Title: Crane and Blood, The Mountain Cries (1)
“Hais!” Mo Chen chuckles. “Tonight is too hectic.” He smiles at Lo Jik. His gaze is full of affection. The knowledge of Lo Jik tackling Bai Ning Bing raised his value in the Clan’s eye, especially for the competition. Mo Chen is full of praise for Lo Jik as he accepts the youth’s request.
“Here,” Mo Chen bends slightly to unlock the entrance of his private Cultivation Chamber. “I can understand why you might be tense.” His words echo in the hall. There is no one. This is the Mo Estate’s restricted area. The Mo Family’s warehouse is not far. Mo Chen straightens his back. “Be sure to cultivate and rest well. Tomorrow is important—”
He turns his body to look at Lo Jik. However, he feels the intense wind pressure a moment too late!
*Splat*
Blood and gore explode as Lo Jik’s hands smash against Mo Chen’s skull. Shards of Mo Chen’s skull stick into Lo Jik’s skin, unable to break the defenses of his flesh as blood and brain matter splatter over Lo Jik and the surroundings.
The loud voice echoes as Lo Jik quietly activates his Heaven Piercing Eye Gu. He looks around, finding nothing out of the ordinary.
A white light emerges from his Aperture. This light branches and covers every part of Mo Chen, including every drop of his blood. It even covers the bone shards in Lo Jik’s calloused palms before collecting over the corpse. This light does not touch Mo Chen’s clothes. Lo Jik bends down and tears the corpse’s robes away.
In a moment, the light divides the corpse into a pile of clean skin, flesh, bones, and organs. In another pile is Gu Worms.
Rank 2 Dismemberment Gu!
Lo Jik quickly picks the six Gu. Two of them are Rank 3 Gu. One of which is Mo Chen’s storage Gu!
He looks at the pile of organs before releasing a red light.
The half-burnt, index-long blood-red incense shoots out and enters the pile of organs. It sucks away all the blood, even ‘licking’ the organs until there is nothing left.
Lo Jik carefully carries Mo Chen’s remains and enters the secret room. It’s an unadorned room with a small futon. Lo Jik closes the door before revealing a pale blue orb of light around his palm.
The Moonglow Gu!
Lo Jik picks up Mo Chen’s remains and turns them into dust. Organs are shredded and sliced several times. Lo Jik unzips the futon’s cover before stuffing the robes, bone powder, and flesh paste inside the futon.
Exhaling sharply, Lo Jik walks out and closes the door. He doesn’t lock the door from the outside.
He walks further inside the hall. The light from the lamps dims as he walks. Soon, he stands across the thick iron door. Lo Jik fishes out a Gu from his pocket. It’s a tadpole—Rank 1 Lock-Key Gu.
There is a keyhole in the door. However, this Gu will raise an alarm if any other method is used to open the door.
Lo Jik extends his finger. He places it against the keyhole as blood seeps from his tip. It fills the keyhole before taking the shape of an odd spiral key. Filling molds and shapes like this is effortless for the Rank 3 Blood Jade Change Gu. And it’s more efficient than spending time to refine Mo Chen’s Gu. Since Lo Jik killed Mo Chen, the remnant Will inside his Gu is uncooperative and hateful against the youth.
Lo Jik twists his finger and—
*Kacha*
The sound of iron giving way echoes in the hall. The tadpole turns bright red. Before it can release a noise, Lo Jik pinches it between his index and thumb.
Mo Chen’s temporary ‘inheritance’ is down to five Gu.
Lo Jik pushes the iron gate, entering the warehouse. This warehouse is twice the size of the Clan’s Secret Gu Room. After all, the Mo Faction stores everything here. Meanwhile, the Clan has different areas to store various items.
Since Lo Jik killed the Rank 1 Gu, the keyhole in the door is now unable to lock. He can freely close the door. If he had killed the Gu before unlocking the door, it would have remained locked and unable to be budged by the Blood Jade Change Gu.
His gaze instantly falls on a ‘wall’ of wooden chests. Lo Jik’s gaze brightens as he walks and picks one chest from the top. Opening it reveals neatly placed oval Primeval Stones!
‘A Chest for 10000 stones. There are 1… 2… 5… 48 chests here!’
Lo Jik retrieves his Primeval Elder Gu and swiftly ‘borrows’ the Mo Faction’s entire Primeval Essence reserves!
