Chapter 178
Blood Palace.
A man clad in a blood-red robe lay slumped over a table, his eyes closed. Though his appearance suggested he was in his thirties, his actual age was far greater.
His title: Blood Emperor.
And he is also the Blood God Palace Lord.
He was the father of the Blood Lord, who was killed by the Sword Demon and Danwoo-seong.
“Your Highness, you have arrived.”
Blood Emperor, who had been dozing in the Grand Council Chamber, replied with a weary expression.
“Show him in.”
The Palace Lord’s Hall, painted entirely white, featured only a long strip of red silk laid out in the center. The doors at the end of the hall swung open to the sides, and a young disciple walked alone along the silk path, approaching the Blood Emperor.
Blood Emperor, looking weary, yawned before scrutinizing the approaching man.
He had been informed it was the Grand Master, yet the man held no place in his memory whatsoever.
As the palace gate closed, the demon child instantly closed the distance and stood before the blood ritual, saying,
“Palace Lord, have you been well?”
Blood Master, looking bewildered, peered at the boy’s face and said.
“You certainly seem to be the Grand Master, but I haven’t been in the Ten Thousand Horses Palace for so long that I couldn’t recognize this junior.”
“I am the disciple.”
“Ah…”
The Blood Master rose from his seat and bowed deeply.
“This junior greets the great master Dongja.”
