Volume 2, Chapter 54 -- The Blood Soul Phantom, the Three Parties Gathered Again
The cultivator in the blood-colored robe crossed his hands behind his back. He shook his head and spoke in a disdainful manner beneath his contempt. Then, his vision s.h.i.+fted as he said with an indifferent tone, “Junior, I have something more important to manage, so I won't fight with your witty tongue. There are still 5 days left before the Sea Eye of your Azure Ocean Sect reopens again. So I hope that you will still be alive to go out until then.”
After having said that, his vision intentionally glanced toward Zhang Yan's hiding location as his hands moved back and forth on his back.
The Blood Soul Sect's disciples immediately spiritedly shouted, ”Master has given the command, let's draw back!”
The other Blood Soul Sect's disciples in the surrounding did not hesitate upon hearing this. They released their devices and turned away to leave.
But the cultivator in the blood-colored robe was still standing motionless. After there were no more Blood Soul Sect's disciples in the surrounding, he glanced deeply at Zhang Yan's direction as a blood-colored light then flashed and his figure disappeared.
Fang Zhen was secretly relieved when he saw that the Blood Soul was finally gone.
Although he spoke lightly, that Blood Soul unexpectedly was able to shake off his Five Rings Flame Divine Weapon with only one strike. That Blood Soul was a level more powerful compared to the previous one from last time. He could tell that he did not have any miniscule chance to win in a fight against him. For Fang Zhen this time, it was the best outcome.
From the higher ground, Zhang Yan, who stood there, had been tightly staring at the blood-colored robe cultivator from the beginning. He could see that the man's vision did not flinch, and he did that intentionally.
The reason as to why that cultivator did that, was because he knew well he had the superior and dominant advantage. So there was no reason for him to easily retreat. Certainly, that cultivator had other reasons, or perhaps, that blood-colored robed cultivator was bluffing.
He deliberately provoked Zhang Yan secretly, as he wanted to know and see his reaction.
Until that blood-colored robed cultivator retreated, Zhang Yan became more certain that his judgment was correct.
Upon seeing that those cultivators from the Blood Soul Sect were all retreating together, he regretfully shook his head. It was very unfortunate that the one who stood underneath was Fang Zhen and not Xie Zongyuan. If it was him, he would have recommended to act immediately and hit those Blood Soul Sect's disciples hard, giving them heavy losses.
When he thought about it, he also thought to himself that today's situation happened because he lacked the ability. It was clear that he was not strong enough to the degree that he could fight dozens of Blood Soul Sect's disciples.
If at the moment, he were a Profound Light Realm cultivator, would he even have to be concerned so much about himself? He could exterminate that group of disciples with only a wave of his hand. From this, it could be seen that the fundament of everything was but only strength.
In the field, with a slightly hesitating expression, Feng Ming looked at Fang Zhen and said, ”Senior Brother Fang, since those people from the Blood Soul Sect have retreated, I think we might as well go contact Senior Brother Xie first, as we need to discuss the next step and prepare countermeasures to deal with the situation.”
Fang Zhen grunted as he reluctantly nodded with a slightly dissatisfied expression, ”Yes, we can only do so.”
After the blood-colored robed cultivator had brought the numerous disciples out for 100 miles away, only then did he stop at high ground as though he was waiting for someone.
Shortly after, a blood-colored light flashed and landed on the ground afterward, showing the figure of Senior Brother Li.
However, he was not alone, he brought along with him two people at his left and right side. At the moment, he came in the front of the cultivator in the blood-colored robe and knelt, ”Master, this one fortunately hasn't failed this one's mission, and I've brought that person with me.”
A trace of a happy expression surfaced on the face of the cultivator in the blood-colored robe. He nodded as his vision fell on a young cultivator at the left side behind Senior Brother Li. Then, he spoke with a happy expression, ”You are that Han Ji, from the Pure Cloud's Han Family?”
Han Ji quickly came forward and respectfully saluted and bowed, ”Replying to Senior, this one is precisely that Han Ji.”
The cultivator in the blood-colored robe looked at him and said with a smile, ”Good, you are really handsome and intelligent. My Blood Soul Sect has always opened our doors widely. Since you want to wors.h.i.+p me as your Master, I will not refuse you who have traveled from the thousands of miles away.”
A happy expression surfaced on Han Ji's face as he immediately knelt on the ground and said, ”Disciple sees the Respected Master!”
Upon seeing his gesture and expression which was without hesitation or reluctance, he nodded with a satisfied expression and said, ”You don't need to give so much ceremony. I'll receive you to be my in-name disciple first. After you have met my true body, then you can have an official apprentices.h.i.+p ceremony. How about it?”
Han Ji said, ”Ah? This one gives all the arrangements to the Respected Master.”
The person who stood at the right side of the Senior Brother Li happily said, ”Respected Master, I feel like I've been an old friend with Junior Brother Han the first time I saw him. Apart from his desire to study in our sect, he's also willing to offer a Profound Blood Pill. I think we might as well immediately take care of this matter and not delay this.”
Senior Brother Li knitted his brows and scolded, ”Li Weimin, it's Master's questioning, why did you open your mouth and interrupt? Shut up and get back!”
Li Weimin ignored him and only let out a careless smile, as if he did not put his reprimand to heart.
The cultivator in the blood-colored robe waved his hand as he said with a smile, ”It's alright. Weimin has done a good merit, so you don't need to blame him.”
Senior Brother Li promptly lowered his head as his name was called.
“Well, come here.” The cultivator in the blood-colored robe called Senior Brother Li as the latter understood and approached a few steps, speaking in a low voice, ”What kind of instruction does Master have?”
