God Of War Dad

Single Eye’s heart skipped a beat as he naturally knew what the person was suspecting. After hesitating for a moment, he said in a deep voice, “Master Dasch’s meaning is, this person deliberately concealed his true realm, toying with us?”

Yes! Toying! Earlier, in the desolate wilderness, Single Eye and Sean had fought for half a day. If Sean wasn’t at the Complete Stage but was close to the Bright Realm… then a single slap could have killed him. Yet there they were, pretending to battle for dozens of rounds. If this wasn’t toying, then what was it?

It’s strange! Cultivators close to the Bright Realm are rare, especially in a city like Plainwater Town. They are formidable existences, such as the current master of the branch and the director of the Buddha Academy Plainwater Town branch, Hastiff, whose status and position are extremely noble.

As for “Great Monkey”? Just a Gorillas servant, how could he possibly possess such a high realm and strength???

Hence, even though Single Eye had previously harbored the same suspicions, and even though there were substances in the branch that could allow one to conceal their realm, Single Eye didn’t dare to truly consider that possibility. After all, in his view, unless the situation was special, ordinary people had no need to deliberately conceal their true realm. Besides, a braggart like “Great Monkey,” who was so arrogant as to want to raise his tail to the sky, how could he be so low-key, refraining from boasting about his strength?

“This person is profound and unpredictable, with an extraordinary temperament. I’m currently unable to confirm his specific realm.”

The person thought for a moment and snorted, “Let him in. Whether he’s hiding his true strength or just pretending, we’ll know soon enough.”

“Good!” Single Eye immediately turned and walked away.

“Mr. Monkey!”

Arriving at the entrance to the grand hall, Single Eye’s gaze towards Sean changed slightly. It lost a hint of smugness and gained a touch of cautiousness, signaling, “Master Dasch requests your presence!”

Sean wasn’t foolish! Upon seeing that the master of the branch was close to the Bright Realm, he knew this farce was probably about to end. But since he had come this far, there was naturally no need to continue acting.

So, without hesitation, Sean stepped forward, crossed the stone gate, and entered the grand hall. It was only after entering the hall that Sean truly saw the full extent of the interior!

As it turned out, the most shocking aspect of this grand hall was not just the enormous blood pool with a diameter of over a hundred meters, or the two cross-shaped jade stone arch bridges. It was also the rows of cold iron cages carved into the surrounding stone walls. At least a hundred of them! Almost every cold iron cage held a person. Some cowered in the corners of the cages, ragged and shivering, like beggars on the street. Some had scales on their faces and bodies, just like Single Eye and the King of Night, in a state of semi-human and semi-demon. Some had failed in their transformation and lay dead in the cages, leaving only a cold body behind.

In front of the stone wall, there were winding stone stairs that led to all the cold iron cages. Many members of the Hall of Jade were busy there, either walking on the stairs or injecting venom into the captives, or carrying the bodies of those who had failed their transformation and throwing them into the blood pool.

Everything seemed orderly! At first glance, the entire hall seemed like a large “chicken farm,” and those imprisoned in the cold iron cages were like a group of “chickens” waiting to be slaughtered.

Seeing this scene, Sean couldn’t help but feel a sense of sorrow. Initially, the King of Night, like those people, was probably imprisoned in one of those cold iron cages! Luckily, the King of Night was lucky enough to find an opportunity to escape!

“Keep up!” The few Hall of Jade members who followed were originally just the branch guards. After escorting Sean in, they were going to leave. But after suspecting Sean’s true strength, as a precaution, Single Eye signaled them to stay close to Sean, just in case. Sean noticed these little actions, but he didn’t mind. He walked up to one of the stone arch bridges and stopped, staring at the figure on the pavilion and casually asked, “Are you the owner of this demon’s lair?”

After a moment, the person slowly stood up, turned around, and met Sean’s gaze, asking in return, “Who are you?”

“A Gorillas servant!” “Great Monkey!” Sean pointed at Single Eye and said, “He wasted half a minute of my time. Didn’t he tell you? You can call me Lord Monkey, or you can call me Lord!”

Single Eye’s face darkened. Even after entering the Hall of Jade and meeting the branch master, Sean dared to be so arrogant. It was truly pushing it. However, the person staring at Sean paid no attention to Sean’s nonsense. He introduced himself, “I am Dasch, the branch master of the Hall of Jade!”

Then Dasch directly asked, “You concealed your strength, schemed tirelessly, and used Single Eye to enter the Hall of Jade. What are your intentions?”

There was no pretense or flattery. His words directly tore away the facade.

At these words, Single Eye and the Hall of Jade members around Sean all had their pupils contract, their faces becoming extremely serious. Because Sean’s next answer would confirm Dasch’s suspicions.

“Intentions?” Faced with Dasch’s sudden questioning, Sean remained unruffled, shook his head with a smile, and asked in return, “If I recall correctly, wasn’t it that idiot begging me to come to this demon’s lair, yelling three times that the people of the Hall of Jade are idiots, and that Gorillas’ people are the true cultivators? How did it end up that I’m the one with ulterior motives?”

Single Eye was sweating bullets. When he recounted the events to Dasch, he naturally omitted the part where Sean was begged to come. He omitted it for a simple reason – neither he nor the Hall of Jade could afford to lose this person. However, Sean, this bastard, actually proudly blurted it out. Furthermore, Sean didn’t deliberately lower his voice. His voice was like thunder, spreading throughout the entire hall. Even the Hall of Jade members who were busy working stopped and looked over, their eyes filled with surprise and anger, shooting looks at Single Eye as if he was the target, making him feel extremely uncomfortable, even feeling the urge to rush forward and fight Sean.

What made Single Eye even more terrified was that Dasch also gave him a fierce glare, his gaze sharp as a knife, which made his legs go weak, and he broke out in a cold sweat.

“Master Dasch! I…” Single Eye was about to explain, but Dasch raised his hand to stop him. He didn’t rush to argue with him, but instead locked his icy gaze back on Sean, saying ominously, “A one-eyed man is easy to deceive. Do you think I can be deceived as well?”

If the previous suspicions were just that, suspicions, then after Sean entered the grand hall and the distance between the two of them closed, Dasch carefully and seriously sensed Sean’s strength up close. Now, he was almost certain that Sean had indeed concealed his true strength.

So, his words were unequivocal.

“Hmm!” Sean raised an eyebrow. He had known he couldn’t keep up the act, so he decided to stop pretending. He shrugged and admitted, “Well, I give up. I won’t pretend anymore. Actually, I am a cultivator close to the Bright Realm!”
