The Blood Of The Lord Chapter 18: Shadows in Meditation
Xu Lan had been waiting outside the main hall. When she saw Chen Wu emerge with a grim expression, she immediately knew that not much had been found inside."Our clan has been stripped, not just by the enemies, but also by those who claim to be neutral," said Chen Wu coldly.Xu Lan nodded. "When the world sees weakness, they won't hesitate to take advantage. But what did you find, Chen Wu?"Chen Wu showed her the scroll in his hand and told her about the energy crystal he had discovered. Xu Lan sighed in relief. "That's better than nothing. That scroll might help you."Chen Wu gazed toward the sky. "Mother, I will rebuild the Tianlong Clan. But I won't do it just to survive. I will make those who have ever belittled us kneel before us."Xu Lan looked at her son with a mixture of pride and worry. "Be careful with that path, Chen Wu. The world is full of ambition and resentment. Don't lose yourself along the way."Chen Wu nodded slightly, though his mind was already filled with plans fo
The Blood Of The Lord Chapter 19: Shadows Along the Journey
The next morning, Chen Wu stood atop a small hill overlooking the ruins of the Tianlong Clan. The morning sun began to shine on the area, but instead of bringing warmth, the atmosphere remained cold and somber. The scattered rubble of buildings stood as silent witnesses to the destruction of a once-revered clan.Chen Wu gripped the wooden sword in his hand, his mind drifting to the encounter from the previous night. The dark figure, its ominous words, and the light that had entered his body remained vividly etched in his memory."What has truly happened to me?" he muttered.He felt different. The energy within his body was wilder, harder to control, yet far more powerful than before. He knew this was the trial the dark figure had mentioned, and he had to learn to master this power before he could fully harness it.After ensuring there was nothing more to uncover in the ruins of the Tianlong Clan, Chen Wu decided to leave. He understood that the outside world would have already heard o
The Blood Of The Lord Chapter 20: Shadows That Follow the Journey
The Black Forest grew even denser as the night deepened. The sky, once dim, was now entirely dark, illuminated only by faint moonlight that occasionally slipped through gaps in the canopy. Chen Wu treaded cautiously, his wooden sword firmly in hand.The atmosphere in this forest was unusual. There was an eerie silence, as if all living creatures were holding their breath. Thick mist shrouded the narrow path, making visibility increasingly difficult. But Chen Wu pressed on.In the distance, faint sounds emerged. At first, they seemed like rustling leaves, but gradually they became clearer—the sound of footsteps. Chen Wu halted, channeling his energy to heighten his senses."Who dares approach?" he wondered.Srek, srek. The steps grew closer, yet no figure appeared—only the whisper of the night wind."I know you’re there," Chen Wu called out firmly, his tone laced with vigilance.From within the mist, a dark shadow slowly materialized. This time, it wasn’t human. A large creature resemb
The Blood Of The Lord Chapter 21: A Meeting on the Road
That morning, Chen Wu walked slowly along the narrow path connecting the Black Forest to the nearest town. Although the sun had begun to warm the earth, the cold air still bit sharply, mirroring his cautious state of mind. However, the calm of his journey was soon broken by a sound that shattered the silence.His keen ears picked up a woman’s scream, followed by the crude laughter of several men. The noise came from the bushes at the side of the road. Instantly alert, Chen Wu moved toward the sound, observing from behind the trees.In a small clearing hidden from the road, five rough-looking men surrounded a young woman. She wore simple clothes, now crumpled and dusty. Her long black hair was disheveled, and her eyes shone with fear. In her hands, she clutched a small bag tightly."Stay back!" the girl shouted, her voice trembling.“Don’t be scared, sweetie,” one of the bandits sneered mockingly. “We just want to share a little fun.”The girl stepped back, tears welling in her reddene
The Blood Of The Lord Chapter 22: The Beginning of a New Journey
