Chapter 122 - Blood Token!
Yang Yuntian had heard Long Chen speak about his cultivation level but hadn’t witnessed it. When he saw Long Chen easily defeat the red-robed man, he finally believed it.
“Father ...”
The old man’s face was filled with shock. Yang Yuntian felt the same.
He stood silently next to the Yang patriarch and watched how Long Chen was going to deal with the Blood Saint.
The Yang patriarch had many questions, but he didn’t ask them. He only wanted to see how strong his grandson had become.
This was the Blood Saints’ territory, and the man had previously caused a huge commotion. Long Chen deeply understood that it was not a good place to stay for long, so he had to interrogate the man quickly.
The man was absolutely under his control and had no way of escaping. He knew that Long Chen was part of the Lingwu family and that if this matter was not dealt with properly, it could bring huge trouble to the Blood Saints. That was why the man was extremely frightened.
“I won’t waste any time with you. Answer all my questions truthfully. If you lie, I’ll break one arm for every lie you tell. We’ll see how many arms it takes for you to tell the truth!” Long Chen threatened coldly.
“I’ll tell, I’ll tell! Just ask!” cried the man in a panic. He saw that although Long Chen was young, his voice and eyes were filled with viciousness.
“Very good.” Long Chen nodded with satisfaction. “First question. When is the Sanguine Sacrificial Ceremony?”
Long Chen was here for the ceremony, so the man wasn’t surprised at the question.
However, many people knew the answer even if they weren’t part of the Blood Saints, so the man answered directly, “The Sanguine Sacrificial Ceremony is tomorrow!” N0v3lTr0ve served as the original host for this chapter's release on N0v3l--B1n.
“Tomorrow, when?”
That was what Long Chen wanted to know.
The man was startled by Long Chen’s cold glare and cried, “Tomorrow night! During the third watch[1] of the night! That is also the time when the Yin energy is thickest, so it’s the most suitable for the ceremony!”
Third watch of the night? He didn’t have much time.
Seeing as Long Chen didn’t respond immediately, the man probed cautiously, pretending to be pitiful, “Sir, will you let me go if I tell the truth?”
“That depends on whether I’m satisfied with your answers. If you stutter, try to hide information, or take me in circles, you will die a tragic death.”
Long Chen had spoken flatly, but it was terrifying to the man.
The Yang patriarch and Yang Yuntian saw that Long Chen had matured with time. They both looked at each other and nodded. “It looks like Chen’er has matured both in terms of cultivation and his personality after he entered the Lingwu family ...”
They gained a bit more confidence in Long Chen to rescue Yang Lingqing. “Perhaps he might even succeed ...”
At this point, Long Chen asked his second question. “Where is the Blood Lair where the Sanguine Sacrificial Ceremony will be held?”
The Yang patriarch and Yang Yuntian were both shaken.
Long Chen stored the man’s body in his Universe Pouch, then he cleaned up the scene and covered the marks. “There are people heading our way already. We cannot stay here for long. Grandfather, let’s go somewhere safe and discuss our plans.”
Long Chen led them to the forest outside Yuanling City. This wasn’t far from the Blood Saints, and it was a great place to remain hidden. “Grandfather, Second Uncle, you guys must have heard the questions I asked. Stay here while I catch a few more Blood Saints to confirm the information we received. Afterwards, I’ll infiltrate the Blood Lair to rescue Lingqing!”
“No!” Yang Yuntian cried. “Chen’er, the Blood Lair is extremely dangerous! How could you enter alone? Lingqing is my daughter, I’ll go with you!”
Long Chen shook his head. “Second Uncle, forget it. I’m strong enough to retreat safely if I encounter the Grand Priest, but you’ll only add to the problem if you enter. Please trust me. I will fulfill my promise even if I die!
Yang Yuntian still wanted to speak, but the Yang patriarch pulled him back.
The Yang patriarch’s eyes were filled with concern as he gazed at Long Chen. “Chen’er, go do what you want. It’s true we can’t help in this matter. However, you are the Yang family’s hope for the future, so please remember to be very careful. Your life is of utmost priority, so do not get yourself killed over this. It is not worth it for you.”
Long Chen nodded solemnly and left, his silhouette quickly disappearing into Yuanling City. The Yang patriarch and Yang Yuntian looked at each other. “Father, say, do you think he’ll succeed?”
The Yang patriarch sighed. “I don’t know, but all the Yang family can do now is leave it up to the heavens ...”
***
Tossing the fourth body away, Long Chen looked towards the direction of the Blood Lair. “After confirming with four of these regular followers, I now know that the man was telling the truth. However, I still don’t know where Lingqing is being kept. Looks like I need to enter the Blood Lair to find her.”
Long Chen grinned as he looked at the Blood Token in his hand.
“That bastard even gave me a fake identity to stay alive. That was very smart on his part. In the best case scenario, I would’ve shown him mercy. And if I didn’t let him go in the end, he assumed only death would await me if I successfully infiltrated the Blood Saints.”
Long Chen had also asked the other four followers about Huang Tian, the name on his token. However, he learned that the followers of the Blood Saints weren’t very familiar with each other. Therefore, as long as he was careful upon entry and didn’t meet anyone who knew Huang Tian, he would enter successfully.
“Ling Xi, you have sharp senses. Help me search for her when the time comes.”
“I know. Lingqing is my sister too. If anything happens to her, I’m not forgiving you!”
Ling Xi was also panicking, knowing that Yang Lingqing was in trouble. She was also on edge as they neared the Blood Lair.
“That’s good. But you must promise me one thing.”
“What is it?”
“After stealing the Blazing Thunder Crystals, you don’t have much power left. I don’t want you using your power this time, or else!”
Although Long Chen had threatened her coldly, the threat was thick with concern.
Ling Xi nodded obediently.
“Blood Saints, I’m coming for you ...”
Long Chen set off in the direction of the Blood Saints.
