Realm of the Night God

Second Boss laughed as he removed the restriction barrier blocking the entrance. With the removal of this restriction barrier, a strong Demonic Qi suddenly emanated from the passageway.

Feeling this Demonic Qi, Ye Zhiqiu's expression changed, and his hand that was holding the beer can unconsciously tightened its grip.

However, at this moment, Yang Haoran gently leaned against him and gave him a look, and he then loosened his tight grip on the beer can.

In just a short moment, the strong Demonic Qi had already permeated the entire room and was spreading outwards.

However, this room was still shrouded by a restriction barrier, so Second Boss was not worried that the Demonic Qi would spread throughout the Cloud Mist Manor.

Of course, even if the Demonic Qi in this place did spread throughout the Cloud Mist Manor, he had no worries at all, because the Five Brothers were originally demon hunters, and having Demonic Qi coming out of their residence was a completely normal occurrence.

As for whether someone would sense the Demonic Qi and come to exorcise or seize the demons, in his view, no one would have the courage to do so, after all, the Five Brothers were not to be trifled with, and there was also a demon hunter branch in New Yang City, so this kind of action would be challenging the entire demon hunter association, and only a fool would do such a thing.

Moreover, in all these years, the Five Brothers had never encountered anything similar.

Of course, this was just Second Boss's personal opinion, and he did not know that not only were there people plotting against them, but at this very moment, they were right beside him.

Outside the barrier, Fifth Brother was smoking a cigarette that Yang Haoran had lit for him, and as he watched the four of them enter the room and then the underground passageway, a look of hesitation appeared on his face.

After thinking it over, he took out his mobile phone and dialed a number.

"Fifth Brother, what do you need me for?" a man's voice came through the phone.

"Fourth Brother, come over, I have something I need to discuss with you," Fifth Brother said.

"Can't you just tell me over the phone?" the other party asked puzzledly. This chapter was made possible by the MV_LEMPYR community.

"I can't explain it clearly over the phone, just come over," Fifth Brother responded.

"Alright, I'll be there," the other party said and hung up.

Hanging up the phone, Fifth Brother's expression was somewhat conflicted as he waited for Fourth Brother to arrive.

He didn't tell Fourth Brother the location, but since he hadn't suppressed his own power fluctuations, Fourth Brother would be able to sense where he was.

A few breaths later, the space next to Fifth Brother violently fluctuated, and then a spatial rift opened, and a figure walked out of it.

"Fifth Brother, Fourth Brother is quite busy, why did you have to insist on meeting in person to discuss this?" Fourth Brother asked.

Fifth Brother didn't beat around the bush and directly said, "Second Brother has brought outsiders in."

As he said this, Fifth Brother pointed towards the small room with the open door inside the barrier.

Upon hearing this, Fourth Brother's expression didn't change much.

"I thought it was something major, but what's the big deal if Second Brother brought a few people in? This room is usually where we hold our meetings, but occasionally we'll have important guests come discuss matters, so this room gets used for that too. You know this, so why are you making such a fuss?"

After saying this, Fourth Brother casually tore open a spatial rift, seemingly preparing to leave.

Fifth Brother quickly grabbed hold of Fourth Brother and said anxiously, "Fourth Brother, look closely, Second Brother not only brought outsiders into the room, but he also took them down below!"

Afraid that Fourth Brother hadn't seen it, Fifth Brother pointed towards the room, and Fourth Brother looked on with suspicion, following the direction of Fifth Brother's finger.

Although the passageway was built underground, the two of them weren't too far from the room, and being demon hunters, they possessed powers beyond ordinary people, so their vision was much sharper. At a glance, they could see the open passageway.

Fourth Brother's brow furrowed, and his expression changed.

"What's the situation exactly?" Fourth Brother asked.

Hearing this, Fifth Brother took one last drag of his cigarette, threw away the butt, and explained to Fourth Brother everything he had just witnessed.

After hearing Fifth Brother's explanation, Fourth Brother's brow furrowed even more.

"I did sense a fluctuation in power earlier, and the power belonged to a star spiritual power of a demon hunter, so I thought it was just another demon hunter visiting our manor. With Big Brother not here, Second Brother has been in charge of the manor's affairs, and as long as the visitor wasn't causing trouble, I didn't feel the need to show myself. But Second Brother's actions have left me quite puzzled."

"I was thinking the same thing. When I sensed them arriving here, I felt something was off, so I came to take a look. But I didn't expect Second Brother to disregard my objections and forcibly take the outsiders in."

As Fourth Brother listened to Fifth Brother's explanation, he furrowed his brow, deep in thought. Suddenly, his expression changed slightly as he asked, "You said there was a stunning beauty among them?"

Fifth Brother nodded and said, "Yes, there was indeed a stunning beauty, one I've never seen the likes of before. And Second Brother even said that she would be our future sister-in-law."

"Of the five of us, Second Brother is the one most interested in matters of the opposite sex, and with his arrogant and vain personality, it's not surprising that he would act this way upon encountering a beautiful woman. However, I'm quite curious about their true intentions."

"Fourth Brother said solemnly.

"Should we inform Big Brother about this first? You know Second Brother's personality, if we go and try to stop him now, he'll definitely feel embarrassed, and he'll end up taking it out on you and me," Fifth Brother said.

Fourth Brother nodded and spoke in a deep voice, "Among us Five Brothers, aside from Big Brother, Second Brother is the most powerful. Aside from Big Brother, no one else can really stop Second Brother. If Big Brother doesn't personally get involved, you and I won't be able to handle this, and we'll just end up angering Second Brother. The best course of action is to notify Big Brother and let him decide how to deal with this."

"Okay! That's what I was thinking too! I'll contact Big Brother right away!"

Fifth Brother said, immediately picking up his mobile phone to call their Big Brother, instead of Fourth Brother as he had done before.

However, just as he was about to dial the number, his body suddenly swayed a bit, and then a mouthful of black blood sprayed out.

This sudden development not only puzzled him, but also caused Fourth Brother's expression to drastically change.

"Fifth Brother, what's wrong with you? Didn't your injuries from the last battle stabilize? Why are you coughing up blood again?"

Fourth Brother quickly supported Fifth Brother. When he saw Fifth Brother's face turning black, with black blood seeping from his nostrils and the corners of his eyes, his expression changed again.

"No, this isn't from your previous injuries, you've been poisoned!"

As Fourth Brother spoke, Fifth Brother's complexion grew increasingly dark, and his skin visibly started turning black.

Fifth Brother broke into a violent coughing fit, spewing large amounts of black blood from his mouth.

"How could you have been poisoned so suddenly? Quickly, mobilize your star spiritual power to expel the toxins from your body!"

Fourth Brother urgently reminded him. At this point, Fifth Brother didn't have the presence of mind to wonder how he had been poisoned. Feeling the rapid destruction of his body by the deadly poison, he immediately mobilized his star spiritual power, straining to purge the deadly toxins from his system.

Meanwhile, Yang Haoran had followed Second Boss down to the small room below.

After passing through a spacious corridor, their vision suddenly opened up. Beneath the small room was a sizable underground chamber, more akin to a dungeon than a basement.

The dungeon had numerous cells, and as they passed, they noticed that all the cells were empty, though each one still faintly emanated Demonic Qi, indicating that demons had been held there recently.

At the end of the dungeon was a distinct area filled with various torture instruments, some of which still had dried blood on them.

This area was clearly dedicated to interrogation.

However, Yang Haoran's attention was not on the torture devices, but rather drawn to a beautiful woman restrained on a rack in front of him.
