“Who would write a letter to a tiger demon, isn’t this tiger demon always hiding from cultivators, not letting them know its whereabouts?”

The three of them couldn’t figure it out. With the cautious attitude of the tiger demon, there shouldn’t be anyone from the outside mountain knowing of its existence.

“Nian Nian, what is written in the letter?”

Meng Jingzhou cleared his throat and read in an emotional voice: “Brother Tiger, it has been a while since we last met. How have you been?”

“Brother Tiger is cautious and reluctant to show his presence, preventing the righteous path cultivators from being aware of his existence while only attacking ordinary humans. I greatly admire such a cautious way of practice, yet such a method of cultivation is still considered slow. The Great Era is upon us, with numerous heroes ready to compete. Everyone’s eyes are set on the Central Continent. Brother Tiger, haven’t you also seized this opportunity to leave your hometown, leave the Qiongqi lineage behind, and sneak into Song Mountain from the Demon Territory?”

“Carefully cautious… Don’t squeeze me, you two! Won’t I read it to you?” Lu Yang and Man Gu, trapping Meng Jingzhou in the middle, started directly reading the letter’s content.

“You’re reading too slow.”

“I will read faster; you two move away.”

Meng Jingzhou pushed the two away and continued reading: “Being carefully cautious is not wrong at all. However, in this awakening Great Era, being bold can help seize opportunities. Go for broke, purify your bloodline, transform into a pure-blooded Qiongqi to stand your ground in this Great Era.”

“This humble one dares to suggest that Brother Tiger and his mate could join us in Yanjiang Rudder, regarding cultivators as our prey, to plot great things together!”

“Inside the letter is a token given by this humble one. Brother Tiger can directly take this humble one’s token to Yanjiang Rudder to look for this humble one. I can vouch for Brother Tiger to become a manager directly.”

“Little brother Qin Yuanhao sends his regards.”

The letter was not long, but it revealed a lot of information.

Lu Yang analysed: “The letter mentions that the tiger demon doesn’t let the righteous path cultivators know about it. This doesn’t align with usual speech habits. Usually, they do not directly address ‘righteous path cultivators’, unless the writer of the letter is standing against the righteous path cultivators. Is this Qin Yuanhao a cultivator of the demonic path?”

This could also explain why there was a cultivator who knew about the tiger demon but didn’t report it.

In the Central Continent, the righteous path holds absolute dominance. The race of demons, devils, and ghouls are natural allies. Taking the tiger demon as an example, it doesn’t act directly but makes the ghouls trick humans into coming to it.

The tiger demon has a Qiongqi bloodline and is a definite golden core stage cultivator. It would be reasonable for a cultivator of the demonic path to try to win him over.

“So, is Yanjiang Rudder a base for the demonic sect?”

Meng Jingzhou nodded: “The demonic sect loves to use geographic names as their bases. We just don’t know which of the demonic sects this Yanjiang Rudder is associated with.”

Just like how the righteous path cultivators have the Five Great Immortal Sects, cultivators of the demonic path also have their own factions, known as the Four Great Devil Sects.

The demonic sect is an organized religion rather than a sect, with the biggest difference being whether or not they believe in a powerful existence.

The beliefs of the Four Great Devil Sects are distinct. Some say that the beliefs of the Four Great Devil Sects represent four different immortals, while others believe that the four beliefs of the demonic sect are merely four manifestations of a single immortal. There are various interpretations.

Very little information is publicly available about the demonic sect. Their whereabouts are elusive. Despite several joint searches by the Great Xia Dynasty and the Five Great Immortal Sects, they have been unable to find the main base of the demonic sect.

Whenever the righteous path cultivators eradicate a major demonic sect base, members of the demonic sect will appear like bamboo shoots after the rain, endless and hard to kill off completely.

Though the demonic sect is touted as mysterious, sneaky, ruthless and cruel, it’s really because the righteous path is too powerful. This causes the demonic sect to dare not show themselves openly and can only secretly scheme.

