"This... this..."
The High Priest was so anxious that he broke out in a cold sweat, "This lowly one does not know either, Sect Hierarch--bah, Blood Sword Heavenly Monarch, that Great Demon, simply handed the Blood Soul Pearls directly to us, instructing us to develop branches in the surrounding cities by turning the ignorant commoners into believers, thereby extracting their soul origins."
"Yes," added the protector hurriedly, "After that Great Demon gave us the Blood Soul Pearls, he told us how to control the Blood Spirit Corpses, and then he constantly disappeared, only periodically reappearing to demand the Blood Soul Pearls from us, and if the extracted soul origins were insufficient, he would severely punish us."
Ling Feng, supporting his chin, thought silently: It seems Despicable Donkey guessed right, the reason Blood Sword Heavenly Monarch wants to extract so many soul origins is to repair that Demon Sword.
