Chapter 681: That’s how we work!
Translator: Sigma Editor: Hitesh
Crack!
The Demon Testing Needle shattered.
The drop of ruby blood fell, then rolled on the ground. However, it didn’t seep into the ground but revolved, releasing a tremendous aura.
Shi Yan paled slightly.
The drop of blood he had squeezed off his finger was the Immortal Blood. The imposing blood aura it carried was condensed from the enormous energy. Also, this blood was different from the blood in his body.
He had condensed ten drops of Immortal Blood, which wasn’t as much as even 1% of the blood in his body. However, it contained a tremendous, imposing energy.
He wanted to use this Immortal Blood to gain the acceptance of Bao Ao and Jie Ji. He wanted to make a good relationship with the Demon Clan to protect the Yang family and his human members.
The five alien tribes were too intimidating. If the situation weren’t too harsh, he didn’t want to turn his back to the five alien tribes and risk his life against them.
If he could borrow the force, he would never deny the chance. In his eyes, the Immortal Blood perhaps would be the key to connect him and Bao Ao, Jie Ji. Thus, to gain the acceptance he didn’t use his blood, but a drop of the Immortal Blood.
He could never imagine that the Immortal Blood drop would break the Demon Testing Needle. This had frightened him, as he thought that perhaps he had done it the wrong way.
Shi Yan kept silent. He was discreetly urging the energy in his body to get ready in case he was attacked.
He knew the reason why Bao Ao and Jie Ji had treated him well and hadn’t killed him yet. These two had considered him the fellow of their clan. That’s why they had protected him.
If he weren’t the member of their clan, Shi Yan believed that Bao Ao and Jie Ji would never show him mercy. Their attack would be more furious than ever.
Shi Yan felt tense, and he was secretly prepared. If Bao Ao and Jie Ji were hostile, he would run away immediately and never hesitate.
In his eyes, Bao Ao and Jie Ji were more dangerous than Long Zhu. At least, they were at the Third Sky of True God Realm.
In this place, if these two attacked him, he could only run away to survive.
When his energy started to move, his boiling blood was more blazing. Under the effect of the liquors, his blood seemed to be refined. They even proactively took his Essence Qi to turn it into Immortal Blood.
This finding startled him more. He sensed for a while and found his blood flowing faster in his vessels, as if someone had forced it to move.
Indeed, his boiling blood had a miraculous change under the effect of the wine.
Shi Yan changed his face while being alert, looking at Bao Ao and Jie Ji.
Bao Ao and Jie Ji seemed like lightning had struck on them, standing dully on their spots. They stooped, looking at the pieces of the Demon Testing Needle, and the drop of Immortal Blood. They had a stunned complexion, as if someone had cast the Body Fixing Technique on them.
Shi Yan was also astounded. He frowned then used his soul to urge the drop of Immortal Blood on the ground to get back into his body through the cut on his fingertip.
Bao Ao’s and Jie Ji’s eyes moved along with the Immortal Blood, seeing it entering Shi Yan’s body. The two suddenly shivered. A terrifying light radiated from their eyes, which was like real several-meters-long ribbons.
Their dazzling line of sight fell on Shi Yan’s finger, giving him a burning pain, as if he had put his finger into a flaming liquid.
Bao Ao and Jie Ji still couldn’t utter a word, their faces looking frightening. Light sparkled in their eyes like lines of fire.
Shi Yan didn’t know about their thoughts. He discreetly stepped backward, frowned while putting up his guard. “What’s going on? Why did the Demon Testing Needle get…broken?”
Bao Ao and Jie Ji trembled slightly. Their mouths twitched, as if they could finally react.
They exchanged looks and retrieved the light in their eyes. Their faces looked as if they had just discovered a whole new continent. They seemed to be petrified. They wanted to say something, but didn’t know how to start it, which made them clumsily funny.
After a long while, Bao Ao stopped his awkward action first. He took several deep breaths, gave some dry coughs, and then said, “Shi Yan, agree with us about one thing. Come with us to this place.”
Jie Ji looked at him with longing eyes.
Shi Yan was astounded. He pondered and then asked, “So my bloodline… is verified?”
Bao Ao and Jie Ji smiled. Their thick-skinned face bloomed like a flower, nodding continually.
“Which branch of the Demon Clan?” asked Shi Yan curiously.
“Come with us. You will get it naturally. Haha… We’ll help you solve the problem here. We’ll make the other clans withdraw. We won’t disturb your place. How about that?” Jie Ji smiled until his eyes got as narrow as a thin line. He was smiling and begging. “You have to go there. Without you… It’s not good.”
Shi Yan was astounded for a while. “I can’t leave now. I need time.”
He was half a step into the True God Realm, so he wanted to use the Creator’s Divine Pond to break through the True God Realm first. Then only he would think what to do next.
