Saint Gu You's Confusion

"Who exactly are you?" A figure shrouded in black robes, speaking in a hoarse voice, questioned the mysterious powerhouse who had suddenly brandished his sword at them, his voice laced with shock and anger. He coldly threatened, "Don't you know how terrifying my Soul Hall is?"

"Soul Hall?" At this moment, the mysterious powerhouse shrouded in mist finally spoke, but to the disappointment of the Soul Hall members, his voice was also fake.

"That's right!" However, he was still very happy, thinking that the other party was afraid of the reputation of their Soul Hall and wanted to back down.

He wasn't entirely without sense, and his tone quickly softened. "If you leave now, my Soul Hall will absolutely not pursue the matter further, how about it?"

Although he was mentally planning to find out the identity of this mysterious expert and report it to the higher-ups, that didn't stop him from deceiving people.

"I never expected this mysterious expert to be so naive," the Soul Hall member sneered inwardly.

But...

To his surprise, the powerful figure only paused briefly before intensifying his attack, shouting, "I'm going to beat up you beasts from the Soul Hall!"

"Boom!"

A fierce Dou Qi Stream pierced through the Soul Hall man's body. Before losing consciousness, he vaguely saw a white-clad figure brush past him and walk towards his subordinates.

Hearing the other party leave with a nonchalant remark. "Go to hell and repent!"

Then everything went black, and he lost all consciousness.

"Fight him!" The other Hall of Souls Protector, seeing their strongest Venerable Elder easily killed without any resistance, panicked and charged towards the white-robed man without fear of death.

"Drink!"

The numerous Protector simultaneously unleashed their strongest attacks, dozens of chains weaving into a giant black net that covered the man in white.

"A trivial skill!"

The man in white stopped and waited quietly for the attack to begin.

"Arrogant! Heh heh heh~"

The Protector were overjoyed, never expecting this mysterious powerhouse to be so arrogant, failing to dodge or evade their combined attack.

"Hey!" Just as the attack was about to land on the powerful figure, he sighed, "A bunch of Dou Zong actually dare to face Dou Zun expert head-on, I truly admire your courage!"

He didn't make any move; he simply waved his hand casually, and the immense energy pressure directly shattered all the attacks.

"Now it's my turn."

"Quick... retreat!" The Hall of Souls Protector saw that their strongest killing moves hadn't even made a splash in front of this powerful figure.

He had completely lost the courage to fight this powerful figure, his mind trembled violently, and he prepared to run away.

"Run?" The mysterious powerhouse chuckled. "You can stay here forever; becoming nourishment for this world isn't so bad!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the man moved slightly and reappeared in the same spot in just a few breaths.

Behind them lay rows of terrified ice sculptures. The white-robed expert snapped his fingers lightly, and the ice sculptures silently crumbled into dust, scattering in the wind.

"Ah, dealing with a Dou Zun and more than ten Dou Zong is really too difficult." After everything was over, the man clapped his hands and said with a sigh.

"You also need to control your strength so you don't crush the opponent in one go. That's tough!"

Judging from the tone of his voice, it was naturally Xiao Han, who was traveling around outside of Central Plains.

Xiao Han looked at the Soul Hall Venerable Elder whose eyes were wide open in resentment and couldn't help but feel disdain.

However, Xiao Han's face soon darkened, and he said with annoyance, "I've been busy lately, and I actually forgot that those bastards from the Soul Hall were going to set up the Soul Devouring Life Extinction Array."

The Soul Devouring Life Extinction Array was the biggest accomplice used by the Soul Emperor in the later stages to sacrifice flesh and blood from the Central Plains in order to refine Emperor Grade Medicinal Pills.

The thought of such an evil and dangerous formation sent chills down Xiao Han's spine.

However, Xiao Han was always busy (slacking off) and forgot about this.

This time, Xiao Han was lucky, but the Soul Hall was unlucky. By sheer coincidence, Xiao Han, who had temporarily returned to Central Plains, ran into the group of the Soul Hall people who were setting up the Soul Devouring Life Extinction Array.

