The Story Never Ends

Chapter 76 - Edgar Became A Devil?

In the main hall of The Blood Saber Sect, an old man was sitting on the throne listening to the reports made by his disciples who were standing infront of him.

"Sect Master, we have lost half of our savings after giving our spirit mines to those sects. It will take at least 5 years to recover from that," the disciple was nervous while reporting this thinking that the Sect Master would be angry. His back was already filled with sweat. But the Sect Master didn't respond to him which made him sigh in relief.

The other disciple on the side didn't bother about this and was in a good mood, "The messenger that was stationed in Lilium City has just returned back. According to him, Senior Brother Daxton had defeated the core disciple of the Earth Fortress Sect and managed to secure our rank in the Conference. However, after winning they didn't stay until the end of the Conference but rather left with the elders."

He was about to continue when he felt the temperature in the hall suddenly dropping by a few degrees. Not only him, but the other disciple was already about to freeze. He knew that the Sect Master was angry. But why did he become angry after listening to the good news? He was confused but he didn't dare to ask.

All of a sudden, the Sect Master stood up and released his aura which made both of them kneel on the ground.

"Leave!" He waved his hands and both of them flew out of the hall. He then looked in the direction of the window and saw a brown streak of light coming towards the hall.

"Bang!"

The two disciples fell on the ground outside and looked at each other. Then they shook their heads.

"I thought that it was good news."

"Yeah, me too."

"Let's forget about it. He might get angry again if we stay over here."

"We should leave."

***

Inside the hall, the Sect Master was looking at the brown-colored creature with anger on his face. Indeed, it was the one who had come out of the body of Edgar. It was floating in the air with its head lowered.

"You.."

He wanted to curse out loud. But he controlled himself and asked, "What happened?"

The creature was full of anger, "It was the disciple of the Bone and Devil Sect. He managed to kill me when I was injured."

"But this was not the most surprising thing. I thought that I had died but I don't know how I became like this and survived. It even helped me to escape."

"So, I immediately ran over here to explain it to you and I want to know what I have become. Seeing that you were not amazed after seeing me, I am sure you know about it." This was the thing that it really wanted to know.

"What? You lost against a disciple?" The Sect Master didn't bother about why he had become like this but asked about the disciple.

"Yes. I don't know how Thaddeus found that disciple. But he was very strong. He should be at most at the middle stage of Golden Core State," it replied but deep down it was eager to know the reason for its transformation.

"Hmm." The Sect Master looked at it suspiciously.

"How could a disciple be so strong and how did you even get injured in the first place?"

Seeing the Sect Master getting suspicious, it got scared and immediately started explaining everything from the beginning.

After a while, listening to everything, The Sect Master asked in a calm voice, "So, the Bone and Devil Sect managed to improve their rank and even protect their grounds. Not only that, you guys even went to ambush them and faced a lot of troubles there. You even died."

It got nervous after hearing the calm voice. It knew that the Sect Master was outraged. He really wanted those grounds of the Bone and Devil Sect. But now it has failed.

However, thinking about those elders he immediately spoke, "The elders should have completed the task. Even though that Lion was strong, it should not be a match against the three of them."

"What do you know? Do you even know how strong a Devil Commander is?" The Sect Master bellowed and heavy pressure was released from his body.

The creature couldn't take it and fell to the ground. It couldn't even move a single step.

"I won't be surprised even if those elders die over there. A Devil Commander is too strong. Even late-stage Golden Core Cultivators might have trouble if they are not careful." The Sect Master then stared at it with an ugly smile on his face, "Do you want to know what you have become?"

Due to the strong pressure, it couldn't speak properly. So, it only nodded its head.

"Haha, you have become a devil." The Sect Master laughed out loud.

It felt pain after hearing this. It had somewhat guessed it. But listening to it from the Sect Master made it dismayed.

With great difficulty, it looked at the Sect Master and barely managed to speak, "Why? How did I become like this? I don't want this."

"I would prefer death rather than live like this."
