Chapter 958: Chapter 0958: He Demands His Wife to Do So

The person on the other end of the phone should have said something like "I will compensate you for your losses," but instead, he was even more assertive.

After a chillingly sinister laugh, the man said, "Of course it won’t just be let go like this! The taste of blood is thrilling; I want to drink your blood!"

Wuweizi flinched, as if someone had already sunk their teeth into his veins, draining his blood. His face turned pale.

"Our Blood Devil Sect has no grievances with your Skull Fortress, yet you dare to come and kill! Even if it means fighting to the death, we’ll settle this with you!" Wuweizi shouted in both fear and fury, his voice trembling.

After all, he knew that the Eight Immortals Hall and Jiuyang Hall were enemies of Skull Fortress; it was why he dared to say such a thing.

In other words, Wuweizi was planning to ally himself with the Eight Immortals Hall or Jiuyang Hall.

"Isn’t living well enough? Aren’t you aiming to cultivate Ferocious Power’s Third Level? If you want to fulfill your wish, lower your stance. If you’re willing to continue talking, wait for my call. If not, you can refuse now. But starting today, your Blood Devil Sect members will die one by one!"

Faced with such a blatant threat, Wuweizi dared not retort.

Firstly, he did indeed desire to cultivate the higher levels of Ferocious Power.

Secondly, the Skull Fortress’s influence was terrifying—it wasn’t the man bluffing but a reality he could act on.

"I’ll take that as your agreement then. Wait for my call!"

With that, the other party hung up.

Wuweizi still held the phone, standing there motionless like a wooden statue.

Things had escalated to this point; the situation was now incredibly complex.

Luo Yang guessed that Skull Fortress’s sudden appearance at this time might also be related to Blood Devil.

"Get him out so we can join forces and take him down!" suggested Master Hua.

But this was something Wuweizi dared not initiate.

Skull Fortress might find it impossible to seek revenge against Eight Immortals Hall, but turning their wrath on the Blood Devil Sect was a trivial matter.

No one had any ideas on what to do next.

A death had occurred, and typically, the police should have been notified.

Yet, Wuweizi opted to cover it up first, especially with the national holiday peak tourist season approaching.

If the police were involved at this time, it would terrify the visitors.

For the sake of the Blood Devil Sect’s interests, Wuweizi instructed the resort staff to keep quiet.

At this moment, Gu Xue was still nowhere to be seen, making Luo Yang anxious.

Earlier, the scene had been chaotic. Neither Hua XiYi nor Master Hua had noticed the changes in the surrounding personnel.

They later moved to another courtyard to discuss how to deal with Skull Fortress. Things quieted down, but Gu Xue’s absence might arouse suspicion.

As expected, Hua XiYi scanned the room and was momentarily stunned.

"Haha, where’s that wife of yours gone?"

Luo Yang didn’t know how to reply.

He had no idea what Gu Xue was doing, and making things up would only make it easier for them to catch on.

It should be noted that the three Gu sisters were people of the Ten Thousand Souls Sect.

Where the elder sister went, Luo Yang figured the other two sisters ought to know.

"I..."

"Just say it. No need for nonsense; time is precious now."

As Gu Yun began to speak a single word, Luo Yang quickly interrupted her.

It was because he sensed that she was about to say "my sister," and if she did, it would create a huge problem.

Gu Yun naturally understood Luo Yang’s intention, so she said, "I know. She gets dizzy at the sight of blood, was frightened earlier, and said she wanted to go for a walk outside."

This response wasn’t brilliant, but it was passable for the situation.

However, Hua XiYi had always been suspicious of the three Gu sisters and said, "Heh! She’d be even more in danger outside. Call her and ask her to come back here."

If no call was made, Hua XiYi’s suspicion would deepen.

The problem was, Luo Yang had no idea what Gu Xue was up to.

At such a critical time, her sudden disappearance annoyed Luo Yang greatly.

He took out his phone and called Gu Xue.

Fortunately, the call connected.

Luo Yang began, "Even if you’re afraid of blood, you shouldn’t be outside. We’re very worried about your safety. Come back quickly."

