Turning the Tables

Jiang Chen sighed softly. “Elder Yuan Chi.” His voice was so low that he seemed to be talking to himself. “Do you really think righteousness can overcome all evil?”

The elder blinked. “Of course,” he remarked offhandedly. “Heaven and earth distinguish right from wrong. Evil never triumphs. Why wouldn’t the former triumph over the latter?”

The young man nodded. “I suppose you’re right. Why then, do evildoers come like moths to a flame?”

Elder Yuan Chi blinked. It felt like something was in his throat. “Young lord,” he choked out. “Are you talking about those evil spirits attacking the nodes?”

“Those evil spirits are only demonic puppets.” Jiang Chen exhaled. “They are not the evildoers I am talking about. Actual demons, Elder Yuan Chi… but shouldn’t you know that better than me?”

The elder’s entire body shook. His body was paralyzed by utter fear, a feeling that also showed in his eyes.

A single thought filled his mind. He had been found out!

This wasn’t good!

He wanted to spring into an attack, but his reflexes were too slow.

When his body finally reacted, a golden bell had already appeared at his back. It slammed down upon him, enveloping him squarely within.

Yuan Chi felt the weight of several mountains bear down upon him. He was entirely immobile no matter how much he struggled.

“What crime have I committed, young lord Jiang Chen, that you should treat me thus?” he shouted.

“What crime have you committed? Is there any need to ask? You were the one who told me that my righteousness would triumph over evil. Why weren’t you on alert then?” Jiang Chen’s tone was cool. “I don’t care who you are, but I do have to thank you for bringing your comrades. I’m going to go play with them for a bit.”

Elder Yuan Chi – or rather, Jadeface—felt his heart sink. This was very bad indeed. His shadow demon allies had infiltrated nearly to where the node was located.

But Jiang Chen had been clearly aware of their actions from the start. It could be said that they had walked into a trap. How laughable their previous confidence in victory had been! They had thought the leader of humanity a fool.

It was more than clear by now that they were the fools.

Anxious and frantic, Jadeface desperately wanted to contact his allies, but the golden bell upon him prevented him from moving at all.

It was at this time that Jiang Chen leapt into the sky, tossing something aloft. The heavens were illuminated with virtuous brilliance, spreading a blinding radiance into every corner down beneath. It was the Great Veluriyam Torch!

Its light revealed all evil within its range of influence.

Under the light of the torch, Serratewind and the others were forced to appear in their true forms.

The sacred beasts appeared from thin air, locking down the space in every direction. Xia Tianze didn’t even have to involve himself; Serratewind and the other demons were already cornered rats.

Serratewind instantly noticed the problem when the Great Veluriyam Torch’s light appeared. “Not good,” he yelped.