‘There must also be more things inside Mo Chen’s Storage Gu.’
Lo Jik thinks.
It takes time for Lo Jik to store all of it. Once done, the Primeval Elder’s bitter expression changes. It looks slightly indifferent, with hints of joy escaping his gaze.
594210 Stones!
Lo Jik then turns and looks around. There are various Gu and booklets on different shelves. Lo Jik locates six dragonflies. Two have golden bodies, while the other four have silver carapaces.
These six are the Rank 2 Digital Shade Gu. This Gu can record and replay videos. One step further, and it will be Photo-Audio Gu. The Silver Dragonflies possess Rank 3 recipes, and the Golden Dragonflies contain Rank 4 Gu recipes. These Gu are staple products for any Clan. An Elder can enter the Clan’s secret chamber and look through these Gu for 15 minutes. However, Lo Jik cannot steal the Digital Shade Gu in the Clan’s underground storage.
‘The most valuable possession of the Gu Yue Village is the recipe for Rank 1 Moonlight Gu. It’s an artificial Gu, and most of the Clan’s advancement Recipe is based on this Gu. Only the Clan Leader and the Secret Hall Leader possess this recipe. Aside from that, it should be the Rank 5 fusion recipe.’
However, Lo Jik isn’t greedy for them. He likes the Moonglow Gu due to its versatility with his martial arts, but it is challenging to feed once Lo Jik leaves the village. After all, the Moon Orchids are the Gu Yue Clan’s specialty. Other Villages might grow the Moon Orchids, but the prices may increase due to regional rarity.
Lo Jik sets his sights on other material after the Digital Shade Gu. He looks at chests of rare materials and the Storage Gu filled with Gu Food. All these Gu are the Rank 2 Hemp Sac Gu. The Gu is an index-long bag of hemp. Beside the Gu are tags with the names of materials stored.
This Gu is easy to use, without unique restrictions like the Earth Hole Gu. However, it cannot keep things fresh.
Lo Jik stuffs them in a money bag around his waist. Most of the materials will be used in feeding Mo Chen’s Gu.
That’s all there is in the secret room.
‘Is it?’ Lo Jik narrows his eyes. Mo Chen is an Old Player. Does a cat teach the tiger all its tricks?
No!
The irides of Lo Jik’s left eye discreetly sparkle nine colors!
Heaven Piercing Eye Gu!
Lo Jik locates a small, hidden room.
He walks to the left corner of the room before pushing his finger against the slight wooden protrusion that could be chalked to the building getting old.
A wooden lid flips open from the wall, revealing a strange Rank 4 Gu.
‘Mo Chen, you sly dog!’
Lo Jik smirks.
This Gu is very special. It looks like a stick insect. Its yellow body’s length is equal to an infant’s skull. It crouches and keeps its eyes closed. There are four sections on its body.
This is a storage Gu—Rank 4 Kindling Will Gu.
It stores Gu Worms. But it’s more specialized than that! This Gu’s feeding and use is combined. It can stow wild Gu Worms in its body before consuming a Gu Master’s ‘Will’ and essence, using it to slowly refine the Gu inside its space! So, its feeding pattern is unusual, and it consumes at the same interval as a Rank 1 Gu is in use.
Rank 1 stores 10, Rank 2 stores 20, Rank 3 stores 30, and Rank 4 stores 40 Gu! However, the speed of refining so many Gu simultaneously is painfully slow.
‘Mo Yan’s Gu must be stored inside the Gu.’ Lo Jik narrows his eyes. Even though this method is slow, he has a space to store all the unrefined Gu Worms. ‘I can also actively refine other Gu. The priority shifts from Mo Chen’s storage Gu to this. Besides, I have food for all the Gu. These Gu will surely go hungry. It will be an opportune time to refine them.’
‘Especially the Kindling Will Gu. Its eyes are closed. It’s refining the Gu inside its body using Mo Chen’s remaining will. I can only see the other Gu inside it after making it mine. However, all the food in the Hemp Sac Gu should be tailored for the Gu in the storage unit.’
Lo Jik gently picks the Kindling Will Gu. He hides it inside his clothes.
He turns around and looks at the remaining scrolls and rare materials not inside any Gu. These materials are not perishable.
Lo Jik crouches on the floor before pressing his hand against the wood.
