I Don't Want to Get Hurt, So I'll Max Out My Defense Chapter 1198

Chapter 1198: Chapter 1199: Divine Might at 55% Power Chapter 1198: Chapter 1199: Divine Might at 55% Power “Hehe, Blood Fiend Elder, no need to be polite, we're all family here, no need for such formality, missy, don't be so arrogant. We've got two people on our side–you can still cling to our thighs now if you want. Otherwise, once I become an Elder of the Blood Demon Sect tomorrow, you'll immediately find it's not easy with me around!”

Li Xiaobai stood shoulder-to-shoulder with the Blood Fiend Elder, infuriating the woman with the mask until her hands trembled visibly.

During this stalemate, the Fifty-Fifty skill on his System panel was unlocked and activated, recharged and ready to be used once again.

“Then let me test the power of a future Elder of the Blood Demon Sect!”

The woman's fox mask seemed to come to life, emitting a piercing howl as the space around them changed, turning into a mirage. Countless slender arms latched onto Li Xiaobai's body, as if trying to drag him underground.

This was Domain Power again, these arms weren't illusions but were manifestations condensed through Cultivation Techniques. They coiled around Li Xiaobai's arms, pulling him down as the ground beneath him turned extraordinarily muddy, attempting to sink him.

In the void, a blood-red light flickered.

“Sin Value: 150 million!”

This woman's Sin Value was 20 million more than the Blood Fiend Elder's, and the number of cultivators who died by her hand was not few.

“This should barely count as a hand, how about a slap?”

“Fifty-Fifty, activate!”

Li Xiaobai bellowed, the Fifty-Fifty skill kicking in, causing the mirage around him to shatter. The slender arms binding him disintegrated into a cloud of dispersing stardust. His opponent's Domain was torn apart in that instant, and the power of Fifty-Fifty vanished just as quickly.

[Attribute Points+70 Million…]
Clearly, the opponent wasn't going all out, at least not as earnest as the Blood Fiend Elder had been, but the number of points gained was still substantial.

“You…”
“You shattered my Domain!”

Upon the throne, the expressions in the eyes of the masked woman were full of shock and disbelief. Even those of the same rank could not achieve this; a Domain that had been with her since the Half-Saint Realm, torn asunder so easily and with such precise control that not a bit of excess energy swept over.

Such incredible control naturally demonstrated his true skill.

This bald man was not all talk; he was truly a top-notch expert!

“Small fries, why panic? I was merely going easy on you just now, you should be unharmed.”

“Since we'll all be from the same sect in the future, we shouldn't ruin the harmony between us. For accidentally injuring your Sect Disciples, I will make it up to you another day.”

Li Xiaobai clasped his fists and spoke solemnly.

“Very well, I'll be waiting for you!”

“See you tomorrow at the Sect Master Hall. Let's go!”

The masked woman's eyes still glinted with ferocity, casting a meaningful glance at the blood-red number above Li Xiaobai's head and licked her tender lips before drifting away. With a Sin Value of 110 million, this person was no ordinary individual. She would look into his background before making further plans!

“Blood Fiend bro, shall we leave too?”

Li Xiaobai turned to the Blood Fiend Elder with a smile. Up close, he could see the man's true face beneath the loose blood-red robe. He was middle-aged and well-built but not the same Masked Fighter mentioned by the Sword Sect; they were not the same person.

“After you!”

The Blood Fiend Elder did not say much and led Li Xiaobai away.

Behind them, Elder Chen was still immersed in the shock of what she had witnessed–a brief confrontation between three Saint Realm powerhouses! Too frightening, it was the first time in her life!

“Elder Chen, my assessment…”
Meng Qi pulled herself back from her thoughts and asked.

“Do I even need to say it? Surviving the aftermath of the clash between three Saint Realm mighties, you've passed the test impressively. From now on, you are an Inner Sect Disciple. Tomorrow, I will apply for the position of Saint Heir for you; I hope you'll perform well!”

Elder Chen gave her an immediate pass without hesitation. After so many cultivators, only Meng Qi had survived. Such a treasure of a girl must be well nurtured by the sect, surely she had great potential!

Meng Qi's heart lifted with joy: “Thank you, Elder Chen!”

…
On the other hand, Li Xiaobai was led by the Blood Demon to stay in a temporary abode near the Sect Master Hall. Tomorrow, upon officially becoming an Elder of the Blood Demon Sect, he would be able to choose his own mountain peak, which should be no problem with the Blood Fiend Elder's recommendation.

“Bald brother, why do you wish to join the Blood Demon Sect?”

On the way, the Blood Fiend Elder inquired about Li Xiaobai's background.

“Obviously, because the Blood Demon Sect is strong. Only the strong attract the strong. A person of my caliber, unbeaten under the heavens, is very keen to witness what the Blood Demon Sect, with its thousand-year heritage, is really like.”

Li Xiaobai answered nonchalantly, paying attention to the location of the cave. It seemed not to be situated in the core area and was not close to where the baby he was looking for was located.

“Bald brother, what is in the box that you carry?”

The Blood Fiend Elder asked curiously, having had an eye on the box for a long while. As a cultivator, there's no need to carry boxes around–one could simply store any treasures or wealth in their Dantian. Li Xiaobai's style was quite unique.

“I have a hobby of collecting corpses; after killing someone, I keep some parts of their body, nothing worth showing off.”

Li Xiaobai waved his hands dismissively, blathering.

“Hmm, bald brother also has his hobbies; this is something we have in common.”

The Blood Fiend nodded. In the Demon Path, it was not unusual to have some peculiar hobbies.

“The Blood Fiend Elder likes corpses too?”

Li Xiaobai asked.

“No, I'm afflicted with Copper Refining Mania; I get restless without refining copper every day. I'll send you some, and it's guaranteed to be solid.”

The Blood Fiend Elder laughed darkly.

“Hehe, I'm afraid I can't endure such hobbies, brother Blood Fiend. Just put in a few good words for me in front of the Sect Master tomorrow.”

Li Xiaobai hurriedly said. He was just spouting nonsense, but it turned out that he accidentally coaxed out the truth from the other party.

Copper Refining Mania?

Strange enough. What's there to refine with copper? It can't transform into Magic Treasure and isn't valuable.

If it can't be turned into money, it's not a good treasure.

“Of course, it's a good thing for a man like bald elder to join our Blood Demon Sect. I've got the face for that. I'll speak to the Sect Master about it tomorrow. Moving forward, we're all one family…”

After some brief pleasantries, the Blood Fiend Elder left, always probing but unfortunately learning nothing in the end.

After he left, Li Xiaobai set down the box and opened the cabinet door.

“My good disciple, have you sensed the whereabouts of the baby?”
