Chapter 375 Chapter 374: Jelly Town's Rumors! Blood Sect's Arrival!

"You want to act as the replacement for demon meat? That sounds crazy!" Evi's eyes shot up when he heard Yoze's plan.

"But is it? All I am giving up is some of my blood and spiritual energy to help you grow. As long as I don't lose too much blood and spiritual energy, I will recover quite quickly."

"Unlike other demons, I can recover my spiritual energy naturally without devouring it from other creatures. For example, I had sacrificed 400 strands of my spiritual energy to create these four blood pills."

"This sounds like a lot, but I can recover this much in a day. Other than me sacrificing my spiritual energy, the most important aspect of absorbing spiritual energy seems to be that their attributes have to be the same for maximum efficiency." Yoze calmly explained.

"Yoze, while this sounds nice, doesn't it sound weird that I will have a part of you inside me?" Evi asked while touching his cheeks.

"Don't make it sound weird. You are just consuming some of my blood. Go ahead if you want to think about it like eating medium-rare steak." Yoze's eyes twitched.

"Fine, how much did I absorb? My mind feels very relaxed, so I must have absorbed quite a bit of your spiritual energy."

"Nope, your spiritual energy is the green attribute and takes the shape of a 20-point star or a sunflower. Since I also have the green attribute, you were able to absorb that part with nearly 100 percent efficiency."

"Great,"

"But that only makes up 17 percent of my total spiritual energy, so for the rest, you were able to absorb 20 percent of it, which isn't too bad. That means you were able to absorb about 33 percent of all the spiritual energy inside your blood pill." After staying silent, Yoze eventually calculated how much Evi had absorbed and told him.

"That's bad. I only absorbed 33 strands in total from your blood pill."

"Don't think about it like that. You aren't terrible, at least average."

"That doesn't make me feel better." Evi pouted.

"Anyways, it seems that the absorption rate for different attributes of spiritual energy is constant, so there is nothing we can fix unless you start your spiritual body cultivation. Right now, we need to focus on something we can control: your martial arts." Yoze explained as he began to take off Evi's clothes, to his confusion.

"Why are you taking off my clothes?"

"We are going to continue training. Take your last blood pill and start training with me."

"B-but we are still inside the town hall. What if people get weird ideas about what we are doing?"

"It's fine. We are going to start with the splits first. Remember, your butt needs to touch the floor. If you can't do it, I will help you." Yoze calmly said with a warm smile that looked almost demonic in Evi's heart.

...

A few days passed since Yoze and Evi had made it to Jelly Town. Compared to the homelessness that had consumed Jelly Town when they arrived, it was full of life. Even though the number of people who resided in the town was a far cry from before, the number of people who returned had doubled its population.

This sudden change in Jelly Town's situation was all due to the numerous rumors that suddenly spread through Jelly Town and the nearest five towns and villages. Rumors that Jelly Town had been bought solely for the nearby mine contradicted rumors that the town would be revitalized and developed.

No matter the type of information that reached the ears of old and current Jelly Town residents, they would hear or see news of the opposite. No one knew who spread these rumors, but some things proved true, such as reduced business taxes, which helped cause the old Jelly Town residents to become hopeful that their town was being developed and not abandoned.

The one town impacted the most by these rumors was Lilca Town, which had seen the largest influx of Jelly Town residents. As a small town with a population size of several hundred people, it was a welcome surprise when the mayor of Lilca Town discovered the drastic decline of its rival Jelly Town.

"Reverend, how did your investigation go?"

Inside a secret room in Lilca Town's town hall, the tough and harsh town mayor, whom all the residents had grown accustomed to, was putting on a gentle smile. If it weren't for the scars covering his face and his roughly trimmed beard, most people would have thought he was a merchant.

Across from him was a young man in his late twenties who looked bored as he lazily tossed a blood-covered dagger. Suddenly, the young man grabbed his bloody dagger and threw it between the mayor's legs, causing his entire body to tremble from fear.

"The investigation was boring as usual. The so-called new mayor of Jelly Town is an ordinary young person. The only person of importance in that god-forsaken town was the female Blood Master who failed to conceal herself."

"These wandering Blood Masters disgrace the title of Blood Master! Any ordinary Blood Master of the Blood Sect can kill her with ease. Oh, from the look on your face, you weren't interested in this information." The young man said as he narrowed his eyes.

When the mayor heard the young man's dissatisfaction, his heart dropped, blood drained from his face, and he felt a painful sensation coming from his right hand. Looking down, he saw that he was missing a finger and felt dread fill his heart as he couldn't even see the young man move.

"No, no, no, Reverend, you misunderstood. I was dissatisfied that the Blood Master wasn't up to your expectations. From the rumors, I had thought that the Endless Wealth Company would send someone who could at least entertain your excellency!" Lilca Town's mayor explained while concealing the pain he was in.

He didn't dare to show any sign that he was suffering as he knew that it would only excite the young man in front of him. The students of the Blood Sect were evil and twisted to their core. Only pain and suffering could bring them joy, so having this devil in his town was the worst thing that could have happened to him and his town.
