Chapter 607

~5 min read 801 words

Of course, the Nine Heaven Mystic Wings were a top-grade heavenly magic treasure, but he was limited by his cultivation base and could not fully unleash its power.

If he unleashed his full strength, he would surely surpass the opponent!

Sunset twilight.

Jiang Han and Jiang Xiao arrived safely within the Tiance Prefecture's territory.

Under Jiang Han's guidance, Jiang Xiao began heading toward the Earth Demon Cult's encampment!

Meanwhile, on the other side.

Earth Demon Cult encampment, Annihilation Heaven Hall.

The Three Protectors above had closed his eyes, dozing quietly, saying nothing.

All the cult envoys below had gathered inside the hall.

One envoy whispered: "This Blood Demon just joined us a few days ago—why entrust him with such a vital mission? What if he...?"

Wen Qian shook his head: "No need to worry. Everyone out there knows this Blood Demon is bloodthirsty—he's offended countless sects and clans, even dared to defy the imperial court. Who else could he turn to but us?"

"True. Any intelligent person knows what choice to make. This Blood Demon has operated for so long across several prefectures without ever causing a major incident—he's clearly no fool."

Hearing this, the envoy felt slightly reassured and added: "Now that the Blood Demon has gone to Cangwu City, do you think the Cangwu Jiang family truly has ties to the Ninth Young Master's lineage?"

"Hmph. A mere family from a remote region—its rapid rise is utterly shocking. It must possess an extraordinary heritage to have grown so swiftly!"

"You all saw how much the old Cult Master favored the Ninth Young Master. He likely even received the Heaven Demon Talisman, that supreme treasure. Imagine how many other treasures the old master secretly gave him!"

"With such a foundation, it's not hard to imagine the Cangwu Jiang family producing a few geniuses and suddenly rising to prominence."

The others debated eagerly.

Deep inside, their hearts burned with heat.

After centuries, they had finally learned news connected to the Ninth Young Master.

How could they not be excited?

If they could obtain the Heaven Demon Talisman from the Ninth Young Master's descendants, they could command both the Heaven Demon and Earth Demon Cults and become their true masters!

They could even liberate their true spirits and regain their freedom!

As the others spoke, the Three Protectors, still with closed eyes, could not help but feel his spirit stir!

"Heaven Demon Talisman? Once I obtain it, how could you, you old bastard of a Grand Protector, still challenge me?"

Thinking of the centuries of fighting between the two cults that had cost countless lives,

his hatred for the Grand Protector grew fiercer.

Just as everyone was lost in their sweet fantasies of the future,

a cult member suddenly entered, knelt on the ground, and respectfully said: "Report, Three Protectors—the Blood Demon has returned!"

As his words fell, the others had initially been dismissive: "So he's back... wait, who returned?!"

Only when they realized, did they freeze in shock!

Hadn't the Blood Demon only left the cult a few days ago?

How could he return so quickly?

Had he already gathered the intelligence we needed in Cangwu City?

At that moment, the Three Protectors suddenly opened his eyes, a sharp gleam flashing within!

"Good! Blood Demon, I knew I didn't misjudge you! You completed the task so swiftly—I shall reward you handsomely!"

Thinking this, he looked down at the envoys and said sternly: "Go and welcome the Blood Demon in!"

"Yes, sir!"

The cult member bowed and swiftly left the hall.

Time slowly passed.

While waiting for the Blood Demon's arrival,

everyone felt time had never dragged so painfully—as if each day lasted a year.

They were desperate to learn news about the Heaven Demon Talisman!

Amid this agonizing wait,

a heavy voice suddenly rang out, echoing through the hall and reaching every ear!

Everyone immediately looked up, gazing ahead.

The hall doors were slowly pushed open.

The face that appeared was none other than the Blood Demon, unseen for days!

Seeing the main figure arrive, Wen Qian could no longer suppress his urgency and prepared to ask.

But before he could speak, he noticed the black-robed youth standing behind the Blood Demon!

That unfamiliar face filled him with confusion!

The other envoys felt the same.

They furrowed their brows, all deeply puzzled.

The cult already had so few members.

Combined with their exceptional memories, they all knew every individual within the cult.

So the moment they saw the black-robed youth, everyone was certain: they had never seen this person before in the cult.

That meant he was an outsider?

Realizing this, their expressions darkened.

One envoy glared at Jiang Han and scolded: "Blood Demon! How dare you bring an outsider into the cult? Do you have any respect for our rules?!"
