Chapter 1278: Blood Howl City Master
After killing the Ghost Hand, Ling Feng finally let out a sigh of relief, his body softened and he collapsed to the ground.
In order to deceive the Ghost Hand, Ling Feng had previously been forcibly enduring the Ghost Hand's attacks. His internal injuries were very real, with nothing false about them.
Because the Ghost Hand was very powerful, Ling Feng was actually somewhat worried, worried that he could not deceive him, but in the end, he still used his own blood to deceive the Ghost Hand.
"Ling Feng, are you okay?" As soon as the Ghost Hand died, the black chains binding the Bright Saintess disappeared, and the Bright Saintess rushed up immediately, holding Ling Feng, seeing him vomiting blood, her eyes turned red.
"How could you be so foolish? Can't you just dodge his attacks?" As she spoke, the Bright Saintess placed her hand on Ling Feng's back, and a pure Power of Light surged into Ling Feng's body, beginning to heal his severely injured internal organs.
Fortunately, Ling Feng's body was extremely resilient, so although the injuries were severe, they were not fatal. Under the treatment of the Bright Saintess, the injuries on Ling Feng's body quickly recovered seventy to eighty percent.
"By the way, I haven't had the chance to ask yet, what exactly happened?" Ling Feng said to the Bright Saintess: "This guy called Ghost Hand, who exactly is he? His strength seems to have reached the Peak of Divine Realm, right?"
"He's a Devil from the Blood Howl Camp, called Ghost Hand, and also the most powerful Divine General under the Blood Howl City Master. Since we killed him, the Blood Howl City Master definitely won't let us go!" At this moment, Jiete climbed up from the ground, wiped the blood from his mouth and said.
Blood Howl City Master? What kind of thing is that? Ling Feng looked utterly confused.
"Let me explain everything to you from the beginning!" Jiete took a deep breath and said: "This continent is called the Divine Cloud Continent, situated on the edge of the Divine Realm. The Blood Howl City Master is one of the few experts at the Sea of Gods Realm on this Divine Cloud Continent, and the Blood Howl Camp is the slave army created by the Blood Howl City Master!"
Speaking of the Blood Howl Camp, a gleam of hatred flashed in Jiete's eyes.
Ling Feng thoughtfully touched his chin and said: "According to what you say, this Divine Cloud Continent is not considered the central region of the Divine Realm, then?"
"Not only is it not the central region, on the contrary, this place is equivalent to the Land of Exile of the Divine Realm!" Jiete exhaled and said: "Compared to the Divine Realm Continent, the law of the jungle is displayed here to the fullest!"
"How so?" Ling Feng asked curiously: "Does that mean that even killing is not a problem here?"
Jiete laughed bitterly and said: "Not only is it not a problem, but if you display strong power, the Blood Howl City Master might even personally recruit you, of course, provided you can pledge allegiance to the Blood Howl City Master!"
Ling Feng squinted his eyes, listening to Jiete's account. This Divine Cloud Continent is simply a paradise for criminals, perhaps this also relates to the geographical location of the Divine Cloud Continent!
"Land of Exile, this place is a mix of good and bad, it's indeed a great opportunity for us to fish in troubled waters!" Ling Feng licked his lips and said: "Jiete, the reason you told me all this, you must have your own intentions, right?"
Jiete hesitated for a moment, somewhat awkwardly said: "I was merely assisted by the lady and wish to help you as much as possible!"
"Is that so?" Ling Feng said with a smile: "But why do I see dissatisfaction and the flames of hatred in your eyes? You actually want to use me as a tool for revenge, don't you?"
Upon hearing Ling Feng's words, Jiete's face changed slightly, and the Bright Saintess's face turned ugly: "Jiete, you really are... despicable!"
Jiete exhaled, his face showing a relieved expression: "I didn't expect that even my careful thoughts couldn't deceive you, it seems my choice was indeed right! Yes, I do have the intention to use your strength in my heart, I admit this point!"
"But... unless you willingly become the Blood Howl City Master's minion, otherwise, having killed Ghost Hand, the Blood Howl City Master will not let you go!" Jiete said seriously.
Ling Feng looked deeply at Jiete, and said: "You're right, you're absolutely right, I can't possibly become a minion of the Blood Howl City Master, so there will certainly be a fight between us and the Blood Howl City Master, therefore... to give myself a better chance, you should tell me everything you know!"
Ling Feng noticed that Jiete was hiding something, but he didn't mind because Jiete was telling the truth. Since Ghost Hand was a trusted subordinate of the Blood Howl City Master, having died at his hands, the Blood Howl City Master would definitely pursue and kill him relentlessly, to the point of no return!
Rather than being passively hunted down, it's better to take the initiative! But before doing so, Ling Feng needs to know the complete strength of the Blood Howl City Master, including all the information on this Divine Cloud Continent, and only Jiete can provide him with this information.
"I promise to tell you everything I know!" A smile appeared on Jiete's face, and a trace of ruthlessness flashed in his eyes, but whom this ruthlessness was directed at, no one knows now.
"This place is not suitable for a long stay, we should leave here first!" Ling Feng said, and then together with the Bright Saintess, they headed deeper into the Crying Ghost Valley, Jiete also followed along with Siteli.
An hour later, where the Ghost Hand died, a man wearing a blood-red cloak appeared, he took a deep breath and then opened his eyes: "Such abundant Blood Qi, it's been so long since I've smelled such vibrant and bloody energy, I really missed it!"
"But to think that you were killed by a little fledgling at the Early Stage of Divine Realm, I'm truly disappointed!" Blood Howl City Master looked at the Ghost Hand who had lost his life, and said blandly: "I originally wanted you to become stronger, but now I didn't expect you to die so cleanly, what a waste of all your Blood Qi!"
Speaking, the Blood Howl City Master waved his hand, and numerous Blood Bats rushed out from behind him, then swooped towards the Ghost Hand's corpse. In a moment, the Ghost Hand had been completely devoured by the bats, vanishing completely from this world.
"Such powerful Sword Intent, it seems this rookie at the Early Stage of Divine Realm is also a genius of the ages! I love nurturing such geniuses the most. I initially thought that apart from that fellow deep in the Crying Ghost Valley, there was nothing else in this Land of Exile that could interest me, but now I didn't expect to find another one, the heavens are really kind to me, hahaha..."
Laughing, the Blood Howl City Master waved his hand and disappeared into the air: "Since you've escaped to the depths of the Crying Ghost Valley, it's now time to catch you all at once. Don't think that hiding in the Crying Ghost Valley means I can't get to you, no one has ever escaped from my grasp, neither you nor that little kid!"
