“Mr. Pruitt, the disciples of the Soul Demon Sect are no longer in danger. They just need time to recuperate,” Jared informed Trystan.
Trystan expressed his gratitude sincerely, “I can't thank you enough, Mr. Chance. Without you, I fear my Soul Demon Sect would have been destroyed.”
“Don't mention it. My only regret is that I couldn't finish off Cassius. I'm afraid he might still come after you in the future,” Jared expressed his concern.
Upon hearing this, Trystan appeared somewhat despondent and sighed softly. “I never imagined that even Gustave and Rainier would stoop to consorting with Cassius. They've broken their pledges to our master. I, too, let down our master by letting my desire to advance to a higher cultivation level consume me.”
“Mr. Pruitt, what happened between you and your fellow disciples? How did you end up becoming enemies?” Jared asked curiously.
“It's a long story, Mr. Chance. We were once disciples under the same master. Our master was a notorious demon lord in the Ethereal Realm. Unfortunately, during his final ascension to the Immortal Realm, he was struck by a lightning tribulation and failed to overcome it. In the end, he met his demise in a state of despair,” Trystan explained with a sigh. “However, before his death, our master warned us never to practice the forbidden arts we had learned. While techniques like bloodsucking and bone gnawing could rapidly enhance our abilities, they destabilized our foundation. The further we advanced, the greater the risk of failing to transcend our tribulations.”
He continued, “We all made a solemn promise to our master, vowing never to cultivate using forbidden techniques. However, Cassius later betrayed our master. He founded the Blood Bone Sect, continuously consuming human blood and gnawing on human bones as part of his cultivation. This caused an uproar among the numerous cultivators of Demonia Mountain, with complaints spreading far and wide. I had no choice but to join forces with other monks to hunt him down. Unfortunately, Cassius managed to escape to Epea and took refuge in Allardland.”
“This time, he has returned to seek revenge. What I never anticipated was that Gustave and Rainier would break their vows and follow Cassius, becoming just like him.” Trystan's expression was downcast, the shock and sadness evident in his demeanor.
“Everyone has their own ambitions, Mr. Pruitt, and we can't dictate how others choose to cultivate themselves. Do you have any idea where they are now?” Jared inquired.
