Yama Reborn-Chapter 489 - 486 [This is a Conspiracy Against Me!]
Chapter 486: This Is a Conspiracy Against Me!
Chen Nuo didn’t hesitate. He rapidly left the manor, releasing layers of spiritual power, and sped towards the location over the sea where the two were chasing and battling each other.
The opportunity has arrived!
He had originally coaxed the Son of the Sun to join him in a united front against this Yun Yin. Now that he had encountered them, what a perfect chance!
Amidst his rapid flight, Chen Nuo crossed the northwestern suburbs of London in an instant and headed towards the West Coast.
A few minutes later, Chen Nuo suddenly came to an abrupt halt in mid-air.
Sensing the distant chase and battle with his spiritual power, Chen Nuo’s expression suddenly turned very strange.
「 」
Above the sea, two figures sped across the water one after the other. Their immense strength parted the water, causing waves to tumble.
Yun Yin was in the lead. After speeding for a moment, she suddenly stopped, turned around fiercely, a murderous glint in her eyes, and coldly stared at the furiously approaching Son of the Sun.
"If one beating wasn’t enough, then take another!"
The Son of the Sun roared, "Motherf... FUCK!!!!!!"
Right in front of him, as Yun Yin raised a hand, a giant wave surged skyward from the sea surface.
The water curtain, rising over ten meters high, crashed down like a wall. It flattened the Son of the Sun, who was floating on the water, as if he were a fly being swatted into the sea.
Before the old man could struggle out of the water, he saw Yun Yin dive in. Her body split the waves, shooting through the water like a sharp sword.
The Son of the Sun watched in shock as his opponent parted the water and darted right in front of him. Yun Yin even somersaulted in the water to reverse her direction and kicked his belly with the tips of her toes.
The old man was kicked so hard that his guts felt nearly severed, and his body was propelled even deeper into the sea.
Yun Yin’s speed in the water was astonishingly fast.
It was as if the dense seawater offered no resistance to her movements at all; in fact, her speed underwater was even faster than it was in the air above the shore!
The Son of the Sun, noticeably slower to react in the water, thrashed about as Yun Yin circled him. Occasionally, she darted in like a lightning-fast fish to deliver a punch or a kick, then swiftly swam away.
Caught off guard, the Son of the Sun suffered five or six harsh blows, which ignited his fury.
The old man’s eyes bulged. Suddenly, he burst forth with the brilliant flames of the fierce sun. As Yun Yin made another approach, the old man, his face contorted with anger, sent a blazing solar flame sweeping towards her.
Yun Yin immediately withdrew, no longer engaging, and shot towards the water’s surface at high speed.
When the Son of the Sun finally broke the surface in pursuit, Yun Yin was already standing ten meters up in mid-air. With drooping eyelids, she coldly sneered at him, "Had enough of a beating? If you have, then stop chasing me!"
The flames around the Son of the Sun blazed fiercely, seawater evaporating off him in steam. His whole body seemed to be smoking, and he looked quite bedraggled.
Just as the old man, eyes wide, was about to retort, he heard a mocking laugh from not far behind him.
"Hey, old guy, I’m really starting to doubt something now."
The Son of the Sun turned his head and saw Chen Nuo’s figure a few meters behind him, also hovering above the water, looking at him with a peculiar smile.
"You’re here?" the Son of the Sun snapped. "Fuck! What are you doubting?"
Chen Nuo dropped his smile and said seriously, "I genuinely suspect you might be the weakest of all Controllers."
The Son of the Sun fell silent, but his glare at Chen Nuo said it all.
"Seriously. You’re experienced, a legend... but from what I’ve seen, every time you fight, you’re the one who ends up worst off. It seems that against opponents below the Controller level, you can dominate—you are a Controller, after all. But it seems that whenever you face an opponent of the same level and realm as yourself, you’ve never won once! Hey, old guy, what’s the deal with you?"
The Son of the Sun couldn’t stand it anymore!
The old man opened his mouth, and a string of curses laced with the F-word burst forth.
Chen Nuo, grinning, paid no mind. Instead, he flew over, grabbed the Son of the Sun by the shoulder, and lifted him out of the water.
The old man gritted his teeth. "She ambushed me just now! Besides, my powers are naturally inhibited in water, and that little girl is skilled at water control. I was caught off guard and took a few hits, that’s all."
Chen Nuo nodded. "Yes, yes, caught off guard!"
"It’s true!!"
"Mm, I believe you!"
"But your tone says you doubt me!"
