Kaiju Maker in Another World

--- Chapter 41 ---

Yu Long stared at the mysterious man and pretty much guessed his identity.

In Blue North County, no one would be brave enough to call Yu Clan's Patriarch by his name. 

So with the recent event, Yu Long concluded this man and other robed figure is his maternal grandfather and grandmother. 

Yu Long also confirmed that his grandfather could use profound skill, meaning he is a profound practitioner. 

Yes, a profound practitioner with a darkness-oriented cultivation art at that.

In the Blue Pole Star, there is one and only darkness-oriented cultivation art called Illusory Devil Tome of Eternal Night. It comes from a long-exterminated faction called the Eternal Night Royal Family.

'Fate is a scary thing.' Yu Long thought while staring at the mysterious grandfather of his.

He only raised a flag once, and this happened.

Xu Sanshan stared at the golden-eyed youth. He frowned as he didn't like his unbound confidence.

'I must humble him, or else something disastrous will happen.' He took a shallow breath and stepped forward.

"Hand of Darkness!" 

Several hands made of darkness appeared again. They moved swiftly and approached Yu Long like a small whirlwind. 

Yu Long used his [Profound Sense] and [Insect King's Vision], observing how his grandfather used the Illusory Devil Tome of Eternal Night.

This profound art's activation pattern is quite similar to [Art of Ghost] but more 'direct' in some parts, which led Yu Long to believe the Devil from the Primordial Era created this out of the bloodline's power.

An idea popped into Yu Long's head as he waved his hand and sent countless claws made of darkness.

Hand of Darkness and Ghost Claws clashed, causing a small storm in the area.

BOOM!

Xu Sanshan retreated a few steps and shouted in disbelief, "H-How did you know the Illusory Devil Tome of Eternal Night?!"

Poor grandpa.

His grandson is a freak.

Yu Long patted the dust from his clothes and replied, "Woah, hold your horse there." 

"This is my self-created profound art." 

"I call it [Art of Ghost]." 

"Also, what the hell is the Illusory Devil Tome of Eternal Night? What a fucking mouthful name." 

"..." Xu Sanshan was on the verge of coughing blood.

What the hell is this brat saying?

Self-created profound art? Like he'd believe his lie!

Also, did he insult the long-passed profound art of the Eternal Night Royal Family?

"You brat, you dare to brag in front of me?" Xu Sanshan calmed himself down.

Yu Long rolled his eyes, "I'm saying the truth here." 

"What do you want me to say? I found a random old beggar in the street, and he gave me this profound art because he found my talent is one in a million people."

"Hmph, that's more believable to me." Xu Sanshan snorted, leaving Yu Long speechless.

"Fucking hell, this world is done for." Yu Long couldn't help but question the logic here. 

"Stop with this useless talk!" Xu Sanshan threw his straw head away.

He revealed the wrinkled face of a middle-aged man with copper tint. His black hair is short, which is very suited to his grand-looking beard.

A pair of purple-colored eyes gazed at Yu Long with deep battle intent.

The ground under Xu Sanshan cracked as immense, profound energy roared from his body. He lifted his hand and created a sword made of darkness.

The sword is jet black, exuding with sharpness.

Yu Long lifted his right index finger, and jet-black wings rose from his shadow, rising to the sky like a menacing cape. 

An image of a ghost-masked creature filled with sharp teeth appeared and released intense bloodlust.

The air whistled, causing banshee-like cries all over the mountaintop.

Yu Long grabbed a random profound beast's bone from his spatial ring and changed it into a rough-looking 1.5-meter spear. The spear's end twirled and gained extreme darkness.

SWOOOSH! BAM!

Their profound energy clashed, and to Xu Sanshan's surprise, he lost to this brat.

'I'm a Throne, but I lost to this brat?' Xu Sanshan's eyes twitched.

"But I won't go down easily." 

Yu Long and Xu Sanshan moved simultaneously, leaving after images a few times.

BAM!

BAM!

BAM!

Xu Sanshan swung his sword, but Yu Long's spear always repelled it away.

Not to mention, Yu Long only used his spear with one hand.

BOOM!

"Night Devil Heaven Burial!" Xu Sanshan focused his profound energy on a single point and stabbed the ground.

A curtain of darkness quickly covered them as gravity shifted. 

