Chapter 244: Blood Pond Training
Alan and Sonia made too much noise.
The top leaders of the Demons family received the news and rushed over.
Four figures walked out of the teleportation array one after another.
The old man in the lead was tall and thin.
He was skin and bones, with sunken eye sockets, like a living skeleton!
When Simone saw the skinny old man, he bowed quickly with a trembling voice.
"Clan leader!"
Helen also bowed to the old man and whispered to Alan and Sonia:
"Our clan leader is here!"
"With him are the first, second, and third ranked elders!"
"The three elders are all at the late fifth stage."
"The clan leader's cultivation level is... early sixth stage!"
The patriarch of the Demons family has been out of touch with worldly affairs for many years.
In the family, most of the younger generations have never seen him!
It is said that the old man is over 100 years old.
Knowing that his life was coming to an end, he lived in seclusion in a secret place.
The place where the patriarch lives in seclusion is very different from the secret realm of the blood pool!
The flow of time there is slower than in the outside world.
One year of living in the secret realm is like ten years passing in the outside world!
For the patriarch himself, it did not actually extend his life.
But for the family, the old patriarch is equivalent to extending his life tenfold!
Especially when the family encounters a crisis or a powerful enemy invades, asking the old patriarch to come out and take charge is like a stabilizing force!
It can be said that the old patriarch lived the rest of his life entirely for the benefit of the family.
Chief Demons, leaning on a cane, had a blank expression on his face.
Simeone stuttered and trembled as he recounted the whole story of the farce.
Helen obtained the consent of her elders and made appropriate supplements.
After listening to this, the old patriarch stretched out his skinny hand and waved to Alan.
"Come here, kid, I want to tell you something."
Hearing the old man's gentle tone, Alan stepped forward, bowed and greeted him with full courtesy.
At the same time, secretly add the "soft bone and flesh armor" to prevent accidents!
"Child, I heard that you are a rising star in the Silver Moon Monastery?"
"Then, I guess you are Brother Tiger's new student."
" How's your health , old cat ?"
Alan was stunned for a moment, and quickly explained: "The old man, Master Tiger, is my teacher Shiva's teacher, the former dean!"
"I don't have the blessing to listen to the old dean's teachings!"
"Ah?" The old man was stunned. "Old Cat...could he have passed away?"
"Our old dean went to Origin City many years ago!"
"Wow... Old Cat, you are more promising than me after all!"
The old patriarch sighed, his expression extremely complicated.
"Young man, I already know what happened."
"It's not your fault and that little girl's fault."
"It is only natural to repay kindness and to repay hatred."
"Old Four is a man with small abilities but big ambitions."
"You have been tyrannical and domineering over the years, deceiving your superiors and subordinates. This is outrageous!"
"People in the family have many complaints against him, and they have already brought the case to me."
"Considering that he is a relative of mine, I have always tolerated him and warned him many times to restrain himself, but unfortunately he did not listen!"
"The fourth son was not disciplined himself, and gave birth to a son who is also a prodigal son!"
"He committed crimes outside and robbed decent women. How despicable!"
"This father and son have already planted the seeds of their own fatal disaster."
"You deserve this bad retribution today, you don't deserve any sympathy!"
"This is my attitude, who agrees and who disagrees?"
The old patriarch looked around at the younger generations with a stern gaze.
The three elders agreed in unison.
The rest of the younger generations didn't even dare to say a word!
Alan and Sonia looked at each other, both a little surprised.
How could the old patriarch of the Demon Family be so easy to talk to?
If he is able to distinguish right from wrong, is upright, and stands for what is right rather than for his relatives, then what kind of "demon warlock" is he? !
Something is fishy going on, I'm afraid there is some conspiracy!
After a slight hesitation, Sonia stepped forward and said, "Old sir, I am sorry for being so rude to come to your door today. Please forgive me."
"Little girl, you were indeed rash. Don't be so impulsive in the future." Chief Demons gently criticized Sonia, "If it weren't for my good temper, you would be in danger of losing your life!"
"Forget it, you can't be blamed for this. After all, the hatred of stealing your mother is irreconcilable."
"The culprit has been executed. You should stop holding a grudge against our Demons family. How about we shake hands and make peace?"
"I will obey your orders, old master. I dare not disobey you."
Sonia looked respectful.
The old patriarch nodded with satisfaction and turned to look at Allen.
"The old gentleman is a friend of our old dean, so of course I have to obey your orders."
"That's good. Come to my house and have a cup of tea and chat with me."
"Simone, you and Helente should also come to entertain the guests."
"Thank you for your appreciation, Patriarch!"
