All he could do was clumsily pull out a bottle of rcury, scribbling an array on the floor. Then he dug out a blood bag filled with virgin blood, along with various sacrificial tools, bone powder, and so on.
Finally, he managed to sketch out a wobbly and ssy Alchemy Matrix on the floor.
Although it was ugly, it worked.
As Butcher dripped his own blood into the matrix, spirituality activated the array.
A faint mist began to spread.
Before his eyes, an endless darkness seed to take shape.
At the edge of the darkness, he vaguely saw a pair of golden vertical eyes, resplendent like the sun.
"Supre."
Butcher lowered his head, not daring to et those eyes directly.
The majestic and scorching golden eyes carried no emotion.
Amidst the silence, a detached voice echoed faintly, "Speak."
Butcher steeled himself and recounted every word of the conversation he had just overheard.
Not a single word was omitted.
But his body trembled as he spoke, clearly unwilling to say these things.
His ten fingers even dug into the ground, struggling intensely.
In the silence, the detached voice spoke again, "It seems you are very resistant."
Beads of cold sweat stread down Butcher's brutish forehead as he quickly knelt and bowed, saying in a low voice, "If there is anything you need, just tell . You granted
a second life, and I am willing to serve you even at the cost of my own life. But Moon Princess… she's still a child, and she has been kind to . I beg you not to harm her."
The burly man trembled as he summoned his lifelong courage and said, "She's a good girl, not a Fallen, and she bears no malice toward you. She joined the Pharmacist's group simply to investigate her teacher's matter. She's long guessed you have a way to leave the Immortal Palace but told no one about it."
He lowered his head heavily to the floor. "Except , but I have been loyal to you! I am not like that Pharmacist Old Thief!"
After a mont of silence, the detached voice asked, "She seems valuable."
"Yes, very valuable indeed,"
Butcher said earnestly. "But there's no need for her to beco a Divine Servant and get drawn into this conflict. Everyone's constitution differs; if she rejects the Ancient God's Blood, wouldn't that be a great loss? When it cos to fighting, just rely on !"
In the darkness, the golden eyes flickered faintly, about to extinguish. A soft voice asked, "How did you co to know her?"
Unable to resist the Supre's will, Butcher confessed everything: "Her teacher once defeated
in the Immortal Palace but showed
rcy and let
go. However, they docunted my existence in their notes. Later, her teacher died unexpectedly. Based on the notes left behind, she managed to find ."
He added, "At that ti, I was gravely injured and happened to be found by her. It was then that I beca corrupted and turned into a Fallen. But she didn't discriminate against ; she just asked
to take her to the Pharmacist, claiming it could save ."
The Supre's ethereal voice arose, "How did you fall?"
Butcher lowered his head as his voice grew somber, "We used to have a team that explored the outskirts of the Immortal Palace to make a little extra money to support our families. Unfortunately, we encountered a group of ancient corpses that had fallen from a dinsional rift. They asked
to stay behind as the rear guard while they went for reinforcents. I thought we were brothers, a family, so I agreed."
The golden eyes in the darkness silently fixed on him.
"But they never ca back. Instead, they left the Immortal Palace and retired directly."
Butcher said in a low voice, "I was abandoned."
The Supre said indifferently, "And yet you trust Moon Princess?"
Butcher thought for a mont and replied, "Boss, she's different."
The Supre cast him a glance, "Then, what if I truly intend to harm her?"
Butcher's entire body suddenly tensed. He raised his rugged face, pale as a sheet. "Why? She bears no malice toward you! And I'll keep watch over her; she won't betray you! Why do you want to kill her?"
As if realizing sothing, his expression changed drastically. "Wait, do you want to make her your Female Sacrifice?"
The so-called Female Sacrifice was a concept passed down from ancient tis.
According to legend, the Ancient God Clan would select beautiful maidens from among humans, whose spirit and soul were pure and flawless. Through acts of intimacy conducted on the altar, the Ancient God Clan would better absorb spirituality to restore their power.
In the darkness, the Supre remained silent.
"No, she's not fit for it! In the Human World, she's just an ugly girl! You haven't seen what she looks like beneath the mask; she's so ugly that she could frighten children to tears! In our Human World, there are plenty of outstanding won. Take your pick, anyone but her! She already has soone she likes. Rumor has it they're even living together."
