Chapter 156: Disgraced Lilith
Alternate Space.
Blood-colored Church border.
In the small town shrouded in twilight, a group of bats gathered, gradually forming a petite figure.
Lilith stumbled and leaned against the mottled wall, her face extremely pale, her small body constantly trembling.
This once formidable Totem Level Blood Ancestor was now in dire straits!
"Damn..."
After the last Divine Secret Realm concluded.
Her strength had fallen to King Tier Five.
This information, somehow, had been discovered by a group of Blood Princes at Monarch Peak.
Strength is supreme for the Blood Ancestor.
Her decline in power was a blatant temptation for the Blood Race.
As long as they killed her, they could become the next Blood Ancestor.
Under such temptation, all the Monarch Peak Blood Race united to besiege her.
If she hadn't been Totem Level before, she would have perished in that battle.
But even so...
To successfully escape, she nearly exhausted all the energy in her body.
Her current level had even dropped below King Level, now only at Commander Level.
However, the true threat at this moment came not from the Blood Race.
As the Blood Ancestor, she had countless ways to avoid her kin's pursuit.
"Blood Ancestor, don't be in such a rush to leave~"
A frivolous voice came from the eaves.
Lilith jerked her head up, seeing a slender figure lazily swinging her legs, a mocking smile on her lips.
Damn it!
Lilith's face changed drastically.
Since she had fallen to Commander Level, this Demon Race had been shadowing her relentlessly.
Moreover, she had crossed paths with this Demon Race once.
Demon God Level!
The same level as her own.
Even though this Demon God belonged to one of the weaker races among the Demon Race—
The Disguiser race!
But for her current state...
It was still a deadly threat!
Yet this Demon Race had no intention of attacking, instead sticking to her like a leech.
She tried various methods but never managed to shake him off.
"Blood Ancestor, obediently hand over the Divine Pattern, you can't escape."
"Hmph!"
Lilith snorted coldly, her body suddenly exploding into countless bats, scattering in all directions.
The Demon Race on the eaves sneered disdainfully:
"Mere futile struggles!"
If it weren't for fearing this Blood Ancestor's dying counterattack, he would have finished her off by now.
However...
With time, this Blood Ancestor's power would undoubtedly weaken.
By then, the Divine Pattern would still fall into his hands!
Thinking this, he shook his head and followed at an unhurried pace.
But he didn't notice.....
At the spot where Lilith had stood, a drop of scarlet blood quietly seeped into a crack in the brick.
Much later, that drop of blood slowly coalesced into the form of a little girl.
Who am I?
Where is this?
The little girl blinked blankly, wobbling toward the bustling street and soon disappearing into the crowd.
...
On the other side.
After several days of trekking, Gu Xing finally reached the border of the Blood-colored Church from the Alternate Space.
Just as he landed...
A large group of Blood Race surrounded him.
"Human, no matter where you're from, being here makes you food and must be uniformly managed!"
The leading Blood Race bared its fangs, "Here, you have to play by the Blood Race's rules!"
Seeing this, Gu Xing frowned tightly.
The situation was worse than he had imagined.
Though the Blood-colored Church was ruled by the Blood Race, daily management was still self-governed by humans, requiring only periodic blood tribute.
Now, even the small border town was directly controlled by the Blood Race...
However, his silent demeanor angered the Blood Race.
"Courting death!"
The Blood Race could not bear it any longer and attacked directly!
Yet, facing this group of Blood Race...
Gu Xing didn't even bother summoning his Guardian Beast.
Moreover, having reached Commander Level, he also needed to train his actual combat ability.
This group of Blood Race came just in time!
He needed suitable real combat practice!
He glanced at his Attributes.
[Gu Xing]
[Guardian Beasts: Divine Angels, Natural Spirit, Ghost Race Qingshuang, Ghost Clan Feiyue]
[Contract Quota: 3/4]
[Level: Commander Tier Two]
[Talent: Sovereign, Soul-devouring]
[Power: 5000→6000]
[Constitution: 5000→6000]
[Spirit: 5000→6000]
[Speed: 5000→6000]
[Special State: Favor of the Human Race]
[Domain: Emperor's Might (Beast Master All Attribute Enhancement 300%), Absolute Forbidden Domain (Prohibit Any Domain)]
Even without activating Emperor's Might, all his attributes had reached 6000 points.
Additionally, with combat experience personally taught by Qingshuang...
His current strength was entirely on par with that of a Commander Level Guardian Beast.
So, against these riffraff Blood Race, he also wanted to try his hand personally.
However...
In the Beast Taming Space, Liu Li anxiously watched the outside world.
Although the strongest among the Blood Race was only Low Tier Commander, this was still Gu Xing's first time personally engaging, making her inevitably worried.
"No way! Master is a Beast Master and shouldn't take such risks himself!"
Liu Li said and was about to rush out of the Beast Taming Space.
She decided to handle these Blood Race herself.
But Qingshuang stopped her.
"No way!"
"The master isn't a delicate flower that needs protection; he can handle all of this himself!"
Qingshuang, being of the Ghost Race, naturally wished for her master to grow stronger and stronger.
Though she too worried about Gu Xing, she believed he could face it all himself.
Vera, who saw the two about to argue, held her forehead with a sigh.
She didn't know why, but recently, Qingshuang and Liu Li had been prone to arguments.
Could it be the mating season for the Angel Race and the Ghost Race?
She couldn't figure it out but decided to intervene:
"Sister Liu Li, Sister Qingshuang, please stop arguing~"
"I think both of you have a point!"
Before she could finish, two icy stares shot at her, making Vera shrink her neck in fright.
Forget it, forget it!
Let them argue!
She was just a little low-ranking elf, couldn't say anything!
However, even though she wasn't a match for Liu Li and Qingshuang....
She could still tease another little girl who was watching the show.
She sneaked a vine around the observing Fei Yue and then quickly left the Beast Taming Space.
"Eh?"
Fei Yue was suddenly wrapped in a green vine, and before she could react, the scene turned into a battlefield.
She blinked blankly, looking at Vera beside her.
What was the meaning of this?
Vera reached out and pinched Fei Yue's soft little face:
"Master is fighting; shouldn't we as Guardian Beasts be supporting on the sidelines?"
Fei Yue tilted her head, looking at Gu Xing and then at her own small build.
Her, support?
That can't be right!
Meanwhile, Gu Xing set his sights on the leading Commander Level Blood Race.
[Blood Race]
[Level: Commander Tier Three]
[Power: 10000]
[Constitution: 9000]
[Spirit: 7000]
[Speed: 8000]
[Skills: Blood Body, Blood Domain...]
Just an average level!
Capable of fighting!
