A Tale of Chase and Love s1

“I am flattered, master.” Ju Wei said and bowed his head.

He then transformed into a beam of light and entered back onto the dragon bone whip which the figure picked.

The people were a bit doubtful now. What is going on? As to an answer to their questions, the figure turned to face them.

“Remember this, I am Lord Long Ren,” he said loudly.

Hearing this name, they then understood why Ju Wei was not scared of him. He’s the spirit of the dragon bone whip. The legendary whip that was capable of breaking a man in two with just two lashes.

The show performed by the spirit was horrible. Now the teacher or master has come to take over. Wouldn’t it be better for them all to just die?

Jin Ming on recognizing Long Ren, went on his knees the moment he had dropped down from mid-air.

“This lowly one pays respect to your lordship,” said Jin Ming.

Seeing that Jin Ming was paying respects to him, the others followed JIn Ming’s footsteps.

“Fellow citizens, I am not here to harm you. I’m here because of this man. He is evil and has nearly killed my mistress. So I told Ju Wei to take care of him before I return and he has done his job. So it’s time for you to do your part. Whatever I do to him, you must cheer for me to support me. Got it? This is not a request, it’s an order.” said Long Ren. He then took out another dagger from his storage ring.

Li Chen seeing that the true master of evil had come, he knew he was done for. Long Ren knelt close to him and began to slash at different parts of his body making blood flow out at various parts.

Li Chen, as usual, could not cry out his pain. Tears slid down his eyes when he recalled his father’s warning. How he wished he had listened. But the harsh reality was that there is no medicine for regret.

After branding Li Chen with the dagger, he then brought out salt and applied it to Li Chen’s wounds. The audience swallowed saliva and began to cheer for him weakly.

Li Chen’s voice was unsealed and he cried for his mummy but unfortunately, his mummy would not be there for him. The audience was crying profusely while trying to either cheer or clap for Long Ren.

They prayed very earnestly that he would look upon them favorably and let them go. Long Ren took one more glance at Li Chen before his eyes turned red with fury.

“Li Chen, remember this, there is no next life for you. Just as you tortured my mistress and tried to kill me so I will do to you. Recall when you wanted to use me as a goodbye meal, you recall that right?” Ren asked.

Li Chen could only nod despite the pain he felt.Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.

“You wanted to rape my mistress for what reason? No one except her other half is worthy of touching her back. Who do you think you are, Li Chen?” he asked. His eyes had turned to dark purple eyes showed that his anger had reached the peak.

“This is the final torture I give you,” Ren said and he brought out a golden sword.

Li family residence.

The Li family were not rich and neither were they poor. However, they had several cultivators in their family.

One of their sons was an alchemist apprentice and the other happens to be Li Chen who is currently being ‘served’ by Long Ren. At this time, it was already evening and so they were preparing to light the lamps.

Suddenly, a blast of wind hit the ancestral image in the ancestral hall. A servant who saw this alerted the Li family patriarch who is 100 years old and in Master sage level 1. The patriarch quickly raced to the hall and went on his knees when he saw that the ancestral image had been broken into unrecognizable pieces.

“This is a bad omen. A bad omen. Ye Feng get the whole household here now!”The patriarch ordered.

“Yes, great lord,” said a young servant who could not cultivate. He was about 15 years old. He quickly retreated and ran back inside the house in search of the Li family members.

In less than 10 minutes the Li family members had arrived at the ancestral hall and had gone on their knees. This bad omen should be averted by all costs.

“Where is Li Chen?” the patriarch asked.

“Replying to the great lord, young master has not been seen since afternoon,” said Ye Feng.

“What? Why did you not report to me? Where could that rascal be? I hope he didn’t get himself into some trouble. We have to perform rituals but without him how can we go on? Find him!”the patriarch barked.

“Yes, great lord!” three guards replied and left immediately. However, in less than a minute, their heads rolled back towards the patriarch. This stunned all of them and they were on alert.

The Patriarch stood up and requested the intruder to show themselves. However, what they got in response was a casket that suddenly appeared in their midst.

On the top was a letter. The patriarch told the others to back away while he picked the letter by himself and opened it. It was written in blood.

‘ “Li family, relocate in three days or I’ll exterminate you from mother earth” by Ren.’

This was the short content but it was indeed a threat.

“Father, what’s it about?” asked a middle-aged man who is the older version of LI Chen, likely his father.

“Open the casket,” the patriarch ordered.

“Yes, father,” Li Chen’s father said and then he stepped forward to open the casket. When he did so, what greeted them was a swarm of bees. These were not ordinary bees but devil bees.

These devil bees can cause one to be blind for 9 days if not properly treated in time. Another thing is that one of the ingredients called ‘red missile’ was almost extinct. It was obvious the sender of these bees wanted them to die.

Since they were caught unawares. they were unable to protect themselves and their children from being stung. After being stung by the bees for 5 minutes, the bees went away and also 7 more caskets appeared scaring all of them.

“What’s going on? Who wants our entire family dead this much?” a little boy cried as he hugged his mother. The caskets opened by themselves and the sight stunned them even more.

The first casket contained Li Chen’s head, the second had lichen’s cooked third leg, the third contained his intestines, the fourth and fifth contained his hands, the sixth contained his legs and the seventh contained the remaining battered parts of Li Chen’s body.

Seeing this many vomited however his mother fainted while his father sank to his knees. The patriarch looked towards the sky and back at the ancestral image.

“We should do as he says. We are to relocate in three days time” the patriarch gave his final verdict and disappeared to his chambers.
