Chapter 28: Bai Ze (1/2)

“Bai Ze?!” Li Luobing and Jiang Ren exclaimed in unison, both with shocked expressions.

“That’s right, Bai Ze. The ruler of Lanyuan sacrificed ninety-nine demon queens and used his own blood to nurture the ancient Bai Ze bloodline, which is about to be born soon.”

Li Luobing and Jiang Ren were astonished upon hearing this.

Lanyuan Kingdom was the only country ruled by the demon race among the five great dynasties.

Although the majority of the citizens were still ordinary humans, the demon race held a higher status than humans. Therefore, Lanyuan had always been in a closed state, avoiding contact with the other four dynasties to prevent the outflow of its citizens.

The lifespan of the demon race far exceeded that of ordinary citizens. The current ruler of Lanyuan had been in power for over a thousand years. The martial world had long known that this demon king was somewhat extreme and crazy, dedicated to reviving the ancient divine beast bloodline and restoring the glory of the demon race.

For this purpose, he even crazily recruited a harem and conducted biological experiments with various bloodlines of the demon race, attempting to purify the bloodline.

Few believed he could succeed, and the Human Sect and the demon race had always had a strained relationship, so his mad experiments received little attention.

Now, he had actually achieved it! The legendary ancient divine beast Bai Ze was about to descend into the world?!

This was not just an ordinary event; it was something that could shake the entire Spirit Martial Continent!

“Master, this opportunity… I fear it may be too much for me to handle.”

Thinking about the scene of heroes competing and gods battling, Jiang Ren couldn’t help but tremble.

Master Wuyuan shot a frustrated glance at Jiang Ren and said, “What are you afraid of? Don’t you have your senior sister? Just rely on her.”

“Thank you, Master!”

Jiang Ren’s original intention was to have Master Wuyuan agree to let Li Luobing take him along. Upon hearing this, he surprisingly did not catch the sarcasm in the words and hurriedly expressed his gratitude.

“…” Master Wuyuan was momentarily speechless and lost interest in what he originally wanted to say.

Li Luobing noticed Master Wuyuan’s intention and quickly asked, “Master, the matter of the demon beast descending should not be something we alone have deduced, right? All major forces will come to fight for it. Relying solely on me and my junior brother, isn’t that…”

“No need to worry.” Master Wuyuan waved his hand.

“After all, Lanyuan also belongs to the five great dynasties. Once that old demon king goes mad, no one would want to bear his wrath.”

“The five great dynasties balance each other, and a single thread can affect the whole. If Lanyuan is destroyed, neither the Confucian Sect nor the Human Sect would want to see this happen.”

“Therefore, the mission of seizing Bai Ze can only be done by loose cultivators! Moreover, there will be no powerful figures from the Immortal Path realm coming, otherwise, Hermit Valley would also be dragged into it.”

“At that time, those old monsters will definitely show up and keep a close watch on us.”

Li Luobing and Jiang Ren nodded in realization, and a victorious smile had already appeared on Jiang Ren’s face.

No one from the Nine Realms of the Immortal Path would intervene? Did that not mean a direct declaration of victory?

Li Luobing happened to be at the peak of the five realms of the Human Path, the Opening Profound Realm. In the martial world, was there anyone stronger than her below the Immortal Path?

Jiang Ren’s lips curled up, but he suddenly heard Master Wuyuan pour cold water on him:

“Don’t celebrate too early!”

“Bing’er, your reputation is well-known. Everyone knows you are my disciple, and your strength has already reached the level of a nascent soul. You also cannot act recklessly.”

“This time, you and Jiang Ren must pay attention to concealing your identities, and unless absolutely necessary, do not act. The main priority is to protect him and ensure he does not die!”

Master Wuyuan’s expression was serious, exuding an aura of authority.

“Yes!” Without daring to hesitate, Li Luobing cupped her hands in response.

Although she felt pained for the younger brother she had brought out from the Great Chu Palace, she still held Master Wuyuan in greater reverence.

Jiang Ren, who heard this, turned pale; did this not mean he could only rely on himself?

“As for Ning Wuxie, after several inquiries, I confirmed that this kid indeed has no background and has not been apprenticed to any major sect.”

“Your True Essence was lost for no reason, and it may indeed be related to him. However, the possibility is low, and you should reflect more on your own issues!”

Jiang Ren lowered his head deeply, his face filled with resentment and anger, appearing somewhat ferocious.
