Chapter 971 - 880: Being Undercover is Tough
Shock Demon Lake Shore.
Lu Fei’s face had gone completely white, and his entire body was trembling.
Damn, what on earth had happened…
The Supreme Blood Crystal prepared for the Blood Ancestor had turned into a lump…
It was over, all over!
This time, his own future was definitely bleak, even the Three-winged Fierce Deer Clan would be doomed…
“It really wasn’t me… You have to believe me!”
“I swear, I didn’t eat it, whoever ate it is a dog!”
He was on the verge of tears.
Yafei, witnessing this scene, couldn’t help but hesitate, and said,
“It probably really wasn’t him… After all, if it were him, he wouldn’t dare to make such a harsh oath!”
Ge Qianming also frowned slightly. Since the Lu family loathed dogs so deeply and he dared to make such a curse… it should be okay.
But, he still shook his head and said,
“What does it matter if we believe you?”
“Offending Lord Blood Ancestor… that is your real disaster!”
One fury from the Blood Ancestor, and if unwilling to return to the Grey Mist Sea, that would be an enormous loss, affecting the grand plans of the Grey Mist Sea.
Such consequences were unbearable for anyone.
Upon hearing this, Lu Fei immediately knelt down and pleaded with the Blood Ancestor,
“Lord Blood Ancestor, I’m sorry… I really don’t know how this happened, the Blood Crystal truly wasn’t eaten by me!”
He was sobbing uncontrollably.
Yet, the Blood Ancestor’s face remained filled with fury, and said,
“Why should I believe you?”
Ge Qianming pondered, and all of a sudden said,
“Lord Blood Ancestor, I might have a solution.”
“What if we let Lu Fei eat this thing?”
“If it really was him who ate the Blood Crystal and then excreted this… he definitely wouldn’t want to eat it!”
“After all, who would want to eat their own… right?”
His eyes shone, feeling this was a good idea.
It could not only save Lu Fei’s life but also pacify the Blood Ancestor.
Upon hearing this, Lu Fei’s eyes widened.
What kind of absurd logic was this from Ge Qianming… Lu Fei didn’t want to eat his own, would he want to eat someone else’s?
It was a huge trap.
And the Blood Ancestor was momentarily taken aback upon hearing this.
There was such a method??
Ge Qianming… truly a brilliant mind!
However, he then thought that he needed to continue his undercover work and couldn’t afford to fall out with these people.
Give these people a way out!
He immediately nodded and said,
“That makes sense, let’s do that!”
Immediately, Yafei handed over the stone box to Lu Fei.
Lu Fei looked at that thing… and began to tremble!
Could it really… come to this?
Please no…
“For your own innocence, for the future of the Three-winged Fierce Deer Clan, and to make Lord Blood Ancestor happy!”
Ge Qianming, very seriously, said,
“Brother, eat it!”
Lu Fei glanced at the Blood Ancestor, feeling utterly aggrieved at that moment.
Then…
He gritted his teeth…
…
Yafei and the others couldn’t help but turn their heads away, unwilling to watch this disgusting scene.
…
“Lord Blood Ancestor, it seems now that the Blood Crystal definitely wasn’t stolen by Lu Fei.”
“There must be… some other problem.”
Ge Qianming spoke up, saying,
“I assure you, once we enter the Grey Mist Sea, we will compensate you a hundredfold!”
The Blood Ancestor heard this and also nodded, saying,
“Alright, what do we need to do next?”
Ge Qianming’s lips curved into a slight smile, and he said,
“Not to hide it from Lord Blood Ancestor, the Ancestor of Instruments has also arrived, and he has already agreed to return to the Grey Mist Sea.”
“Now, we’re just waiting for the Demon Ancestor.”
The Blood Ancestor’s heart shivered slightly upon hearing this.
The Ancestor of Instruments had come…
No, if a fight broke out, he would have to be wary of him!
He pondered for a moment, and said,
“The Demon Ancestor? He probably won’t easily agree to return.”
“Although this person is a Demon Cultivator, he values loyalty,” he said. “That year, he brazenly stormed the Path of Dao Scenery and nearly died, saved by the entity at The End of Myriad Paths…”
On hearing this, Ge Qianming furrowed his brows.
