Chapter 225

Wherever humans gather, there will almost always be traces of the Hunyan Protector's activities in the shadows.

They have a clear division of labor, and each protector usually has their own area as territory.

For example, there was a Vulture Protector in the Jia Ma Empire, and later he had a connection with Yun Shan of the Yunlan Sect. In fact, Yun Shan was able to break through to the Dou Zong realm in the future because of the help of that Vulture Protector.

In addition, the Chuyun Empire and the Mupu Empire, among others, each have a protector.

This is Soul Splash's consistent style; they generally prefer to hide in the shadows, existing behind the scenes, and rarely get involved personally.

After all, the Dou Huo Continent is so vast, and the Soul Hall has a limited number of people; it's impossible for them to do everything personally.

When something happens, they usually like to approach a powerful force, offer some benefits, and then establish a cooperative relationship.

Others may fear the power of the Soul Hall, but Yun Li doesn't care.

If Yun Li were to attack that Soul body, she might ask for his opinion, but there's no need to do so with a soul-splashed being.

Because they don't deserve human rights.

Both being Dou Zong level experts, it remains to be seen how effective it will be to forge a "demon sword" using someone from the Soul Hall who enjoys playing with souls.

The person whose soul has been spilled is still human, not Heliobus, and should be different from the Suivian Demonic Sword.

Since she was going to the Black Twisting Domain for an auction anyway, she decided to practice with a "demon sword" first and see how it went. She wouldn't dare to take out the Suivian Demonic Sword casually, but this kind of "demon sword" shouldn't be a problem.

"Little Fairy Doctor, wait for me here for a moment, I'll be right back."

Having made up her mind, Yun Li turned to talk to Little Fairy Doctor.

Before Little Fairy Doctor could ask what was going on, Yun Li had already jumped off the Starskiff.

"Huh? Who is it!"

Just as the Hunyan Protector turned around after taking down the Dou Zong-level Soul body, he sensed Yun Li's appearance and immediately became alert.

"A little girl? But not Soul body..."

Upon seeing Yun Li suddenly appear before him, Hunyan Protector was taken aback. He hadn't expected there to be other people here. He hesitated for a moment, wondering whether to kill her to silence her or simply ignore her.

The Soul Hall, as the Soul Clan's subordinate force operating in the outside world, is extremely powerful and mysterious, and its methods of doing things are also very strange.

Ordinary people generally don't know much about them, or are not at a high enough level to even come into contact with them.

Perhaps knowing that his actions would easily provoke public outrage, or perhaps due to the constraints of the Ancient Eight Clans' agreement, Hun Jian generally follows certain rules in his actions.

They generally don't attack normal people; their targets are those who died but whose souls possessed extraordinary power.

After thinking for a few seconds, the Hunyan Protector still chose to attack the girl in front of him. If she had pretended not to see it, perhaps he could have let her go.

But she stepped out on her own, and it seems... she's quite something too.

Chapter 23 Do you know what fate awaits the Heliobus /soul that falls into the hands of my Zhuming Xianzhou?

"Old Iron, let's go!"

Yun Li leaped up, and an invisible gust of wind appeared around her, directly blocking the sandstorm from affecting her body.

With a flash of sword light, the chains Hunyan Protector were severed, and Yun Li grabbed the Dou Zong-level Soul body, breaking free from the Hunyan Protector's control.

She hadn't forgotten that those who possessed souls loved to use methods like soul self-destruction and soul devouring to rapidly increase their strength.

Naturally, the first priority is to save this Soul body.

It wasn't that she was afraid of the Hunyan Protector increasing his strength; even if he did, it would only add a few stars at most, and he would still be a Dou Zong.

Even if he upgrades to the strength of Dou Zun, so what?

Anyone who isn't a Dou Di is still just an ant in Yun Li's eyes right now.

The reason I'm worried about this is that I don't want him to waste this Dou Zong-level Soul body. If he were willing to agree to my request, it would be great to use it to forge a sword.

Apart from the Central Continent, there are very few Dou Zong in other places.

Even a Dou Zong would be considered a figure in the Central Continent.

"Thank you, thank you so much... for your help, young friend!"

Just as he was about to be pulled into darkness, he was rescued and immediately thanked his Soul body.

But when he saw the face of the person who saved him, his eyes widened instantly.

The person who could save him from this mysterious man must at least be a Dou Zong powerhouse, right?

How could it be a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl?!

I've seen a ghost alive, no, I've seen a ghost dead...

Such a small Dou Zong?

I've wasted so many years of my life.

"No need to thank me. Judging from your current Soul body, it won't last much longer. How about you consider becoming a Sword Spirit?"

Yun Li carried Old Iron on one arm, waved her hand to indicate that he didn't need to worry about it, and then went straight to the point to ask him.

Soul body at the Dou Zong level, used to forge a sword... it seems that even without very precious materials, it can still be made into a decent Precious Sword, right?

This directly saved a lot of rare materials.

"Sword... Sword Spirit?"

The Soul body was stunned for a moment upon hearing this, and didn't quite react.

I feel like I've just escaped a pack of wolves only to run into a tiger's den. Why would he choose to be Sword Spirit instead of a decent human?

As a powerful Dou Zong expert, I was bullied so badly after my death. It felt like anyone could bully me.

