To Jian Wushuang and Sinking Fire Demon Master, killing Qing Loathe Saint was an insignificant matter. However, to the Zhao Family, it was a completely different matter.
"Qing, Qing Loathe Saint is dead?"
"These two killed Qing Loathe Saint?"
"Oh no, oh no, Qing Loathe Saint died in our Zhao Family. We're doomed this time!"
At this moment, the entire Zhao Clan was plunged into an unprecedented panic.
Their fear stemmed from Sinking Fire Demon Master's terrifying strength. He had killed Qing Loathe Saint with a casual wave of his hand. He was obviously a Master of the Rules, a high and mighty Master of the Rules. He was a supreme existence that the entire Zhao Family could only look up to.
On the other hand, they were afraid that Qing Loathe Saint had died in their Zhao Family. If the Illusory Moon Sky Sect wanted to settle the score, the Zhao Family would not be able to escape responsibility.
Jian Wushuang and Sinking Fire Demon Master did not care about these. After killing Qing Loathe Saint, Sinking Fire Demon Master turned to look at Zhao Mang, who was already in shock.
"Young man, I'm Sinking Fire. If you're willing, from today onwards, you'll follow me as an in-name disciple," Sinking Fire Demon Master said directly.
"In-name disciple?" Zhao Mang was a little confused.
He knew very well that Sinking Fire Demon Master could kill Qing Loathe Saint with a flip of his hand. He was obviously a Master of the Rules. To him, such an existence was too far away and unreachable. Now, such an expert had taken the initiative to appear in front of him and wanted to take him as an in-name disciple?
To him, this was like a pie falling from the sky. For a moment, he was a little dizzy.
"Why, are you unwilling?" Sinking Fire Demon Master asked indifferently.
"No, no." Zhao Mang quickly shook his head. Then, he took a deep breath and said solemnly, "Senior, you may not know this, but my meridians have been blocked since I was born. I can't absorb the spiritual energy of Heaven and Earth. For the past sixteen years, I've put in a lot of effort, but I've never been able to become a real cultivator …"
Before Zhao Mang could finish, the Sinking Fire Demon Lord interrupted, "I've already seen through your physique. But since I'm here, I naturally have a way to improve your physique and let you become a true cultivator. Now, you only need to answer me. Are you willing to be my disciple in name?"
"Yes, of course!!"
Upon hearing that Sinking Fire Demon Master had a way to change his physique, Zhao Mang was overjoyed. He immediately knelt down and kowtowed three times to Sinking Fire Demon Master respectfully. He then shouted, "Disciple Zhao Mang greets Master."
"Get up." Sinking Fire Demon Master waved his hand and Zhao Mang stood up involuntarily.
When Jian Wushuang saw this, he smiled and said, "Chenhuo, congratulations on taking in a good disciple."
A smile appeared on Sinking Fire Demon Master's face. To be honest, after a few days of observation, Sinking Fire Demon Master liked Zhao Mang's temperament and character. Other than the fact that Zhao Mang lacked training and experience, Zhao Mang was very good in other aspects.
In addition, Zhao Mang was born with terminated meridians, just like him in the past. That was why Sinking Fire Demon Master decided to take him in as a disciple. As for why he was only a disciple in name and not a direct disciple, it was just to give Zhao Mang more training.
However, the surrounding experts of the Zhao Family could not figure it out.
"This mysterious expert in front of us actually took Zhao Mang, a good-for-nothing, as a disciple?"
"Zhao Mang was born a good-for-nothing, but he was defeated by the Master of the Rules?"
"Is this Master of the Rules blind? There are so many disciples in the Zhao Family. Any one of them is stronger than Zhao Mang, but he actually chose Zhao Mang as his disciple?"
Everyone in the Zhao Family was discussing.
Of course, they were communicating secretly and did not dare to say it out loud.
"Zhao Mang, you don't have any attachment to the Zhao Family now, do you?" Sinking Fire Demon Master asked.
Zhao Mang looked around at everyone in the Zhao Family, then said firmly, "No."
"Good. Prepare yourself and leave with me now," Sinking Fire Demon Master said.
"I don't need to prepare anything. I can leave at any time. However, before I leave, I have a presumptuous request," Zhao Mang said respectfully.
"Your presumptuous request is for your sister, right?" Sinking Fire Demon Master glanced at Zhao Ling.
"Yes." Zhao Mang nodded solemnly. "Master, since I was born, I was completely useless in the Zhao family because I was unable to cultivate. No one took me seriously, except for my fourth sister, Zhao Ling. She was the only one who cared about our sibling relationship. She has been of great help to me all these years. And today, if it weren't for you, she would have been sacrificed by the Zhao family. Therefore, I am a little worried about her."
"I understand," Sinking Fire Demon Master nodded slightly. Sinking Fire Demon Lord nodded slightly. "However, I have some important matters to attend to in the Third Heaven. It's enough for me to bring you along. I can't bring another person with me. However, I can promise you that before I leave, I will ensure your sister's safety."
"Thank you, Master," Zhao Mang was overjoyed.
When Zhao Ling heard this, she was also pleasantly surprised. She immediately knelt down and said respectfully, "Zhao Ling, thank you for your kindness, Senior."
"Get up. You have a good heart. It's a pity that your family is too dirty," Sinking Fire Demon Master said calmly.
Zhao Ling got up and stood beside Zhao Mang. Like Zhao Mang, she had no feelings for the people in the Zhao Family. Her eyes were filled with coldness and disgust.
Even her father, Zhao Yong, was the same.
"Alright, the two of you can leave with me now," Sinking Fire Demon Master said and was about to leave with Zhao Mang and Zhao Ling.
However, at this moment …
"Wait a moment!" A low shout abruptly rang out in the hall.
Everyone looked over and saw that Zhao Yong's face was extremely pale. He said with a trembling voice, "You killed Saint Qing Yan. He was a core disciple of the Illusory Moon Sky Sect and the personal disciple of the Dark and Glory Master. You can't leave!"
Hearing this, Jian Wushuang laughed.
Sinking Fire Demon Master's face turned cold. "Zhao Yong, do you know why I didn't kill you just now?"
Zhao Yong was stunned.
Yes, Sinking Fire Demon Master had attacked twice. The first time was to force him to retreat. The second time was to kill Saint Qing Yan.
Since Sinking Fire Demon Master could kill Saint Qing Yan in an instant, he could naturally kill Zhao Yong as well. However, Sinking Fire Demon Master did not do so.
