Tales Of Demons And Gods - The Rise Of Chen Long

The vacation started. Nie Li and the rest of the guys went back to their families. Most of them lived in the dormitories provided to them by the Orchid Institute, they all lived far away. Only major noble families lived near the school, so commoners is like a city away but still a part of Glory city.

Xiao Ning'er and I unofficially agreed to started to see each other. Only a few people know of our relationship. She also now knows that I am a master class alchemist, bit i made sure her family doesn't know. So I made her to keep the promise of secrecy.

I gave a week supply of every cultivation pills I know, since we only see each other weekly from now on. We need to get stronger due to the dangers of the outside world. I told her about it, she was shocked when she found out there are cultivation higher than that of a legend rank cultivators. And that I was planning to go to the outside in the future. She wanted to go with me, so she diligently increased her training. So~, we only meet once a week.

My father finally brokethrough the legend rank. So he got addicted to the energy of the legend rank, so he started a close-door training. We probably won't see him for awhile. My uncle fei don't want to be undone and went to a semi-closed door training. He was left in charge by father. Elder brother is helping my uncle since he will be the next successor. So I'm alone most of the time, which means i can do whatever I want.

I went to a lot of demon spirit merchants and bought all demon beast spirit with a dragon bloodline. I was ready to breakthrough the black gold rank which will expand my soul realm to accommodate another demon spirit. I want a dragon this time. I want it to be stronger than the winged abyss tiger. So i will need a lot this time.

I bought every demon spirits with dragon bloodline in the city. So my next stop is the black market merchants.

I stopby the Alchemy ȧssociation to drop off my weekly contribution and got demon coins from my account in the alchemy bank. I ran out of money last time I went to the black market, so i am preparing myself this time around.

My soul realm is still repairing, so i cannot transform into my beast form or use stealth. So Uncle Chen Yong volunteered to go with me. There is only one reason someone would volunteer to go to the black market. It was the brothel. That is the highest volume of income in the black market. I see alot of hooded nobles there.

When we got there. We agreed to meet back in an hour at the entrance of the black market. So I started to go shopping. I bought all the demon spirit with dragon bloodline, then went to eat at a fancy restaurant with ingredients from endangered species which was illegal. It was so good, so Ieven packed some take home boxes to bring back. The archeologist in me cannot hold myself when i see an artifact ancient or not, so i bought them all. I went into a book merchant and asked for cultivation books both legal and forbidden books. I also bought all that has ancient manuscripts. I was so focused on shopping that i did not notice the time. I only noticed when Uncle Yong bumped his fist on my head.

"Hey knucklehead! Its been 3 hours! Do you want me to get in trouble with my wife!" - Chen Yong.

"Sorry Uncle Yong! I forgot about your curfew! hahaha!" - i said.

My uncle Yong has a scary wife, I saw aunty beat him up in front of the family when he was caught flirting with the maids. She is a jealous type. And my uncle is the pervert type, he never learns his lesson. And so we headed back. No one dared to follow us since my uncle is releasing his aura, so everything went pretty smooth.

As soon as i came home, I jetted to my room and took out my spoils. Some artifacts are sealed with writings i dont know. I taken a look at the books and manuscripts but also surprise that the ancient writings is different from what I know. It looks like I need to go decode this language again. This is going to take some time. I might need to visit some ancient ruins to find a key code like the rosetta stone. I then put them away back to the ring.

I took out my nightmare demon pot and started practicing with poor growth rate dragon blood demon spirits. It lasted the whole day. The dragon bloodline spirits are very powerful and hard to combine. It feels like a dragon battle going on. Dragons hate loosing so the energies wont stop resisting each other. And this is only the poor growth rate.

I decided to fix my soul realm first. So i can better utilize my soul force. So my closed door training started.

"Yo little bro! Pack up! Were heading to Hong Yue Auction House. I received an invitation to attend! Well~actually it's for father but i can't disturb him and Uncle Fei is acting patriarch so that leaves only me and you! - Chen Linjian.

"Can you get someone else! I am in the middle of my close-door training!" I said whiningly

"Come on little bro! Live a little! Here check out the list they are auctioning! The last one is a mystery item with a starting bid of 8 million demon coins, it got to be good!" - Linjian

I looked at the items. I saw a lot of artifacts, so I became interested. It's the damn archeologist in me. So I agreed to go with him.

It's quite a distance away. We went with Huyan Lanruo his childhood friend and a couple of his personal bodyguards. Since he is the successor so he have his own personal body guards while i don't.

We arrived at night time so we stayed at the guest inn. Huyan was trying to hug elder brother the whole time, but elder brother keep resisting which made her mire interested. Huyan Lanruo have this power to make guys fall in love with her. She has her own fan club doing whatever she told them to do. Since elder brother and her are childhood friends, he developed a resistance to her power. Unfortunately, I am not immune. I sometimes blackout when I'm with her and wake up doing something i don't know and remembering stuff i don't want to mention doing. So i stay away from her as much as possible.

The next day, we arrived at Hong Yue auction house. We were escorted to a VIP booth and sat down. The other booth next to us was noisy fighting the booth next to them. They were only minor nobles and aristocrats of the area. Then I heard one remark that i recognized, "heavenly marks family". So i took a peak on the other booth and saw a familiar face.

"NIE LI!" -i shouted.

He looked at my direction and was equally surprised.
