Chapter 859 - 858: Blood Sacrifice of the Demon Cultivator
Yusuf Zuck originally thought that after he had recruited Drake Murphy, his plan would quickly be implemented, and his team would rapidly grow stronger.
However, seven or eight days after Drake Murphy left, there was no sign of the seven Protectors coming over. Drake Murphy seemed to have vanished from the face of the earth, out of contact and without any news.
Yusuf Zuck didn’t know what had gone wrong, nor did he know whether the fact that Drake Murphy had become his demon slave had been discovered. Therefore, over these past seven or eight days, his heart had grown increasingly heavy.
The situation in Jizhou City was very calm. The Green Emperor made no moves, and the vast Cangmang Mountain in the south had been occupied by foreign Earth Immortals. Ephraim Rocha brought over a thousand of his followers to settle in Jizhou City, and many houses near the Zhou family residence were bought for the Demon Cultivators to live in.
Furthermore, starting two days ago, Yusuf Zuck’s right eyelid began to twitch uncontrollably, and it had continued to do so for two days straight.
An old saying goes, "Left eyelid twitching brings wealth; right eyelid twitching brings calamity." Therefore, he had not left Chicken Mountain these two days, nor had he let anyone in his family go out, while all kinds of great demons outside were probing for any pieces of information.
On the morning of the ninth day, Ephraim Rocha brought a small demon up the mountain. This small demon was also at the Feather Transformation Stage, and his face was currently pale.
"My Lord, Ephraim Rocha deserves death!" As soon as Ephraim Rocha saw Yusuf Zuck, he knelt down.
"What happened?" Yusuf Zuck’s bad premonition grew stronger.
"Ephraim Rocha deserves death," Ephraim Rocha said with shame. "Since receiving a message from Khalil Schroeder a few days ago, I led all my followers north along the East Coast, and even then, many small demons expressed their reluctance to come here."