Blood-Red blade slices out the wooden floor, opening a panel to the ground. Lo Jik stands and collects all the items in one spot before pressing his left hand on the ground. On his palm is a mark of an earthen ring.
The Earth Hole Gu opens its mouth as Lo Jik tosses everything inside the Gu.
He smiles and gives himself a sniff. Noting nothing out of the extraordinary, Lo Jik closes the warehouse’s door before informing the security guards outside that Mo Chen’s old injuries are acting, and he is meditating inside the secret room. Nobody is authorized to enter until Mo Chen says so.
Then, after a shower, Lo Jik temporarily stores his Gu in his room with the protective and silent Blood Torrent Python before visiting the Clan Leader’s Pavilion.
Lo Jik sincerely apologized for his Grandfather’s inability to make it to the competition tomorrow. Gu Yue Bo revealed an understanding demeanor before encouraging Lo Jik to do his best in the competition.
<<<>>>
Lo Jik doesn’t plan to sleep the night. It’s not his first all-nighter, and Gu, like the Battle Instincts and Blood Rousing Incense, assures his peak power during combat.
Instead, he must plan and organize. Anyone who makes a dangerous trip without any plan is a fool. Lo Jik wanted to stay and cultivate longer. But he kept checking the Crane Tide from his house, and it didn’t plan to move. Even if it’s nothing, Lo Jik must prepare for the worst.
Of course, the trip organization involved the journey, destination, and Gu.
Lo Jik planned to travel to the Shang Clan. It’s a Super-sized Clan no worse than the Tie Clan. However, Shang Clan is the only place in the Southern Border where outsiders can improve by leaps and bounds compared to the other Super Clans.
Such a trip could take him months, if not a year. He wanted to travel by the Bai Gu and Fei Hou Mountains. His desire to entire the Bai Gu Mountain stems from an inheritance’s hint. He needs two people for the Inheritance. Lo Jik’s first choice was Mo Yan. Should Bai Ning Bing join him, he will have to reconsider. Bai Ning Bing may attack him after discovering the inheritance or not. He must spend some time before judging the book—Bai Ning Bing. And Fei Hou Mountain? The Soul’s Blood Gu from the Blood Crazed Monk revealed intriguing knowledge about that mountain.
As for the rest of the journey?
Well, they will have to get by in some manner.
Of course, all this is based on the assumption the Crane Tide is aggressive.
Finally—Gu!
First is the staple Gu of the Clan—Moonlight.
Lo Jik has its Rank 2 and 3 variants, the Moonglow and Golden Moon. The Rank 3 Golden Moon Gu consumes a whopping 370 Moon Orchid Petals a month compared to the 240 Petals a month for the Moonglow Gu. Moon Orchid Petals perish in 4 days. Nobody believed Lo Jik purchased a year’s worth of stock of the petals to store it. There are two reasons for that. First, nobody knows about the Earth Hole Gu. Second, Lo Jik continued purchasing Moon Petals for his Gu, not touching his reserves.
‘Golden Moon will survive for a little over 7.5 months. I can extend it to 9 months if I skimp on some of its meals. The disadvantage of choosing the Gu is that it lasts 3 months less than the Rank 2 Gu. However, Moonglow’s and Golden Moon’s range of 10 meters does not change. The increased attack power may also be necessary to survive. The two Gu aren’t destined to last long in my hands. I might as well pick the superior option.’
Lo Jik doesn’t kill the Moonglow Gu. It’s useable for now. However, he won’t feed the Gu.
He always wanted to refine a Bow Gu for his long-ranged methods. However, he never got the time.
He shakes his head and thinks of the defensive means. Lo Jik possesses the Blood Jade Change and Bamboo Armor Gu. The latter does not compare in versatility. However, the Rank 3 Blood Jade was injured during his battle with Bai Ning Bing.
‘Blood Jade Change offers offense and defense in one Gu. It’s precious and cannot be given up. Although I have a year’s supply for the Gu, it’s injured and will feed more during its healing. But the Jade supply in the Hemp Sac Gu will last me another year! It should be for this Gu.’
Lo Jik takes out a familiar Gu. It was on Mo Chen. It’s like a rock, stable and quiet—the White Jade Gu. This must be Mo Chen’s emergency defensive measures.
‘It’s useless.’
Again, Lo Jik won’t feed it. But he won’t kill it. What if he needs it?
