"No." Xing Jue shook his head.
"That's strange."
"Why do you ask, Lord?"
"The Blood Demon cultivates the Bloodlust Demonic Art. Refining human blood is indeed beneficial to his power."
"But given his current level of power, massacring the commoners of that small world and the disciples of the Sacred Alliance should be meaningless."
"In fact, given the Blood Demon's current power, massacring is no longer of much use to him. After all, the Bloodlust Demonic Art is far inferior to the evil spirit body!"
"And now that he's doing this, I'm guessing that he's trying to nurture someone or something."
"But if he isn't, then there's no way to know. Perhaps the Blood Demon is conducting some sort of experiment!" The Penal Lord was still trying to guess the Blood Demon's goal.
Faced with such a situation, Xing Jue couldn't help but admire the Penal Lord. Indeed, as he had guessed, the Blood Demon was nurturing an evil spirit body.
However, that evil spirit body was Xue Mei. Why would Xing Jue tell the Penal Lord the truth?
If the entire Sacred Region knew that the Blood Demon was nurturing an evil spirit body, a terrifying threat that would bring destruction to the world …
Xing Jue couldn't guarantee that the races that didn't dare to deal with the Blood Demon would join forces to deal with the Blood Demon in order to avoid this disaster.
At that time, Xing Jue didn't care whether the Blood Demon would be in danger or not, but he didn't want Xue Mei to be in danger as well.
"Right, Xing Jue, although all the disciples of the Sacred Alliance were killed in the Fire World, their corpses still remained."
"However, we didn't see the corpses of Captain Linley and the disciples of the Dao Clan."
"Moreover, there were two more unknown corpses. It's been confirmed that both of them were quite powerful when they were alive."
"Xing Jue, you witnessed the massacre. Do you know what happened?" The Penal Lord asked again.
Seeing this, Xing Jue didn't hide anything. He told the Penal Lord about how the Dao Clan Elder ambushed him and then forced him to his death.
After hearing this, the Penal Lord clearly didn't expect it. He furrowed his brows and his face darkened as though he was pondering something.
"Xing Jue, don't tell anyone about this for the time being!" Sentencing Officer said solemnly after a moment of silence.
"Yes." Xing Jue nodded.
He knew that even if he informed Lord Xing Jue, the Sacred Alliance would only be wary of the Dao Clan and would not take any measures.
This was because Linley, the Dao Clan disciples, and the Dao Clan Elders were dead. Only Xing Jue was left.
His words had no basis and he had a grudge with the Dao Clan, so it was difficult to use them as evidence. Instead, they would think that he was framing them.
Therefore, even if the Sacred Alliance believed Xing Jue's words, it would not be appropriate for them to attack the Dao Clan without sufficient evidence.
Furthermore, although the Dao Clan was not as powerful as the Sacred Alliance, they were still very powerful in the western part of the Sacred Region.
Not only did the Dao Clan have Asura Battle Monarchs, but they also had Asura Battle Emperors. In the western region of the Sacred Region, they were definitely considered giants.
Therefore, unless they had no other choice, the Sacred Alliance would not be willing to start a war with such a clan. After all, there would always be losses in war.
"Xing Jue, your soul was almost exhausted that day. It is already a miracle that you are still alive."
"Although you are alive now, your body still needs to be adjusted. This immortal grass bed will be very helpful to you. Before your body recovers, stay here for the time being," Sentencing Officer said kindly after learning everything.
"Thank you, Lord!"
He knew Xing Jue's condition the best. He knew that he had not simply lost all his blood and was physically injured. If that had been the case, Xing Jue would not have ended up in this state.
With the Spirit Eater Race's secret technique that Xing Jue had mastered, as long as his soul was not destroyed, his physical body could be reforged at any time.
However, it was indeed his soul that was heavily injured. After the Blood Symbol Venomous Bug sucked all of Xing Jue's blood, Xing Jue's soul was almost exhausted and he had almost lost his life.
However, the soul within his soul source was currently recovering. This was indeed related to the immortal grass bed beneath him.
"This damned thing."
After Sentencing Officer left, Xing Jue sent his consciousness into his soul source and found that the Blood Symbol Venomous Bug was sleeping soundly. It was sleeping soundly, as if it had truly treated Xing Jue's body as its home.
Xing Jue did not dare to disturb it, because it was far too scary. Back then, when it entered Xing Jue's soul source, Xing Jue had used his soul to defend against it. However, it was to no avail.
Even if he used his soul to attack it again, it would only anger it. Who knows, if it sucked Xing Jue's blood again, its soul would dry up again. If that happened, Xing Jue would be asking for trouble.
Although the bug was temporarily asleep, the thought that this was a creature that fed on his blood and used his body as a weapon made Xing Jue's entire body feel uneasy.
However, when faced with an existence that he could not defeat, Xing Jue had no choice but to allow it to stay in his body.
"Eh? This is? "
When Xing Jue's consciousness returned to his body, he found that there was an extra storage bracelet on his wrist. It was not his item.
This scene made Xing Jue realize something. However, when he projected his consciousness into the storage bracelet, he was both surprised and overjoyed.
Buzz.
Xing Jue first set up a barrier. Then, his body turned into a ray of light and entered the storage bracelet.
When Xing Jue opened his eyes again, he was in another space. This was the space of the storage bracelet. Although it was not very big, it was at least picturesque.
"Xing Jue, it's great that you're fine!"
At that moment, a figure instantly appeared before Xing Jue. Xing Jue was very familiar with that appearance. It was the senior of the Spirit Eater Clan, Hun Ming.