Simeone was shaking with excitement.
He was unsuccessful for most of his life and had to be very cautious and careful.
I never dared to dream that one day I would receive such high-level treatment and become the guest of honor of the clan leader!
Thanks to my precious daughter, I made a good friend and helped my dad to be proud!
…
The clan leader's banquet is scheduled for the evening.
Before going to the banquet, Alan and Sonia accompanied Helen home.
When Mrs. Anna woke up, she saw her biological daughter and stepdaughter standing side by side in front of her bed, like a pair of sisters.
My eyes suddenly filled with tears!
He stretched out his arms and held both of his precious daughters in his arms.
She lived a life of wandering and humiliation, but in her later years, she finally enjoyed the happiness of family life.
Sonia hugged her mother whom she had not seen for many years and told her about her experiences over the years.
When Anna learned that her ex-husband died of alcoholism, she sighed and tears welled up in her eyes.
Sonia quickly changed the subject and asked her mother if she wanted to go with her.
When Simone heard this, he became uneasy and quickly winked at Helen.
Helen was hesitant to speak, as she was too embarrassed to stop her stepmother from leaving Winter Island with her biological daughter.
Simone had no choice but to swallow his pride and ask his wife not to abandon him.
Anna couldn't help but soften her heart when she saw her husband's pitiful appearance.
The daughter has grown up and can take care of herself without her mother's presence, but her husband and unborn child cannot be separated from her care.
Anna hesitated for a long time, held Sonia's hand with tears in her eyes, and shook her head gently.
Sonia was sad but not surprised by the choice her mother made.
As the old saying goes, "A distant relative is not as good as a close neighbor."
After more than ten years of separation, even if she was her own daughter, how could she be as close to her as her second husband who saved her from the fire, lived with her day and night, and gave birth to the fruit of their love together?
Since her mother couldn't bear to leave her husband and adopted daughter and decided to stay in the North, and she was pregnant with a baby, it would be difficult for Sonia to force her way in and disrupt this harmonious family.
My mother's family, with the old patriarch taking care of them, will probably no longer be oppressed or excluded by the clan members.
In this way, Sonia felt relieved and no longer forced her mother to live with her.
…
That night, Chief Demons held a banquet to entertain Alan and Sonia.
During the banquet, the old patriarch solemnly introduced his eldest grandson, Burke Demons.
Brother Burke is a middle-aged man with an average appearance.
He is tall and thin, has a moustache and is taciturn.
Burke is the best of the third generation of the Demons family. He is in the early fifth stage of cultivation and is only half a step away from being promoted to the late stage.
Burke is indeed very good and can be considered a genius, but the embarrassing thing is that his age is just at the limit.
In two weeks, Burke will be forty years old!
The City of Origin has strict age standards.
Before the age of forty, you must be promoted to the late fifth level, otherwise you will not be eligible to participate in this trial!
If you miss this session, I'm afraid you will have no hope in this life!
According to Burke's own estimation, if he is given another two months, he can definitely be promoted to the late fifth level.
Unfortunately, time waits for no one!
Before he reached the age limit, even if he practiced day and night, it would be too late.
If the gap is too big, you can only blame yourself for being incompetent, but it doesn’t matter.
The problem is, Burke is just a little bit short!
Therefore, if you miss the Origin City Trial, you will regret it for the rest of your life.
At this time, if there is an anti-aging drug, his fate will change completely!
Having said that, Alan understood.
No wonder the old patriarch was so polite to him, not caring about killing Kambion and Solang and his son, and treating him warmly.
There is no such thing as a free lunch. You really have to ask for something.
"Brother Allen, I heard that you are the most outstanding potion master of the younger generation of Silver Moon Monastery."
Burke came over politely to toast.
"If you can sell me an anti-aging drug, the price is negotiable!"
Alan clinked his glass with his and drank it all.
"Brother Burke, it's so vulgar to talk about money between friends!"
"I have a first-level anti-aging agent on hand, and I can give you one for free."
"But I also have two small things that I would like to ask you for help with."
"Brother Alan, just tell me what you have to say. I will do my best!"
Burke's face flushed with excitement, and he patted his thin chest loudly.
"Brother Burke, to be honest, Helen was my senior. She took good care of me when I first entered the school."
"My senior sister is not in a good situation in the family. She has suffered a lot of bullying and was even deprived of the qualification to enter the Blood Pond Secret Realm for training by the Kambion father and son. I think this is unfair."
"I hope that Brother Burke can speak a fair word for my senior sister in front of the elders and give her a chance to participate in the trial."
