The Blood Of The Lord Chapter 41: The Gate to the Yin Clan
A bright morning greeted Chen Wu as he stepped out of the inn. The fresh air was soothing, but his mind remained restless. After the incident with Fang Zhu and his men, Chen Wu realized the time to infiltrate the Yin Clan’s territory was drawing near.“I need more detailed information about their structure and strength,” he muttered, adjusting the straw hat on his head. He walked toward a quieter district of the city, where merchants and informants often gathered.Chen Wu entered a small, unassuming tavern. In the corner of the room sat an old man in tattered robes, sipping tea. The man had a long white beard and piercing eyes like an eagle.Chen Wu approached and sat across from him. The old man glanced at him briefly before giving a faint smile. “Ah, you must be the newcomer looking for something,” he said warmly, though there was something in his tone that made Chen Wu cautious.“I’ve heard you have information about the Yin Clan,” Chen Wu said directly.The old man raised an eyebr
The Blood Of The Lord Chapter 42: Footprints in Purple Mist Village
Chen Wu arrived at Purple Mist Village as the sun tilted westward, casting a soft glow that gave the village a peaceful impression. Yet, beneath the calm exterior, Chen Wu sensed an unusual atmosphere. The villagers seemed wary, avoiding eye contact and moving quickly as if afraid of being watched for too long.“This isn’t an ordinary village,” Chen Wu muttered as he adjusted the straw hat on his head. He walked slowly through the narrow paths, observing every corner of the village.During his stroll, Chen Wu stopped in front of a small tavern. The inviting aroma of warm food made his stomach grumble, but that wasn’t what caught his attention. In the corner of the tavern, a young woman in simple clothing sat alone, sipping tea. Her gaze was vacant, but the aura she exuded was markedly different from that of the other villagers.“She must be Yin Xue,” Chen Wu thought.Chen Wu entered the tavern and chose a table not too far from her. He ordered tea and a plate of snacks from the server
The Blood Of The Lord Chapter 43: An Invitation from Yin Yue
Chen Wu had just left the tavern where he had obtained information about the Yin Clan. The cold night air enveloped Purple Mist Village, but his mind was filled with strategy and plans. His steps came to a halt when someone emerged from the shadows of a narrow alley.The man was dressed simply, but the aura he emitted was strong enough to suggest he was no ordinary person. His face was calm, yet his eyes were sharp."Chen Wu," the man called in a flat tone.Chen Wu turned to him with a cold gaze, his hand instinctively moving to the hilt of his sword. "Who are you? If you want to fight, make it quick."The man raised a hand, signaling for calm. "I’m not your enemy. I’ve been sent by someone you met earlier at the tavern."Chen Wu furrowed his brow. "Yin Yue?"The man nodded. "She wants to meet with you again. There’s something important she needs to discuss. She sent me to bring you to her."Chen Wu considered for a moment. Yin Yue was a member of the Yin Clan, but she seemed differen
The Blood Of The Lord Chapter 44: Entering the Lion's Den
They passed through a side door near the gate, guarded by two men in black attire. Yin Yue made a subtle gesture, and without much questioning, the guards opened the door. The aura inside immediately felt denser, like a suffocating dark mist.Chen Wu remained calm, his eyes scanning every corner of the place. The entrance to the Yin Clan’s main residence was filled with dark ornaments and ancient symbols. In the center was a large garden, but instead of flowers, it was adorned with eerie statues depicting ferocious creatures."This place is dreadful," Chen Wu muttered.Yin Yue simply nodded. "The Yin Clan has long worshiped dark forces. It’s part of their heritage."As they continued walking, they arrived at a grand hall. The hall was illuminated by lanterns with an ancient design, their glow a ghostly bluish-green that cast an eerie atmosphere. On the walls hung portraits of the Yin Clan’s ancestors, their stern faces seeming to watch anyone who passed by."Beyond this hall is where
