CHAPTER THIRTY-THREE

FEAR ITSELF

Hong Fu had spent most of his long life in positions of relative power and safety. He’d spent his childhood protected by his noble status, which had partially carried over into the sect that he’d joined. His quiet conversion to a demonic cultivator had fueled rapid, if somewhat unstable, growth in his cultivation. That had allowed for swift advancement in the sect. He wasn’t the most powerful elder in his sect, but that was by design. Better by far to allow others to draw the light of attention. He worked in the background. Reliable, indispensable to his peers and those above him, but largely unnoticed by most inside and outside the sect. It was the perfect camouflage for his work of undermining the moral center of the sect an inch at a time. It was the work of centuries, but work that would weaken the heavens by depriving it of righteous men and women. Then, when the time was right, he’d give the sect that one final push that would see it crumble into nothing or fall to demonic cultivation.

The quiet, unassuming life that allowed him to do all those unsavory, unspeakable things required of a demonic cultivator had come crashing down around his head a year ago. Word had spread through the questionable but all-important back channels demonic cultivators maintained that someone had made a list of every demonic cultivator they were aware of. Hong Fu could only assume that the list had been intended as some kind of leverage down the road. A way to extract favors or treasures that would give the holder of the list a better position with the true demons. Hong Fu might have even done the same if he’d thought of it. The list itself wasn’t the problem. The problem was that the fool who wrote it got himself killed, and the list was exposed. Unfortunately, no one had seen the list, which meant that there was no way to know if his name was on it. At first, Hong Fu had focused on tracking down and killing the boy who exposed the list. Some folk hero called Judgment’s Gale. Yet, like the list itself, the boy turned out to be more dangerous than he appeared.

It was believed that he was personally responsible for killing at least two core formation demonic cultivators and an unreasonable number of underlings and hired killers. Worse still, he was traveling with some woman who had proven herself positively lethal. She had slaughtered people by the score, yet no one seemed to know who she was. Even that wasn’t the worst of it. At first, there were just rumors, but those rumors had slowly evolved into a set of facts that made Hong Fu’s blood run cold. That boy, the ridiculous foundation formation child who could somehow kill core formation demonic cultivators, had gotten the list to Fate’s Razor. That old monster had shared the list with The Living Spear, and the two of them had gone on a killing spree the likes of which the continent hadn’t experienced in centuries.