Yu Long's lips curved as the ghost-asked image behind him revealed a scythe. He lifted the spear and waved it horizontally.

Tremendous cutting power was 'instantly' unleashed.

SLASH!

The curtain of darkness that Xu Sanshan conjured was 'brutally' slashed in half, but the force didn't end there as the mountaintop's side was shaved clean by it.

That attack could slash everything.

"..." Xu Sanshan froze on the spot. He almost lost his dear life.

Yu Long stabbed the bone spear a few inches from Xu Sanshan's foot and commented, "I think we should stop there, grandfather." 

"I'm afraid you'd have difficulty sleeping later." 

"W-Wait, what did you call me earlier?" Xu Sanshan's body trembled.

"Grandfather? You're my grandfather, no? Xu Sanshan." Yu Long responded casually.

Xu Sanshan's mouth parted as he finally realized Yu Long's facial features resembled his daughter's slightly, especially those narrow eyelashes.

"M-My grandson..." 

"Y-You're Yu Long?" 

"The one and only-!" Before Yu Long could finish his words, Xu Sanshan hugged him like a bear and suddenly cried.

"Ten years. My grandson has become so big in just ten years!" He sobbed like no tomorrow. "He's also strong, oh heaven, you blessed me!" 

Yu Long felt overwhelmed by his hug but could only let it happen. 

"Aih, you should have listened to me before." A sigh echoes on the mountaintop.

A middle-aged woman with white hair flew to them while carrying Yu Zhan.

As she landed, Yu Long could see her facial features.

Xu Nannan looks like Yu Long's mother, but she has a teardrop birthmark on the corner of her lower eyelashes. She's a very charming grandmother from the aura alone.

"Ayaya... Honey, why are you being over the top?" Xu Nannan noticed the destroyed landscape. "What if our grandson got injured?" 

Xu Sanshan was caught between laughter and crying. 

"Hahaha~! If I had to fight Yu Long again, I'm afraid losing my lifespan would be the lightest outcome." He replied in defeat.

He pointed at the cleanly shaved mountaintop, "You see that? Yu Long did that." 

Yu Zhan and Xu Nannan followed his finger and saw an unnatural cut side of the mountaintop. Chills were 'literally' sent down their spines as indescribable shock struck their cores.

"It's just a light spar, nothing special." Yu Long waved his hand as if cutting the mountain was an easy thing to do.

"..." Xu Sanshan.

"..." Xu Nannan.

"..." Yu Zhan.

Xu Sanshan gazed at his son-in-law and coldly asked, "Yu Zhan... Just what the fuck happened in this ten years?" 

"I don't know, I don't know." Yu Zhan shook his head pathetically.

"Yu Long has never shown me his martial prowess, father-in-law." 

"I only know he was a genius kid who could cultivate at an early age." 

A bitter smile plastered over Yu Zhan's handsome face as he finally added, "I only guessed his cultivation realm being True Profound Realm, but as you can see..." 

"It's off the mark."

"Off the mark, your head! He could defeat me, motherfucker!" Xu Sanshan was ready to throw a hand.

Xu Nannan divided them and sighed, "Okay, calm down, you two!" 

"Especially you, honey. Stop bullying our son-in-law." 

"Do you forget that he was the reason Xin'er could live peacefully over fifteen years?" 

"You're safe today..." Xu Sanshan huffed.

Yu Zhan thanked his mother-in-law and glanced at Yu Long.

"I don't know you're this strong..." 

"You've never asked." Yu Long returned immediately.

"..." That's true, Yu Zhan never asked about it.

He's too in line with this world's common sense, thinking Yu Long has a strong teacher on his side but not strong himself.

Last year, he should have connected the dots when those business clans and Cloud Palm Sect suddenly became quiet, retreating from their advance for Yu Clan's wealth.

"You make me doubt myself. At last, my youngest son is still the best." Yu Zhan patted Yu Long's shoulder.

"Hahaha~! Of course, my grandson is the best!" Xu Sanshan laughed in agreement.

Yu Long gave these two shameless men a weird gaze and ignored them as his attention to his grandmother.

"You must have a lot of questions. Well, grandma also." She giggled while pulling his arm. "Let's return to Yu Clan and talk about it." 

"Okay." Yu Long followed his grandmother.
