453 Grand Duke (2/2)

”Chris, you shut your mouth!” Gurap coldly glared at the marquis named Chris. Then, he said expressionlessly, ”Please watch your words and actions. Mr. Ferrade is a Duke of the Blood Kindred. Moreover, he is actually a Grand Duke, who is on his way to becoming a Lord. Hence, there is no room for your disrespect. If you have anything to say, you can speak when we have returned to the Blood world. But here, you must be cautious of your words, or else they will get you in trouble.”

Upon hearing this, Chris froze. He finally sensed that his words had not been appropriate. Thus, he kept a straight face and shut his mouth from then on.

”This matter has still not been discussed with Mr. Ferrade. As such, the few of us have insufficient capabilities to find the Divine Blood in the primeval ancestral land,” another marquis of the Blood Kindred said.

As they were the Blood Kindred that had come from the Blood world, they had no forces present in the primeval ancestral land. Hence, they were all alone and without support. If Ferrade refused to help them, they would not be able to activate most of the Blood Kindred in the primeval ancestral land.

After a discussion amongst a few of the marquises, they came to a combined decision to approach the Grand Duke, Ferrade, for help.

”What should we do with him?” Just before leaving, a Marquis looked at Masri and asked the question.

”Kill him!” Gurap said instantly.

”No. You noblemen… My father is a part of the Demon Gods Alliance…” Masri shook his head in fright. However, before he could even complete his sentence, a ray of Blood light shone down from the skies and directly melted his body within it!

”Anyone who knows about the Blood Ancestor's Divine Blood must die.” Gurap only left this one sentence before his body morphed into a Blood light and he disappeared into the distance in the blink of an eye. A few other Blood Kindred also turned into Blood lights, one after the other, before they all disappeared into thin air.

Gu Jingman toured Shen Jing all around Kagoshima for a couple of days. She had also already arranged for an underground fight with the Yamaguchi-gumi.

An underground fight in the underworld was very simple. Both parties would send out a few people, who would fight it out to determine their rankings via a challenge ring. What was interesting is that there were no specific rules involved in underground fights.

As such, one could use any technique at all. They could even kill their opponents! In a nutshell, every trick in the book could be used!

The two competing parties in this particular underground fight were Hua Xia Country's Hua Dong region's five major underworld influences and the Yamaguchi-gumi's Shen Province. Although it was just a portion of the Yamaguchi-gumi, they were very capable. Previously, even Gu Jingman did not have much confidence in facing such an opposing force, which was why she had gone to look for Mo Wen.

After all, the Yamaguchi-gumi had the Devil Saber-kai backing it! As such, it was difficult to ascertain whether or not the masters from the Devil Saber-kai would be invited to the fight.

Once they got to a certain stage, the underground fights would have some connections with mysterious influences. If there were no influences backing the fights, it was very difficult for the underground fights to expand.

Gu Jingman's Fei Ying Sect had the Gu Fort Clan backing it. The other four major underworld influences also had the shadows of ancient martial art powers.

This underground fight was located in a luxurious estate that was in a northern district of Kagoshima. It was a property that was owned by the Yamaguchi-gumi. The space was very big and had a huge grassy patch that was perfect for the fight.

At the moment, the areas surrounding the grassy patch had been set up with tables and chairs. The patch itself had been split into two sides. One side was for the Yamaguchi-gumi people, while the other side was for Hua Dong region's five major underworld influences.

Gu Jingman was seated on her chair and was drinking some tea quietly. Initially, she had planned to send Uncle Chen to the battle. However, now that she had Mo Wen, she naturally did not require Uncle Chen to take the risk. Although Uncle Chen's cultivation was rather high, there was still a very high risk should he battle the Yamaguchi-gumi, who had the backing of the Devil Saber-kai.

On the same side as her, sitting in the seat right beside her, a middle-aged man was wearing a Chinese tunic suit. It was none other than Jiang Guhuai.

He was the person at the helm of the Black Eagle Sect of the Hua Dong region. It was said that he had the backing of an aristocratic family. As such, he had always been very successful in the Hua Dong region. No matter how unstable the underworld got, he had always been able to maintain a stable and superior position.

Sitting on the other side of Gu Jingman was a middle-aged woman who was dressed luxuriously. Although she was not young, she was very beautiful. Clearly, she was very focused on maintaining her beauty, as her figure and aura were exceptional.

At a glance, the first impression she gave was that of a beautiful rich lady. However, she was not just a simple rich lady. She was the renowned boss of the Hua Dong region's underworld's Red Sparrow Gang. Although she was a woman, she still gained the respect of everyone she met.

Meanwhile, the other two major underworld influences were seated a couple of positions away from Gu Jingman. Their leaders were both middle-aged men who had rather great powers. Hence, together with Gu Jingman's Fei Ying Sect, they made up the five major influences.

”Lady boss, you weren't joking just now, weren't you? You sent him for this battle? Are you sure it's him?” Zheng Shuangshuang looked at Gu Jingman with an exaggerated expression. As she pointed one finger at Mo Wen, her entire expression was one of disbelief.

She couldn't believe that the lady boss had actually gotten pretty boy to go for the underground fight! Currently, she really did not know what the lady boss was even thinking!

Zheng Shuangshuang thought that even sending her up would have been a hundred times better than sending that pretty boy! Besides, she had always thought that the person participating in the underground fight should have been Uncle Chen, as only Uncle Chen had the adequate abilities needed.

”Just sit and watch! Stop butting in so much!” Gu Jingman chided her, while she continued to drink her tea and look exceptionally relaxed.
