Chapter 102: Chapter 87: Proclaiming Himself Emperor

In the evening, Li Yuan walked out of the Demon Breeding Pavilion. Today, while interacting with the Demon Dogs, everything went smoothly without any hindrance.

However, the “Divine Soul Connection” would not occur so quickly.

This “connection” requires a process. Only by often mingling with the demon beasts could it suddenly succeed one day.

Li Yuan decided to spend his time in the Earth Pavilion after this since he was quite fond of those three Black Marquis.

Perhaps it was the hunter’s memory that made him somewhat partial to dogs.

…

Three days later… in the afternoon…

Another crate of Eighth Grade Demon Beast Meat was delivered to Li Yuan’s residence.

After Li Yuan returned in the evening and saw the demon beast meat, he instructed Xiaojie and Xiaomei to deliver it directly to Zhao Chunxin’s home the next afternoon.

The reason for not delivering it now was that during dusk, many Inner Sect disciples return from outside, making it too conspicuous and not very appropriate.

However…

There’s no such thing as an impenetrable wall in the world, and someone eventually found out about this.

…

Several more days passed, and on this day, the sky suddenly darkened as a torrential rain broke through the clouds and poured down on the earth.

A sturdy horse pulled a carriage, dashing in through the enormous black city gate and stopping in front of the “No. 14” residence.

The carriage curtain was swiftly lifted, and a tall, muscular figure leaped out of the carriage quickly, landing firmly on the ground.

The newcomer was none other than the Inner Sect genius Fang Jianlong.

He lived at “No. 14”.

From the number alone, one could tell that he was almost the first person below the Sect Leader, Vice Sect Leader, Fourth Elder, and the three Tributors of the Blood Saber Sect. After all, three other pavilions were the Demon Breeding Pavilion, the Puppet Pavilion, and the Blood Fury Hall.

Recently, this genius had been opening a martial arts hall in Datong Square, charging forward on the front line of the Blood Saber Sect’s rivalry with the Wei and Wu families. Not only did he survive, but he also seemed to have become even stronger. While he hadn’t broken into the Seventh Grade yet, he was only half a step away.

At this moment, he stood like an iron tower, with eyes full of anger.

He let the rain drench him, as if to use the icy coldness to quench his fury.

It was a long while before he took out a large umbrella. With a mighty shake of his form, the rainwater flew off him; then, he opened the umbrella and headed towards the Blood Fury Hall.

Upon arriving at the Blood Fury Hall, he put away the umbrella and allowed the rain to wash over him.

“Master Fang, the Sect Leader has gone out.”

“I’ll wait.”

“Master Fang… The rain is heavy outside, why not come inside and have a seat?”

“No need.”

Fang Jianlong calmly stood in the courtyard of the Blood Fury Hall until nightfall, when the world was all black, and he was soaked both inside and out, and only then did he meet the only man in a white robe in the Inner City.

Tie Sha walked from the corridor to the main hall of the Blood Fury Hall, stood under the eaves, scrutinized the sect’s genius, touched the curly beard on his chin, and said, “Feeling resentful, huh?”

“No, I don’t dare.”

“Not daring doesn’t mean it won’t be so.” Tie Sha sat directly under the eaves and beckoned, “Come here, sit by my side, let’s talk.”

“Okay.” Fang Jianlong walked over in large strides, his wet body sitting directly beside Tie Sha, then said straight to the point, “My younger brother has cultivated arduously to reach the Eighth Grade, yet he still lacks some Eighth Grade meat. I… I was wondering if there is any more Eighth Grade meat available in the sect for him.”

Tie Sha pondered for a moment, then said, “I understand.

You’re asking for the demon beast meat in Li Yuan’s hands.”

Fang Jianlong fell silent, then said, “He’s a genius, but can he compare to Cheng Bao?

If he can have it, why can’t Cheng Bao?”

Tie Sha said, “Do you know what he has done?”

Fang Jianlong said, “Demon Master!

But Sect Leader, if you ask yourself, who has ever succeeded in Shanbao County over these years?

The Wei Family, the Wu Family, none have succeeded! Our Blood Saber Sect has also tried, but what happened to that person? As soon as they opened the cage and took the demon beast out into the wild, they never returned, and all that was left behind was half a corpse, the other half eaten.

Li Yuan managed to tame a Ninth Grade Demon Beast, but does that mean he can tame an even stronger one?”

Tie Sha said coldly, “So… you want me to transfer the share of meat meant for him to your brother?”

Fang Jianlong hurriedly stood up and said, “I don’t dare.”

Tie Sha said coldly, “Again with the not daring.”

Fang Jianlong bowed his head in silence.

Tie Sha said, “Jianlong, in these chaotic times, our Blood Saber Sect merely holds a spot as a king on a mountain in Shanbao County.

But what about the world outside? Have you ever thought about it?

We need someone who can control demon beasts. Their cultivation path is more challenging than traditional martial arts, but the combat power they bring exceeds martial artists in the same realm by who knows how much!

You’re asking for meat for your brother! But have you thought about the future of the Blood Saber Sect?!”

Tie Sha’s voice gradually rose, ultimately shouting, “You are the future of the Blood Saber Sect, and so is Li Yuan!

You both are almost the future elders I’ve set in my heart!

You cannot accept him? Are you trying to create internal strife? Do you want to see the Blood Saber Sect collapse?!”

Fang Jianlong lowered his head: “I… I just heard he gave the demon beast meat to someone else?”

“He gave it to Zhao Chunxin, right?” Tie Sha said fiercely, “That’s his freedom, and also his sense of loyalty! He is passionate and righteous, yet steady and wise! He is our Blood Saber Sect’s disciple, just like you, both of you are!

Fang Jianlong, why are you targeting him?

He earned the resources from me by his own ability, so why do you harbor such thoughts?”

Fang Jianlong was silent, and after a long time, he said in a low voice, “I’m sorry, Sect Leader… I didn’t mean to provoke internal strife. I just thought that my brother could become another me, and giving the resources to him would bring greater benefits to the sect.”

“But right now, our Blood Saber Sect needs a Demon Master more.

Jianlong, don’t keep your eyes only on the county; my urgent desire to unify the entire county is also because the situation outside is getting more and more chaotic… I hope our Blood Saber Sect can become more robust so we can face the dangers ahead.”
