Chapter 164: The Deep Sea Magic Whale King Returns to the Pope's Hall
Shui Bing'er nodded, "I understand."
To quickly find out about the whereabouts of Haotian Sect, relying solely on the people from the Slaughter City would be difficult. The fastest method would be to go directly to the Soul Hall!
Ye Wen would gather information from Bibi Dong herself or have the Soul Hall help in finding Haotian Sect's location.
At this moment, the Pope's Hall hadn't fully recovered from the battle with the soul beasts. Most of the Title Douluo were still recuperating, and some were even seriously injured. After all, the battle had been disastrous.
The buildings destroyed in the Pope's Hall were still under reconstruction, not yet restored to their former state.
However, at this time, Ye Wen appeared again in front of the doors of the Pope's Hall.
"It's the Deep Sea Magic Whale King!!"
"Ahhhh!!!"
The soldiers guarding outside were terrified when they saw Ye Wen appear.
"Hey, hey, don't be scared, I'm not here to fight this time. I just want to talk to your Pope, don't panic," Ye Wen smiled and patted one of the soldiers who had fainted in fear.
He smiled normally, but to the soldier, it was chilling and terrifying. The soldier fainted immediately.
Ye Wen hurriedly caught him, shaking him lightly, "Hey! Hey! Brother, wake up! Why did you pass out?"
"Ugh."
Ye Wen sighed and shook his head, "Forget it, I'll just go in directly."
With a leap, Ye Wen jumped over the long steps and stormed into the Pope's Hall.
The entire Pope's Hall once again fell into panic.
All the Title Douluo who were still recovering felt distressed. They had been so badly injured last time, and they had yet to fully recover. Why was this whale coming here again?
Didn't they say that as long as humans didn't randomly hunt soul beasts, they wouldn't attack humans anymore?
What's happening now?
Although they didn't want to face it, as members of the Soul Hall, the elders and all the injured Title Douluo gathered again.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The six great offerings—Ghost, Snake Spear, Magic Bear, and others—along with more than a dozen Title Douluo from the Soul Hall, surrounded Ye Wen tightly!
The next second, Bibi Dong and Qian Daoliu appeared.
"Deep Sea Magic Whale King Ye Wen!! Don't go too far! Six months ago, you led a group of 100,000-year soul beasts and heavily injured all our Title Douluo, killed our Ninth Elder, and took all the 10,000-year soul bones! Now you appear again in my Pope's Hall, what do you want to do?!"
"Do you think Soul Hall is easy to bully?! We're not afraid of you!!"
"That's right! If we have to go down, we'll go down together!"
Bibi Dong, Qian Daoliu, and the other elders were furious and yelled at Ye Wen.
But no one dared to act rashly.
Because after the battle with the soul beasts, when Bibi Dong and Qian Daoliu reviewed the situation, they realized:
Ye Wen could evolve into a dragon and achieve god-level power!
Although they suspected that this god-level power might only be temporary, they weren't sure how long it would last, and this short time could be enough for Ye Wen to destroy the entire Pope's Hall.
This was why the Pope's Hall was afraid to act. They couldn't make a move and couldn't rally all of humanity to suppress these soul beasts.
But if they were truly pushed to the edge, Soul Hall would still resist, fight back, and do everything they could to kill Ye Wen.
"Everyone, please calm down. What's all this talk about 'if we die, so be it'? This time, I'm not here to fight. You can relax," Ye Wen said calmly, standing among the Title Douluo.
He looked down at them with a casual demeanor, not showing the slightest fear or hesitation.
He smiled and continued, "I'm here to make a deal with your Soul Hall."
"A deal?"
"What do humans and soul beasts have to talk about?!"
The others were suspicious, wondering if Ye Wen had some trick up his sleeve.
"A win-win deal."
"This deal will remove a threat for your Soul Hall and speed up your plans to unify the continent," Ye Wen said.
Bibi Dong and the others immediately became serious.
Soul Hall had yet to reveal their ambitions. Even the two empires only had some suspicions, but nothing confirmed that Soul Hall wanted to unify the continent.
Now this Deep Sea Magic Whale King seemed so certain, so clear about their ambitions.
Ye Wen's words made Bibi Dong and the others uneasy, wondering what hidden benefits or risks lay in this deal.
"Don't worry, if I wanted to destroy Soul Hall, why didn't I just kill all your Title Douluo in that battle six months ago?"
"I could have caused your hall a tremendous loss and made it impossible for you to balance between the two empires. I didn't have to come back to play games with you, right?" Ye Wen said with a smile.
Bibi Dong hesitated for a moment, signaling everyone to retract their power. Although she despised aligning with soul beasts, she wanted to hear what deal could benefit Soul Hall.
"Go ahead, tell us what deal you want to make."
"You people in Soul Hall are the strongest soul master force on the continent, you must be very shrewd! Let's find a quiet place to talk," Ye Wen looked around and said.
"Follow me to the hall," Bibi Dong said and left first.
Everyone followed into the high-level conference hall of the Pope's Hall.
Bibi Dong sat on the Pope's seat and said, "Now, can you tell us?"
"Then I'll be straightforward. Listen carefully, I want to destroy the Haotian Sect," Ye Wen's voice echoed through the hall.
"What... what?!"
"Destroy the Haotian Sect?!"
Everyone was shocked, their eyes widened in surprise.
Ye Wen smiled confidently, "That's right. You help me find out where Haotian Sect is, and we'll destroy them together. This kind of deal, you won't refuse, right?"
"Hmph! Why should we help you so confidently? Why would we trade with you?"
"The Haotian Sect has always been enemies with you. In the future, when Soul Hall challenges for war and conquers the world, Haotian Sect will probably return to the soul master world and help the two empires fight against you."
"After all, if Soul Hall truly unifies the continent, Haotian Sect will be in an even worse position," Ye Wen explained.
"Even so, Haotian Sect is nothing to us, Soul Hall won't be bothered by them helping the empires!" Snake Spear Douluo said.
"Heh."
Ye Wen smiled and shook his head helplessly, "You people in Soul Hall really underestimate Haotian Sect."
