beautiful. That Ye kid got a bargain."A short, shifty-eyed man beside him said, "Brother, why don't we guys have some fun first, then take her back"A gaunt middle-aged man's expression shifted: "What...To put it simply, it's just an array formation. Find its loophole and break it.

Ye Bufan wasn't lying. This protective sect blood sacrifice was indeed derived from an array, but it took hundreds of years to reach its current scale.

That means after taking away so much blood qi, the formation is essentially useless and it will take at least another hundred years to achieve this scale again.

With the blood mist gone, the scene before them was laid bare. Everyone looked down into the Blood River together.

Looking around, I see nothing but emptiness. Beneath my feet lies a vast swamp.

But this is nothing to the powerhouses of the Tribulation Transcendence stage. Everyone flies in mid-air, and the swamp has no effect on them at all.

And just as everyone was about to go in, a sudden burst of laughter rang out.

The laughter was crisp and resonant, with an endless hint of seduction. The sound alone could stir a man's heart, igniting boundless fantasies.

Then dozens of figures dashed over from afar, at the head was a middle-aged woman with a fiery figure and alluring posture, every gesture exuding endless temptation.

"This humble one, Xue Qianying, the Sect Master of Shengxue Sect, welcomes you all to my Blood River."

Xue Qianying had a smile on her face, her mesmerizing eyes sweeping across the crowd before landing on Ye Bufan.

"This young man must be the legendary medical immortal, he truly looks like a jade tree facing the wind, handsome beyond compare."

It seems the legends are true, Doctor Ye is indeed a prodigy. Just arriving here, he has given me a great gift, breaking my family's centuries-old blood curse.

Her words were spoken in a low, mournful tone, as if a long-separated wife were confiding her sorrows to her beloved husband.

Gong Junyi and Zhang Qi Chu quickly turned their heads away. If they looked any longer, they were afraid they wouldn't be able to control themselves. This woman's allure was too strong.

Ye Bufan remained completely unmoved: "Was my daughter taken away by one of you"

"You're right, the little princess is staying with me."

Xue Qianying still wore a captivating smile, “There’s no other way. This servant admires Dr. Ye's charm and wanted to invite him but was unable to. So I came up with this method. Please forgive me, Doctor Ye.”

Ye Bufan said coldly, "Where is my daughter Bring her back to me at once."

Xue Qianying flashed a flirtatious glance and reached out to adjust her collar, revealing a glimpse of cleavage.

"Doctor Ye, there's no need to rush. Once this matter is settled here, I will definitely return the princess to you, ensuring not a single hair is missing."

Ye Bufan's entire body was filled with murderous intent: "Cut the crap, return my daughter, or I will immediately destroy your Shengxue Sect."

"What a clueless jerk! I wonder how these women could be fooled by you."

Xie Qianying was still filled with resentment and said, "If that's the case, then alright. I'll let you see for yourself first."

After she finished speaking, she waved her hand toward the rear. Two figures darted forward, it was precisely Left Guardian Blood Limitless and Right Guardian Blood Boundless.

Blood stood at the edge of a precipice, holding a sleeping child in his arms. It was little Leaf, who had been snatched away.

Give me back my daughter!

Seeing the little guy, Lanxi immediately lost control of her emotions and wanted to rush over and grab him.

"Sister, please don't be impulsive."

Xue Qianying flashed, her speed astonishing. She blocked Lan Xi's path.

"My two protectors are rather rough around the edges, clumsy and unrefined. If they frighten you and hurt the little princess, that would be terrible."

Xue Qianying glanced at Ye Bufan, who was brimming with energy. "I've heard a lot about your many tricks, Ye Yixian, and how hard you are to defend against. But my two guardians are both powerful figures in the late tribulation period."

"If you're not sure you can take them both out at once, the consequences could be very serious. I advise my little brother not to take that risk."

Her words were both sweet and flirtatious, yet they fell like a bucket of cold water on Ye Bufan, instantly sobering him up.

He could tell at a glance that Xue Wubian and Xue Wuji were formidable powerhouses, genuine late-stage tribulation cultivators.

If he only faced one, he might still be able to use his Divine Sense Blade to catch him off guard and reclaim Little Leaf. But facing two, there was no chance of success whatsoever.

And as Xue Qianying said, he couldn't risk it. He dared not take the risk, after all, the price of failure was his daughter's life.

Thinking this, he took a deep breath, suppressing the anger and impulse in his heart, while reaching out to pull Lan back.

"Just tell me, what do you want"

"Don't rush, this isn't the place to talk. Let's go inside."

Blood Shadow said, winking at him again, "Doctor Ye, I'll remind you one more time, don't have any bad thoughts."

"Such a beautiful little princess, I like her just by looking at her. Please don't let anything happen to her."

Then, he addressed the two guards behind him, "Physician Ye is not an ordinary person. She has many tricks up her sleeve. You should keep your distance from her, at least a thousand meters away."

"Always be careful, never let your guard down, understand"

Ye Bufan was gnashing his teeth in hatred, wishing he could cut this woman into a thousand pieces.

But he knew he absolutely couldn't be impulsive. Not to mention whether or not he was his opponent, just his daughter had him wrapped around her little finger.

It's clear that Xue Qianying is cunning, sly, and deeply calculating. This time, it seems she's met her match.

For now, there's no good solution, we can only take it one step at a time.

"My friends, come with me. Please don't say that the Blood Saint Sect is not hospitable."

Xue Qianying swayed her sexy figure in front, leading everyone towards the Blood River.

Lanxi walked behind, tightly grasping Ye Bufan's sleeve, watching Xiao Ye from afar with a worried expression on his face.

"Husband, what should we do Our daughter..."

"Don't rush, being impulsive right now won't help at all and might even make things worse. Relax, I will definitely find a way to save little Leaf."

Ye Bufan comforted Lan Xi while his mind raced, but after much thought, he couldn't come up with any truly good solutions.

It's clear that Xue Qianying had taken precautions beforehand, making it impossible for him to easily retrieve the little one.

And the two people they arranged were too powerful in cultivation. It was impossible to kill them instantly.

The crowd walked for a whole hour, finally arriving at a vast valley.

We have left the swamp behind, and instead there are lush green grasses and blooming flowers everywhere.

In the center of the valley stood a platform, measuring a thousand zhang in diameter and five zhang high. The stone walls surrounding it were engraved with all manner of strange runes.

After arriving here, Ye Bufan felt a growing unease in his heart. However, he carefully searched the area but found nothing amiss.

Xue Qianying stopped in her tracks and turned to face the crowd. "Welcome everyone to my Holy Blood Sect for this year's Holy Blood Conference."

"Actually, our topic today is quite simple: you surrender to the Blood Saint Sect. From now on, all of Tianluo Prefecture belongs to the Blood Saint Sect!"

"Bah, you crooked scoundrel, what big talk!"

Zhang Qi Chu angrily said, "A hundred years ago, the major sects did not completely wipe out the Sheng Xue Zong. It was your luck."

"You should just find a place to hide and live in secrecy, but you dare to come out and cause trouble! Today is the end for you!"

"So you guys disagree" Blood Shadow smiled even more brilliantly, not the slightest bit angry.evious strike was ineffective, Ye Bufan ran, his figure flashing as he used teleportation to instantly appear behind Adams. The dragon's tooth in his hand slashed out again.At the same time, Situ Dian...
