"What nonsense are you talking about?" The King of Slaughter looked utterly bewildered. Why were these people calling him that?
"Tang Chen! I've come to save you!" Bo Saixi looked at the King of Slaughter before her—or rather, the parasitized Tang Chen—and felt nothing but pain.
The man she had always regarded as incomparably powerful and dazzling had reached Rank 99, becoming a Limit Douluo, solely through his top-tier martial soul.
He had even been able to contend with the two of them, both Limit Douluo, and was known as invincible on land.
Yet because of her, and because of that so-called promise he had made, he had chosen to pursue a divine trial.
He came to Slaughter City, only to be parasitized and turned into a horrifying monster fused with a bat. Bo Saixi felt her heart ache. If not for that so-called promise of hers, Tang Chen would never have become like this!
"Senior Bo Saixi! It's time to make a move! Grandfather is still being parasitized by that monster and hasn't returned to normal yet! We can only rely on you!"
Tang Xiao and the Clear Sky Sect elders took out their Clear Sky Hammers, ready at any moment to protect Bo Saixi and guard against the members of Slaughter City.
"Looks like you are either relatives of this body or people important to it. I have to say, the body of a Rank 99 Limit Douluo truly is incredible.
Having such a body makes me feel absolutely wonderful. Unfortunately, you may not know that in Slaughter City, only I and my envoys, such as the Death Knights, are qualified to use soul skills. Outsiders like you have no way of using soul skills."
The King of Slaughter spoke excitedly, then directly revealed his martial soul—Tang Chen's martial soul. The weapon martial soul of a Tool Soul Master, the number one weapon martial soul in the world: the Clear Sky Hammer.
"King of Slaughter! No—Blood Red Nine-Headed Bat King! You parasitized Tang Chen, the sect master of our Clear Sky Sect, while he was weak, at the crucial moment of his divine trial. We of the Clear Sky Sect will remember this debt. We came here to rescue our Clear Sky Sect Master!
Return his body now, and we may still spare your life!" Tang Xiao shouted furiously, venting his anger. But those words were only meant to deceive himself. How could he—or anyone from the Clear Sky Sect—possibly spare the Blood Red Nine-Headed Bat King?
The Blood Red Nine-Headed Bat King had parasitized Tang Chen at the critical moment of his divine trial. Because of this, the Clear Sky Sect had lost Tang Chen's protection. After all these years, how could they possibly let this creature go?
Tang Xiao said it only to make the creature leave Tang Chen's body as quickly as possible.
"What a joke. Here, in Slaughter City, even a Rank 99 Limit Douluo cannot use soul skills. That woman is a Rank 99 Limit Douluo. She must be the woman this guy loved. But even a Rank 99 Limit Douluo can't use soul skills here. Do I need to fear you? At most, you're just a bunch of Spirit Douluos.
Even a Titled Douluo could be killed here by a Soul King. Do you think I need to fear you? Do you think I need to be afraid of giving up this body? You are the ones who should be afraid. Don't you think what you said is utterly ridiculous? Hahaha!"
The King of Slaughter spoke in a mocking tone.
"Indeed, ordinary Limit Douluos and Spirit Douluos cannot release soul skills in Slaughter City. But you have misjudged my identity. I am not quite what you imagined."
Bo Saixi found it somewhat amusing.
"I, Bo Saixi, am Lord Sea God's envoy, Lord Sea God's servant in the mortal world, the Sea God's High Priest, and the one responsible for overseeing the Sea God Divine Trial. I have a divine artifact to deal with you. I do not need soul skills."
After saying that, Bo Saixi immediately took out the divine artifact—the Sea God Trident!
The Sea God Trident.
The Sea God's Super Divine Artifact, weighing one hundred and eight thousand jin. As the Sea God's High Priest, Bo Saixi could not wield it fully, but with her terrifying demigod-level strength, she was one of the few humans capable of barely lifting this divine artifact.
Moreover, through the Sea God Trident, Bo Saixi could use some of its unique abilities, including the Sea God's Sea God's Light.
"Sea God, I beseech you to save the person important to me! Sea God's Light!"
Bo Saixi immediately unleashed the Sea God's Light. In an instant, the bodies of all these killers—including the Fallen Soul Masters, and even the parasitized Tang Chen—began to change.
They were already people corrupted by darkness, relying on slaughter to absorb Soul Power and cultivating through evil methods. Thus, when faced with the Sea God, an existence possessing the attributes of light and ocean, they naturally suffered devastatingly effective damage.
"No!!! This body was so hard for me to find! How could I possibly give it up?!" The King of Slaughter still tried to resist, but Bo Saixi had no intention of holding back. She immediately increased her power, and before long, everyone present—
Other than Bo Saixi and the people from the Clear Sky Sect, everyone else, including the people of Slaughter City, fainted. Tang Chen was also freed from the parasite at that moment.
"Xixi!" Tang Chen looked at Bo Saixi in disbelief. Then, seeing the Clear Sky Hammers, Tang Chen immediately recognized them as his nephews, including his grandson.
"Great-Uncle!" x7
When the Clear Sky Sect elders saw that their spiritual totem had returned, they immediately rushed forward and embraced Tang Chen.
"Grandfather, we have waited for you for so long. After you disappeared, our Clear Sky Sect has always..." Tang Xiao had wanted to explain what had happened in his previous life, but ultimately decided to wait until they returned to the Clear Sky Sect.
"Tang Chen! You fool, I chose you back then! Qian Daoliu and I were both servants of gods in the mortal world. How could we possibly become gods ourselves? What I meant by those words was that I had chosen you, yet you stupidly went looking for some divine trial?!
You nearly got yourself killed because of it. If it weren't for me, if you kept going like this, you would have died sooner or later. You fool!"
Bo Saixi was truly angry now. But her anger stemmed from Tang Chen's foolishness, as well as her dissatisfaction with her own words. She had never expected Tang Chen to truly seek out a divine trial because of that sentence. If she had confessed directly back then, perhaps things would not have turned out this way.
"Really? So you chose me back then? Is that true, Xixi?"
"That's right. I chose you back then. You simply never understood what I meant. I was turning Qian Daoliu down tactfully and giving that angel's servant a way to save face."
"So I was the winner after all. From the very beginning, I had your affection. So that's how it was!"
