The crowd couldn’t help but exclaim, "That’s the Shadow Demon."
At this mont, the burly man cupped his hands towards Long Batian and said, "Hall Master, the people from the Blood God Sect are just up ahead."
Long Batian nodded upon hearing this and said, "Thank you, Elder Ying. Who did the Blood God Sect send this ti?"
Elder Ying replied solemnly, "There are ten people from the Blood God Sect this ti. Besides nine Hall Masters, the Sect Leader Zhang Jue Ming also ca."
Long Batian’s expression changed abruptly upon hearing this, and an uncontrollable murderous aura erupted from within him.
"Damn it, aren’t those children in danger?" Long Batian shouted angrily.
"Hall Master, we can’t let them escape this ti."
"Hmm, let’s catch up first. Rescuing those children is the priority."
Minutes later, a dragon’s roar echoed in the sky.
"Sect Leader, Long Batian has caught up."
Zhang Jue Ming’s face imdiately darkened upon hearing this.
"How did they catch up so quickly? It seems soone exposed our whereabouts." With that, his gaze fell on Zhao Qianshan.
Zhao Qianshan trembled violently at the sight, speaking in terror, "Please, Sect Leader, discern the truth. I sincerely pledged allegiance to you."
Zhang Jue Ming remained unmoved upon hearing this.
Zhao Qianshan beca anxious; without the other’s trust, he was surely dood.
Zhao Qianshan thought quickly and imdiately said to Zhang Jue Ming, "Right, there’s this guy nad Chu Chen. He’s a disciple taken in by Long Batian. Maybe he has so mark left by the other side."
Zhang Jue Ming instantly laughed upon hearing this, patting Zhao Qianshan’s shoulder and saying, "Don’t worry, I never said it’s you. But what you said makes sense. Perhaps those geniuses have been marked."
"Sect Leader, what should we do next?" Leng Yiyun asked solemnly.
"Long Batian’s power surpasses mine. If he catches up, we might all be finished here. But with these hostages in our hands, he wouldn’t dare do anything to us." Zhang Jue Ming said indifferently.
"Sect Leader, you mustn’t underestimate. I’ve been in the Daoist School for many years, and I know Long Batian well. He is not one to be indecisive. If he has to trade these geniuses’ lives for ours, he wouldn’t hesitate." Zhao Qianshan stated solemnly.
The crowd’s faces turned grave upon hearing this.
"Damn, what should we do then? If he won’t spare us, we’ll just have these geniuses accompany us to the grave."
"No, doing that will completely enrage him. He will surely fight us to the death."
"Then what should we do? We can’t just sit and wait to die."
At this mont, Leng Yiyun spoke solemnly, "Things aren’t as bad as you think."
Zhang Jue Ming asked solemnly, "What’s your idea?"
"Since he’s faster than us, we need to find a way to slow him down."
"Explain in detail."
"I can throw these geniuses down one by one. I don’t believe he would watch them die."
Zhang Jue Ming burst into laughter upon hearing this, "Not bad, that’s a good idea."
"Isn’t this too easy on them? We’ve been guarding here for a long ti."
Zhang Jue Ming replied with a sneer, "That’s simple. Though I can’t kill them, severely injuring them is no problem."
"Haha, the Sect Leader is wise. Leave this matter to ."
"Hall Master Zhao, bring Long Batian’s disciple over here. I want to send Long Batian a big gift." Zhang Jue Ming said with a smile.
Zhao Qianshan imdiately brought over Chu Chen upon hearing this.
"Sect Leader, what do you plan to do?"
"Doesn’t Long Batian hate our Blood God Sect? Then I’ll turn his disciple’s Guardian Beast into a Blood Beast."
"That’s a good idea. However, the other side can simply choose to terminate the contract,"
"Hah, it’s not that easy. Now is a golden ti for cultivation. Terminating the contract would make him waste ti on recovery, and raising a new Guardian Beast would take longer. By the ti he resus cultivation, his peers would have left him far behind. Seeing such a disciple, Long Batian might feel quite bitter."
The crowd laughed upon hearing this, showering complints.
"Haha, wake this little guy up and have him summon his most powerful Guardian Beast." Zhang Jue Ming laughed.
Zhao Qianshan imdiately approached Chu Chen and slapped him a few tis.
