Snow Aunt's Possession

"To the Hall of Souls?" Qing Lin's eyes widened in shock at Ye Qianqian.

"You know about the Hall of Souls?" Ye Qianqian asked.

Qing Lin nodded. "I lived in the Heavenly Snake Mansion for a while and know a little about the Hall of Souls. I heard it's a terrifying place, home to many evil powerhouses on the Dou Qi Continent. Even our Heavenly Snake Mansion wouldn't dare provoke them lightly."

Na Lan Yan Ran and Mo Youyou listened intently. Under Qing Lin's description, they felt as if they were there, developing a strong sense of fear towards the words "Hall of Souls."

"Ancestor, maybe we shouldn't go," Mo Youyou was the most timid. Hearing Qing Lin's animated description, she immediately became fearful.

The Hall of Souls was too horrifying. They actually ate people's souls raw. Would they be eaten by these monsters if they went?

Na Lan Yan Ran had seen powerhouses from the Hall of Souls before. Last time at the Ten Thousand Scorpion Gate, she had truly experienced the strength of their experts. Now, hearing Qing Lin's words, she felt the same.

Ye Qianqian cajoled, "You all misunderstand the Hall of Souls. It's not as scary as you think. Those ugly-looking guys are just trying to scare people. It's actually an entertainment project of the Hall of Souls."

"Entertainment project?" The other women were confused.

"Yes, an entertainment project," Ye Qianqian spouted nonsense with a clear conscience. "The Hall of Souls' mission is to scare people, aiming to provide a thrilling sensory experience of fear and a new kind of excitement. Their service motto is to scare tourist groups visiting them, while also bringing economic benefits to their enterprise. You've all misunderstood the Hall of Souls; they are good people!"

Qing Lin: "..."

Mo Youyou: "..."

Na Lan Yan Ran: "..."

It seemed the most terrifying thing in the world wasn't the Hall of Souls, but Ye Qianqian, who spoke utter nonsense. With just a few words, she had completely whitewashed the Hall of Souls.

"Ancestor, is what you're saying true?" Na Lan Yan Ran asked with some doubt. How could she explain the Iron Protector from last time?

Ye Qianqian nodded solemnly. "Of course, it's true. Yan Ran, don't be influenced by the Iron Protector incident. Based on my guess, that Iron Protector might have been a trash employee fired by the Hall of Souls, which is why he acted out. Honestly, the Hall of Souls is indeed a very good, conscientious enterprise."

If Hun Miesheng heard this, he would definitely curse. So, in your opinion, the Hall of Souls I established is just for entertainment and fun?

The women breathed a sigh of relief, patting their perky chests. So the Hall of Souls was that fun? Then they wanted to go experience it too.

"Then, Ancestor, do you know where to find the Hall of Souls?" Qing Lin asked.

"This..." Ye Qianqian fell into thought.

She really didn't know the location of the Hall of Souls branch in the Northwest Continent. It would be too embarrassing to go back and ask Xie Biyan and the others. So, she decided to use the communication system space.

"Ding"

System is filtering recommended options...

Recommendation 1: Dou Qi Continent Coordinate Instrument, can locate various sects on the continent, Price: 1 billion Shock Points.

Recommendation 2: Soul-Devouring Divine Dog, this dog can search for various soul auras, Price: 500 million Shock Points.

Recommendation 3: Soul-Soul Fruit, this fruit comes from the world of One Piece. One of the Four Emperors, Charlotte Linlin, possesses the ability to sense souls, Price: 300 million Shock Points.

Recommendation 4: ...

The system didn't give her the answer but instead made her spend Shock Points.

Ye Qianqian checked and saw that she had a little over 500 million Shock Points left from the past few days.

"Buying a pet is a bit of a bad deal. I'll take the Soul-Soul Fruit."

Devil Fruits could enhance her abilities, which was exactly what she needed.

