At this moment, they.
Where was there any trace of contempt on their faces? All that remained was deep shock.
So were the Miao experts.
So was Su Tuo, and so was Su Keduo.
Everyone stared at Bai Zihe blankly, as if looking at a freak.
This was because.
The "Welcome Guest Ritual" that Su Keduo spoke of was actually prepared for Miao people who had committed crimes.
There was a rule in the Miao tribe that every matter had a sliver of hope.
If a Miao prisoner could survive the three trials, it would be considered a blessing from heaven, and the Miao tribe would no longer pursue his crimes!
But since Su Keduo had been sensible, no one had ever passed the three trials.
Therefore, they wanted to use this opportunity to kill Bai Zihe.
But to their astonishment, Bai Zihe passed the three trials so easily.
The shock in Su Keduo's heart could be imagined.
"Patriarch Su."
Bai Zihe came out from within, his expression unchanged.
"The three Welcome Guest Rituals have been passed. Now it is time for you to fulfill your promise and answer all questions."
"Tell me, where is the Gu King?"
Su Keduo's pupils suddenly contracted.
He knew very well that Bai Zihe would bring up this question, but he did not dare to answer.
This was because the Gu King had long been controlled by the Evil King.
The entire southwestern Miao territory now followed the Evil King, and no one dared to disobey him!
And the Gu King...
Was a forbidden existence for the Evil King.
Throughout the entire Miao territory, no one dared to mention it.
Unless they no longer wanted their lives!
As a trusted subordinate of the Evil King, Su Keduo naturally would not leak any information about the Gu King.
Because he understood the Evil King's methods even better.
"Mr. Bai."
"This question..."
Su Keduo said indifferently, "I cannot answer it."
Cannot answer?
So all his efforts in passing the three trials were just him being toyed with like a monkey?
Bai Zihe was furious, staring coldly at Su Keduo, his voice piercing the heavens: "Patriarch Su, incorrect answer."
"I will give you another chance to answer."
As his voice fell, a chilling killing intent was unleashed without any concealment.
In an instant, this world was engulfed in a tempest, precarious and unstable.
Su Keduo was like a small boat in a massive wave, constantly on the verge of being capsized and destroyed by a single breaker!
The many Miao experts were enraged.
One by one, they drew their weapons, wanting to fight Bai Zihe to the death.
But before they could get close, they were swept away by a vortex of killing intent, smashing heavily onto the ground and spitting up blood non-stop.
On the field, only Su Keduo, a Miao person, remained standing.
"I told you."
Su Keduo gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice, "I cannot answer this question."
Rumble!
The next moment, a surge of waves struck, turning the world upside down.
Bai Zihe flashed in front of Su Keduo and grabbed his neck: "Su Keduo, do you really think I don't dare to kill you?"
He squinted his eyes and gradually tightened his grip.
A powerful sense of suffocation washed over him, and Su Keduo's face turned red, gasping for breath, on the verge of death.
In this instant, many thoughts raced through his mind.
If he didn't speak.
He would die, his neck would be broken by Bai Zihe.
If he told Bai Zihe.
He would also die, tortured to death by the Evil King in various ways, dying in the most tragic and painful manner.
Their Su family would also be uprooted by the Evil King, leaving no one alive.
Even their ancestors, who had died for eighteen generations, would not rest in peace, their graves exhumed...
Death awaited him from both sides.
However, Bai Zihe could offer a quick end!
Su Keduo closed his eyes. He had made his choice.
Seeing his expression, Bai Zihe knew he would not speak, and his eyes immediately turned cold.
"Since you have made your choice."
"Then..."
Just as Bai Zihe was about to kill Su Keduo.
A bloody figure streaked across the sky.
"Heh heh heh..."
The bloody figure landed in the courtyard, hands behind its back, standing defiantly.
As if the entire gathering was beneath its notice!
Upon seeing the arrival, joy instantly surged onto Su Keduo's face.
He was being strangled by Bai Zihe, but he still managed to cry out with difficulty: "Lord Blood, save me!"
Lord Blood glanced at Bai Zihe with disdain and said proudly, "Don't worry, since I am here, you will naturally be safe."
With that said.
He flashed to Bai Zihe's side.
"Kid, let him go, and I can pretend that nothing happened."
"Otherwise..."
Rumble!
A powerful killing intent, almost solid, shot towards Bai Zihe.
In an instant, the courtyard was enveloped in a bloodthirsty aura of slaughter, originating from this suddenly appearing Lord Blood.
"This is..."
"A Martial Grandmaster!"
Ji Xueyun's expression became solemn as she sensed this killing intent.
Yan Zhiyun also immediately became much more cautious.
Although Bai Zihe had killed Grandmasters before.
This person's aura was sinister and strange, unlike the Martial Grandmasters of the Central Plains. He might possess some special abilities, and they had to face him with caution.
Lord Blood smiled faintly.
A Martial Grandmaster, this was his confidence!
Bai Zihe, impacted by his killing intent, sensed it slightly and let out a cold laugh.
"Blood Demon, you're not hiding away being a cowardly turtle, yet you dare to show your face here..."
"Do you really think I can't see through your identity?"
Hearing this, Lord Blood was instantly shocked and dismayed.
His face a mixture of emotions, he stared at Bai Zihe and denied, "What Blood Demon or not, don't try to change the subject."
"Release him quickly!"
"Otherwise, I will be merciless with you!"
Seeing that he would not confess until faced with the inevitable, Bai Zihe uttered a few words.
"Bloodthirsty Sect, Third Elder, Blood Demon."
"Am I correct?"
This time, the Blood Demon could no longer remain composed.
That's right.
He was the Third Elder of the Bloodthirsty Sect, the Blood Demon, as Bai Zihe had called him.
However, his identity had never been revealed to anyone, and he had been in hiding for many years. Only after breaking through to the Grandmaster realm did he dare to appear again.
How could this person in front of him know?
The Blood Demon's eyes glinted with ferocity as he stared fixedly at Bai Zihe.
He had already developed murderous intent!
The Bloodthirsty Sect had aided overseas forces and hunted down many experts of Great Xia, making it an evil force wanted by the Great Xia authorities.
Once his identity was exposed...
He would be relentlessly hunted, with no peace in sight!
"Su Keduo."
"This person is a public enemy of Great Xia, and you people of Miao territory are harboring him..."
"It seems the waters in Miao territory are indeed deep."
Bai Zihe reprimanded them for a moment, then a bloody figure attacked.
It was the Blood Demon, who had made up his mind.
"Trying to kill me to silence me?"
Bai Zihe had perfectly grasped his intentions.
The Blood Demon let out a sinister laugh, not denying it: "As long as I kill you all, who will know that I am the renowned Blood Demon?"
Swish!
His mouth was not the only thing moving; his hands were also in action.
With a fierce claw strike, he tore through the air, creating several bloody streaks that shot towards Bai Zihe.
Bai Zihe remained unperturbed, raising his hand and slapping out.
Boom!!!
The two met, like metal clashing against stone.
The Blood Demon was no match, and was directly sent flying, spitting up blood in mid-air.
"A bit of skill."
The Blood Demon stood up, his eyes blood-red.
Then.
He suddenly summoned a ball of flame.
The flame flickered unstably, surrounded by blood qi, even burning the air, making a sizzling sound.
In his hand, it looked like a pool of blood.
A terrifying sight!