The journey to the nearest town was still long, but their steps did not falter. Yue Ling walked alongside Chen Wu, occasionally glancing at him with curiosity that she could not hide."So," Yue Ling began the conversation, her voice soft but hesitant. "What brings you to a remote place like this? You don't look like an ordinary person."Chen Wu kept his gaze fixed ahead, his expression as cold as usual. "That's none of your business."Yue Ling flinched slightly at his response, but she did not give up. "I just want to know. You saved me earlier. I feel... you're different."Chen Wu didn’t respond, letting the silence hang between them. Yue Ling sighed softly, deciding not to press him further.In the middle of their journey, a distant rumble caught their attention. Yue Ling stopped, her eyes wide with surprise. "What’s that sound?"Chen Wu closed his eyes, feeling the vibration of energy in the air. "A fight.""A fight?" Yue Ling looked anxious. "Should we avoid it?"Chen Wu stared sh
The Blood Of The Lord Chapter 23: The Escort Offer
The sunlight began to fade, but the air remained hot and humid as they continued their journey. Chen Wu and Yue Ling were still walking along the trail leading to the nearest town. However, before they could take another step, a voice called out from behind."Sir, may we ask for one request?"Chen Wu paused for a moment, his cold and sharp eyes scanning the source of the voice. One of the traders he had saved earlier was running toward them, his face filled with hesitation but also hope.Yue Ling, noticing this, spoke up as Chen Wu remained silent. "What is it?" she asked in a softer tone than usual.The trader stopped a few steps ahead of them and bowed respectfully. "We would like you to ride in one of our carriages. We will escort you to the city. We cannot let someone as strong as you travel alone on these dangerous roads."Chen Wu stared at the trader with an unreadable expression. There was a brief silence before he spoke in a cold tone that made the trader flinch slightly."Jus
The Blood Of The Lord Chapter 24: The Unexpected Conflict
The bustling and noisy atmosphere of the market suddenly turned tense. Chen Wu was inspecting some items at a stall when a loud voice echoed, drawing the attention of everyone nearby. A man appeared, arrogantly riding a white horse, moving swiftly through the crowded market, disregarding the people who had to step aside to make way.The man didn't care at all about the people forced to avoid his path. He looked overly confident, wearing flashy clothing and carrying a large sword at his waist. However, as he continued with his fast-moving horse, an inevitable incident occurred.An elderly man, seemingly walking slowly among the crowd, nearly got trampled by the horse. His vision was blurry, and his steps were weak, making it difficult for him to dodge in time. Chen Wu, who was not far from the scene, immediately assessed the situation. Without hesitation, he swung his hand with a swift motion.Whoosh! A gust of wind shot out from the small swing.Suddenly, the horse came to a halt, its
The Blood Of The Lord Chapter 25: A Warning in the Midst of the Crowd
After the incident with Fang Tian, the market, which had briefly quieted down, came back to life. However, despite the return of the bustle, a sense of tension lingered in the air. Some merchants, who had previously been hesitant, now resumed their activities more cautiously, still uneasy about the potential danger that might arise after the earlier event. A few people looked at Chen Wu with curiosity, while others chose to avoid him, seemingly understanding that this young man was not someone to be taken lightly.As Chen Wu walked further, an elderly man who had been observing the event approached him. The man had a simple appearance, wearing faded black clothes, with long white hair neatly braided. Though his appearance was unremarkable, the aura he emanated was quite powerful, indicating that he was no ordinary person.Chen Wu, who had almost not noticed his surroundings, sensed the man’s presence before he drew near. He paused for a moment and turned, eyeing the elderly man with a

Chapter 107: The Gate of Fate Opens
