Chương 68: Chapter 68

A month passed quickly. And at this moment, Itachi was teaching some classes to the new disciples of the sect. At first, all the girls were surprised that a man was part of the sect, but seeing that the man was Itachi, who is exceptionally handsome and powerful, they soon got used to it.

His lessons were mainly about some battle techniques and skills that he had learned in the shinobi world, which could also be helpful in this world. He also told the female disciples not to rush cultivation and to build a base before climbing higher.

All the girls seemed to pay extreme attention to Itachi's words, especially some girls.

Xia Qingyue was among those disciples who paid extreme attention to Itachi's speech. Since arriving in the sect, she had not had much time to talk to him, which distressed her.

After finding out that Itachi gave a few lectures a month, she decided always to attend the classes. First, she thought it might be useful, helpful figure cultivation, and second, she wanted to see Itachi, even if only from afar.

She felt that Itachi's distance from her was too great, preventing her from talking casually with him.

Itachi, who was giving his monthly lecture, suddenly became quiet and turned his face towards the north.

All the female disciples in the lecture noticed this abnormality, so they just waited for Itachi to return to continue his explanation about cultivation.

"I apologize, but the lecture will adjourn for today."

With that said, Itachi disappeared from his room and reappeared again outside the sect. He did this because the Device he gave Yun Che seemed to have been broken, which meant it was time for him to keep his word on his agreement with the boy.

"Very well..."

With these thoughts, Itachi disappeared from the sect as he flew toward where Yun Che had broken his device.

It only took Itachi a few minutes to arrive at the location where Yun Che was, thanks to his cultivation that seemed to have seen substantial improvements in the past month.

I arrived at the location where Yun Che was. Itachi chose not to reveal himself initially. First, he would like to see what was going on, and only then would he act on the conclusions he had drawn.

Looking at the surroundings, he noticed that Yun Che seemed to be being chased and injured but not to the point that he couldn't run away. Yun Che's pursuer seemed to be in the Earth Profound Realm, which was too much for Yun Che to handle at the moment.

"So he wants me to help him with this expert?" Itachi thought.

He would have no problem dealing with a mere cultivator from the Earth Profound Realm. Itachi had already prepared to quickly deal with this cultivator who was chasing Yun Che so that he could return to the sect, but Yun Che's shout made him stop in his tracks.

"Master, save me!"

His shout made Itachi stop in his tracks and turn back to watch what would happen.

Itachi had sensed no one other than Yun Che and his pursuer, but seeing Yun Che calling for a master, he refocused on detecting other people in the surroundings but had no success.

"Could it be a bluff? Or maybe he sensed me and wants to cause fear in his pursuer?" Itachi thought quietly.

He also thought about the possibility that Yun Che had encountered some master in the Sovereign Profound Realm, but if that were the case, Itachi could detect him no matter how much he tried to hide.

Jasmine was curious to see what the boy possessing Heaven's Poison Pearl was up to.

They didn't have to wait for long because Yun Che's pursuer finally caught up to him, but before he could move toward him, a dark aura came out of Yun Che's ring finger.

And that dark aura did not escape the watchful eyes of Itachi, who noticed a black ring on Yun Che's fingers.

"That..." Jasmine muttered.

Itachi heard Jasmine's murmuring and knew that she must have some knowledge about this ring. His curiosity about the ring increased even more, when he saw that the dark aura began to envelop Yun Che, to the point where his body was no longer visible.

His pursuer, who seemed to notice the abnormality in his target, thought of backing away for the moment, but just as he was about to do so, he found himself being attacked by something dark and extremely sharp. And before he could think to dodge the attack, his head was ripped off in a clean cut.

Even Itachi was surprised by this attack from Yun Che. He was sure that if he received this blow head-on, his Profound Tyrant Realm cultivation would not be enough to escape without some injuries.

"What is this ring?" Itachi thought.

Jasmine, who seemed to have come out of her stupor, started to tell Itachi what this ring was.

"This ring belongs to the devil race... I never expected such a ring to be on this small planet. According to my knowledge, this devil race had already been extinct a few thousand years ago, so what we are seeing must be the remnants of the soul of a real devil, and it seems that this devil has this boy as a disciple. Or rather, he has this boy as a vessel to receive his soul in the future." Jasmine calmly said every word.

Itachi was surprised by what Jasmine told him.

First, because a race managed to get attention from Jasmine, who seemed to consider everyone inferior to her, second, Yun Che appeared to be used as a vessel to receive the Devil's soul.

"So this boy will soon be possessed by a devil? That doesn't sound good." Itachi commented calmly.

He remembered that in the shinobi world, something similar had happened to his younger brother, and in the end, Sasuke almost had his body taken over by Orochimaru. And if not for Itachi, then his brother might have lost his body to Orochimaru.

"It looks like he can't keep this form for long." Itachi said as he looked at the black aura receding from Yun Che's body.

He realized that Yun Che's cultivation seemed to have decreased by a whole level.

"So the devil is slowly devouring the boy..."

Seeing that Yun Che had not lost consciousness, Itachi decided to reveal himself finally. He knew that Yun Che would not call him to deal with a cultivator of the Earth Profound Realm.

"So, what do you want?"

His voice and appearance made Yun Che leap backward as he faced Itachi. He never expected Itachi to arrive so quickly after he broke his device.

Yun Che didn't know when Itachi had arrived. Still, from the expression on Itachi's face, he deduced that he must have just come, which relieved him a little because he knew that he would have to explain many things if Itachi saw the scene of him killing a Profound Earth Realm cultivator.

Poor Yun Che didn't know that Itachi not only saw him killing the cultivator but also discovered that the ring on his finger belonged to the devil race.
