Chapter 604 The name to not be spoken

"I am not sure... does Senior have any errands for this Junior to run...?", the man called Gui Jianyu, tired of being here without knowing why while witnessing this spectacle, clasped his hands in front of his chest in a subservient manner, slightly rubbing them together.

"Ah, mmn mmn, no, mmn mm *gulp*, I just called you to see how fast you will come", the young man on the sofa chuckled munching on the grape.

"... Haha... of course I arrived as soon as I could...", Gui Jianyu first froze, and then made a bright smile that almost closed his eyes, hiding the look in them.

"Hahaha, kidding, I'm kidding. Don't make that face", Linghun Mo chuckled, rising up to sit, grabbing and fondling Gui Xiaolan's curves, eliciting a sensual moan from the latter, as he looked at her Father with a grin, "I called you because there have been some news"

"From the Azure Eagle Continent?", Gui Jianyu's voice became reinvigorated as interest flashed in his eyes.

"Not exactly. That alchemist is being shady for some reason, I haven't received news ever since the continent went into shutdown, nothing directly from him either. Though if he went back on our agreement I will make sure he pays for it", anger could be glimpsed for a moment in the Blood Demon's eyes as he narrowed them.

"Ahn~! Lord Mo~ you're hurting me~", Gui Xiaolan spoke in a high tone with rebuke a he relaxed, smiling while turning to her.

"My bad", he whispered leaning over to her.

"Then...", Gui Jianyu asked with a bit of confusion.

"From the Empire", busy with the woman in his arms, Linghun Mo did not turn at his guest while speaking, "It seems that little bird has fled her cage, so the Nie Family has contacted me. I thought I'd let you know since you have been so focused on her..."

Gui Jianyu's eyes revealed a glint of excitement after hearing the news, all hints of displeasure disappearing from his demeanor.

"Thank you! Senior! Thank you so much for your magnanimity and generosity!", he deeply bowed as Linghun Mo smiled.

"Hahaha, you better remember that feeling and words for when we break out of this cage and ascend. I looked after you because you are the descendant of that Gui Clan, after all" the Blood Demon made a remark finally turning his gaze away from the woman.

Which did not sit well with her, as she made a sulking face, and a dejected sound "Uuu... what about me?"

"Haa~... I know, I know. I promise you, one day I will slay that Slaughter God for you, my love. And then you will not have to fear anymore", Linghun Mo sighed with lament, pained to see her in this mood, and proclaimed with an affectionate gaze as her face turned to a smile, tracing the side of his face with her fingers.

"Ah~! Lord Mo~! You are incredible" Her happy voice reaching his ears made him drunk as he leaned over again.

"Haa~", Gui Jianyu sighed, inwardly rolling his eyes at the words of this man, lost, body and soul altogether in the embrace of his daughter, turning his gaze to the side, the scenery of the prairies visible only from the top of the pagoda coming into his view, as the sun was already hovering on the horizon in the west, the crimson glow of the dusk looking somehow particularly sinister and eerie on this day.

Suddenly, he noticed something, as if a bleak or reflection of sunlight appeared in the clear air for a moment and disappearing. He squinted, and not noticing anything, a ripple of his spiritual sense spread as the two sitting before him turned to him with widened eyes.

"What is it?", Linghun Mo asked with raised eyebrow.

"Nothing, I just thought-...", Gui Jianyu shook his head not sensing anything out of order, until...

*Grrrrr!!!*

A tremor started shaking the entire mountain range, and pillars of light were rising into the air around it, a giant glowing pattern appearing in the skies above.

"...?!"

"What the...?"

"What is happening?"

The three people, as well as all members of the Blood Demon Cult were looking around them, trying to figure out what exactly was going on.

"...! This is!!!", Gui Xiaolan then widened her eyes as a feeling spread across the territory.

"Aura Suppression Field! No doubt about it!", Linghun Mo spoke with wide eyes, looking up.

"But who?", Gui Jianyu asked with bewilderment as walls of light started rising between the pillars, enclosing the whole territory in the cylindrical shape of the Formation.
