Chapter 970: Forbidden Zone (1/2)

For the next three days, the team was split up. This time Sam also went alone, despite being the weakest of them all.

They stayed near different properties that were not attacked and waited for them to be attacked.

And the first attack coincidentally happened at the place Sia is camping. She stayed completely out of range and managed to get a glimpse of the route Sark took.

After the dust settled and the initial search trials from the soldiers, the injured were being moved to the camps at the city gates to get the treatment.

Sia waited for the chaos to settle down a bit and finally sneaked into the path.

But as soon as she entered that path, she halted in her tracks and turned around.

A man is standing on top of the tree looking at her.

”Seems like someone else is after this Sark. Don't bother, the Azure Blood demon family already noticed this, you wouldn't get any reward even if you try to find him at the moment.”

She just stayed silent and looked at him calmly. He is an Azure blood demon. It seems like their team is not as quick as they want to be. Sam wanted to find out where this route is leading to and find the hiding  spot of Sark.

But from the looks of it, the Azure Blood demon family already thought of this possibility, they might be a bit later than they should have been.

”If you found him, you wouldn't be standing here.” Sia said after some thought.

”Well, I just discovered this route he was taking and we all know where this leads from here, so technically I found it. Now, I am sorry that your reward dreams might have been crashed like this, but it is your fate, so accept.

So, get out while I am still in a good mood, otherwise something untoward might happen to you.”

As soon as he finished his words, Sia made her move, she disappeared from the spot and within a second she is already climbing the tree like a coiling black snake and before he could react, she stabbed a knife in his throat.

”You should have stayed silent.” With that she slashed the throat and killed him in a second and threw him into the storage and ran towards the special rendezvous they prepared earlier.

First she reached an open spot and lit up a stick Sam gave them. This is a flare. As soon as she lit it up, it flew upwards and exploded like a fire cracker with a large eye-catching explosion that could be seen from all over the mountain. From every corner without any problem.

But this  also attracts the attention of the demon family.

So, Sia ran back to their residence.

This is merely a signal for everyone to return to the residence to discuss something important.

After a few hours, everyone returned back to the residence where Sia is also waiting.

”The Azure Blood demon family already suspected about these special routes, there is a guy who stayed out of the range of the attack and spotted Sark's escape.

When I was about to follow Sark, I had an encounter with him and I killed him.”

She waved her hand and let the body out. Sam immediately activated a bunch of concealment formations.

As he looked at the demon's body, two bloodlines in his body are riling up. First one is Raiju Bloodline which might be the result of the lightning element present inside its body.

And the Vampire bloodline which might be the result of the blood of the demon.

He suddenly felt like he found the next source for his cultivation. The Solar fragments he got from that encounter are still present. The only reason he still stopped is that Yanwu has to consolidate his body a bit and is now going slower than before in consuming them.

At first he thought those bodies would be enough for late Stage Initiation breakthrough, but to his dismay, he came short of it and since the breakthrough wouldn't happen instantly they decided to slow down the consumption and let themselves grow steadily.

Now it seems like Raiju might have a similar effect from these Azure Blood demons because of the lightning presence and he might increase his cultivation by absorbing the blood.