‘Actually, I don’t have any food for Bamboo Armor Gu. It’s also not fed by Mo Chen for a while. This Gu consumes bamboo. Other mountains may not have such a wealthy supply of Bamboo. I can only hope the Crane Tide passes.’
Its defenses are weaker than the Blood Jade Change Gu. But he can always use them together!
The third gift from Mo Chen is an Undying Grass Gu. Lo Jik got its food from the storage.
He shifts his attention to the other Gu he picked from Mo Chen’s corpse aside from White Jade Gu.
There are two Rank 3 Gu, one Rank 2 Gu, and one Rank 1 Gu.
Rank 3 Phoenix Butterfly Wings Gu.
Rank 3 Eight-Sectioned Gourd Gu.
Rank 2 Red Steel Relic Gu.
And Rank 1 Liquor Worm.
Rank 3 Phoenix Butterfly Wings Gu sprouts beautiful, feathered butterfly wings, allowing a Gu Masters to fly. However, a Gu Master must learn how to fly. Fortunately, Lo Jik’s Feathered Boots Gu pairs nicely with this Gu.
Rank 3 Eight-Sectioned Gourd Gu is an eight-colored gourd that sucks and spits the items. It’s Mo Chen’s storage Gu.
As for the Red Steel Relic Gu…
‘Gu Yue Mo Chen had two. One was given to Mo Bei. The useless lad died after advancing to Rank 2 Peak Stage. It should be my 5th Relic Gu. Just… sigh.’
He shakes his head.
Lo Jik’s gaze falls on the Liquor Worm.
It’s the Gu Fang Yuan used to rise the ranks. But why does Mo Chen have it?
Yao Ji’s image flash in his mind.
‘No eternal enemies; Only eternal benefits. He must have purchased this from Yao Ji after her granddaughter’s death.’
Lo Jik can’t be sure what the plan was. But he had no liquor to feed the Gu.
Then comes the six Rank 2 Digital Shade Gu and 18 Rank 2 Hemp Sac Gu!
‘There must also be Gu inside the Kindling Will Gu.’
Lo Jik exhales sharply.
He earned a lot!
However, it will take some to digest and organize the gains. The useless and expensive-to-feed Gu will die. Freeing Lo Jik’s thoughts.
There is already an invisible pressure on him. Even if the Crane Tide doesn’t attack, he cannot stay!
He’s beyond the point of return!
After organizing everything, Lo Jik thinks of something. He quietly summons a light.
He might as well summon his bronze reward.
Shadows dance, and a Gu Worm descends on his lap. There is a strange look in Lo Jik’s eye as he picks the Rank 1 Heart Engraved Gu.
‘Could this be…’
He calms himself before using the Gu.
It turns into a red light before engraving knowledge in his heart.
‘It’s not the Heavenly Essence Treasure Lotus Recipe. Sigh. It’s the same as the Polished Series Gu recipe. I can’t even be mad.’
Rank 1-4 Liquor Worm series.
Lo Jik knows about the Rank 1 Liquor Worm and Rank 3 Seven Fragrances Liquor Worm. However, it’s the first time he’s read about the Rank 2 Four Flavors Liquor Worm and the Rank 4 Nine Eyes Liquor Worm.
Seeing the Kindling Will Gu open its eyes and reveal a weak expression, Lo Jik sighs.
‘Back to work. I can use the combined pressure of all my Gu and one use of Heavenly Essence Treasure Gu to work on the Kindling Gu. It’s weak and hungry. Mo Chen must have entered the Warehouse after escorting me to the Secret Room. Only by giving my all to refine this Gu can I begin digesting Mo Chen’s wealth.’
Lo Jik had the confidence to do that.
Why?
Unlike cultivation, where the Aperture Walls accept slight essence with every interaction, he can bulldoze his way into refining a Gu! He has hundreds and thousands of Primeval Stones! The Lotus Gu can refine them all and unleash an unending stream of essence!
This Kindling Will Gu can be considered the core of the Mo Family’s wealth!
<<<>>>
“Here,” Tie Xue Leng’s gaze brightens. He cannot help but feel slightly shocked as he enters the cave.
‘This Qing Mao Mountain is a massive underground arena, heavily modified. However, Gu Worms that inspect Earth Qi are rare. There are only a few in the Clan who can do that.’
