Chapter 1712: Luo Xinsheng’s Fate

Mengyu thought, this Luo Xinsheng isn’t stupid after all; he actually saw through the conspiracy of the Seventh Grandpa. But this Seventh Grandpa is truly frightening, wanting to eliminate the Qin Family’s direct descendants.

Luo Xinsheng continued, "I know you all have plans for me; after sacrificing my son, whether successful or not, you would eventually kill me too. But have you considered that as an ordinary mortal coming with you into this underground village, I might have some preparation?

I’m not afraid to tell you, before coming here, I recorded the secrets of the Qin Family and everything happening today, leaving it with a friend. If I can’t get out, that letter will be sent out. By then, your evil practices of human sacrifice will be exposed. Not just today, but in the future, once I die, your activities of living sacrifices will become known.

By then, when the Dragon Team comes knocking, this reclusive underground village of yours will be destroyed in an instant!"

Luo Xinsheng’s words caused everyone in the underground ancestral hall to look pale.

The location of the Qin Family Mansion is ideal, and with the Patriarch’s array, the village has Spiritual Energy which, though weak, is much better than the outside, making it suitable for cultivation. Otherwise, they can’t cultivate if they leave the village or if the array is destroyed by others.

They all looked at the Seventh Grandpa.

The Seventh Grandpa listened to Luo Xinsheng’s threat, his eyes flickering with changing expressions.

Finally, a somewhat stiff smile appeared on his face, "Luo Xinsheng, didn’t I make a Heart Demon Oath with you long ago? Why don’t you trust me?"

Luo Xinsheng snorted, "Seventh Grandpa, I’m not a child; I don’t believe in such oaths. Although you claim that you cultivators can’t make Heart Demon Oaths carelessly, I’ve heard that the Heart Demon Tribulation only occurs during the Ascension Tribulation. And your life expectancy is running low, so you don’t even have the opportunity for tribulation. Even if you made a Heart Demon Oath, what use is it?

So, stop deceiving me. No matter what you say, I absolutely disagree with sacrificing my son!"

The Seventh Grandpa and the others exchanged glances: he actually knew that the Heart Demon Tribulation only appears during the Ascension Tribulation.

The Human Demon finally spoke, "Although it’s my first time returning to the Qin Family and participating in this event, I think since you’ve conducted four sacrifices already, this will be the fifth time. If it’s not successful this time, it only signifies that the ancestor has reincarnated, and further sacrifices are useless.

Therefore, I suggest that once midnight passes, we should open the secret door of the statue and see. If Wenju hasn’t awakened, it means this sacrifice has failed, so we should just seal this statue."

Everyone listened to the Human Demon’s words and looked towards the Seventh Grandpa.

The Seventh Grandpa nodded, "Then, alright — fine."

Luo Xinsheng quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

However, just as he relaxed his vigilance, the Seventh Grandpa’s attack came. He didn’t even have time to trigger his explosive device before he fell with his eyes wide open.

The Seventh Grandpa’s face was utterly cold, "Just an ant, yet he dares to threaten this old man."

It seemed everyone anticipated such an outcome, as no one spoke a word. Even the Human Demon, who initially sided with Luo Xinsheng, merely frowned without making a sound.

Two people came up and dragged Luo Xinsheng’s corpse away.

The Seventh Grandpa said, "Prepare the offering. If the altar shows no sign of activity in an hour, proceed with the second sacrifice."

"Yes!" someone agreed and dragged Wen Ying in front of the statue.

The underground ancestral hall fell into a deathly silence.

Mengyu hadn’t expected that the old man would act so swiftly, killing Luo Xinsheng just like that.

However, since Luo Xinsheng dared to harm Qing Wen, his death was deserved. Even if she had the chance to save him, she wouldn’t have done so.
