1175: Chapter 1175: Releasing the Monster 1175: Chapter 1175: Releasing the Monster Du Huai stared at Tan Yaozong, carefully discerning the truth from the lies in his words.
This kid was all smooth talk; hardly half of what he said could be true.
With a gloomy threat, he said, “Fine, if you have no connection with Long Fei, then you’re no use to .
If I eat you, consider it bad luck.”
Tan Yaozong quickly waved his hands and said, “Hey, how can you not distinguish between right and wrong?
You want to eat because I know him, and you still want to eat because I don’t know him; either way, I’m dood, aren’t I?”
Du Huai sneered, “Give one reason not to kill you?”
Tan Yaozong raised his neck and said, “Listen well, my father is the well-known Ninth Master Tan of Binhai City.
Our family controls the entire fishing market in Binhai.
Killing brings you no benefits.
On the contrary, by cooperating with us, our family would definitely provide you with many good things.
Money if you want money, people if you want people, benefits way more than what you’d get from eating .”
“Is that so?”
Du Huai hesitated, considering that their Yin Ghost Sect had suffered significant losses in strength and indeed needed to ally with other powers.
Seeing him interested, Tan Yaozong pressed on, “Master, with your high cultivation level, you don’t even have a disciple of high talent.
Why not take as your disciple?
I assure you, I’ll bring glory to your sect.”
Du Huai saw his slick deanor and changed his tone at once, “Audacious, behave yourself.
I almost fell for your trick, you’re deliberately trying to get close to , and then wait for to let you go.
Are you going to seek out Long Fei after that, to co back and destroy ?”
And to be honest, Tan Yaozong did have this plan.
He had no regard for this gloomy old man; if he were to take a master, he could use his relationship with Sixth Master Tan and beco a disciple under Long Fei.
Once the old man trusted him and let him out, he could notify Long Fei to co here and kill the old man for a great achievent.
Unexpectedly, the old man had seen through it.
“It seems I guessed right.”
Du Huai’s eyes grew dark, and he slapped Tan Yaozong’s face with his hand.
Tan Yaozong tumbled, his head crashing hard against the ground, crying out as he begged for rcy, “Master, I’m telling the truth, why don’t you believe ?”
Du Huai coldly snorted, “Enough, your little tricks can’t fool .
My sect specializes in capturing human souls.
I can sense your true thoughts even with my eyes closed.”
“What?”
Tan Yaozong was stunned, not expecting the old man to have this skill.
He yelled out in tears, “Heavens, why am I so unlucky.
If you want revenge against Long Fei, go grab his dad, grab his mom, why grab ?
Even if you kill , it won’t affect him in the slightest!”
Du Huai cursed fiercely, “Shut up, you spineless fool.
With that cowardly behavior, you still dare to think about cultivating with ?
Keeping you is useless, I might as well kill you and save the food.”
He harbored killing intent, deciding there was no way he could let Tan Yaozong go.
If this kid shared even the slightest connection with Long Fei, he would surely be a pitfall to him, leading to a loss greater than the gain.
He called his disciples and had them hang Tan Yaozong up with ropes, suspending him over Cold Pond like a butchered pig.
The icy coldness of Cold Pond, the re chill was enough to make Tan Yaozong shiver with fear, screaming out, “Old man, aren’t you being too excessive?
When have I ever begged others like this?
You’re senselessly killing people without distinguishing right from wrong, sooner or later you’ll get your retribution.”
The old man coldly huffed, “It’s your bad luck, shouting louder does you no good.
Beneath Cold Pond, lives our sect’s Sect Guardian Beast, which needs to eat a young boy every day.
When midnight cos, it will co out to hunt.
Then, when you beco the al in its belly, let’s see how you call out.”
“Damn you, I’m not a young boy!”
Tan Yaozong was almost in tears, staring at the human-shaped bones around Cold Pond, understanding now their origin.
This old man was indeed too malicious.
At this mont, a thunderous boom suddenly ca from the valley, causing the ground here to tremble along with it.
Disciples outside ran over anxiously, shouting to Du Huai, “Elder, it’s bad, soone has broken in.”
The periter of Yin Ghost Sect was protected by a Formation.
The mont the person arrived and stepped down, the Formation was broken, nearly scaring the disciple witless.
Du Huai raised his eyebrows, “Could it be that kid has chased us here?”
He glanced at Tan Yaozong with a sidelong eye and roared, “And you said you have nothing to do with him?”
“Long Fei has co?”
“Is he here to save ?”
“Heavens, am I so important in his heart?”
Tan Yaozong was self-indulgently delighted, glaring at the infuriated old man while hurling back insults, “You old thing, my big brother has co to save .
If you know what’s good for you, you’ll release right now.
Speak a few good words on your behalf, and my big brother might even spare your dog life.”
At this mont, he had turned into a tough guy.
“Thief, I will kill you now, let’s see how he can save you.”
Du Huai, driven mad with fury, held a black Long Banner in one hand and unfurled it, and with whimpers inside, out ca the shapes of Skull Heads, rushing to engulf Tan Yaozong.
Tan Yaozong struggled frantically against the ropes, cursing, “You old thing, you’re utterly dishonorable.
Didn’t you say you were going to feed to the Divine Beast?”
Before he finished speaking, the black Skull Heads opened their huge mouths, ready to bite down on him.
But suddenly, with a booming sound, a burst of fire shot into the sky before their eyes.
Long Fei and his party appeared, and two disciples, frightened, yelled, “Who are you, daring to trespass the Yin Ghost Sect!”
They were holding a porcelain jar, inside of which housed the little ghosts they raised.
Without a word, the two pulled off the red cloth on top and released a black fog at Long Fei and his companions.
Long Fei raised his hand, and a red light spiraled out.
With a ‘puff’, the black fog scattered, giving rise to a white vapor.
The two disciples burst like waterlons, turning into misty blood, less significant than ants.
Long Fei snorted lightly, “Devious creatures, how many people have you hard here?”
Walking all this way, even their old neighbors, masters from the Tai Chi Sect, followed with trepidation.
Bones were scattered all over the valley, n and won, as well as children.
Without having to think, one could see that it was these people from deviant sects who had done the killing.
Zhang Xuan’er, too, was angry and without waiting for Long Fei’s command, charged at the other disciples.
Du Huai, holding the black banner in one arm, fell back in retreat, yelling, “You brat, you’ve gone too far.
To sever my arm and storm into my front hall, do you really think the Yin Ghost Sect is easy to bully?”
Long Fei stared at him, coldly saying, “You’ve hard too many people, this is your karma, no one else to bla.
Even if you die today, you cannot atone for your sins.”
“Good, very good.
Since you press so desperately, let us perish together then!”
Du Huai took a deep breath, conjured a knife with one hand, and slashed his wrist, letting his fresh blood drip into the Cold Pond.
At the sa ti, muttering under his breath, he shouted loudly, “Sect Guardian Beast, drink my fresh blood, kill these intruders!”
Suddenly, a whirlpool stirred within the tranquil Cold Pond.
A muffled roar ca from within, sounding as if a monster were about to erge.
Tan Yaozong, terrified, scread, “Ghosts, ghosts are coming out.
Brother Long, Elder Long, please hurry and save !”
Sixth Master Tan also called out anxiously, “Brother Long, quickly save my nephew.”
Cold winds ca sweeping in, Du Huai’s hair flying wildly, he flailed his single arm, bellowing like a man possessed, “Divine Beast, co forth, kill these mortals who despise you, make them kneel and crawl before your mouth…”
