Chapter 185 Immediate Execution
Wang Shengqiao practiced the martial arts of the Demon Sect, possessing dark power. For him, restorative magic of the light element was actually an offensive spell. Although there were restorative dark magics, Eric chose not to use them.
Firstly, restorative dark magics were all high-level and required a considerable amount of magic power. Secondly, Eric possessed the "Earth Sha Extreme Yin Abyss," a sinister place where the dispersed Earth Sha energy accumulated. While it seemed useless to others, in Eric's hands, it became a holy land for all creatures practicing dark powers!
Eric planned to take Wang Shengqiao there so that he could not only recover at an extremely fast rate but also further advance to the pre-heaven level!
Because they were going to cause trouble for the Axe Gang today, Xiao Feng Qian was taken to the group headquarters. Since it was still early, Ailing didn't want to go back alone. She followed Eric to Longhua Town.
Longhua Town, near the "Earth Sha Extreme Yin Abyss," was originally desolate, but now it was brightly lit and bustling with activity. The reason was simple: Shanghai Mingjian Road and Bridge Co., Ltd. had sent a project team and five hundred workers here to work day and night on the construction of the manor needed by the "new owner."
However, they were currently only building some peripheral facilities. The "Earth Sha Extreme Yin Abyss" was still concealed by a mobile warehouse, guarded by dozens of vampires, and no one knew what was inside! Eric had no intention of letting anyone know, and he even decided that when the construction reached this point, all the work would be done by the vampires. It could be imagined that by then, the noble and elegant vampire clan would become laborers, working under the scorching sun, sweating, and contributing to the construction of the manor!
After entering the warehouse, Eric didn't delay much. He immediately had Wang Shengqiao empty his belongings and walk to the center of the magic array to begin gathering Earth Sha Yin Qi and infusing it into his body.
Although the martial arts of the Demon Sect progressed rapidly, they were not very stable and were prone to demonic influence. Generally speaking, large-scale infusion of "demonic energy" like this would cause the recipient's body to burst and die. Fortunately, Eric had thoroughly studied the "Dark Chronicles" and was adept at manipulating dark powers, so he spared Wang Shengqiao from this fate that was supposed to be inevitable!
As a top-notch expert, Wang Shengqiao's skill was already profound. Coupled with the infusion of this endless dark power, he truly entered the pre-heaven realm after just over an hour. However, Eric did not stop there. He continued to "infuse energy" relentlessly until Wang Shengqiao reached his body's limit.
"Thank you for your kindness, master!" Feeling the surging power in his body, Wang Shengqiao knelt down to thank him.
"Get up!" Eric waved his hand. "Get used to your current condition..."
"Yes..."n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om
At this moment, Tan Ailing hurried over.
Seeing her slight anxiety and the phone in her hand, Eric raised an eyebrow. "What's wrong? Did someone call for Wang Shengqiao?" He noticed that the phone Tan Ailing was holding was not hers but the one Wang Shengqiao had just taken out!
"Yes." Tan Ailing nodded. "Someone has been calling for more than twenty minutes, and it has rang seventeen times already, but I didn't want to disturb you..."
"It seems there's something urgent... Didn't you answer?"
"Why would I answer someone else's phone?" Tan Ailing glared at Eric and said with some worry, "Eric, I'm afraid someone will take advantage of this opportunity to deal with the Axe Gang. After all, the Northern Underground Alliance is eyeing Shanghai..."
Just as she said that, the phone rang again.
"The eighteenth time..."
Not wanting to see Tan Ailing frown again, Eric called Wang Shengqiao, who was still adjusting to his sudden increase in power, and handed him the phone.
"Hello, it's me..."
Seeing Wang Shengqiao's calm face, Tan Ailing breathed a sigh of relief and felt that she had been overthinking. However, Eric didn't think so!
Because he knew that someone affected by the "Puppet Technique" wouldn't care about anything other than the caster! For Wang Shengqiao now, the survival or demise of the Axe Gang would not make any difference!
After Wang Shengqiao finished the call, Eric immediately asked, "Is someone trying to attack the Axe Gang while they're vulnerable?"
"Wise master!" Wang Shengqiao nodded. "The Northern Underground Alliance has learned about what happened in the underground casino and is now launching a large-scale attack on the Axe Gang's branches everywhere. We can't resist, so they called me for help..."
Having seen many gang alliance situations, there were either gamblers or employees. Knowing about the massacre at the Axe Gang headquarters and the departure of its leader, they would naturally not miss such a rare opportunity.
Eric also knew that the losses caused by his group to the Axe Gang were huge. Conservatively estimated, they had weakened its strength by more than thirty percent! Although the Axe Gang boasted of having "eight thousand gang members," the elite members who could fight would definitely not exceed a thousand! When they were in the underground casino, his people had killed more than three hundred elite Axe Gang members and two of the eight top experts. If the Northern Underground Alliance didn't seize this opportunity, they would have missed out!
After thinking for a moment, Eric asked Wang Shengqiao, "If the Axe Gang is wiped out, will you be recalled to the Divine Wind Valley?"
"According to memory, the Demon Sect only has one method of dealing with failures, and that is—immediate execution!"
Tan Ailing became anxious as soon as she heard this. "Eric, we can't let the Northern Underground Alliance wipe out the Axe Gang. We must uncover the intentions of the Divine Wind Emperor..."
"I know!" Eric reassured Tan Ailing and said to Wang Shengqiao, "You go support the Axe Gang immediately..."
To be absolutely sure, Eric even dispatched ten Duke-level vampires to assist. With such a lineup, it was not only possible to defend against the Northern Underground Alliance's attacks but also to potentially wipe out the alliance in return!
