Return to Spirit City

The sun gradually sets in the west, and dusk falls.

Inside the carriage, Hu Liena, Xie Yue, and Yan gradually awoke from their unconsciousness.

"Junior brother, where are we?" Hu Liena slowly sat up from the carriage, looking around with a blank expression.

"On the way back to Spirit City," Jun Xuehan asked calmly, opening her eyes.

"We've come out of Road to Hell?" Hu Liena looked around, her eyes filled with surprise.

"Ouch, why does my body hurt so much?" Xie Yue shifted her body, feeling Sisi of throbbing pains.

"Me too." Yan Fuhe nodded.

Jun Xuehan looked at them calmly, showing no intention of explaining. After all, Xie Yue and Yan were the ones he had thrown out of Road to Hell.

"Junior brother, we might be a little late returning to Spirit City." Hu Liena checked herself over, her face beaming with undisguised joy.

"What, Senior Sister, has your Soul Power reached the bottleneck of advancement?" Although it was a question, Jun Xuehan spoke it in the tone of a statement.

"Yes, I'm currently at the bottleneck of level 60. If I weren't in the City of Slaughter, my cultivation speed would probably be even faster." Hu Liena nodded slightly, a smile appearing on her face.

"Elder Gui, Elder Ju, could you please help me? Which of you could take Senior Sister to add a Soul Ring?" Jun Xuehan pulled back the curtain in the carriage and asked softly.

At the front of the carriage, Gui Mei and Yue Guan couldn't help but exchange a glance. The carriage slowly came to a stop, and Yue Guan stepped down from it.

"I'll take the trouble to take Nana to the nearby Soul Beast Forest to add a Soul Ring. You can return to Spirit City first." Yue Guan's somewhat effeminate voice rang out from outside the carriage.

Upon hearing this, Hu Liena immediately stepped out of the carriage and followed Yue Guan to attach a Soul Ring.

After Hu Liena stepped out of the carriage, the carriage continued its journey towards Spirit City.

"Brother Han, what are your plans after returning to Spirit City?" Yan leaned close to Jun Xuehan and asked softly.

"What plans could I possibly have? Of course, I'm making plans for my own future." Jun Xuehan put her hands behind her head, deep thought appearing in her eyes.

The words of the Asura God served as a wake-up call for him, meaning that the Asura God, or the Divine Realm, was now paying attention to him.

If I don't become a god, the Divine Realm might not care about me, but once I become a god, the Divine Realm will definitely not sit idly by.

After all, the words of the Asura God were already quite clear.

Therefore, he planned to find a few helpers. There were countless gods in the Divine Realm, and the number of inheritances they had established on the continent must be considerable. He planned to find a few talented and trustworthy people to inherit the divine positions, which would also strengthen his side's strength.

Moreover, the Angel God had told him that the Divine Realm was not monolithic; like the Divine Realm, different factions existed within it, and he might be able to win over some people in the Divine Realm.

"My Soul Power is about to reach the Soul Emperor level, and my strength is quite good. Do you want to take me with you?" Yan chuckled and said mysteriously.

"It's possible later, but not now." Jun Xuehan smiled, not agreeing for the time being.

He and Qian Renxue wouldn't stay in Spirit City for long before heading to the Heaven Dou Empire. Bringing Yan along would easily expose their identities.

"Hehe, okay, Brother Han." Yan agreed and sat down in the carriage.

Jun Xuehan and Qian Renxue exchanged a glance and smiled at each other without saying anything.

Two weeks later.

The carriage slowly drove into Spirit City and came to a stop in front of the Pope's Palace.

Jun Xuehan, Qian Renxue, Xie Yue, Yan, and others stepped out of the carriage and walked straight into the Pope's Palace.

As soon as they entered the Pope's Palace, they saw Bibi Dong sitting in the main seat, handling state affairs, looking very busy.

"Xuehan, why are only you guys back? Where is Nana?" Bibi Dong looked up at the group of people who had returned, her eyes showing surprise.

"Teacher, don't worry, Senior Sister is fine. Her Soul Power has reached the bottleneck of advancement. Elder Ju took her to the Soul Hunting Forest to attach Soul Ring, and she will be back in a few days." Jun Xuehan explained, looking at Bibi Dong.

"Hmm, very good. You all emerged from the City of Slaughter unscathed. However, you all need to rein in your killing intent." Bibi Dong smiled as she scanned them, clearly sensing the killing intent emanating from them.

Jun Xuehan's killing intent was particularly strong, even startling Bibi Dong. Bibi Dong, being a killing goddess herself, was naturally aware of the events in the City of Slaughter. To achieve Hundred Victories in the City of Slaughter, one must have stained their hands with at least several thousand souls.

The killing intent emanating from Jun Xuehan far exceeded the number of a thousand. As for how many people Jun Xuehan had killed in the City of Slaughter, he himself could no longer remember.

"Teacher, how should we conceal our killing intent?" Jun Xuehan smiled nonchalantly and asked softly.

"You don't know how to hide your killing intent? Go back and calm your mind, cultivate your character." Bibi Dong glanced at Jun Xuehan, her eyes full of smiles.

"Ahem, teacher, you haven't forgotten what we talked about before we went to slaughter them, have you? I brought them all out without missing a single one." Jun Xuehan smiled faintly, her gaze fixed on Bibi Dong ahead.

"I won't forget. Once this is over, I'll Bestow Marriage." Bibi Dong rolled her eyes and waved to them.

Upon hearing this, a faint smile involuntarily appeared on Qian Renxue's face.

"Then let's go back to the back hall first," Jun Xuehan said, then took Qian Renxue's hand and walked towards the back hall.

Watching them leave, Bibi Dong shook her head and turned to Xie Yue and Yan, asking them about the City of Slaughter.

She knew Jun Xuehan's personality very well. Even if she asked them, she would only report good news and not bad. If she wanted to know what they had experienced in the City of Slaughter, she would have to ask Xie Yue and Yan.

After Xie Yue and Yan recounted what had happened in the City of Slaughter, Bibi Dong couldn't help but glance in the direction where Jun Xuehan and Qian Renxue had left with a complicated expression.

"White robes turned into blood-stained robes, and one person chased after thousands of people. How many people were lost in that City of Slaughter?" Bibi Dong asked softly.

"It's impossible to count, but the next day, the streets of the Inner City were about a third fewer than usual. We don't know how many fewer people were in the Outer City," Xie Yue answered truthfully.
