Having the genes of a demon king, I never intended to be a kept man.

Bai Jian's eyes flickered.

Then he saw all the shadows within a hundred square meters around him stand up and turn into thousands of sharp blades, like extremely thin but invisible black lines that all enveloped him!

Bai Jian had no choice but to abandon his attack on Ye Ge and escaped Qian Ying Sha's attack range in a flash.

"Special ability - Shadow Control!" Zero quickly formed hand seals, controlling the shadows to chase after Bai Jian.

Thousands of sharp, slender lines swept across the scene, producing a sharp "swish" sound as if cutting through the air!

'I never expected that the young master of the Ye family would have such a powerful bodyguard...'

As Bai Jian retreated and dodged the shadow lines, he thought to himself.

"Darkin - Curse of Doomsday!"

"Illusion Technique - Blood Spirit Illusion Technique!"

Ye Ge also made his move at the same time.

As a black mist surged out from behind him, countless crows flew towards Bai Jian!

Bai Xueling also changed from her spirit cat form to her loli catgirl form.

His scarlet pupils were fixed on Bai Jian's eyes!

'What is this?' The moment Bai Jian saw Bai Xue Ling's scarlet eyes, the world before him turned blood red, and he immediately felt his brain being impacted by some kind of mental force.

Unfortunately, this mental impact was far too weak for a powerhouse like him, a cultivator at the Asura Realm...

"Puwa...!"

Bai Xueling suffered a mental backlash, spitting out a mouthful of blood, her face turning deathly pale, and she collapsed into Ye Ge's arms.

"Lingling?" Ye Ge frowned and immediately stepped forward to hug her.

At the same time, dozens of black crows transformed into black mist and attacked Bai Jian from both sides, simultaneously unleashing black light!

"Om-!"

The doomsday curse has struck!

Unfortunately, against a peak Asura Realm expert, the effect lasted only 0.1 seconds...

Although it was only 0.1 seconds, Bai Jian's expression changed. He clearly felt that all the energy in his body was sealed off during that 0.1 seconds!

What a bizarre ability...

In 0.1 seconds, a lot can actually be done in the fleeting moments of combat between superhumans.

So what just happened was actually very dangerous!

Bai Jian thought to himself that it was fortunate this kid was only at the Earth Realm, and no one seized the opportunity to attack him, otherwise...

"Shuashuashua——"

At this moment, Zero's handprint changed again, and he controlled the shadow lines to surround and cut from all directions!

Bai Jian finally dared not delay and drew his weapon.

A long, silver-white sword with a mirror-like gleam appeared in his hand.

This sword is named "Ling Sha".

It has been enhanced to 12 stars, and the surface of the sword emits a faint pink glow.

"Fourth-tier sword skill - Phantom Severing!"

hum!

A blinding white light burst forth in the air!

At first glance, Bai Jian appeared to have only unleashed one sword strike, yet it seemed as if countless phantom sword energies were rushing out in an instant.

The black threads of zero control were all severed in mid-air!

But it's not over yet.

The remaining fifty-odd shadow warriors suddenly emerged from the surrounding shadows.

They attacked Bai Jian, wielding short knives!

Bai Jian glanced around indifferently, then twisted his wrist with his sword, unleashing another Phantom Slash.

"Swish, swish, swish -!"

More than fifty Shadow Warriors were all forced to retreat!

In just a moment, before they could even see how Bai Jian made his move, each of them had sword wounds of varying depths on their bodies!

Some wounds were on the chest, some on the arms, and some on the face had several faint, long marks that slowly bled after a few seconds.

This was only because the Shadow Warriors sensed the invisible sword energy that was almost invisible to the naked eye in time and reacted in time to avoid some of the fatal sword energy attacks.

Otherwise, if they were ordinary soldiers, they would probably have been wiped out in an instant, all of them hacked to pieces by the sword energy!

Bai Jian was slightly surprised; this was the first time... that his "Phantom Severing" hadn't killed a single person when facing so many people.

They were all just injured?

'It seems these Night Clan warriors are even more formidable than I imagined...'

Bai Jian could clearly sense that, apart from Zero, the other shadows were merely extraordinary beings at the Myriad Manifestations Realm.

His fourth-tier sword technique failed to kill a single one of the fifty-odd Myriad Manifestation Realm experts! This is absolutely impossible under normal circumstances! What kind of terrifying training have these Night Clan warriors undergone to become like this?

