At this moment, only Su Zui, Qian Renxue, and the King of Slaughter were in the entire hall.
A few lamps were lit in the empty hall, casting a faint glow like fireflies. This light did not bring any sense of security; instead, it sent a chill down one's spine.
It was as if the lamp oil contained not grease, but blood.
In the deathly silent hall, time seemed to slow down several times over.
The imposing figure shrouded in black mist stood silently.
He didn't move, but the pressure he released solidified into a tangible form.
If an ordinary Soul Master were standing here, their legs would probably have gone weak and they would have knelt down in submission.
This is also a tactic commonly used by the King of Slaughter.
Don't be fooled by the fact that this King of Slaughter is currently displaying an air of superiority while carrying himself on his back, putting on a respectable act as if he really is a master.
In fact, at this moment, the King of Slaughter had already pushed his killing intent and oppressive aura to the extreme.
In truth, even the King of Slaughter was crying inside.
Although he was parasitizing a Level 99 Demigod, he couldn't use Tang Chen's Soul Rings and Soul Skills.
Therefore, his strength is not as great as others imagine.
However, even though the King of Slaughter had pushed his aura and killing intent to the limit, Su Zui and Qian Renxue remained upright, showing no sign of bending their knees.
Perhaps provoked by the King of Slaughter, the Great Luo Sword Embryo raised its sword hilt, and then directly released the Invincible Sword Domain.
The moment the Invincible Sword Domain appeared, the aura that the King of Slaughter was using to show off was immediately suppressed.
The entire scene froze again.
After a long while, the King of Slaughter's deep voice slowly echoed in the empty hall.
His voice wasn't loud, but it carried clearly to every corner of the air, reaching Su Zui and Qian Renxue's ears precisely.
"That's rare."
As the words fell, the towering figure of the King of Slaughter finally turned around slowly.
The black mist slowly surged and dispersed, revealing the true form of the King of Slaughter.
He didn't look as ferocious and terrifying as one might imagine; instead, he was tall and slender with a weathered and indifferent face.
His eyes were as deep as an abyss hundreds of meters deep, filled with the coldness and indifference that came with the passage of time.
He also possessed a violent, murderous Baleful Aura, but he also exuded a supreme composure that looked down upon all living beings. With this aura and composure that looked down upon all living beings, anyone who saw him would praise him as a true master.
His gaze first fell on Qian Renxue, then settled on Su Zui, his eyes carrying a mixture of scrutiny, amusement, and nonchalance.
"Blood Angel, at such a young age, you've already established yourself in this Slaughter Hell, with forty victories and not a single defeat."
"8888, newly arrived here, like the Blood Angel, disregarding the rules of the Slaughter City, can use Soul Rings and Soul Skills within the domain's coverage..."
The King of Slaughter spoke calmly, as if stating something perfectly ordinary, but anyone could tell that King of Slaughter tone was hostile.
Judging from that tone, a fight is about to break out in the next second.
"You two are both prodigies, talents of my Slaughter City. My Slaughter City is in dire need of geniuses like you."
After the King of Slaughter finished speaking, he began to observe Qian Renxue and Su Zui's reactions, trying to discern any surprise or flattery on their faces.
However, the King of Slaughter was ultimately disappointed.
Neither Su Zui nor Qian Renxue showed excessive joy on their faces.
Their expressions were all indifferent, as if the King of Slaughter hadn't just praised them, but rather mentioned something as trivial as buying groceries at the market.
The King of Slaughter was extremely displeased with Su Zui and Qian Renxue's performance.
He really wanted to grab Su Zui by the collar and slap him a few times: What the hell are you pretending for all day?
However, the King of Slaughter managed to control his emotions and continued, "I have ruled the City of Slaughter City for many years, ruling over this entire Slaughter City, commanding millions of fallen ones, and my elite personal guards."
"Today, I will give you both a chance."
"If you are willing to submit to me and pledge allegiance, from this day forward, you will be the second and third most powerful people in the City of Slaughter City, after me."
"In the entire Slaughter City, you are second only to one person, above millions."
"At that time, you can roam freely in this Slaughter Hell, doing whatever you want, and those who have fallen will also be free to do whatever they want."
"Furthermore, you are not bound by this place and can freely enter and leave the Slaughter City, coming and going as you please."
These words instantly created a subtle atmosphere in the vast palace.
The promise of King of Slaughter is the ultimate dream coveted by countless fallen souls.
Countless people have perished here, fighting to the death, yet none have even been able to join the personal guard of the King of Slaughter.
However, when faced with Su Zui and Qian Renxue, the King of Slaughter directly invoked the positions of the second and third leaders of the Slaughter City, demanding to share the power of the Slaughter City with Su Zui and Qian Renxue.
If it were anyone else, they would have been so excited that they would have knelt down and kowtowed, vowing to be loyal to the death.
However, Su Zui's facial expression did not change at all after hearing the King of Slaughter's words; his eyes remained calm and undisturbed.
He knew very well that there was no such thing as a free lunch, and the more tempting the promise, the heavier the price hidden behind it.
Submitting to the King of Slaughter may seem like a meteoric rise in the Slaughter City, but in reality, it turns you into his pawn, forever trapped in his game.
Moreover, given Su Zui's status and position, he naturally wouldn't be interested in the position of the second-in-command of the Slaughter City.
Who is Su Zui? He is the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall, the young master of the Worship Hall, the successor to the next Pope, and the future Great Enshrined the Spirit Hall.
What is this "King of Slaughter" anyway? Does he even deserve to have Su Zui as his second-in-command?
Not only Su Zui, but even Sky Dream Ice Silkworm looked disdainful.
Her clear voice rang in Su Zui's Spiritual Sea, her tone full of disdain.
"This King of Slaughter is so ugly, it's a shame I even thought about him. He's a disgusting giant bat, and he wants you, Xiao Zui, to be his assistant? He's just ignorant and fearless."
"Bat?"
Su Zui naturally and astutely grasped the key words in Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's words.
"Therefore, this King of Slaughter is not human, but a Soul Beast."
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm nodded in satisfaction.
"Hmm, not bad, a promising young man. This King of Slaughter is a rare Nine-Headed Bat Mental Attribute, possessing 90,000 years of cultivation, but his Spiritual Power is a solid 100,000 years."
"However, his Spiritual Power is far inferior to his sister's, and in his current state, his sister is his natural enemy."
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's words were an unexpected delight to Su Zui.
"Really? Tian Meng, you're not kidding, are you? This King of Slaughter looks like a ruthless character. You're saying you're his nemesis now?"
Sky Dream Ice Silkworm patted her small chest, her fair face full of pride.
"Absolutely. The current King of Slaughter is being controlled by a Nine-Headed Bat, but my sister's Spiritual Power far surpasses that of the Nine-Headed Bat. She only needs to release a Soul Shock to knock the Nine-Headed Bat unconscious."
"Little King of Slaughter, you're in my element!"