The corridor grew heavier with each step. After the fierce battle against Yue Sha and the shadow creatures, Chen Wu, Lan Mei, and Liu Yin remained vigilant. The air around them trembled subtly, as if something unseen was lurking in the darkness."The energy here is shifting…" Liu Yin whispered, his fingers gripping the ancient map tightly. "We're getting closer to the main chamber."Lan Mei ran her hand along the stone walls, which now felt warmer. "There's a power flowing through this place… like something is waiting for us."Chen Wu unsheathed his sword, his sharp eyes scanning the narrowing path ahead. "Whatever it is, we need to be ready."They continued forward until the corridor opened into a vast chamber. In its center stood an ancient altar, adorned with glowing inscriptions. Floating above it, a black tome hovered slowly, surrounded by swirling dark energy."The Shadow Heaven Codex…" Liu Yin murmured, his voice filled with both awe and trepidation.Before they could take anot
Chapter 106: Shadows Behind the Gate of Destiny
The long, dark stone corridor welcomed them. A damp, ancient scent filled the air. The dim light from glowing crystals on the walls provided faint illumination, casting eerie shadows that danced along the passage.“We must stay alert,” Chen Wu whispered, his eyes sharply scanning every corner. “Yue Sha won’t let us walk through easily.”They moved cautiously, the echo of their footsteps reverberating down the hallway. Liu Yin tightly gripped the ancient scroll, trying to decipher the symbols carved into the walls. “These symbols... they look like protective spells. This place is guarded by ancient powers.”Lan Mei nodded, her fingertips brushing against one carving that radiated warmth. “The energy is pure... but something feels off.”BRUAAK!Suddenly, the wall behind them collapsed, sealing off their exit. Black mist swirled from the rubble, forming a tall figure with glowing red eyes.Yue Sha emerged from the shadows, her silver mask gleaming menacingly in the crystal light. “You’ve
Chapter 105: The Secret Behind the Moonlight
They began exploring the temple, following the clues from the ancient map. Every step was taken with caution, knowing that a single mistake could be fatal.In one of the chambers, they discovered an altar adorned with strange symbols. Atop the altar lay a small wooden box, encrusted with gemstones.“That must be the key,” Liu Yin whispered.But before they could take it, a rustling sound made them turn around. From the shadows, figures clad in black emerged—members of the Hai Clan.“We've been expecting you,” said their leader, a masked man with a hoarse voice.Chen Wu unsheathed his sword. “The Hai Clan. I should’ve known you wouldn’t let us go so easily.”A battle erupted. Chen Wu and Lan Mei fought the Hai Clan members with all their strength. Swords clashed, energy exploded around them, and the room trembled under the unleashed power.Meanwhile, Liu Yin attempted to grab the wooden box. But as soon as he touched it, a trap was triggered. The floor beneath him opened, revealing a p
Chapter 104: Chen Wu’s Resolve
In the middle of a dense forest in the southern region, Chen Wu and Lan Mei stopped briefly to catch their breath. The sound of a small stream nearby was calming, but the atmosphere between them remained tense. The aftermath of the battle in Thousand Lights City still lingered, and they knew that their next move would determine their fate.Lan Mei sat on a large rock, cleaning the bloodstains from her sword. "We can't keep going like this, Chen Wu. Every time we move, they always find us. The Hai Clan won't stop until they capture you."Chen Wu stood at the riverbank, gazing at the flowing water with sharp eyes. "I know. But we have no other choice. The Heavenly Shadow Tome is the key to uncovering the truth I've been searching for. If the Hai Clan wants it, that means they know something we don't."Lan Mei sighed. "But is it worth the risk we're taking? The Hai Clan is not an opponent we can underestimate. Hai Yushuang clearly has a bigger plan, and she won’t stop until she gets what
Chapter 103: The Shadow of the Hai Clan
Inside a grand hall illuminated by dazzling crystal lights, a young woman sat on the main seat. She wore a red robe embroidered with gold, her long hair neatly tied, and her sharp eyes exuded dominance.In front of her, a man knelt with his head lowered. "Young Miss, we have confirmed that Chen Wu has left the Heavenly Light Sect and is currently in Thousand Lights City."The Young Miss of the Hai Clan—Hai Yushuang—smiled faintly, but behind that smile lay a dangerous intent. "So he finally left..."She held a teacup in her hand and took a slow sip. "And what about the people we sent?"The man swallowed before replying. "They... failed. Chen Wu killed them all."CRACK!The teacup in Hai Yushuang's hand cracked, spilling tea onto her fingers, but she didn't care. "As expected, he's not easy to deal with. But that doesn't matter."She stood and looked out the window. "He's always been a thorn in my side. This time, I won't let him escape."Her eyes gleamed coldly."Prepare our best peop
