A black shadow rose from the ground in front of Man Yee Ho and wrapped Yeung Tin Hun in a robe that was pitch-black in colour, as if a stolen piece from the night skies. Man Yee Ho immediately activated his energliph and surrounded himself with countless phantom weapons.
“Hmph.” Kan Hang sneered and turned into a puddle of black water before disappearing.
When Man Yee Ho came back to his senses, he was similarly covered in total darkness.
Behind every elite cultivator were their unique traits, and for Imperial Guard Nightwalker Kan Hang, Embroidered Cloth, one of his two best gliphilities, was more than a simple defence skill. Embroidered Cloth could limit and seal opponents, which was most effective against weak cultivators. Not only that, it had a special storage space to contain humans, which Kan Hang used to protect Lam Ming Sum when Mo Yung Kwong attacked them during their dangerous journey from Southary to South Imperial City. This function could also be used to trap opponents.
Those trapped in Embroidered Cloth only stood a chance of escaping if they had an equivalent cultivation state to Kan Hang, otherwise they would lose all of their senses unless Kan Hang made special arrangements for it. Such an experience was no doubt horrifying, and as Lam Chun’s past shadow, tormenting enemies was the norm for Kan Hang.
Kan Hang was currently in the four-chambered state, moving toward the five-chambered state after breaking through the bottleneck of his arm chamber. There was no way Man Yee Ho or Yeung Tin Hun could break through the space of Embroidered Cloth.
Kan Hang suppressed Yeung Tin Hun and Man Yee Ho easily within a few seconds of his arrival, and Chui Yim sat on the floor pitifully as he caught his breath. His body hurt greatly, but that didn’t dampen his excitement.
He finally understood what Kam Chin Kee meant when he said that combat rather than seclusion facilitated a cultivator to improve greatly, unlike forging, since humans display surprising potential when facing life and death. Chui Yim spent months working hard on True Domineer to only succeed in forming the gliph on his body, but he couldn’t even activate it. But after the fierce battle with Yeung Tin Hun, he managed to succeed!
At the same time, his body was hurting badly. Considering how strong Chui Yim’s body was, it was rare for someone of the same cultivation state to cause Chui Yim pain, let alone injure him. However, every part of his body was hurting after he activated True Domineer.Chui Yim wasn’t surprised. In the legacy, it mentioned that True Domineer was a gliphility that “goes against the heavens” because of how it forcefully absorbed the enemies’ energy for its own use. At the same time, this process hurt the cultivator before damage was even done to the enemy; absorbed energy would have to move through one’s own body before it could be used against the opponent.
Since the heavens were fair, only those with a monstrous body were able to perform this gliphility, but luckily, Chui Yim lived up to his title of human gliphic beast; not only did he have great strength and speed, he also recovered at an amazing speed, so it only took a short moment for him to recover from the pain he suffered.
Makes sense. If not, Wong Ba would never have been able to defeat all those elites if he suffered from extreme pain every time he used this gliphility!
“Oh my, this is a misunderstanding!” Yeung Chun hurried to the Northern teens, shaking his head hard. “He’s my nephew, and he is here to seek short-term accommodation during his time in South Imperial City!”
However, Kan Hang still stared at the teenagers like he was ready to trap them again in an instant.
“Great Uncle, why are you afraid of them!?” Yeung Tin Hun asked unhappily, but the helpless experience of being trapped in Embroidered Cloth and Kan Hang’s unfriendly gaze left him silent.
Seeing this, Yeung Chun immediately turned to Chui Yim, who was drinking tea. “Little Brother Chui, look…”
“Hehe,” Chui Yim chuckled like an old man. It was a weird scene considering Chui Yim’s childish look. “You’re Brother Yeung’s nephew? Alright, since we are a big family, I’ll consider you as my nephew too.”
“Yes!” Yeung Chun nodded happily. “That’s right! We are a family!”
Yeung Tin Hun flared up at Chui Yim’s words. As someone who had reincarnated, since when was he on the losing side? Thus, he smacked the table and stood up angrily. “Nephew? Nonsense! Who wants to be your family!?”
“Well, if you do not wish to be considered as one of us…” Chui Yim smiled sneakily even before Yeung Chun could calm Yeung Tin Hun. With Kam Chin Kee and Kan Hang around, he was confident that he would be safe and took the chance to take advantage of Yeung Tin Hun.
“You’ll be considered a trespasser since I bought this residence with my money and have the deed. Not only that, you treated me, the owner, as a servant and resorted to violence; this is assault. Furthermore, if not for my strong body, you, a glipher, would have already killed me; this is attempted murder. Lastly, since I’m no mere servant, we fought, and you damaged my garden walls; this is vandalism.”
With a sneer, Chui Yim patted the shoulders of Kan Hang next to him. “Do you know who this man is? He’s from Evergreen Palace’s mysterious Shadowforge Hall, the well-known Imperial Guard Nightwalker, a powerful cultivator that can stop babies from crying at night, gods and Buddha have nothing on him. Even demons have to avoid him!
“As the current shadow of Her Highness, Princess Lam Ming Sum, he could put you, an important figure of the North, into a Southern jail with a word because of your crimes for about… thirty years…”
Kan Hang was left speechless. What nonsense is he talking about?
Meanwhile, Yeung Tin Hun boiled in anger hearing Chui Yim. “C’mon! I’m not afraid… ugh…” But before he could finish his words, the expressionless Man Yee Ho came and covered his mouth.
Yeung Chun shook his head at the scene and pulled Chui Yim back. “Please don’t, Little Brother Chui! You know youngsters act recklessly, please do not lower yourself to argue with him! Please spare him for my sake!”
Chui Yim took a glance at the fuming Yeung Tin Hun and nodded. “Alright. For Brother Yeung’s sake, I’ll take you in as a gardener.”
Gardener… Yeung Tin Hun swore that this was the first time being insulted this badly in both of his lives. If not for Man Yee Ho pulling him back so tightly, he would have bitten this baldy’s head off!
