Su Zui threatened the bespectacled man many times, but got the same result each time.

At this moment, Su Zui's eyes were so dark they seemed to drip water.

I spent the whole night working on it, but the trail went cold again.

Today, after tracing the investigation layer by layer, we first found Wang Teng, who is actually a member of the Wang Family, one of the Eight Great Families.

The fact that Wang Teng was so wary left Su Zui wondering who Wang Teng really was, and what these so-called Eight Great Families were.

Having been in the Spirit Hall for so many years, how come I've never heard of these Eight Great Families?

Today's investigation left Su Zui quite displeased.

Each time, he thought he was getting closer to the truth, but unexpectedly, the clues would suddenly go cold at the most crucial moment.

At this moment, Su Zui seemed to be able to see, across time and space, that in a distant corner, Wang Teng was sitting in a chair, looking at him with a mocking expression.

Turning to look at the trembling bespectacled man beside him, Su Zui delivered another chop to the neck, knocking him unconscious to the ground.

Then, Su Zui pointed his fingers together as a sword and shot out two sword energies, severing the meridians in the right hands of the two men respectively.

Ultimately, they were just ants driven by others; killing them would be pointless. Su Zui only gave them a minor punishment.

I'm sure Wang Teng will find out about what I did today very soon.

Since that's the case, there's no need for me to hide anymore.

Su Zui, Great Luo Sword Embryo, kicked open the office door and swaggered out.

The sudden commotion instantly drew everyone's attention.

However, when they caught sight of the longsword in Su Zui's hand, they immediately turned their gazes away.

After all, in the Suotuo City Great Soul Arena these days, who doesn't know the name of the Wine Sword?

The shape and appearance of this sword are deeply etched in everyone's mind.

The patrolling Soul Masters, who were usually so menacing, all turned into little lambs, standing respectfully on both sides, watching Su Zui leave.

After Su Zui left, the patrolling Soul Masters resumed their patrols as if nothing had happened, as if Su Zui had never been there at all.

Are you kidding me? With such a low monthly salary, why would I risk my life?

They desperately tried to stop Su Zui from leaving; that was a different price.

Su Zui swaggered out of the Soul Fighting Arena.

The night was now even deeper, and the entire long street had fallen silent.

Su Zui walked leisurely down the long bluestone street, but a hint of melancholy still lingered in his eyes.

He still doesn't know what grudge he has against the Wang Family. This feeling of being out of control makes Su Zui feel anxious and uncertain.

He raised his hand and summoned the Chaos Wine Gourd, then drank several mouthfuls of the fine wine.

It seems I overestimated my abilities.

Unable to find anything, Su Zui simply stopped worrying about it.

Su Zui will write a letter to the Spirit Hall first thing tomorrow morning.

There's a saying that goes something like this, "It's getting cold, let the Wang Family go bankrupt."

Su Zui felt it was time for the Wang Family to go bankrupt.

After another sip of fine wine, his hangover made him feel dizzy and unsteady.

I'm just too serious about things.

Despite having the Spirit Hall a powerful backer, he could have easily left this kind of matter to them, but he just preferred to do it himself.

It would be so nice not to go out tonight. I could have a drink at Su She, play with the cats, and take a nap with Rongrong.

All you need to do is write a letter to the Spirit Hall, Titled Douluo will naturally come knocking on the Wang Family's door.

It seems I haven't changed my mindset after all.

Despite being a powerful second-generation heir, he was not arrogant or domineering, but instead, he was bullied by the small Wang Family.

Although the Wang Family is mysterious, Wang Family cannot possibly be more powerful than the Spirit Hall.

Therefore, the Wang Family had absolutely no idea that they were members of the Spirit Hall.

Since they don't know they're from the Spirit Hall, then they're only targeting themselves.

Therefore, it was only after entering Suotuo City that the Wang Family began to target him.

Still somewhat dazed, Su Zui began analyzing the clues one by one.

After entering Suotuo City, my official identity was that of a member of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. However, I had visited the Spirit Hall once during that time. Surely I couldn't have been targeted during that period?

Forget it, I already said I didn't want to think about it, why did I bring it up again?

Su Zui chuckled, turned around to look at the street behind him, a cold smile on his face.

"Friends, you've been following me for so long, aren't you going to come out and have a couple of drinks with me?"

A gust of wind blew by, stirring up the fallen leaves on the ground, and the surroundings were deathly silent.

"Clap clap clap..."

About two seconds later, a sharp clapping sound suddenly rang out, abruptly shattering the silence of the entire street.

The next second, four figures shrouded in the night slowly emerged from all sides of Su Zui.

The four men were positioned in a tricky manner, instantly blocking all routes of advance and retreat; it was a well-trained, top-tier assassination formation.

"As expected of the Wine Sword! With that insight, you truly deserve your name."

The leader of the men in black slowly raised his head, his hoarse, deep voice echoing in the empty street.

Upon hearing Su Zui's eyes narrowed slightly.

