1123: I like your behavior.

Facing the Bloodcloth Old Ancestor's words, the three Demons successively showed expressions of doubt.

"To be able to discover our existence, you human are indeed not bad, but we are not here for you."

The Bloodcloth Old Ancestor had been with Su Liang all along, and on the surface, there was no visible conflict or hatred between the two.

Therefore, the three Demons all treated the Bloodcloth Old Ancestor as one of their own.

After speaking, the fish-headed Demon leading them looked with a pair of colorless eyes towards Su Liang behind him: "Destined Person, we have come to take you back."

This sentence instantly shifted the Bloodcloth Old Ancestor's attention to Su Liang.

And Su Liang himself, at this moment, was stirred into intense emotional turmoil by the other party's words directly addressing him: "You are here to pick me up?"

"You are the Destined Person chosen by our Lord, an existence who will surely become a Divine Servant in the future. We are taking you back to help you quickly grow strong."

The fish-headed Demon was considered the clearest-thinking among the three Demons, capable of expressing his meaning clearly when speaking.

"I am the Destined Person, destined to become a Divine Servant?!" Hearing this evaluation, Su Liang's heart pounded, and his excitement even flushed his face with a rosy hue.

"Not sent by that existence?" The Bloodcloth Old Ancestor frowned, looking at the three fellows before him, then glanced at Su Liang, his originally solemn expression relaxing slightly.

"Alright, I'll go with you!" Su Liang's reply was exceptionally firm, and he even started walking towards the three Demons in front of him!

Whether it was his desire to become a Divine Servant or his rejection of the Bloodcloth Old Ancestor fellow, Su Liang wanted to leave immediately.

The three Demons nodded slightly at this; the task of taking the Divine Servant back was much easier than they had imagined.

However.

At this moment, the Bloodcloth Old Ancestor slowly clasped his hands behind his back, tilted his face slightly backward, and looked down at Su Liang and the three Demons: "Wait."

One sentence drew the attention of all nearby existences to him.

"Did I agree to let you go? Su Liang?"

In the White-Haired Old Man's words, there was a hint of questioning and severity.

Although the Bloodcloth Old Ancestor himself hadn't figured out why Su Liang was involved with these fellows, he understood that the kid beside him already knew some of his secrets.

Now, he could only move under his watchful eye, otherwise, he would only be able to keep his secrets as a dead person!

After this voice fell, Su Liang suddenly felt a twitch in his heart!

This was the blood seed the Bloodcloth Old Ancestor had planted in him before! It was enough to control his life and death!

With a stiff expression, Su Liang's walking steps also halted.

This situation caused two of the three Demons, excluding the fish-headed Demon, to lock their sharp and dangerous gazes onto the Bloodcloth Old Ancestor.

"It seems, Destined Person, you are not with this person."

The fish-headed Demon's words, as if he had a piece of ice in his mouth, contained a chilling implication!

"Roar!" The eight-armed Demon let out a savage roar, and the next moment, its overall presence rose another level.

Eight arms, eight sandbag-sized fists, slammed down towards the Bloodcloth Old Ancestor, covering him!

"Dong!"

Rocks shattered, the earth trembled, and grass and trees flew everywhere.

The violent commotion, like a meteor falling from Heaven, caused countless birds and beasts in the mountains to cry out in alarm and flee.

This power was beyond comparison, even for the strongest Knight in the world!

Dust filled the area where the eight-armed Demon and the Bloodcloth Old Ancestor were located.

Su Liang held his breath and focused, his eyes fixed on that area!

As the thick dust gradually thinned, Su Liang's eyes gradually widened!

He saw.

The eight fists, infused with the eight-armed Demon's full power, were at this moment easily blocked by the Bloodcloth Old Ancestor with one hand, while the other was clasped behind his back!

"You have some strength, comparable to a thousand-year-old monster. This level of power doesn't seem like something that can be reached through the normal progression of this World's Cultivation system."

"But ultimately, it's too weak. Looking at it this way, it's indeed unlikely you are related to that one."

The Bloodcloth Old Ancestor commented plainly, and then the power in his hand suddenly intensified!

"Bang!"

Under the infusion of power, one of the eight-armed Demon's arms was directly crushed and exploded!

As the blood mist enveloped the area, the Bloodcloth Old Ancestor suddenly reached out a hand towards the eight-armed Demon. The five fingers on his palm, at this moment, had their nails suddenly turn black and red, extending out like small knives, and then deeply pierced into the eight-armed Demon's body!

"Puchi~"

There was no resistance whatsoever.

The five sharp fingers entered as easily as if piercing tofu!

When the nails were fully embedded in the eight-armed Demon's body, large amounts of blood gushed out as if a floodgate had opened, and then were completely swallowed and absorbed by the Bloodcloth Old Ancestor!

