Chapter 30.

The Beast Cult had always been a hidden danger to him, and if he wanted to live comfortably in this place, he had to get rid of the hidden danger.

After Zhou An asked these words, his hand with the knife remained steady, resting on Cook Liu’s neck.

Cook Liu’s eyes, however, lit up slightly, he knew that there was a possibility of a talk and said, “This matter also has to start with the Blood Shadow Sect, do you know that the Blood Shadow Sect has a big conspiracy?”

Zhou An shook his head, indicating that he did not know.

“The Blood Shadow Sect’s ability is very strange, it’s equivalent to an auxiliary ability, anyone who practiced this ability would be able to enhance themselves through shadows.” Chef Liu narrated.

“The rules of this sect are quite loose, and it’s made up of people from all parts of the Jianghu.”

“It was supposed to be a good thing, but the sect master has a huge conspiracy.”

“In the Blood Shadow Sect there is a treasure called the Shadow Streamer, this thing was built by the Sect Master over many years, and the efficacy that the Shadow Streamer possesses is to control the people of the Blood Shadow Sect.”

“Anyone who has practiced the Blood Shadow Sect’s techniques, they will detach a strand of shadow and enter the Shadow Streamer, they don’t know it, but once they need it, they will be controlled.”

Hearing this, Zhou An’s brows furrowed slightly, “What does this have to do with the Beast Cult?”

After speaking for half a day, it was all about the Blood Shadow Sect’s conspiracy.

But there was not a single connection with the Beast Cult.

What Zhou An desperately wanted to know now was that there was news about the Beast Cult.

As for the rest, he was only slightly interested.

“Don’t be in a hurry, listen to me slowly tell you.”

Chef Liu waved his hand, telling Zhou An not to interrupt him, and continued, “I inadvertently obtained this news, and deeply felt that a great man could not be subjected to others, so I stole the Shadow Streamer.”

“Utilizing the Shadow Streamer’s ability, I released myself from control, but the Blood Shadow Sect’s people found out and sent a large number of experts after me.”

“There was nothing I could do but flee to Anding County, where the Beast Sect’s Sectmaster was once a close friend of mine, and I was the one who introduced him to join the Blood Shadow Sect.”

“I had thought that he would shelter me, but I didn’t expect that he would sell me out in a turn of events, and the corpses that you found not long ago were the people from the Blood Shadow Sect that he had lured over.”

“That’s why I said that both of us have the same purpose, because we both want to deal with the Beast Cult, as the saying goes, it’s not a gentleman who doesn’t report a grudge, and I’m not a gentleman.”

Having said that, Zhou An also heard the finer details of the matter.

The general situation could be briefly summarized.

It was probably that after escaping here, he was sold and then almost got shaded.

“Zhou An, you see that we both have the same purpose, so you put down your knife first, and the two of us will slowly discuss in detail how to deal with the Blood Shadow Sect.”

Chef Liu raised his finger and gently touched the long knife, meaning that he could put it down.

He had thought that Zhou An would listen to what he had to say, but he did not expect that not only did the long knife not drop, but it instead came closer to his neck.

A complete chill enveloped his heart, causing Cook Liu to feel danger.

Cook Liu raised his head, his brows furrowed, “You still don’t believe me?”

Zhou An revealed a smile, his other hand raised and held up two fingers, “Two questions.”

“The first one, why don’t you hand over the Shadow Streamer to the Zhen Gui Si?”

“You’re wandering alone at the end of the world, and you’re worried every day, why don’t you tell the Zhen Gui Si the truth of what happened, I believe that with the energy of the Zhen Gui Si, it’s not a problem to deal with a Blood Shadow Sect.”

“Secondly, since you’ve been discovered, why do you still want to stay here, do you want to deal with the Beast Cult alone?”

The two questions were asked, and Chef Liu fell into silence.

Zhou An had carefully analyzed all that Liu Chef had said just now.

These two questions he asked were definitely a big problem.

If he couldn’t explain them, Zhou An would have to be the hard-hearted one.

Cook Liu sighed and did not say anything, instead looking up at the bright moon in the sky.

At this moment, the bright moon had already traveled past the alley, and the light of the alley was fading and becoming dark.

Underneath Chef Liu’s feet, a black shadow suddenly surfaced and wrapped his entire body in an instant.

Liu Chef’s height was shrouded in the black shadow, steeply pulling up into a height of two meters, filled with a sense of oppression.

Above his right hand, the black shadow coalesced into a long knife.

The shadow had no five senses, but Zhou An was able to clearly feel the gaze.

“Pissed off?” Zhou An was not surprised and said slowly.

“I have a guess, I don’t know if it’s right.”

“You say.” Chef Liu’s voice came out from the shadows like muffled thunder.

Zhou An said, “The Blood Shadow Sect doesn’t have the grand conspiracy you said, you did steal the Blood Shadow Sect’s treasure, but offered it to the Beast Sect’s Sectmaster.”

“The Sect Master must have other plots in mind when he placed you within the Yamen, it should be pure coincidence that you were discovered this time, or the Blood Shadow Sect’s people used special methods to know your location.”

Cook Liu sighed.

“Your guess is really accurate.”

He did not deny it, but boldly admitted it down.

“Zhou An, I appreciate you, I feel admiration for your serious attitude, join the Beast Cult, become a part of us, we can do greater things.”

“In a person’s life, apart from fame and fortune and seeking wealth, it’s nothing but strength, join the Beast Cult and you’ll have everything, why bother being a small constable?”

“As for the previous misunderstanding, Beast Cult can forget about it, I can even seek a very high position for you, how about Protector?”

Protector?

Hearing this, Zhou An couldn’t help but be happy, “I just killed a Protector some time ago, that said, you’re talking to me so much just waiting for the moon to pass, right?”

As the words fell, Zhou An’s long knife slid down towards Chef Liu’s neck, countless knife lights flashed and sliced on the black shadow.

To Zhou An’s surprise, the black shadow shifted for a while, actually dissolving all the knife lights.

“It’s useless, I was waiting for this time, the shadow is an aid that can enhance my own abilities, where there is no light, I am the strongest.”

Chef Liu slowly said, “I’m talking to you so much, it’s to condense the shadow, if you want to walk the rivers and lakes, just one ability is not enough, your blade is very strong, but it lacks a little bit of attack, it can’t break my defense.”

“Give you another chance, join us, I’ll let you live and bring you glory and wealth.”

Cook Liu persuaded, seeming to appreciate Zhou An very much, wanting to pull Zhou An into the Beast Cult.

However, his words were only half spoken when Zhou An made an abnormal movement.

Only to see Zhou An retrieve his long sword, turn around and run towards the side outside the alley.

This scene stunned Cook Liu.

He watched as Zhou An ran to a house in the alley and kicked the door open before burrowing in.

Soon, two loud screams came from the house, but it didn’t take long for the sound to die down.

After a while, Zhou An walked out of the house, carrying an iron pot in his hand.