There was no trace of panic in his eyes; instead, there was a casual smile.

"Now that you know my name, you lot still dare to block my way here. Aren't you afraid of dying by my sword? Or are you simply here to have a drink with me?"

The leader of the men in black robes sneered, his sinister gaze fixed intently on Su Zui.

"You're about to die, yet you're still so stubborn. I'd like to see if your sword can break through my defenses!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a powerful aura suddenly erupted from the black-robed leader.

Then, one after another, Soul Rings slowly emerged from beneath his feet.

Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black!

The person before me is actually a Soul Emperor level expert! Moreover, he is Soul Emperor with the best Soul Ring ratio!

Seeing Su Zui's somewhat surprised gaze, a smug look immediately appeared on the black man's face.

At this moment, his gaze was fixed on Su Zui, like a cat playing Haozi a mouse.

"Hehehe... Su Zui, I know you're powerful, claiming to be invincible at the Soul Ancestor level. But I'm not Soul Ancestor; I am a level 68 Power Attack System Battle Soul Emperor!"

Upon hearing the other person's words, Su Zui's gaze gradually became serious.

Level 68, Power Attack System Battle Soul Emperor —that level is indeed quite terrifying...

Before Su Zui could react, the other three also revealed their Soul Rings.

They were all Five-Ring Soul Kings, and their fifth Soul Ring was Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring!

Su Zui could sense that the Soul Power Levels of the other three were at least level 55 or higher.

If the opponent only has that one Soul Emperor expert, or only three Soul Kings, Su Zui is confident he can take them down.

However, the person in front of him was a high-level Soul Emperor, accompanied by three high-level Soul Kings.

Using such a lineup to deal with a Soul Ancestor like myself? Isn't that overestimating myself a bit?

No, what kind of deep-seated grudge could there be? They directly used a level 68 Soul Emperor.

Even if he could kill three high-level Soul Kings in a short time, relying on his speed advantage, he still wouldn't be able to.

However, it will definitely consume a huge amount of Soul Power, and when I face this high-level Soul Emperor again, I will have a very difficult time.

If I run now, the four people on the other side definitely won't be able to catch me.

However... having finally found a free live target to kill, Su Zui naturally couldn't just run away.

Moreover, Su Zui also wanted to know if he could now be invincible below the Soul Saint level.

Moreover, Su Zui also has the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear External Soul Bone as a trump card, as well as his own Healing and Blood-Replenishing Grape Wine.

This battle doesn't seem to be a situation where defeat is inevitable.

At that moment, the Soul Emperor, who was in charge, also spoke.

"Wine Sword, we truly have no grudge against each other. It's just that someone paid us to deal with you. Don't blame us after you're in hell! Martial Soul, possess me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the Soul Emperor's body underwent a tremendous change.

His body, which was originally just a bit rugged, was now covered with rough, boar-like hair.

His entire head had been transformed into a pig's head, with four tusks protruding outwards, making him look extremely ferocious and terrifying.

In no time at all, the Soul Emperor had transformed into a pig-headed monster. It would not be an exaggeration to say that his appearance at this moment could scare people to death.

However, at that moment, Su Zui also moved.

Illuminated Sword Heart, activate!

Second Soul Skill, Divine Speed Slash, thirty-two times the Divine Speed!

Without any warning, Su Zui charged directly at the Soul King who was closest to him.

The Soul King instinctively tried to use his Soul Skill to resist, but the next moment, a sharp sword aura emerged from the shadows beneath his feet and pierced directly between his legs.

This intense pain instantly interrupted the Soul King's use of his Soul Skill.

The next moment, the Soul King felt a chill on his neck, followed by a dizzying spin, and he completely lost consciousness.

The Soul King's corpse lay motionless on the ground, scattered in a pool of blood.

It all happened so fast, in the blink of an eye.

By the time that high-level Soul Emperor completed his Martial Soul Possession, Su Zui had already killed a Soul King.

In a very short time, Su Zui directly transformed from prey to hunter.

"You dare, kid!"

The black-robed Soul Emperor roared in fury, his eyes bloodshot. He couldn't believe that this Soul Ancestor, who was only level 45, could be so fast.

Moreover, judging from the lethality this kid displayed, he was a whole level stronger than the employer had described!

However, Su Zui felt no affection whatsoever.

He knew in his heart that the high-level Soul Emperor in front of him not only had strong physical attributes, but also a rare defensive Martial Soul, the Black-Armored Wild Boar.

Moreover, he had already consumed 15% of his Soul Power by killing that Soul King. If he stayed in place and fought the other three head-on, even if he could kill the remaining three, he would definitely be injured.

Therefore, the moment he killed the Soul King, Su Zui did not linger in the fight.

The wind surged beneath his feet, and he sprinted at full speed toward the north gate of Suotuo City. This time, he didn't even use his Soul Skill; he had already covered more than a hundred meters just by relying on his physical abilities.

The night was bleak, and on the long street, only three furious figures in black robes and a cold corpse remained.
