"It seems the effect is quite good. In that case... let's keep that Seven-Colored Ice Cloud Flower for now, and use it after your bloodline and cultivation realm have stabilized." After a mont, Chen Fei retracted his hand and said with a smile.
"... Mr. Chen, thank you." After hesitating for a mont, Batian surprisingly addressed Chen Fei as 'Mr.' and expressed his gratitude.
At the sa ti, a demon light flashed across his body, revealing a set of armor. Then, as he walked out of the pool, he extended his hand, and a bright light shone from his palm, revealing the Scarlet Fla Tide Bowl.
"Mr. Chen, this is the Scarlet Fla Tide Bowl you wanted." Now, of course, he didn't feel that offering the bowl was not worth it.
Just experiencing 'break and stand' alone was worth the price for him. Moreover, he had just managed to break through, reaching the Fourth Heavenly Layer of Third-Level Demonic Beast.
This was a different world.
At this mont, his state of mind had completely changed.
"Master, has my bloodline awakened? What kind of bloodline is this?" As Chen Fei received the Scarlet Fla Tide Bowl, a figure flashed and appeared beside him. It was Cang Kun who excitedly asked.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
anwhile, Qing'er and the others also rushed over.
Qing'er looked at Cang Kun with astonished eyes and carefully observed for a long while before shaking his head in amazent and saying, "What an incredible bloodline power. What kind of bloodline is this?"
"The Black Water Thunder Fish." Chen Fei replied with a smile.
"Black Water Thunder Fish?" Qing'er and the others looked confused and clueless.
Evidently, they knew very little about ancient information.
"Yes, it's the bloodline of a very powerful ancient ferocious beast."
Chen Fei smiled and looked at Batian, saying, "Senior Batian, I've fulfilled my promise to you. Now, are we even?"
Hearing this, Batian was slightly stunned.
Then he gazed deeply at Chen Fei and said, "Mr. Chen, are you interested in joining our Dark Demon Tower? I guarantee that anything we can offer will be no problem as long as you join."
Upon hearing this, Jun She, Qing'er, and others frowned. Batian's words clearly revealed his identity...
Is he really part of the Dark Demon Tower? But since when!?
"No," Chen Fei shook his head and declined, "I don't have that kind of inclination, and I'm not good with restrictions. I'm used to being carefree."
Hearing this, Batian felt a bit regretful, but he didn't press further. Then he looked towards Jun She, Qing'er, and Qing Shan.
"Right Protector, Qing'er, Qing Shan, what about you? Now that Black Wind Gorge is gone, why not join in the Dark Demon Tower?"
He extended an invitation to the three individuals. In the past, Jun She and the others were always loyal to him, so even now, facing choices and separations, he hoped they could all stay together...
"Leader, when did you join the Dark Demon Tower? Why didn't any of us know?" After a mont of silence, Jun She frowned slightly and asked.
Originally, even if Black Wind Gorge no longer existed, he actually didn't mind continuing to follow Batian, but the problem now was Batian was related to a dark power like the Dark Demon Tower, leaving him with no choice but to be cautious.
Choosing between basking in sunlight and entering the darkness... the choice he makes now could significantly impact the trajectory of his future life, representing two completely opposite extres.
Upon hearing this, Batian's eyes flickered slightly, and he quietly said, "I don't rember exactly... maybe thirty to forty years ago."
"Thirty to forty years ago? Wait a minute, wasn't that..." Upon hearing this, Jun She's eyes suddenly froze, and his expression gradually beca complicated.
Wasn't thirty or forty years ago right around the seven-hundredth birthday banquet of City Lord Duan Henghe?
"I'm willing to continue following the leader." At this mont, Qing Shan, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up, expressing his stance.
"My life was saved by you, leader, so whether it's Black Wind Gorge or the Dark Demon Tower, it doesn't matter to . I am willing to follow you to the end of my life." Turns out, Batian had saved his life back then.
"I'm also willing to continue following." Qing'er also spoke up without explaining his reasons but clearly and directly expressed his position and response. He, too, was willing to continue following.
Seeing this, Jun She shook his head slightly with a bitter smile and said, "Since you two said so, I'll follow along as well. Leader, I'm willing to join you in the Dark Demon Tower."
"Thank you all for your trust."
Batian nodded slightly, feeling sowhat excited, and then looked at Chen Fei again. After a mont of thought, he took out a black token the size of a palm.
The front of the token was empty, with nothing on it, no patterns or designs. However, on the back, there was a not very conspicuous image of an Evil Ghost, stepping on ghostly flas, with two heads and four arms, sharp teeth, and fangs...
"This is my identity token in the Dark Demon Tower. Having this is equivalent to seeing . If Mr. Chen doesn't mind, please accept it." Batian handed the token to Chen Fei.
Chen Fei considered for a mont and, without refusal, accepted the token and put it away.
"In that case, it's ti for to take my leave. Cang Kun, next ti we et, I hope you have grown into a capable stronghold. Don't let Mr. Chen down." As Batian turned to leave, he said calmly.
