...

Once the Blood Trees realized they had a new master, they all smiled and even began to lavish him with praise.

"Master Nightdevil is powerful and extraordinary, unmatched under the heavens."

"Master Nightdevil is a strategy master! Even the most difficult tasks, he can accomplish successfully!"

Yan Xiaobao, with a melancholic, cool expression, looked at the flattering Blood Trees, but in his eyes, there was a hint of encouragement. Initially, the Blood Trees were very tense, but upon seeing his encouraging expression, they gathered courage and flattered him even more. Yan Xiaobao sighed and shook his head.

"I really am excellent," he muttered under his breath. "Wherever I go, people always try to flatter me. It's annoying, but I can't stop them." His sigh caused the Blood Trees' flattery to increase.

"Compared to Nightdevil, no other Demon exists in the world!"

"Just one glance, and Nightdevil will make all female cultivators faint..."

"When Nightdevil sighs, the sky turns dark!"

As the Blood Trees went all out, Yan Xiaobao happily walked into the Immortal Master's Immortal Cave. The Blood Qi here didn't seem as intense as it was near Song Que Blood Waterfall. Yan Xiaobao felt more satisfied than before.

There were seven or eight puppets, all providing formal greetings. He soon sent them into his collapsed Immortal Cave, bringing his possessions there.

Soon, the fact that Yan Xiaobao had taken over the Immortal Master's Immortal Cave spread throughout the Middle Peak. However, brand new stories about Nightcrypt's atrocities were being told.

Half a month passed, during which Nightcrypt's stories grew wilder and wilder. All cultivators in the area had come to know of him.

Soon, everyone realized that a new savage figure had appeared in the Blood Flow Sect. He single-handedly fought against a group of Foundation experts, even killing seven or eight of them. He absorbed all the Blood Qi from the Middle Peak, forming a massive, shocking Blood Sword.

Then came his Reverse Blood Ancestry awakening, which completely surprised everyone.

"He has a strange personality, completely unpredictable. One second, he will slaughter people left and right, the next, he's calm, letting everyone off the hook. It's impossible to figure him out..."

"I heard that according to Patriarch Limitless, it was Nightcrypt's demonic nature that allowed him to escape from Bai Xiaochun of the Spirit Creek Sect. Nightcrypt is evidently exceptional for a time!"

"Even Song Que is not a match for him! He's only established in the Mortal-Dao Foundation, which is too bad. Otherwise, he'd be even stronger than now!"

"No matter. I heard the Great Elders of the four peaks were fighting over him. Eventually, he chose Grand Elder Song Junwan of Middle Peak. What a pity..."

Of course, news leaked from the Blood Stream Sect's territory to other sect territories. Eventually, even the warring Profound Stream Sect and Pill Stream Sect heard about Nightcrypt.

The Spirit Stream Sect was closer to the Blood Stream Sect, so they knew more details. Ultimately, both North Shore and South Shore of the Spirit Stream Sect were buzzing with the topic.

Ghostfang was in secluded meditation, but he even heard some stories. Frowning, he recalled the Fallen Sword Abyss but couldn't remember a Blood Stream cultivator by that name. "Nightcrypt? I don't remember him..."

Shangguan Tianyou was also in secluded meditation. After contemplating the matter, he couldn't recall any information about the person. But it didn't matter. He was displeased with anyone stronger than him. When it comes to any generation's elector, they know the only way to maintain their position is to continually become stronger.

"Nightcrypt..." Zhou Xinqi took a deep breath. The Spirit Stream Sect paid close attention to the Blood Stream Sect's affairs. Zhou Xinqi was very shocked by the news, especially when she heard he had battled a group of Foundation experts. Clenching her teeth, she focused more intensely on cultivation.

Along with Beihan Lie, Lu Tianlei, Xu Song, Gongsun Yun, and many other electors, stories about Nightcrypt urged them to focus more. As for the Sect Leader and other senior leaders, they noticed but were more interested in the Reverse Blood Inheritance awakening.

"If this Nightcrypt continues to get stronger, he might be headed for disaster..."

"Invest more resources into searching for Bai Xiaochun. Ever since the child left, not even his shadow has appeared. Even those we sent to monitor him have failed to find any clues."

The Spiritual Sect electors and leadership figures were shaken. As for ordinary Inner Sect disciples, most were unimpressed by the stories they heard.

"What is Nightcrypt really about? Can he even come close to Uncle Bai?"

"Precisely. If Uncle Bai fought him, this Nightcrypt would turn to dust in an instant!" That's what many said, especially Hou Xiaomei and Big Fatty Zhang. Xu Baocai's opinions were particularly passionate.

Indeed, to confirm her theory that the newly renowned Nightcrypt would be thoroughly destroyed by a simple wave of Bai Xiaochun's finger, Hou Xiaomei went to consult Hou Yunfei, who was in secluded meditation.

After long contemplation, Hou Yunfei laughed and said, "Nightcrypt? There are so many attacking Xiao Chun simultaneously. I really don't remember them."

"I know he's not human! Big Bro Xiaochun is the best." Initially, Hou Xiaomei was very happy. However, her cheer quickly faded. "Where do you think Xiao Chun is now? How come no one can find him? I hope he's not in trouble."

Hou Yunfei messed up his hair and looked off into the distance.

"Don't worry about him," he laughed. "Wherever he actually is, the one ultimately getting into trouble will be everyone unlucky enough to be around him. Who knows how many people have gone mad because of him so far?"
