Chapter 623: The Second Great Purge
Chapter 623: The Second Great Purge
No, I, the young master of the Hu family, am not someone who hasn't seen the world...
But when it comes to blood food, it's usually calculated by the "piece," and even if it's not, it's by the pound. Ten or a hundred pounds is already a huge amount.
You're talking about tens of thousands of pounds as if it's nothing.
But before Hu Ma could finish his thought, he heard Monkey Wine continue, "Also, it's not just the Blood Titan, but we'll also need to prepare more Silk Titans."
"Three to five hundred pounds would be best, and if we can get a few thousand pounds, it would be even more convenient. Besides, I noticed that some things on Yan Family Patriarch seemed rather good, but unfortunately, you killed him."
"But if the Yan family has a way to refine that thing, maybe I can also find a method..."
"..."
"What the..."
Everyone had just thought that this Monkey Wine was too fierce, but now they were left dumbfounded by his words.
Has this guy gone crazy?
'Not only are you after the Blood Titan and Silk Titan, but you're even eyeing the Purple Titan?'
Hu Ma was also stunned by Monkey Wine's words.
However, he was different from the others. They were meeting Monkey Wine for the first time and thought he had gone mad, but Hu Ma already knew this guy was crazy.
Crazy or not, his abilities were no joke.
And although his words sounded frightening, they were likely well-thought-out.
So instead, he paused for a moment, gritting his teeth, "I...I'll think of a way..."
"But you're asking for too much. I can't find that much right away. I'll...I'll give you around ten thousand pounds for now, will that do?"
"..."
Even Hu Ma felt his words were absurd.
Could the words 'ten thousand pounds' and 'make do' be used together? Could such words come out of his mouth?
"Sure."
Monkey Wine replied indifferently, "You should hurry too. I don't want to delay things because of this."
Hu Ma sighed inwardly, "Alright..."
"Damn, what kind of families do these two come from..."
Hearing Hu Ma's agreement, the others burst into an uproar, "One dares to ask, and the other dares to give?"
"No, are there already such wealthy reincarnates among us? Then why did we only get two Blood Nourishing Pills each when we played the role of minor puppet enforcers?"
"No wonder you've reached the level of a great swordswoman. Brother Laobaigan, I won't say more. Do you need an adopted son?"
"..."
"..."
Even Red Wine Miss was stunned by these words, "I was worried that he wouldn't be accepted by the group, but now it seems I was overthinking it?"
"Just this large amount of blood food is enough. Who else could do this?"
"..."
"The pressure is indeed high, and time is tight. But since someone is always taking action, it gives us hope."
Hu Ma sighed and spoke.
He needed to quickly change the topic to avoid feeling sorry for himself.
Just moments ago, he had tens of thousands of pounds of blood food in his hands and was about to harvest more from the blood food mine.
He even had the illusion that there was so much blood food that he didn't want to reclaim the few thousand pounds that Lao Suandan owed him.
Who would've thought that Monkey Wine's request would leave him in such a predicament, feeling like he owed others tens of thousands of pounds?
"As for the struggle for the heavenly mandate, we'll keep pushing forward, laying the foundation to avoid missing any opportunities."
He thought to himself as he spoke, "And the search for the previous generation of reincarnates is also very important. With this assembly, we need to work together."
"Furthermore, although many companions have come to this gathering, time is tight, and there are probably many more who couldn't make it. We also need people to continue searching for them."
"..."
Hearing his words, the voices in the room quieted down, as if everyone was deep in thought.
"I can try to find the previous generation of reincarnates."
In the silence, someone spoke up, the reincarnate from Hui Prefecture, Flower Carving Wine.
His voice carried a hint of contemplation, "I am the Temple Guardian Feng Ling, usually staying out of the secular world. But by following the Temple Guardian, I also have access to some secrets."
"I can't go into details, but perhaps I can find clues about them through a certain channel of the Temple Guardian."
"..."
Hu Ma's heart stirred, and he felt a glimmer of hope from his words.
The Temple Guardian was always the most mysterious existence, and Temple Guardians like Feng Ling were rarely seen in the secular world. Perhaps there really was some unknown method.
"I'll take care of notifying the other reincarnates and even finding those who prefer to stay hidden."
Red Wine Miss also spoke up, "Additionally, we can set up a platform to solve the issue of reincarnates being too far apart and having difficulty communicating."
"Of course, the most important thing is to help reincarnates with their mental preparation, and I can take on that responsibility."
"..."
"I can also assist with the struggle for the heavenly mandate."
