Little Demon Reversion to Youth

Chapter 81

A Martial Alliance Elder can intervene in all matters that occur in the martial world.

Major decisions are made by the Alliance Leader, but the Alliance's administration and minor disputes between martial sects are all handled at the Elder's meeting.

Therefore, the sects strive to produce a Martial Alliance Elder.

Sects that have not produced an elder openly offer bribes to secure a line that will represent them.

The amount was said to be beyond imagination.

The Tang family, as a member of the Five Great Families, naturally has a share in producing an elder. However, Tang Qianhui was a timid man who could not even take care of the Tang family's rightful share.

'I can't be a timid man too.'

"Hahaha. I need to go and wash my hands for a moment."

The elder came to his residence and took out the ten-thousand-tael promissory note that he had carefully put away. His heart ached, but he couldn't help it.

Returning and sitting down, the elder composed his expression and said, "This old man has always respected the Alliance Leader. I saw him just once from a distance, and he was truly a man beyond the heavens! A man like a heavenly god."

"Umm... he is really old. Ninety years old... he would look like an immortal. But eating and shitting are all the same. Don't think too hard about it among the same people."

'Does this brat have no respect for his master?'

The elder pretended not to know and continued to speak.

"Since I am far away in Sichuan, it was difficult to express my respect. Since you have come, I would like you to convey it on my behalf."

He stealthily held out an envelope containing ten thousand taels.

Baekji opened the envelope, took out the promissory note, and checked it.

'Does this brat not even know the way of bribery?'

A bribe is something that is given and received secretly, with both the giver and the receiver pretending not to know.

To open it right in front of the person.

"It's ten thousand taels. Good, good."

Baekji was pleased and put it in his money pouch. The elder was flustered and said, "That is... for the Alliance Leader..."

"Hey. Do you think the Martial Alliance Leader would accept such a paltry sum?"

"Keung."

Ten thousand taels is a paltry sum?

A large sum of money that three generations could eat and play with...

How much has the young brat eaten in the meantime...

No... is the unit of bribery in the Martial Alliance different?

Then I too... if I just become an elder...

The elder's heart swelled.

"I will be sure to tell him about the elder's sincerity when I have a chance."

Since he was planning to meet the Martial Alliance Leader.

If there was no chance, then so be it.

"Keuheum. If that's the case."

The elder let out a cough as if he couldn't help it.

"So, about this elder selection..."

Just then, the Second Shadow's telepathic message hit Baekji's ear.

―Tang Tian'e has made a move.

'He's a stupid brat after all. To do something that will be found out right away.'

Baekji stood up from his seat.

"Why are you leaving already? The alcohol hasn't even cooled..."

The elder, who was about to get a firm promise for the elder recommendation, was flustered.

Baekji waved his hand and said, "I've given what I had to give and received what I had to receive, so it's done, right? It's late at night, so I have to sleep. I won't forget the affection we shared in this place."

He was a really shameless brat. He took the bribe and then stood up right away.

Suddenly, a suspicion arose.

'This bastard, is he really the Alliance Leader's disciple? Isn't he a swindler?'

Is he trying to run away right after receiving the bribe?

The elder shook his head.

If he said no now... it would be terrible.

Since that brat's martial arts were so formidable, he couldn't take it back.

He couldn't catch him, so he said in a whining voice, "Speak well to your master."

He had thrown a do-or-die gamble and was carefully observing Baekji's expression.

If a single sign of falsehood appeared, he would attack with all his might.

The elder was a person who could bet his life on ten thousand taels.

Baekji readily nodded his head.

"Huh? I'll do that. My master listens to everything I say."

Although he didn't know if Yang Soryeong would want to hear about the elder of the council of elders of the Tang family.

At Baekji's very confident attitude, the elder was inwardly relieved.

'Since the disciple is young, the Alliance Leader must dote on him like a grandson.'

Then it was understandable that this brat was so arrogant and acted as he pleased.

"Go carefully."

The elder even saw him off.

* * *

In the darkness, the Blood Fiend's voice was heard.