After exchanging for the Soul-Soul Fruit and using Shock Points to strengthen the side effect of fearing seawater, Ye Qianqian took a bite.

Instantly, a disgusting taste made her gag, but she also gained the ability.

Closing her eyes, she used the Soul-Soul Fruit's ability to sense. She could clearly feel a large number of evil souls drifting thousands of miles away from the Misty Cloud Sect.

Those souls were in a vast desert. She figured it must be the location of the Hall of Souls.

"It's so close to the Misty Cloud Sect?" Ye Qianqian leaped up and flew towards the Hall of Souls.

"Ancestor, we can't fly!" Na Lan Yan Ran and the other women shouted.

Ye Qianqian chuckled. She had forgotten about them. "I don't care. If you can't keep up, I'll go to the Hall of Souls alone."

"Ah?" The three women stomped their feet in anger. "Ancestor, how can you be like this!"

Suddenly, six streams of light shot down from the sky, hitting the three women in an instant. The three women felt a burning pain in their backs. As they circulated their Dou Qi, a pair of demonic beast wings extended from each of them.

"Wow, Ancestor gave us each a pair of wings!"

The three women exclaimed in surprise and quickly flew into the sky, chasing after Ye Qianqian in the distance.

'To the Hall Master Hun Miesheng, your subordinate has important information to report. A major upheaval has occurred in the Northwest Continent. The Misty Cloud Sect has risen powerfully and is unstoppable, having successively annexed the countries of Chuyun, Mulan, and Yanluo. Later, they forcefully brought the Heavenly Snake Mansion under their control. A supreme powerhouse has also emerged from the Misty Cloud Sect. The situation in the Northwest has far exceeded our expectations. We request that the Central Continent main hall dispatch an Elder to resolve this matter. Respectfully, Wang Ba, Hall Master of the Northwest Continent Branch...'

Inside the branch hall, Wang Ba quickly finished writing a secret letter, his eyes filled with terror.

Because he had followed the bad advice of the dog-headed strategist Zhou Tong and made the Heavenly Snake Mansion and the Misty Cloud Sect fight each other, the matter might be exposed. If that Misty Cloud Sect Ancestor really came seeking revenge, he might lose his life.

The only way now was to seek help from the Central Continent headquarters and have them send more capable individuals. This was what he most hoped for.

"Someone, deliver this secret letter to the Central Continent headquarters immediately, without delay!" Wang Ba shouted.

Just then, a Hall of Souls expert suddenly ran over and knelt on the ground.

"Reporting to the Hall Master, something terrible has happened. Several enemies have appeared outside the Hall. We are no match for them."

"What?" Wang Ba's heart jolted, and he asked tremblingly, "Is it a white-haired woman with horns on her head, or a five or six-year-old girl?"

If it were the Misty Cloud Sect, that woman named Otsutsuki Kaguya, and the Misty Cloud Ancestor, then it would be terrible.

"There's only a little girl, whose cultivation is the same as the Hall Master's, a Dou Venerate expert. She's also leading three young girls, two Dou Grandmasters and one Dou Practitioner."

Hearing his subordinate's words, Wang Ba was still terrified.

That Misty Cloud Sect Ancestor, Ye Qianqian, had extraordinary strength. He still vividly remembered the scene where she used a saber to slaughter the Heavenly Snake Mansion experts.

"Quick, close the main gate of the Hall of Souls for me. Don't let them in. Hurry!"

"Yes."

Outside the Hall of Souls.

"Wow, you scared me to death."

Looking at the countless skeletons crawling out from beneath the desert, Na Lan Yan Ran and the other two girls were terrified.

These skeletons were all Dou Grandmaster strength, wielding bone scythes. They slowly surrounded Ye Qianqian and the others, their jaws clicking.

Ye Qianqian flicked her finger, and the surrounding space trembled slightly. All the skeletons immediately fell apart.