He explores the cave. Unsurprisingly, remnants of Lightning Wolf occupy the cave. Xue Leng does not kill the small wolf pack but drives them away. Defending against a wolf tide and massacring a wolf pack are different concepts. Since there is no need for it, Xue Leng avoids shedding blood.
The cave ends eventually.
Momentarily stopping, Xue Leng uses a few one-time Gu before picking a direction and creating a new path.
*Crumble*
He opens a path until the rock crumbles, allowing him to step on soft red soil. Xue Leng crouches to touch the soil. A fistful of it swiftly crumbles away. Briefly contemplating, Xue Leng returns to the exit. He takes his copper mask off. The face revealed is that of a middle-aged man with greying sideburns. Tie Xue Leng is tanned and straight-jawed, a picture of grit, experience, and determination. He carefully embeds the copper mask into a rock wall.
Purplish smoky essence flows from Xue Leng’s hand into the copper mask. This mask is unexpectedly a Gu! The Divine Investigator feeds the Gu for a few minutes before entering the cave again. Even he is unwilling to enter without proper preparations.
He steps on the glowing red soil.
Xue Leng’s tall figure enters the gloomy, dark cavern surrounded by an eerie blood glow.
<<<>>>
Dawn.
Gu Masters collect in the mountain forest. On the Cliff stands the three Clan Leaders and their aids. There is also Tie Ruo Nan.
Gu Yue Bo smiles at the girl, questioning, “Will Lord Divine Investigator join us?”
Tie Ruo Nan shakes her head. She doesn’t know where her father is. However, Ruo Nan didn’t make the same vows as her father. So, she lies, “Father’s injuries are acting again.”
Gu Yue Bo nods in understanding. It was merely a political move. Tie Xue Leng’s name slightly suppressed the Bai and Xiong Clan Leader as the latter steps forward.
“Everyone, today is the preliminary contest to determine who enters tomorrow’s tournament! Everyone has a token. Those who collect 30 tokens qualify! Although there are no rules against life and death, I hope you can be lenient to your comrades.”
One can see how the Xiong Clansmen outnumber Bai and Gu Yue Clansmen. However, Gu Yue Clan has the most Rank 3 Gu Masters under 30 years. Meanwhile, the Bai Clan has Bai Ning Bing. Also, the survivors of the two clans are elites and veterans. But the Xiong Clan still possesses weak Gu Masters.
Despite possessing heavy eyebags, Lo Jik’s gaze is sharp. He gave his all to refine the Kindling Will Gu. There were 7 Gu inside it. Four belonged to Mo Yan, and the Mo Faction must have collected the other three for Mo Chen to refine. Lo Jik stowed the remaining 28 Gu inside the Rank 4 Kindling Will Gu. It can be said that the initial period of digesting Mo Chen’s wealth has passed.
However, he feels tense.
Lo Jik doesn’t dare glance at the sky. All the clouds above the Qing Mao Mountain hide Cranes.
Fang Yuan narrows his eyes. He stands beside Fang Zheng and Qing Shu. Tie Ruo Nan’s act last night planted doubt in everyone’s mind. However, Fang Zheng wishes to pay him back. He can use Fang Zheng as a cover before escaping.
‘I have the Thunder Wings Gu. Other Gu Masters also have flying-type Gu. However, they cannot match my experience. But I should be sufficiently away from the Clan Leader before escaping.’
The truth is, Fang Yuan should have died yesterday at Fang Zheng’s hands. However, Fang Zheng is his ally in this life.
‘Fate works in mysterious ways.’
Fang Yuan sighs.
Bai Ning Bing wishes she could focus on Fang Yuan. He was intriguing to her like Lo Jik. She no longer feared the inevitability of her death, and Lo Jik’s words cleared her confusion, too. She is a young talent. Why would Bai Ning Bing waste her life?
She already used the Stone Aperture Gu. The cost of the Gu is her Aperture wall’s petrification and inability to regenerate essence naturally.
‘Hehe, so I must be careful in using my essence. Extreme Aperture had a heaven-defying 60% recovery rate per hour. However, I lost one of my best advantages. Let’s see how I fare now. Only…’
She discreetly glances at the sky.
‘Was Lo Jik lying or telling the truth? Regardless, I already brought that Gu. This preliminary is my last act of repayment to the clan and the Clan Leader. I won’t stay here any longer.’