Chu Chen felt a sharp pain on his cheeks as he confusedly opened his eyes to see Zhao Qianshan’s sinister old face.
At that mont, he imdiately realized that Zhao Qianshan was the Blood God Sect’s spy. Instinctively, he wanted to back away, but found he was completely immobile, his limbs bound by special ropes.
Zhao Qianshan saw Chu Chen awake and sneered, "Little guy, summon your Thunder Ape."
Chu Chen didn’t answer but looked behind him, seeing ten n in black robes eyeing him maliciously.
"What do you want?" Chu Chen asked coldly.
Zhao Qianshan replied coldly, "Consider yourself lucky; the Sect Leader is giving you a fortuitous encounter."
Chu Chen sneered, "Do you think I’m a three-year-old child? You would be so kind?"
Zhao Qianshan replied in a sinister tone, "Kid, do you think you have a choice?"
"Hmph, at worst, just death."
"Haha, it’s easy for you to die, but what about your parents?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Chen was instantly enraged. His parents were his reverse scale, and the other side threatened their lives, clearly hitting his weak spot.
"How dare you."
"Humph, what’s there to fear? We are the Blood God Sect, and even the Alliance can’t do anything to us."
Chu Chen’s rage intensified upon hearing this.
Seeing the other unmoved, Zhao Qianshan beca furious. Having just joined the Blood God Sect, it would hugely benefit his future prospects to leave a good impression on the Sect Leader.
He reached out, grabbed Chu Chen by the throat, and said coldly, "Do as I say, or I’ll kill you, and make your parents join you."
Chu Chen’s eyes turned crimson with anger, but given the circumstances, he had no choice but to comply.
Lei Yao was summoned, and upon seeing Chu Chen’s state, it roared at Zhao Qianshan, activating all its abilities at once.
Watching Lei Yao’s aura surge, Zhao Qianshan and the others were taken aback.
"Not bad, this Thunder Ape is mighty. What a sha it’s not for to use. The stronger it is, the better. Once it’s turned into a Blood Beast, its power will increase, making you even more reluctant to terminate the contract."
Chu Chen followed the sound and saw the speaker was an elderly man with a shriveled face.
Zhao Qianshan noticed this and said coldly, "What are you looking at? The appearance of the Sect Leader isn’t for your eyes." With that, he slapped Chu Chen’s cheek again.
Chu Chen coldly stared at Zhao Qianshan and asked, "You old dog, the Daoist School treated you well, so why beco a spy for the Blood God Sect."
This seed to sting Zhao Qianshan, who slapped him again before shouting, "They treated well? What a joke. I risked my life in the Fifth-Level Secret Realm for the Daoist School. I was lucky to get the Key but was severely injured, and even my Main Pet died. What did I get in return?"
"Didn’t you beco an Elder and even contracted a Guardian Beast with the Cyan Dragon Bloodline, isn’t that enough?"
"Hah, I beca an Elder, but the lowest ranking one. Because my foundation was damaged, I couldn’t break through to Emperor Level, and the other Elders didn’t take seriously. The dirty and tiring tasks in the Daoist School were always left to ."
"Is that the reason you beca a spy?" Chu Chen asked coldly.
"Hah, you’re quite smart. Those things didn’t matter to much. But I want to be stronger. King Level isn’t my endpoint. I’ve amassed a large amount of Cultivation Resources using my authority. Once my Guardian Beast becos a Blood Beast, I can use those resources to break through. The King Level isn’t my end destination."
Before Chu Chen could question further, Zhang Jue Ming clapped his hands and said, "Quite impressive. It seems Hall Master Leng was able to blackmail you because you’re nothing more than a tool to join the Blood God Sect."
Leng Yiyun’s face turned grim upon realizing that she was just a tool for Zhao Qianshan to join the Blood God Sect.
"Please forgive , Sect Leader. I’ve committed a grave offense," she said.
Zhang Jue Ming laughed coldly, "No need for forgiveness. We are the Blood God Sect, we don’t have many rules, as long as the goal is achieved, the process doesn’t matter."
Zhao Qianshan laughed upon hearing this, realizing his own crafty mind impressed Zhang Jue Ming. By doing so, he aid to secure greater favor from him in the future.
