It was evident that Great Commander Zhong Ji was a bit disoriented; when Xu Jin asked him questions, his words were sowhat incoherent.
However, Xu Jin was able to clearly hear the root of the trouble.
The City Lord of Purple Wing City in the Eight Desolates Continent, the Purple Wing King, ca knocking.
On the way back that day, under Xu Jin’s deliberate manipulation, the Seventh Tier expert of the Purple Wing Clan that Great Commander Zhong Ji killed happened to be the beloved son of the Purple Wing King, also the Young Master of the Purple Wing Clan.
As a result, following the trail all the way, the Purple Wing King traced the matter to the Blood God Sect and even issued a docunt through the Eight Desolates Royal Court, already on his way here with people, intending to personally apprehend the culprit in Blood Moon City.
The ssage was passed from Punishnt Hall Mr. Mu to Zhong Ji, causing Great Commander Zhong Ji to beco utterly flustered.
"Originally, this matter could have been brushed aside!
A Seventh Tier Alien Race mber, dead is dead!
Our Blood God Sect follows orders without subordination; the King of the Eight Desolates couldn’t extend his reach too far, just fumble through by reporting that the killer died in battle, and it would have been over, Mr. Mu had it all arranged.
Unexpectedly, so wretched fool assassinated the Eight Desolates Special Envoy right at this critical point.
Which enraged the King of the Eight Desolates so much that he personally issued a decree, ordering the Purple Wing King with his mandate to co to Blood Moon City to catch the killer.
Damn, why am I so unlucky!" Zhong Ji complained.
Xu Jin listened, secretly amused.
He hadn’t expected the boorang to hit back on Great Commander Zhong Ji like this.
It really was quite fantastical.
Yet all of it, well, made perfect sense.
Under the circumstances of the Eight Desolates Special Envoy being assassinated, the Purple Wing King arriving with the decree from Ju Zhang, King of Eight Desolates, to hunt down the murderer, the high ranks of the Blood God Sect truly dared not bluff their way through.
Even if they did bluff, they’d have to go through the motions.
While Xu Jin pondered, Zhong Ji suddenly pulled Xu Jin aside and whispered, "Brother, why don’t you stand in for this ti!"
Xu Jin looked at Zhong Ji in surprise, and Zhong Ji hurriedly said, "Brother, I’m not asking you to take the bla, just to take a title, put you out there! Then before the Purple Wing King arrives, I’ll arrange for you to flee directly.
You stay outside for ten days or so, and I’ll bring you back, change your na, and you can re-enter as Blood Owl!
After so ti, or when the Sect Hierarch descends, you can switch back to your real na and act openly!
What do you think?"
After speaking, Zhong Ji whispered again, "Brother, it wasn’t easy for to reach this position, it’ll be hard to let it go! If you help out this ti, I won’t let you suffer any loss!
Anything you want, just say it, if I can get it, I will get it for you.
If I can’t get it, I’ll fight to get it!
Take these three Seventh-rank Spirit Blood Elixirs for now, they should be useful when you break through to the Seventh Tier."
Without further ado, Zhong Ji handed over a pill bottle.
Xu Jin’s mind raced as he considered the pros and cons of the matter in the shortest ti possible.
To him, the prospect within the Blood God Sect was irrelevant.
The key was gaining so ti for free action, along with the protection of the Blood Owl Great Commander.
The benefits were nurous.
However, if he didn’t agree, trouble was likely to follow later.
More importantly, if the Blood Owl Great Commander really got replaced, it would not be good for Xu Jin.
The next mont, Xu Jin made his decision.
He directly took the pill bottle and whispered, "I’ll follow your arrangents, just tell how to act!"
At this mont, Zhong Ji was so happy he was almost excited.
He could hardly wait to beco sworn brothers with Xu Jin then and there, sharing life and death, yearning to show his sincerity!
But Xu Jin knew very well that Zhong Ji’s limitless gratitude would only last this mont.
After this point in ti, it would rely be a topic for discussion, or just slightly closer brothers.
This is human nature.
"Alright, I’ll go see Mr. Mu!"
After saying that, Zhong Ji hurriedly left.
Xu Jin, however, casually tossed the three Seventh-rank Spirit Blood Elixirs into Suru Space.
Xu Jin was no longer afraid of the blood toxin, using this to enhance his cultivation level was also decent, the effect was similar to the Purity Pearl.
But that would be sowhat of a waste.
The most valuable aspect of the Seventh-rank Spirit Blood Elixir was that it could increase the breakthrough probability by slightly over one-tenth when a cultivator of the Ninth Layer Peak of the Sixth Tier advanced.
It was quite precious indeed!
Better not to use it unless necessary.
If used correctly later, it could help at least three people successfully break through to the Seventh Tier.
Fifteen minutes later, Zhong Ji, who had gone over optimistically, returned with his head down and dejected.
"Great Commander, what is this?" Xu Jin asked, surprised.
"Mr. Mu said no."
"How is it not possible? I’m willing to!" Xu Jin exclaid.
"Mr. Mu said it was confird by the Purple Wing King, looking for Zhong Ji of the Seventh Tier Sixth Layer, this part can’t be fumbled through! Your cultivation level is only at the Ninth Layer Peak of the Sixth Tier, it won’t work." Zhong Ji said helplessly.
"Then what... what do we do?"
"Mr. Mu has already made arrangents for those of us involved to avoid the heat, lay low for ten days or so!
He’ll find a way to bluff through.
After returning, I can get a na change and should be able to continue as the Blood Owl Great Commander." Zhong Ji said.
"That’s not bad, at least it’s a solution." Xu Jin said.
At this, Zhong Ji patted Xu Jin’s shoulder, "Brother, it’s not as simple as you think. I’ll be lying low outside, the ti is uncertain! But the position of Blood Owl Great Commander can’t be vacant for too long!
Once I hide away, so will be eyeing my position, including the elders outside the Punishnt Hall and the left and right laws.
Mr. Mu certainly won’t allow this position to be vacant for long, by then, soone will inevitably take my place!