Then comes the much-anticipated "smashing noobs" part.

Xiao Han used all his strength (and proceeded with extreme caution) to wipe out this group of the Soul Hall members.

"Now let's see what kind of trouble the Soul Hall will cause this time!" Xiao Han's lips curled into a wicked smile.

Xiao Han was very clear that since the Soul Devouring Life Extinction Array was currently in the setup phase, it would definitely be designed to ensure that nothing went wrong.

In other words, the Soul Hall will soon discover that these people from the Soul Hall have been killed, and the investigators will arrive within a day.

Xiao Han even specially helped them leave behind the corpse of a Soul Hall Venerable Elder, so that the other party could use it for soul searching.

As for who the mysterious Dou Zun saw before his death was, that's none of Xiao Han's business.

After all, the Soul Hall has offended a lot of people. Who knew that this unlucky group would be so unlucky as to run into a powerful figure and be killed?

As for why Xiao Han didn't destroy all the evidence?

Causing a little trouble for the Soul Hall is already a basic operation for him. It has no effect on them and is just a way to annoy them.

"Investigate then..." Xiao Han's lips curled into a smile. "I want to see what your Soul Hall can find out."

Then, Xiao Han directly entered the Space Rift. Traveling through the Void Space, unless one belongs to a race with exceptional talent in the Dao of Space, it would be extremely difficult to pinpoint Xiao Han's location.

Given Xiao Han's cultivation level, even if the Soul Emperor himself came, he might not be able to find any trace of him. Perhaps it would be more possible if it were the Old Dragon Emperor, Zhu Kun, the Void Ancient Dragon of the Void.

As Xiao Han had expected, less than half a day after he left, two figures appeared here with solemn expressions.

One of the old men, whose eyes flickered with ghostly flames, was none other than the "repeatedly defeated" Second Heavenly Venerable. Behind him followed a blue figure— Nine Heavens Venerable, Mo Yu.

"My lord, this place is very clean. Apart from Yi Mu's corpse, there are no traces whatsoever." After surveying the surrounding area, the Nine Heavens Venerable reported to the Saint Gu You, his words extremely respectful.

After all, although the Second Heavenly Venerable had no dignity as a strongman in the Dou Sheng circle, he was still a very respectable existence in the eyes of people like the Nine Heavens Venerable.

Yi Mu was the name of the Venerable Elder who was killed by Xiao Han. It wouldn't be a disservice to him to have his name left in front of Dou Sheng Expert after his death.

Green flames flickered in the skeletal eyes of the Saint Gu You. His bony hand slightly bent, and a surge of suction force pulled Yi Mu's corpse into his grasp.

With his other hand covering the latter's head, his Dou Qi surged, and he began to read Yi Mu's memories.

After a while, the Saint Gu You withdrew his hand with a furrowed brow, casually shaking Yi Mu's corpse into a blood mist. The Nine Heavens Venerable also seemed unsurprised, thinking that since the body was dead, there was no need to care so much.

"A mysterious Dou Zun expert?" Saint Gu You asked, puzzled. The reason Saint Gu You and Nine Heavens Venerable were brought here was not because of the Soul Hall cannon fodder like Yi Mu.

Instead, the Soul Hall was worried that the Soul Devouring Life Extinction Array might have been discovered. However, based on the Soul Search performed by the Saint Gu You just now, it seemed to be an unintentional act by a powerful figure who harbored hatred towards the Soul Hall.

This kind of thing is like drinking a glass of water to the Soul Hall. Although one of the Venerable Elder died, the Venerable Elder are not a small number to the Soul Hall.

However, the Saint Gu You sensed something unusual about this matter, but having no evidence, he could only let it go.

"Report the situation here to the Vice Hall Master."

"Yes!"

Since the battle between Hun Miesheng and Xiao Han, they have been in seclusion upon returning to the Soul Hall. All affairs of the Soul Hall are now handled by the Vice Hall Master.

Now that the people who set up the Soul Devouring Life Extinction Array have encountered an unexpected situation, regardless of the opponent's strength, they should report it to the Vice Hall Master.
