Chapter 523 (2/2)

”Hehe, looks like he still hasn't forgotten his master,” said Devouring Ghost with a sneer. ”I had founded the Ghostface Sect. Back then, the master had just arrived at this Bloodsin City. As I had needed to follow the master around, I had left the Ghostface Sect in the hands of Green Ghost. Back then, he had the worst prospects among all my disciples. He did well to preserve the sect until today. I even thought he was long dead.”

”I see. He wishes to see you,” said Xiang Shaoyun.

”I had expected this to happen the moment I gave you the command medallion. Young master, to reclaim your family estate, the Ghostface Sect will be a decent helper. I will ensure they obey your every command,” said Devouring Ghost.

”We can talk about that later. Go and meet Green Ghost. I wonder if he can still recognize you,” said Xiang Shaoyun.

”He dares to forget me?” said Devouring Ghost imposingly.

”With your current strength, it's better to control your temper. Your disciple is very different from the past. He is now a monster who has lived for 10,000 years. I reckon he has even surpa.s.sed the Sovereign Realm,” said Xiang Shaoyun.

”Yes, you're right, young master. I will act accordingly,” said Devouring Ghost with a nod.

”Let's continue the talk after leaving this place,” said Xiang Shaoyun.

”Wait a moment, young master. I need to bring a treasure with me,” said Devouring Ghost with a proud smile.

After saying that, he dashed away and quickly returned with someone who looked exactly the same as him following behind him. This person's entire body was red, and his eyes were filled with bloodthirst, giving off a sinister feeling.

Xiang Shaoyun asked with shock, ”I-is this a blood demon?”

”Yes, he's my blood demon clone!” introduced Devouring Ghost with excitement.

”Your blood demon clone? What do you mean?” Xiang Shaoyun asked.

He had obtained a blood egg from the Dong Clan that was subsequently given to Devouring Ghost. The blood demons were an extremely sinister species that could only grow through devouring a great amount of blood. The numerous races viewed them as vermin that everyone should kill. However, a mature blood demon possessed extremely terrifying combat prowess and wasn't easy to destroy.

”A blood demon has always been capable of countless transformations. While in the egg, he has been fed with my blood and soul power. Gradually, he became my blood demon clone, and he will only obey me. More importantly, he is alive and can continue growing, unlike a puppet,” said Devouring Ghost.

”I see. Are you going to bring him out just like this?” Xiang Shaoyun asked.

”Why not? I only need to dress him up for a bit, and people won't recognize him for what he is. After I restore half my original strength, I won't even need to worry that others will discover him anymore,” said Devouring Ghost confidently.

”Well, it's good that you know to exercise caution. But I'm quite curious. What abilities does this blood demon have?” asked Xiang Shaoyun.

”The greatest ability of a blood demon is the ability to stay alive so long as a single drop of blood remains,” said Devouring Ghost. As he said that, he turned and ripped an arm off the blood demon. The blood demon did not make a single sound. Noiselessly, a new arm grew out.

”Transform,” Devouring Ghost commanded.

The blood demon instantly transformed into a puddle of blood that rippled everywhere, looking like an ordinary puddle of blood that was flowing around randomly instead of a living being. Soon, the blood rea.s.sembled and reformed into a blood demon. Xiang Shaoyun watched on with eyes wide open. He finally realized how terrifying the blood demons were.
