War God Long Ao

「One day later.」

「In the main hall of the Third Level Long Family.」

After receiving Duan He's notice, Long Mowen was utterly shocked. He had never imagined that Long Ao could actually be the reincarnation of a powerful expert from the Long Clan. 'This is a huge problem.'

"Sect Leader, is Duan He joking?"

"Impossible. I've heard of this before. When a Martial Artist reaches Nirvana Rebirth, they condense Heaven and Earth's Momentum. Even if they have Fallen, their soul can use that momentum to force its way into Reincarnation and Seal its own memories."

"Sect Leader, can everyone succeed?"

"There's a one-in-ten chance."

Hearing this, Long Yan was greatly alarmed. After a moment of thought, he asked, "Sect Leader, what should we do now?"

"Duan He just informed us that we cannot let Long Ao live, no matter what. If Long Ao really is a reincarnation, the consequences will be unimaginable when his true self awakens."

Long Mowen knew very well that to achieve reincarnation, one had to reach Nirvana Rebirth at the very minimum. 'Once such a powerful expert's true self awakens, even the Four Great Forces combined might not be a match for Long Ao.'

Long Ao was completely unaware of the Four Great Forces' speculation.

'Me, a reincarnation?'

If Long Ao knew, he would probably laugh his head off. However, he didn't linger. He knew that the Four Great Forces must be incandescent with rage right now. If he stuck around, they definitely wouldn't let the matter rest.

The Kyushu Spirit Realm was boundless and vast.

In the southernmost part of the Kyushu Spirit Realm lay a desolate, uninhabited wasteland.

In the far south of the Kyushu Spirit Realm was an enormous town known as the City of Sin.

As its name implied, many powerful, thrill-seeking Martial Artists from across the Celestial Martial Continent who were guilty of heinous crimes would continuously flood into the City of Sin.

After a three-day journey, Long Ao finally arrived at the City of Sin. He was somewhat astonished as he gazed at the massive city before him. The City of Sin was like a Heaven-Devouring behemoth, looking as if it could swallow Heaven and Earth whole.

"Kid, get the fuck out of my way."

Just then, a drunkard carrying a jug of wine staggered over. Seeing Long Ao blocking his path, he seemed extremely displeased.

"Fuck's sake! A good dog doesn't block the path, don't you fucking know that?"

Long Ao's expression darkened, but he ultimately held back. After all, this was the City of Sin. He had just arrived and didn't want to stir up unnecessary trouble.

"Fuck you."

Seeing Long Ao remain silent, Luo Mo took a swig of wine and lashed out with a vicious kick. It looked like a simple, powerless strike, but was in fact terrifyingly powerful, for Luo Mo was a genuine Celestial Venerable Martial Artist.

Not daring to be careless, Long Ao dodged to the side. A gasp of surprise escaped Luo Mo, who apparently hadn't expected Long Ao to be able to evade his kick.

Luo Mo's first kick missed, and he immediately followed up with another vicious one, which also hit nothing but air. 'The first time might have been an accident, but was the second time also an accident?'

At that moment, Luo Mo finally sobered up a bit. He said in great surprise, "I never would've thought... you're a Celestial Venerable Martial Artist, too. Impressive. To have reached this level at your age is impressive, very impressive indeed."

"Old drunkard, are you fucking bullying people again?"

Watching the glamorous woman who had suddenly appeared, Long Ao felt he was truly getting a taste of the people from the City of Sin. He realized that no matter who it was, their speech was laced with profanity; every other word seemed to be a curse.

But he was one to adapt. Long Ao didn't dislike the people of the City of Sin. He understood that the people here were far more genuine than those outside; they dared to love and hate, and they took responsibility for their actions.

Because of this, Long Ao just gave a helpless smile, not bothering to engage with the pair. He turned to enter the City of Sin.

"Hey, handsome. If I'm not mistaken, this is your first time in the City of Sin, isn't it? If you don't have enough Beast Pills, I guarantee you won't last ten minutes. But if you flash a ton of Beast Pills, I can also guarantee you'll die faster than anyone."

Hearing this, Long Ao stopped dead in his tracks.

He turned back and asked curiously, "Why is that?"

"Pfft. I can tell you're a total newbie. Alright, since you're easy on the eyes, I'll fill you in. Come here."

It was Long Ao's first time in the City of Sin, and he knew nothing about the place, so he didn't dare enter rashly. From the way the two spoke, Long Ao could tell they must have been around the City of Sin for a long time—they were real old-timers.

"What's your name?"

"Long Ao."

"Long Ao?"

Wen Lan wracked her brain, searching for any information related to the name Long Ao, but ultimately came up empty.

Long Ao might be famous outside, but in the City of Sin, his name meant nothing. It was understandable that the two of them hadn't heard of him. If they knew that the young man standing before them had recently crippled the Four Great Forces and assassinated their Core Disciples, one could only wonder what they would think.

"My name is Wen Lan. You can call me Sister Wen or Sister Lan. As for him, you can just call him old drunkard."

"Fuck," the old drunkard muttered, clearly annoyed but also seemingly afraid of Wen Lan. He only grumbled a few words and didn't dare say more.

"Little Long, since this is your first time in the City of Sin, I'm sure you don't know much about it. Let me first tell you a few things about the city."

Wen Lan found a spot for the three of them to sit down. Then, she began, "The City of Sin has Five Great Emperors: Eastern Emperor Luo Tian, West Emperor Nameless, Southern Emperor Zhou Chen, Northern Emperor Ye Feng, and the Central Emperor, Nangong Tu. Because of them, the City of Sin is divided into five major sectors. The Five Great Emperors have always kept to themselves, each minding their own business."

The Five Great Emperors.

"The Five Great Emperors once made a pact that no matter the grievance, fighting is forbidden within the City of Sin. Anyone caught will be killed on the spot, no questions asked. Oh, and each of the Five Great Emperors has their own City Guards. Every single City Guard is a Great Venerable, so even if you're a Celestial Venerable, you'd better behave."

To say Long Ao wasn't shocked would be a lie. He had never imagined that the City Guards of the City of Sin were all Great Venerables. 'It's hard to fathom what level the Five Great Emperors must be. Realm Kings? Or perhaps Realm Emperors?'

Long Ao was almost certain that the Five Great Emperors of the City of Sin were Realm Emperors. A Realm King's power just didn't seem sufficient to dominate a place like the City of Sin.

"Little Long, there's a clear rule in the City of Sin: everyone who enters has to pay with Beast Pills. The longer you stay, the more Beast Pills you have to pay. Unless you buy a house here and settle down permanently, a single night's stay in the City of Sin will bankrupt you. So, if you don't have enough Beast Pills, you'd best not go in, or the City Guards will come looking for you."

The City of Sin ate people whole and didn't even spit out the bones.