"The Poison King found out about the 'life and death grass'...?"

"It was fortunate that I happened to have heard about the blood poison and knew about it. The Poison King found out that the main ingredient of the blood poison is the 'life and death grass' and that the root of the 'dragon's beard tree' can counteract it. That's why I moved up the date of the great undertaking."

"Umm."

A groan flowed in the darkness, and then a moment later, a gloomy voice was heard.

"Since you have violated the grand plan of the 'Blood Heaven's Descent', I will report it to the Cult Leader. However, I will also say that there were urgent circumstances. But this kind of thing is enough once. Remember that the affairs of the cult must proceed without a single deviation."

'Blood Heaven's Descent'.

Tang Tian'e only knew that it was a grand plan for the Blood Sect's world. According to it, he should have eliminated Tang Qianhui only after six months.

The Blood Fiend had come to reprimand Tang Tian'e for suddenly executing the plan to overthrow the Tang family.

'Now or six months later... what's the difference?'

Tang Tian'e could not understand why the Blood Sect was moving so cautiously.

As far as he knew, the Blood Sect's power was so formidable that it could overthrow the Central Plains in an instant.

However, he did not dare to ask the reason.

"Due to your sudden great undertaking, our cult has been revealed, so the Demonic Cult and the Martial Alliance will flock here. You must surely eliminate Tang Qianhui and his family so that there will be no room for future problems."

"Do not worry about that. The great undertaking has been perfectly completed. The Tang family's pursuit will soon fizzle out."

Tang Tian'e was confident.

"Remember. Until the key positions of the Tang family are completely filled with the personnel of the Blood Sect, you must act with caution and wait for the right time. Understood?"

"I understand."

The Blood Fiend's figure disappeared with a rustle.

No matter how you looked at it, it was a ghostly stealth technique.

Tang Tian'e, who was left alone, felt somehow uneasy.

'Surely eliminate the Tang Qianhui family...'

The Blood Fiend did not forgive his orders not being followed for any reason.

If he had failed to overthrow the Tang family, he would have died.

'What should I do with Tang Yunlong...'

Tang Tian'e had received a report that Go Hyeonggi and Nangong Zhao were thoroughly searching the young family head's quarters.

He was already uneasy, but after meeting the Blood Fiend, he became more anxious.

'Umm. Do these brats know something?'

The secret space where Tang Yunlong was hidden was something he had made when he was the young family head in the past. Since he had made it very secretly to abduct women and have fun, no one knew about it.

Even Tang Yunlong, who had stayed in the Twin Wing Hall for a long time, did not know about the space.

But Go Hyeonggi and Nangong Zhao were not easy brats. In particular, the fact that Nangong Zhao was the chief investigator of the military affairs department was subtly bothering him.

To have risen to the position of chief investigator at a young age must have been because his ability was outstanding.

'Hmph! He must have risen by relying on the background of the Nangong family.'

Although he had forced himself to belittle him, he could not help but feel anxious.

'Should I have just killed him?'

But Tang Yunlong's young and fresh body was too tempting to give up. Although he had suffered to regain the position of family head, his youthful days had already passed.

A young and handsome family head of the Tang family.

Countless women would follow him. Tang Tian'e, whose lecherous nature was so strong, could never give up.

'For now, I have to move him.'

If he was discovered while being kept in the secret space, things would become difficult.

That night.

Tang Tian'e entered the secret passage from the family head's hall.

After the incident that night, all the secret passages except for the family head's hall had been closed.

Tang Tian'e, relying on a small lantern, headed for the Twin Wing Hall's secret passage.

The secret space was hidden below, right after coming out of the secret passage behind Tang Yunlong's bedroom.

Tang Tian'e opened the mechanism of the Twin Wing Hall's secret passage.

Tang Yunlong's bedroom was very dark.

Tang Tian'e spread his ki and examined his surroundings. Since the young family head was not there, there were no warriors guarding the Twin Wing Hall.

They had all been dispatched to search for the Blood Sect.

