Black Demon Sect?

Everyone’s heart chilled because they all knew that once it involved a war between sects, it was usually very cruel and bloody.

Lin Chen’s gaze fell on the faces of He Jingshan and the others, as he furrowed his brows and said, "Sect Master He, judging by your expressions, you don’t seem to know about this Black Demon Sect?"

He Jingshan glanced at the people around him and shook his head, saying, "Indeed, we have never heard of it, perhaps it is just an emerging sect without much fame yet."

The Ten Thousand Gods Immortal Domain is vast, with different races in the four domains having different sects, such as in Eastern Brilliance, where the largest are the Three Sects of Dong Huang. Besides them, there are many minor sects, and in the Northern Sea, the biggest is naturally the Sea God Sect. Even so, aside from the Sea God Sect, there are countless small sects.

Some of these sects are confined to a single corner and may just preach within their own area of influence, finding it hard to encroach into the territories of other powers. Others control large areas, akin to ruling a nation independently, unable to contend with the Sea God Sect. They guard their own plot of land diligently. Despite having no hope of expansion, they still lead fulfilling lives.

Lan Xinyu pressed on, "Where is the headquarters of your Black Demon Sect, who is the Sect Hierarch, and what is the strength of your followers?

Miao Chuanzhi, having apparently given up on resisting to avoid further suffering, answered straightforwardly, "The headquarters of the Black Demon Sect is in Bai..."

"Boom!"

Just as everyone was listening intently, Miao Chuanzhi’s head suddenly exploded.

Blood splattered everywhere!

Everyone’s eyes widened in shock as they watched Miao Chuanzhi’s torso slump to the ground.

This explosion not only obliterated Miao Chuanzhi but also shattered his Primordial Spirit entirely.

Clearly, Miao Chuanzhi did not expect such an event, so he readily answered everyone’s questions without knowing he would so suddenly meet his end.

Lin Chen frowned. Could this be a vow or curse?

From Miao Chuanzhi’s reaction just now, he seemed unaware that he was bound by any vow or curse. Therefore, he answered without any mental burden, yet the next moment, because he had violated the vow, he exploded.

Bai?

Bai what?

Everyone’s gaze again fell upon the black-robed young man next to them, who was the Black Demon Sect’s Young Master.

The Young Man, having been terrified by the sudden explosive scene involving Miao Chuanzhi, screamed in panic and began retreating unconsciously backwards as if trying to distance himself from the remains of Miao Chuanzhi.

All eyes landed unwaveringly on the Young Man, and He Jingshan asked, "What’s your name?"

Paralyzed with fear, the Young Man did not want to answer, yet dared not refuse, knowing that his life was in everyone’s hands.

"Ye Wei Qing."

Master Floating Cloud suddenly interrupted He Jingshan, "Ye Wei Qing, you know where the headquarters of your Black Demon Sect is, right?"

Ye Wei Qing clenched his teeth, not daring to answer as he feared a reply might lead to an instant death akin to Miao Chuanzhi’s.

Master Floating Cloud said gravely, "The sudden death of Miao Chuanzhi, due to a vow or curse he might have made unknowingly, and thus he himself was unaware, I don’t need you to tell me the exact location, you can just nod or shake your head, I think the vow wouldn’t be so detailed..."

Upon hearing these words, a glimmer of hope shone in the desperate eyes of Ye Wei Qing.

Who wanted to die anyway?

Being captured, if he said nothing, he was certain to die, but speaking would also lead to death, so how could he survive?

If he could satisfy the questioners without triggering the vow, perhaps he might just save his own life?

Uncertain if this would work, he had no choice but to take the risk!

Ye Wei Qing nodded his head nervously, sweating profusely.

Nothing happened!

Seconds later, Ye Wei Qing exhaled a long breath, drenched in sweat from the looming shadow of death. Who wouldn’t fear it?

Fu Chenzi smiled and said, "Good, see, as long as you cooperate, we can avoid all this. Since you are the Young Master of the Black Demon Sect and you are out on a mission, once the mission is completed, it’s only reasonable that you return to the headquarters to report to the Sect Hierarch, right?"

Ye Wei Qing was momentarily stunned, then nodded. Indeed, what Fu Chenzi said made perfect sense!

Fu Chenzi continued, "During this operation, a group of people, due to their lack of strength and fear of death, sought to submit to you and became your subordinates, and now they will return with you to the headquarters of the Black Demon Sect. This shouldn’t violate any principles, right?"

All the surrounding eyes suddenly brightened.

Damn, can this really work?

I don’t need you to tell me the secrets of your Black Demon Sect. You just go home, and I, as your subordinate, will follow you back. It makes sense and doesn’t violate the Heavenly Dao, right?

Ye Wei Qing naturally understood Master Floating Cloud’s intentions, but still dared not object, knowing that if he did, he would have no further value and might well be killed immediately.

"Yes," he agreed.

Master Floating Cloud smiled slightly, "You see, doesn’t that simplify matters? We think the Black Demon Sect has great potential, so we’ve decided to join, but first, we need to visit the headquarters for an inspection. As the Young Master, you’ll take us there to decide whether we will join, that’s reasonable, isn’t it?"
