Chapter 844: Chapter 0844: The Sect Leader’s Trust in the Sect Leader’s Wife

Mother Zhu, though concerned about her daughter’s marriage, is also a person with a clear understanding of affairs.

Now, not to mention Luo Yang, even mother and daughter are still in quite a dangerous situation.

Previously, Mother Zhu kept making difficult demands on Luo Yang, solely to prevent him from obtaining the Blood Devil Child.

At this moment, after listening to Luo Yang’s logical explanation, Mother Zhu fell into deep thought.

It’s still an unknown whether her husband has genuinely gone missing or is no longer alive; it requires thorough investigation.

Besides finding out the truth about her husband’s situation, the most crucial matter is to resolve the feud with the Blood Devil Sect; everything else is secondary.

Luo Yang further added, "Mother, Shanshan, registration is also a big deal. If Shanshan’s father meets me and agrees, then it’s not too late for Shanshan and me to register our marriage."

Glancing at Mother Zhu again, he saw her deep in thought, knowing that he had struck a chord with her.

"Mother, Shanshan, we need to be united. We should first find out the whereabouts of Shanshan’s father and set aside other matters for now. Don’t you agree?"

While speaking, he quickly glanced at Zhu Zishan and saw her nodding in agreement.

Finally, Mother Zhu spoke: "Niu Zai, both Shanshan and I choose to trust you. Please don’t let us down."

These words felt like a refreshing rain falling upon Luo Yang.

Luo Yang said, "Mother, Shanshan, I won’t disappoint you."

With that, he had the urge to immediately ask Mother Zhu and her daughter for the Blood Devil Child.

However, for the time being, an appropriate opportunity to inquire about the whereabouts of the Blood Devil Child had not yet presented itself.

"Once I’ve mastered Ferocious Power, I’ll help you deal with Wuweizi and the others," Luo Yang said, tightening his embrace around Zhu Zishan’s slender waist.

"Then you should learn it quickly," Zhu Zishan responded in a soft voice.

Immediately after, Luo Yang shifted the conversation back to the Blood Devil Child.

"So when shall we get the Blood Devil Child?" Luo Yang asked, feigning casualness.

But inside, he was excited, and his voice naturally brimmed with anticipation.

"Mother."

Zhu Zishan looked towards her mother, seeking her guidance.

At that moment, Mother Zhu was deep in thought. She raised her head and said, "To obtain the Blood Devil Child is not an easy task."

From her tone, it seemed that she was gearing up to make things difficult again.

"Nothing in the world is difficult for one who sets his mind to it," Luo Yang quickly declared his resolve.

Then, he gently patted Zhu Zishan’s rear, signaling her to help persuade her mother.

Zhu Zishan looked up and stared at Luo Yang’s resolute face, saying, "Niu Zai, what my mother says is true. The place where the Blood Devil Child is hidden is not somewhere just anyone can go."

If mother and daughter both said so, it must be quite a challenge.

The problem was, without the Blood Devil Child, he couldn’t cultivate Ferocious Power.

Luo Yang was indeed quite interested in Ferocious Power, which is one reason.

Secondly, if he could master Ferocious Power, then when facing the top experts of the Blood Devil Sect, using Ferocious Power in tandem with Shadowless Kick and Shadow Fist, he would be unstoppable.

Not to mention that in the future, he would have to contend with even more formidable entities like Jiuyang Hall; without a few tricks up his sleeve, he could be killed at any moment.

Remembering the scene where Little Huizi handled four Blood Generals with one move that night, Luo Yang couldn’t keep calm.

"Mother, Shanshan, no matter how difficult a task, as long as we persevere, we should not fear failing," Luo Yang was not sure how else to persuade them, so he resorted to speaking of general principles.

"Niu Zai..."

Mother Zhu was indeed cautious, scanning the surroundings first; when she saw that there was no one around, she continued speaking.

"Alone, you might not have the capability to reach the place where the Blood Devil Child is hidden."

"Where is the Blood Devil Child hidden?"

Upon asking, both Mother Zhu and her daughter grew alert, checking their surroundings to ensure no one was nearby.

Then Zhu Zishan first sought her mother’s approval with a glance, and upon receiving a nod, she said softly, "Niu Zai, the Blood Devil Child is hidden beneath Frozen Lake."

