Chapter 1084 – Devil n
Upon taking stock of the gifts, it felt like counting family treasures.
Just as Bai Li Ren was counting the family treasures, a guard appeared with a report.
“Clan Patriarch, we lost contact with the n the clan had sent to pursue the witch...
Bai Li Ren paused his actions and displayed a solemn expression, “Let’s check the Longevity Lamps.”
Each Bai Li Clan mber and disciple would have a dedicated Longevity Lamp kept within the Ancestral Hall.
The lamps act as a sensor for the clan to determine their life and death.
Bai Li Ren took a step and appeared beside the guard standing outside the door and brought the guard with him. Bai Li Jia Bao quickly followed after them.
They arrived at the courtyard within the Ancestral Hall, where the Longevity Lamps were kept.
The Bai Li Clan was prosperous and blessed with many descendants, resulting in the entire courtyard filled with lited Longevity Lamps.
The main branch mbers were located in the main building, while the branch mbers filled the subsidiary buildings situated on both sides of the main building.
This place was a relatively covert place of the Bai Li Clan, not just anyone was allowed to enter.
Only when accompanied by the Clan Patriarch or the Half-Sage of the Clan, would a person be allowed to enter this place.
The guard reported the nas of the pursuit team and the elder guarding the place quickly pointed at the respective Longevity Lamps of those people.
“They are not extinguished? Then why did we lose communications with them?” Bai Li Ren looked at the dancing flas of the lamps.
A drop of the owner’s blood was used during the manufacturing process of the oil used by the Longevity Lamps. If any mishap were to happen to the person, the fla would weaken, and death would result in the fla extinguishing.
Yet the lamps were all burning well and fine.
The guard replied, “Maybe they were caught in an Isolation Formation that led to a temporary loss of communications. Let this subordinate check again.”
Bai Li Ren also felt that the guard had made a fuss of the situation. He was about to agree when Jia Bao exclaid, “Grandpa, those Longevity Lamps looks a bit strange!”
“How?”
“They are brighter than the rest. Also, the flas are sparkling and emitting a faint layer of black energy.”
The oil used in the lamps were made from unique ingredients. It would not contain any materials that would result in black smoke or anything like it to be emitted.
Bai Li Ren took a closer look and found Jia Bao’s observations to be true. He turned his gaze to inspect Bai Li Zi Xi’s lamp.
The lamp was initially located within the main building. After she was discovered to be a witch, it had been shifted to an isolated compartnt. The reason the clan did not extinguish the fla was to use it to monitor her state and condition.
Bai Li Zi Xi’s lamp was currently the brightest in the building and it was also emitting faint traces of black energy.
Bai Li Ren sighed, “There is no need to contact these people, they have been turned into Devil n by Bai Li Zi Xi.”
The guard turned silent after hearing the news.
Bai Li Jie Bao was feeling terrible; those n were elite guards of the clan, yet they have been turned into Devil Man just like that. Truly detestable!
Bai Li Ren added, “Imdiately inform the Eight Great Clans of our discovery about the Devil n and how their respective lamps will emit black energy. This will allow the Eight Great Clans to flush out all the Devil n hiding amongst their clans!”
“Yes. This subordinate will do it now.”
“Grandpa, how are you going to handle Brother Ye Jun?”
“We gave him a chance, but a pity he did not treasure it. He misled and deceived this old man when the love root was pulled out. Now that he has beco a Devil Man and is on his dying breath due to serious injuries, no one can save him.”
Bai Li Jia Bao’s impression of this clan brother was cold, sullen. She just felt indignant that one of their most talented clan mbers was hard by Bai Li Zi Xi.
“Okay. Grandpa, let us inspect and check the other Longevity Lamps.”