If the demonic sect’s lair could be found, there would be no need for the Five Great Immortal Sects to step in. The soldiers dispatched by the Great Xia Dynasty with the right command could turn the demonic sect upside down within five days and completely root out their base in a month.

This is the confidence of the righteous path.

Ultimately, the demonic path can never come to the fore.

Lu Yang shook the envelope and took out a bone token. There was a particular kind of True Qi imprinted on it. It was a method left by the demonic sect member named Qin Yuanhao, which outsiders couldn’t replicate.

Man Gu asked: “Can we join the demonic sect using this token?”

Finding the demonic sect’s nest is a great merit, definitely worth more than wiping out two tiger demons.

Lu Yang shook his head: “No, we can’t. If we join Yanjiang Rudder with his token, Qin Yuanhao will definitely find out.”

“Moreover, we don’t know the location of Yanjiang Rudder. How can we join?”

“Then what should we do?” Man Gu asked.

“Since it is called Yanjiang Rudder, it should be in Yanjiang County. We can go to Yanjiang County to inquire if there is someone named Qin Yuanhao, then follow him to find Yanjiang Rudder. He ranks himself as a little brother in front of the tiger demon, his cultivation level shouldn’t be higher than that of the tiger demon. We can kill him. That way, we can directly use the token and say we are old friends of Qin Yuanhao, here to join him, but we didn’t expect him to be dead.”

“Good plan.” Meng Jingzhou and Man Gu’s eyes lit up.

“Let’s rummage a bit more, see if we can find more valuable things.” Lu Yang excitedly urged Meng Jingzhou to work.

Meng Jingzhou found a fresh red herb, the size of a palm with a somewhat demonically captivating aura.

“Blue Blood Grass, why is it with red veins?” Meng Jingzhou was puzzled. The primary function of Blue Blood Grass is detoxification, its veins are blue-green, similar to rivers flowing on land. So, why was this one red?

Lu Yang squatted down for recognition, then said: “You forgot, the Blue Blood Grass’s primary function for the human race is to serve as a main ingredient for anti-toxin pills. For the Demon Race, it’s not the same.”

“The Blue Blood Grass facilitates purifying the bloodline, and it’s possible that the tiger demon has been nourishing this Blue Blood Grass by watering it with its blood for a long time. This makes the Blue Blood Grass adaptable to its Qiongqi bloodline. Based on its current growth, it would fully mature in a few months. After the tiger demon consumes it, the Qiongqi bloodline would be purified, thereby facilitating its golden core formation.”

The “blood” in the name Blue Blood Grass came for this reason.

Lu Yang learnt about the knowledge of Blue Blood Grass from the Little Medicinal Kings.

“This Blue Blood Grass can no longer be used to make detoxification pills. It can only be consumed by a member of the Demon Race for bloodline purification.” Lu Yang stated.

“In that case, you guys should keep it. You can sell it on the market hold by the sect on the 15th of every month. It should fetch a good price.” Meng Jingzhou passed the medicinal herb to Lu Yang and Man Gu.

There are quite a few people in the sect who raise demon beasts. The medicine that can enhance the bloodline seriously has a market in The Seek Dao Sect.

Lu Yang and Man Gu passed it back and forth between themselves, but in the end, Man Gu didn’t shy away from Lu Yang and accepted the Blue Blood Grass.

Meng Jingzhou reminded Man Gu: “Don’t eat this Blue Blood Grass. The Ancient Barbarian Tribe is a branch of the human race. The Blue Blood Grass has no effect on your bloodline.”

Man Gu regretfully uttered a sound of acknowledgement.

Legend has it that the Ancient Barbarian Tribe originated from a romantic marriage proposal. During the ancient times when the human race still lived dispersedly in tribes, the strongest person in the tribe was considered a warrior.

One day, two tribes met. A male warrior from one tribe took a fancy to a female warrior from the other tribe and proposed to her, “Little lady, give me a smile. If it pleases me, I’ll marry you.”

The female warrior grinned and lifted a stone to swing back. The two began to wrestle, and in the end, the female warrior had the upper hand. She dragged the male warrior into her house, and they didn’t sleep all night.

Ten months later, the first Barbarian warrior was born.
