'Huh? Uncle?'

When Henrick heard how the sect leader Gamos called the old man in front of him, he was shocked for a moment and in the next second, he thought, 'Having an uncle is not an uncommon thing, right?'

​​

"Henrick, this is one of the oldest guardians of the outer sect and unfortunately he is also my uncle,"

While Henrick was in his thoughts, the sect leader Gamos introduced the thin old man to him with a small joke.

"Hello, Elder," As soon as he heard the starting words of the sect leader Gamos, Henrick was shocked to the core because from Elder Eagor he learned a couple of things about the outer sect of the 'Blazing inferno sect'.

Guardians were the most powerful cultivators in the sect that protected the sect from the outsiders and they didn't interfere with the internal matters of the sect.

It was also one of the reasons that no one in the entire sect except for a few powerful cultivators knows about their identity or name.

'I heard that they usually use some titles. I wonder what is his title?'

After thinking about what he knew about the guardians, Henrick was curious about the title of the thin old man in front of him.

Nevertheless, he didn't dare to ask because the guardians prefer to remain low-key all the time.

"Uncle Zerg, this is my disciple Henrick,"

As soon as the sect leader Gamos introduced Henrick to his uncle, he also introduced his disciple to the old man.

'H..he i..is….'

All of a sudden, Uncle Zerg started stammering in his words because he knew that the youth in front of him was a half ancient fire demon.

While stammering in his words, the old man moved towards Henrick with greedy eyes as though he was seeing the highest grade cultivation resource in front of him.

'M..master'

Soon, the old man placed his hands on Henrick which made Henrick worry and without wasting any time, he called his master for help.

"Uncle Zerg, get hold of yourself,"

The sect leader Gamos didn't move from his place but his voice made the old man come to reality which made him embarrassed when he realised that he became greedy for the bloodline.

"Sorry, child"

As soon as he came to reality, the old man pulled back his hands and hurriedly apologized to Henrick before taking a few steps back.

"I..its o..ok"

Henrick was still in a shock and silently thought inside his head, 'Is he into young cultivators? If so, then I need to stay away from him.'

At the same time, Henrick also took a few steps back before warily looked at the thin old man.

"..."

The sect leader Gamos already became speechless with his uncle's actions and after seeing Henrick's actions, he bitterly shook his head.

"Yes, he is the one with the bloodline which we need to temporarily suppress,"

He finished his uncle's unfinished words from earlier and tried to get rid of the awkward atmosphere from the cultivation abode.

"Hm"

Uncle Zerg nodded his head; however, there was an excited look on his face that was impossible to hide.

'Why is he so excited? Is he going to do something to me?'

Looking at the excited expression on the old man's face, Henrick's worries started increasing as he still didn't know why the old man was excited and what he was going to do with him.

'He is already excited this much with the bloodline. What if I reveal the names of his parents? He will definitely die with a heart attack, right?'

The sect leader Gamos chuckled inside his heart as he thought about some things.

"Henrick, no need to worry. All you need to do is close your eyes and we will take care of other things,"

After thinking for a while, the sect leader Gamos looked at Henrick said with a calm expression on his face.

"What are you talking about, Master?"

Henrick became even more shocked after hearing his master's words.

Until now, Henrick thought that if the thin old man had any thought about his body, he had his master to help me; however, with the sect leader Gamos' words, his heart started beating at an incredible rate.

'So, this is it. I am going to be….'

In the end, he thought, it was impossible to escape from two powerful cultivators who were after his body.

"Slap"

'Putong'

All of a sudden, a loud slapping sound resounded in the cultivation abode as Henrick fell to the ground.

"What are you thinking? We only wanted to help you temporarily seal your bloodline and we will not even touch you while doing that. So, keep your dirty thoughts to yourself,"

After slapping Henrick to the ground, the sect leader Gamos harrumphed at his disciple as he explained what they were going to do to him.

'Eek eek'

When the baby fire monkey saw that the sect leader Gamos hit Henrick, it angrily rushed at him.

'With this slap, at least I got to know how much you care about me, Spark'

Henrick glanced at the rushing baby fire monkey with his one eye as he felt warm inside his heart.

"Take this and go back to your sleep,"

However, before the baby fire monkey could reach them, Uncle Zerg threw a red-coloured fruit at it which was caught by the fire monkey.

'Do you think, it's loyalty towards me is for sale?'

Even though he knew that the baby fire monkey didn't have a single percent chance in winning against the sect leader Gamos and the thin old man; however, he was confident that the baby fire monkey would take revenge for him.

'...'

However, when he saw what was happening, he became speechless.

'Munch'

The baby fire munched the red-coloured fruit and within a few bites, it finished eating the fruit before going back to the stone bed to sleep.

'Putong'

He once again fell to the ground with the baby fire monkey's betrayal.
