Louis was shocked to see the Grand Elder's serious expression. He shook his head and said, "I … I didn't leave the Dark Forest …"
"Are you telling the truth?" The Grand Elder confirmed again.
Louis nodded heavily. "Grand Elder, how could I lie? Besides, I know what it means to leave the Dark Forest. Would I risk the extermination of my clan to go out of the Dark Forest to hunt for prey? Of course not. "
"That's good. That's good …"
The Grand Elder heaved a sigh of relief. As long as this big shot did not come from the Holy Land of the Light Clan, he should not be targeting the Sucking Blood Clan. He just happened to be passing by. Although only the Four Kings of the Light Clan were known to exist among the legendary Martial Saints, the Secret Land was vast and boundless. There were tens of thousands of creatures. It was possible that a Martial Saint had been nurtured somewhere else.
"Grand Elder, Big Brother, what's going on?" Louis scratched his head in confusion.
Lester said, "A big shot has come to the Dark Forest. I think he's a Martial Saint."
A Martial Saint?
Louis sucked in a breath of cold air. Although his strength was comparable to that of a human Martial Emperor, he still felt an immense pressure when facing such an expert who stood at the top of the pyramid.
He couldn't figure it out. "Why would a Martial Saint suddenly come here?"
"No one knows. Tell me what happened in the Dark Forest in detail. Don't leave out any details," Lester said seriously, looking straight at him.
How could Louis not know that Big Brother and the Grand Elder were suspecting that he had something to do with this? He didn't dare to hide anything, and immediately recounted the entire process of capturing the members of the Silver Wing Mercenary Group in detail. Of course, he also told them about how his younger sister, Ghost, had fought with him over a human.
"What? Ghost's shoulder blades were locked by those humans with iron claws? "The Grand Elder's face changed.
"Yes, Grand Elder. If I had arrived a little later, my little sister would have been taken out of the Dark Forest and sold in Mu City." Louis nodded.
"Damn it. Where are those people? Don't let a single one of them go. Once you've sucked their blood dry, turn their flesh into jerky and eat it when you have nothing to do, "said the Grand Elder viciously. It was clear that he felt very sorry for Spectre.
Lester's focus was on something else. "Second Brother, did you say that two of them ran away?"
Louis was stunned for a moment before he nodded and said, "Yes, one of the little sisters said that he was her friend and that he had a stinky duck as a pet beast. That stinky duck was extremely fast and disappeared with him in a flash. My men spread out to look for him all night but couldn't find him. I'm so angry. If I find him, I'll skin him alive and pull out his tendons."
Speaking of Xiao Luo, his teeth itched with hatred.
"What about the other one?" Lester asked.
"The other one is the deputy leader of the mercenary group. I don't know what happened, but he broke free from the rope that bound him. Coincidentally, we were searching for the first one with all our might, and he found an opportunity to escape. That fat pig is like a loach. We didn't even notice when he slipped away. By the time we realized it, he was already long gone. I was afraid that a few of these fat pigs would escape, so I quickly brought them back to the castle and locked them up, just in case," Louis said truthfully.
Could it be that the arrival of this important person in the Dark Forest was related to the two humans who escaped?
The elders thought to themselves.
Louis seemed to know what they were thinking. He waved his hand and said solemnly, "Elders, big brother, I can guarantee that the important person you're talking about has nothing to do with the two fat pigs who escaped."
"How can you be so sure?" asked the Grand Elder anxiously.
Louis patted his chest and said, "One of them is a mercenary. If he knew the legendary Warrior Saint, why would he risk his life as a mercenary in the Dark Forest? It's even more impossible for the other one. He's just an insignificant human Martial Master, a mere Martial Master. How could he have anything to do with the most powerful person in this world?
Although he has a talking duck as his pet beast, that duck is just an ordinary one. It's not a beast demon at all. It must have eaten some rare treasure or elixir to gain intelligence and be able to speak human language. "
Hearing this, the elders felt a little more certain. In fact, they didn't think that the two humans who escaped had anything to do with this important person.
"Could he have passed by our Dark Forest by chance?" Lester looked at the Grand Elder.
The Grand Elder looked into the distance and said, "Perhaps. What we can be sure of is that he's not from the Light Clan's sacred land!"
"That's right. We didn't break the agreement. The Light Clan's sacred land has no reason to come here. This important person must be a reclusive powerful person from somewhere else."
One of the elders chimed in. His old eyes shone with excitement. "If we have the chance to discuss the profound meaning of cultivation with this important person, our Sucking Blood Clan will benefit a lot. Maybe our cultivation level will improve faster and we'll be able to compete with the Light Clan's sacred land sooner."
Eh?
Everyone's eyes lit up when they heard the elder's suggestion. They were all excited.
"Third Brother is right. As the elders of the Sucking Blood Clan, we've lived for hundreds of years, but our cultivation level has always been stuck at the Martial Grandmaster level. It's difficult for us to break through to the Martial Venerable level, let alone the legendary Warrior Saint. Looking at the history of our Sucking Blood Clan for thousands of years, the highest cultivation level among us is still the Martial Grandmaster level. After reaching the Martial Grandmaster level, it seems that no matter how much human blood we suck, we can't improve our cultivation level anymore."
"That's right. We've hit a bottleneck. If we can't reach the Warrior Saint level, our Sucking Blood Clan will never be able to change our situation. We'll have to live in this Dark Forest forever."
"If we can ask this important person for advice like Third Brother said, maybe the problem that has troubled us for hundreds of years can be solved easily."
The more the elders talked, the more excited they became. The more they talked, the more excited they became. It was as if they could see the day when the Sucking Blood Clan would rise.
The Grand Elder's eyes were also burning, but at the same time, he looked worried. "I wonder what this important person's temperament is like. I'm afraid this legendary powerful person is all aloof and arrogant. If we go to ask for advice, I'm afraid … "
This was no doubt a basin of cold water splashed on everyone's hearts.
"Grand Elder, I think we'd better not get in touch with this important person."
