Chapter 413: The Red Knight's Overture

This person is Jiang Dashi.

But what exactly was the reason he came to find him?

Jiang Dashi looked at Ye Bai and let out a sigh, which made Ye Bai very surprised.

He rarely saw Jiang Dashi sigh.

"Teacher, do you have some unspeakable difficulty?"

Ye Bai asked curiously.

"I have a junior of an old friend who is participating in the Young Qilin Cup."

"I heard that you are a Judge for the Young Qilin Cup."

Afterward, Jiang Dashi began to hesitate again.

"Does Teacher want me to give him preferential treatment?"

Ye Bai took the initiative to ask.

"No, I hope you can keep him under surveillance."

"He has many ideas, but it is precisely because he has too many ideas that there is a problem."

"He might use any means necessary to achieve his goals."

"That is also the reason why I want you to watch him, just make sure he doesn't commit any major errors."

"By the way, his name is Jiangnan, and in terms of cultivation, he should be not far off from you."

Ye Bai nodded and kept the name Jiangnan deeply in his heart.

He actually wanted to see just how unruly this person named Jiangnan was.

That evening.

Ye Bai was tasting delicacies at a small tavern.

The roasted tree frog meat at this place was good, and the bones inside were crispy.

Just at this moment, a young woman wearing sunglasses and still possessing charm came before Ye Bai.

She ordered a glass of shochu and drank it with a dish of peanuts.

Ye Bai could feel the aura of blood evil on her body.

He frowned; this aura seemed to be unique to the Blood Saint Child.

It couldn't be wrong; after inheriting the Blood Pool and all the legacy memories of the Blood Saint Child, Ye Bai was the progenitor of the Blood Saint Child lineage.

Was this person here for revenge? Or was she here to gather intelligence?

Ye Bai was quite curious.

After finishing the roasted tree frog and drinking a full glass of Mangmang Juice, Ye Bai left the place feeling satisfied, as if he had drunk fake liquor.

When he walked to a dim alley, Ye Bai saw this charming young woman leaning against a street lamp, smoking a cigarette.

Seeing a blood-colored Barrier gradually rise, Ye Bai was trapped within the blood-colored Barrier, yet not a trace of panic appeared in his eyes.

Because he could feel that the 'Blood Saint Child' before him did not seem to have strength equal to his own.

"Hello there, lucky kid who obtained the complete legacy of the Blood Saint Child."

"I recognize you; the previous Blood Saint Child was so angered by you that he gnashed his teeth."

The young woman exhaled a smoke ring and said to Ye Bai.

"So, what are your plans?"

"Do you want to capture me and seize the complete Blood Saint Child legacy from my memories?"

The young woman transformed into the appearance of the Red Knight; she was draped in ferocious blood-colored armor and held a slender Rose Longsword in her hand.

Ye Bai recognized at a glance that this person was the Red Knight, one of the Blood Saint Child's former henchmen.

"What, are you planning to avenge your former master?"

The Gloom Butterfly King appeared silently in a corner nearby.

As long as Ye Bai gave the order, the wings of the Gloom Butterfly King would slice across the Red Knight's head.

"No, I am here to thank you."

"Thank you for killing the previous Blood Saint Child, and allowing my husband's Soul to achieve Rebirth."

There was a hint of gratitude in the Red Knight's tone.

"So, what are you trying to express?"

"Who is your husband?"

Ye Bai asked with a vigilant look.

"My husband is the Black Knight, and I also have a lovely daughter, but I do not know the whereabouts of my daughter."

"So I would like to ask you for a favor."

"In return, I will tell you everything about the activities of the Resurrection Society."

"How about it?"

Ye Bai did not quite believe the words spoken by the Red Knight.

"It seems you do not believe my words."

"But that is fine, as a token of sincerity."

"I will tell you a piece of inside information."

"The Spirit Saint Child will infiltrate the Phoenix Chick Cup this time to participate in the Phoenix Chick Cup competition."

"He will disguise himself as someone with a talent for manipulating the Soul."

"And the necromancers of the Gospel Society will also sneak in together."

"They want to seize the talents of the many participating contestants."

The Red Knight shared a piece of information with Ye Bai.

Although Ye Bai had already learned this information through other channels.

"And I will set up a blood-colored altar to select the contestants' talents from it."

"I wonder if you are satisfied with this information."

Ye Bai grinned: "Satisfied, how could I not be satisfied."

"However, how can you guarantee that you won't leak my secrets?"

