Fade had killed almost one hundred witchcraft practitioners a moment ago. Their corpses and blood were scattered all over the stone castle.

The rich aura of blood accompanied by fear, doubtfulness, and anger of the people filled the entire stone castle, causing it to be gloomy and terrifying. At that moment, Blood Lord's expression was ghastly.

It was because the witchcraft practitioners from the other branches were all glowering at him with murderous intent.

They smouldered with resentment and hatred for betrayal.

Even some members of the Blood Witch Sect stared at Blood Lord with complicated emotions in their gazes.

If it had not been for the hierarchs of the major branch sects had been killed by Fade a moment ago.

Blood Lord might have been beaten to death by those angry practitioners.

Even so, he could barely deter them at that moment.

If such a situation continued, Blood Lord couldn't guarantee that he would be able to walk out of the stone castle alive.

"The situation of the battle on Master Chen's side is still unclear."

"No, I have to save myself. I have to find a way to get out of here."

Blood Lord knew that he couldn't stay any longer and was about to leave.

However, as soon as he took a few steps forward with his trusted subordinates, they were immediately surrounded. "Blood Lord, you betrayed the Witch Lord! You betrayed the Witchcraft Clan!"

"You d*mn traitor, do you want to escape?"

"Blood Lord, we need an explanation for what happened just now."

In the face of more and more practitioners besieging them, Blood Lord's expression turned even more unpleasant.

He couldn't explain anything about the betrayal at all.

Right then, it seemed that the only option was to fight his way out.

However, he had been injured. He was not confident that he could escape from the encirclement of so many people.

Just as Blood Lord was deep in thought, others began to heckle him once again.

"Blood Lord, since you have no response, does it mean that you fail to explain?"

"He's a traitor. What's there to say about it? Kill him!"

"Kneel down!"

The situation was on the verge of breaking out of a battle. Blood Lord gritted his teeth and threw a sharp gaze. He was ready to fight his way out. However, just then, a shrill whistle pierced through the sky.

Then, with a loud bang, the top of the stone castle was smashed, leaving a big hole.

Sunlight shone in from the hole, forming a circle of light on the stage.

A proud figure stood in the middle of the halo with his hands behind his back.

That person was none other than Fade.

Upon seeing his return, Blood Lord was instantly overjoyed. He rushed towards Fade in a flurry, "Master Chen, you, you're back."

The other practitioners were all startled. They couldn't help taking a few steps backwards, afraid that they would be killed by Fade.

He glanced at Blood Lord, then swept his gaze across all the practitioners, whose faces were full of hatred. He immediately understood what was going on.

He said nothing else and took out a black token, throwing it on the ground with a clang.

"The Witch Lord is dead!"

In an instant, the whole scene burst into an uproar.

"It's impossible for the Witch Lord to die!"

"The Witch Lord is so powerful! He couldn't have died. He must be lying."

"Liar, he's a liar. It's impossible for the Witch Lord to die."

"But... The token is the Witch Lord's personal keepsake!"

"The Witch Lord fled just now. Perhaps, h-he really was defeated."

Fade did not give them time to continue their discussion. He spoke up to drown out the noise.

"From now on, the Witchcraft Clan will be under my control. Are you willing to accept it?"

A dead silence fell over on the scene.

Several hierarchs of branch sects glowered at Fade furiously, their eyes brimming with unwillingness. "What right do you have..."

"I don't..."

Without waiting for them to finish their words, Fade made his move.

"Slap, slap, slap!"

After a succession of slaps, the heads of those hierarchs burst like watermelons in an instant.

"Now, is there anyone who isn't convinced?"

Fade's cold voice echoed throughout the stone castle.

This time, there was no sound of objection.

Seeing that, Fade nodded lightly. He then turned to look at Blood Lord, "When I'm not here, you'll be in charge of all the affairs of the Witchcraft Clan."

"Huh?" Blood Lord was stunned for a

moment, and then he was pleasantly delighted. He knelt down and

thanked Eade, "Thank you, Master Chen, I definitely be loyal to you. I'll help you in managing the Witchcraft Clan, and I'll never disobey you even if it costs me my life."

"What about you guys?"

Fade's gaze swept across the crowd and fell on the witchcraft practitioners.

"We agree!"

All the practitioners knelt down and spoke in unison.

"Great!"

Fade nodded and dismissed the crowd.

On the side, Blood Lord had a respectful smile plastered on his face as he brought Caesar and Jason to Fade politely.

"Master Chen, the two you're looking for are here."

Fade nodded and told him to leave. Then, he invited Caesar and Jason to take a seat.

The two of them were startled by the series of bizarre experiences and had not recovered from being in a daze.

Fade comforted the two of them and infused some positive energy into them to restore their senses.

Then, he explained everything to them so that they could feel at ease.

After appeasing them, he called Blood Lord over. He issued some rules and orders for him in managing the Witchcraft Clan.

Of course, Blood Lord agreed with all the orders.

Fade did not care about whether he was sincere or not. After all, his life was in Fade's hands.

If he could manage the Witchcraft Clan properly, Fade would naturally not make things difficult for him. If he dared to betray him, Fade would directly kill him by then. Blood Lord jotted down Fade's orders and left in a polite manner.

However, before he left, he seemed to have thought of something and told Fade, "Master Chen, the Witch Lord, no, mean the former leader of the Witchcraft Clan has four children. who are still alive. They're protected by powerful guards."

"Especially the youngest daughter, whom the former Witch Lord valued the most. He has arranged eight Heaven Level guards to stay by her side."

"If we leave them alone, I'm afraid that... Why don't we get rid of them?!"

With that, Blood Lord made a throat-cutting gesture, and there was ferocity in his eyes.

When Fade saw that, he couldn't help narrowing his eyes. He became a bit more vigilant against Blood Lord.

Although that guy behaved

del

respectfully in front of him, he couldn't forget the fact that Blood, Lord was, after all, the hierarch of the Blood Witch Sect. He had carried

out a lot of harmful things in the past.

QUMS

The proposal of getting rid of the family members of the former leader of the Witchcraft Clan exposed his ruthlessness.

Seeing that Fade did not respond, Blood Lord uttered, "Master Chen..."

Fade replied coldly, "As for the family members, as long as they don't provoke me, we don't have to bother them."

"But..." Blood Lord wanted to interject, but when he met Fade's cold eyes, he swallowed back the words on the tip of his tongue and nodded, "Alright, I'll definitely follow the order."

"You can leave now!"

"Yes, Master Chen!"