"My tone is perfectly sincere," Chen Nuo said, patting the Son of the Sun on the shoulder.
The old man took a deep breath, about to curse again, when Chen Nuo chuckled. "Alright, enough nonsense. Look, this woman is the one I told you about, the one you were going to help me deal with."
The Son of the Sun raised an eyebrow. "Her?!"
"Yes, her!"
"Good!" the old man huffed, his voice fierce. "Very good! This has gone beyond our deal! Now it’s personal!"
Chen Nuo nodded, also watching Yun Yin from a distance. "Alright then. Make sure you give it your all later and don’t slack off!"
"If I don’t beat her to a pulp, I’ll..."
While the Son of the Sun was swearing and cursing, Yun Yin, in the distance, just looked coldly at Chen Nuo. "It’s you again."
"Ah..." Chen Nuo sighed. "It is."
"You’ve been searching for me these past few days."
"Yes." Chen Nuo thought for a moment. "I don’t want to fight either, but there are some things I must clarify with you."
"I told you, if you bother me again, I’ll kill you."
Chen Nuo pouted. "Well... perhaps I’m not that easy to kill."
"Then let’s try."
"Try and you’ll d— Hey!!" Chen Nuo was mid-sentence when his tone suddenly changed.
After Yun Yin finished her stern warning, her figure swiftly retreated, gliding dozens of meters before vanishing on the spot!
Teleportation again! Spatial movement!
Chen Nuo leaped up in pursuit. Upon reaching the spot where Yun Yin had disappeared, he quickly closed his eyes to sense the spatial fluctuations...
Then, Chen Nuo also vanished in an instant.
Before disappearing, Chen Nuo turned his head to the still-stunned Son of the Sun and barked, "Old man! Hurry and catch up!"
The Son of the Sun was left staring blankly.
Gone? Both gone? What kind of ability was this? Spatial? Teleportation? WHAT THE FUCK!!!!!
He was dumbfounded.
"Catch up? How the hell am I supposed to do that?! I don’t have that kind of Spatial Ability!"
Wait a minute! That little bitch and this little scumbag... Are these two really Controllers?!
「 」
Atop the church bell tower!
Under the cover of night, Yun Yin’s silhouette abruptly appeared. Instantly, a fist materialized out of thin air, striking right before her eyes.
Yun Yin crossed her hands to block, but her body was sent flying backward like an arrow.
Like a sword, her figure shot out, smashing right through the large bell in the Tower of London. With a loud BOOM, the bell resonated, and Yun Yin’s figure vanished again.
Chen Nuo immediately disappeared without a trace as well.
In the skies above London, two figures flickered in and out of existence—one moment in the East End, the next by the Thames River, then flashing atop the Tower of London.
Chen Nuo abandoned all long-range attacks, relentlessly sticking to Yun Yin using his teleportation ability. He launched a ferocious, storm-like assault with close-quarters combat techniques.
As expected, Yun Yin was at a disadvantage. After several failed attempts to teleport and create distance, she was clearly infuriated. She abandoned her attempts to widen the gap and stopped using her Spatial Ability. The two then began brawling in the skies above London.
This time, Chen Nuo didn’t go easy on her because she was a woman—he didn’t dare to!
With their power levels so close and engaged in hand-to-hand combat, if he dared to hold back, he knew Yun Yin could blast him into smithereens.
Even so, while Chen Nuo was largely dominating the fight, both sustained injuries.
Chen Nuo shattered Yun Yin’s left scapula with a palm strike.
Yun Yin broke one of Chen Nuo’s shinbones with a kick.
Chen Nuo landed a punch that broke one of Yun Yin’s ribs.
Yun Yin, in turn, slapped Chen Nuo across the face, causing him to spit out a tooth.
After more than a dozen swift exchanges, they both retreated a few steps simultaneously. Within two breaths, the Controllers’ powerful ability to manipulate their own bodies ensured their external injuries had mostly healed.
Yun Yin glared at Chen Nuo resentfully.
This round of mutual damage had significantly cooled Yun Yin’s anger. Now calmer, she immediately made a judgment:
This way of fighting won’t work! My opponent’s close combat skills are superior to mine! Although it’s an exchange of injuries, I’m clearly taking more damage. And in terms of raw power, my opponent is a notch above me. This also means that as Controllers, his ability to control his body’s self-healing, and the speed of it, is slightly better than mine. I’m sustaining heavier injuries, and he’s healing faster. If this continues, I can hold on for a short while, but over time, I’ll grow weaker, and his advantage will become increasingly obvious!
