Making a Ruckus in Slaughter City

"No, neither the Sea God nor the Thunder God would dare act so blatantly, interfering in mortal affairs to strike at me."

"If they could, never mind waiting for the Thunder God to find out—the Sea God would have already made a move against me." Ye Wen shook his head with a smile, utterly certain of this.

Evil Tiger and Xiao Bai exchanged a glance, feeling much more at ease inside.

"Alright, I should get some proper rest. As for those Immortal Herbs, we'll absorb them once our ranks reach the second ring." Ye Wen dropped the topic.

"Got it."

The three of them sat in the carriage, heading straight for Slaughter City.

Right now, Ye Wen was at level 16, Evil Tiger and Xiao Bai at level 15. The Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and Infernal Delicate Apricot were Immortal Herbs that strengthened the body, so absorbing them early was fine.

But those herbs that fortified the foundation, improved aptitude, and boosted Soul Power—absorbing them now would be a waste.

Because they might jump 6 or 7 levels in one go. Even though Soul Beasts didn't need to hunt for Soul Rings, they still had to condense their rings first before leveling up. So they had to wait.

Soon, after nearly half a month of travel, just as they were about to reach Slaughter City, Ye Wen's Soul Power broke through again to level 17, while Evil Tiger and Xiao Bai reached level 16.

Now, the three of them had arrived at the black Small Town that served as the entrance to Slaughter City.

"Let's go."

Ye Wen led Evil Tiger and Xiao Bai straight into the black Small Town and entered a tavern—one of the entrances to Slaughter City.

The basic requirement to enter Slaughter City was to drink a cup of Bloody Mary, also known as Yellow Springs Dew. This stuff was refined from human blood, and Ye Wen had no interest in it.

So he didn't plan to drink it. Instead, he would force his way in.

"Evil Tiger, smash this floor." As soon as Ye Wen entered, he pointed at the ground, knowing the entrance was right there.

"Wait! What do you want?!"

The next second, Evil Tiger punched the ground, shattering it and revealing a tunnel below.

Seeing such terrifying strength, the shopkeeper was scared stiff, stammering in terror: "You! You! This kind of behavior has broken the rules of Slaughter City! You'll face the punishment of Slaughter City!"

"Punishment? Bring it on. Let's go!" Ye Wen showed no fear, leading Evil Tiger and Xiao Bai as they leaped into the tunnel.

"Yes!"

A few seconds later.

An unstable spatial vortex appeared in midair. Ye Wen and the other two emerged together, landing in the Otherworld Space where Slaughter City was located.

Xiao Bai looked around curiously.

Before them was a massive city surrounded by high walls on all sides. They stood on a bridge outside the city gates.

At the city gate and along both sides stood a group of soldiers clad in black armor.

There was no day, no night—only the crimson moon in the sky, illuminating a red night.

The entire space was filled with the aura of slaughter and a bloody stench.

"So this is Slaughter City? It's kind of unsettling." Xiao Bai frowned, not liking this environment.

Evil Tiger, on the other hand, was excited: "I think this place suits me perfectly."

Ye Wen said, "Slaughter City is an independent space created by a very powerful God King in the God Realm—the Asura God. It's also where the Asura God left behind a place to choose his successor."

"This place is isolated from the outside world. You can only enter, not leave—unless you complete a hundred consecutive wins in the Hell Slaughter Arena, then pass through Hell Road to earn the title of Slaughter God and the Slaughter God's Domain, allowing free passage in and out."

"It's also a paradise of sin. Killing is not forbidden here. You can do whatever you want—of course, as long as you have enough strength."

"But we're not here to kill people. We're here to deal with the Slaughter King, then break through Hell Road and leave."

"Boss, do you have a plan?" Evil Tiger and Xiao Bai asked.

A smile curled at the corner of Ye Wen's mouth: "Heh, how about we raise hell in Slaughter City?"

Evil Tiger's eyes lit up: "Boss, you mean to lure out the Slaughter King that way?"

"Exactly! It's the fastest method I can think of."

Their Semi-human Form had a time limit for existing on land. They couldn't afford to take it slow—they had to use the fastest way possible, within the time their Semi-human Form lasted, to subdue the Nine-Headed Bat King parasitizing Tang Chen, the Slaughter King.

Evil Tiger started getting pumped: "Alright! Boss, let's do it—raise hell in Slaughter City!"

In Slaughter City, Soul Skills granted by Soul Rings couldn't be used, but Soul Power, Martial Souls, and Soul Bone Skills were still usable.

For human Soul Masters, their strength was greatly limited here. But for Soul Beasts, it had no effect at all—because a Soul Beast's skills weren't executed through Soul Rings!

Yo!

At that moment, a knight riding a warhorse appeared before Ye Wen and the other two.

He had a majestic aura, imposing and extraordinary, looking quite impressive. Seated on his horse, he looked down at Ye Wen and the others and said, "I am Terror Knight Scott. You have violated the rules of Slaughter City. Defeat me, and you will earn the right to enter Slaughter City."

With that, the knight raised his sword and charged on his horse.

But Ye Wen and the others didn't even acknowledge him. They casually walked past Terror Knight Scott.

Terror Knight Scott: ??????

Didn't I say it? You have to beat me to get in!

Can't you understand?

"What do you think you're doing, trying to force your way in?"

"Idiots, this is Slaughter City!"

"There's no way you can break in!"

The Terror Knight turned around with a dumbfounded look and asked, "What are you doing?"

Ye Wen turned back and replied, "Obviously forcing our way into Slaughter City."

Terror Knight: "..."

"Ah, how ignorant and foolish people are!" The Terror Knight shook his head helplessly, casually waved his hand, and said, "Kill them."

"Yes!"

The hundreds of knights around began their assault.

Yet, the next second.

"Demonic Whale Raging Waves Slash!"

"Orca Evil Axe!"

"Demon Shark's Tooth!"

Whoosh! Bang bang bang bang!

"Ahhhh!!"

In an instant, all kinds of screams rang out. Over half of the several hundred soldiers were blasted away by the skills of Ye Wen and his two companions, lying half-dead on the ground.

"What the hell."

"How... how is that possible!!!"

The Terror Knight's mouth hung open, stunned, frozen in place on the spot.

What's going on?

If they're this strong, they could just beat me and walk right in!

Why force their way in?

He couldn't figure it out, but there was no time to dwell on it. He shouted urgently, "Stop them! They must not be allowed into Slaughter City!"

"In a thousand years! No one has ever forced their way into our Slaughter City!"

"If they get in, what face will Slaughter City have left!"

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

"Stop them!!"

The remaining soldiers swarmed in again.

"You can't stop us." Ye Wen smirked, and the next second, terrifying energy surged up: "Deep Sea Demonic Whale Wave!"