Ye Ge, holding the unconscious Bai Xue Ling, stood behind Ling, calmly observing Bai Jian's strength.

Through the system scan, Ye Ge could see that Bai Jian's strength was still at the peak of the Asura Realm.

The attribute panel was also quite normal, similar to what he remembered from the game.

After all, since Yege came to this game world, many of the world's plots have been changed, and there is no doubt that there will be more butterfly effects.

Ye Ge couldn't be sure if Bai Jian's strength was still the same as he remembered from the game. He might be stronger or weaker than in the game's storyline.

A fire broke out in the Ye family camp, and the sounds of fighting and killing continued.

Ye Yulong, Ye Qingxin, Ye Yang, Ye Mengyu, and others were also fighting with Bai Jian's men in the camp.

After taking down several warriors from Baicheng, Ye Yulong and his group arrived beside Ye Ge, coldly confronting Bai Jian.

Ye Qingxin frowned slightly, thinking that this person exuded a powerful sword aura. Just standing in front of him, she could feel the coldness of the sword in his hand. The blade seemed to be constantly pressed against her neck, chilling her to the bone, giving her a feeling of dread...

Among the Asura Realm experts, besides Uncle Night Owl, he is the first to give people this feeling!

"This guy is Bai Jian?" Ye Yulong sneered, "The top general under Duke Wang En?"

Ye Ge nodded slightly: "Yes, it's him."

Ye Yulong stared at Bai Jian expressionlessly: "I heard that you are not an ordinary swordsman. You have successfully awakened into a Soul Swordsman. It is said that there are only three swordsmen in the empire who have successfully awakened into Soul Swordsmen? You are one of them?"

Bai Jian's lips twitched slightly, but he did not answer.

At this moment, his younger sister, Bai Qing, also came out from behind him and came to Bai Jian's side. Bai Jian turned his head, looked at his sister Bai Qing, and said nothing.

Ye Qingxin looked at Bai Qing and thought that this woman must be his sister, Bai Qing. It was said that she was also a powerful expert in the Asura Realm, but compared to Bai Jian, the number one general under Wang En, his sister Bai Qing was not very famous in the empire, so few people knew her background or what her extraordinary abilities were.

With a series of footsteps, more than two hundred gunmen wielding magic-powered guns surrounded Bai Jian. With the sound of bolts being pulled back, the two hundred men simultaneously aimed their rifles at Bai Jian.

Bai Jian glanced at it: "The intelligence I received says that your Ye family seems to have used some kind of particularly advanced new magic energy gun on the battlefield? Even a group of ordinary people can use it?" After saying that, he released the aura of a Shura Realm expert without reservation.

"boom!"

The group of magic gunners surrounding him were immediately overwhelmed by the powerful aura and forced to the ground. They couldn't even stand up, let alone pick up their guns. Each of them felt as if a mountain was pressing down on them, and they lay on the ground screaming in agony.

"Unfortunately, it's useless against me." Bai Jian said expressionlessly, "These fragile ordinary people, I can kill them with a single thought."

"..." Ye Ge thought to herself, as expected, after attacking so many cities in succession, Bai Jian finally managed to obtain intelligence from the battlefield.

"Tch, putting on airs. Let me see just how capable you really are." Ye Yulong sneered and suddenly sprang into action.

He immediately entered a demonic state, unfurled his demonic wings, and charged straight at Bai Jian!

Seeing this, Ye Yang also suddenly pushed off with his feet, his whole body burning with demonic flames, and rushed forward!

"Overestimating your abilities." Bai Jian didn't even stand still. He swung his longsword horizontally, and before anyone could see what happened, Ye Yulong and Ye Yang were sent flying backward.

Ye Yulong was instantly forced back to his normal state from his demonic state. He grunted and flew more than thirty meters away, crashing into two tents before coming to a stop.

Ye Yang fell heavily to the ground with a thud, his face contorted in pain.

Upon closer inspection, a long sword wound was discovered in his abdomen! The wound looked very deep, and his intestines were visible, with blood gushing out continuously.

"Beast Taming Summoning - Cartoon Shark"

"Beast Taming Summoning - Bloodstained Octopus"

Ye Mengyu threw out two small balls that looked like Pokémon. One of the balls turned into a monster that looked like a shark, while the other ball produced a blood-red octopus.

