Chapter 1040: Foot of the Mountain
Translator: Yukidaruma Translations Editor: Yukidaruma Translations
At a mountain cliff that was approximately 50 lis or so away from Serene Mountain, Fei Li—who was dressed in emerald-green clothes—looked at the man in blood red clothes with great feelings of love and admiration.
The man was the Blood River Path’s leader, Blood Sea—a heaven-blessed cultivator who had unified six paths in the Demon Sect.
Fei Li looked at this god-like man, feeling that the aura he emitted had become increasingly deep and unfathomable ever since he came out from his seclusion. It was like the Gang Qis that were high up beyond the heavens, giving others a distant feeling like one would never be able to come into contact with it.
Right now, Blood Sea was standing at the mountain cliff. His eyes had turned into crimson vortexes, shooting out a blood red glow continuously. They were just like crimson-red gemstones.
As he looked at the Serene Mountain in the distance that was like a black dragon groveling on the ground, there seemed to be a hint of anticipation in his eyes.
Behind the two people, there were rows of the Blood River Path’s disciples. They were half-kneeling, looking at the figure—who was right at the very front—with nothing but respect and admiration in their gazes.
After going through 300 years of separation, the Sacred Sect’s seven paths were finally going to be unified in the hands of this man once again. At the thought of how this great accomplishment would be completed by their hands, uncontrollably agitated expressions flashed non-stop in their eyes.
They looked at Blood Sea with gazes that were becoming increasing filled to the brim with respect and admiration.
At that moment, an Elder walked up next to Blood Sea and said softly, “Sir Asura has sent the latest news that things have been settled with the Desolate Era Path. Based on the timing, they’ll probably arrive at the agreed location very soon.”
“Alright.” Blood Sea nodded. There seemed to be a bit of nonchalance in his tone as if the Desolate Era Path’s submission was unable to excite him.
Fei Li asked puzzledly, “Sir, do we really need to wait for Heavenly Yaksha and the others to arrive? With your strength…”
“Zhao Yinglan is, after all, nominally the strongest expert to have emerged during the last 20 years in our Sacred Sect’s seven paths.” There seemed to be waves seething in Blood Sea’s eyes, producing hints of blood colored ripples. “So, of course, I’ll need to all out in order to deal with her. This is a form of respect to the strong. I only hope that she won’t disappoint me.”
At the next moment, he looked toward the young lady and asked, “Fei Li, how’s the recent situation in the central?”
Right now, the world was in chaos, and Blood Sea wanted to unify the Demon Sect so that he could make use of the Demon Sect’s powers to get involved in this chaotic situation. He was even thinking of taking over the central and assuming that supreme position.
Fei Li gave it some thought and said, “Ever since the imperial court defeated Prince Xin, they have been recovering lost land in the north. The remaining feudal vassals, the three Princes in the south, and that rebel Liang Bo are all lying low. The other smaller rebel armies don’t have the capability to affect the situation. Everyone is accumulating powers, and nothing major has happened.”
“Haha, I didn’t expect that the imperial court would still have the powers to retaliate despite being in such a situation.” The corners of Blood Sea’s lips curled up into a faint smile. “After I’ve unified the Sacred Sect, I’ll have to go meet that legendary female general.”
Blood Sea was very interested in that female general who was said to be beautiful as a fairy and had defeated Prince Xin. There were even rumors saying that she had defeated Tiangang Realm experts from the Three Mountains Four Peaks.
Fei Li’s expression revealed a hint of hesitation, and Blood Sea seemed to sense that. He asked, “What other matters are there? Just say it.”
