From his first victory to his ninety-ninth, Yu Tianjun had spent two years.

He had not been in a hurry to leave. Simply killing his way through the trials would not provide sufficient tempering.

Only by experiencing every act of killing and savoring those emotions could he fulfill the purpose of coming to Slaughter City.

Bibi Dong was the same. She did not know where she could go after leaving, so she simply timed things to remain here with Yu Tianjun.

"Getting ready to leave?"

Seeing Yu Tianjun begin to pack his things, Bibi Dong asked instinctively.

Holding the few belongings he had, Yu Tianjun nodded.

"I've been tempered enough. The sooner I leave this hellish place, the better. What about you?"

Over the past two years, Yu Tianjun and Bibi Dong had become friends. After all, being stuck in such a hellish place gave them plenty in common.

Bibi Dong fell silent. "I don't know what I should do after leaving. I'm afraid my master has always had people stationed near Slaughter City."

"You'll have to face it eventually. Once I'm gone, even getting a good night's sleep will be difficult for you."

Yu Tianjun shook his head with a laugh.

Ever since Yu Tianjun had helped Bibi Dong kill a group of people who had sneaked into her room in the middle of the night a year and a half ago, the two had moved into the same room and looked after each other.

Although Bibi Dong was now infamous and honored as the Rakshasa, one person's energy was ultimately limited.

Bibi Dong shook her head, unsure how to answer. A lost expression appeared on her face.

"Think it over yourself. If you decide to leave, I can help within my capabilities, but I won't offend Spirit Hall too deeply."

Yu Tianjun said.

Hearing that, Bibi Dong could not help but smile.

"We've been together for so long. We can be considered friends, can't we? Are you really going to be so heartless?"

Yu Tianjun gave her a strange look.

"I have a sect and family behind me. Of course I won't offend a colossal force like Spirit Hall. You're not my woman, so why should I help you to the very end?"

Bibi Dong's face reddened at Yu Tianjun's blunt words.

"You've stayed in this place too long. You've become increasingly bold when you speak."

Bibi Dong's thoughts drifted, and no one knew what she was thinking.

"Creak~"

The instant he pushed open the door, dozens of desperadoes who had been waiting for a long time immediately dropped to one knee upon seeing Yu Tianjun.

"Young Master!"

Yu Tianjun waved a hand, signaling them to rise.

These were prisoners he had gathered over the past two years. They could usually help Yu Tianjun with small tasks.

Farther away, even more criminals watched the scene.

Or rather, nearly everyone in Slaughter City's inner city had gathered here.

Because they all knew Yu Tianjun had already achieved ninety-nine consecutive victories. He only lacked the final battle to gain the qualification to challenge Hell Road.

"Everyone, thank you for your care. I wonder who would be willing to contribute a cup of Bloody Mary?"

Yu Tianjun smiled. The people watching from afar immediately felt their souls flee in terror and hurriedly avoided his gaze.

None of them considered running, because anyone targeted by Yu Tianjun would not survive even fifteen minutes. They could only pray that Yu Tianjun had not set his sights on them.

But unfortunately, Yu Tianjun gave a cruel smile and pointed at one unlucky man.

"You brat, you actually clenched your left fist just now. Were you planning to assassinate me?"

As soon as Yu Tianjun's words fell, several people sprang into action.

The people beside that same unlucky man immediately cut off his head, collected a cup of Bloody Mary, and presented it to Yu Tianjun.

They did not know the unlucky man, nor did they bear any grudge against him. But in the inner city, everyone wanted to curry favor with Yu Tianjun.

Yu Tianjun accepted the Bloody Mary with a faint smile, looking somewhat arrogant.

The two years of slaughter had indeed changed him somewhat, making his conduct more unruly and violent.

Of course, his rationality remained intact. It was simply impossible to survive in this place without ruthlessness, and over time, it had become a habit.

Bibi Dong leaped through the doorway and used Martial Soul Possession. Eight spider legs pierced through six people, puncturing their abdomens and dragging them to the ground.