Dahui and the Nether Hell Wolf had already been summoned by Ye Bai.

They were eyeing the Red Knight covetously, as if they would tear the Red Knight to pieces at the slightest disagreement.

"I can sign a Vow Stone, or sign a contract under the witness of a Demon God."

"No matter which method it is, I agree to it."

"The Demon God you are most familiar with should be Dankalabi, right?"

"Then let Dankalabi act as the intermediary, how about we sign a contract between us?"

"This way, you will be able to trust me."

"I have a common enemy with you, which is the Resurrection Society."

Ye Bai nodded: "If it is to summon Dankalabi, under the witness of a Demon God, I can believe your words."

"It's just that where would it be appropriate for us to summon Dankalabi?"

"This is the Imperial Capital, an important city of the Yan Country; if we summon Dankalabi here, I believe we will be discovered by the National Guardian Pillars directly, and they will beat us to death."

The Red Knight was extremely calm: "Just name a place, and I will agree to your request."

"Only then will you feel at ease and feel that I won't have any ulterior motives."

"I don't have much hatred toward you all; only the Resurrection Society is what I have always wanted to destroy."

"The Trinity Project of the Resurrection Society is currently at a critical stage, and this matter of seizing talents is the key factor in whether the Trinity can proceed."

The Red Knight revealed information about the Trinity.

"How about this, I will find a place first, and after summoning Dankalabi, you can tell me about the Trinity Project."

Ye Bai did not have this project in the inheritance of the Blood Saint.

"Fine."

The Red Knight agreed.

"Come, follow me, let's go to my Breeding House."

"Do not try any tricks; once I discover you transmitting any information to the outside world, Dahui's Thunder God Axe will cut off your head without hesitation."

The Red Knight's gaze fell upon Dahui.

"So that's how it is, it's you."

"That Pet Beast that escaped from the Death God Society Laboratory."

"I didn't expect you to have grown to this height."

"Now you can probably stand toe-to-toe with the Death God."

"The Death God has been searching for your tracks all along."

"It's just that some time ago, the Death God suffered heavy injuries, which is why things have quieted down a bit."

The Red Knight directly stated Dahui's origin.

"This Exotic Beast of yours can cause extremely strong restraint against the Death God, and the hellfire on your dog can also become a means to restrain the Death God."

The Nether Hell Wolf was furious!

Dog, your whole family is dogs.

I am a wolf, a wolf!

The Nether Hell Wolf glared fiercely at the Red Knight; if looks could pierce the Red Knight, the Red Knight's body would have already been riddled with holes.

"However, the Death God is, after all, proficient in Soul Manipulation."

"You still need to be a little careful."

"I don't want to see my partner just die like that."

The Red Knight walked along with Ye Bai, and the two of them chatted like this.

Only then did Ye Bai learn how the Death God Society came to be.

The Death God was originally a super billionaire and also a powerful Pet Beast Master.

But because he was terrified of death, he spent a huge fortune to build a super Laboratory.

In this Laboratory, he researched potions that could prolong life.

At the beginning, the research was quite smooth, and he did indeed develop potions that could make people live long lives.

But good times didn't last long; soon, he discovered that these longevity potions seemed to have huge side effects.

These potions would turn him into a living dead state, and Exotic Beasts with the thunder attribute seemed to be able to resolve his troubles.

Consequently, the Death God began to capture thunder-attribute Exotic Beasts on a large scale, or cultivate thunder-attribute Exotic Beasts.

Besides wanting to gain massive prestige in the human world, he also wanted to research treasures that could dispel death energy and allow him to live another life.

The Death God heard that the Chinchilla's physique was very powerful, which is why he wanted your Pet Beast to evolve into a Thunder Chinchilla.

He cast a Death Curse into the body of every Chinchilla.

Once a Chinchilla could not withstand the Death Curse, it would die suddenly.

Only when a Chinchilla evolved into a Thunder Chinchilla was it possible to lift this curse; otherwise, only the death of the Chinchilla could possibly lift this curse.

After some research and the injection of thunder-type heavenly treasures, the Chinchilla successfully evolved into a Thunder Chinchilla.

But unfortunately, the moment this Thunder Chinchilla successfully evolved, it began to go berserk.

Furthermore, even the Death God Curse could not be expelled, which made the Death God very annoyed.

He spent a great deal of manpower and resources to search for this Thunder Chinchilla, but he could never find its tracks.