To save spiritual energy, the Bloodcloth Old Ancestor had made many modifications to his own Cultivation method, making it more suited to the rules of this World.

Originally, when the Bloodcloth Old Ancestor was in the Great Thousand World, if he wanted to absorb blood for Cultivation, he would generally rely on Array Formations constructed with spiritual energy.

But now, he relied on his subtly modified physical body, like his current nails, using his nails to directly absorb blood into his body.

This effect was not much different from an Array Formation constructed with spiritual energy.

In just a few breaths, the eight-armed Demon completely turned into a shriveled corpse amidst the massive loss of blood!

And the Bloodcloth Old Ancestor, having absorbed the essence blood of the eight-armed Demon, couldn't help but close his eyes comfortably and let out a moan: "Truly pure blood. Absorbing blood with the physical body is much more comfortable than using spiritual Array Formations."

After speaking, the Bloodcloth Old Ancestor's gaze, so blood-red it almost overflowed his pupils, directly locked onto the fish-headed Demon and the skeleton Demon.

...

A moment later.

On the ground, there was now a shriveled fish-headed Demon and a pile of broken bones.

The Bloodcloth Old Ancestor wiped his mouth.

The bright red bloodstain, and the retracted fangs in his mouth, proved that he seemed to have undergone some kind of transformation just now!

"I like this feeling of straightforward power. Although I am still far from recovering to my initial Realm, I feel as if I have seen another path leading to the Peak!" The Bloodcloth Old Ancestor's expression was full of excitement, mixed with a hidden hint of madness.

Under the accumulation of such mixed blood, his personality seemed to have been affected!

His dark red pupils shifted, and the Bloodcloth Old Ancestor's gaze focused directly on Su Liang: "Su Liang, this Venerable One originally thought you were just an ordinary person who could be continuously put to good use."

"I didn't expect you to have so many complex relationships behind you."

"You know, this Venerable One dislikes trouble the most, and dislikes uncertain things even more."

"It seems I can only kill you, lest you bring about something uncertain and ruin my great plan."

The Bloodcloth Old Ancestor's eyebrows had grown much thicker at some point, and they carried a beast-like aggression!

While speaking like this, the Bloodcloth Old Ancestor even licked the corner of his mouth like a beast, and the moment his fangs were revealed, it was like a beast feeding!

"Old Ancestor! I have always been by your side and will not ruin anything for you! I can still help you with many things!"

Seeing the other party approaching step by step, Su Liang was drenched in sweat!

As for those three fellows who were more likely to mess things up than succeed, he was itching with hatred towards them at this moment.

If it weren't for those three fellows, he absolutely wouldn't be facing this kind of danger now!

You say you have no strength, so why come to save someone? This is harming people!

Su Liang's pleading words did not cause the Bloodcloth Old Ancestor to stop in the slightest.

Only the locked-on bloodthirsty killing intent became increasingly strong!

"Old Ancestor! Do you still want to drink the blood of those Demons from just now? I, I can help you find them one by one!" Su Liang said urgently and certainly, his face pale, as he thought of something.

The information brought by this sentence did make the Bloodcloth Old Ancestor stop.

His aura gradually subsided, calming and solidifying. The Bloodcloth Old Ancestor's original aura gradually returned, and on his somewhat unhealthy pale face, he wore a hint of 'kindness': "That's not bad, Su Liang. I like this kind of behavior where you betray your own people for your own sake."

"In this regard, I feel as if I see my younger self."

"Hahahaha..."

As the Bloodcloth Old Ancestor laughed heartily, Su Liang only offered an awkward smile in return.

"Let's go, continue searching for the potion ingredients. While searching for ingredients, don't forget to help me find blood food of the quality just now." Stepping over the corpses of the three Demons, the Bloodcloth Old Ancestor walked along the mountain path towards the front.

Clearly, this time he let Su Liang go.

Su Liang behind him lowered his head to glance at the three Demon corpses on the ground, took a deep breath to suppress the fear in his heart, and quickly followed.

After this time, the thought of harming the Bloodcloth Old Ancestor in his heart was completely extinguished.

In his perception, this fellow's strength was definitely not at the level of a widely recognized Holy Magic Mentor!

From him single-handedly dealing with two Evil Dragons in a short time before, to casually killing three Demons now, it was evident that this fellow's power was at least at the Peak of the Holy Magic Mentor Realm!

Perhaps even higher!

Thinking back, Su Liang now felt nothing but regret!

Back then, when that General from Helan City brought up the matter of rescuing the Princess, that was the origin of all evil!

He really shouldn't have gone to join the excitement in the Guardian Squad, and even less should he have thought of befriending this old fellow!

As of now, he would have no freedom for the next few years, or even more than ten years!

Who on earth caused this damned fellow to appear?!