Chapter 102: The First Step into the Outer World
Chen Wu and Lan Mei stood at the gates of the Heavenly Light Sect, gazing at the vast expanse of mountains stretching before them. The morning air was fresh, but in their hearts, there was an undeniable tension.Elder Xuan, along with several sect elders, accompanied them to the exit."The journey into the outer world will not be easy," Elder Xuan said with wisdom in his voice. "You must always be vigilant, especially against powerful organizations like the Sky Alliance, the Blood Demon Clan, and, of course, the Shadow Black Sect."Chen Wu nodded. "We understand, Elder."Lan Mei smiled faintly. "We will return one day, bringing glory to this sect."Elder Xuan chuckled. "I look forward to that day."After their final bow, Chen Wu and Lan Mei stepped out of the sect. With each step, they moved further away from the place they had called home.The Black Mist ForestSeveral days of smooth travel passed until they finally reached the Black Mist Forest—a place notorious for its natural pois
Chapter 101: Traces of Darkness
Chen Wu continued staring at the empty hall entrance after the departure of the silver-haired man and his companions. Though his body felt exhausted, his mind was filled with countless questions.Who exactly was the Shadow Sect? And why were they interested in him?Lan Mei grasped his arm, her face full of concern. "You really need to be careful, Chen Wu. People like them don’t come without a reason."Chen Wu nodded. "I know. But I can’t just sit back without finding out what’s really going on."Lan Mei was silent for a moment before letting out a deep sigh. "Alright. If you really want to investigate, then I’m coming with you."Chen Wu gave a faint smile. "Thank you, Lan Mei."Before they could discuss further, an elderly man in the sect’s elder robes entered the hall. His face, usually calm and wise, now bore a trace of concern."Chen Wu," he called in a firm voice.Chen Wu immediately bowed in respect. "Elder Xuan."Elder Xuan observed the disciples still gathered in the hall befor
Chapter 100: The Shadow That Lurks
Chen Wu remained standing in place, feeling the throbbing pain from his wounds. Lan Mei supported him anxiously."We need to get you treated," she said.Chen Wu shook his head. "I'm fine. These aren't serious wounds."Lan Mei sighed, knowing how stubborn Chen Wu could be. "At the very least, we need to find out who that cloaked man was. He’s not an ordinary person."Chen Wu nodded. "I want to know too. But more importantly, he called this the 'first test.' That means more tests are coming."Lan Mei bit her lip. "Then we need to prepare. I won’t let you face this alone."They returned to the sect’s headquarters, where they trained. However, as they arrived, the atmosphere felt strange. The air was thick with tension, and several disciples whispered among themselves with anxious expressions.Chen Wu stopped a passing disciple. "What's going on?"The disciple looked at him seriously. "Visitors from an outside sect have arrived. They want to meet the most talented disciples."Chen Wu exch
Chapter 99: The Test Begins
Chen Wu stood silently in the middle of the training ground, his mind filled with questions. The mysterious old man had appeared like a storm, delivering a lesson he had never expected. Despite his exhaustion, a stronger fire burned within him."Truly worthy of a technique to combat darkness," Chen Wu muttered, recalling the old man's words. But who was he, really? And what did he mean by ‘a more challenging test’?The next day, Chen Wu tried to return to his routine. He focused on basic techniques to calm his mind. However, something felt different. Every movement he performed now carried a depth he had never perceived before. It was as if the old man had opened a door to a new understanding."Focus on balance," he reminded himself, recalling the old man’s lesson. He tried to harmonize his attacks and defenses into one seamless flow. Each punch and kick he practiced felt more precise and powerful.But before he could immerse himself completely in his training, a voice broke his conce
