CHAPTER 526 THE SLUMBER

Liu Jiu then realized why Chen Hao’s first reaction upon seeing him was not fear, but rather gleeful.

It was because he had become extremely strong. The depth of his strength could not be simply judged

by others.

He thanked me just now because he knew I’ll be dead within seconds. Liu Jiu regretted his actions.

If he didn’t follow Chen Hao, he probably would not have died; he would go back and brew his Spirit

Medicine. Perhaps one day, he could enter the mysterious realm of the Inner Energy.

But everything was too late.

“Wh-What do you want?” He was trying hard to breathe, but he did not have much breaths left.

“I just want your blood. Don’t worry, I will keep my promise, and let you die in one piece. Die

peacefully!” Chen Hao grabbed Liu Jiu’s neck and simply twisted it.

Liu Jiu widened his eyes, and then he was dead.

With a few herbs nearby, Chen Hao successfully extracted the essence of blood.

Then, he took the dog and hid in a corner.

In extreme nervousness, he gripped his black knife tightly.

The spirit fox was extremely greedy. If it wasn’t for their avaricious nature, they wouldn’t be on the brink

of extinction.

Suddenly, the dog’s eyes widened, and Chen Hao held his breath.

The spirit fox had appeared!

It treaded carefully into the cave, but its eyes betrayed its inner greed.

After making sure that the surroundings were safe, it decided to give it a try.

Squeak!

Squeaking, the spirit fox leaped to the essence of blood immediately.

This is a chance!

Chen Hao would never give another chance for it to escape.

He raised his hands, and the black knife flew out and struck on the weak points of the fox directly.

It was done!

Chen Hao rushed toward it and picked up the dead fox.

He was delirious.

“Liu Jiu, you’ve been a great help to me today. Your blood is very tempting to the spirit fox indeed!”

Chen Hao laughed.

“Woof, woof!” The dog wagged its tail happily as well.

“Of course, you’ve been a great help too! I’ll bring you out of here, and you can eat whatever you want!”

Chen Hao smiled.

He then held the dog in his embrace and found a nearby cave.

After killing the spirit fox, he had to drink its holy blood immediately.

According to the Scripture of Beasts, the holy blood would only exist for a short time. If he took too

long, the spiritual properties of the holy blood would evaporate.

Of course, Chen Hao also heard from his grandfather that the holy blood collected the spiritual

properties from the surroundings and contained immense power.

It could nourish his mind, and also improve his current Inner Energy.

After drinking the holy blood, he had to use special breathing techniques to coalesce the power.

According to his current level, he would probably need three days to finish the coalition process.

“Come here, you little doggie! Later I will block the cave, and after I drink the holy blood, I would enter a

deep slumber for three days. During these three days, you have to make sure to keep bugs and small

creatures away from me. Is that okay?” Chen Hao patted the dog’s head.

“Woof!” The dog stuck out its tongue, indicating that it understood his words and agreed.

A man and a dog then entered the cave.

At the same time, in the forests of An Ling, a group of people was looking for someone.

It was a group of around hundred people, equipped with weapons.

Among them, a young man in his twenties was standing with his hands behind his back. A few older

people stood next to him.

“You haven’t found him?” the young man asked, frowning.

“We still have no clue!” his servants replied.

“Bring the people from the Lu Family here!” His frown deepened.

He then saw Lu Zongyuan, who was covered in wounds, and Meng Kang, who obviously suffered from

serious injuries, being sent to him.

“You are sure that he came to An Ling? Are you lying to me?” he asked.

“Young Master Mo, how would I even dare to lie to you? He really came to An Ling! And the killing of

eight people from the Mo Family was definitely not done by anyone in the Lu Family! I hope Young

Master Mo understands the situation!” Lu Zongyuan said fearfully.

The young man was Mo Ning, the second son of the Master of Mo Family.

Lu Zongyuan heard of him long ago.

He was a cold and ruthless person.

Now that eight people from the Mo Family died in the Lu Family, the Mo Family naturally dispatched

someone to investigate their deaths. Lu Zongyuan was just a rich businessman; he knew he couldn’t

afford to offend both Chen Hao and the Mo Family

He then told the Mo Family the whereabouts of Chen Hao honestly. Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

Mo Yu then brought his men to look for Chen Hao.

“The Mo Family from Long Jiang has a deep feud with Chen Hao. It’s not just one or two years that

we’ve crossed paths with the Chen Family. I hope you are speaking the truth, Mr Lu. And I advise you

to keep your hands out of our affairs as well,” Mo Yu spoke expressionlessly.

“Of course, of course!” Lu Zongyuan agreed frantically.

“Young Master Mo, we found something!” one of his servants reported.

Right in front of them, they discovered two bodies on the ground that were recently dead, looking like

they were villagers living at the foot of the mountain. There were traces of them trying to defend

themselves.

They also found trails of grass and bushes being stepped by someone.

“Woof, woof, woof!”

At this time, the dog that the Mo Family brought suddenly started barking toward the other direction.

“Hmph?” Mo Yu frowned.

“Looks like the person is not far from here. Start the search now!” Mo Yu instructed.

His servants prepared themselves and sped up the search.

“I remember a year ago, I followed Master Mo to the Chen Family, and met Chen Hao there. At that

time, he was just a weak young man! What had he experienced during the past year? He became so

strong! The eight people led by Mo Yunhai were all skilled fighters from the Mo Family. It’s unbelievable

that all of them were killed by Chen Hao alone!” An elderly man beside Mo Yun frowned.

“So what? When he meets the real fighters from the Mo Family, he is nothing compared to them!” Mo

Yu laughed dryly.

“We found him!” someone shouted from the valley in front of them.

Mo Yu walked toward him briskly.

A huge stone blocking the cave was moved away.

At once, one of his servants clutched his neck, and blood oozed out from the wound and covered his

entire body.

In the cave, a lifeless young man lay on the ground with a pale face.

“Chen Hao? We’ve finally got you!” Mo Yu’s frown eased.

He then turned his attention toward his servant. “What happened to him?”

“Young Master Mo, he was assaulted by this fierce dog. This dog is really protective of its owner. I’ll kill

him right now!” another servant explained.

“Woof, woof!”

The dog was leashed by someone, but it was very defensive. All the hair on its body stood as it barked

wildly.

It actually scared off the searching dogs brought by the Mo Family. They took a few steps back, and

some of them even couldn’t control themselves and peed on the spot.

“Hmm, interesting…” Mo Yu saw that and mumbled.

“Don’t kill it first. Take it back to the Mo Family, along with Chen Hao!”

“I thought this brat is very strong and powerful? Why is he half-dead? But it’s good he’s in this condition

—we don’t have to worry about him running away!”

When they lifted Chen Hao out from the cave, the elderly man next to Mo Yun checked his pulse and

found out that Chen Hao’s heart was beating faintly.

It was not a problem to them though, he just questioned it without saying anything else.

“Run away? Do you think he is able to escape when he’s in my hands right now?” Mo Yun eyed the

elderly man coldly.

“You’re right, Young Master!” The elderly man nodded.

When the elderly man lowered his head, he suddenly realized that a flicker of red spark flitted across

Chen Hao’s pale face when he was carried away. The red spark disappeared instantly as soon as it

appeared.