However, this was just the beginning. After the skeleton army was annihilated, a large number of red-eyed crows flew down from the sky. As if infected with a zombie virus, they intended to peck away the flesh of the women, but they were still completely eliminated by Ye Qianqian.

"Halt! Who dares to act presumptuously outside my Hall of Souls?"

A group of experts flew over from a distance. Dou Spirits, Dou Kings, Dou Emperors, Dou Ancestors – countless of them. They were all wrapped in black, deathly energy, their appearances ugly and ferocious, yet no one dared to underestimate them.

"Ancestor, look at them. They seem to want to kill us. Is this really a performance, like you said?" Qing Lin was so scared that she hid behind Na Lan Yan Ran.

"Of course, it's a performance. Their acting is very convincing," Ye Qianqian chuckled, not taking the approaching people seriously. She grabbed at them from afar with her large hand, "Don't believe me? Watch."

"Ahhh..."

In an instant, all the Hall of Souls experts wailed and fell to the ground, losing their ability to resist.

"Wow, that was so realistic," Mo Youyou was no longer afraid. She walked up to a Dou Spirit expert and crouched down, asking, "Uncle, you're so dedicated. How much is your annual salary?"

Hall of Souls Dou Spirit: "..."

Ye Qianqian said, "My disciple is asking you a question."

The Hall of Souls Dou Spirit was so scared by Ye Qianqian's cruel smile that he started crying and trembling, "One... one Dou Spirit Pill-level medicinal pill per year, or a Mysterious Tier Dou Qi cultivation method and Dou Skill."

"Oh, the treatment is not bad," Mo Youyou nodded blankly and took out a gold coin, placing it in the Hall of Souls Dou Spirit's hand. "You gave the most realistic performance just now, Uncle. This is a tip for you."

Hall of Souls Expert: "..."

Were they being mocked?

Ye Qianqian's mouth twitched. She wondered what was going on in Mo Youyou's head.

The group went around and finally arrived at the entrance of the branch hall.

Seeing the gate tightly shut, Qing Lin poked her little head out from behind Na Lan Yan Ran, curiously asking, "Ancestor, have the people inside the Hall of Souls all gotten off work? Maybe we should go back. It's a bit scary here."

"Off work?" Ye Qianqian smiled and turned to Na Lan Yan Ran, "Yan Ran, go knock on the door."

Na Lan Yan Ran bravely walked to the door step by step and gently tapped the iron ring on the door with her hand, "Is... is anyone there? Open for business, we want to come in and play."

Na Lan Yan Ran called out softly for a long time, but no one opened the door. Ye Qianqian strode forward.

"Yan Ran, calling like that is useless. Watch me teach you how to call the door, Ancestor."

Ye Qianqian put her left hand on her hip, circulated her Dou Qi with her right hand, and heavily slapped the door, shaking it violently. She shouted:

"Open the door! Open the door! You bitch, hurry up and open the door! If you have the guts to steal souls, why don't you have the guts to open the door! Open the door! Open the door! You bitch, hurry up and open the door! If you have the guts to cause trouble, why don't you have the guts to open the door! Don't hide inside and stay silent, I know you're home. Ah ha ha ha ha ha, you bitch, hurry up and open the door!"

The shouts of the Dou Venerate expert, amplified by Dou Qi, shook the palace in front of them violently. The thick gate was smashed by Ye Qianqian until it cracked like a spiderweb, and finally collapsed with a loud bang, dust billowing everywhere.

As the gate was broken open, Wang Ba and Zhou Tong's panicked expressions were seen clearly by Ye Qianqian and the others.

"You, you, what do you want to do? I'm not afraid of you. The Hall of Souls is not a place you can just come to," Wang Ba said, retreating in fear.

Ye Qianqian smiled slightly and said, "My senior sister is nearby."

Wang Ba: "..."

"Ding"

Congratulations to the host for obtaining 10,000 Shock Points from Wang Ba.
