Apart from helping to nurture Cheng Tianhao and the other servants, which allowed them to obtain huge gains, his other goal was to hide his brilliance through Cheng Tianhao and the others.
Although he did not appear on the rankings from the beginning to the end, when he left this place, the blood beasts could not be hidden. It would definitely attract everyone’s attention. He had to make sure that he was not noticed.
The best way was to increase the attention of Cheng Tianhao and the other servants.
As long as Cheng Tianhao and the others’ blood beasts reached the maturity stage, then he could say that his blood beast reached the maturity stage because Cheng Tianhao had helped him.
This way, even if the people outside saw that his blood beast had reached the maturity stage, they would be amazed by Cheng Tianhao’s strength. They would not pay too much attention to Xiao Shi. After all, Xiao Shi’s identity to the outside world was only a handguard of Cheng Tianhao. They would only think that Xiao Shi was lucky to have Cheng Tianhao’s help.
There were less than ten days left until the end of the game. Until now, there were only one-tenth of the participants left.
Under the many high-level resources provided by Xiao Shi, the blood beasts of Cheng Tianhao and the others had all begun to improve greatly.
Soon, Cheng Tianhao successfully reached the top of the rankings. Then, with Xiao Shi’s help, his blood beast had reached maturity in one go!
Originally, according to Xiao Shi’s plan, not only did he have to raise Cheng Tianhao’s blood beast to the maturity stage, but he also had to raise Meng Que and the others’ blood beasts to the maturity stage.
The more mature blood beasts there were, the less attention he would attract.
However, he realized that this was unrealistic. This game venue did not have so many resources. It was already very rare for two mature blood beasts to appear.
Under normal circumstances, there would only be one mature Blood Beast born here at most, or there would not be any mature Blood Beast born at all. In the rules of this game, the winner did not have to raise the blood beast until it matured to be considered a victory.
If he wanted to raise the Blood Beast to maturity, it did not just depend on one’s strength. At the same time, it also depended on luck. Even the final victor might not be able to raise the blood beast to maturity.
The reason why Xiao Shi could raise the blood beast to maturity so smoothly was because he could drop resources through killing. However, even if he killed everyone here, it was still not enough for a third mature blood beast to appear.
The resources needed to raise a blood beast to maturity were extremely huge.
Therefore, Xiao Shi chose to stop while he was ahead. After raising everyone’s blood beasts to a certain extent, he did not let them continue to improve.
At the same time, Xiao Shi did not carry out any more killings. Now that he had the Emperor Equipment of the Qi Martial Realm, he no longer needed Qi Martial Realm items. If he killed everyone here, there would definitely be more trouble after leaving.
Although he had Cheng Tianhao and the others to replace him, if this matter blew up, even with Cheng Tianhao and the others’ identities, they would not be able to cover it up.
After all, this Tiandou Province was not up to the Swift Shadow Palace to decide.
Before leaving, Xiao Shi, Cheng Tianhao, and the others unified their words after leaving. Cheng Tianhao and the others also knew that Xiao Shi had never liked to expose himself in front of others. He was used to hiding behind the scenes. They all accepted Xiao Shi’s light.
The only thing that made Xiao Shi hesitate was how to deal with Liang Su. Cheng Tianhao and the others were his servants. Naturally, they would not betray him.
But this Liang Su might tell others about him. After all, he had seen him attack before. He also knew that he was the true mastermind behind raising the Blood Beast to maturity. The best way to deal with him was to kill him.
This would ensure that nothing went wrong.
However, Xiao Shi felt that doing this was a little like kicking someone to the curb when they’ve outlived their usefulness. Liang Su had been helping him find people dutifully. He really couldn’t bring himself to kill him now.
“Unfortunately, there’s a limit to the number of Lunar Seals. I can’t form more Lunar Seals for the time being.” Xiao Shi frowned. Otherwise, Liang Su would be a good choice for a servant.
Just as he was feeling troubled, a hint of determination flashed across Liang Su’s eyes. Although many people’s impression and impression of Liang Su were that he was a little silly, in fact, Liang Su was not stupid. Instead, he was very smart.
From the moment he saw how extraordinary Xiao Shi was, he immediately recognized him as a big shot and hugged Xiao Shi tightly. Although he had sided with Xiao Shi, he could also clearly feel that Xiao Shi treated him differently from Cheng Tianhao and the others.
In comparison, he was like an outsider.
This made him extremely envious of Cheng Tianhao and the others. He also wanted to become Xiao Shi’s servant like them.
But he knew, in this chaotic world, all oaths and promises were unreliable. It was impossible for Xiao Shi to believe him just because he had sworn an oath. If he wanted to be treated the same as Cheng Tianhao and the others, he had to take out something that could make Xiao Shi trust him.
Thinking of this, Liang Su immediately stopped hesitating. With a low growl, he extended his right hand and pierced it into his heart. Then, he grabbed a ball of white flames from his heart. This ball of white flames was thumping in his hand, and it was actually at the same frequency as his heartbeat.
When he took out the white flame from his body, his entire face turned extremely pale. Liang Su’s face was filled with determination. He raised the white flame in his hand high and handed it to Xiao Shi. “Boss, this is my Life Fire! There’s a ball of Life Fire on every disciple of our Extreme Fire Sect! Life Fire is related to our cultivation, our lives, and everything else. Now, I’m willing to give my Life Fire to you!”
Liang Su’s words stunned Xiao Shi, Cheng Tianhao, and the others. Xiao Shi looked at the Life Fire in Liang Su’s hand. He could clearly sense the life force contained in this Life Fire. The other party handed the Life Fire to him. It was equivalent to handing over his life to him.
If he wanted to harm him, he only needed to extinguish the Life Fire. Even though the two sides were far apart, Liang Su could be instantly killed.
To a certain extent, the other party’s Life Fire was the same as the Lunar Seal formed by Xiao Shi on Cheng Tianhao and the others.
Xiao Shi looked at Liang Su. He could feel the other party’s sincerity. Coupled with this person’s performance recently, Xiao Shi was silent for a while. He raised his hand and took Liang Su’s Life Fire.
Liang Su was extremely excited about this. He knew that as long as the other party took over his Life Fire, he would be able to become his loyal and reliable servant like Cheng Tianhao and the others.
“Since you’re willing to be my servant, you have to know my style of doing things first.” Xiao Shi was about to remind Liang Su not to reveal his situation outside.
However, Liang Su spoke first. “I know. Boss, you like to hide behind the scenes. Don’t worry, I won’t leak any information about you outside.”
Xiao Shi was stunned. He did not expect Liang Su to be so perceptive.
Through his previous instructions to Cheng Tianhao and the others, he had already clearly deduced his style of doing things. This also made Cheng Tianhao and the others take a few more glances at Liang Su. They all felt a sense of danger.
As Xiao Shi’s servants, Liang Su, on the other hand, understood their master better than them. This was not good for them. Especially Cheng Tianhao. Now, he was most valued by Xiao Shi. He felt that Meng Que and the others were no threat to him. But now, he felt danger from Liang Su.
“Boss, actually, I think there are some loopholes in the excuse you discussed with the outside world just now. Actually, after we leave, we can explain it like this.” Liang Su quickly offered the excuse he had prepared.
The excuse he came up with was undoubtedly more convincing. This made Xiao Shi very satisfied with this new servant.
Cheng Tianhao and the others felt even more threatened!
“This guy… could it be that he was born to be a servant? He’s too familiar with
it!!”
