Chapter 1219: Chapter 1220: I Could Tell at a Glance That You’re a Fake Chapter 1219: Chapter 1220: I Could Tell at a Glance That You’re a Fake “Just that?”
“At the very least, you should reattach his severed arm for him. That look is really terrifying and undermines the reputation of our Blood Demon Sect.”
“This is no ordinary Joe; in the Earth Spirit Realm, he was indeed considered an Overlord, and he once followed Li Xiaobai for a while, with a broad knowledge of him. It’s a pity that his talents are limited. Despite having the heart of a mighty warrior, his destiny is to be forever separate from the world of such warriors.”
“Why doesn’t Bald Elder directly ask him if there’s an issue?”
It was unclear whether it was intentional or not, but Xueshenzi kept steering the conversation between the two before him, eager to confirm that these two individuals weren’t acting like fools in front of him.
Li Xiaobai wasn’t the least bit flustered, even if he recognized Sky Blade Song Que. At the mont, wearing the Human Skin Mask, he had transford completely into another person inside and out, and there was no way he would be recognized by the other party. As long as he stayed calm, Xueshenzi’s little trick would collapse by itself!
“Do you know that Li Xiaobai?”
Li Xiaobai looked at the old man with missing arms and asked, his eyes shooting out two sharp and scrutinizing gazes, as if he really was conducting an interrogation.
“Yes, I have indeed seen Li Xiaobai, but only briefly. After a fleeting presence in the Lower Realm, he quickly ascended to the Central Origin Realm and has since disappeared without a trace.”
Song Que’s face was calm, and he spoke in an unhurried, neither humble nor arrogant manner.
Li Xiaobai noticed that there were fewer wrinkles on his face and his skin had beco more lustrous. This was a sign that his cultivation level had broken through, extending his lifespan, indicating that he must have entered the Third Realm of Immortals.
“Did you hear that? Epheral as a morning glory and then disappearing without a trace. What does this imply? It implies that this guy is putting on an act, secretly going to the Lower Realm, disguising his identity surely with ulterior motives!”
“This person must be involved with many secrets. It’s best to capture him alive; extracting his secrets before killing him isn’t too late.”
Xueshenzi spoke slowly, word by word, and then turned towards Song Que to ask, “What do you think?”
“I believe that it is better to resolve enmities rather than exacerbate them. Li Xiaobai is of unrivaled talent and extraordinary strength. Holding the Five-colored Altar, he can go to the Earth Spirit Realm anyti to avoid any spotlight. Moreover, he is backed by an unnad but powerful force; it’s not wise to provoke further disputes.”
Song Que spoke with an honest and straightforward attitude.
“Hmm, not wise to provoke further disputes?”
“Do you know that among the Five-colored Altar he holds, one was forcibly snatched from our Blood Demon Sect!”
“This grudge was established long ago. And now, our Sect also has a premonition that he is planning to strike against our Blood Demon Sect. We must strike first to strengthen the authority of our Blood Demon Sect!”
Xueshenzi said coldly.
“That’s easy to handle. Just give a written decree, and after a few days of cultivating in the Blood Pool to master the Heart of the Blood Demon, I will set out to eradicate our enemies!”
Li Xiaobai spoke casually, as his attendance at the feast was for taking advantage. Today, even if Xueshenzi talked up a storm, Li Xiaobai was determined to cultivate in the Blood Pool.
“Very well then. In that case, I will give you special arrangents. Exceptionally, I will permit you to enter the Blood Pool. Song Que, from now on, you shall serve Bald Qiang Elder!”
Xueshenzi said.
“Yes, I understand!”
Song Que respectfully responded and stood behind Li Xiaobai, as motionless as if he were an old monk in ditation.
Li Xiaobai felt an indescribable sense of strangeness in his heart. If this were a test, it wouldn’t be necessary for this person from his past to follow him all the ti, right?
Or could it be that Sky Blade Song Que had been won over by Xueshenzi’s loyalty and now wholeheartedly served the Blood Demon Sect? Was the eting of apparent old acquaintances actually a covert operation to gather intelligence?
“Co, co, co, have a taste of the Blood Demon Sect’s culinary skills. Within our sect, there is a Demon Chef Lineage that specializes in hunting Demonic Beasts and cooking them. The food is greatly beneficial for one’s cultivation level and foundation!”
“Today’s preparations are rushed, but once Bald Elder triumphantly returns, our sect will personally hunt the Dragon Race, cooking dragon at to welco you with a feast!”
Xueshenzi burst into hearty laughter, unveiling the tableware to reveal a dazzling array of treasures, each of which could cause a frenzy if brought outside. Yet now, they were rely dishes on the table.
Li Xiaobai couldn’t taste much in this al. Although these treasures were beneficial for one’s cultivation level, to an ordinary person like him with a System, they only tasted slightly better.
Half an hour later, the food on the table was completely devoured like leaves swept by the wind.
Li Xiaobai, taking Song Que with him, left with a written decree from Xueshenzi, essentially an edict, allowing Bald Qiang to use the Blood Pool for a day.
Xueshenzi was truly stingy to the extre, granting only one day of cultivation ti. It showed how afraid he was of Li Xiaobai finding out about the nurtured child, and he even granted Song Que an extra day’s cultivation pass to accompany him into the Blood Pool, which further aroused Li Xiaobai’s suspicions.
“Master, where shall we go now?”
Song Que asked.
“Back to my cave dwelling first.”
Li Xiaobai spoke indifferently, holding back the urge to recognize the other person, sensing that sothing was amiss.
Inside the cave dwelling of the Blood Demon lineage.
Li Xiaobai sat on the bed while Song Que followed him in.
“Why are you following ? I’ve already had the sect disciples arrange another place for you.”
Li Xiaobai frowned and said.
“Hehehe, lad, I know who you are. It’s just the two of us in this cave dwelling; no need for pretense. Truly, I didn’t expect to et you again in the Central Origin Realm.”
Song Que’s solemn visage turned into a playful grin as he spoke.
“What do you an?”
Li Xiaobai still looked puzzled, gazing intently at the other, his instinct honed by years of deception telling him that there was definitely sothing off about this man!
“Stop pretending. I’m Sky Blade Song Que, and I know you have a Human Skin Mask!”
“That day on the Immortal Spirit Continent, after my remaining hand was severed by a Human Immortal, I developed a desire to cultivate in the Central Origin Realm. By chance, a sect from the Southern Continent was recruiting people to mine veins, so I joined them. After several twists and turns, I ended up in the Blood Demon Sect.”
“And you, how did you make it here?”
Song Que plopped himself down onto a Taishi Chair, making himself right at ho.
“But I still got your back. The Blood Demon Sect is keeping a close eye on you, though I haven’t revealed too much useful information, mind you.”
“What on earth are you, talking about Human Skin Masks and the Immortal Spirit Continent? As if I would ever set foot in a place like the Earth Spirit Realm that’s only fit for rearing pigs and sheep!”
“You speak without restraint, showing no respect, and dare to insult . It seems you’re tired of living. Guards, take this old man down!”
Li Xiaobai’s eyes suddenly shot out two sharp beams of light as he shouted in anger.
If he was 50 percent sure there was sothing wrong with the man before, now he was 70 percent certain. Sky Blade Song Que had been loyally serving on the fringe of the Immortal Spirit Continent for decades; if he really t Li Xiaobai, how could he not ntion anything related to that?
The old man had been proving his identity ever since he entered the cave dwelling, which seed a bit too much like protesting one’s innocence too much.
“Boy… you… what are you going to do!”
