Chapter 448

So after the old cult master fell in battle.

He had long coveted this Heavenly Demon treasury, yearning to obtain the Life Soul Stone, to seize control of his own life and death, and regain his freedom!

Now that he finally glimpsed a ray of hope, how could he possibly let go so easily?

At this moment, Liu Yi took his leave.

The Grand Protector gradually calmed down.

He glanced at the youth beside him and gave a mocking smile:

"Cult Master, now this old man must go meet your kinsmen. Aren't you even the least bit looking forward to it?"

Hearing this, Jiang Zhongming's expression was cold and indifferent. He said self-mockingly, "Looking forward to it? Looking forward to them coming here to share in my suffering?"

The Grand Protector's expression did not change, nor did he care in the slightest.

Ever since the cult master fell.

In order to maintain his prestige within the cult.

And moreover, to wield the Heaven-grade lower-quality sect-suppressing sword "Heavenly Demon Sword," which could only be used by one of Jiang family bloodline!

He had no choice but to find a branch of the cult master's nephews and grandnephews, and prop up one of those clansmen onto the cult master's throne.

Of course, this cult master was a figurehead in name only, nothing more than a puppet in his hands.

However, to avoid any mishaps, all these Jiang clansmen had their cultivation restricted by him.

Most of the clansmen were ordinary people with no cultivation base whatsoever.

A few could cultivate to the Postnatal realm.

Take Jiang Zhongming, the cult master, for example—today he is merely at the ninth layer of the Innate realm.
