Finally, Demonfreak geezer understood Tang Xiu’s intention. He knew that with the latter’s strength, killing him was easy. But he patiently said so much to him, even his subordinate explained some things to him while he waited patiently. It turned out that he wanted to make him submit to work for him in the future.
“I give you my word.”
The old devil knew the truth, that only those who acted according to circumstances would survive. He hadn’t had enough with living. Even with his current cultivation, he could only live for another century. It was better to live than to die, to begin with. Some freedom may be lost, but it was his best choice at present.
Tang Xiu paced forward, appeared before the Demonfreak geezer and lightly said, “Give up resistance and open your mind. I need to cast the Soul Ruling Art in your body. I’ll choose the time to unseal this control over you later in the future if you’re obedient and make contributions.”
“Alright.”
The old man looked like a gambler who had thrown his dice and stakes at this moment. He removed all his defenses as per Tang Xiu’s instruction and let him plant the Soul Ruling Art seed in his body.
“Hmm?!”
The instant Tang Xiu did it, the geezer’s heart trembled. He sensed a faint energy fluctuation in a hidden spot inside his heart. But due to that faint energy, he felt like there was a thread that connected him to Tang Xiu.
Tang Xiu then issued an order to stop the killing of Demonfreak’s men. Then, he lightly said, “I’m your boss from now on. I need you to work on something for the time being. Which is to find me those SOE people and the best genius of House Dolan, Angelo.”
A bit of awe could be seen in Demonfreak’s eyes. It was the kind of emotion directly caused by the influence of the soul contract. He gave Tang Xiu a deep look and said in a deep voice, “I have a way to contact Angelo, Boss. Just give me half a day and I’ll know where he is.”
Raising his brows, Tang Xiu shortly realized that Demonfreak geezer had spoken the truth before. His relationship with the SOE company and House Dolan was very likely to have more than met the eye.
“What exactly is your relationship with them?”
“The SOE company is my partner, and we have jointly founded a genetic research lab to secretly study the genes’ working mechanism.” The old man explained, “This Cadaveric Beast I’ve been raising has been injected by the strongest gene agent there was and I’ve been gradually improving its strength with my refining and tempering method. That’s why it ultimately has the power on par with an early-stage Golden Core cultivator now. Further, I’ve had a lot of cooperation with House Dolan, all of which pertain to silencing and neutralizing people and robbing them of their possessions. They gave payment—you can say it’s a salary—while I and Dao Master Poison were responsible to deal with things for them.”
“That’d be great.” Tang Xiu nodded. “You can win their trust because of this track record. It seems not killing today is the right choice. However, I can’t say the same with regard to your men. I’ll leave them to you to deal with. But you must remove any unreliable ones, for you yourself will be implicated should our relationship be exposed.”
The old devil pondered for a moment and nodded. “I got it, Boss.”
Having said that, his figure suddenly dove down and instantly came to his remaining dozen men. As he grasped a sharp dagger, an afterimage of his figure flashed and the big man in a black night suit held his throat and heart before he fell.
Of the tens of people, only 18 remained. But there was not the slightest fear on their faces upon witnessing Demonfreak’s killing. It was like the old devil killing them was a normal occurrence.
“All of you, draw back!”
Tang Xiu opened the entrance of the Bloodseed Array and watched as everyone left quickly disappeared from the array. His eyes looked around at the many pairs of eyes and then began concocting pills.
The battle was between the Ravengale and the Speeder, and then the old devil came with his men to fight the former… which turned out to be a fight against the Stygian Club’s people. In addition to the people ordered to be cleaned up by Tang Xiu’s order, the number of casualties exceeded 500.
Time passed by and three hours had elapsed in the blink of an eye.
When Tang Xiu’s figure appeared outside the Bloodseed Array, it was as if the whole world turned quiet.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
Figures moved lightning-fast from the distance and rushed toward Tang Xiu in an instant. Most of them had longing looks and a few had an inquiry on their faces upon seeing Tang Xiu.
Tang Xiu let out a vague smile and immediately deactivated the Bloodseed Array. 12 Sanguine Pills were floating in front of the Speeder’s HQ building as he instantly collected them all.
