Rise of the Demon God

Long Chen looked at the small bottle in his hand, which was trying to give him a clue about what he had to do to pass the trial.

Despite being prepared to kill people, he was still conflicted if he was actually understanding the trial correctly.
If he were wrong, he would have killed millions of people for nothing. 

He took a deep breath, shaking his head before turning back.
He wanted to know more about this world first.
If it was a weak world like he saw, then this trial actually didn ’t make sense, and there might have been something more to it. 

However, if there was something challenging, then he could be sure that he was on the right track. 

He flew back to the small house where Arin was waiting for him. 

Arin had thought about running quite a lot in Long Chen ’s absence, but he gave up the thought, especially because he was greedy about the prospects of turning Long Chen to his side. 

The door of the small house opened, and Long Chen stepped inside. 

”I ’m back.
You can start speaking. ”

”Did anyone follow you? ” Arin asked. 

”Who would follow me? ” Long Chen asked, frowning.
It was slightly surprising how this guy was so scared. 

He was scared when he saw Long Chen kill people.
Seeing that, Long Chen had thought that he was scared of the authorities Linking him with the murders, but that notion was long gone after Long Chen saw the lawlessness in the city. 

Moreover, the man himself tried to lead Long Chen to his death.
It was clear that he wasn ’t as scared of death as he claimed to be.
So his fears were slightly odd.

”No one followed me.
Now start speaking, ” Long Chen replied, sitting on the bed.
”What is this city? ” 

”So you ’re really new to the city.
Actually, it ’s not even a city.
It ’s a small town, possibly the smallest in the Continent of Sins. ”

”Continent of Sins? ”

”That ’s what we call it.
It ’s a place where you can do anything you want.
A place where you can commit any crimes, as long as you have the strength and the authority.
You like women, take them.
You like money, rob people.
You like treasures? Steal them! You hate some people? Beat them up in the middle of the street, ” Arin explained. 

”What ’s the catch? ” Long Chen asked. 

”Catch? ”

”I mean, what ’s the thing you aren ’t telling me about? If all the crimes are fine, why were you scared when you saw me murder? ” Long Chen asked.
”You said I would be in trouble if anyone saw me? Why? ”

”That…
I was just bluffing to… ”

”To…? ” Long Chen asked, giving a devilish grin.
So he was lying to lead Long Chen to this place where his friends could kill him.
”To lead me here where you could kill me? ”

”N-not kill.
It was so I could help you meet my friend and make you join our hang, ” Arin answered, trying to justify himself. 

Even though Long Chen knew that he was lying, he went along with it.

”So it ’s a world where you can do anything as long as you have enough strength? No rules? ” Long Chen asked. 

”You know the saying? Rules are for the weak? In this world, even the weak don ’t have rules.
Everything goes, ” Arin answered. 

”Do you have a map of this world? Where are the cities? The path to get to them? ” Long Chen asked. 

” Map? I do have one, but why do you want that? Cities are even more chaotic.
They have strong cultivators there.
Any mistake can have you killed.
Instead of going to the city and being at the mercy of others, why don ’t you stay here? ” Arin suggested. 

”With your strength and my brain, we can rule this town! All the money and treasure will be ours.
We will be the kings! ” He added. 

”Kings? ” Long Chen smiled. 

If he wanted to be the king, why would he travel so far? He could have ruled his world instead of leaving it.
He wasn ’t interesting in ruling a mortal world, let alone ruling a small town in the mortal world 

Since his life depended on him becoming stronger, he couldn ’t stay content with his life, let alone living in a small town away from his family. 

”Show me the map, ” he told Arin. 

”If you say so. ” Arin weirdly looked at Long Chen before standing up. 

He walked back to the wardrobe and opened it.
Inside the wardrobe, he pulled a drawer.

”You ’re lucky I had one.
It isn ’t that easy to find the map in a small town like this. ” He closed the drawer and walked back to Long Chen with the scroll. 

”This is the map of this kingdom. ” He gave the scroll to Long Chen.

Long Chen opened the scroll and looked inside. 

”Where are we at the moment? ” Long Chen asked. 

Arin placed his finger on the map.
”We are right about here. ”

”All the places marked with red are major cities.
The place marked with green is the Royal City.
And the towns are marked with yellow, ” Arin explained.

”So I ’m the farthest from the Royal City, ” Long Chen said, realizing that he was just at the border of the Kingdom. 

”If I go over the border, will I end up in another nation? Do you have their map? ”

”There ’s no other nation on that side.
That ’s just a barren land where no one lives.
When people can live in the towns and cities to rob others easily, why would they live in the barren land? ” Arin asked. 

”So I need to travel south only, ” Long Chen scrolled back the map.

”Wait.
Are you really leaving? What about ganging up with me? ” Arin asked.
”You can ’t leave like that.
You must stay behind! Be the king of this town! ”

Long Chen shook his head.
He moved Arin aside and started leaving. 

”I told you I don ’t be staying here. ” He stopped right before the door.
He observed the glass bottle in his hand.  ”And neither will you… ”

Winds started flying inside the room.
Arin felt something on his throat. 

He looked down while touching his neck; however, as soon as he lowered his head, it rolled onto the ground.
His body fell soon after. 

Long Chen nodded in satisfaction, watching the bottle have even more red dots inside. 

”As expected, ” he rubbed his chin. 

He left the small house, starting his quest….
A quest of death and destruction which was the only way to get out of this world, according to him.
