Chapter 1382: Demon Venerable Clan, Bloodline Curse

"But, but… this, this can't be…" Yun Che stammered. If it were before, he would have directly retorted.

But after witnessing Xiao Fan's Prodigy strength… he couldn't even bring himself to say a word of rebuttal.

The other's Bone Age was only in his 20s…

Only in his 20s…

And yet he could easily suppress him.

At this rate of growth, it wouldn't be long before Xiao Fan could easily suppress the Demon Venerable as well.

When that time came… the life and death of the Demon Venerable Lineage might truly depend on a single thought from Xiao Fan.

Thinking of this… Yun Che fell silent.

"Brother… I hope you can understand," Yun Lou said, his eyes fixed on Yun Che, staring intensely.

Yun Che looked into Yun Lou's eyes… and understood what his brother meant!

Between blood brothers, communication required no words; a single look was enough…

Yun Che took a deep breath and nodded to Yun Lou before looking at Xiao Fan… He knelt on one knee and lowered his noble head…

"I, Yun Che… am willing to recognize Lord Xiao as my master today… If I betray him, may I suffer Heavens Punishment and Earths Destruction…"

Xiao Fan: "???"

Xiao Fan was dumbfounded. What the hell was going on?

First Yun Lou knelt, and now his brother knelt too!!

They both wanted to recognize him as their master?

Before Xiao Fan could speak… Yun Lou knelt again and repeated the oath he had just taken.

"Wait, wait… what are you doing?!" Xiao Fan said in surprise. "When did I agree to take you in as servants!!"

Xiao Fan was truly bewildered…

He had been planning to kill them, for heaven's sake!

Yet these two just knelt down and wanted to recognize him as their boss!

What the hell was this!!

Upon hearing this…

Yun Lou and Yun Che were also stunned…

They had sacrificed their dignity for the sake of the Demon Venerable Lineage.

But then… the other party hadn't even agreed.

Just then… the Red Demoness flew over.

"Xiao Fan… what is this?" the Red Demoness asked. She had been a bit far away and only saw Yun Lou and Yun Che kneeling to Xiao Fan, but couldn't hear the conversation.

Xiao Fan explained how Yun Che and Yun Lou had knelt and wanted to recognize him as their master.

"Agree to it… it will be of great benefit to you." Hearing this, the Red Demoness's eyes lit up, and she spoke hurriedly.

"Uh… why?" Xiao Fan was puzzled.

Was this kind of oath even useful?

In Xiao Fan's eyes, it was useless…

To him, whether it was Yun Lou or Yun Che, they were just doing it to stay alive.

What was the point of keeping two burdens around?

"It's like this… the Bloodline of the Demon Venerable Lineage is different from other Demon Races… from birth, there is a Curse Power within their Bloodline… It is said that as long as they swear loyalty to someone… the hidden Curse Power in the Bloodline will take effect. If they betray… that Curse Power will definitely kill them, leaving no chance of survival!!" the Red Demoness explained.

"Why is it like that?" Xiao Fan was surprised.

The Red Demoness shook her head. "I don't know that either… it's a secret of the Demon Venerable Lineage."

Xiao Fan nodded, then looked at Yun Lou and Yun Che.

Yun Lou immediately understood and said respectfully, "Reporting to Lord… actually, the curse in our Bloodline was left by the previous Human Sovereign."

"Hmm??" Xiao Fan was stunned. "Why did he leave such a thing?"

"There's no harm in telling Lord… actually, our Demon Venerable Lineage was once under the Human Sovereign's command… all born clansmen must serve the Human Sovereign for generations… hence the Curse Power in the Bloodline… but after the Human Sovereign fell… the Curse Power in the Bloodline had no object to swear to, so it remained hidden within the Bloodline…"

Xiao Fan nodded…

Beside him, the Red Demoness also came to a realization.

She finally understood the reason behind it.

Yun Che and Yun Lou didn't stand up, still kneeling respectfully on the ground…

Xiao Fan thought for a moment… just now he really had no interest in taking in Yun Lou and Yun Che.

But now…

Since the Demon Venerable Lineage were all descendants of the Human Sovereign's servants.

As the new Human Sovereign… logically, he should take in Yun Lou and Yun Che.

At the very least, he shouldn't wipe them out completely…

"Fine, I'll take you in," Xiao Fan said grandly.

Hearing this, Yun Che and Yun Lou showed joy and quickly swore their loyalty…

The oath was completed…

Ancient runes appeared on the skin of Yun Che and Yun Lou… then faded away.

This proved the oath had taken effect.

Now, if Yun Che and Yun Lou betrayed Xiao Fan… they would explode and die…"
