Chapter 491: Chapter 491: The Mysterious Great Hall_1

”It should be right ahead.” A member of the Blood Wolf group, holding some kind of device, said as the group quickly moved forward, and soon they arrived at the valley where Ye Luo and his companions had reached during the day.

”The Miao Tribe’s Forbidden Land? The Blood Demon Lair is very likely inside.” A Semi-Saint from the Blood Wolf group said in a deep voice, looking at the text on the stele.

”I feel a dangerous presence, there might be a master inside.” Another Semi-Saint from the Blood Wolf group voiced with concern.

”Blood Shadow, what do you suggest we do now?” All of the Semi-Saints turned their gaze to Blood Shadow, as he was in charge of the operation, so naturally, they would follow his orders.

”The five of us will go in to scout first, the rest stay outside,” Blood Shadow said coldly, and the five Semi-Saints entered the cave. Soon, a series of booming sounds could be heard from within.

Blood Shadow and the other four emerged from the cave, their faces looking extremely grim.

”This Forbidden Land sure is bustling today, with one group after another arriving. Who might you be?”

The Forbidden Land Elder who had appeared before once again showed up, his body exuding a fearsome aura that enveloped the entire valley. Blood Shadow and others paled, feeling great oppression, and began to breathe raggedly.

”It’s a Saint Realm master, evacuate immediately,” Blood Shadow shouted harshly.

”You don’t look like good folks. Since you’ve intruded upon the Forbidden Land, you must die,” the Elder said, his figure flickering, appearing in front of one of them.

With a single palm strike, a Semi-Saint of the Blood Wolf group was blasted away, convulsing once on the ground before losing all signs of life.

Seeing this, the remaining Blood Wolf members’ faces turned extremely ugly as they fled toward the outside of the valley.

The Forbidden Land Elder’s figure kept flickering. In a moment, two more Semi-Saints lay on the ground. Three Semi-Saints met a gruesome end so quickly, demonstrating the Elder’s terrifying power.

However, at this point, Blood Shadow and another Semi-Saint of the Blood Wolf group, along with other assassins, managed to flee the valley.

The Elder did not pursue but sent out a strange sound that echoed far and wide, reaching into the Miao Village.

”This is bad, an enemy has entered the Forbidden Land.”

Miao Chang’an and a group of Miao Elders rushed out upon hearing the sound.

”Miao Lie, take someone and go immediately; we can’t have anything happen to the Forbidden Land, and the Elders, you must go as well,” Miao Chang’an said in a deep voice.

”Understood, Clan Leader.” Miao Lie nodded his head, leaving the place with several Elders. Miao Chang’an’s brows furrowed, his eyes flickering.

As Miao Lie was leading a group of Miao powerful fighters to the Forbidden Land, they encountered the escaping Blood Wolf group members.

”Who are you?”

Seeing the group of assassins dressed in black clothing, Miao Lie bellowed a command.

”Attack!” ordered Blood Shadow, his face ghastly pale, as a throng of Blood Wolf assassins wielding their weapons charged forward, clashing directly with the other side.

The battle was incredibly fierce, raging for over half an hour, during which a great number of the Blood Wolf assassins were killed.

Another Semi-Saint from the Blood Wolf group fell in combat, besieged and slain by several Miao Elders, leaving only Blood Shadow and a few Blood Wolf members to escape, while the Miao side also suffered significant casualties.

In the darkness of the night, torches blazed throughout the Miao Village, illuminating the entire community.

Miao Lie led his people back, and the bodies of the Miao people along with those of the Blood Wolf assassins were all brought back.

Miao Chang’an and Second Elder both appeared here, their faces solemn as they looked at the bodies of more than a dozen Miao Tribe people.

”Clan Leader, Second Elder, these are the people who sneaked into the Forbidden Land, though a few managed to escape, the rest were all eradicated,” someone reported.

”But two people had just broken into the Forbidden Land during the day, and now this group has sneaked in as well; it seems a bit too coincidental. Could there be a connection?” Miao Lie spoke with a flicker in his eyes.

Miao Chang’an and Second Elder both frowned, and the Second Elder spoke coldly, ”Bring that person out here.”

Soon, Ye Luo was brought forth, and Second Elder directly asked, ”Do these people have anything to do with you?”

Ye Luo’s gaze swept over the corpses of the Blood Wolf Assassins on the ground, a trace of shock flashing through his eyes.

”They are assassins from an organization, what do they have to do with me?” Ye Luo said indifferently.

”But these people also aimed for the Forbidden Land, and you had intruded into the Forbidden Land just earlier today; the timing is too much of a coincidence for you to say they’re unrelated,” Miao Lie stared at Ye Luo and huffed coldly.

”Father, Second Elder, these people really have nothing to do with Ye Luo,” Miao Xiaoling ran over and said.

”Father, these are the same people who kidnapped me yesterday. It was fortunate that I encountered Ye Luo and his group, and was rescued. They absolutely cannot be related,” Miao Xiaoling explained.

”Indeed, I entered the Forbidden Land earlier only to see if I could find the people of the Miao Tribe, I had no clue at all about what was inside the Forbidden Land, and the appearance of these people in Miaojiang this time might have been suggestive of a certain intent,” Ye Luo spoke up.

After pondering for a moment, Miao Chang’an said, ”Miao Lie, notify everyone to strengthen the surveillance of the Forbidden Land. Report immediately if there are any developments.”

”Yes, Clan Leader,” Miao Lie nodded.

Meanwhile, Ye Luo watched the corpses of the Blood Wolf Assassins, wondering about their purpose.

In the urban area of Dian Nan, Can Wolf and his group returned here.

”Can Wolf, what should we do now?” The remaining Blood Wolf Assassins spoke with lingering fear.

”Report the situation to Blood Shadow immediately,” Can Wolf said coldly.

In Huaxia, at the Blood Wolf Organization base.

A man strode fast into a room and knelt down halfway to speak respectfully, ”Sir, Can Wolf has sent news back that they have discovered the location of the Blood Demon Lair, but there are Saint Realm experts guarding it. They suffered heavy losses and in the end, only Can Wolf and a few subordinates managed to escape.”

”Finally found the Blood Demon Lair!” Blood Shadow’s crimson eyes glittered with excitement, his body emanating a terrifying aura of bloodthirsty qi.

”I must report this matter to the Sect Master immediately,” Blood Shadow murmured to himself.

Three hours later, Blood Shadow arrived at a mysterious place in Huaxia, where there stood a blood-colored great hall.

In the center of this great hall was a high platform built from countless skeletons, and atop it sat a chair composed of numerous skulls. Everything here seemed incredibly sinister and terrifying, giving one the sensation of entering Hell itself.

”Blood Shadow seeks an audience with the Sect Master,” Blood Shadow called out, half-kneeling reverently.

Whoosh!

An intense wind blew through as a figure in a blood-red robe, with a sinister face and an aura of immense pressure, emerged there with a hoarse voice.
