Chapter 1737

Actually, the Red-Eyed Corpse General was quite nervous; this senior brother treated him well and had helped him a lot before. Being able to become a Corpse General was largely thanks to the help of the Second Corpse General. In the previous incident, the Red-Eyed Corpse General simply fled and did not stay to rescue this senior brother; he has kept this in mind.

"Junior brother, no matter what, senior brother's recovery is thanks to you." The Second Corpse General acknowledged his gratitude; this time, without the Red-Eyed Corpse General's help, he might need a long time to complete the transformation, and could very well fail, dying for sure.

Whether flesh and blood or various resources, they were all sent by the Red-Eyed Corpse General; this great kindness of rebirth, the Second Corpse General naturally cannot forget, and cannot but express it.

"Senior brother, don't say that; as long as you don't blame the junior brother for abandoning you last time, that's fine." The Red-Eyed Corpse General spoke generously, and at the same time wanted to see what the senior brother thought, what his attitude was.

Upon hearing this, the Second Corpse General understood what the Red-Eyed Corpse General was worried about, and waved his hand: "Junior brother, I don't blame you; given that situation, not only you, but even if the senior brother encountered it, he would turn and flee; a step slower means death."

Besides, what you did wasn't abandoning the senior brother; it was to save your own life.

The Red-Eyed Corpse General, hearing this, was deeply moved: "Senior brother, bottom line, the junior brother didn't bring you along when he fled; the junior brother was terrified."

The Second Corpse General patted his shoulder and comforted him: "Alright, senior brother doesn't hold that against you; anyone in that situation would run; you needn't blame yourself, and senior brother doesn't blame you either."

If you had stayed there, you might already be dead, and I, the senior brother, couldn't have recovered either; all of this is fate, and you truly need not worry.

In that situation, even he would flee without hesitation; he couldn't possibly stay to sacrifice himself.

Whether one dies or two die together, it's clear: that situation doesn't mean the Red-Eyed Corpse General could defeat the enemy yet abandoned him, letting him die; at that point, he was already as good as dead, and staying would only doom both of them.

Besides, without them drawing attention, he couldn't have escaped either.

No matter what, senior brother must thank you; this time, senior brother's recovery is thanks to you, Red-Eyed junior brother. Senior brother promises you that as long as you don't betray him afterward, he will always look after you; when that time comes, we two will control the Corpse Refining Sect, and senior brother will make you the Corpse King.

The First Corpse General, Jiang Tiansheng, is dead; the Sect Master is unreliable, single-mindedly focused on his Corpse-Producing Lotus; this is our two brothers' opportunity.

Corpse-Producing Lotus? The Red-Eyed Corpse General's pupils contracted as he stared at the Second Corpse General.

Second Corpse General Feng Luoyue nodded and said: "Not bad; the Sect Master's thoughts have always been on the Corpse-Producing Lotus; for thousands of years he has been cultivating it, so he entrusts all major and minor sect affairs to Jiantiansheng; do you really think the Sect Master truly trusts Jiang Tiansheng?"

No, he has been using Jiang Tiansheng because Jiang Tiansheng can help him do some dirty work, continually gathering various sacrificial offerings for him to cultivate the Corpse-Producing Lotus.

The Corpse-Producing Lotus has been cultivated for over a thousand years and is likely nearing maturity; with Jiang Tiansheng dead, the Sect Master will surely act personally, and at that point we several Corpse Generals will be in danger.

Red-Eyed junior brother, we both need to prepare early; either we kill the Sect Master and take control of the Corpse Refining Sect, then we brothers will split the Corpse-Producing Lotus evenly—how about that?

Gurgle. The Red-Eyed Corpse General couldn't process it; the news was too shocking. He had always thought Jiang Tiansheng was trusted by the Sect Master because of a special relationship between them, even suspecting Jiang Tiansheng might be the Sect Master's son.

Who would have thought there were so many secrets hidden here.

The Red-Eyed Corpse General raised his head and asked: "Senior brother, how did you come to know this news? Logically, they wouldn't tell you such a secret; the more people who know, the greater the danger."

Moreover, they might even treat you as a sacrificial offering; it's very likely the entire Corpse Refining Sect is just livestock, and from the start we have been the food they raised.

To cultivate the Corpse-Producing Lotus, we need more Corpse Generals; a Corpse King would be best.

Thinking of this, the Red-Eyed Corpse General couldn't help but feel his scalp tingle; he once again sensed the horror of the Corpse Refining Sect—his former self had simply been too naive.

It's not that they told me; they wouldn't. I know because I once noticed a clue, seeing Jiang Tiansheng secretly send several elders' corpses to the Sect Master, along with their coffins; later I investigated and found that all those elders in the sect had been sacrificed by them.

Furthermore, some fallen seniors have all become sacrificial offerings; the Corpse Refining Sect is now just an empty shell, all its former foundation gone, and soon they will turn their gaze toward us few.

Red-Eyed junior brother, nowadays the Corpse Refining Sect cannot capture sacrificial offerings from outside, so the disciples inside the sect will become the offerings.

Tian Du Men and the Dust Accumulation Sect have joined forces against the Corpse Refining Sect, also allying with the Mangshan Demon Palace; it's obvious they aim to destroy the Corpse Refining Sect.

And those two of them are now in danger.

Outside are the terrifying strong ones of Tian Du Men, the Dust Accumulation Sect, and the Mangshan Demon Palace eyeing them like tigers; inside is the Sect Master's deadly gaze, and they could become sacrificial offerings at any moment.

Besieged from inside and out, they cannot escape; they had just fled from death, only to face this situation again.

The Red-Eyed Corpse General realized his mind couldn't cope; he had heard an astonishing secret.

Senior brother, you wouldn't be trying to scare me, would you? This is truly unbelievable; the Sect Master, for his own selfish gain, would not hesitate to sacrifice the entire sect.

This secret is too shocking; if it got out, the Corpse Refining Sect would collapse outright.

Why scare you, junior brother? If it weren't for you saving senior brother this time, senior brother wouldn't have told you these things. Second Corpse General Feng Luoyue said coldly: "Those other junior brothers are among the sacrificial offerings; they will soon meet a violent end."

The Sect Master won't let them off; junior brother, if you don't believe me, just wait and see—in a few days the Sect Master will surely act.

As for whom he will strike first, senior brother doesn't know; but junior brother, do you still dare to go back?

The Red-Eyed Corpse General shivered, feeling utterly unwell.

Go back?

Impossible; he cannot go back, nor can he venture out on an adventure.

Senior brother, what should we do? The Red-Eyed Corpse General was frightened; indeed, the Second Corpse General had no need to deceive him, and thinking of the sect's strange circumstances, he wondered why, up to now, the sect's elders had not appeared, and much of its foundation remained hidden.

The Sect Master has been hiding, taking no action, making no sound, letting Tian Du Men and company oppress the sect, continually slaughtering disciples; the corpses of those dead disciples likely also become part of the sacrifice.

Strictly speaking, within the Corpse Refining Sect's territory, everyone is part of the sacrificial offering.

Thinking of this, the Red-Eyed Corpse General felt his scalp tingle and his whole body unwell.

Junior brother, this is why I need your help to let senior brother quickly regain his strength, and furthermore help senior brother advance further, break through to become a Corpse King; only then can we find a way to survive.