At that time, Zhu Zishan was in a pavilion on Frozen Lake. Luo Yang said, "Had you told me earlier, I would have just dived down to find it and taken it away!"

But Frozen Lake was within the stronghold of the Blood Devil Sect, and it was no easy feat to get in there; getting in was difficult, but getting out was even harder.

"It’s not as simple as you think," Zhu Zishan said coyly.

She doesn’t usually speak in such a coquettish way, but when she’s with Luo Yang, her tone turns teasing.

"Is the water of the Frozen Lake very deep?" Luo Yang asked.

"Several meters deep, I guess," Zhu Zishan speculated.

Although not living by the sea, Luo Yang was also adept at swimming.

To him, diving into water several meters deep posed no problem at all.

"Piece of cake! We’ll sneak into the resort tonight, I’ll go down and bring Blood Devil up," Luo Yang said confidently.

But Zhu Zishan and her mother exchanged smiles, clearly not agreeing with Luo Yang’s statement.

"I’m not kidding. In the village, there aren’t many with better swimming skills than me," Luo Yang stated proudly.

"There’s no need to go underwater," Zhu Zishan giggled.

Hearing this, Luo Yang was puzzled.

How would you retrieve something from under the Frozen Lake without getting into the water?

Could there be some sort of lift?

"Operated by a remote control?" Luo Yang asked curiously.

Zhu Zishan and her mother paused for a moment, then understood what Luo Yang meant.

"You don’t understand the Blood Devil Sect; it’s not your fault. The Blood Devil Sect has built an altar at the bottom of the Frozen Lake. There’s a way to get in," Mother Zhu explained.

"That’s even better," Luo Yang exclaimed happily.

"There’s only one way in and out, and that’s where the difficulty lies," Mother Zhu said.

From her tone, it seemed as though she was implying that there were formidable guards present.

Luo Yang asked, "Is it difficult to get in?"

Nodding, Mother Zhu said, "My husband has told me that on the way to the altar, there are three checkpoints: the first is guarded by ordinary disciples; the second by the Faceless Men; and for the third checkpoint, not even my husband knows what’s there."

You should know that Zhu Zishan’s father is the Sect Leader of the Blood Devil Sect.

How could the Sect Leader not know what’s in the altar?

Luo Yang cracked a smile and said, "He hasn’t told you, has he?"

Mother Zhu scoffed, "My husband trusts me more than you think."

Seeing that Mother Zhu was taking the matter seriously, Luo Yang chuckled.

"Do you think being the Sect Leader means knowing everything about the Blood Devil Sect? There are matters from previous generations that even my husband doesn’t know. The guardians of the third checkpoint have been there since long ago. The Sect Leader can pass through without issue, but anyone else who tries to enter the altar will be attacked."

After Mother Zhu explained, Luo Yang nodded, indicating that he understood.

The three checkpoints were indeed a test of one’s courage and wit on how to enter and exit.

If you get trapped inside, you’ll be like a turtle in a jar.

Luo Yang wasn’t afraid of ordinary guards.

As for the Faceless Men, he knew nothing about them.

"Are the Faceless Men stronger than Binghuo yecha?" Luo Yang asked.

"Niu Zai, only the stronger ones are qualified to guard the altar. The Blood Devil Sect values the altar very much. It’s a Holy Land, as well as forbidden territory, not just anyone can go there. It’s said that one can commune with deities at the altar," Zhu Zishan recounted knowledgeably.

Upon hearing this, Luo Yang actually wanted to say, "Has your dad communed with deities, and that’s why he went to a mysterious place?"

But thinking that such a question would be too hurtful for Zhu Zishan, he swallowed the words back.

"Who can command the Faceless Men?" Luo Yang asked, gently caressing Zhu Zishan’s waist.

"No one. Only the two Elders at the first checkpoint can order them around," Mother Zhu answered.

"So, does that mean if Elder Chang Zhenzi and Wuweizi wish to enter the altar, they too would be attacked?" Luo Yang pressed on.

Seeing Mother Zhu nod her head...

But then, Mother Zhu added, "However, there is one exception."

Her hesitant demeanor seemed to suggest she was reluctant to speak.