Upon hearing this, Cang Kun stiffened slightly and then his eyes filled with determination as he said, "I will, leader, rest assured..."
Batian glanced back at him, his eyes narrowing slightly, and said slowly, "If possible, in the future, I'll wait for you in Kui Jing City!"
Threads of faint killing intent wrapped around the words, causing everyone to pause in surprise.
"Kui Jing City... I'm going back! Definitely." Cang Kun clenched his fists, eyes bursting with intense light, he said.
"Well then, Mr. Chen, see you again." With that, Batian's figure flashed and disappeared into the air.
Seeing this, Qing'er and the others nodded to Cang Kun and then also left. They vanished without a trace.
"Alright, let's go too." Chen Fei patted Cang Kun's shoulder, who was still in a bit of a daze, and turned to leave in the opposite direction.
This ti, although they gained considerably in Black Wind Gorge, things had also beco 'a bit complicated,' so in the coming days, trouble would certainly keep them busy.
"Yes." Cang Kun snapped back to reality, nodded. The two quickly left.
Before long, they had exited Black Wind Gorge territory and embarked on their journey ho. However, from the shadows, pairs of eyes fixed on their trail, and streams of information were continuously sent out.
Yee Qing was dead, Yun Ruyue was also dead, so the matter was destined not to end here! A greater storm was brewing, growing.
Soon afterward, the news quickly reached Ghost Wolf City. It was conveyed separately to the Yan Zhen Sect and the Yun Family.
Ghost Wolf City, within a lavish mansion of the Yan Zhen Sect.
Bang!
A loud noise accompanied by a horrifying force emanated from the deepest office in the mansion.
Inside the study, an elder with a long beard dressed in a purple robe looked fierce, his entire being filled with malevolence. In a fit of rage, he slamd the desk before him into dust! Rivulets of ash scattered.
In front of him, a long-haired middle-aged man was half-kneeling, trembling all over, with eyes full of horror and dread.
"You said Qing'er is dead?"
At this mont, an invisible force forcibly lifted his head. eting those chillingly venomous and grief-stricken eyes, the long-bearded elder spoke grotesquely.
"Yes, yes indeed," the long-haired middle-aged man's lips trembled, stuttering as he nodded pale-faced.
"Who did it?" The purple-robed elder, surrounded by a malicious aura, asked coldly.
"A guy called Chen Fei. He also killed the Black and White Elder. He did it alone," the long-haired middle-aged man hesitantly continued tremblingly.
"Also killed the Black and White Elder?" The purple-robed elder's eyes narrowed.
"Yes. And it's not just Young Master Qing, there's also the Black and White Elder, even Miss Yun Ruyue and Mr. Huang Lie, they're all dead." The long-haired middle-aged man quickly added.
"Yun Ruyue? Which Yun Ruyue?" The purple-robed elder's pupils shrank, eyes slightly startled.
"Yun Zhen Pill King's granddaughter, Miss Yun Ruyue." The long-haired middle-aged man imdiately responded.
"What?" The purple-robed elder's expression changed, his gaze fixed on the long-haired middle-aged man, asking, "Was it also that Chen Fei who killed her?"
"No, but he's closely related," the long-haired middle-aged man shook his head, recounting all he knew.
"What!?" Upon hearing the long-haired middle-aged man's words, the purple-robed elder's face imdiately turned surprised, his brows furrowed, eyes twitching.
"Black Wind Gorge Left Protector Golden Soul, Dark Demon Tower... Batian?" He then deeply furrowed his brow and murmured, as if struggling to digest what he just heard.
But upon reflection, it was understandable. Not ntioning the king in the shadows — the Dark Demon Tower actually surfaced? And the death of Black Wind Gorge Left Protector Golden Soul alone was daunting enough.
After all, strictly speaking, it seed his strength was sowhat inferior to that peak of the Third Heavenly Layer of Third-Level Demonic Beast...
Bang!
At this mont, a figure abruptly pushed the door open and burst in.
"Master, you have to avenge Qing'er! We only had one son, now, he is dead? He is dead, woooo..."
A middle-aged woman dressed in finery and wearing exquisite hair accessories stord in, her face full of grief and fury.
The sound was mingled with sorrow and anger, and a trace of grotesque malevolence.
Yee Qing was her only son, yet now, he was dead? Dead!?
The roar further irritated the purple-robed elder. However, the death of his son also drove him to lose reason, filled with malice and indignation.
"Spread my order, issue a bounty as one of the Seven Sons of Yee Mu Yan Zhen! Alive or dead, but I want that kid's head!"
So, he was Yee Mu? One of the current Seven Sons of Yan Zhen Sect?
"Yes!" The long-haired middle-aged man seed to have awaited this mont, nodded rapidly, and then fled the study, as if escaping from an oppressive atmosphere.
Simultaneously, the bounty swiftly spread within the Yan Zhen Sect, and even across the entire Ghost Wolf City.
