Su Changkong also frankly admitted it.

Blood Thirteen gazed deeply at Su Changkong. He knew well the strength of noble family descendants, who possessed special bloodlines that were far stronger than martial artists of the same tier, and could even triumph despite being weaker.

Originally, Blood Thirteen wanted to develop the ‘Bull Demon King’ as a client for Blood Smoke Tower because of his uniqueness, but this ‘Bull Demon King’ was far more extraordinary than expected.

Not only did he kill Huangfu Honglang, but also a descendant of a noble family! Unexpected!

“What do you want to ask?” Blood Thirteen said.

“I want to know what the Wood Snake Seal is actually for,” Su Changkong spoke up. He could only suppress it with his True Qi, preventing it from appearing, but was unable to dispel it. He must understand the specific purpose of the Wood Snake Seal to be prepared.

Blood Thirteen didn’t hide anything, and he directly said, “The major thousand-year noble families are incredibly vast behemoths. Correspondingly, their clan members are actually quite scarce. Each family member is a precious treasure and resource for a noble family. Plus, for some special reasons, to prevent their own family members from being killed by others outside, each noble family descendant has a mark inside their body. Whoever kills them, this mark will brand itself on the murderer upon their death!”

Su Changkong realized in an instant why, when he killed Mu Jin, he felt an energy penetrate his body, leaving a mark. This was not an isolated case; every noble family descendant had this type of mark, which would brand the person who killed them. The Mu Family’s mark was known as the Wood Snake Seal.

“As for the effect of this mark… very simple, those of the same noble bloodline can trace the killer using the connection of the mark.”

Blood Thirteen also revealed the specific purpose of the mark: it was used for tracking down the murderer!

The corners of Su Changkong’s mouth twitched slightly beneath his mask. It was no wonder no one wanted to provoke the descendants of noble families. Not only because they were powerful, but also because it was like fighting the juniors to provoke the seniors!

Killing a person of the noble family, the mark contained within their bloodline would brand the murderer at the time of death, and other descendants of that family could use it to track down the murderer to avenge their kinsman.

“This method is too similar to the Demon Monster’s ways!”

Su Changkong thought secretly. Back then, Feng Mo had been injured by him, hence a trace of Monster Qi remained in his body, which allowed Feng Mo to easily locate him.

“Is there a way to remove this Wood Snake Seal?”

Su Changkong asked Blood Thirteen in a grave tone, wanting to know how to eliminate the Wood Snake Seal.

The Mu Family must have already learned of Mu Jin’s death by now. Without using his brain, Su Changkong knew that the Mu Family would not let things go and most likely a powerful individual would soon follow the mark to come and kill him to bury him with Mu Jin!

Even as conceited as he was, Su Changkong didn’t think he could contend against a thousand-year noble family. Mu Jin was just a young martial artist within the Mu Family, and it took Su Changkong all his strength to chop him down.

If those who came were Mu Jin’s parents, or something like an elder or family head of the Mu Family, then he definitely would struggle!

Blood Thirteen nodded slightly: “Yes, wait for it to naturally disperse, six months to a few months, it should fade away.”

Su Changkong listened quietly: six months to a few months… the Mu Family’s experts could have found him by now, even if they were traveling leisurely.

“Another way is to use the secret technique of Blood Smoke Tower to eliminate it. If you join Blood Smoke Tower, we can remove the Wood Snake Seal for free.”

Blood Thirteen said, directly inviting Su Changkong to join Blood Smoke Tower!

“Join Blood Smoke Tower?”

Su Changkong frowned inwardly; he had previously just commissioned and traded with Blood Smoke Tower, being their client, not a member of Blood Smoke Tower.

“Exactly! We, the envoys of Blood Smoke Tower, in addition to finding clients, also scout for people with potential to invite them to join Blood Smoke Tower! Your potential is quite exceptional, I acknowledge that, and you qualify to join Blood Smoke Tower.”

Blood Thirteen nodded, not hiding his admiration and intent.

Blood Smoke Tower, with its core members being few, each one an elite among elites. Most of the time, the tasks of Blood Smoke Tower are given to ‘clients’ to complete, and it’s completely different when a core member of Blood Smoke Tower personally takes action!

If Su Changkong had only killed Huangfu Honglang, Blood Thirteen wouldn’t have invited him to join Blood Smoke Tower, but Su Changkong also killed a noble family descendant, which moved Blood Thirteen’s thoughts, believing he was worthy to join Blood Smoke Tower.

Moreover, Su Changkong killed the Mu Family descendant and was branded with the Wood Snake Seal, making him a target for the Mu Family’s pursuit. In Blood Thirteen’s view, Su Changkong had almost no other choice!

“Besides this, are there other ways to avoid the Wood Snake Seal?”

Su Changkong did not respond to Blood Thirteen’s invitation, but asked again.

“There is another, suppressing it with True Qi, which can make the tracking of the Wood Snake Seal inaccurate, only able to determine an approximate range.”

Blood Thirteen answered truthfully.

“Only able to determine an approximate range… in that case, the more people around me, the harder it is to be discovered!”

Su Changkong was struck by a thought.

By suppressing the Wood Snake Seal with True Qi, the tracker would not be able to pinpoint the exact location. Hiding in densely populated areas would make it quite difficult to be singled out, provided the person has profound strength and is always able to suppress it—suppressing the Wood Snake Seal constantly consumes True Qi.