Tie Ruo Nan keeps a close look at Fang Yuan.
‘I must not let him escape my sights.’
Fang Yuan is her first case. The lack of evidence does not mean she cannot use mystical Gu to locate different things. Tie Ruo Nan already made a firm step forward last night. She will soon crack this case!
“The Competition begins!”
<<<>>>
Tie Xue Leng uses the Rank 5 Righteous Gu to float. It’s a mind-type Gu that creates formless waves. It can only be used by Gu Masters possessing a just, righteous heart!
He looks around as several streams fall into a large pond in the massive cavern with an open height of 15 meters, excluding the deep blood pond. These streams are made from beast blood, absorbed by Qing Mao Mountain, and let inside this spacious arena. The blood’s heavy stench assaults Xue Leng’s senses. He gazes in the center of the pool.
Xue Leng’s presence elicits a reaction.
A humongous shadow swims underneath the Blood Pond. Small shadows darken before flying out of the water. These figures are not fish. They are bats! They are blood-red and possess two pairs of wings.
Rank 3 Bladewing Blood Bat Gu!
“Won’t you come out and greet me, Gu Yue First Gen Patriarch?”
Xue Leng’s voice seems to carry a formless weight that suddenly paralyzes the thousands of chittering bats flying his way.
This is the effect of Rank 5 Heaven Earth Magnificent Sound Gu! This Gu attacks using sound waves. However, Tie Xue Leng controlled the Gu’s effects.
The sound of water bursting apart echoes as a terrifying 40-meter-long blood-red python with golden bones sticking on its head like a crown hisses at Tie Xue Leng.
Rank 5 Blood River Python Gu!
Lo Jik’s Blood Torrent Gu is childish compared to this Gu!
The records of the Gu Yue Clan state that a Rank 5 Blood River Python attacked the mountain once. Gu Yue First Gen fought it off and secured peace for everyone!
Tie Xue Leng snorts as massive pressure explodes from his body. It causes the bats to fall down while the Blood River Python feels momentarily suppressed.
It lets out a hateful screech before pouncing at Tie Xue Leng. However, he uses a Rank 4 Oil Dragon Gu.
A pitch-black dragon made from natural oil shoots out, entangling with the Blood River Python. The Oil Dragon does not have a solid body and cannot hold the python. It splashes oil all over the python’s skin.
As the python destroys and weakens the Rank 4 Oil Dragon Gu, Xue Leng uses the Rank 4 Fire Dragon Gu!
The Blood River Python hisses in pain as the Fire Dragon expands after combusting the oil around the python’s body!
The situation continues for a while. The terrifying flame spills and burns the surrounding Bladewing Blood Bats as the RIver Python’s body chars.
The python suddenly hisses and enters the blood pond, instantly losing its aggression.
The Bats also uniformly line themselves.
‘Finally here.’ Tie Xue Leng narrows his eyes after noticing the change.
A jet of blood rises from the pond’s center. It alleviates a coffin to Tie Xue Leng’s altitude as the lid shoots open. Within the coffin is a terrifying corpse. There is no skin on its body. Sharp fangs protrude as its blood-red flesh twitch. Its thin eyelids open, revealing a bloodshot gaze.
The First Gen Gu Yue Leader!
Unexpectedly, he survived for 1000 years by transforming into a Blood Wight using the rank 5 Blood Wight Zombie Gu!
The First Gen Gu Yue leader opens its mouth.
“Thou art poisoned, Junior. Yet thou dare—”
*Drrrrrrrr*
The zombie stops speaking as a giant hand made of rocks tears into the cavern, instantly smashing its mountainous fist into the coffin and cratering the Zombie a few meters into the red wall!
Surprisingly, this mountain creature has an unadorned metal face—Tie Xue Leng’s Mask!
The Rank 5 Giant Mountain Puppet Gu.
A Gu Master can cover oneself in the puppet or use it as a puppet. Fortunately, Xue Leng left the mask outside, converging hard rocks to form the puppets instead of the soft ones made from the red soil.
Xue Leng floats near the puppet as rocks part for him to enter.
‘It’s good that you came,’ Xue Leng snorts. ‘Swiftly ending it is the way to go.’
As righteous as he is, Xue Leng isn’t the kind to show respect and courtesy to someone brewing a Blood Calamity!
