Chapter 123 - Blood Lair!
The building before him was a few times larger than the Turquoise Willow Residence. Despite being called the Blood Lair, it was a beautiful structure with elegant pavilions and landscaping. It looked like the residence of a wealthy family or a well-read scholar.
Long Chen stood at the entrance and observed for a while. Together with Ling Xi’s sensing abilities, he quickly figured out the method to enter the place. It was simple. All he had to do was show his Blood Token and declare the Protector whom he was under the jurisdiction of. “Huang Tian, under the jurisdiction of Protector Zhou Tai?”
The four guards at the entrance were at the peak of the Ninth Draconic Stage. Although Long Chen was infinitely stronger than them, he dared not act recklessly.
The man nodded, then one of them gave the Blood Token back to him and Long Chen was allowed into the Blood Lair. The guards are probably on rotation, that’s why they don’t know Huang Tian. However, there’s likely going to be people in the Blood Saints who know Huang Tian, so I need to be careful.
Long Chen then walked into the massive Blood Lair, trying his best to fit in.
Due to the all-important Sanguine Sacrificial Ceremony, many followers had made their way to the Blood Lair over the past few days to bear witness to the grand moment. That was why the place was busy.
It was obvious that only vicious, violent people with darkness in their hearts would join the Blood Saints. That was why people weren’t friendly with each other despite it being a busy place. This was convenient for Long Chen.
He walked around the Blood Lair calmly, searching for information about the underground city, but he learned nothing. Looks like I need to be bolder. Ñøv€l-B1n was the first platform to present this chapter.
Although the Blood Lair was huge, Long Chen had almost finished touring the place after a short while. He had stopped at the Great Blood Hall when a huge, muscular man walked by him, eyed him suspiciously, then asked, “Hey, kid, I haven’t seen you here before. Are you new?”
Long Chen was already mentally prepared for this situation. Huang Tian had also joined recently, so he answered without hesitation, “It’s been less than a month since I joined.”
The man chuckled. “I don’t think you’ve gotten the chance to enjoy the greatness of a blood bath yet, have you? The feeling you get when you cultivate in the blood bath—oh, how I miss it! But you got lucky, kid, to have the privilege of experiencing it right after joining!”
The man patted Long Chen’s shoulder heavily, saw Long Chen’s pained expression, then laughed and left.
But when he left, Long Chen’s pained expression disappeared instantly. It’s basically useless for me to loiter around now. I’ll wait until nighttime to investigate; it’ll be more effective then. Sticking my nose everywhere now will just make it easier for someone to find me out.
Everyone had their own quarters in the Blood Lair. However, Long Chen didn’t return to Huang Tian’s quarters. As the sky darkened, he found a corner where he could hide himself. Night was quickly approaching, and there were fewer people around. The Grand Priest lives in a place called the Blood House. I think I need to get inside the Blood House to learn about the underground city. I’m guessing that the entrance will also be in the Blood House.
With that thought, the lady called Sister Li nodded. “Just as he said, let’s find a place to speak.”
Long Chen followed the lady around the Blood Lair, finally arriving in a small room after a few turns. He was surprised to see that the three had a room and still weren’t being suspected.
“Don’t be shocked, Brother. The three of us have been planning to remove this malignant tumor that is the Blood Saints for years. However, one must enter the tiger’s cave to kill the tiger. That is why we joined the Blood Saints more than a month ago—so our movements here wouldn’t attract suspicion.”
It was no wonder that these three were so familiar with the Blood Lair.
All four of them were united with a common purpose. They sat at a round table, and Long Chen looked at the tall, muscular woman, as well as the two similar-looking middle-aged men. He introduced himself first. “My name is Long Chen. How should I address you all?”
The woman said straightforwardly, “I’m Li Jing. These two are Li Peng and Li Cheng. Long Chen, why are you here?”
“Like you, my cousin, whom I see as my own sister, was kidnapped by the Blood Saints. So, I’m here to save her.”
The three of them looked at each other. Li Jing said, “My younger sister was also a victim. But ... While I’m impressed by your courage, seeing as you’re so young, the Blood Saints are extremely dangerous. We’re walking on extremely thin ice being here...”
“Everyone, may I ask if you have any information about the underground city?” Long Chen ignored her remark and cut straight to the chase.
Li Jing froze, then said, “There are a total of ten tunnels in the underground city, all of the entryways located in the Blood House. However, entering is difficult. Exiting is even more difficult. The Grand Priest and the five Sect Elders are in the Blood House. Even if we can force our way into the underground city, we won’t make it out ...”
“Is that so?” Long Chen’s brows were tightly knitted.
Li Peng and Li Cheng sighed. Looking at Long Chen’s young face, one of them said, “Hey, kid, we’re very impressed that you have a strong sense of justice at such a young age. However, the strength of the Blood Saints is truly beyond your imagination.”
“That’s right. I think you should leave while you still can. You can take your revenge when you succeed in your cultivation. Don’t sacrifice yourself for nothing here. All three of us view death as coming home, so even if we can’t save Sister Li’s sister, we will still make these monsters pay!”
They saw that Long Chen was young and had a bright future ahead. They were offering advice out of kindness.
Long Chen understood this, though that didn’t mean he agreed. “Everyone, my cousin is very important to me. I must save her even if I must risk my life!”
Seeing as Long Chen was so stubborn, all three looked at each other and sighed, about to speak when there was a loud boom outside. “There’s a mole!”
