Chapter 40: Blood Demon
His hand was so weak, it was as weak as a dog's hand. The middle-aged man barely felt anything even though his neck was being strangled by him.
However, his cold gaze pierced his heart so that his body shivered from hand to toe.
He was still wondering why the youth who previously seemed very friendly had suddenly turned into such a demon.
The question he asked also confused him, why he was asking about that world.
It made him hesitate to answer even though he was now afraid.
Suddenly, one of the youths, who seemed to be the youngest among the three young people charged towards Luo Tian.
He shouted, "blood demon, let go of uncle Lei."
He unleashed his full strength so that his skin turned silvery as he sent his fist towards Luo Tian's head.
If that fist hit Luo Tian's head, it would definitely be enough to blow his head off.
But he is two realms above him, although the star energy is very weak, it is still enough to withstand the fist of a silver body.
His true self would definitely happily do that to train his star power.
However, he now thinks otherwise. He thought parrying the enemy's attacks with his own strength was a waste of time. His power should be used for slaughter, not to fend off dirty attacks from enemies.
"Black Flame," he called out in a low voice.
He was still rational, but he preferred to follow his heart's desire for this little thing.
Black Flame's figure then appeared by his side like a stone statue, he didn't emit any aura and didn't move his body.
The youth's fist finally landed on his chest.
Cracks...
Immediately after that the sound of bones breaking was heard, it sounded extremely loud and the youth instantly vomited blood while his body stumbled ten meters back.
But he didn't have time to stop yet, Black Flame suddenly stretched out his hand to pull him back.
He then grabbed the back collar of his clothes and hung his body in front of Luo Tian.
Seeing the person who was trying to attack him, the gloomy feeling in his heart increased drastically to the point where he wanted to cut off his head right then and there.
He could restrain himself from doing that, but he still slapped his face in order to slightly satisfy his heart's desire.
"You," he said.
The other two also looked at him angrily.
"What did you call me just now?" He asked.
"You are a blood demon." repeated the young man.
"Oh? Is there a part of me that doesn't look human."
He then turned his gaze to the middle-aged man.
"You better talk now, or I'll kill these kids one by one."
A sword appeared in his hand and he pointed it at them.
"Wait, wait..." The middle-aged man called Uncle Lei quickly became worried.
"I'll tell you," he said.
"Huh, you stupid man, you're only delaying this young master's time."
Luo Tian couldn't help but utter some harsh words.
"We are currently heading for the Immortal Dragon City."
"Immortal Dragon City? Heh, the people of this village really know taking names. But it seems that's not what I wanted to ask?"
"Erm, I'll explain it to you, but can you take us there?"
"Where is the city heading?"
"We just need to go west. About 20,000 thousand kilometers from here."
"Okay."
Luo Tian then looked at Black Flame, the latter immediately taking them on a fairly leisurely flight.
"Excuse me young master, may I ask you one more question?"
"What?"
Luo Tian's gaze narrowed slightly as he looked at her.
"This, are you from the immortal world?"
His question not only took Luo Tian by surprise, the three young people were also shocked.
But he thought it wouldn't be too strange for him to ask that question considering he'd already signaled it a few times.
Like, why would he ask about that world, with his power, how could he not know anything about the world.
Unless he's a blood demon who just arrived there. But apart from his suddenly violent demeanor, there was no sign that he was a blood demon.
"Yes." He nodded, not trying to hide.
His personality changes also make a difference to the way he decides things.
Of course, he didn't plan to reveal it to everyone, he only let the four of them know because he wanted to use them as his aides.
With Black Flame watching over them, the chances of them being able to leak the secret were absolutely zero percent.
After that, that middle-aged man or Zhou Lei began to explain to him about that world.
They were now on the hot cloud continent, one of the world's three great continents.
According to Zhou Lei, more than a hundred thousand years ago the continent was invaded by blood demons. They came from the dimensional cracks that were constantly appearing, they were few but they could control the beasts here.
In a short time, half of this continent had been taken over by them.
"In the end, we were able to survive because some geniuses managed to become immortal. They created a spiritual wall that divided the continent into two."
"Of course, it's not completely safe. Sometimes there are traitors from the human race who help them from within."
"Like what happened to us."
'Are they really traitors? Or they are people born of their seed.'
'But why did they manage to come to this world? Even though they may only be in the seven mortal realms, they still cause a lot of misery. Can't the grand paragons stop them?'
'Well, it doesn't matter. I came to this world to adventure, not to help them overcome misery.'
His original personality would have been indecisive about their fate, but his current personality didn't care at all.
With Black Flame's power, he could easily annihilate all of them, but as long as those spatial cracks kept appearing, new groups could still keep coming.
"By the way, young master, why do the immortals never return after going to the immortal world. Before they left, they said they would ask for help in the immortal world. I heard that in the immortal world there is The Heavenly Palace with a heavenly army that will protect the weak."
Luo Tian, "..."
He looked at the middle-aged man strangely.
In the end, he chose not to answer.
