Translator: Misty Cloud Translations Editor: Misty Cloud Translations
Suddenly, a blood-curdling scream was heard in the darkness of night. Then, while sitting in the corner, she saw two devilry cultivators drag a dying man into an iron cage in the middle of the square.
The man was stabbed in the shoulder and his blood gushed out. He was pressed to the ground by the two devilry cultivators who then cut him in the back of his foot with daggers.
“Ah!”
The shrill cry broke the stillness of the night.
The two devilry cultivators pushed the man into the cage where the beast was kept. Immediately, before everyone’s eyes, the beast tore at the man in the cage followed by the man’s mournful, shrill screams…
The place was dripping with blood. When the b.l.o.o.d.y scene of the man’s vital organs being hollowed out occurred, there was no sound except the gruff breathing of several of the men who saw it.
‘That’s what happens to those who ran away! Watch it and fix it in your mind! When you got here, you won’t get out of our grasps. Or if you can, you can’t get out of this place!”
The devilry cultivator’s voice was thick with warning and reverberated throughout the sky. Everyone heard it loud and clear. Seeing those people’s stiff faces, the two devilry cultivators snorted, turned around and left, leaving only the b.l.o.o.d.y scene in the iron cage where the fierce beast was kept…
As the dawn broke, several devilry cultivators followed Ghost Elder to the centre of the field. Ghost Elder’s cold glance swept over the crowd in the square and his voice rang out.
“Everyone, gather around!”
Everyone stood up immediately at this command, went over to the front and stood still, while the cage dripping in blood in the square had already been moved aside.
Feng Jiu also followed those people. But among the nearly 400 men, she probably looked the thinnest and could not squeeze into the front, so she could only stand at the rear and listen.
“Some of you have been here for three or four months, and some of you have just joined. There are a total of 378 of you, ranging from your teens to your thirties. So, do you know what you were caught here for?”
Ghost Elder’s cold voice reverberated throughout the square. No one spoke, all of them were listening and watching quietly.
“You don’t know? If so, I’ll tell you why!”
His voice suddenly became fierce. He shouted in a slightly deeper voice. “Among the 378 of you, only those who can survive at the end are qualified to be the shadow disciples of our Shadow Night Palace! You are the shadow disciples that will infiltrate the Four Great Sects!”
“Do you wonder why I disclose to you the plan of sending shadow disciples to infiltrate the Four Great Sects? He he.”
Ghost Elder smiled creepily. “That’s because we don’t need many shadow disciples. We will have a round of death elimination. n.o.body can escape from this place. If you don’t want to die, you have to fight. You have to try your best to survive, otherwise, what awaits you will only be an absolutely horrifying way of death.”
“I’m sure you wouldn’t look at the way those who are eliminated die and wish it was you.”
Feng Jiu, who was standing behind the crowd, couldn’t help but scowl. Death elimination? Sending shadow disciples to infiltrate the Four Great Sects? What on earth does this Shadow Night Palace want to do?
While deep in thought, she heard Ghost Elder calling her…
