"Who is Blood Demon? Is he really that formidable?" Sebastian asked.
Cleef's expression turned serious. "He founded the Blood Demon Sect. It was a force that was second to the Four Great Immortal Sects.
"Blood Demon is a supreme powerhouse. He's on par with the elders of the four major families of Phaedra Island.
"Not only that, he practices a dark art that demands that he drink human blood every day. His cruelty is unparalleled, leaving devastation in his wake wherever he goes.
"Over the past decade, he has wiped out at least seven or eight hidden families and showed no mercy to anyone-men, women, or children."
Upon learning of the Blood Demon's presence, everyone recoiled in terror.
The experts from the three major families clustered together as they struggled to control their fear. Family members huddled behind their elders, and some even weighed their chances of fleeing.
Amos nodded respectfully. "Ah, the legendary Blood Demon. I've heard so much about you. Now that I see you in person, your reputation is clearly well-deserved. Even just your presence demands my utmost respect."
"Nice flattery, brat. I like you," Blood Demon said with a sinister smile.
"Thank you. I'm truly honored by your praise," Amos replied with a sycophantic grin. It was in stark contrast to his usual demeanor.
No one laughed at him, though. They found it perfectly understandable.
For these reclusive families, Blood Demon was like a nightmare come to life. Survival was paramount, and if that meant flattering or groveling, so be it.
But everyone knew that Blood Demon couldn't be satisfied with mere flattery. The entire clan could face total annihilation if he felt disrespected or displeased.
Cleef also flattered him. "Esteemed Blood Demon, may I know what brings you to our humble abode?"
Everyone held their breath, and their eyes fixed on Blood Demon.
Blood Demon licked his dry lips. "I was just out for a stroll and ended up here. What's the matter? You all don't seem thrilled to see me?"
"Of course not!" Robert quickly responded. "It's an honor to have you here."
Amos, Cleef, and the others hurriedly agreed.
Blood Demon's gaze landed on Amelia. "She looks quite appealing. Come here, and let me take a closer look."
Amelia's face drained of color as fear set in. She hesitated but knew she couldn't refuse, so she slowly walked over.
He grabbed her and immediately pulled her into his embrace. He then pinched her cheek. " Such a tender, sweet face. I like it. We'll find a nice spot later where I can truly enjoy myself with you."
"Please spare me, sir. I beg you," she cried, dropping to her knees and sobbing uncontrollably.
Blood Demon's face was a grotesque mask of wrinkles and scars, marred by a deep scar running from his forehead to his chin.
His menacing appearance was enough to strike terror into anyone, and Amelia was no exception. The thought of being in his grasp made anyone's blood run cold.C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.
He was known for his extreme cruelty, as he took sadistic pleasure in torturing women. Those he set his sights on rarely survived more than three days. They were tortured and ultimately had their blood drained completely.
Blood Demon's expression instantly darkened. "You're so ungrateful. Don't you see how fortunate you are that I'm interested in you? Don't push your luck. If you offended me, I'll annihilate your entire family!"
The Claude family was panicking, and Robert shouted, "Amelia, are you trying to get us all killed? You need to obey and serve our esteemed guest properly."
Despair hit her like a tidal wave. She contemplated ending her own life, but the thought of her family stopped her from doing so.
Blood Demon smirked with satisfaction. "That's more like it. I'll ensure you're well taken care of as long as I'm pleased. With a pretty mouth like yours, just kneel here and make me feel good." He shamelessly unbuckled his belt.
"No. Please stop!" Amelia begged, shaking her head frantically. She had steeled herself for the worst, but his bold demand for such a public humiliation was beyond anything she had imagined.
With a savage swing, Blood Demon slapped her hard across the face. His eyes burned with a dangerous red light. "I've got a short fuse. If you make me angry again, I'll kill your entire family!"
Amelia's spirit was crushed upon hearing that.
The members of the three major families seethed with fury, but their fear silenced their protests.
