I Don't Want to Get Hurt, So I'll Max Out My Defense Chapter 1199

Chapter 1199: Chapter 1200 Are You Blind? Chapter 1199: Chapter 1200 Are You Blind? “I sensed it, in the core area of the sect, that direction.”

Fu Tiantian emerged from the small wooden box and pointed in a direction.

Li Xiaobai took a look; it was indeed towards the west, right in the core area of the Blood Demon Sect. He'd observe and check the place when dawn comes.

Today's Fifty-Fifty skill has been used up, so he needs to be cautious in his actions. He has no idea what kind of temperament the Blood Demon Sect's Sect Master has and whether he would make a move to test him.

“Kid, Buddha just felt a supremely domineering power, almost catching up to mine. Who was taking action?”

Ergouzi jumped out and paced back and forth in the cave with a face full of suspicion.

“It was me taking action. Just now, I took on two Saint Realm masters alone without falling behind, gaining the trust of the sect's powerhouses. I just need to wait until dawn to head to the Sect Master Hall for my promotion to Elder.”

Li Xiaobai stood with his hands behind his back, looking invincibly lonely.

“Just you?”

Ji Wuqing showed disdain, knowing Li Xiaobai inside out. This guy, at most, was at the peak of the Heavenly Immortal Realm. How could he possibly contend with Saint Realm powerhouses? If they really clashed, it's likely the grass would be growing over his grave in no time.

Blowing up a storm without writing a draft!

“I'll make a trip to the Sect Master Hall at dawn. There should be other Elders going with me. Ergouzi, do something for me.”

“Lean in.”

Li Xiaobai called Ergouzi over and instructed him in a few words.

“Don't worry, Buddha is an expert at this kind of job!”

Ergouzi listened with shining eyes, his face full of excitement, even spinning on the spot before hopping into the wooden box voluntarily.

Ji Wuqing, watching this, couldn't help but become antsy, “What are you talking about? Come on, tell your lord Ji Wuqing!”

“Did I ask you to come out? Get back in!”

Li Xiaobai, with a swift hand, stuffed Ji Wuqing back into the wooden box without saying another word.

Time to organize the System Attribute Points panel.

In the two encounters before and after the activation of Fifty-Fifty, the total increase in attribute points was three billion.

[Host: Li Xiaobai.]
[…]
[Defensive Power: Heavenly Immortal Realm (63 billion/100 billion) (Ten Thousand Years Cold Immortal Plant: Obtained.) (Blood Sun Heavenly Egg: Not yet obtained) Eligible for advancement.]
He still needs a Blood Sun Heavenly Egg. He'll ask the Blood Fiend Elder later. As a Saint Realm powerhouse, he should know a lot about such Heaven and Earth Treasures.

A few hours later.

Daybreak arrived, and Li Xiaobai was awakened by a knock on the door.

“Shaven-headed brother, did you rest well? Is the cave dwelling to your liking?”

Blood Fiend Elder stood at the door, chuckling.

“The cave dwelling is quite comfortable.”

“Has Blood Fiend brother come to take me to the Sect Master Hall?”

Li Xiaobai opened the door, looking with a beaming smile at the Blood Fiend before him.

“Indeed, it's nearing the hour. Various Elders are gathering in the Sect Master Hall awaiting assignments. I must also report to the Sect Master the results of this recruitment of disciples. This is the perfect opportunity to introduce shaven-headed brother to him.”

Blood Fiend Elder said with a light laugh.

“That would be very good, thank you for leading the way, Blood Fiend Elder.”

Li Xiaobai nodded and sauntered out of his dwelling.

“Shaven-headed brother, perhaps it would be better to put on some clothes?”

Blood Fiend Elder glanced at Li Xiaobai's bare upper body with a hint of hesitation, as it would be disrespectful to meet the Sect Master in an untidy state.

Li Xiaobai casually said, “I am wearing clothes.”

Blood Fiend: “Where are they?”

“This is the Emperor's new clothes, visible only to the intelligent!”

The Sect Master Hall and Li Xiaobai's cave dwelling were on the same mountain, just one high and one low, indeed not far from each other.

A golden chariot appeared beneath his feet, following the Blood Fiend and ascending straight up. In the sky, one could see many giant ancient ships crossing the void, slowly progressing towards the mountaintop.

“Duang!”

A distant bell sounded above the mountaintop, ancient and long-standing, expressing the breath of time, one chime after another, resonating and echoing incessantly.

“This is the summoning bell for the Sect Elders. Recently there have been many changes within the sect, so it rings more frequently. On normal days, this bell only rings once a month.”

Blood Fiend Elder explained to Li Xiaobai.

Li Xiaobai nodded in understanding. After all, the Blood Demon Sect had mysteriously lost a Saint Heir and opened their gates widely for recruitment, plus the sneaky abduction of a baby — indeed, it could be considered a troubled autumn.

“All these are sect's Elders, ranging from Saint Realm to Semi-Saint, most are just there to accompany and listen, and there are only a few who truly have a say and can get a word in.”

Blood Fiend Elder seemed very proud, clearly among the few who had a say.

“Then, thank you in advance, Brother Blood Fiend, for speaking well on my behalf.”

Li Xiaobai cupped his hands in a greeting, chuckling. Obviously, he understood the other's thoughts — just from the attitude of Hehuan's Sect, it was clear that the Saint Realm powerhouses of the Blood Demon Sect were also fighting their own battles. Blood Fiend's friendliness meant he wanted to ally and form a larger power with him.

“Of course, it is what it is.”

As they laughed and talked their way to the summit, they entered the Sect Master Hall. As the two passed, various Elders stepped aside, allowing Li Xiaobai to also enjoy a moment of influence by association. Though the exact number of the sect's Saint Realm powerhouses was a mystery, by sheer numbers, Semi-Saints made up ninety-nine percent. Saint Realm cultivators commanded respect, occupying top status in the entire Central Origin Realm, awe-inspiring indeed.

In the crowd, Li Xiaobai saw Elder Chen and Meng Qi by his side, obviously also there to report on the results of disciple recruitment.

“Those in disarray shall not enter, Blood Fiend Elder. Your Blood Demon branch has become more and more unrestrained, daring to let such unkept individuals enter the Sect Master Hall, utterly disgraceful and disrespectful. Do you even consider the Sect Master in your actions?”

A woman's reprimanding voice came from behind; it was none other than the fox-masked Hehuan cultivator from Hehuan's Sect.

“Hehuan sister, I've brought such combat strength to the sect, surely it's a fortune for the sect. Since when is it your turn to nitpick here?”

“Your Hehuan's Sect has repeatedly insulted my shaven-headed brother, attempting to obstruct his joining the Blood Demon Sect. What are your true intentions? Do you wish to reduce the combat power of our sect?”

After a few hours of rest and recovery, Blood Fiend Elder had already prepared a full set of countermeasures. He was not intimidated facing this fox-masked woman again, hitting back hard.

“That's right, and besides, which of your eyes saw me disheveled?”

“I don't have any clothes on at all, so how can I be disheveled? Are you blind?”

Li Xiaobai also talked back aggressively, ready to join forces with the Blood Fiend Elder against the adversary, leaving the masked woman trembling with anger.