Saying this was also meant to remind Gu Xue.

As for where she had gone, Luo Yang planned to get to the bottom of it later.

Anyone would think Gu Xue was attending to something important.

Gu Xue replied, "Eh, I still feel dizzy. I’d like to stay outside a bit longer. Is that okay?"

It wasn’t that Luo Yang disagreed—it was Hua XiYi and Master Hua who had objections.

"Come back here and find a place to rest for a moment. It’s too dangerous to be outside," Luo Yang demanded.

"Eh, your situation here is far too frightening! I was nearly scared to death! If I’d known, I wouldn’t have come with you! Where are you now? Still at that place? Eh, if you’re still in that courtyard, I’m not coming!"

Hearing Gu Xue’s tone, it seemed she was attending to something important and didn’t want to return immediately.

But if she didn’t show up, Hua XiYi would likely target the three Gu sisters for closer scrutiny.

If their true identities were uncovered, Luo Yang would be in a difficult position.

To intervene directly, he lacked the ability—he might sacrifice his own life without resolving much.

To simply not intervene—it wasn’t like they hadn’t tied the knot yet, and they were essentially husband and wife.

Who could bear to watch his three beautiful wives get killed without feeling heartache?

Especially for someone as sentimental as Luo Yang, the pain would be even greater.

"We’re no longer there. You should come back. It’s dangerous outside," Luo Yang urged.

He proceeded to tell her their specific location.

Given the terrifying scene from earlier, Mo Shuo—even someone as bold as Master Hua—would have felt somewhat disturbed upon witnessing it.

So it was understandable for Gu Xue to step outside for some fresh air.

After finishing the call, the group resumed their discussion on how to deal with Skull Fortress.

"Master Hua, Miss Hua, I implore you to uphold justice and help us seek redress," Wuweizi said, clasping his fists in a plea.

This sort of Jianghu vendetta was best resolved within Jianghu.

The Blood Devil Sect lacked the means to challenge Skull Fortress and could only rely on Eight Immortals Hall and Jiuyang Hall to step in.

"Haha, give me Blood Devil, and everything will be fine!"

"Miss Hua, we’ll find him eventually..."

"Hey! Blood Devil belongs to me!"

Master Hua couldn’t resist reminding Wuweizi not to leave him out.

Both of them wanted Blood Devil, leaving Wuweizi speechless.

In fact, almost everyone present had their sights set on Blood Devil.

"Do we know how many people Skull Fortress sent?"

Breaking the silence, Luo Yang suddenly raised the question.

Before arriving in Tianjiang City, Luo Yang had thought he’d only need to deal with the Blood Devil Sect.

Unexpectedly, people from both Eight Immortals Hall and Jiuyang Hall showed up.

And now, Skull Fortress had joined the party.

Luo Yang believed it might be better to switch to another time to seek out Blood Devil. Otherwise, even if they found him, obtaining him would not be easy.

No one could answer Luo Yang’s question.

Skull Fortress lurked in the shadows while Luo Yang and the others remained out in the open—the danger of hidden strikes was all too real.

Should they charge into the altar recklessly, no one could guarantee survival.

"Haha, are we just going to sit around?" Hua XiYi sneered.

In truth, she had no clear plan either.

"Sister Hua, why don’t we try this approach..."

Luo Yang began to speak as he walked over.

He knew Hua XiYi had been suspicious of the three Gu sisters. He needed to find a topic to divert her attention.

"Haha, what’s the plan?"

Standing before Hua XiYi, Luo Yang couldn’t resist casting a glance at her chest, where two quiet snowy-white rabbits rested.

"Let’s lure the turtle into the jar..."

"Haha! Interesting! That’s my boy! Haha!"

As Hua XiYi laughed, the snowy-white rabbits bounced lively along with her.

"If you’ve got something to say, say it loud! Don’t skulk around!" complained Master Hua indignantly.

After all, he considered himself an honored guest, yet Luo Yang seemed to disregard him entirely.

This left Master Hua feeling overlooked and underestimated.
