Beast Taming: I gained the talent of a spirit pet.

Chapter 535 Blood Crying Immortal!
"Tell me, you must have something important to say by contacting me so abruptly."

A voice, neither male nor female, came from the mysterious figure in the iron basin. The voice was deep and echoed in Lu Xue's ears.

“This disciple has indeed made some discoveries these days. Some time ago, Xiu Daozhen brought Zheng Xingkong, the sixth son of the Hun Tian Elder, to Xiao Tieyun Island. They haven’t shown their faces for half a month. I guess they came for that item.”

Lu Xue said in a deep voice.

"Oh? Zheng Xingkong went too?"

Upon hearing this, Blood Cry Master seemed surprised, but his voice remained calm: "On the surface, this person is the most beloved son of the Old Man of Hun Tian, ​​but in reality, few people know that Zheng Xingkong was born with a special physique. He has a soul but no spirit, and is a naturally superior body, most suitable for being refined into an avatar."

"So, Zheng Xingkong has actually become an avatar of that old man Hun Tian all along. It seems... that old bastard Hun Tian has also become interested in that thing..."

Upon hearing this, Lu Xue's expression immediately changed...

She never expected that Zheng Xingkong, a famous Yin God giant, who was favored by the Old Man of Hun Tian and was also the Old Man of Hun Tian's most outstanding son, would actually be the Old Man of Hun Tian's clone!
"What does the elder require of his disciple next?"

Lu Xue thought for a moment and then asked.

She knew perfectly well that the reason she was assigned to Xiaotieyun Island to become the steward of Xiu Daozhen's grandson, Xiu Yanqing, was because of something in Xiu Daozhen's possession.

Blood Cry Master was silent for a moment, then said, "You need to investigate this matter. It would be best to use Xiu Yanqing to find out whether that item is in Xiu Daozhen's possession, or to find out its whereabouts. For this, you are willing to pay any price! Do you understand what I mean?"

Lu Xue's heart skipped a beat, and she quickly replied, "Yes, disciple understands!"

That's what she said, but she knew perfectly well that what she meant by "at all costs" and "at any price" was that she should risk her own life and her identity, which she had been faking and hiding for more than 20 years, and use any means necessary to get that thing!
Although she was unwilling, she had no other choice. In the demonic path, the law of the jungle prevails, and those in power often have many ways to control those in power.

Lu Xue's family is now in the hands of others, and even Lu Xue's body has been placed with some mysterious demonic restrictions.

If she were to resist, she would surely die, or something far worse than death!
On the contrary, following the arrangements offers a glimmer of hope.

"very good."

Blood Cry Master nodded in satisfaction, and was about to end the conversation when Lu Xue seemed to remember something and quickly said:
"Furthermore, I have something else to report. Xiu Yanqing's return these past few days has been somewhat unusual; it seems..."

Lu Xue carefully chose her words, frowned, and said, "It seems like he's a completely different person. Although he speaks and acts the same as before, I still feel something is off about him."

"Oh?"

Blood Cry Master seemed somewhat surprised, and then asked, "You mean to say that Xiu Yanqing may have been impersonated?"

"This disciple dares not speak presumptuously, but I do find it somewhat strange."

Lu Xue shook her head, not daring to confirm the matter rashly.

"Your guess might be correct."

Blood Cry Master quickly calmed down and said, "Actually, it's not just our Six Desires Demon Sect that's interested in that thing; there are also some other people who have their eyes on this huge piece of meat."

"If I'm not mistaken, this person has already been impersonated..."

Upon hearing this, Lu Xue's expression changed slightly. The thought of Xiu Yanqing, whom she had become acquainted with these past few days, and the uncertainty of whether he was a human or a ghost, sent a chill down her spine. Xiu Yanqing had acted no differently than usual these past few days; if it weren't for her innate, unusual spiritual sense, which had subtly detected something amiss, she would likely have remained completely unaware.

Lu Xue couldn't help but ask, "Then, should this disciple..."

"Do not act rashly!"

Before Lu Xue could finish speaking, Blood Cry Master interrupted her and said, "This person's identity is currently unknown. You should just pretend you know nothing. If you have the chance, you can find out his background, but that's secondary. Your main task is still that thing."

Lu Xue hesitated for a moment and said, "But what if this person hinders our plans...?"

"There's no chance of anything going wrong. If there's any hindrance, we'll eliminate them immediately... Never mind, even you couldn't detect anything amiss. This person is definitely not simple. If they really do hinder our Six Desires Demon Sect's plans, you can tell me. I'll handle it then!"

Blood Cry Immortal realized his words were somewhat inappropriate halfway through, so he simply gave Lu Xue a reassuring answer.

Lu Xue breathed a sigh of relief.

Although she was a disciple of the demonic path, her cultivation was ultimately shallow. She was capable of lurking around Xiu Yanqing to gather information, but she had no confidence in dealing with an unknown person of unknown identity and race, who was suspected of having unfathomable cultivation.

The two quickly ended their conversation, and Lu Xue also lowered her guard.

However, she did not notice that a wisp of white smoke was gradually dissipating from her boots.

……

"The Six Desires Demonic Sect?"

Inside the room, Gu Yuan looked thoughtful, pondering the matter.

The Six Desires Demonic Sect is actually a major demonic sect, and it is a sect on the same level as the Yuanming Sect. It has been passed down from ancient times, and it is said that there is a foundation of primordial spirit level to suppress evil spirits within its sect.

As for the exact location of this demonic sect's mountain gate, Gu Yuan did not know. He only knew that disciples of the Six Desires Demonic Sect could be found in both the East Sea and the Southern Border cultivation worlds.

However, he was quite interested in the information revealed in the conversation between Lu Xue and the Blood Cry Elder of the Six Desires Demon Sect.

The reason these two people, or rather the Six Desires Demonic Sect behind them, sent Lu Xue to this Little Iron Cloud Island and stayed for more than 20 years, making such a long-term plan, was actually for one thing.

This item was not only targeted by the Six Desires Demon Sect, but also by the Old Man of Hun Tian, ​​and even by other forces.

This made Gu Yuan curious. What could it be that could attract so much attention?

Gu Yuan thought and thought, but still couldn't come up with any clues, since there was very little relevant intelligence information.

But one thing is for sure.

This item must be related to enormous interests! Moreover, the fact that it can attract the attention of a powerful Yang God like the Old Man of Hun Tian, ​​and even a major force like the Six Desires Demon Sect, means that this item must be extremely valuable. It might even be related to a Primordial Spirit True Immortal, or some kind of innate spiritual root level spiritual object!

Moreover, this item, or rather, the clues to it, seem to be in Xiu Daozhen's hands.