"Senior, why are you in the storage bracelet? Just what happened? "
Xing Jue discovered that the storage bracelet was completely empty. Apart from Hun Ming, there were two other high quality Exalted weapons. Xing Jue had seen those two weapons before. They were the weapons of the two elders of the Dao Clan.
Such an unforeseen event made Xing Jue think of Xue Mei. Xing Jue felt that it was very likely that Hun Ming knew the truth of the matter.
"Xing Jue, you're referring to Xue Mei, right?"
"Sigh, it's all my fault. I couldn't protect Xue Mei and ended up dragging her into this." Hun Ming's face was filled with self-blame when Xue Mei was mentioned.
"Senior, what's going on? How did you encounter the Blood Demon? "Xing Jue asked anxiously.
"Actually, the meteor storm that day was set up by the Blood Demon. The reason it lingered in the forbidden zone of the Sanctuary was because there was a mysterious power there that was attracting it."
"What attracted it was Xue Mei. After we were hit by the meteor storm, Xue Mei and I were brought to the Blood Demon's side."
"When the Blood Demon saw that Xue Mei possessed the legendary evil spirit body, he was overjoyed to the point of going mad. He insisted on taking Xue Mei as his disciple, swearing that he would nurture her into a demon god."
"However, Xue Mei was not interested in the so-called demon god at all. As such, Xue Mei rejected him and begged the Blood Demon to let us go."
"However, the Blood Demon guarded the forbidden zone of the Sanctuary for several years in order to find the source that attracted him. Finally, he found the result that made him overjoyed. How could he let Xue Mei go so easily?"
"Later on, he used my life to threaten Xue Mei, wanting her to massacre the world outside the forbidden zone of life. In consideration of my safety, Xue Mei had no choice but to submit to the Blood Demon."
"With the Blood Demon's help, Xue Mei began to carry out an extremely unwilling massacre. During the first massacre, Xue Mei practically finished it in tears."
"However, after the first massacre, Xue Mei's temperament changed greatly. After the second massacre, she no longer recognized me. It was as if she was merely a tool to be slaughtered, to be controlled by the Blood Demon."
"Later on, for some reason, Xue Mei regained consciousness. She freed me from the Blood Demon's control and told me to hide in this storage bracelet and not to come out. She said that she would come and find me in the future."
"By the way, Xue Mei asked me to pass on a message to you. She told you not to worry about her, she said …"
"What did she say?"
"She said that perhaps this was her destiny."
Hun Ming told him the truth. At that moment, Xing Jue felt as if his heart was being sliced by a thousand knives. It was extremely painful.
This was because he knew that Xue Mei had sacrificed herself for him once again. At first, it was for Hun Ming's sake. She had carried out the massacre unwillingly, suffering from inner torment and causing her temperament to change greatly.
Now, for the sake of his life, she had agreed to become the Blood Demon's disciple and follow that demon forever.
Under the guidance of the Blood Demon, Xue Mei had become so powerful in such a short period of time. It was hard to imagine what would happen to Xue Mei in the long run.
Perhaps in the near future, Xue Mei would really become a disaster to this world. She would become a true evil spirit, and that was the outcome that Xing Jue did not want to see the most.
"Senior, you don't have to feel guilty. Now that I have some clues about the Blood Demon, I will be able to take Xue Mei back from his hands when I have enough strength in the future."
Although his heart was in great pain, Xing Jue still smiled and comforted Hun Ming. He did not want to burden his ancestor-level senior too much.
"Xing Jue, do you really have clues about the Blood Demon?" As expected, Hun Ming's eyes lit up when he heard Xing Jue's words.
"Yes, as long as I have enough strength in the future, I will be able to find him." Xing Jue vowed.
However, in reality, he did not have any clues about the Blood Demon. The only clue he had was the Blood Mark Venomous Bug in his body.
However, the Blood Mark Venomous Bug was the bargaining chip that the Blood Demon used to threaten Xue Mei. It was a hidden danger in Xing Jue's body, and it was a terrifying existence that could kill Xing Jue.
After that, Xing Jue told Hun Ming about his trip to the Sacred Alliance.
However, to reassure Hun Ming, Xing Jue skipped over the potential threats of the Sacred Alliance and the Dao Clan. He only told him about the good things that happened here.
After learning about this, Hun Ming's expression finally eased up.
After all, Xing Jue was the hope of the Spirit Eater Tribe. Now that Xing Jue had obtained the recognition of the Sacred Alliance's Punishment Lord, he was naturally gratified.
"Xing Jue, since you have obtained the Sacred Alliance's trust, my mission is considered complete."
"There are many experts in the Sacred Alliance, so you don't need me to protect you anymore. I have decided to return to the Fallen Goose Valley in the Soul Source World and protect the Spirit Eater Tribe's wealth for you!"
"Yes, I will think of a way to help you leave this place!"
Xing Jue agreed with Hun Ming's idea. His father, who was extremely important to him, was in the Fallen Goose Valley. However, his father's current strength was not strong.
Moreover, the Dao Clan was wary of the Soul Source World. If they found out that their stronghold in the Soul Source World had been destroyed, they would definitely go to war.
Even though the Fallen Goose Valley was protected by the Divine Goose's boundary, Xing Jue was still worried if his father was alone. Hun Ming's return would give him an extra layer of protection.
After all, if necessary, the two of them could hide in the mysterious black hole that only the Spirit Eater Tribe could see.
