Chapter 4694: Sacrifice Agreement

Everyone around the altar was also shocked by Nie Tian's momentum, and no one spoke for a long time.

"Hey, young man, come with me."

After a long time, the old man suddenly sighed, and then, with the help of several young men, he staggered down the altar.

Nie Tian's face was slightly gloomy, and he jumped off the altar holding the little girl.

"Elder, what are you going to do?"

As soon as the old man walked down the altar, a middle-aged man who looked quite authoritative glared at Nie Tian fiercely, and then helped the old man and asked.

"The blood demon sacrifice has been destroyed. What's the use of us resenting him?"

The old man sighed again, his eyes swept over Nie Tian, ​​and then looked up to the sky for a long time, lamenting: "Maybe, this is God's will."

"This..."

The middle-aged man was so frightened that he couldn't speak when he saw this.

Is there no hope for their town, and they can only accept their fate?

"Old sir, I don't know what the blood demon you are talking about is, or who it is?"

At this time, Nie Tian came over and said, "But I can promise you that I will get rid of the blood demon for you."

The old man looked at Nie Tian, ​​felt the tenacity in the latter's eyes, and couldn't help but feel warm in his heart, and said, "Young man, let's go back first."

Jiuye Town, located at the foot of Qingmian Mountain, has beautiful scenery and rich resources, but the total population is not tens of thousands.

A long time ago, Jiuye Town was very prosperous, and the population reached more than 100,000 at its peak.

But later, at some point, an ancient blood demon suddenly appeared in Jiuye Town.

At the beginning, the blood demon only appeared every full moon and swallowed people alive.

Later, the blood demon actually came out every day, and every time it would swallow and kill dozens or hundreds of people.

As a result, the people of Jiuye Town were panicked and could not rest.

In order to stabilize people's hearts, the lord of Jiuye Town paid a lot of money to find someone to hunt the blood demon.

But those who came to hunt the blood demon were either swallowed by the blood demon or scared away directly.

As time went by, the population of Jiuye Town became fewer and fewer, and it was about to become a dead city.

Until one day, a man who claimed to be the Blood Demon Messenger appeared and told the Lord of Jiuye Town that as long as a Blood Demon sacrifice was held every year and a young child was offered to the Blood Demon, the Blood Demon would not come out to do evil again.

Although the Lord of Jiuye Town was skeptical, he still held the Blood Demon sacrifice according to the Blood Demon Messenger's words.

The magical thing is that after the Blood Demon Sacrifice, the Blood Demon really did not appear again.

After that, the Blood Demon Sacrifice became the most important thing in Jiuye Town every year, and it has continued to this day.

Jiuye Town, Wang Family.

"Is that Blood Demon Messenger still in the town?"

In the lobby, Nie Tian frowned and asked after listening to the old man's story about the origin of the Blood Demon Sacrifice.

He had a strong feeling that the so-called ancient blood demon must be related to this Blood Demon Messenger.

"In the first few years, the Blood Envoy personally arranged the Blood Demon Sacrifice, but after the Blood Demon Sacrifice became stable, he stopped coming."

Wang Jiucheng, the elder of the Wang family in Jiuye Town, recalled and said, "It has been decades since the Blood Envoy appeared."

"Then according to the elders, will the Blood Envoy appear after the Blood Demon Sacrifice was disrupted this time?"

Nie Tian asked meaningfully with a twitch of his lips.

"This..."

Wang Jiucheng was stunned and looked a little flustered, saying, "He should appear."

Obviously, he did not want the Blood Envoy to show up.

Because once the Blood Envoy shows up, it means that the Blood Demon is very likely to cause trouble again.

"That's good."

Nie Tian smiled playfully and said, "I want to see who this Blood Envoy is, and how he can come up with the method of sacrificing children."

Wang Jiucheng looked at Nie Tian, ​​and his eyes flickered.

For a moment, he suddenly had an illusion that perhaps the young man in front of him could really solve the problem of the Blood Demon.

But then, he gave up the idea.

The ancient blood demon is so powerful that no matter how strong Nie Tian is, he will never be able to fight against it.

"Elder, the elders of the Zhang family and the Li family are here, and there are people from the town lord's mansion."

At this time, a man who looked like a servant ran into the hall in a panic, saying breathlessly.

"Let them come to the hall."

Wang Jiucheng's eyes flashed with panic, but more of helplessness, and sighed.

"Elder, who are these people?"

Nie Tian frowned when he saw Wang Jiucheng's reaction.

"You will know when they come."

Wang Jiucheng shook his head helplessly, looking depressed.

A moment later, two old men, one tall and one short, walked into the hall angrily, followed by a young man in gorgeous clothes.

"Wang Jiucheng, what on earth are you thinking about doing in the Wang family? How can such a big thing as the blood demon sacrifice go wrong?"

The short and fat old man was the elder of the Li family. He was furious. As soon as he came in, he pointed at Wang Jiucheng's nose and yelled.

"Brother Wang, the Blood Demon Sacrifice is related to the survival of Jiuye Town. How can you let an outsider destroy the sacrifice?"

The tall and thin old man is the elder of the Zhang family. His tone is relatively calm, but his face is as cold as that of the elder of the Li family.

Wang Jiucheng looked helpless, his eyes swept over the elders of the Zhang family and the Li family, and finally fell on the young man in gorgeous clothes.

"Old Wang, the Blood Demon Sacrifice is a matter jointly planned by our town master's mansion and your three families. The four families take turns to be responsible."

The voice of the young man Chen Pingli in gorgeous clothes was calm, and it was hard to tell whether he was happy or angry, but he was extremely indifferent. He said, "This year's blood demon sacrifice was originally the responsibility of your Wang family. Since something went wrong, the Wang family will naturally be responsible to the end."

"Young Town Master, what do you mean by this?"

Wang Jiucheng's eyes sank slightly, and he was very surprised.

Chen Pingli was the son of the Lord of Jiuye Town, so the people in the town called him the Young Town Master.

Moreover, Chen Pingli was engaged to Wang Jiucheng's third daughter.

So he thought that Chen Pingli would definitely speak for him.

Who would have thought that Chen Pingli would push all the responsibilities to the Wang family as soon as he opened his mouth, with an attitude of watching the fun.

"Wang Jiucheng, don't you understand what the young town master said?"

Without waiting for Chen Pingli to speak, the elder of the Li family said directly: "This time, the blood demon sacrifice was messed up by your Wang family. The responsibility must naturally be borne by the Wang family. It has nothing to do with our families."

"Brother Wang, what the young town master and Brother Li said is right. Since the Wang family is at fault, if the blood envoy blames it, of course the Wang family will bear the consequences."

Then, the elder of the Zhang family also spoke, saying coldly.

"You...you are really moral!"

Wang Jiucheng was so angry at the three people that his old face turned red and he almost vomited blood.

At the beginning, the four families planned the blood demon sacrifice, and it was true that the four families took turns to be responsible.

But at the same time, the four families also agreed that if there were any problems with the sacrifice, the four families would bear it together.

Now, these three families are pushing the responsibility and are very clean.

"I was the one who destroyed the blood demon sacrifice. It has nothing to do with the Wang family."

At this time, a firm voice sounded. It was Nie Tian who stood up and said calmly: "All consequences will be borne by me alone!"
