The Great Kun belonged to an ancient beast clan. Unlike the Golden Crow that had been summoned by Christina, this Great Kun could be considered an adult within the world of the beasts.

He was aware of a lot more secrets as compared to that Golden Crow.

When Erica's aura collided with Azaroth's aura, the Great Kun instantly recognized the threat Azaroth posed to them. The danger he posed to Erica was far larger than he had anticipated.historical

He had further realized that the Spiritual Pressure Azaroth had created wasn't some sort of trick but actually his pure power. He wasn't a paper tiger, but a true dragon!

Thus, the Great Kun instantly informed Erica that she shouldn't try to infuriate him any further. He truly wasn't sure of their chances of victory against Azaroth.

"If I state it here, it will decide your battle against the Night Mountain Sect. Are you sure?" Azaroth finally responded to Erica's question with a question of his own.

He had noticed that she had retracted her aura and was trying her best to calm down.

His question instantly provoked Erica, and she stared at him with a furious look on her face. It had been a long time since someone had actually threatened her like that.

Fortunately, Erica's husband roared out, "How arrogant! I will beat you until your mother can't recognize your face! Did you think you are amazing just because you caught us off-guard with that spiritual attack?!"

This caught the attention of all the elders, and they no longer focused on Azaroth's words. They all shouted at him because they felt that Azaroth's attack had been too despicable!

He had actually sneak attacked them in the meeting hall, in front of the Sect Mistress. Moreover, he had even disrespected the Sect Mistress by not answering her question.

In their minds, this was more than enough to warrant death! However, some elders didn't want to directly kill Azaroth.

They wanted to ruin his face and cripple his cultivation. They wanted him to live in that condition for some time. Only then would they feel satisfied.

Azaroth couldn't be bothered to respond to the words by that man. His eyes were focused on Erica as he had a triumphant smirk on his face.

When Erica saw that smirk, she was instantly angry. She was convinced that this man knew something regarding the Great Kun.

Moreover, it wasn't a suspicion. He was sure of it and had already threatened her of the consequences.

If she still couldn't understand what she had to do, she wouldn't be Erica.

"Silence!" Her voice thundered in the meeting hall immediately.

Erica's voice immediately turned all the elders silent, including her husband. They all looked at her with some curious looks as they wondered why she was going against them.

They were trying to protect the dignity of the Black Lake Sect. If they didn't do this, these outsiders would have ruined the dignity of the great Black Lake Sect.

Erica ignored the facial expressions of her elders and focused on Azaroth, "..You shouldn't have sneak attacked them all! Even though you come from afar to assist us in this great battle against the Night Mountain Sect, this is an unforgivable offense."

"All of you leave. I need to forgive this offender for that sneak attack," Erica ordered all the individuals in the meeting hall.

Azaroth's smirk vanished from his face as he showed a serious and grave expression. When Erica's husband and the other elders saw that look on Azaroth's face, they were quite satisfied.

Erica's husband knew just how brutal his wife was. It wasn't the first time she was personally punishing someone.

There were a few elders who even sent pitiful glances towards Azaroth.

Azaroth's subordinates couldn't contain themselves any longer and were about to speak up when suddenly, Azaroth opened his mouth and voiced out, "Very well. I was indeed in the wrong."

He turned towards Tiana and ordered her, "Take them outside."

Tiana was quite worried about Azaroth and wanted to say something, but the cold and serious expression on his face prevented her from saying anything.

Even Christina left the meeting hall. She originally wanted to tell her mother to take it easy on Azaroth but decided against it.

However, the expression on her mother's face seemed as if she was ready to kill anyone who annoyed her right now. Christina naturally didn't dare to give any sort of advice to her mother.

She could only look at Azaroth and sigh.

Once all individuals had left, Azaroth stared at Erica and spoke with an amused tone, "So, you will punish me? Should I start screaming?"

Erica heard that mocking tone and clenched her fists while staring in Azaroth's direction. All that initial favorability she had because of his appearance was gone.

"What do you know?!" She asked with a bone-chilling voice.

Azaroth's expression turned serious as he spoke solemnly, "It seems that no other ears are listening right now. Just to confirm your terror, I will reveal it then. The Great Kun. That Beast Spirit you possess, it's that of the Great Kun. Do I need to say anything else to confirm your suspicions?"

Erica's eyes widened slightly. She had expected him to truly know her secret, but for him to say it with such a confident and serious tone just shook her greatly.

She had tried her best to keep it a secret. Yet, it had somehow leaked. She didn't know how, but it had happened.

"How did you know?!" She asked with a slightly calmer tone.

She now realized that Azaroth's threat was truly real.

"My sources shouldn't be important. What's important is how you can keep me silent, isn't that right?" Azaroth asked as a small smile appeared on his face. It was a roguish smile that declared he had no intention of telling Erica about his secrets.

Erica also didn't want to play this kind of game for very long. She got straight to the topic, "What do you want?"

"Finally, we are on the same page. You don't need to worry too much. Other than the two of us, no one else knows of this secret," This was the first thing Azaroth revealed to Erica.

Erica was naturally relieved to hear this fact. She thought that whoever told Azaroth about this had already been killed by him. She had no idea that Azaroth possessed a rare pair of eyes that could easily recognize her spirit.

Suddenly, a solution appeared in her mind, and she slowly relaxed.

At this moment, Azaroth added, "Are you thinking of killing me? Well, try your best. If the beast inside you is wise enough, he must have warned you to not fight me. If not, then you can try and kill me. The results will surprise you, though."

This confident tone startled Erica, and she wondered whether he had listened to her conversation with the Great Kun.

However, she rejected that thought. This was basically impossible. The Great Kun had conveyed its words through its Spiritual Fluctuations directly to her Soul.

Azaroth couldn't hear any of that. He must have prepared this warning to intimidate her.

Erica was actually right about this. Azaroth truly hadn't heard her conversation with the Great Kun. He had merely given her a warning again to ensure she wouldn't make any stupid moves.

"As I asked earlier, what do you want?" Erica asked with an even calmer tone.

"My demands will be simple enough. In fact, you will be more than delighted to accept them.. After all, my motive to come here was to assist the Black Lake Sect in this battle against the Night Mountain Sect," Azaroth spoke.