He hadn’t expected there to be such a story behind the Demon Ancestor…
“If he chooses to stand against the Grey Mist Sea…”
Ge Qianming said gravely,
“Then there is no choice. We may need to trouble you and the Artifact Ancestor to take action and kill him!”
The Blood Ancestor said indifferently,
“The Artifact Ancestor can handle forging but is not so good at fighting…”
“Even with my help, it would probably be very difficult to kill the Demon Ancestor.”
At this level, the two of them together had a great chance of defeating the opponent.
But to kill?
Very difficult!
Ge Qianming smiled and said,
“The Blood Ancestor doesn’t need to worry. This time, the Grey Mist Sea is very well prepared… We have a backup plan!”
“If necessary… some beings from the Grey Mist Sea… can cross dimensions!”
He was quite calm!
They had come this time not just bringing three gifts.
They also had the True Bone of a strong being from the Grey Mist Sea!
Similarly, the True Bone could be used to open Dao Scenic Land and allow the being from there to descend.
Of course, this method should not be used unless absolutely necessary. After all, Biao Yixiong from the Grey Hou Clan had their plan turned on them and was killed… The powerful beings from there are wary of crossing over!
Upon hearing this, a flicker of light passed through the depths of the Blood Ancestor’s eyes.
So… there was a backup plan!
Plus one Artifact Ancestor…
Being an undercover agent here is tough!
The pressure is immense.
“Come, Blood Ancestor, I’ll take you to meet the Artifact Ancestor Meng Nan, and we’ll discuss how to strategize and prepare to take down the Demon Ancestor!”
He spoke at once.
Now that they were all in this together, they could speak openly!
…
Before long, they arrived at the great hall where Artifact Ancestor Meng Nan was.
…
Inside the great hall.
“Where have you been? Why do I feel… your aura seems stronger than before?”
Meng Nan looked at Big Yellow Dog with some suspicion.
The dog’s strength… seemed to have surged as if it had consumed some divine elixir!
Big Yellow Dog proudly said,
“Woof, I’ve always been this strong!”
Meng Nan looked disdainfully at Da Hei and asked,
“How did it go? Were you successful?”
“I really don’t want to fight with Blood Ancestor and Demon Ancestor.”
He still hoped Da Hei had managed to drive a wedge between Blood Ancestor and the others.
Da Hei bragged,
“How could I not be successful?”
“Just wait. That old Blood Ancestor will explode in fury and kill those three shrimps, and those three shrimps, to protect themselves, will definitely ask someone from the Grey Mist Sea to intervene…”
“Then be ready to act!”
He had it all planned out!
Meng Nan listened and felt somewhat relieved. As long as Blood Ancestor bore the brunt… sneaking in some attacks from the side shouldn’t be a problem!
At that moment, a voice came from outside.
“Junior Ge Qianming has come to visit Ancestor of Instruments!”
“Blood Ancestor is here too!”
Inside the great hall, upon hearing this, Artifact Ancestor Meng Nan’s heart skipped a beat, and he looked at Big Yellow Dog and said,
“You unreliable dog, bragging again. Has Blood Ancestor turned traitor?…”
Hearing this, Big Yellow Dog was also confused. Woof, what is this? Can Blood Ancestor even tolerate this?
Even if someone fed him dog shit, he swallowed his pride…
“Woof… Don’t blame me, Emperor. I overestimated Blood Ancestor’s bottom line…”
Fuming, it said, “That old Blood Ancestor is shameless, even dog shit he can tolerate?”
Meng Nan, upon hearing this, was momentarily stunned. Blood Crystal turned into dog shit?
This Dead Dog… what had it done?
No wonder its strength had surged. Could it be… it had secretly eaten the Blood Crystal?
And then left behind…
It seemed he understood something.
“What a disaster…”
Meng Nan felt as if he had completely fallen into a pit. Trusting a dog for bones was the biggest mistake of his life!
“Blood Ancestor has turned traitor, and being an undercover agent here… is tough!”
He also began to worry!
The pressure was immense!
