Chapter 255: Master Of The Blood Sword Group


    "What do you mean there is a threat in our territory? Did theye from the capital or other regions? I will crush anyone who dares to cause amotion in my territory," bellowed the Master of the Blood Sword Group.


    The captain shook his head and exined everything that had urred with Lex and all the other captains present including the master were shocked and infuriated by everything they were hearing.


    "You mean to tell me that not only did you allow some of your men to be eliminated by this young man, but you also allow him to sink all of your ships that carried a year''s worth of loot. Along with all of that, the young man came from further out in the Lower ins and did so alone after his two femalepanions disappeared,"


    "Yes, that is exactly what urred,"


    The Blood Sword Group''s Master sat in arge chair that appeared simr to a throne and it crumbled under him, unable to contain his fury.


    Appearing in front of the captain with great speed, he grabbed his neck and lifted him in the air with one hand.


    He was a beast of a man that stood at 3 metres tall with an incredibly muscr and strong physique, while his body was so strong it almost seemed as though he was impervious to all attacks.


    "You have the face toe and say these things to me. You were better off running away, as I have no need for weak and incapable subordinates,"


    However, just as he was about to crush the neck of the captain, who despite being a high level Golden Mortal was like a weak child when faced against the Master, the other captains present intervened.


    "Calm down master, you know that he is one of your most loyal subordinates"


    "Give him a chance to redeem himself,"


    "Yes, and he is very careful, but would never bring you shame intentionally, which means this guy could be a serious threat,"


    There were three mercenary crews, three bandit crews and 3 pirate crews, all of rtively equal strength that were under the control of the Master of the Blood Sword Group.


    The name of their organisation originated from the master and how exactly he cultivated to be as powerful as he was.


    Using an evil cultivation method, he bathed in the blood of all sorts of different cultivators that numbered in the thousands and had a very high talent for such a body tempering method.


    Along with that, he was very skilled in swordsmanship and was his main method of fighting despite his bulky body that didn''t seem to suit wielding a sword.


    Through it, he was known for having the Invincible Giant Body and became renowned in the region.


    Since the region was not under the control of a powerful country, sect, or cultivation family, he formed a group of his own and took over the region.


    He didn''t control everything that urred, but would receive taxes from all in order to receive their so-called protection.


    In truth, it was a forced tax on all people in the region and if they didn''t pay it, they would be forced to do so or killed.


    While they would also offer up their services forrge sums of money or treasures, along with stealing from any lone travellers or traders.


    Dropping the captain''s body and looking at the other captains that had intervened, with a single look from him, they all bowed and showed their respect.


    "You guys are right. Joshua, go with him and take your crew. If both your crews are unable to bring me this person''s head along with finding his two femalepanions, I will have to punish you all and handle it myself," he stated before sitting down on hisrge chair that had already been reced by his servants.


    "Sir, I appreciate you sparing my life, but we do not know their origin yet. I think it would be best to try to subdue the young man as well and from what I saw, he seems to be an Eye Master,"


    "Interesting. A young Eye Master, no wonder you struggled so much to take him down. I always wanted to have one of them as a subordinate, so if you are able to capture him for me, I will reward you," he said.


    "This is to all captains. If you manage to capture him with your crew, then you will be promoted to being my right-hand man and rewarded handsomely. With an Eye Master, we can expand even further and I will force him to swear his allegiance to me,"


    Hearing that, all the captains were shocked, and they had never seen their master be so determined to capture somebody alive before, however, they knew just how rare and powerful Eye Masters were said to be.


    The captain that had already faced Lex decided to team up with Joshua, who was not only a powerful Pirate Captain and the first one to stop the Master from killing him, but was also his friend and someone he trusted.


    With his cautiousness and strategy, along with Joshua''s sharp instincts and power, they would be able to capture Lex with ease, or so they believed.


    The obvious thing to do was return to the area that they had firste across Lex in and they made sure that they all moved in groups and were on high alert.


    Lex was burrowed deep underground and could sense that the number of people looking for him in the area had doubled and it was clear to him that the pirate group had joined up with another.


    However, in a forest densely popted with trees, Lex was very confident in his skills and that he would be able to take them all down.


    With the Scouting Eye, his mastery of weaponry, the Spacial Eye and his great speed, it was the perfect environment for Lex as he exited the underground hole that he had been recovering within.
