The construction in front of him was several times larger than the Green Willow Residence. Though it was called the Crimson Blood Devil’s Palace, it was extremely beautiful. There were multiple buildings and foliage everywhere. It was very much similar to the places where large families or elegant scholars resided.

Long Chen observed at the entrance for a long while. With Lingxi’s sensing abilities, he quickly found a way to enter the Crimson Blood Devil’s Palace. It was very simple. All he needed to do was to show his Crimson Tablet and then report the name of the proctor he was under.

“Huangtian, under Proctor Zhoutai.”

The four guards at the door were at the peak of the ninth dragon vein. Though Long Chen was multiple times more powerful than them, he did not dare let down his guard.

Nodding, he took his Crimson Tablet from one of them and entered the Crimson Blood Devil’s Palace.

“There are probably shifts for those guards at the door, so they don’t know Huangtian. However, there might be someone who knows him, so I have to be careful.”

Having this in mind, Long Chen strolled around the gigantic Crimson Blood Devil’s Sect. Of course, he tried his best to feign and keep with his ident.i.ty as someone of the Crimson Blood Sacred Sect.

As the Crimson Blood Sacred Sect were preparing for the major Blood Sacrificial Ceremony, followers would all return to the Crimson Blood Devil’s Palace in order to witness this significant moment. Hence, it was very lively within the palace.

It was evident that those who entered the Crimson Blood Sacred Sect were generally ruthless and introverted. Hence, while it was lively, there weren’t people linking arms or throwing their arms around others’ shoulders, which actually made things easier for Long Chen.

Long Chen calmly meandered around the palace, hoping to find out more information regarding the underground city but to no avail.

“Looks like I’ll have to be more daring.”

While the Crimson Blood Devil’s Palace was big, Long Chen went through the area in a short period of time, finally halting in the hall of the Devil’s Palace. At this moment, a burly man walked to his side and gazed upon him with suspicion for a while, “Kid, you look very unfamiliar. Are you new to the sect?”

Long Chen had already prepared himself for such a situation. Huangtian had only entered the sect not too long ago, so Long Chen did not hesitate, “It hasn’t even been a month since I entered.”

The man chuckled, “I imagine you haven’t experienced the blood bath yet, right? The feeling when cultivating in the blood bath really brings up fond memories for me. Honestly though, kid, you’re really lucky to be able to enjoy the blood bath when you’ve only just entered the sect!”

Giving Long Chen a few heavy pats on the back and seeing the resulting grimace on Long Chen’s face, the burly man laughed brightly and left.

However, the moment he left, Long Chen’s expression of misery dissipated.

“There’s no use in my wandering around here. There are lesser people at night, so I should wait till then to investigate, which is probably more effective. If I wander about like this, they might get a hold on me.”

In the Crimson Blood Devil’s Palace, everyone had a residence. However, Long Chen could not go to where Huangtian stayed. The sky was gradually darkening, and he found a corner to conceal himself. As night fell, lesser people were out and about.

“The sect leader stays in the Blood Pavilion here. I imagine I’d need to enter the Blood Pavilion to find out information regarding the underground city. If I’m not wrong, the entrance to the underground city should be in the pavilion!”

Having made his mind, Long Chen proceeded towards Blood Pavilion.

Blood Pavilion was right smack in the centre of the Devil’s Palace and was a sealed courtyard. Usually, only important people of the Crimson Blood Sacred Sect were allowed entry, so the closer he got to the pavilion, Long Chen found that there were lesser people pa.s.sing by.

Soon enough, Long Chen saw a building that was completely red. From afar, a malicious aura emanated from the Blood Pavilion.

“The sect leader is at the Earth Dan Realm. If I rashly charge in, not only would I find it difficult to retreat, I might even harm Lingqing as well! I’ll need a plan.”

Long Chen furrowed his brows and gazed at the crimson building from the corner he was hiding in, silent.

“There is indeed an Earth Dan Realm cultivator in there, as well as five cultivators at the perfect mastery stage at the Human Dan Realm.”

Lingxi warned him worriedly.

This situation was very troublesome, with a cultivator at the Earth Dan Realm and five at the perfect mastery stage at the Human Dan Realm. Long Chen was merely at the initial mastery stage at the Human Dan Realm and still had a mission to save Yang Lingqing.

“d.a.m.n it! If those people approach me, I’ll make sure they get it from me!” Long Chen’s expression darkened as he gritted out.

“Someone’s here…” With Lingxi’s whispered warning, Long Chen quickly hid himself. Soon after, three shadows sneakily crept towards the Blood Pavilion. From their physique, it seemed like there was one woman and two men.

“Long Chen, they must have snuck in as well.”

Long Chen knew this without Lingxi having to point it out. After all, the Crimson Blood Sacred Sect had caused a huge ruckus after kidnapping a large number of young girls. There were sure to be many who harboured a hatred for them.
