Hearing that low shout like rolling thunder, the four Evil Soul Masters' scalps went numb in an instant, and a bad feeling surged into their hearts.

Soul power howled out of their bodies. The four gathered together, all the soul rings on them activating. For a moment, white, yellow, purple, and black soul rings shone against one another.

Billowing deathly energy spread from their bodies, plunging the entire square into gloom.

The tall, thin middle-aged man looked around with a grave expression. "Who is it?"

The villagers nearby were all stunned. They had no idea what had happened.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, a gale swept out. The colors of heaven and earth were instantly swallowed by that furious wind. Within the gale, an eerie green mist spread, and in the blink of an eye, all of Maple Leaf Village was enveloped by it. At the same time, a terrifying pressure descended from the sky, and a figure appeared before everyone, hovering in the air.

"Who did you call a mad dog?" Du Busi's voice was as cold as ice.

"Du... Du Busi!" After the tall, thin middle-aged man saw the newcomer clearly, his face changed drastically, all color draining from it.

"Looks like you recognize this old man. Since you do, then you should know what to do now," Du Busi said.

"He's Du Busi?" The three Evil Soul Masters beside the tall, thin middle-aged man were also shocked when they heard the newcomer's name. This was a Level 98 Super Douluo. Others might not be very familiar with the Body Sect, but their Holy Spirit Cult knew plenty of rumors from across the continent.

"We're finished!"

Several of them cried out inwardly. They had never expected that the person who came would not be an elder or deacon of the Body Sect, but the Sect Master himself.

For a moment, all four were weighed down with worry. Facing a Level 98 Super Douluo, they were like chickens, able to be slaughtered at will.

The four exchanged a glance. The next second, violent black soul power surged out of their bodies, and a soul ring lit up on each of them.

The terrifying Soul Power Fluctuation made the surrounding villagers' breathing stop short, and they watched the scene in horror.

"Disgusting soul power. Disgusting beasts!" Du Busi slowly raised his left hand and said indifferently. As he spoke, he lightly snapped his fingers.

Snap!

The crisp snap was like the toll of a funeral bell. In an instant, the eerie green mist filling the sky almost condensed into solid form and directly pierced through the bodies of the four Evil Soul Masters. Strangely, their bodies suffered no damage at all. But just as the four were startled and doubtful, preparing to activate their soul skills—

Suddenly, the four of them discovered in terror that their martial souls were actually slowly withering, then retreating back into their bodies. The soul power within them seemed to have been cut off midway, and they could not use even the slightest bit of it.

"It seems your Holy Spirit Cult still doesn't understand this old man well enough," Du Busi said calmly. "I spent decades finally finding a disciple who could inherit my Body Sect's legacy, only for him to be killed by you. Tell me, how should you repay these several decades of my life?"

As the last two words fell, the sky rumbled like thunder, releasing a tremendous explosion of sound.

The rage in Du Busi's heart had nearly reached its peak. He was already over two hundred years old. Perhaps he could still live for several more decades, but he could not guarantee that he would find a suitable successor in those decades. If the inheritance was cut off with him, how was he supposed to face the ancestors of the Body Sect?

"Don't worry. I won't let you die so easily." Du Busi hovered there without making any movement, yet on the ground, the four Evil Soul Masters looked as though their throats had been gripped, their faces swelling red as they too floated up.

Crack!

In an instant, the sound of bones breaking rang out.

"Ah...!"

Broken. The bones in all four limbs were broken. The four let out agonized wails.

The gap between a Soul Emperor and a Titled Douluo was just that vast.

Outside Maple Leaf Village.

A figure was rushing toward the village at top speed. This person was naturally Qin Ze.

Before he had even gotten close to the village, he could already see the eerie green mist blanketing the sky over the distant village.

Seeing this, Qin Ze's face filled with panic, and his heart burned with desperate anxiety. Though he was only five years old, at this moment, a strange power erupted from him.

Buzz!

Qin Ze quickly ran along the small path toward the village. What he did not notice was that at his heart, at some unknown point, a golden ball of light had appeared. The ball of light was like a spring, continuously giving him strength.

All of a sudden, Qin Ze realized his speed had actually become much faster, but he did not think too much about it.

When he reached the stream not far from the village, Qin Ze nearly failed to stay on his feet. His body froze as he looked at everything before him. In front of him lay one broken corpse after another.

"Auntie Chen, Auntie Wang, Big Fatty..." The closer he got to the village entrance, the more rapid Qin Ze's breathing became, and one name after another came from his mouth.

The aunties who had greeted him that morning were dead. Big Fatty, who often came to him asking for candy, with snot hanging from his nose and not even two years old, was dead too, lying beside his grandmother.

Thud!

Qin Ze's legs went weak, and he nearly collapsed. It was also at that moment that the mist filling the sky above Maple Leaf Village dispersed.

Seeing this, Qin Ze swallowed a mouthful of saliva. Anxiety in his eyes, he hurriedly ran into the village.

Inside the village, Du Busi had already withdrawn his soul power, while those Evil Soul Masters had every tendon and bone in their bodies shattered. Like dead dogs, they lay on the ground howling.

"Lord Soul Master!" Zheng Long had already regained consciousness. Trembling with fear, he stepped forward a few paces and respectfully called out to Du Busi.

Hearing the voice, Du Busi glanced at him. "Go collect the bodies."

They were only dead people. He had seen far too many.

Hearing this, Zheng Long's eyes turned red. Maple Leaf Village had only around a thousand people to begin with, yet nearly a hundred had died this time, and quite a few of them were children. It had all happened too suddenly. They had not had time to react.

But what had happened had already happened. Zheng Long held back the grief in his heart and hurriedly made arrangements for the villagers to collect the bodies of the dead.

Because Ke Lan had gone to Baihe City and had not yet returned, the village was effectively leaderless at the moment.

Hundreds of villagers scattered, collecting the bodies of the dead villagers along the square. Only today did everyone gain a clearer understanding of what soul masters truly were.

In the hands of soul masters, ordinary people were nothing but lambs waiting for slaughter, unable to muster even the slightest power to resist.

"A Ze!" Just as the villagers were crying while collecting the bodies of the dead, someone saw Qin Ze rushing back, panting heavily.

Hearing the voice, Qin Ze froze for a moment.

At a glance, there were probably hundreds of people collecting the broken bodies on the ground.

What was going on!

Qin Ze did not understand.

"Auntie Li, what happened in the village?" Qin Ze ran up to a woman and asked.

Auntie Li's eyes were still red. She had clearly been crying. "Our village was attacked by Evil Soul Masters. A Lord Soul Master came just now and dealt with those Evil Soul Masters. Otherwise, our Maple Leaf Village would probably have been wiped off the map."

Evil Soul Masters!

Qin Ze froze. If there was anything on Douluo Continent that people feared the most, it had to be Evil Soul Masters. They were a pack of lunatics. For the sake of their Soul Power Level, they would slaughter at will. The worst part was that because they were so powerful, you could not resist them at all.

"Right, Auntie Li said a soul master saved them. Could it be Du Busi?" Qin Ze thought.

After saying this, Auntie Li did not wait for Qin Ze to say anything. She simply continued collecting bodies with a sorrowful expression.

Qin Ze glanced at everyone, then quickly ran toward the square.
