Later the full body of the man strolled out with his hands behind his back and his eyes closed as he flew down the stairs and landed on the ground.
"This kind of heat, the annual light array I placed her doesn't have such heat. or is there something wrong with it." The voice of this grey skinned man was kind of panicky, then his eyes opened.
Behold, on the ground wasn't the expected color of light. It was supposed to be green, the color of sun penetrating through translucent leaves.
But, why was there glow that was with color of the sunlight and even radiated such heat.
"Someone came to mess with my array!" He let out furiously.
His head fell backward as he looked upward at the branches of the tree which was very tall.
"Flames? wait, how the heck did the tree get engulfed in fire? fuck! fuck! the offerings? such flames might have sent off the villagers who came to worship my creation and offer gifts."
The grey skinned man waved his hands and the array formation he have hidden under the ground was reviewed with no form of changes on them.
The spirit stones, the spell papers and every other thing was still in the right places in such a way that it would be hard to believe that even an ant has messed with it.
Then, he was so enraged and decided to check if there were villagers here witnessing such thing happening, witnessing his creation getting burnt to the ground.
"I'm going to kill whosoever did this if I catch that person. fuck! fuck! fuck! Ah, damnit, I've lost it here, my harvest of materials and ingredients is gone because of this!"
Grey skinned flew and landed at the front of the lion legacy tree he have built and nurtured for ages, even before the birth of this generation of villagers.
The moment he got there, his vision was welcomed with the sight of furiously burning flames, inside the perimeter of the flames was hundreds of corpses.
He even witnessed from where he was, a young human girl getting tossed into the flames by a flame.
'Wait, a flame, that can't be a flame, that's a human flame... no a demon flame, no a demon.. wait fuck, no matter who this person is, he's the one that have massacred the villagers and ruined this year's harvest.'
Killing intent was released from his eyes.
It was at that moment that devil of divine flame informed Liam of the arrival of a threat.
Liam still with his hands clenching the demon eyes stood up, flapped his wings and flew above the height of the flame walls.
'I've to risk this.'
Liam removed his hands from his demon eye and looked at the direction of the lion legacy tree that's few moments away from burning to the ground.
There he saw a being, hovering in the air without a wing on his back.
He tried looking deeper to know the power level of this person but that was impossible.
'Stronger than Radiant hearts.' Liam and devil of divine flame shared the same thought at that moment.
Killing these people was something that will leave no regrets in Liam, even the slightest.
Infact, the only thing he feels right now is bliss.
The kind felt after you finished eating food that you have missed for such a long time and that food happens to be one of your favorite.
Nevertheless, in his case it was the same as one tasting and eating a new type of food for the first time and that food is now one of your favourites.
Most persons will feel guilty, ending the life of a girl as young as the one he just thrashed into the flames, but Liam felt nothing.
This feeling is not because of the Bloodline soul merging with him and sharing the same mental sphere during the moment of their bond but this feeling is one that Liam has been cultivating in his mind since then.
The heart of killing without feeling remorse, the heart of going against the heavens. angering them in such a way that they will come down to him after a long time of struggling to bear the killing of their creations.
Well, after putting an end to the ritual and burning the lion legacy tree and killing the villagers — an enemy have showed up, a strong one at that.
Liam shut his left eye and gazed at the old grey skinned man that was hovering in the air and he have reached a height taller than the flame walls he have created.
"Such weak being dares to stop my harvest! do you think you'll live again?" The foe that arrived spoke in a tone loud enough and carrying such magnifying force that quenched one part of the flame wall.
Liam was in the air as well, as he watched his foe that has arrived with furrowed eyes and anger filled face that red... "Why the fuck did you decide to show yoir ugly head at this moment."
Nevertheless, Liam answered with a tone that was supposed to be polite but because of his strong huge to kill, it sounded more like he was provoking his enemy.
"Sorry, I did not know that this was your harvest ground and I made quite a mess."
That was what he said, and this caused the enemy to frown even more.
"You should have checked, now you have killed my worshippers and damaged my creation, as If that wasn't enough of a provocation you went as far as destroying the offering. if it was you, would you have forgiven?"
"Depending on what was offered. I don't know what these corpse offered but it must have been something unimportant and the damn tree being they were worshipping didn't even fight to save the from me, is that how it supposed to behave, letting the people who sacrificed their time and effort to come worship and give offerings but yet still remain unprotected even as they lay on the ground as corpse."
This time, Liam was really provoked in his stead and also in the stead of the people that he killed.
That little girl he killed should have been alive by now, probably being chased by some horny geezers or being fucked by them or something else that is irrelevant or relevant.
Yet, she died in his hands in the most painful way one that a Villain will not pray it should happen to the hero.
But here stood the geezer who have wasted their life for nothing, only bothering about the offering that he have lost.
Such selfishness! he's sure that the souls of the villagers would be somewhere cursing by now.
"Wait, do you think they worship my creation and indirectly me for nothing? I'm sure that's what someone as evil as you will be thinking. but don't forget, I protected them from dangers and helped them to make their crops grow, spending my splendid time that should have passed by learning how to forge good pills and craft new weapons." Gray skin said with an enraged voice.
"Oh, you water the crops and do other stuffs for them? great? but you're a traitor."
"How!"
"You don't know how, then let me explain. you said you protect them, do stuffs like this and stuff like that and in the end you take their offering as your payment, isn't that what you mean?"
"Of course, how else do you want me to put it?"
"Then, just now when I killed them and ate their hearts and their power cores, killing them in the most painful way that exist. where were you. where was the fucking protection you gave to them.
"Oh, I guess you were asleep back then, now they are dead. Wake them up! you're just like those damn nobles and kings, setting rules to raise your reputation and wealth while the neglecting the people...."
Liam is someone that appreciated killing and he wouldn't waste time to kill someone he has feeling for if that someone has something that goes against his plan.
Such attitude is expected from a cultivator who really want to sever all ties with failure and reach the peak of cultivation after that.
Nevertheless, Liam have lived a life before one that he was constantly punished and disregarded by the law of humans.
After dying, he vowed to always go against heavens.
Since it was a world to gain powers, his prayers was answered but by who? is it the devil? no! Liam guessed that it was just fate playing one of it's numerous tricks.
The grey skinned man whom Liam have decided to call Grey, was someone that did something that resembles the way of a god.
Gaining followers who will give up their lives to complete their every command and practice all the principles but at the end, Their life was on the line and the "god" didn't even do anything or cared about them dying but only cares about the offerings they won't be offering anymore.
There are many continents and kingdoms.
Worst to worst, Gray can create another stuff and endow it with godly power that will fool mortals to worshipping them and giving offerings and this was irritating, considering that Liam has once passed through this.
