, which trapped them because he didn't give any blindspot to dodge.

The only way out of his golden cage is by destroying it with a powerful force, which Liu Erlong did when fighting him, but after trial and error for the past two years, Yunlong sure no one would be able to break it again.

'Well, except for a few special cases like someone stronger than me or someone with special ability to dodge any attack.' Yunlong thought while looking at the black-hooded men, who are struggling inside of his golden cage.

Since Yunlong doesn't want to waste time, he immediately pulled his fingers and gripped them to form a fist, making the golden cage's size squeezing at a fast speed.

"Golden Cage: Coffin..." Yunlong's voice entered their ears as a bunch of sharp golden strings tightly bound their bodies.

He could hear faint cries from the golden coffin and blood running out from it, but it doesn't waver him at all because only the strong one survives in this world.

"Devouring Lines," Yunlong silently added, which makes the golden strings glow with purple lights.

After a few seconds of devouring, Yunlong released them from the golden coffin and saw their poor conditions, all of them were intensely bleeding with a pale complexion.

Yunlong caught one of them and stared at him in the eyes. "Say hi, to him." He said while putting him into an illusion that would make a grown man cry in agony.

He searched his memory for a moment and gripped his neck to crumble afterward because he didn't have any use for him again.

Crack!

[You have killed 1 Spirit King]

[Mortal Sin: Gluttony Activated]

[You have devoured a piece Spirit King's soul, spirit, and spiritual energy]

[You have gained [Archery] Skill]

Yunlong shifted his gaze to the other black-hooded man.

"Now, what should I do with you guys." He said with a smile on his face, which made them tremble in cold sweats.
