The old monster who had once burned down Mount Zhongnan. The Valley Master of Burning Poison Valley. He had been watching everything from this place.
And two more people stood beside him. The Valley Master of Black Insect Valley, Gu Seok. He was the one controlling the insects he had summoned all at once this time.
And— Yaoji, the Sect Leader of the Wushan Divine Maiden Sect.
‘Hasn’t she been beside the Lord of the Unorthodox Faction ever since the war between the Orthodox and Unorthodox began? I didn’t expect her to come here in person.’
Thinking that, the Valley Master of Burning Poison Valley spoke.
“They say the gu rituals and insect poisons of Black Insect Valley are terrifying... I see. You’ve truly achieved enlightenment.”
Gu Seok looked proudly at the insects he had released and smiled.
“How could they compare to the poison of Burning Poison Valley? Still, I’m grateful that you think so highly of us. More importantly, I didn’t know that the Wushan Divine Maiden Sect had such deep knowledge of the art of creating Jiangshi.”
“It isn’t something that belongs to our sect. As you know, we received support from that side.”
The Valley Master of Burning Poison Valley spoke.
“Hmm. You mean the ‘Red Side.’”
“Yes. The ‘Black Side’ has been using fewer Jiangshi than before lately.”
The Black Side. The Demonic Cult. The Red Side.