At this moment, Stumbling Donkey from Meng Prefecture suddenly spoke up in a low voice, "Perhaps this help will be significant."
Everyone was curious, "Why?"
"Because I've also become a local warlord."
Stumbling Donkey's voice carried a hint of strangeness, "Of course, I don't know how it happened. I was suddenly crowned a king..."
"?"
"Everyone paused for a moment, then laughed, "Why don't you just become the emperor yourself?"
"Damn it, don't try to trick me!"
Stumbling Donkey hastily said, "The information left by the previous reincarnator clearly stated: 'I know that letting you become the emperor will come at a great cost.'"
"I've studied those words many times, think about it, why would he say that?"
"This means that becoming the emperor will be a huge loss. I'm not against experiencing the feeling of having three palaces and six courtyards, but in this sinister world, I won't take the risk. Moreover, even though I've only become a local warlord, seeing those commoners bowing to me, I do have an inexplicable feeling, as if someone is staring at me... I'm almost depressed."
Everyone expressed understanding, as they had all studied the words of the previous reincarnator extensively.
They had already realized some of the hidden issues.
As they discussed, many problems were indeed resolved, but inexplicably, a sense of unease lingered in their hearts.
"These trivial matters are easy to arrange, but the biggest problem is what Brother Monkey Wine mentioned at the beginning."
Eastern State Sweet Wine sighed and said, "Crossing the bridge is a dilemma."
"Not everyone is so bold as to cross the bridge without a care, attracting the attention of the Ten Clans, and even daring to kill. But if we don't cross the bridge, we'll be at a disadvantage when facing the Ten Clans."
"..."
These words silenced the crowd, as it was indeed a practical concern.
Just then, Second Pot Head, who had been silent all this time, slowly spoke up, "I was just about to bring this up."
"Or rather, this isn't something I should say, but Miss White Wine asked me to convey her message."
"Originally, she should have been the representative from Bright State."
"But she said that she had discovered something urgent and had to leave to verify a prescription, so she asked me to bring this issue she found to you!"
Pausing briefly, he continued, "Her message is: The key to the reincarnator crossing the bridge lies in the so-called Immortal Qi..."
"Or rather, the Purple Titan!"
"This thing can conceal the reincarnator's aura, even if they cross the bridge, they won't be discovered."
"..."
"What?"
Everyone was startled upon hearing his words, as they had never heard of such a thing before, and the news was indeed exhilarating.
If the problem of being seen could be avoided, wouldn't the reincarnators be relieved of a major concern?
Who knows how many reincarnators already have the foundation to cross the bridge but dare not take that step?
If this is true, wouldn't there be a large number of reincarnators crossing the bridge in a short time?
"She did say this, but even she hasn't fully understood it herself, so I don't know how to describe it."
Second Pot Head's voice was muffled as he spoke, "I crossed the bridge two months ago and found some Purple Titan, thinking I was lucky. Only now do I realize we got the order wrong."
"Of course, the Purple Titan is indeed incredibly useful. After consuming it, I could sense the changes in my Lifespan Shrine, and I'll record these changes to study with Miss White Wine and share the results with all of you."
"..."
"..."
"Indeed, indeed, it's necessary to go out and explore!"
Everyone listened with great excitement, laughing, "When alone, many problems arise, and we get stuck in our thoughts, only knowing fear."
"Now that we've gathered, we've found that there are many talented reincarnators among us, and many issues have been resolved."
"Everyone, do you have any more exciting news to boost our morale?"
"..."
The atmosphere of the assembly was lively, and indeed, many issues seemed to have a solution.
Hu Ma's mood was slightly shaken as many matters were discussed, and he heaved a low sigh, knowing it was his turn to speak.
This news was too important and shocking. If he had shared it at the beginning, perhaps there would have been no need to discuss other matters, so he waited until now to slowly say, "I have some information to share, but it's not good news."
"..."
"Hmm?"
The others were surprised, focusing their attention on him. The whispered voices filled with joy also quieted down.
Then, Hu Ma slowly spoke, "The second reincarnator purge is about to happen."
"Boom!"
His words caused a momentary silence among the Lifespan Shrines, as if they hadn't reacted yet.
After a few breaths, they suddenly erupted, "What the hell?"
"A second purge? What kind of purge?"
"Who's going to purge us? What can they do?"
"..."
"..."
After a while, Hu Ma spoke softly, "It's the Shadow Crossing Meng Family and the Noble Zhang Family."
"I received news that they are collaborating to create something called a Demon Revealing Mirror, which can expose reincarnators, preventing us from hiding among humans any longer."
