The Legendary F Rank

Chapter 330: Ugh… Humans…



"It's been a while huh? I thought that we got you in the last attack but I guess even rats can survive catastrophes sometimes." The man Haru knew as Mr Ma said as he walked into the light from the open window revealing his dark purple skin and pitch black horns on his head.

Despite his human appearance the last time Haru had seen him he was quick to recognise him by his general facial features that remained unchanged as his appearance was obviously a lot different than it was before.

Before Mr Ma could say another word, Haru flew towards him like a mad man as he pulled his sword out from his storage ring and began slashing left and right in hopes that one of his blows would land. Although all technique had been thrown out of the window with his blind rage. Haru's strikes were strong enough to rip through the steel supports of the building as he slashed out towards the demon before him.

"Ahghh!" Haru yelled as he lost all sense of reason and began attacking as the memories of Suyin dying in his arms flooded his mind. 

'He was the one who gave me that house! I thought it was safe but the barrier ended up getting destroyed somehow!' Haru thought as he continued on his rampage of swinging around his sword in every direction. But his movements were too predictable for them to land.

Mr Ma easily evaded each strike with a smug look on his face as he knew exactly why Haru had lost his cool.

"Oh, Did I do something to make you mad? I thought we were friends. You certainly didn't act like this the last time we spoke to each other." Mr Ma mocked as Haru's rage only grew deeper. 

"You fucking bastard! I will kill you!" Haru yelled out as something seemed to be brewing deep within him. 

'This is bad… I wasn't going to intervene but… Haru, you need to calm down right now! You're becoming unstable.' Ralph called out from within Haru's soul ocean but his warning fell upon deaf ears as Haru was too transfixed on Mr Ma.

"Oh? You're going to kill me? I doubt you have the ability. Just look at you. You're full of openings. I could kill you at any second but I'm quite enjoying that look on your face. That look of despair is simply delicious." Mr Ma cackled to himself as Haru continued to leap around the room after him. 

Haru was on autopilot. His body was moving on instinct alone as his mind was in shambles, thinking about all the things that he had yet to do. All the time that he had lost with the woman he loved. But just as he was about to attack once again he remembered Suyin's face as closed his eyes for a second and paused.

"I- I'm sorry," Haru spoke softly before falling to his knees and letting go of his sword causing it to crash against the floor and rattle a few times before coming to a stop as Mr Ma put his foot on the blade, thinking that it was a trap to make him let his guard down.

But Haru felt nothing but defeat. He wasn't even thinking about the two demons in the room with him as all his thoughts were of that night in shanghai.

A tear dropped from Haru's eye and rolled down his cheek as he looked up at Mr Ma with a weak smile. 

"For heaven's sake, Hanying. Are you going to tell me what all this is about? Or are you planning to keep me in the dark forever? Do you know this human?" The red demon asked as he remained standing in the shadows.

"Let's just kill him already and get it over with. What's the point in playing with your food?" He shouted out to Ma Hanying one more time but was silenced as Mr Ma raised his hand.

"Now is not the time. I feel something incredible happening. Just look at his Qi." Mr Ma said as Haru continued to kneel on the floor. But unlike before a yellow glow seemed to shine from beneath his skin.

"What is that!?" The red demon shouted out in both surprise and interest as the glow only became brighter and brighter followed by an increase in temperature in the room that Haru seemed to be the cause of. 

'Haru! Listen to me. If you don't calm down then you won't be able to remain in this realm anymore. Once that power activates you will be forced up into the upper realms.' Ralph warned Haru once again about the dangers of letting his anger and grief absorb him. But the sudden meeting was too much for his mind to handle as he hadn't properly healed from that day. 

The golden glow continued to become brighter until Haru's clothes set ablaze as his body became engulfed in flames. 

"Hanying! Explain what's going on! Those flames are dangerous to our kind!" The red demon yelled out once again but the new evolution of Haru's power seemed to be something that not even Mr Ma had predicted and he remained still, in shock from what he was seeing. 

The flames that twisted their way around Haru's body seemed to come from deep within his dantian and were a direct result of having a phoenix bloodline beast within him. But Li Jun had made it clear that Kun wasn't just any Phoenix and not even the only remaining dragon had knowledge of Kun's species. 

Yet the fire that burned from Haru's soul was something the demons called a purifying flame. Across the upper realms, there were seven of these flames that all contained the power to burn even the threads of fate themselves. But if the flames were to touch anyone that practised demonic cultivation techniques, both their body and soul would be instantly destroyed. 

"Hanying! I hope you plan to kill him before this spirals out of control! I don't like the feeling I'm getting right now!" The red demon yelled out once again before looking up at Mr Ma to see that he had a fearful look in his eyes as he observed Haru.

"You good for nothing! Fine, I will do it myself!" The red demon yelled before holding out his hand and bringing forth a sword that looked as though it was crafted from the bones of a huge creature. 

He raised the sword above his head before running towards Haru with the intent to kill him to avoid any more interference with their plan. 

But as soon as he took a few steps forward a spear made of fire shot out from Haru's back and struck the red demon directly in the chest. The flames pierced the demon and then began to wrap around his body before eventually absorbing every drop of his life force and then returning back towards Haru.

Hanying's fear quickly turned into solid terror as he quickly turned around and bolted towards the window in fear of being the next one to die as he didn't understand just what was happening. But as soon as he took his first step another spear shout out, this time piercing Hanying's leg.

The flame began to spread out and move upwards towards the rest of Hanying's body before he made a quick decision.

Hanying raised his hand and slammed his palm against the bone in his thigh, causing it to break in two before using the talon-like nails on his fingers to rip the flesh away before diving out from the window.

Hanying's leg lifted high up into the air before vanishing as that two was absorbed by Haru as he remained kneeling. But Hanying had managed to escape with his life still intact.

Once he could no longer feel the demonic presence, Haru instinctively collapsed from exhaustion and fell backwards onto the hard wooden floor. 

"I told you to stop, didn't I! You need to get out of your head if you want to take revenge. You still haven't accepted what happened have you!?" Ralph yelled out as Haru opened his eyes to see he was in the floating mansion once again and Ralph was standing over him. 

"What are you talking about! I know what happened and I can't ever forgive him for that." Haru spoke with a confused look on his face as he replied to Ralph's questions.

"Ugh… Humans… I didn't ask if you know what happened. I was asking you if you can accept what happened. But you said enough. Of course, you haven't accepted it. You will never get revenge at this rate. What's the point in fighting anymore? You should just give up already." Ralph sighed as Haru lowered his head in shame. 

"Li Jun asked me to keep you safe. But at this rate, you will get yourself killed. It would be much easier to destroy your dantian and let you live a normal life. You're not suited to be a cultivator if you can't even defeat yourself." Ralph explained before taking a few steps forward and placing his hand on Haru's head.

"But, If I did that. He wouldn't be very happy. I guess the best way to teach you, humans, is through repetition. So here, why don't you experience hell for a little bit?" Ralph spoke with a grin as he injected Qi into Haru's brain causing the scenery to change and become clouded with dust as a familiar sight emerged from the distance.
