Similar to the previous instances, Lord of the Blood Lake, the formidable enemy, was not killed on the spot by An Jianyou and his team but sealed within the Netherworld.
However, Lord of the Blood Lake was a special case. He might have been granted powers by the Crimson Moon; even if the vast pool of scarlet was shattered, mostly extinguished, and suppressed, it still possessed a considerable recovery speed.
"At this rate, the Lord of the Blood Lake could recover more than half his strength in just three days and break free from the seal."
Of course, what he broke through were only sealing rituals and skills, as he couldn't breach the barriers of the Netherworld.
This is An Jianyou's home ground. Even if Lord of the Blood Lake restored his complete form, she would not fear him. However, it would cost a lot of power, and it wasn't wise to exhaust energy on a 'super soldier' like Lord of the Blood Lake.