"No problem!" Burke said seriously, "From today on, Helen is my biological sister! She can enter the Blood Pond Secret Realm to practice at any time. If anyone dares to bully my sister, I will kill him!!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the banquet hall looked at him sideways.
Burke, as the third-generation leader of the Demons family and the successor chosen by the old patriarch, is qualified to say this.
He said he would protect Helen, and from now on Helen would be a real rich girl, who would dare to mess with her? !
Alan nodded in satisfaction and continued.
"In addition, Sonia and I plan to use the Blood Pond Secret Realm of the Demons Family to practice with Senior Sister and help her advance to the late fourth stage as soon as possible and meet the standards for participating in the trial."
"Well... brother, wait a moment!"
Burke does not have the authority to bring outsiders into the secret realm of the blood pool. This matter must be decided by the old patriarch.
He trotted all the way to the old patriarch and whispered Alan's request.
The old patriarch leaned on his walking stick, stroked his beard, and after pondering for a moment, he smiled and nodded.
Burke let out a long breath and excitedly punched Alan.
Alan smiled slightly and took out two first-level anti-aging agents from his storage bag.
One was for Burke, and the other was to honor the old patriarch.
"Not bad, not bad, good boy, very sensible!"
The old patriarch accepted his gift with a big smile on his face.
"Old man, you can't take my things for free. I have three super magic awakening potions here. Pick one for yourself."
Two of them, "Shaping Super Magic" and "Expanding Super Magic", were already in Allen's possession.
The natural choice is the last one, "Silent Super Magic".
When casting a spell, spend an additional 2 mana points to avoid the spell.
Combined with Spanna's sapphire dagger, you can cast spells silently in the "Silent Barrier", which has great tactical value!
Chief Demons made an exception and allowed two outsiders to enter the Blood Pond Secret Realm to practice for a year.
He also generously gave Alan, Helen and Sonia one thousand magic stones each as training resources.
Brother Burke is an impatient man. After receiving the anti-aging agent provided by Allen, he couldn't wait for even a minute and ran back to the secret realm to meditate.
…
Two days later, Herent returned to the Blood Pool Secret Realm with Alan and Sonia.
She was in a secret place, and the small house she originally lived in was too shabby.
The old patriarch specially approved and gave her a big house with a group of maids to serve her.
Not only that, the patriarch was also thoughtful enough to invite Simone and Anna into the secret realm to facilitate family reunion.
Alan was very satisfied with the old patriarch's arrangement, but there was no need to be flattered.
As the new generation leader of the Silver Moon Monastery and the founder of the Panthers family, his worth is worthy of this generous treatment!
Among the three, Sonia was under the most pressure.
The year in the secret realm was not a leisurely one for her.
During this period, you must be promoted to the late fourth stage!
Alan and Sonia saw what was on her mind.
Just tell Helen about this shortcut of “group meditation”.
In the first few days, Alan presided over the meetings and practiced with Helen and Sonia.
However, I soon discovered that I was a little redundant among the two sisters...
The ancestral spirits of Helen and Sonia happened to be active in the same era.
The major events experienced by the two, such as the Nth "blood battle" between the Abyss and Hell, also intersect in time and space.
The shared stage laid the premise for the two to work closely together.
Sonia's lust demon ancestor has grown into a formal hell pilot.
Drive the "Hell Angel" and gallop across the bloody battlefield.
On the other hand, the succubus ancestor spirit fused with Herent is in charge of intelligence work in the Abyss Legion.
We are actively developing downlines, trying to infiltrate the devil's camp and obtain some valuable intelligence.
The two women hit it off immediately!
Sonia provides Helen with intelligence on the devil's side.
Helen also provided Sonia with information that interested her.
The two are in opposing camps. They appear to be sworn enemies on the surface, but in private they are like sisters and secretly exchange benefits for each other.
With the intelligence provided by Sonia, Helen shines in the Abyss Intelligence Department and is promoted step by step!
With the clues provided by Helen, Sonia was always able to anticipate the enemy's moves, repeatedly made military achievements, and became an ace pilot.
She also asked Helen for help to assassinate her direct superior who was making things difficult for her, and replaced him with a higher position!
In this situation, Allen can't seem to do anything except yell 666 to the two sisters...
Anyway, Helent and Sonia have not encountered any powerful enemies yet, so Alan will not waste his energy on them.
Exit the gathering and enter your own meditation world.
He continued to serve as a "traitor" and "guide" for the Demon Lord Anzus in his identity as an ogre wizard.
Relying on the power of the devil, he continued to expand his territory in the underworld and secretly accumulated strength.