"Let's go. There are also the three people who offended you before. That's enough to open the Hell Slaughter Arena."

That was right. He had chosen the opponents himself.

Yu Tianjun's reputation had become too fierce over the past two years. Starting a year ago, whenever he and Bibi Dong headed toward the Hell Slaughter Arena, everyone would immediately vanish without a trace. They simply could not gather enough opponents, leaving them no choice but to use this method.

Upon arriving at the entrance of the Hell Slaughter Arena, they drained blood from the wrists of the nine people until they had collected nine cups of Bloody Mary.

"Go in. With nine against one, you still have a sliver of hope. If you stay here, you probably won't even need me to act."

Looking at the dozens of underlings attending Yu Tianjun behind him, a fierce glint flashed through the nine people's eyes. Then they strode firmly into the Hell Slaughter Arena.

They were all desperadoes. Who was afraid of whom?

...Thirty seconds later.

"One hundred consecutive victories."

Yu Tianjun flung the blood from his dragon claws and spoke indifferently.

Hearing this, Bibi Dong knew Yu Tianjun was about to leave. Her eyes were filled with reluctance.

Over these two years, some feelings had indeed changed.

From the joy of their first meeting, to the dependence she had gradually developed on Yu Tianjun as a woman, and now...

Bibi Dong's gaze gradually hardened. She then pointed directly at nine people.

"You nine, enter the Hell Slaughter Arena with me."

No one dared resist. Bibi Dong's methods against these beasts were even crueler than Yu Tianjun's.

She truly treated people like livestock.

Not long afterward, Bibi Dong stepped out, the murderous aura between her brows growing even heavier.

Yu Tianjun looked among the dozens behind him and casually selected a few.

"You should live well. Perhaps I'll come back for you later."

Everyone Yu Tianjun selected had followed him for over a year, and each possessed at least five soul rings.

If he truly obtained the inheritance of the Asura God, he could bring these people out and establish his own core force.

Five Soul Kings, three Soul Emperors, and two Soul Saints. This force could accomplish many things and would serve perfectly as one of Yu Tianjun's trump cards.

"Yes."

The ten did not dare question him and hurriedly lowered their heads, though a trace of delight still spilled uncontrollably from their eyes.

If they could leave, they truly did not wish to remain in this hellish place any longer.

Once Yu Tianjun left, no one would oversee the overall situation. Those Soul Douluo-level powerhouses would surely dominate their own territories, and the ten could be eliminated at any time as threats.

In Slaughter City, only the strongest deserved heaven-like treatment. That was also why Yu Tianjun had not taken in any Soul Douluo.

Once he left, those people would inevitably become the ones at the top and would surely be unwilling to leave.

After Yu Tianjun finished his arrangements, he noticed that a Black-Veiled Woman had appeared in the shadows at some point.

The Black-Veiled Woman looked at Yu Tianjun with some surprise.

As one of the King of Slaughter's people, the Black-Veiled Woman had naturally begun observing Yu Tianjun long ago, but this was the first time she had gotten this close.

Only upon approaching did she discover that Yu Tianjun's eyes remained clear, without the slightest sign of being tainted by killing intent. That was a terrifying phenomenon.

Within Slaughter City, the air contained a slow-acting poison. Under the effects of the toxins in the air and the stimulation of one's own killing intent, people needed blood to calm their agitation.

Over time, people became addicted. The poison in the blood made them excited and could even make them stronger.

But once the deadly poison within was triggered, perhaps no one could resist it.

Yet Yu Tianjun was completely unaffected. There was only one possibility: his physical body had reached such a high level that the toxins in the air could not affect him at all.

And the reason he had become somewhat violent and unruly now was simply because he liked acting that way.

This also meant that once Yu Tianjun cleared Hell Road and became a God of Slaughter, he would pose a threat far beyond that of an ordinary God of Slaughter!

The Black-Veiled Woman hesitated for a moment before taking the initiative to speak.

"The King of Slaughter wishes to see you."
