Chapter 901: Hei Yu
The mention of the Blood Sea and the ruling emperor of that place didn’t interest the Moon Goddess as much. The three people who had helped the Tan Family must be repaid even though it was an intentional help from the other side it was done due to the goodness in their heart. However, she also didn’t know much about the Blood Sea and those who live in it.
The Goddess of the Moon asked, "Regardless of what kind rules the Blood Sea, I am more interested in repaying those brothers who made a move to protect the Tan Family even though they had just met today. To me this is more important."
Once the Immortal Sun God heard this, he chuckled for a bit. "Alright. I will tell you all I know about them. According to Shengyu’s description, these three brothers must be half-blood demons who live at the shore of the Blood Sea. You cannot exactly call them people of the Blood Demon Emperor. They are most likely children of the Blood Demons who went to shore and assaulted female humans."
"They assault the innocent?" Tan Bingyu asked with frosty words.
The Immortal Sun Emperor, Shen Jueyang said, "Blood Demons are creatures born from the Blood Sea itself. They considered themselves the Blood Demon Emperor’s children when in reality they are just monsters born from the resentment accumulated at the Blood Sea."
"They are creatures with intelligence and have enough power that can rival the elves. However, the difference is huge between them. The Elven Race are the beloved children of the World Trees and they were born to protect the World Tree. On the other hand, Blood Demons were born from the resentment lingering at the Blood Sea and Blood Sea considered them as annoyance and slaves. While the Blood Demons considers themself as the children of the Blood Demon."
"Think about it. The Blood Demon Emperor is an extremely lazy being who loves to sleep in his blood sea. The kind that even if the world is falling, he would still be sleeping. Why would he create Blood Demons? The lingering aura of his territory created them, no it’s more like a mutation of some kind."
The explanation of the Immortal Sun Emperor made everyone realize how strange the world is. You are an emperor yourself but you are too lazy and just went to sleep but the next time you woke up, you had hundreds of beings calling you father. Isn’t that scary?
"Doesn’t that mean those three brothers were half-blood demons? And half human?" Xue Renxue asked.
Shen Jueyang spoke, "It’s more of a human tainted with a demon’s blood. Humans in the Immortal World are born with divinity. So it is almost impossible to mix it with another bloodline unless this bloodline is too powerful. The heavenly laws of this world are biased towards humans. So beings born from a human and a Blood Demon had more human blood but possessed the power of the Blood Demon."
"Blood Demon Halflings had poisonous blood, strong physical strength and fast regeneration. But due to this, they drink blood as their main source of strength. This blood can be that of a human or an animal as long as its blood. They also lost control when they lost too much blood."
"But master if they drink blood can’t they just drink in the blood sea?" Tan Shengyu asked.
A serious expression appeared on Shen Jueyang’s face when this question was asked, "Blood Demons can drink as they are born from it and were born crazy. But Blood Demon Halflings cannot because their core is human and drinking the Blood Sea is just the turning to a real Blood Demon without any ounce of human emotion and just a demon who kills for blood," said the Immortal Sun Emperor.
The Goddess of the Moon said, "Either way, we are going to meet them three days from now on. I am also going when that time comes. I have rested enough. This time, I’m going to roam the place with Jueyang. You guys can rest."
"Mistress, I am not tired. I want to leave with you," said Tan Bingyu.
Xue Renxue said, "Me too! I can accompany Bing’er and the Mistress!"
"Alright. We can all go together after eating," said the Moon Goddess.
Tan Shengyu excitedly said, "Then I..."
"You aren’t going. Shengyu, have you trained the new sword technique I taught you before? You cannot stop the training unless you master three moves!" The Immortal Sun Emperor said to his disciple with a stern look.
Shen Jueyang planned to send Tan Shengyu to his empire for training. Just in case he had also taught him sword technique aside from his own legacy. It can be said that he is now being trained as Shen Jueyang’s successor. That’s why he is a bit strict to this silly disciple of his.
As expected when Tan Shengyu heard his master’s words, he felt depressed almost immediately. However, he cannot go against his own master and can only do as he was told to do. After eating he went to the open area to practice swords. After some preparation, Yue Xuexia realized that her current carriage pulled six phoenixes was too eye-catching and something like attracting too much attention was never a part of her personality. After all, Yue Xuexia is a bit introvert in reality.
The Moon Goddess said, "Bingyu, Renxue, I have some assets in the Inner Haven. Let’s visit it one at a time. There is also a problem with the carriage, since this is a floating island we need something else to ride on. The Six phoenix mounts are too eye-catching. I don’t like using it unless necessary."
"We can just check the Beast Petshop for a new flying mount. If nothing in there fits your taste we can just catch a few from the wild," said the Immortal Sun Emperor.
Tan Bingyu and Xue Renxue as the aides of the Goddess of the Moon listens to everything their mistress wants to say.
Xue Renxue said, "We just use a flying device down the island and use an ordinary carriage from Lord Shen the land."
"Mistress, where are we going first?" Tan Bingyu asked.
The Moon Goddess thought for a moment and said, "Let’s head to the Evernight Manor."
Chuckles~
"A dangerous place to pay a visit to," said Shen Jueyang. He seems to know what kind of place the Evernight Manor is.
After a few preparations, the Moon Goddess, the Immortal Sun Emperor, Tan Bingyu and Xue Renxue had descended from the Floating Island One. On land, they had used a carriage prepared by Shen Taiyang which was pulled by Flame Warhorses. Though it was also eye-catching compared to the carriage pulled by phoenixes this is already low-keyed.
The location of the Evernight Manor is not a secret. However, to enter this place you will need an invitation of their token. For customers, they need to donate a huge amount of money for a chance to have business with this place and not just anyone can enter the Evernight Manor. However, right now the arrival of Yue Xuexia and her group had almost caused a commotion to the people of the Evernight Manor. After all, Flame Warhorses is something that is exclusive to the Immortal Sun Empire. They rarely send out this kind of war horse as it was said that this kind of horse is the greatest support a warrior can have during wars.
Now a carriage pulled by this kind of horses, how would the Evernight Manor would react? Clearly, it wasn’t as calm as others portray it to be. The moment Yue Xuexia and her group headed to the Evernight Manor, the people of the place had already sent the message to the Evernight Manor’s lord, Hei Yu.
At the Evernight Manor’s private area for the Lord of Evernight, a whole floor filled with comfortable luxury and a monotonous room of black and grey, on a king sized bed at the center of the room, a languid looking young man with black circles under his eyes is now lying down on his stomach asleep. His expressions were quite delicate, the kind a killer will not possess. But this delicate looking young man is not only one of the leaders of the Evernight manor. The peace in the room didn’t last long as someone came running to this area even banging the room with a huge sound of the door forcibly opened.
"Leader! There is an emergency!" The messenger said as he kneel beside the bed of their leader.
A soft pillow flew and directly hit the face of the messenger, the latter didn’t get angry or have any other reaction as he is used to this. As long as the thing that flew from his lord’s hands isn’t a blade this messenger will not avoid it.
Groans~
"Brat, if this emergency of yours is not as good as I thought, this lord is going to rip your head from your neck," Hei Yu said grumpily.