The Blood Of The Lord Chapter 45: The Escape Route
Yin Yue swiftly pulled Chen Wu away as they saw a large group of soldiers moving toward them."Chen Wu, we can't fight them now. We need to leave," she urged.What Yin Yue didn’t realize was that the increasing deaths around them would only accelerate Chen Wu’s cultivation. That was why she panicked.Still, Chen Wu admitted that Yin Yue had a point. No matter how well his body absorbed death energy, fighting hundreds of opponents wouldn’t be easy. It was better to retreat for now."Do you have an escape route?" Chen Wu asked.Swoosh!A spear came flying toward him. Chen Wu slashed it in half with his sword, then said, "I'll hold them off here. Hurry!"Yin Yue bit her lip, hesitating for a moment before nodding quickly. "There’s a hidden path near the back garden. Follow me, and don’t fight for too long!"Chen Wu smirked slightly. "I won’t take too long, but they need to understand that I’m not an easy prey."Yin Yue dashed ahead while Chen Wu twirled his sword with swift movements, cr
The Blood Of The Lord Chapter 46: The Path to the Ancient Artifact
Yin Yue carefully held the map, folding it so that only the part she wanted to show Chen Wu was visible. Intentionally, she leaned in closer, the space between them becoming almost nonexistent. The faint scent emanating from her made Chen Wu frown for a moment—a mixture of discomfort and caution stirring within him."Here," Yin Yue said softly, her voice layered with mystery. Her slender fingers pointed to a marked spot on the map, located in the north. "Not far from here, there's a cave that, according to legend, holds the Ancient Artifact of the Yin Clan. If we can get there before anyone else, it will be a huge advantage."Chen Wu studied the map, doing his best to ignore Yin Yue's proximity. He knew full well that she had her own ways of manipulating situations, whether through charm or other means, but he kept his focus sharp."A cave in the north?" Chen Wu repeated her words with a neutral tone, his wary gaze fixed on her. "Are you sure there aren’t traps or guards? An artifact
The Blood Of The Lord Chapter 47: The Defiant Artifact
The stone warriors moved slowly, but each step sent tremors through the cave floor. One of them swung its colossal sword at Chen Wu. With incredible speed, Chen Wu leapt aside, retaliating with a slash of his own sword. Yet, his strike left only a small scratch on the warrior’s body.“Ordinary attacks won’t work,” Yin Yue said. She pulled out another talisman from her pocket and began chanting a spell. A golden light formed around her, creating a protective circle that kept the stone warriors at bay.Chen Wu realized that the death energy he possessed might hold the key to defeating these creatures. Closing his eyes briefly, he focused the energy into his sword. When he reopened them, his blade was cloaked in a dense black aura, radiating an intense, bone-chilling cold.With a powerful strike, Chen Wu attacked one of the stone warriors. This time, the creature’s body cracked and shattered into pieces.“Keep using that, Chen Wu!” Yin Yue shouted.Chen Wu continued his assault, destroyi
The Blood Of The Lord Chapter 48: Battle at the Exit
Chen Wu and Yin Yue stood at the mouth of the cave, facing dozens of Yin Clan members who had surrounded them. Each one exuded an intimidating aura, ranging from the Earth Realm to the Heaven Realm.“Looks like they’ve been expecting you, Chen Wu,” Yin Yue said, holding a talisman ready in her hand.Chen Wu gripped the Blade of Darkness tightly. Though the artifact’s power gave him a significant edge, he knew facing such a large group of enemies simultaneously would not be easy.“Seems I’ve become a special guest,” Chen Wu said as he stepped forward. “But this is just a warm-up for the stronger ones.”One of the leaders, a tall man in a purple robe with long white hair, stepped out from the crowd. His sharp eyes burned with anger. “You’ve caused enough chaos, Chen Wu. Return the artifact, and we might let you live.”Chen Wu smiled coldly. “Perhaps you should try taking it yourselves.”At the leader’s signal, the Yin Clan forces moved in.Swoosh!Dozens of energy spears hurtled toward

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