Upon realizing this, Yun Yin once again flew backward at high speed, trying to forcefully create distance.
After discovering that she couldn’t shake Chen Nuo using her Spatial Ability, Yun Yin changed her strategy. She simply flew off, attempting to outpace Chen Nuo with her flight speed.
Chen Nuo shook his head and quickly pursued.
「 」
In London City, a young white man, heavily injured with a bruised nose and swollen face, stood by the roadside. He had a complex expression as he looked towards the night sky.
The faint booming sounds from high above might have led an ordinary person to believe a thunderstorm was brewing.
But for the young Wizard, though not a Controller himself, as an outstanding practitioner of the Mentality Series, he had already clearly discerned that those were two supreme Controllers locked in a duel!
Controllers!! When this term surfaced in his mind, a sudden brilliance burst forth in the young Wizard’s eyes. This was what he had long sought!
Finally, gritting his teeth, the Wizard broke into a run.
「 」
Chen Nuo rapidly caught up with Yun Yin. They fought and chased, rising and falling several times, before Chen Nuo immediately understood Yun Yin’s intentions.
She sees she can’t shake me off, so she’s trying to lead me towards the sea! She clearly has an advantage where there’s water.
Realizing her plan, Chen Nuo naturally intended to sabotage it.
During several pursuits, Chen Nuo deliberately forced her to fly in the direction opposite the coastline.
After a few more chases, they had almost circled London again. Finally, Yun Yin stopped running, her teeth clenched in frustration.
"You!"
"Actually, we don’t have to fight," Chen Nuo said. "We could sit down for a coffee and have a good chat. Wouldn’t that be much better than hurting each other like this?"
"I just want to kill you!"
"That’s what you said at sea too, but then you turned and ran."
"Humph! You have two powerhouses, and I’m alone. Am I supposed to fight two against one? I’m not that foolish."
Chen Nuo fell silent for a moment, then suddenly looked up, a smile playing on his lips as he gazed at her. He spoke slowly, "Honestly... Can we talk? Yun Yin!"
Yun Yin’s expression changed instantly.
In that brief moment of her surprise, Chen Nuo closed in rapidly and launched his second wave of psychological attacks with his words.
"Not only do I know your name, I also know Yun He!"
"The current Sect Leader of the Qingyun Sect is my Senior Martial Brother!"
"I’ve even mastered the Sword of Killing Intent!"
"Oh, by the way, one last thing..."
BAM!
Yun Yin barely fended off Chen Nuo’s palm strike, struggling to suppress the turmoil his words had stirred in her mind. "What thing?"
Chen Nuo spoke with a smile. Under Yun Yin’s wide-eyed expression of fury and bafflement, he braced himself for a punch that struck his ribs. He then shifted his body to the side, allowing her arm to slide under his armpit before clamping down on it with his own arm.
Just like that, he trapped Yun Yin’s right hand. His own right hand had swiftly wrapped under Yun Yin’s left ribcage to press against her back, pulling her forcefully towards him.
In this strange posture, the two were pressed tightly together. From a distance, it looked like a passionate embrace.
Yun Yin’s expression was icy cold. She struggled furiously several times. Chen Nuo, gritting his teeth, resisted desperately. His body creaked and groaned under the strain of her strength, yet he held onto Yun Yin tightly.
"What is the last thing!" Yun Yin gritted out.
Chen Nuo laughed heartily. "The last thing... I’m your husband!"
The words hung in the air.
"I’m your husband!"
Just as the Son of the Sun, hurtling through the sky like a shooting star, arrived on the scene, that was what he heard.
It wasn’t that the old man wasn’t trying his best, but he couldn’t teleport using Spatial Abilities! And with these two fighting and chasing each other so unpredictably, the Son of the Sun could only trail behind them. It was truly remarkable that he had managed to catch up at all.
But as the Son of the Sun finally arrived, the scene that met his eyes...
Mid-air, under the starry night sky...
This shameless couple, embracing so tightly?!
And then, he had heard that line.
"...I’m your husband!!"
You motherfucking little twerp!!!
Hearing these words, the old man nearly saw stars and almost spat blood on the spot.
You’re a fucking couple!!!!! Then why did you ask me to help you beat up this woman?! Huh? That’s not right! If these two are a couple... then are we—this old man and this kid—still going to team up to beat this woman? Or could it be... could it be that this damned couple will gang up on me, two against one, and beat up old me? HOLY SHIT!! I’ve been conned!! This is a conspiracy against me, the great Son of the Sun!!!
