Chapter 88: Chapter 88: Night Demon Apostle, Ninja
Thud
Qin Tian jumped down from the wall, walking slowly to the side of the black clothed man, lowering his head to look down at him.
He had already noticed a few days ago that someone was secretly monitoring him at school.
This guy’s stealth methods are indeed sophisticated, but there is one thing that can never be hidden, and that is body temperature, or rather, heat source.
Everyone’s heat signature has slight differences.
When there is a heat source constantly surrounding him, Qin Tian immediately understood that someone was tracking and monitoring him.
It wasn’t appropriate to make a move at school, so he lured the person to this secluded place after dinner.
If it were a direct battle, resolving this black clothed man wouldn’t be that easy.
Therefore, he chose a more reliable method.
First, he deliberately startled the snake by exposing a sniper rifle, making the black clothed man focus on the gun, and then used the triple combination of [Black Gate] + Bone-Eroding Hand + poison to inject the toxin into the black clothed man unexpectedly.
Obviously, this combination technique worked.
"Monitoring me, must be someone from Wen Chengxian."
Qin Tian squatted down, a trace of coldness flashing in his eyes.
Just in time, I’ll also give you a little show of intrigue.
He pulled open the black clothed man’s sleeve, Qin Tian opened his mouth, his two canine teeth becoming sharp, turning into two fangs in an instant.
Thud~
The fangs bit into the upper arm, piercing the muscle, as a mysterious dark power flowed into the black clothed man’s body through the fangs, transforming his physique.
A few seconds later
Qin Tian released his mouth, grabbed the black clothed man’s neck, and in a blink, disappeared into the alley.
...
"Ugh, what’s happened to me?"
The black clothed man slowly opened his eyes, greeted by a pair of deep, calm eyes.
"Awake."
Qin Tian looked at him calmly and said: "If you’re awake, then stand up."
"You..."
The black clothed man opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but at this moment, a mysterious force compelled him to nod involuntarily.
"Yes, Master."
Master, what am I saying
The black clothed man stood up, his eyes filled with astonishment.
The power of the bloodline and his long-held perceptions were in serious conflict, making his brain extremely confused, and a look of pain appeared in his eyes.
Qin Tian silently watched.
After dozens of seconds, the black clothed man slowly relaxed his body, respectfully bowing and saying:
"Master."
"Hmm."
Qin Tian nodded with satisfaction at his first Night Demon Apostle.
Apostle Transformation, one of the Night Demon’s abilities.
It works similarly to a vampire’s embrace, converting someone into a subordinate apostle through blood infection, granting them absolute loyalty.
The black clothed man quietly observed his surroundings, realizing it was an abandoned small factory, no one inside, the air carrying a faint rust smell.
"You were sent by Wen Chengxian to monitor me, right?" Qin Tian asked.
The black clothed man lowered his head and said: "Yes."
"What’s your name and specific identity?"
"Master, my name is Li Qi, a member of the Wen Family’s Shadow Division."
As expected, it’s the Wen Family.
Qin Tian coldly smiled, then said:
"Explain your situation clearly."
"Yes!"
Li Qi was an orphan adopted by the Wen Family from a young age.
At the age of six, the Wen Family selected a group of gifted children from among many orphans, appointing a ninja from the Amaterasu Star Realm as their teacher, thus beginning rigorous and harsh training.
Many orphans died in training each year, meanwhile, batches of orphans continuously joined.
Years later, some orphans awakened their Spiritual Energy, officially becoming ninjas.
They entered the Shadow Division to work for the Wen Family, carrying out various tasks such as lurking, assassination, intelligence gathering, and more.
Li Qi was one of them, being ranked seventh in strength, hence named Li Qi.
After hearing this, Qin Tian’s apprehension about the Wen Family grew another layer; Li Qi was a Tier Three Nine star Spiritualist, and in the Shadow Division, six members were stronger than him, not including the chief and deputy chief of the division.
And the Shadow Division was merely the tip of the iceberg of the Wen Family’s power.
"Aside from monitoring me, did Wen Chengxian instruct anything else?" Qin Tian asked.
Li Qi truthfully said:
"The focus was on monitoring you, Master, to see if you’ve ever returned to Twilight Ridge, if so, to notify the Shadow Division immediately."
"Hah, seems they still don’t trust me."
A flash of coldness surfaced in Qin Tian’s eyes.
He didn’t know if Wen Chengxian had fallen into his trap, sending people to Twilight Ridge to search for Amber.
If so, that would be what he most wanted to see.
Qin Tian looked directly at Li Qi and said calmly:
"You are now my Night Demon Apostle, your body has undergone significant changes due to the Night Demon Power, feel it yourself."
Actually, without Qin Tian’s words, Li Qi had already sensed the difference in his body upon opening his eyes.
The world became extraordinarily clear, his vision, hearing, and smell greatly enhanced.
His body felt as though a thousand-pound burden had been lifted off, light as a bird.
Muscles, bones, and veins became more resilient, an overwhelming sense of power surged within him.
The Dark Spiritual Energy seemed refined, becoming purer, with surrounding Dark Spiritual Ability Factors drawing nearer to him, a significant sign of increased Dark Affinity.
His body seemed to have undergone a bloodline surgery, instantly transforming from an ordinary spiritualist to a Bloodline Martial Artist.
Furthermore, he realized there was a peculiar power within him, once activated, it would trigger even more miraculous responses.
Night Demon Apostle, this is the power of the Night Demon.
Li Qi’s eyes lit up as he activated the Bloodline Power.
Thud~
Fangs pierced out from the gums, the skin on his back began to wriggle, and abruptly, a pair of Black Wings unfolded, generating strong gusts of wind.
"Is this... really me?"
Li Qi stared dumbfounded at the Black Wings behind him, disbelieving how he had so easily gained Bloodline Power, and such a powerful one that matched his abilities.
"Can you manifest avatars?" Qin Tian asked.
"I’ll give it a try."
Li Qi activated the deep-seated Bloodline Power, and in the next moment, a burst of black mist erupted within him.
Flap flap
A flock of crows flew out from the black mist, circling in the air.
Qin Tian could easily differentiate which one was Li Qi’s avatar, but others would not find it so simple.
Swoosh~~
The crows dived to the ground, black mist spreading.
Li Qi emerged from the mist, a look of joy on his face.
So powerful.
With the bloodline augmentation, his combat power increased several times, and he mastered several magical abilities.
Li Qi looked at Qin Tian, his eyes filled with reverence and fanaticism.
"Apostle transformation, not bad at all."
Qin Tian slightly raised the corner of his mouth, as Li Qi was now a weaker version of himself, with greatly enhanced physical attributes and perception, while also awakening the Night Demon Wings and Night Demon Avatar abilities.
However, he couldn’t spread the Night Demon’s Blood like a vampire to others.
Qin Tian thought this was a good thing; the reason why everyone called for vampires to be hunted was because this bloodline could spread freely, causing societal chaos.
Currently, only Qin Tian himself could spread the Night Demon’s Blood, the Night Demon Apostles could not.
This way, it would ensure that the Night Demon Bloodline would not expand uncontrollably, stabilizing his control over the Night Demon team.
