Chapter 1001 Crescent Moon Whale Pattern
Night Shadow's gaze turned cold. He couldn't believe it at all. Night Shadow walked to the door and looked outside. There were people from the Earthly Fiend Sect everywhere. Even he was being watched the whole time.
People would occasionally come over and peek inside. Even if they saw Yan Ying moving, they wouldn't say a word. They would just report the situation to Yan Jue in detail.
Night Shadow ignored Xiao Shang and left without saying another word.
He had just stepped out when Yan Jue came looking for him. "I heard you beat up Prince Xiao."
Night Shadow said coldly, "He wronged me back then, and I'm just paying him back some interest. If the sect leader agrees to let me kill him, I will kill him immediately."
He added, "I know you don't believe me, but it doesn't matter whether you believe me or not. I just hope you remember that we will avenge our parents together in the future. This is the only reason I chose to stay in the Earthly Fiend Sect."
Yan Jue smiled and patted his shoulder. "Don't worry, I will avenge my parents. Now we all have the same goal: to take revenge on the Great Zhou royal family. But killing just one emperor is meaningless. If we're going to do something, let's do something big."
Nightshade asked, "What do you mean?"
Yan Jue sneered, "What do you think of the idea of uprooting the Xie clan and making them childless?"
Night Shadow said, "You want to rebel, seize the Xie family's empire, and become the emperor of the Great Zhou yourselves."
Yan Jue smiled without saying a word. There were some things he didn't want to tell Ye Ying because his godfather had said that Ye Ying was untrustworthy.
The Earthly Fiends Sect wants to turn the entire world into their territory, not just the Great Zhou Dynasty.
He never thought of avenging his biological parents, because he didn't even know them. Why would he sacrifice his life to avenge two people who were already dead?
His adoptive father had not only raised him but also recognized his talent; the person he should repay was his adoptive father.
A scream came from afar. Night Shadow said, "Does the sect leader also want to turn Lord Xiao into a member of the Earthly Fiend Sect? Is he tattooing a whale totem on him?"
"My godfather said that the man surnamed Xiao is a promising talent, and he plans to train him to be a second-in-command like Si Ci, or even have him take over Si Ci's position," Yan Jue said.
Upon hearing this, Ye Ying realized that he couldn't save Xiao Yu.
Yan Jue pointed to the human head hanging in the distance and warned, "Don't do anything to betray the sect leader, or that will be your fate. I'm only warning you because you're my own brother."
Yan Jue continued, “In the distance hangs the head of Si Ci. His head attracted many carnivorous crows. The crows first ate his eyeballs, then pecked at his entire face. In just a few days, only a skeleton remained. The skulls in Xichuan are all works of art meticulously crafted by crows, so I don’t want my own brother to become a work of art as well.”
All Ye Ying knew was that Si Ci had left with Xiao Yu that day, and he was doomed because Si Ci hadn't died on the spot like the other assassins, so he would have to be fed to the crows when he returned.
Surprisingly, Si Ci only survived with Xiao Yu. He did nothing to betray the Di Sha Sect, yet he was still killed by Yan Dinghai.
Decades ago, Si Ci was also a member of the Shenyin Camp. Yan Dinghai and their father, Zhou Bingyi, also had their own code names and had both served the Shenyin Camp. However, Si Ci died at the hands of Yan Dinghai decades later.
Nightshade was a man of few words; he used his taciturnity as a disguise. He suddenly asked, "If one day I do something wrong, will you watch your godfather cut off my head and feed it to the crows?"
Yan Jue said emotionlessly, "Yes, I will personally cut off your head and throw it to the crows to fill their bellies, so you'd better behave yourself."
Ye Ying wanted to kill Yan Jue with his own hands. He would rather not have this brother living in the world, so as not to let him harm others and himself. He said, "If Yan Dinghai asked me to cut off your head, Yan Jue, I would kill you without hesitation."
Yan Jue was frightened by his cold gaze; he was no match for Ye Ying.
Nightshade left without saying another word.
Yan Jue suddenly looked at the human head hanging in the distance, and he even imagined what it would be like if his own head were cut off and hung there.
Yan Jueqing couldn't help but shiver, thinking to himself: Would his adoptive father treat him the same way he treated Si Ci?
He smiled coldly. No, his godfather had always treated him like his own son since he was a child.

Xiao Yu and Feng Qingyu were also forcibly tattooed with crescent moon-shaped whale patterns, leaving only the two women.
Yan Dinghai trained many tattoo artists around him. Anyone who couldn't tattoo the Earthly Fiend Sect's totem properly would die, so these tattoo artists received a lot of training in private.
They stared intently at the two women. They had tattooed whale totems on women before, but this time it was a little different.
Gongsun Lan and Qin Yunyan were truly terrified. The ropes binding them had been untied, and Xiao Yu and Feng Qingyu were also tortured and lying on the ground.
Gongsun Lan held a dagger in her hand, pointing it at Yan Dinghai, and said, "If you dare come any closer, I'll die right here in front of you."
Qin Yunyan was terrified and her eyes filled with tears. "I'd rather die than have someone embroider my body. So that's how those skulls were tortured to death in their previous lives! Jiang Fenghua, where are you? You brought me to Xichuan to find a way to be reborn. Come out and save us! Aren't you very powerful? Come out now!"
Yan Dinghai sneered, "Everyone in the world, regardless of gender, must become a member of the Earthly Fiend Sect. Only those with whale-patterned totems will be protected by the Earthly Fiend Sect. Otherwise, I will have no choice but to cut off your heads and feed them to the crows outside."
Xiao Yu said angrily, "What kind of skill is it for a bunch of grown men to bully a weak woman? If you're so capable, give me a few more tattoos on your body."
Feng Qingyu never expected that even a horse could stumble. When had he ever been bullied like this? At this moment, he had no choice but to bow his head.
He crawled up to Gongsun Lan and shielded her behind him. "If you like tattoos like this, then get a few more tattoos on me. I like this kind of tattoo. The design is unique, small and exquisite, and quite cute. It would be best if you could get dragons and phoenixes tattooed on my arms, back, and legs. That would make me look more imposing."
Yan Dinghai stared intently at the blood-stained tattoos on his body. "One is enough. No dragon or phoenix can match its imposing presence. The size of a whale..."
To buy time, Feng Qingyu added, "How big can it be? Can a pot fit it in and stew it? How many cups of wine can it hold? This little broken half-circle, so incomplete, how big can it be? It's utterly ugly."
Before Feng Qingyu could finish speaking, Yan Dinghai was clearly angry, as if he was unhappy that his most sacred totem had been belittled.
His eyes were filled with murderous intent.
He then added, “As long as you all pledge your loyalty to the Earthly Fiends Sect, I will train you well. It’s not your fault that you don’t know the world’s largest whale; it’s just that you’re too short-sighted. In the future, I will let you all see how big a whale is, that it can swallow mountains and rivers.”
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yu wondered if the leader of the Earthly Fiend Sect was overly worshipful of whales.
He knew a little about it, and when he thought back to the pattern that Jiang Fenghua had personally delivered to him, he couldn't help but find it a bit funny.
At this moment, he suddenly had an idea and said sarcastically, "Don't you think your tattoo artists' skills are not good? I don't see any majestic aura. They look like a crescent moon bitten off by a celestial dog. They are not perfect at all."
