Chapter 787 You've asked this once already
Blood Skull and his men were completely unaware of the situation at the Blood Pool.
The two of them cut off all contact with the outside world and hid away to recover from their injuries.
After his injuries had healed somewhat, Lord Blood Skull led his men and rode at full speed back to the underground castle.
Moreover, they disguised themselves at every inn they stayed at along the way, and even asked the innkeeper to help them change their horses, which was very discreet.
After all, if they can successfully return to their master, they will be able to receive credit, so they naturally cannot have any accidents on the way, causing all their efforts to be in vain!
However, when they saw their long-missed owner, they sensed that the atmosphere was a bit strange.
It's so creepy!
The master, who should have been soaking in the blood pool, did not cultivate there upon his return. Moreover, his eyes even carried a hint of murderous intent! Especially the way he looked at them; just a single glance was enough to send chills down their spines.
Upon seeing this, Lord Blood Skull felt a sense of panic.
"Useless things!"
Both Blood Skull and his companion were somewhat bewildered by their master's reprimand!
But soon, someone nearby answered their questions.
"What? That bitch isn't dead? How is that possible?" Lord Blood Skull looked utterly incredulous.
"Yes, not only did we not die, but we also thoroughly enraged the other side. During this period, various martial arts figures and guards from Juebi City have been attacking our hunting teams. Our gangs that lured martial arts figures were also wiped out, and our blood supply was almost cut off. The losses were extremely heavy!"
After hearing the explanation, Lord Blood Skull and his Skeleton Blood Guards looked at each other in disbelief.
So, their originally flawless plan has not only resulted in the loss of all their subordinates and caused their master enormous trouble, but now even the blood pool is almost dried up!
How could the owner not be angry?
The look in their eyes that wanted to kill them was impossible to hide!
"Master, calm down!"
After learning what had happened, Lord Blood Skull and his subordinates immediately knelt down.
He started kowtowing and begging for mercy.
The mysterious masked man looked at the two kneeling before him and said coldly, "I don't keep useless people under my command, especially trash like this who are incompetent and only bring me trouble!"
Upon hearing this, the two kneeling men trembled violently!
I was almost scared to death!
If the master says this, those subordinates who anger him will suffer a terrible fate!
It's beyond just being tragic.
Their fate was to be plunged into a pool of blood!
Moreover, once you enter the blood pool, you will not die immediately. Instead, you will watch your body slowly melt in the blood pool and become one with it. This process will last for nearly nine days!
That's the ninth heaven! He was enduring torture alive!
Tell me, who could stand it!
You must not lose consciousness during this process!
Your consciousness will still be very clear!
It's simply worse than death!
Fortunately, now that the mysterious man has suffered a series of losses, he intends to give the two a chance to make amends.
He immediately said, "You may be somewhat useless, but on the other hand, you have still done things for me. Next, I will give you another task. If you mess it up for me again this time, then no one can save you!"
Then, he calmly explained the task.
Lord Blood Skull and the other Skeleton Blood Guard, as if granted a pardon, listened attentively before hurriedly getting up and leaving.
"Jia Daoshi, you are indeed formidable, but the world is vast, and you are not the only one! You are so young yet possess such strength, and now you are flaunting your brilliance, which is simply courting death!"
"And someone like you, even if the royal family is magnanimous, they wouldn't tolerate you, would they?"
The mysterious man muttered to himself, seemingly quite confident.
……
Cliffside City.
City Lord's Mansion!
"Thank you all so much this time. With me here, I'll make sure nothing happens to you!"
Jia Daoshi gently placed Xiaobai on a pile of warm straw, then spoke to Dabai and Erbai beside him.
Twelve days have passed since that night raid.
In the past few days, besides arranging for people to capture the mysterious Skeleton Blood Guard every day, Jia Daoshi has been treating the little white ape.
That night, if the white ape family of three hadn't risked their lives to protect Murong Jiu, he would have been separated from his beloved wife forever!
Of course, Jia Daoshi would repay the life-saving grace with the greatest gratitude!
"Woooooo~"
The great white ape let out a soft cry, stretched out a large hand to gently stroke its child, its eyes red-rimmed.
This little white ape was born after Jia Daoshi rescued it last time.
If Jia Daoshi hadn't intervened and saved the mother white ape, this baby white ape wouldn't have been born.
Its kindness at the time saved its life, and now it is risking its own life to protect Murong Jiu and block most of the Crimson Blood Poison.
It can be said that there is a divine will at play.
"Woooooo~"
Erbai also called out, looking dejected as he stood guard beside the little white ape.
Looking at the sorrowful expressions on Da Bai and Er Bai's faces, Jia Daoshi couldn't help but say, "You two don't need to be like this. With me here, your child won't die. Didn't I just force all the poison out of its body? Next, as long as I use my true energy to help it recover, it will soon be as strong as before!"
"Waaaaah~?"
Big White's spirits lifted.
"Why are you looking at me like that? If you don't even believe in my medical skills, who can you believe in?" Jia Daoshi was speechless after being looked at like that by Da Bai.
Upon hearing Jia Daoshi's words, a long-forgotten memory involuntarily surfaced in Da Bai's mind.
It and Erbai were saved by Jia Daoshi back then, and Jia Daoshi's medical skills are indeed trustworthy!
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"
Thinking of this, Da Bai's eyes brightened again.
Jia Daoshi then patted Da Bai on the shoulder and got up to leave.
Jia Daoshi was indeed grateful to the Bai family.
Murong Jiu patted the little white ape's head and said, "Little White, you need to take good care of yourself and recover. We'll play together again when you're all better."
These past few days, Murong Jiu has accompanied Jia Daoshi every time he comes to see the little white ape.
This is her savior, so of course she has to go with him.
Moreover, every time they come, they bring some rare and precious herbs that they themselves are reluctant to eat.
The food they ate was of the same standard as his own. If Da Bai and Er Bai weren't so big, Murong Jiu would have taken them directly to the kitchen to sit at the dining table to eat!
But this is ultimately impossible to achieve.
"My lord, is Xiaobai really alright? You're not lying to me, are you?" Murong Jiu asked, holding Jia Daoshi's arm.
"My lady, you've asked this a hundred times already." Jia Daoshi patted Murong Jiu's hand, a hint of helplessness in his voice.
