Sacrificial Artifact System: From Bell-ringer to the Ancestral Patriarch of the Sect-Chapter 203 - 158: Fate (request for monthly tickets)

"Li Mo, let’s find her first."

Li Qian read Li Mo’s expression and understood what she was thinking.

He had already told Li Mo about the demon mark.

After knowing the function of the demon mark, Li Mo speculated about her sister’s situation.

What should she do if her sister was really trapped within the Demon Sect?

After all, she knew what the Demon Sect had done; they were truly against humanity.

"Uncle, what should I do if my sister is indeed part of the Demon Sect?" fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm

Li Mo said softly.

Her voice was a bit low; deep down, she had been full of anticipation for this sister she had never met.

At this moment, she didn’t want to meet her sister anymore.

She would rather her sister had died more than thirty years ago.

"It depends on what role she played within the Demon Sect."

Li Qian glanced at Li Mo and said indifferently.

After a moment of silence, Li Mo said, "If she really did harm to humanity, I won’t let her go."

"What if she was forced?"

Li Qian asked back.

"I... I don’t know..."

Li Mo looked a bit discouraged.

Although she said this, her heart was filled with confusion about the future.

As night fell.

Li Qian asked Li Mo to stay in the inn, while he left the inn, flying in the sky, his powerful Spiritual Perception infused with the power of the Qi Blood Holy Realm, detecting the aura on the ground.

If there were any half-demons present, they definitely couldn’t escape his perception.

Within the Demon Sect, there were surely many half-demons.

These half-demons blended into the crowd, and it was difficult to detect them when not demonized, unless by Heavenly Person level beings who would conduct detailed investigations to possibly notice some clues.

This is also why thoroughly purging the Demon Sect was extremely difficult.

However, Li Qian’s Qi Blood Holy Realm could sense the fluctuations of demon energy hidden within the half-demons.

He was now going to perform a thorough investigation.

Although it was time-consuming, this was the best method he could think of.

He might be able to seize this opportunity to eliminate all hidden members of the Demon Sect.

Until deep into the night.

Suddenly, Li Qian’s spirits lifted because he sensed the presence of a half-demon.

Immediately, his gaze swept across to the building below, which was a large walled compound.

"Magistrate’s mansion?"

Li Qian frowned slightly.

He didn’t expect the place haunted by half-demons would be in the Magistrate’s mansion.

Immediately, Li Qian conducted a thorough search of the Magistrate’s mansion.

Not just the surface structures, his Spiritual Perception and the power of the Qi Blood Holy Realm also penetrated into the ground, discovering a sizable underground palace facility.

In these underground facilities, many half-demons and other humans were hidden.

If it weren’t for his detection of the half-demon, which led to a targeted search, it would be hard to discover so many hidden members of the Demon Sect underground.

"Jeez, a Demon Sect stronghold hidden underneath the Magistrate’s mansion, it seems there are deep ties."

Li Qian marveled inwardly.

Then, he secretly snuck into the underground tunnels.

The location of this underground tunnel was about ten plus meters deep from the ground, quite wide and well-ventilated.

With his current cultivation realm, navigating this underground tunnel was unobstructed, and no one could detect his presence.

Even if he walked past someone, that person would be completely unaware.

His Heavenly Phenomenon Level Sword Intent could disrupt people’s five senses, even the Spiritual Perception of Innate Martial Artists.

"I found her."

Suddenly, Li Qian’s eyes brightened.

Because in one of the underground palaces, he found a woman who looked very similar to Li Mo.

...

Inside the underground palace.

The oil lamp was lit.

The room was arranged like the boudoir of a lady.

A woman sat in front of a dressing table.

She raised her hand, revealing a dark cyan bat pattern.

Today, she riskily sent out a letter, hoping her sister would see it and leave this place.

If the people in the sect discovered her sister’s presence, her sister might end up trapped like her, unable to turn back.

At that moment, a voice came from outside.

"Holy Daughter, the Divine Prayer Ceremony is about to begin."

"I know," the woman replied.

Her voice was cool and detached.

After the outside fell silent, the woman took a deep breath, trying to calm herself down, straightened her clothes, and then stood up to leave the underground palace, walking down the tunnel.

Li Qian, watching the woman who resembled Li Mo, did not immediately take action but rather wanted to see what this Demon Sect’s Divine Prayer Ceremony was about.

He followed the woman to a vast underground palace.

The position of this underground palace was at least a hundred meters under the ground.

The arrangement here was extremely luxurious, with various strange sculptures on the stone walls on both sides, and at the far end stood a giant statue.

Li Qian’s gaze fell on the statue.

It was not some petrified corpse, but a real stone sculpture.

The statue looked like a vampire from a past life, with a giant pair of bat wings on its back, recalling the bat pattern on Li Mo’s wrist, clearly this was the demon being worshiped by the Demon Sect.

Inside the underground palace, there were over a hundred people gathered.

In Li Qian’s perception, most of them had demon energy, clearly half-demons, with only a few without demon energy, and typically they were highly cultivated Innate Martial Artists.

There were two Grandmasters.

There was no Great Grandmaster.

When the woman entered, except for the two Grandmasters, everyone else stood up, clearly showing the woman held a high status in the Demon Sect.
