The Second Honored Guest Elder was stunned directly, and his heart sank as he felt Bibi Dong's extremely cold gaze.
He immediately knelt down: "Pope, this has nothing to do with me! Pope, please don't overthink it!"
Bibi Dong sneered: "Overthink? The area under your management, was it a coincidence that Ye Yu destroyed it?"
The Third Honored Guest Elder was also dumbfounded; was the Second Honored Guest Elder too unlucky, or what?
Building the military zone of Xilu, and because of its fairly good geographical location, they tried to obey the Second Honored Guest Elder as much as possible, strengthening military forces and preparing more funds for construction.
Therefore, he handed over a lot of money to the Second Honored Guest Elder for the development of Xilu, but now that it has developed, it was destroyed by Ye Yu, which is a huge loss for them.
The Third Honored Guest Elder frowned: "I don't even know how to speak for you? Why did it vanish just after developing?"
"This…I really don't know." The Second Honored Guest Elder shook his head repeatedly.
Bibi Dong was extremely angry, knowing the importance of the Xilu military base, equivalent to a large city being offered, with massive losses and countless manpower and resources expended.
"Damn it! You better explain why!" Bibi Dong fumed.
The Second Honored Guest Elder was on the verge of tears: "I wanted to personally guard there before, and I even had the Third Honored Guest Elder ask you for permission, but it was denied; otherwise…"
Upon hearing this, Bibi Dong's murderous aura intensified, her terrifying momentum making the Second Honored Guest Elder's heart throb, stronger than before.
Bibi Dong coldly laughed: "Blame me for not letting you guard there? If I let you guard, would it be that you and Ye Yu conspired together to make it your territory?"
The Second Honored Guest Elder panicked and shook his head: "No…no, I'm not an undercover agent, Pope, you must believe me."
Bibi Dong snorted: "From now on, you don't have to do anything, go to the dungeon."
The Second Honored Guest Elder felt extremely aggrieved.
Bibi Dong no longer looked at him, but inquired the Third Honored Guest Elder: "Have they replied yet?"
The Third Honored Guest Elder shook his head: "Not yet, it's not that fast, but it should arrive soon. However, I am worried."
Bibi Dong frowned: "Worried about failing again because of Ye Yu?"
"Yes, it's too coincidental, we developed for three years, but this time when we took action, Ye Yu, who had been dormant for three years, reappeared."
Bibi Dong spoke in a deep voice: "No matter what, this time it must succeed, and bring back those two severely injured one hundred thousand years Soul Beasts for me."
Bibi Dong furrowed her brow: "It's a pity I am at a critical point now and can't be distracted by other matters, otherwise I would go too."
The Second Honored Guest Elder, preparing to leave, requested: "Pope, are you worried that Ye Yu will step in to save the Celestial Cyan Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape? Although this time's lineup is stronger, let me go too, this will better ensure the mission's completion."
Bibi Dong's face darkened, glaring at the Third Honored Guest Elder: "Did you even tell him about this?"
"Well…the other elders and a batch of Soul Douluo left; the Second Honored Guest Elder can also sense it, so he guessed…"
Bibi Dong coldly looked at the Second Honored Guest Elder: "Anyone can go, except you!"
The Second Honored Guest Elder felt a chill in his heart, not being trusted, he could only withdraw.
At this moment, Hu Liena, Xie Yue, Yan, and the other members of the Golden Generation were near the border of a city, not far from Xilu Country. They were already aware of the massive destruction Ye Yu and the others were causing in different areas.
Xie Yue spoke in a low voice: "This is so despicable, so audacious."
Yan said coldly: "They're always this bold; we can't just stand by and do nothing. Let's go together, kill Ye Yu and Tang San, and that rabbit, and help the Pope fulfill the unfinished wish."
Hu Liena replied coolly: "Stand by and do nothing? Going means sending ourselves to death."
