Chapter 525: There Shall Be No Pain! [2]
"This is…" As the smoke started to disperse, a calm yet slightly enraged voice came from within.
"…truly disappointing!"
Long Xiang could feel his senses screaming at him, telling him something dangerous was coming! But he could not stop the force in his body after launching such a powerful attack.
'A dragon?!' But Long Xiang only heard the shocked voice of the demon in his head before his vision shifted. With his hand in Noah's grasp, he felt his body being lifted into the air before being smashed toward the ground.
"I gave you a month to prepare…" Noah's figure started to emerge from the smoke before it disappeared.
"Haa… here I was thinking about what you would do to get your revenge on me." Long Xiang heard disdain in Noah's voice, but he could not even react to it as his mind was busy comprehending what just happened. "You kill people, but for what? Just to sign a dubious contract with a demon? You couldn't even put a single scratch on my body after using so many attacks.
I don't even have to tell you who the real trash here is."
Boom!
As Long Xiang finally struck the ground, he regained his sense of his surroundings. Everything happened faster than the time it took him to even land his first punch.
Everyone in the arena was left speechless, seeing the person who had been taking a beating in the air was now standing with his feet over his opponent.
"Ughh!! You!!" Long Xiang only snapped out of his daze after he realized Noah had exposed his secrets.
With a burst of energy, he tried to move away from Noah, but his attempt was rendered unsuccessful as Noah pulled him back by his long hair.
"You trash who left his family…"
Boom!
Once more, he was slammed to the ground, "who left the woman who loved him enough to endure the treatment of servants!
Boom!
"Left the son who did not even know what the warmth of a family is!"
Boom!
Noah repeated his actions. Whenever Long Xiang wanted to make distance between them, he would use the sheer power of his body to drag him back to the dirt.
His previous actions of allowing Long Xiang to injure him were for two reasons: one was to test the increase in his power, and the other was to give the man a fake sense of superiority.
As the saying goes, the higher they are, the harder they fall!
"Enough!!!" A demonic voice mixed with Long Xiang's voice engulfed the arena, sending shivers down the spine of those who heard it.
Even those who could not hear the sound were able to tell something was wrong at the sight of the changes in Long Xiang's appearance.
Noah snorted, seeing the demon slowly taking action. "You finally cannot sit still seeing the body you wanted to take over being damaged?"

Long Xiang, whose body was starting to swell, showing signs of his transformation, looked shocked as if it was the first time he had heard such information.
Seeing the look on his face, Noah smirked before walking toward the kneeling Long Xiang. "Looks like you weren't told about this information by the Su family~"
"What is wrong with that kid?"
"Those are the traces of demonic energy!" The head of the four families seemed deeply informed about the dark energy emitting from Long Xiang.
"I want the Su family in custody by the end of this tournament." Wuhan, who had been calmly watching the events of revenge unfurl, commanded the people standing behind him. "Find out everything related to this power and its relation with the Su family. See if any demonic sect is involved."
"Your majesty, are you planning to take action against those from the demonic sect? It might break the balance between the two sides." Knowing what the head of the Kong family was getting at, Wuhan did not answer but instead changed the topic.
"No need to think much about it. Looks like that kid is planning to do something." Just as he had said, Noah on the stage placed his hand on Long Xiang's head.
"I wonder how someone from the dragon family could be in this lower realm!" The demon spoke from within Long Xiang's body, watching the boy coming closer to him.
"No need to buy time; I won't let you harm his soul. After all, I cannot torture his broken soul now, can I?"
"You brat! He has already signed the contract stating if he failed to defeat you with my borrowed power, his body would be mine— What!"
Long Xiang's mind was in a mess when he heard how he was tricked by the demon and the Su family. He knew there was no way they didn't know about this; after all, it was the contract they provided.
"What's happening!!" The scream from the demon soon turned into desperate cries, which attracted Long Xiang's attention.
"As I said, no one can interfere in my revenge, not even demons!" Noah spoke coldly as his hands glowed with a gloomy gray energy enveloping Long Xiang's head.
In the depths of his soul realm, a knot attached to Long Xiang's soul burned away without harming his soul.
"Arghh! How can you harm my true bod—" The screams of the demon faded along with Long Xiang's transformation.
The energy from Long Xiang's body started to dissipate as he went limp on his knees. Even though his mind could not wrap around everything that happened, Long Xiang understood that he would no longer be taken over by the demon.
But before he could even thank his luck to have escaped death, Long Xiang heard a cold and chilling voice that snapped him out of his thoughts.
"You are not thinking that you are saved, are you?" Seeing the look of relief in his eyes, Noah leaned closer to Long Xiang and spoke with a chilling tone. "Do not think for a second that your death would be a painless one."
Seeing the confusion in his eyes, Noah added, "It will be one with despair, helplessness, and regret, so much so that there won't be a shred of place for pain!"
Seeing the look of panic flashing through his eyes, Noah's face gained a delighted grin behind the mask.
"Now then, shall we start? Savor what you are about to experience~ After all, you won't be experiencing anything like this in your life ever again."