“No problem. We will wait for you outside. Yeah, we will protect you guys. Once you’re done, you will leave with us.” Bao Ao said generously. “My men will help you defend. You don’t need to worry about the stuff here.”
“I can send my men to you to use,” Jie Ji also showed his good will.
Shi Yan felt awkward looking at these two bold leaders, but he didn’t know what they wanted to do.
He thought about it carefully and then nodded. “Okay, after I’ve arranged everything, I’ll go with you. Yeah, where do you want to go?”
“You’ll get to know. Don’t worry. We’re not going to harm you… Maybe, you will have a new magical encounter, I guess.” Bao Ao patted his chest affirmatively.
“Alright,” Shi Yan agreed begrudgingly.
What Bao Ao and Jie Ji had offered him was too generous. He could avoid the fight with the five alien tribes, and, from their attitudes, Shi Yan understood that they could even fight the other tribes for him. This change was inexplicable to him.
“Alright, you should solve your stuff first. We will help you resolve the other things.” Bao Ao swung his hand as if fighting against the other tribes wasn’t a hard task to him.
Shi Yan was suspicious. However, he followed them back to the city center. Still, he didn’t know what the two cunning Demon Clan’s leaders wanted to do.
After he got back to the city, he saw that Bao Ao and Jie Ji were still standing there.
They fiddled with the fragments of the Demon Testing Needle in their hands. Looking at the crystal pieces, they couldn’t hold their joy anymore, as if they had found a large treasure.
“No matter what we could have thought, we would never have thought that he belongs to… that race. Haha, I didn’t expect that that race still has a generation of descendants. God does favor our Clan!” Long afterward, Bao Ao sighed, but his face was joyful. He was trembling.
“Who could have thought about it?” Jie Ji was also stirred up. “I thought it would be super hard to enter the First Demon Area. Haha, with him, we have the key already. It’s time for our Demon Clan to raise. If that race still has the bloodline and inheritance, we still have the hope of our prosperity. It’s too good to be true.”
“We should solve his problems to ease his worries,” Bao Ao pondered for a while and then smiled. “As long as we protect him, he could have enough time to grow in this Divine Great Land.”
Jie Ji nodded heavily.
They exchanged looks and grinned, then disappeared into thin air as if they could tear space.
In the next moment, Bao Ao and Jie Ji appeared next to Corpse Chief, Kante, and the Dark Clan. Comoros had appeared with changed makings. He was filled with confidence, as a light sparkled radiantly in his eyes.
“How is it?” asked Kante.
“He belongs to my Demon Clan, it’s no doubt. Otherwise, he wouldn’t return safely to the city. Haha…” Bao Ao laughed and replied.
“Which branch of your Demon Clan? With the Demon Testing Needle, I think it’s easy to verify him, right?” Comoros frowned, as he felt really annoyed inside. He wanted to kill that brat. But, if they could prove he was one of the Demon Clan’s members, Bao Ao and Jie Ji would protect him, which made it hard to kill him then.
“Haha, which branch… Excuse us, but we can’t tell you. You just need to know that he belongs to our Demon Clan.” Bao Ao was still smiling, but his eyes were cold and sharp. “Those lowly people are his servants. Jie Ji and I have agreed that since Shi Yan’s our fellow, he has the right to live in the Divine Great Land. Those people are his slaves, so they can live too. This is our opinion. What do you think?”
Comoros shouted. “No! When we came here, we made it clear that if he belongs to the Demon Clan, he can live. But those humans have to die!”
Corpse Chief of the Corpse Clan, Kante of the Dark Spirit Clan, and the three Yama Kings of the Dark Clan all wore grimaced faces. Apparently, they didn’t agree with Bao Ao and Jie Ji’s solution.
“If you don’t agree with us, it’s okay,” Jie Ji grinned fiendishly. “If you want to take action, besides the Human Clan, you will have to deal with the Demon Clan too. Oh right, the Monster Clan is with him now as well. Are you sure you want to do this?”
As soon as he finished, Comoros and Kante paled indignantly. Rage rose in their hearts, as they were gazing at Bao Ao and Jie Ji with red eyes.
“That’s how the Demon Clan works. Talk to our fists.” Bao Ao rose his head arrogantly as he didn’t put in mind the others’ objection. “If you aren’t so pleased with our opinion, we can always fight. You will face humans, monsters, and us. Decide yourself.”
“Good! I will remember that!” Comoros clenched his jaw and then shouted. “I don’t believe you can keep swaggering. I want to see if you can protect him forever!”
Then, Comoros left along with his clansmen from the Ghost Mark Clan.
People of the Corpse Clan, the Dark Clan, and the Dark Spirit Clan coldly looked at Bao Ao and Jie Ji for a while. However, they didn’t choose to attack them directly. Eventually, they took their men and left.
