Chapter 712: Waiting for You

“Three-Star Douzun?” Yun Yun didn’t expect the Soul Hall to send a Dou Zun of this caliber directly this time!

One could imagine how terrifying the overall strength of the Soul Hall was.

“Three-Star Douzun, is that very powerful?” Yu Xian asked Yun Yun, who was beside him.

“Just an Early Stage Soul Transformation,” Yun Yun explained.

The Cultivation system on the Douqi Continent is different from other continents, and the Realm divisions are also different, but they all have corresponding stages.

“Oh, do you want to practice?” Yu Xian smiled.

“Husband, please resolve it quickly. Although I am confident I can take him down, it will definitely take some effort,” Yun Yun shook her head.

A battle at the Soul Transformation Stage is not like an ordinary battle; the power is enough to destroy the entire Yunlan Sect.

“You’re the one who dared to challenge the Soul Hall outside?” Mu Gu Old Man saw Yu Xian’s youth, a trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, which was then replaced by deep disdain, and then his anger was ignited by Yu Xian and Yun Yun’s nonchalant discussion.

“Hmph, he’s just a pretty face. Esteemed Elder, your subordinate will take him down now!” A Protector, seeing Yu Xian’s youth and lack of Dou Qi fluctuations, directly rushed towards Yu Xian and his companions, intending to capture them.

“He’s courting death.” Yu Xian shook his head slightly and raised his hand, a sword shadow shot directly towards the Protector.

The Protector didn’t even react before feeling a hole appear in his neck, followed by intense Divine Soul pain. His life force was instantly cut off, and his entire being dissipated into the air, leaving no trace.

This scene caused Mu Gu Old Man and the other two Dou Zong Protectors’ pupils to constrict, their arrogant expressions instantly froze, replaced by deep shock.

One move! With just one move, a Dou Zong expert was instantly killed! Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering!

“You… what kind of monster are you?” Mu Gu Old Man’s voice trembled for the first time; he felt an unprecedented fear.

This young man in front of him felt even more terrifying than the Hall Master!

“Monster? Soon, you’ll know.” Yu Xian’s lips curved into a cold smile.

Before his words finished, Yu Xian’s hand moved again, and another sword shadow shot out.

This time, his target was Mu Gu Old Man.

Although Mu Gu Old Man was terrified, he was still a Five-star Dou Zun, reacting extremely quickly. He formed hand seals, and a dense black mist instantly erupted, transforming into countless ghostly specters that surged towards the sword shadow. At the same time, he rapidly retreated, trying to create distance.

However, how could Mu Gu Old Man block Yu Xian’s sword?

The sword shadow pierced directly through Mu Gu Old Man’s ghostly specters, heading straight for his face.

Mu Gu Old Man quickly circulated all his Dou Qi to form a light shield to block it.

“Boom!”

Mu Gu Old Man’s light shield shattered, but Yu Xian’s sword shadow also disappeared. After spitting out a mouthful of fresh blood, Mu Gu Old Man stumbled back a few steps before falling to the ground, his eyes filled with terror!

Seeing this, the two Protectors knew they had kicked an iron plate, so they ignored Mu Gu Old Man and directly turned into two masses of black Qi, attempting to escape.

Yun Yun had been on guard. The moment the two moved, she struck first, two azure sword shadows shooting out, precisely intercepting the two Protectors’ escape paths.

The azure sword shadows contained a sharp Law of Wind. As soon as they appeared, they brought with them a whistling sound that tore through the air, instantly cutting the two masses of black Qi in half.

The black Qi dissipated, revealing the two Protectors’ faces, filled with absolute horror. They didn’t even have time to let out a scream before their bodies crumbled inch by inch like weathered rocks, ultimately turning into dust, not even a trace of their remnant Souls remaining.

Yun Yun’s figure remained still. With a gentle flick of her delicate hand, she had already dealt with the two Dou Zong Protectors, her movements clean and decisive, fully displaying her current strength.

Mu Gu Old Man lay on the ground, watching his companions perish instantly. His last shred of hope was completely shattered. He struggled to get up but found that all his Dou Qi was in disarray, making it extremely difficult to even mobilize a trace of power.

Yu Xian slowly walked up to him, looking down at him with icy, emotionless eyes.

Mu Gu Old Man met Yu Xian’s gaze, his lips trembling, unable to utter a single word, only despair remaining in his eyes.

He never imagined that he, a dignified Three-Star Douzun, bringing three Dou Zong Protectors, would end up like this, when he had thought it would be an easy task.

This young man in front of him was simply the Incarnation of Death!

“Tell me, where is your Heavenly Hall?” Yu Xian’s voice was like chilling ice from the Nine Nether, causing Mu Gu Old Man to shiver.

He knew that if he didn’t speak, his fate would be even worse than that of the Protectors. But the Soul Hall’s rules were strict, and the fate of traitors was equally terrifying.

For a moment, Mu Gu Old Man was caught in a dilemma, cold sweat pouring down his forehead.

Yu Xian seemed to see through his thoughts, his cold smile deepening: “You can choose not to speak, but it seems I can search your Soul directly, which would be faster.”

As his voice fell, an even more terrifying Soul pressure swept towards Mu Gu Old Man.

Mu Gu Old Man felt as if his Soul was tightly gripped by an invisible large hand, countless sharp stinging pains assailing him, making him wish he were dead, and he let out a shrill scream.

“I’ll tell you! I’ll tell you!” In the face of extreme pain, Mu Gu Old Man’s psychological defenses completely collapsed. He roared, his voice hoarse and unpleasant.

“I don’t know where the Heavenly Hall is. I… I only know the Human Hall, I belong to the Human Hall,” Mu Gu Old Man swallowed and said.

Yu Xian smiled slightly after hearing this, “It seems your rank isn’t high enough! Do you have any special way to contact someone who knows? Preferably someone who can call your Hall Master?”

Mu Gu Old Man was an Esteemed Elder of the Soul Hall, a Peak Three-Star Douzun, and an Eighth-grade Alchemist. Although his Realm wasn’t high, he was highly regarded by the Hall Master and should be able to directly contact the Soul Hall’s Hall Master, Hun Mie Sheng.

“I… I…” Mu Gu Old Man stammered. He knew what contacting the Hall Master meant.

It was almost like leading this malevolent god directly to the core of the Soul Hall, but if he didn’t comply now, his old life would probably end here.

Weighing the pros and cons, the instinct for survival ultimately triumphed over his fear of the Soul Hall. Mu Gu Old Man tremblingly took out a completely black Jade Slip from his 懷, carved with strange runes, and offered it with both hands: “This… this is a communication Jade Slip to directly contact the Hall Master. It can only be used in extremely urgent situations…”

Yu Xian took the Jade Slip; it was cold to the touch, and an ominous aura emanated from it.

Yu Xian swept his Divine Thought over it. Hmm, it’s a bit like sending a voice message in modern communication tools.

So, “Ahem,” Yu Xian cleared his throat and said to the Jade Slip: “Esteemed Hall Master Hun Mie Sheng of the Soul Hall, your subordinate Mu Gu Old Man is currently in my hands. You can assess his value and bring more treasures to redeem him. We’ll be waiting for you.”

He let go, and it was sent successfully.

Then, Yu Xian threw the Jade Slip back to Mu Gu Old Man.

Only then did he realize that everyone’s gazes were focused on him, their eyes filled with indescribably complex emotions.

Yun Shan and Nalan Yanran were already dumbfounded, their mouths slightly agape, wide enough to fit an egg.
