Punching Through the Slaughter City Gates, the Slaughter King Appears

Massive energy formed a hundred-meter-tall giant wave that crashed forward.

"Holy... holy shit!!"

"Ahh! Ahhhh!!"

Every soldier's face twisted with sheer terror and fear as they stared at the hundred-meter wave, frozen in shock.

"No! No way!"

Pfft!

Boom!!

With one strike, hundreds of soldiers collapsed to the ground.

"So terrifying! So terrifying!"

"Who... who are they?"

The Terror Knight stared in disbelief, nearly falling off his warhorse from fright.

The three had already reached the city gates. Xiao Bai glanced up at the wall's height and asked, "Boss? What's the plan—climb over?"

"No need. You two, step aside."

"Oh, okay."

The Evil Tiger and Xiao Bai moved to the side.

Ye Wen rolled up his sleeves and cracked his knuckles.

The Terror Knight's eyes went wide: "What's he planning? He's not thinking of smashing the city gate, is he? Is he insane?! That's made of top-tier Black Iron—there's no way a single punch can—"

Boom! Crash! Rumble!!

The massive front gate shattered into pieces under Ye Wen's terrifying punch, the entire iron door collapsing and crashing heavily to the ground.

"Holy shit!!!!"

"This isn't real! This isn't real! How can someone this strong exist!"

The Terror Knight was utterly terrified. All the soldiers lying on the ground gaped, mouths wide, staring at the scene in disbelief.

Ye Wen dusted off his hands and said nonchalantly, "The gate is pretty sturdy. Took a bit of force to break it. Let's go in."

"Mm-hmm."

"A... a bit!?"

And so, under the stunned gazes of the crowd, the three stepped into Slaughter City.

"The gate is breached! The gate is breached!"

"Requesting backup!!!"

"Three unknown powerhouses have smashed through the gate and entered Slaughter City!!"

"Stop them!"

"Hurry! Notify the God of Slaughter!!!"

In that moment, Slaughter City erupted into utter chaos.

A flood of troops loyal to Slaughter City began rushing toward the gate, intent on intercepting Ye Wen and his two companions.

Meanwhile, the God of Slaughter was in his chambers, engaged in indecent acts with a Veiled Maid.

This veiled woman was the most favored maid by the God of Slaughter's side, also known as the God of Slaughter's representative, the Messenger of the Slaughter King.

"My King! You! You're so strong! Mm~"

"Hahahaha! Of course I am! Stay nice and low for your King!"

The God of Slaughter laughed lecherously, thoroughly enjoying himself.

Just then, a panicked, urgent voice came from outside the door: "My King! Great God of Slaughter! Something terrible has happened!!"

The God of Slaughter scowled, annoyed at the interruption. "What is it? Speak properly, don't come in here flustered!"

"My King! Don't stop! Don't stop the surge of your power against me," the veiled woman panted softly.

"Heh, don't worry." The God of Slaughter glanced at her with a smirk.

"My King! Three unknown powerhouses have forcibly broken into Slaughter City!" the soldier outside reported.

"Oh? In a thousand years, nothing like this has ever happened in Slaughter City. Someone dares to force their way in? Hah, just send men to kill them. Why report this to me?" The God of Slaughter was mildly surprised but still dismissive.

"They... they smashed through the city gate to get in! Most of our forces are nearly all defeated by them!!"

"The strength of those three is beyond extraordinary!!"

"What?!" The God of Slaughter roughly shoved the veiled woman aside, finally showing some urgency.

"Ahh~ My King, you're so rough..." The veiled woman winced at the harsh push, annoyed.

"Unbelievable. So many of you couldn't stop three people? Who are they? One of the Gods of Slaughter?" The God of Slaughter had lost all interest now, pushing open the door and stepping out.

"No, not a God of Slaughter. They don't use Soul Skills, but they wield multiple powerful techniques. Our men can't hold them back at all, my King!"

"Hmph! A bunch of trash, forcing me to personally come and kill them." The Slaughter King glanced over, and the next second, he vanished from where he stood.

Soon, he appeared in the sky, flapping his blood-red bat wings as he rushed over at top speed.

Meanwhile, at the Outer City of Slaughter City.

Hundreds, even thousands of people had all been taken down by Ye Wen, Evil Tiger, and Xiao Bai—some dead, some wounded.

"Boss, this Slaughter King should be showing up any time now." Evil Tiger said with great satisfaction. Ever since he'd followed Ye Wen, he hadn't had a fight this exhilarating in a long time, and it felt damn good.

"He's already here." Ye Wen slowly turned around, gazing into the distance. He could already sense it—the Slaughter King's aura rapidly closing in.

Sure enough, before long, the Slaughter King's figure appeared in the distant sky, rushing over like a vampire.

Whoosh! Bang!

The next second, the Slaughter King's body landed instantly in front of Ye Wen, Evil Tiger, and Xiao Bai.

"So it's you who smashed the gates of my Slaughter City and beat my subordinates into this state!" The Slaughter King's body radiated an evil killing intent, thick with a bloody stench that made Evil Tiger and Xiao Bai feel deeply wary.

Seeing the Slaughter King appear, a smile finally crept onto Ye Wen's lips: "That's right, it was us."

"So this is the Slaughter King? Judging by his aura, even in my soul beast form, I'm probably no match for him." Xiao Bai's expression turned grim.

Evil Tiger nodded as well: "I don't think I could beat him in my soul beast form either."

"When the fight starts, leave the Slaughter King to me. You two clean up the rest of the small fry." Ye Wen said with a faint smile.

He knew very well that the Slaughter King was Tang Chen at Peak Level 99, a man with strength equivalent to a demigod.

But Tang Hao, now parasitized by the Nine-Headed Bat King and turned into the Slaughter King, had his power severely diminished. He didn't have demigod-level strength at all—whether he even had Level 99 was questionable. At most, he was around Level 96, barely matching the strength of a Level 97 Titled Douluo.

Moreover, under the Nine-Headed Bat King's control, he couldn't use that divine weapon, the Asura Demon Sword.

(To avoid getting flamed, I have to force an explanation here. Check the original novel, chapters 626 and 628. Initially, the novel states that the Slaughter King's strength was no less than Sea Dragon Douluo's, and Sea Dragon Douluo was at most a Level 96 combatant. Later, during the battle, under the influence of the Sea God's Trident and Sea God's Light, the Nine-Headed Bat King lost control of its parasitic host and croaked, causing the Slaughter King's power to multiply explosively. At that point, Tang Chen's strength gradually returned, and he was no longer the Slaughter King. He soon beat Tang San black and blue before regaining his senses.)

So, with Ye Wen's demigod-level power, he could completely crush the Slaughter King. As long as the Nine-Headed Bat King remained parasitizing Tang Hao's body, the current Slaughter King was no match for him at all.

And Ye Wen's power didn't have anything like Sea God's Light that could cleanse the Nine-Headed Bat King from its host. He didn't even need to remove it, because what Ye Wen wanted to subdue was precisely the Nine-Headed Bat King.

"Excellent! You've got some nerve, don't you? Do you know this is Slaughter City! This is my kingdom, the Slaughter King's domain!"