When Tang Tian'e's hand brushed against the wall, the side door leading to the secret space opened.

Tang Yunlong was lying in the secret space, unconscious.

'Hehehe.'

Tang Tian'e stroked Tang Yunlong's handsome face, which looked as if it had been carved from white jade, and then slung him over his shoulder.

As he was coming out of the secret space, a familiar voice was heard from the darkness.

"Umm. As expected, the new family head is clever. To have found the young family head at once."

Tang Tian'e, as if he had become a stone statue, stared into the darkness.

Baekji, holding a bamboo staff, revealed himself.

"Burp... but did I eat too much? Buuurp..."

As he burped, the smell of alcohol rushed out.

'This brat?'

The absolute master who was said to be the Alliance Leader's disciple?

Tang Tian'e reflexively struck with a palm.

Bang!

"Ugh! To be so cowardly as to attack while I'm burping!"

Although Baekji raised his hand to block, he was swept away by the force and rolled backwards.

Tang Tian'e's eyes flashed in the darkness.

'This brat? He's not an absolute master!'

To be sent flying, unable to handle even a single palm strike that he had reflexively thrown.

'The elder was deceived. Then again... for such a brat to be an absolute master. The elder is also pathetic.'

Tang Tian'e regained his composure. He threw the Tang Yunlong on his shoulder into the secret passage and turned his body.

"You brat, I wanted to crush that mouth of yours anyway. I will crush the jaw that babbles without recognizing people. Kehehe."

A cunning expression covered his dignified face.

* * *

'He's out! Strange. It's too quiet. What happened?'

The Blood Fiend, who had been in the family head's hall, quietly came out.

Jian Yi's head was spinning.

'He said an assassin had entered, right? Was he lying seriously injured and then died without even a squeak from the Blood Fiend's poison?'

'No. The guards would have been attached, right? But would the guard brats be a match for the Blood Fiend's single move?'

'It's a pity. For the Poison King to have been defeated... should I have stepped forward? No, from their point of view, the Blood Sect and our cult are the same, so I would have been attacked instead... let's just chase that brat.'

If the Poison King was already dead, it couldn't be helped.

Jian Yi, seeing the distant Blood Fiend, flew.

'Ah! Divine General!'

A sense of dizziness flashed through Hongyan's eyes.

To have tapped her acupoints and left alone.

―I will come back and release you...

'Ah, I'm going crazy...'

Because of the masters who only thought of themselves, her head was about to explode.

What was she supposed to do if he left her on the roof of the Tang family?

When the day broke, someone would see her.

* * *

"Umm. Have you revealed your true nature?"

Baekji brushed off his clothes and stood up.

"It's your fraud that has been revealed. The Alliance Leader's disciple! Kehehe... what a ridiculous trick... with what intention did you enter our family and commit fraud?"

Tang Tian'e secretly raised his internal energy.

Even if he was not an absolute master, since he had blocked his own palm strike, his martial arts must be considerable.

If people flocked here, he would be the one in trouble.

A quick battle!

He had to finish him off as quickly as possible and disappear through the secret passage.

With the intention of inducing carelessness and then subduing him right away, he spoke and distracted Baekji's attention.

Baekji scratched his head with a troubled expression and answered, "Oh dear... have I been found out? Then the answer is to kill and silence..."

"Hehehe. You can deceive a ghost, but you can't deceive my eyes...!"

As Tang Tian'e was speaking, he suddenly flew and tried to grab both of Baekji's arms.

"Ugh!"

When Baekji was surprised and stepped back, Tang Tian'e suddenly crossed his arms, with his right hand aiming for the Adam's apple and his left hand aiming to tear at the groin.

It was the killing move of the 'Thousand Poisons Hand', the 'Heaven and Earth Twin Snakes'. Originally, it was to tear at the lower dantian, but Tang Tian'e went lower and aimed for the groin.

"Aack! That's too much! To try to make me a eunuch... you lecherous brat! Are you planning to make others cripples and monopolize all the women in the world?"

Baekji made a fuss and stepped back.
