Dantian shattered, Qi Sea collapsed.

All my Inner Strength, gone with the wind!

The eyes of the Blood Lotus Sect Leader brimmed with unyielding reluctance.

In the end, all he could do was let out a long sigh.

At this moment, Su Mo just now unlocked the acupoint on his legs:

"Please."

"...Please."

The Blood Lotus Sect Leader was indeed a true man.

Having his martial arts skills abolished by Su Mo, he didn’t make a sound.

Taking heavy steps, he walked toward where Su Mo and the others had come from.

Fang Hongying watched this scene, unsure if she should feel relieved or something else, her brows furrowed, her expression complex.

Xuanyuan Xiaoshan was still under the control of Other’s Heart Gu and couldn’t speak for the time being.

Su Mo was about to lead Little Situ out when he turned back to look at the Blood Lotus in that Blood Pond.

With a thought, he suddenly unleashed a Ziyang Divine Palm at the Blood Lotus.

"No!!!"

The Blood Lotus Sect Leader heard the wind sound off and turned around, his eyes instantly filled with rage.

But it was already too late.

What extraordinary power did Su Mo’s Ziyang Divine Palm, struck with Pure Yang Inner Power, possess?

As soon as it touched the Blood Lotus, a loud boom was heard.

The lotus immediately exploded.

The Blood Lotus Sect Leader let out a wail and fell to his knees:

"My Blood Lotus!!!"

Even though Su Mo had abolished his martial arts, he had not reacted in this manner.

Su Mo’s expression was momentarily strange.

And amidst the wailing, the Blood Lotus Sect Leader suddenly seemed to have realized something, rushing forward suddenly, but after taking one step, he stopped, standing in place, trembling all over.

Su Mo quietly looked at him:

"Continue forward."

"..."

The Blood Lotus Sect Leader gritted his teeth: "I... I..."

Su Mo smiled gently:

"I have been honest with you, but the Sect Leader seems not to be very forthright; is there perhaps something in this Blood Pond that I cannot see?"

"No... no..."

The Blood Lotus Sect Leader shook his head repeatedly.

Su Mo didn’t mind, merely gesturing toward the Blood Pond:

"Sect Leader, please."

The Blood Lotus Sect Leader stood in place, unmoving:

"Lord Su, why... the Blood Lotus was destroyed by you, it’s destroyed... I..."

Before he finished speaking, the sound of rushing water was heard.

The blood within the Blood Lotus surged continuously, splitting to both sides.

Su Mo stepped forward, reaching the Lotus Pond, looking down, only to see strings of blood-red lotus roots scattered across the pond bed.

He paused, thinking for a moment, then put on his deer skin gloves, reached out, and a lotus root flew up into his palm.

Pulling hard, Su Mo extracted a string of lotus roots and pods.

"You!!"

The Blood Lotus Sect Leader couldn’t help but shout angrily:

"You destroyed my Blood Lotus and... and took my lotus roots! You, you thief!"

Su Mo disregarded this and swept the Lotus Pond clean, finally uprooting the entire Blood Lotus.

Forming it into a bundle, grasping the roots, he dragged it out.

The Blood Lotus Sect Leader’s face was full of distress, his teeth bared in pain.

Little Situ studied the lotus pods and roots thoughtfully and said softly:

"Brother Su, the Blood Lotus Sect uses this Blood Lotus to pretend to be a god, claiming there exists a Lotus World and a Blood Lotus Mother."

"It now seems that while the Blood Lotus Mother may be false, the Blood Lotus is indeed somewhat strange."

"Cultivated and irrigated with the blood of virgins, each root is blood red, sparkling like blood jade, and the seeds within the pods yet unknown in appearance..."

"After returning, it can be studied thoroughly; it might have unexpected effects."

Su Mo nodded: "I think so too."

Fang Hongying furrowed her brows at this:

"The two of you, the evil people of the Blood Lotus Sect use sinister methods to cultivate the lotus."

"The origins of this item are definitely not righteous."

"It’s better not to try it lightly."

"Moreover, even if there is something precious within, the object cultivated by such methods..."

She furrowed her brows, finding it unacceptable.

Su Mo laughed quietly:

"Miss, your words are somewhat biased."

"There are countless treasures in the world; this method might be evil, but it’s a human calamity, unrelated to you and me, and unrelated to the object itself."

"If there truly is something exceptional within."

"Being used by someone of the Blood Lotus Sect Leader’s caliber would cause havoc in Jianghu, which would indeed be unpleasant."

"But if used by someone with chivalrous intentions, it could rid the world of evil and spread goodness, wouldn’t that be a worthy tale?"

"This..."

Fang Hongying was slightly taken aback, finding Su Mo’s words not without reason.

But just thinking about herself and a group of sisters irrigating the Blood Lotus day and night with fresh blood, and then eating the cultivated lotus roots and seeds felt somewhat unbearable.

Wanting to refute Su Mo, she couldn’t find a suitable reason, and ultimately had to give up.

Walking out without many obstacles.

Soon they encountered other young ladies who were trapped here.

Upon seeing Su Mo and the others, these girls were overjoyed.

But seeing the Blood Lotus Sect Leader left them confused, wondering where another man had come from.

Fang Hongying explained the identity of this person succinctly.

The group of girls widened their eyes in disbelief.

Could it be true?

The leader of the Blood Lotus Sect was a man!?

They were momentarily aghast.

Trapped here as if livestock, feeding the lotus daily with their blood was one thing.

But with the Blood Lotus Sect Leader being a man, if he had any improper thoughts.

That... it would be disastrous, right?

This thought seemed evident, noted by the Blood Lotus Sect Leader, who couldn’t help but coldly laugh:

"Hmph, you wish."
