The Legend of Min Hong

Chapter 532: Sons Of The Shadows



Chapter 532: Sons Of The Shadows

'He has suspected nothing Haha, it seems this would be easier than expected'

The shadow grinned evilly as he lurked behind Min Hong, following him as he moved past one tree after the other, heading towards a lurky corner where crimes are easy to commit with easy escape routes to prevent being caught

Min Hong moved past two to three more trees and the shadow kept jumping and melding from shadow to shadow

Then when Min Hong moved into the corner, the shadow peeled out of the closest tree and jumped towards Min Hong,

But then Min Hong abruptly paused and the shadow of the figure on the ground could be seen trying as much as possible to halt its advance;

Then when the figure realized it was impossible and already too late it simply jumped into Min Hong's shadow and melded into it

All Min Hong could feel at that point was a chilly breeze blow past him from the back as all the hair on the back of his hair rose to their roots

Goosebumps covered him and from then on, his neck and back began to ache him, making him feel like someone was standing or clinging to his back

'Oh, he still hasn't sensed me yet To think that me a whole 4 Star Saint Stage expert is scared about a Peak Nascent Soul kid sensing my presence'

'I must have been getting overly cautious or becoming really paranoid these days'

The shadow thought to itself as he kept moving in tandem with Min Hong's shadows on the ground

'That's a fantastic technique to think the only discomfort I am feeling from him clinging to me is a simple neck and back ache'

Min Hong thought in wonder as he finally entered the corner where no one could see him including anyone standing on the hall way, as the shadow thought to itself;

'Alright, it is go time'

'By the access granted to me by the 'Power of Demons'; I , a [Son of the Shadows] hereby brand this soul with the [Haunted mark]' 

The shadow muttered to itself as it made some rapid but mystical hand seals;

'It is just like the one the Left Grand Elder was making earlier, but he is quite faster with it than the left grand elder'

Min Hong thought to himself as he kept watching the shadow do its thing without raising suspicions

Then within the next few breaths, a mysterious seal that was just as ancient and old as the Minion Mark of the Imperial Edict Seal, as Min Hong frowned at the strangeness of everything, as he wondered why these guys could wield a seal that has almost the same power as his own Imperial Edict Seal;

'I guess I really need to see Old Man Li to get some explanations...'

Min Hong thought to himself as he see the shadow finally complete the hand seals, and just as the shadow was about to stamp the seal on Min Hong's back, Min Hong abruptly spoke;

"Alright, that's enough" He said as the shadow force in shock;

'Un?' It blurted in shock;

'He couldn't be talking to me, could he?'

The figure asked before shaking its head like it was thinking too much about things;

'This paranoia is already getting out of hand'

The shadow thought to itself as he prepared to slam the seal onto Min Hong once again;

"You can stop hanging over me now and step out"

Min Hong spoke once again, and this time, the shadow blanched in fear as he realized he had been found out from the beginning, and out of desperation he tried to quickly stamp Min Hong with the seal before fleeing, but Min Hong simply smirked and looked to his shadow on the ground

Then Min Hong's shadow on the ground all of a sudden stabbed its hand its body before dragging something out of its body, but in the physical realm, Min Hong was actually grabbing the neck of a purple light with a human figure clad in a cloud of smoke

Ahk Ah kk!

The figure was choking as Min Hong squeezed its neck and looked towards it with a fake smile and his eyes narrowed into slits;

"Alright if you want to live, I will simply ask you some questions and you must answer them, am I clear?" Min Hong spoke to it as the figure he was grabbing nodded its head in a fidgety manner;

"Alright, so where do we begin?" Min Hong asked as the shadow suddenly had a puzzled look on his face, as Min Hong added;

"Oh, you have no idea How about we start by telling me what exactly you are?"

Min Hong asked and this time his smile faded and was replaced by the most solemn smoldering gaze he could muster causing the shadow to almost break out in sweat of terror

"I-I'm a 'Son of the Shadows' and we are simply errand men to the demons of Yao" The Figure confessed;

"Son of the shadows?"

"Demons of Yao?"

"Or do you mean Yao Demons?" Min Hong fired one after the other;

"Yao Demons?"

"Who calls themselves that?"

"We are not worthy of being called Yao's demons"

The figure belittled not only himself but every other entities Min Hong might possibly know who have been referring to themselves as Yao Demons;

"What do you mean?" Min Hong asked with a frown;

"You don't even know who Yao is, do you?" The figure asked;

"Well, that's why I have my hands on your throat"

Min Hong replied as the shadow's spine tingled once again; normally, shadow beings never get caught as they are neither beings made by physical bodies, Qi or soul power

They are beings created from thoughts, and thus do not have any form of substance to themselves;

Thus, it was quite stunned that not only could Min Hong sense him, but actually catch him, and there were no explanations to such situations, at least none that their entire clan and religion knew of

Thus, he was extremely petrified to realize that a human could actually catch him, and that told him that this kid, whoever he was, was someone who could snuff him out if he wished it

"Firstly, we the sons of the shadows are beings born from accumulated thoughts of every other sentient being" The figure began as Min Hong paid attention