The Death God never imagined that Ye Bai had wiped away the surrounding traces, and that the Thunder Chinchilla had even undergone regression, regressing into a Chinchilla.

Because the Death God Curse within its body consumed most of Dahui's life force, Dahui's body had become so weak.

The Death God had never given up on searching for Dahui, because his own time was running out.

Once he died, his soul would be devoured by his Pet Beast, and from then on, his consciousness would also be erased by the Pet Beast.

And the Thunder Chinchilla that Ye Bai had raised had its final battle footage transmitted by Baichong at the moment it fought Baichong.

This was what made the Death God realize that the Thunder Chinchilla had been alive all along, and he just hadn't discovered it.

Therefore, the Death God put in even more effort, demanding that everyone in the Death God Society be dispatched to search for the whereabouts of the Thunder Chinchilla.

Because Ye Bai was either in a competition or abroad, this caused the search work to become quite difficult.

The Death God Society did not find the tracks of the Thunder Chinchilla for a long time, and gradually they also quieted down.

Now, the leader of the Death God Society was about to be backlashed by his Pet Beast, and his soul would be obliterated by the Pet Beast.

So he planned to take the first step and fuse with his Exotic Beast, letting his own consciousness occupy the dominant position.

To achieve this goal, the Death God sacrificed almost all of his subordinates in exchange for immense power.

He began to fuse with the Exotic Beast and was currently in a stage of deep sleep.

Once the Death God awakened, he would possess the strength of a Seven-Tier Peak.

The intelligence revealed by the Red Knight was substantial, deepening Ye Bai's impression of the Death God Society.

It seemed the Death God Society was nothing more than a lone commander now.

If the Death God came to fight and seize Dahui, it was not certain who would emerge victorious.

The Death God was certainly formidable, but the Pet Beasts in Ye Bai's hands were also very formidable.

After Ye Bai arrived at his Breeding House, Ye Bai easily summoned the Demon God Dankalabi.

Because Ye Bai was so familiar with Dankalabi, this time Ye Bai only used gems to get the summoning done.

"Who is summoning me, the great Abyssal Sage, Gem Appraiser, Lord Dankalabi Demon God."

Dankalabi transformed into the shape of a Pentagram, floating in the air, with an eye on each of its five corners.

In the middle was a mouth and a massive single eye.

"So it is you two."

Dankalabi said with a pretentious air.

"Lord Dankalabi, I have a request here that needs to be witnessed before your great self."

Ye Bai told Dankalabi the sequence of events.

"So that's how it is, you want to sign an Oath Contract, is that it?"

"Absolutely no problem; this kind of contract will be formed under the witness of Styx Water."

"Once someone breaks the contract, they will be scoured by the Styx Water and eventually vanish into thin air."

Styx Water is the main artery of the Abyss; basically, every layer of the Abyss has a Styx.

The Styx is a hotbed for hatching demons, but once a demon hatches into an Abyssal Worm, they will leave the protection of the Styx Water.

At this time, the gluttonous feast will begin.

Big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat shrimp.

And Abyssal Worms are the lowest-level existences, naturally becoming the food source for bottom-tier demons.

Once a demon hatches, whether it is the lowest-level Abyssal Worm or the highest-level Demon God.

They all fear Styx Water, because Styx Water will corrode their bodies.

This is why, when Demon Gods sign contracts, they all swear by the Styx; this is because once they violate the contract, they will truly be punished by the Abyss, their bodies will be baptized by the Styx Water, and their divine bodies will gradually be corroded by the river water.

The Red Knight and Ye Bai signed the contract under the witness of Dankalabi.

Of course, the beneficiary of this contract was Ye Bai, while the Red Knight's conditions were very simple.

The Red Knight had only one request: she wanted to entrust Ye Bai to find the whereabouts of her daughter.

That was her only condition.

And as the price, the Red Knight would become Ye Bai's informant and tell him all the intelligence regarding the Resurrection Society.

Now, there was one piece of bad news: the four Elders of Wind, Fire, Water, and Earth were already about to take the final step.

Once they took it, they would be Ninth Rank powerhouses.

By that time, it would inevitably bring trouble to the Yan Country.

"Then, you just wait for my good news."

"I only have one request: find my daughter."

"You have obtained the complete inheritance of the Blood Saint Child, so you should be able to find the place where I conducted the transformation experiments; that should be the burial place of my daughter."

"Once I find my daughter, I will directly vanish from this world."
