More geniuses would be slain in an instant!
Only the top prodigies within the same realm could fight a Blood Demon!
Yet even then, defeat far outnumbered victory!
Since emerging into the world, the Blood Demon Clan had been far too arrogant and overbearing. They proclaimed themselves heavenly demonic creatures born in response to fate, looking down on people of every other race.
In ancient times, one supreme expert could no longer endure it. Weapon in hand, he charged straight into the Blood Demon Clan's lair.
More and more people followed afterward. The battlefield gradually expanded until it finally spread across the entire Blood Demon Clan.
The situation was unimaginably brutal!
Too many mighty experts fell. Rumor had it that no fewer than dozens of Quasi-Emperors had died!
But the Blood Demon Clan was ultimately defeated!
After that ancient battle, the Blood Demons suffered devastating losses. Only a small number of clansmen escaped, and they never amounted to anything again.
Though the Blood Demon Clan had not been exterminated after that battle, they had been beaten into the shadows. Every surviving Blood Demon became extremely low-key, even concealing their lair.
Who would have thought that they would now dare to ambush Tianji Zhenren?
Did they look down on the Backer Sect?
"Looks like they think they can do it again!"
Yun Tian Zhenren sneered.
The Blood Demon Clan's blood poison was extremely difficult to remove. Once it fused into the victim's blood, it was nearly impossible to separate.
Only a Saint-level mighty expert, using a supreme divine art, could purge Tianji Zhenren's blood poison.
With the Celestial Realm strength of the few of them, there was little they could do!
Moreover, the Blood Demon who had poisoned Tianji Zhenren was likely an Approaching Dao Realm expert!
Tianji Zhenren had been fortunate enough merely to escape death!
Hua Yunfei said, "Sect Leader, that Saint Pill from earlier is enough to remove the blood poison, and it can also help Martial Uncle Tianji recover from all his injuries!"
"Indeed. Saint Pills are rare, so they must possess miraculous effects!"
Gou Yuan Zhenren agreed.
Yun Tian Zhenren understood that although the Saint Pill was precious, it had to be used now. He swiftly took it out and fed it to Tianji Zhenren.
Those Who Offend the Backer Sect Shall Be Executed, No Matter How Far Away They Are
"Have you heard? Chief Tianji got his chrysanthemum blown apart!"
"I heard, I heard! Hahaha..."
"Hehe, that old fellow is usually nothing but a charlatan. So even he has a day when he suffers!"
"I'd say the Sect Leader and the other chiefs will laugh at him too."
Someone had no idea who leaked the news.
The matter of Tianji Zhenren having his chrysanthemum blown apart had already spread throughout the Backer Sect.
Outer disciples, inner disciples, and even the sect's true disciples were all holding back their laughter as they stared toward Backer Peak.
"Still, jokes are jokes. Someone injured the chief of one of our sect's peaks—it is no different from slapping the Backer Sect across the face!"
A young man in golden robes stood atop a mountain peak, his expression cold and killing intent simmering in his eyes!
"Exactly. When the Backer Sect was founded, one iron rule was established."
"Those who offend the Backer Sect shall be executed, no matter how far away they are!"
The young man in silver robes beside him drew a long saber artifact, a vicious gleam flashing in his eyes. He was a true disciple of Limitless Peak and had inherited Wuji Zhenren's violent temper!
"All disciples, heed my command!"
A dignified, profound voice rang out from Backer Peak, solemn and majestic as it echoed throughout the Backer Sect for a long time.
"Outer disciples, present!"
At the outermost perimeter of the Backer Sect, countless young figures gathered. Their auras surged forth as their voices thundered, fiercely answering the sect's summons!
"Inner disciples, receive the command!"
In the deeper regions, groups upon groups of inner disciples, dragons among men and brimming with heroic spirit, shot into the sky together and loudly answered the sect's summons.
"The sect's true disciples, present!"
The true disciples were the sect's core. Each peak had only a few.
Yet those few erupted with an aura even more terrifying than all the outer and inner disciples combined, soaring straight into the heavens!
"All elders, heed my command!"
"This old man is present!"
Apart from Daoyuan Peak, each of the other six peaks had terrifying old men standing upon them.
They were all elders of their respective peaks!
"Yesterday, the chief of Celestial Secrets Peak was ambushed by the Blood Demon Clan and nearly fell. By the iron rules of our sect, the Blood Demon Clan must be executed!"
"Must be executed!"
"Must be executed!"
"Must be executed!"
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
The voices shook the heavens and rang like thunder. Their vast momentum swept across the nine skies!
The hearts of the entire sect were joined as one!
Bullying Tianji Zhenren meant bullying them—bullying the entire Backer Sect!
That was a capital crime!
They must be executed!
"Those who offend the Backer Sect shall be executed, no matter how far away they are!"
Sect Leader Yun Tian Zhenren shouted. His imposing voice completely ignited the battle intent of the Backer Sect's disciples!
He personally led the group, inviting out the Backer Sect's publicly known Approaching Dao Realm patriarch. Then, together with a host of experts, they entered the sect's spatial domain gate and teleported toward the Blood Demon Clan!
A great battle was about to begin!
Hua Yunfei brought Ye Bufan back to Daoyuan Peak.
He did not go with them. The Backer Sect still needed someone to guard it.
He was not the only one. Xiaxuan Zhenren had not gone either.
The two of them were responsible for guarding the home.
Yun Tian Zhenren led four chiefs, along with a host of elders and disciples, straight toward the Blood Demon Clan's secret realm!
Moreover, the Backer Sect's publicly known Approaching Dao Realm patriarch had gone with them as well!
Ye Bufan looked into the distance. He had not expected such a major incident to happen just after joining the Backer Sect.
What surprised him even more was the Backer Sect's unity!
It was as though they were one body—a family!
Dao Yi Immortal Sect was completely different from this place, filled with schemes and intrigues.
A joke was a joke. They truly laughed at Tianji Zhenren, but the fury in their hearts was just as real!
This time, the Blood Demon Clan was afraid they had met disaster!
They had kicked an iron plate!
"Master, is it really all right for you not to go with them?"
"Hehe, Bufan, remember this: what you see may not be the truth. None of these martial uncles of yours are easy to provoke. Every one of them hides their true strength! And that includes everyone in the Backer Sect!"
Hua Yunfei's words piqued Ye Bufan's interest.
Hidden their true strength?
Could it be that far more people had gone than he had seen?
Or did it mean something else?
Hua Yunfei glanced into the distance, the smile on his face deepening.
Compared to the art of lying low, those people were the true seniors—the real experts.
