Someone took out a bowl half-filled ater, and a pointed cone Gu Shenwei used the latter one to stick his ten fingers, letting his blood drop into the bohich indicated the “blood connection” Afterward, the boas sent out, and there was less water than before, which meant the master had drank from the bowl and had dripped his blood inside it

Gu Shenwei drank it all Now he becauan Nu Anyone anted to kill hiuan Nu first, othewise, one had to kill him in a very secretive manner

After a hundred years, the blood oath ceremony had been simplified a lot A first, the killer and the ether and swore by the eneer their oath would be After that, a series of co a new killer would take several days or even months

However, as there were more and more killers, the blood oath had beco Masters to expand their forces

The reason Gu Shenwei knew this was because he spent nearly athe books that were covered with a thick layer of dust

One could never read through all the books in Archives Library, there ay too ht Gu Shenwei on what to select was Zhang Ji, as teaching at school

During this boring and dull month, Gu Shenwei learned the history of Golden Roc Fort, and found out Zhang Ji was right: Most of the nu action attempts had shared the sa had oncea similar method