"Liena, in the past few years, we have trained harder, and our strength has increased significantly, moreover, there are six Soul Douluo and twenty Soul Saints in this lineup, which is more than enough. Though Ye Yu is strong, six Soul Douluo veterans can hold him off. Six veterans joining forces are equivalent to an ordinary Titled Douluo; Ye Yu at his full might is no more than a Titled Douluo, is he?"
"Xie Yue is right, we indeed need to set out."
Six Soul Douluo approached, followed by twenty Soul Saints.
Xie Yue sneered: "With such a lineup, unless Ye Yu goes berserk like last time, we have hope."
In the following days, Ye Yu and the others continued their destruction, while the Martial Soul Hall's people united in resistance and preparation, but it was all in vain.
After laying waste to numerous cities, Ye Yu and his team were about to pause, as they were nearing the Tian Dou Empire, having destroyed all Martial Soul Empire cities encountered along the way.
One morning, as Ye Yu's group set off, Tang San frowned slightly.
The morning air was fresh, but he smelled the scent of blood.
"Brother Yu, did you smell it?"
Ye Yu nodded: "Let's go and check it out."
The trio entered a forest, where every plant was stained with the scent of blood.
As they approached, Tang San's heart beat faster, feeling a slight tremor. After asking Ye Yu, he didn't experience similar distress.
As they got closer, Tang San's left hand swirled with black aura, and the Vast Heaven Hammer appeared by itself with a slight tremor, surprising Tang San; he hadn't released the Vast Heaven Hammer, why did it appear on its own?
The instant it appeared, a sense of excitement transmitted from the hammer to his body; it was a kind of bloodthirsty excitement. The patterns on the hammer turned blood-colored, and despite the daytime, the blood-red glow on the Vast Heaven Hammer was extremely noticeable.
The thrill of bloodthirsty excitement transmitted from the hammer body into Tang San, embedding into the Vast Heaven Hammer's Slaying God Domain's patterns, all turning into blood-red at this moment, remaining distinct even in daylight, gradually protruding from the hammer's surface.
Tang San felt a terrifying bloodthirst, and slaughter, startling him; the sensation seemed to envelop him like the Slaying God Domain, not as an enhancement, but as a negative feeling.
Tang San's forehead released the Light of the Sea God, enveloping the Vast Heaven Hammer.
The Light of the Sea God, though not possessing attack power, isolated the bloodthirsty aura, calming the Vast Heaven Hammer.
As they continued forward, seeing Ye Yu unaffected, indicated that whatever it was hadn't reached him yet, and the three pressed on.
Drawing even closer, suddenly the blood-red patterns on the Vast Heaven Hammer flared intensely, breaking through the isolation of the Light of the Sea God, the Slaying God Domain activated automatically without being invoked, its terrifying murderous intent nearly backfired on Tang San.
If it weren't for the trials on Sea God Island over the past three years, where his mindset and endurance reached frightening levels, he might've succumbed to its backlash.
Tang San's spiritual power, on par with Poseisy, quickly counterattacked, regaining control of the Slaying God Domain.
Upon reaching the forest's center, Ye Yu and the others stopped, for in front, on a large tree's branches hung two bodies, or more accurately, remains of two bodies, two clumps of flesh suspended there.
Bone and flesh exposed, though without blood.
Ye Yu and Tang San sensed soul power clashes and battle fluctuations from afar and quickly advanced.
The trio swiftly arrived to see a mass of blood mist ahead, the stench of blood so thick; it emanated from this.
Within the blood mist, incessant screams rang out, with dismembered bodies flung out continually, leaving only flesh without blood, heads rolling off, Ye Yu and his companions recognized Xie Yue from the Golden Generation of Martial Soul Hall.
Ye Yu and Tang San's vision pierced the blood mist, seeing struggling figures inside, with one still alive, Hu Liena.
Ye Yu quietly thought: "King of Slaughter, or rather, Tang Chen."