"I didn't mean to force you, I was just asking."

Noticing the change in her expression, Yun Li quickly added that she wasn't like these people from the Soul Sect, who would disregard everything...

Of course, the bad guys are an exception.

"How dare you steal my soul-splattering prey! You deserve to die!"

The ignored Hunyan Protector suddenly realized what was happening and flew into a rage. When did someone dare to steal his soul?

This is utterly rebellious and courting death.

If this gets back, he won't be able to live in this world anymore; he'll be laughed to death by the other protectors.

He had already harbored murderous intent towards the little girl in front of him, and now he no longer hesitated, manipulating the chains to entangle Yun Li and the Soul body once again.

At the same time, he raised his scythe and slashed at the enemy from a distance.

However, when faced with the attack from the Hunyan Protector, Yun Li simply stepped forward, and an invisible force directly blocked his attack.

Both the chains and the dark blade energy were instantly erased, as if they had never existed at all.

"Not good!"

Upon seeing this, the Hunyan Protector's expression changed.

With his own strength as a two-star Dou Zong, this little girl had effortlessly erased his attack, indicating that her strength far surpassed his own.

He's probably bitten off more than he can chew.

We cannot match them; we must leave immediately.

Such a young child possesses such immense power; such a genius is undoubtedly the Soul Hall's most valued target. As long as he reports her existence, even if the capture of the Soul body fails this time, he will not be punished but will instead be rewarded!

Thinking of all this, the Hunyan Protector had no lingering feelings. He turned around and tore through space to prepare to leave. His strength had reached the Dou Zong level, which already gave him the ability to tear through space.

However, how could Yun Li let him escape right under her nose...?

Yun Li raised the Old Iron in both hands, revealing her true destiny the Hunt. At this moment, Yun Li even had a feeling that she could kill the past and future of the Hunyan Protector in front of her with a single sword strike.

His Predetermined Death the moment he was born!

This is one of her abilities after reaching the Emanator- level the Hunt Path Power.

However, Yun Li's goal was not to kill him, but to take his soul.

Therefore, when Yun Li unleashed her sword, the space where the Hunyan Protector was located was instantly erased, as if that space had never existed at all.

It's like a loophole in this world...

Hunyan Protector, who had just been trying to use the spatial rift to pass through the Soul Clan's exclusive escape passage, hadn't even had time to react before his body reappeared back where it started.

"What's going on?!"

The Hunyan Protector's expression changed drastically, completely bewildered by what had happened.

He should have already entered the spatial rift, so why is there only emptiness here?

Just how strong is she?!

"We haven't even officially started fighting yet, why are you running away?"

"Come on, let's continue..."

Yun Li took a step forward, and her body appeared directly in front of the Hunyan Protector. She put down the Old Iron in her hand, put her hands on her hips, and looked at the person in front of her.

"..."

Staring at the little girl in front of him, the Hunyan Protector's expression shifted between anger and uncertainty; he couldn't even run away.

Damn it, how can there be such a powerful person in this place?

But now the situation leaves him no choice but to back down.

"Let me leave. I will no longer concern myself with this Soul body; it's yours."

"You're scared before we've even started? That won't do. Besides, I don't need you to back down."

How could Yun Li possibly be moved by this guy's insincere words?

Does she need him to give in?

"Heh heh... Little girl, do you know what the consequences will be for offending my Soul Hall?"

Seeing that even after he had given in, this guy still wouldn't let him go, so the Hunyan Protector couldn't help but issue a threat.

Throughout the entire Dou Huo Continent, there is no one whom Soul Splash fears. She might not care about herself, a mere Dou Zong, but the powerful figure behind him is someone she absolutely cannot afford to offend.

"Oh, I'd like to know what the outcome will be?"

Upon hearing his words, Yun Li looked like a curious child.

"Soul extracted and bones refined, unable to live or die... Hehehe..."

The Hunyan Protector spoke in a sinister tone.

It can be said that those who fall into the hands of the Soul Hall suffer the most painful fate among all living beings in this world.

In the hands of others, the worst that could happen is death.

But Soul Splash is an entity that specializes in torturing and manipulating souls, and its various methods targeting souls are absolutely beyond everyone's imagination.

In comparison, being annihilated is actually a blessing.

"That's not all that great!"

However, after hearing his words, Yun Li acted as if it was no big deal.

"Do you know what happened to Heliobus, a life form similar to Soul body, that fell into the hands of my Zhuming Xianzhou?"

"I will dedicate the rest of my life to forging it, for all eternity, to becoming a tool for forging the sword!"

Yun Li's account of the fates of those Heliobus wasn't entirely untrue; many Heliobus did indeed suffer terribly at the hands of the people from the Zhuming Xianzhou.

Their bodies were used to propel the Xianzhou and even to forge weapons.

Even Yun Li, while destroying the Demon Sword, did not spare any effort in dealing with those Heliobus.

For others, Heliobus is terrifying, but Yun has been in contact with those Suivian Demonic Sword the most, so would she be afraid of them?

It is obviously impossible.

"What?!"

Upon hearing this, the Hunyan Protector was greatly shocked. He thought that his Soul Splash sect was already fearsome in its Soul body, but he never expected that there was another force even more ruthless!

But Zhuming Xianzhou? Heliobus?