Bai Jian didn't even glance at it.

With a single sword strike, the cartoon shark was cut in two.

With another sword strike, the blood-stained octopus was severed into four pieces and fell to the ground, its body turning into a pool of blood...

"boom!"

Ye Qingxin pulled the trigger of the "Destruction" sniper rifle.

A terrifying beam of red soul energy shot out from the muzzle of the large-caliber sniper rifle, accompanied by a deafening roar!

Bai Jian simply parried with his sword; the bullets struck the blade, only scattering some sparks.

The Shadow Assassins also joined the attack on Bai Jian.

However, after a series of attacks, they couldn't even get close.

'No, that's too strong...'

Ye Qingxin pursed her lips: 'The difference in strength is too great; they're not even in the same league.'

'and......'

Ye Qingxin looked at Bai Qing beside her.

Bai Qing stood aside without making a move.

She stood there quietly, seemingly with no intention of helping, but her hands remained in a mudra position.

'Is she casting a spell?'

Nighttime brings quiet contemplation.

However, she had maintained that hand seal for so long, and nothing had happened at all...

What exactly is her ability?

'It should be almost done...' Bai Jian thought to himself, 'Xiao Qing should be finishing soon too.'

"Copy Sword Technique - Shadow Severing!"

At that moment, several invisible sword energies suddenly attacked him!

"???!"

Bai Jian's heart skipped a beat, and when he turned around, he saw Ye Ge instead!

He held Guangli in one hand and Yingyue in the other, crossing his arms to make a combined slashing motion.

"Copy Sword Technique - Double Shadow Severing!"

"Ding Ding Ding!"

Bai Jian instinctively raised his sword to block, and countless sword energies collided with his sword, making a "clanging" sound.

Ye Ge's two moves didn't have much offensive power, after all, he was a low-level superhuman. What surprised Bai Jian was that Ye Ge could actually use "Phantom Severing"?

This move is an extremely difficult sword technique, and he didn't fully learn it until he awakened as a Soul Swordsman!

Bai Jian looked up and saw Ye Ge actually coming towards him, accompanied by surging black mist behind him.

"A being from another realm deliberately approached me?"

Bai Jian's eyes narrowed: "You're courting death!"

With a swift "whoosh," the Ling Sha sword in his hand swept across!

But Ye Ge's figure vanished into black mist with a "bang," dodging the fatal sword strike.

At the same time, he cast the spell again.

"Darkin - Curse of Doomsday!"

Accompanied by the sharp cawing of crows, a dozen jet-black crows flew out from the black fog!

When Bai Jian saw these crows, his expression changed slightly. He had just been hit by the doomsday curse once and knew how strange this move was. Even if it only lasted for 0.1 seconds, he would never dare to gamble on it!

So he immediately chose to avoid it, escaping the black fog and crows.

"call......"

Night Song's figure appeared a dozen meters away, accompanied by the black mist.

He raised his hand and made a gesture.

[Night Song: Now!]

Night Song issued commands to all Shadow Assassins via the system's encrypted voice chat.

Upon receiving his command, the dozens of Shadow Assassins dispersed once more.

Each person held a black iron chain in their hand, and with a "whoosh," the chains were thrown at Bai Jian from all directions!

"Whoosh-"

"Whoosh-"

"Whoosh-"

The black iron chain swung out at an extremely fast speed!

In order to avoid the black mist and crows, Bai Jian's space for movement had been sealed off by Ye Ge, and more than a dozen black iron chains immediately wrapped around his body.

Some chains bound his arms, some his waist, and others his legs...

More than fifty iron chains were locked onto Bai Jian's body almost at the same time!

Some chains, having nowhere to be secured, would wrap themselves around other chains, linking them together to form a clasp, making the other chains more secure.

In the blink of an eye, Bai Jian was unable to move!

Bai Jian's heart tightened.

Suddenly, he seemed to understand something.

'That kid, he did it on purpose!'

'During that previous doomsday curse, he deliberately made me aware of the strangeness of this move, causing me to develop a psychological aversion to it. So, I would subconsciously avoid being hit by this black mist...'

Bai Jian looked up heavily and saw Ye Ge's smiling face. He knew he had guessed correctly.
