Chapter 776 - The Dragon Saber’s Consciousness (1/2)

Lester’s words woke up most of the veterans. They were indeed the Sucking Blood Clan, also known as vampires. Since both sides were hostile towards each other, weren’t the people from the clan asking a human’s advice on cultivation practices something that would cause a huge issue?

“That makes sense. Thank god, Lester is a lot calmer and steadier. We’re really muddleheaded.”

“That’s right. Our eagerness to break through the bottleneck and reach the level of Martial Venerable has caused us to forget that we are from the Sucking Blood Clan.”

“If we seek advice on cultivation practices from that big shot there, we might bring huge trouble for us that might even wipe out the Sucking Blood Clan.”

All the veterans nodded their heads and realized that Lester’s words made perfect sense. At the same time, they broke into cold sweats thinking about the idea they had earlier.

“He’s just a Martial Saint. With enough time, I’m sure I can reach that level as well. And, when that time comes, it’ll be our Sucking Blood Clan’s turn to rise,” Louis confidently said, rubbing the tip of his nose with his thumb.

“Too much confidence is arrogance!” Grand Patriarch reprimanded without hesitation.

Louis was a little upset deep down but didn’t have the guts to answer back.

Lester asked, “How’s Little Sister?”

“I’ve sent her to the blood pool. Her injuries will heal really quickly soaking in it.”

Louis replied with an evil-looking face, “I’ll bring some people with me later and make sure I bring back those two fat pigs that slipped through the net. I’ll make them suffer and make sure they neither live nor die!”

“You can’t!” Lester shouted, raising his hand.

“Why not?” Louis’s face was filled with confusion.

Lester looked into the sky. “It is a matter of great uncertainty that a Martial Saint entered the Dark Forest. If not handled properly, this might cause an extremely big problem for the clan. We’ll stop wandering around the Dark Forest the next few days, and it’s best if we don’t leave Mu City either. We’ll wait for the big shot to leave before doing anything else.”

“That’s right. From today, everyone from the clan is not allowed outside. Stay in Mu City. You’re not allowed to go anywhere!” Grand Patriarch agreed. It was obvious that he was worried Louis’ tactlessness would anger the big shot.

“We’re going to let those two fat pigs off easily?”

Louis was really angry, especially towards Xiao Luo who he detested to the core. He could barely explain how pissed off he was that they were letting him off so easily.

“We’ll have to let them go for sure. There’s no need to take any sort of risk for two preys like that!”

Lester said in a tone that made it hard for anyone to defy him, “Second Brother, this time you better listen to me and Grand Patriarch’s decision. Otherwise, you can’t blame me if I ignore the fact that we’re brothers, understood?”

“Alright. I’ll listen to you.”

Louis might say that, but he was extremely unwilling to let them go. He gritted his teeth and clenched his fist as he looked into the distant sky.

…

When Xiao Luo was done practicing, the huge spiritual energy vortex slowly dissipated as well. The air between heaven and earth slowly returned to its normal flow from a solidified state.

He opened his eyes and looked into the far distance, making his vision reach even further, so far in fact that he could clearly spot an ant crawling on a tree roughly 500 meters away. He could even see the entire process of him using his senses to exchange information with the ant.

He could also hear a lot more. If he wanted to, he could even hear the sound of a mosquito flapping its wings from over 10 meters away.