Butcher was so frantic his face turned red, veins bulging on his neck. "She's way too young to be up to any good, ssing around with her boyfriend all day. Give it a few more months, and she'll have a big belly! What use could such a woman possibly have to you? She's not worthy! Pfft!"
During his tirade, he kept his head down and thus didn't notice.
The majestic and ancient golden eyes flickered for just a brief mont with disbelief and surprise.
Living together was true, but they hadn't been ssing around.
And her belly getting big? What nonsense.
Slanderous lies.
After a long pause.
The Supre remarked coldly, "What if I order you to kill her?"
Boom!
It was as if thunderclaps had exploded next to Butcher's ears.
He took a deep breath, his sturdy fra trembling slightly as he rasped, "Then I'd rather die than carry out your order. Just give the word, and I'll explode myself right now!"
But after waiting a long while, the Supre did not give the order.
"Then protect her well."
The Supre said indifferently, "But keep your mouth shut."
Butcher was overjoyed and quickly replied, "If I don't die, she won't die!"
A mont later, the Supre spoke again, "Put sothing into the matrix at random."
Bewildered, Butcher pulled a handgun from his waist and placed it at the center of the matrix.
The mist churned and gradually engulfed the handgun.
With a bang.
Butcher felt as though much of his spirituality had been drained away.
The darkness before his eyes vanished, and the oppressive force disappeared without a trace.
Along with the Alchemy Matrix, which dissipated into thin air.
And the handgun, which had similarly evaporated.
"What was Supre doing? Why did He take a handgun? Is He studying Human World weaponry?"
Butcher's big head was filled with confusion.
Suddenly, he seed to realize sothing, rummaging through the room to find a bag before briskly running out.
"Lord Butcher."
The Bunny Girls once again bowed in greeting, revealing a dizzying view.
Butcher didn't even glance at them as he brushed past all sorts of candidates. "Get lost, get lost! Do you want a beating?"
He stord straight to a luxury cabin at the far end of the ship and banged on the door.
Thud, thud, thud!
After a mont, a cold voice ca from inside: "Are you insane?"
The door opened.
A furious Moon Princess stood there, clutching the little dress she had just bought—a collection of expensive Lolita dresses.
At the sight of her holding the dresses, Butcher's face darkened in alarm: "Sin, this is all sin!"
With one swipe, the brute snatched the dresses and tore them in half with both hands!
Rip!
Moon Princess was dumbfounded as her five thousand yuan literally vanished into thin air.
Without saying another word, Butcher barged into the room, eyeing her vanity table, which was cluttered with bottles and jars.
Then he swept his massive hand across, smashing all her skincare and makeup products.
Crash, bang, smash—he destroyed everything.
"Sin, the source of all sin!"
He even turned to her wardrobe and showed no rcy.
Raising his hand, a burst of violent Qi Force destroyed it into dust.
Moon Princess widened her eyes, her beautiful gaze locking on him. "Are you insane? What am I supposed to use for makeup and clothing now?"
"Makeup? What makeup? You always wear a mask. What's the point of makeup?"
Butcher glared at her, shoving his bag into her hands. "From now on, wear this!"
Moon Princess silently pulled out a silk shirt with pink and white lotus blossoms printed on it, along with a pair of black pants from the bag.
Yes, the kind old market ladies often wore.
"Butcher!"
She gritted her teeth. "Even my grandmother wouldn't wear such hideous clothes!"
"It's a birthday gift I bought for my mother. I'll reluctantly lend it to you."
Butcher gave her a thumbs-up, grinning broadly. "Wear these from now on. It's safer!"
Moon Princess was dumbfounded, her voice rising sharply. "Butcher, are you out of your mind?"
At that mont, a handso young man holding a bouquet of exquisitely wrapped roses approached the door, stunned. "Uh, what's going on? Miss Yue Ji, do you have so ti? I'd like to invite you to dinne—"
Bang!
Butcher, with his current status, casually smacked him into the wall. Blood splattered everywhere.
"Dinner with my ass."
He cursed, "Blind mutt."
