Chapter 128 - Chapter 128: Soul Palace Threat

After Elder Zun Yao personally dealt with Han Feng, the expression on his face remained solemn for a long time.

After all, Han Feng was once like a son to Elder Zun Yao.

Seeing this, Xiao Yi slowly took out another jade bottle from his storage ring and softly said, "Next, it's him..."

As Xiao Yi finished speaking, he immediately released Protector Wu's Soul from the jade bottle.

At this moment, Protector Wu had also been tormented quite a bit by the Fallen Heart Flame.

Protector Wu escaped from the jade bottle, temporarily freed from the torment of the Fallen Heart Flame.

He was also gasping for air, taking deep breaths.

"Dou Zun Your Excellency..."

"If you can let me go today, then Hall of Souls and I will be friends in the future..."

Protector Wu hurriedly turned to look at Xiao Yi and pleaded.

However, before Xiao Yi could speak, Xiao Xuan slowly took a step forward, looking at Protector Wu with cold eyes, and said in a deep voice:

"Hall of Souls..."

"Looking at the gloomy and dark Qi on your body, it seems somewhat similar to the Hun Clan..."

After all, a thousand years ago on the Fighting Qi Continent, the Xiao Clan and the Hun Clan were in direct opposition.

And Hall of Souls was a force established by the Hun Clan in the outside world. Xiao Xuan naturally disdained to learn about such a small force, and had never even heard of it.

When Protector Wu heard Xiao Xuan's words, his eyes instantly lit up.

Because Protector Wu had not expected that in this small Jia Ma Empire, there would still be someone who knew about the existence of the Hun Clan.

Although Protector Wu could sense that the person in front of him who knew the Hun Clan was also a Soul body, it was an extremely terrifying existence.

But in order to survive, Protector Wu had no time to think, believing that bringing up the Hun Clan would allow him to escape this calamity today:

"Sir, your perception is correct..."

"Hall of Souls indeed works for the Hun Clan, so if you can show mercy and spare me today, then..."

However, before Protector Wu could finish speaking, a red glow burst forth from Xiao Xuan's eyes.

"Hun Clan, truly disgusting!"

"Being a dog of the Hun Clan, is that something worth enduring?"

As Xiao Xuan finished speaking, a powerful pressure instantly appeared out of thin air. From that posture, he was preparing to directly obliterate Protector Wu's body and Soul here.

Instantly, Protector Wu felt as if his Soul was about to be torn apart by the Void Realm, a feeling even more painful than the Fallen Heart Flame!

Protector Wu could never have known that the person in front of him was Xiao Xuan, the Clan Chief of the Xiao Clan, who was able to contend with the Hun Clan a thousand years ago!

Even Hun Tiandi was extremely wary of him back then.

Protector Wu never expected that he would never be able to meet the Hun Clan Chief in his lifetime, but he met Xiao Xuan, an existence on the same Rank as the Hun Clan Chief, first.

However, just as Protector Wu was about to be killed by Xiao Xuan, Xiao Yi also hurriedly spoke:

"Ancestor, this person is, after all, a Protector of Hall of Souls..."

"If he were to be killed just like this, it would be too easy for him..."

"Moreover, this is just a running dog of Hall of Souls. If you act, I'm afraid it would dirty your hands..."

After all, Xiao Yi was still planning to find out the location of Hall of Souls's branch in the Northwest Continent from Protector Wu, and wipe them all out in one go.

Xiao Xuan listened, then withdrew his power and nodded without speaking.

And Elder Zun Yao remained silent at this moment, merely looking at Protector Wu, whose Soul body was only half-remaining on the ground!

For Hall of Souls, Elder Zun Yao also harbored extreme hatred.

After all, it was Han Feng who colluded with Hall of Souls to attack him back then, leading to his current predicament.

A hint of killing intent appeared between Xiao Yi's brows as he slowly stepped forward.

Xiao Yi slowly raised his hand, and instantly, a colorless, transparent flame emerged from his palm.

The Fallen Heart Flame directly transformed into the shape of a hand, grabbing the collar of the half-dead, crippled Protector Wu on the ground, and directly pulling him up.

"If you want to live..."

"Then be sensible and tell me everything you know!"

"Next, I ask, you answer..."

Xiao Yi stared coldly at Protector Wu, speaking in a cold voice.

At this moment, Protector Wu had long lost his initial arrogance and was nodding repeatedly:

"Sir, please ask, I will answer everything I know..."

Xiao Yi nodded, then softly asked:

"Tell me everything you know about Hall of Souls..."

Protector Wu heard this and quickly spoke, afraid that he might displease the people in front of him and be killed.

"To answer you, Sir..."

"Hall of Souls is a vast power, with various branches spread throughout the Fighting Qi Continent..."

"And the internal Rank system of Hall of Souls is strict. Protectors alone are divided into Heaven, Earth, and Human Ranks..."

"Currently, I am merely the lowest Human-Rank Protector..."

Hearing this, Xiao Yi also recalled that in the original work, Protector Wu was only promoted to Earth-Grade Protector after capturing Elder Zun Yao's Soul and returning.

And Xiao Yan, hearing this, couldn't help but swallow.

After all, Xiao Yan knew that the person in front of him was a Dou Zong, and even a Dou Zong could only be the lowest-Rank Protector in Hall of Souls!

One can imagine how terrifying this Hall of Souls truly was.

Xiao Yi nodded: "Continue..."

Protector Wu paused and then continued:

"Above the Heavenly Rank Protector, there are many highly respected Elder Zuns! Elder Zuns, like you, Sir, are powerful Dou Zun Experts!"

"Among the Elder Zuns in Hall of Souls, the most outstanding ones are known as Heavenly Venerates. As for the Hall Master, I've heard that only a few Elder Zuns have seen him..."

"I only know that the Hall Master has already reached the Dou Saint-Grade..."

Hearing the words "Dou Saint", Elder Zun Yao and Xiao Yan both couldn't help but be slightly stunned, while only Xiao Xuan remained calm and composed.

Xiao Yi nodded after hearing this, then softly said:

"In that case, tell me the locations of all the Hall of Souls branches distributed throughout the Fighting Qi Continent..."

However, upon hearing this, Protector Wu's face showed difficulty:

"Please forgive me, Sir..."

"A Protector of my Rank only knows about the branches in the Northwest Continent. As for the other branches, I truly don't know..."

Although Hall of Souls was the most powerful force on the surface of the Central Plains, its actions were strange, and indeed very few people knew its true location.

Xiao Yi turned and glared at Protector Wu: "Then point out the location of the branch in the Northwest Continent!"

Protector Wu heard this and hurriedly said: "The Northwest Branch is located in the Heavenly Burial Gorge of the Tianxin Empire..."

"The Northwest Branch is a small branch, with only one Heavenly Rank Protector in charge, an Eight-star Dou Zong Expert..."

Protector Wu was also very sensible, revealing everything he knew.

And Xiao Yi, after hearing this, nodded.

Seeing Xiao Yi's satisfied gaze, Protector Wu also tentatively asked:

"Excuse me, Sir..."

"I have told you everything I know. I wonder if you can spare my life..."

However, Xiao Yi shook his head:

"Unfortunately, your answer did not satisfy me..."

"Moreover, since you chose to be a running dog of Hall of Souls, you must be prepared for death..."

As Xiao Yi finished speaking, before Protector Wu could react.

Xiao Yi merely raised his hand and gently squeezed, and the hand formed by the Fallen Heart Flame instantly crushed Protector Wu's Soul!

Meeting the exact same fate as Han Feng...
