All Caught in One Net

"You mean, among the ten of you, there's also a Soul Ancestor?" Dongfang Yu frowned after the man in black finished speaking.

The man in black hurriedly nodded. "Y-Yes. Our leader is called Jerry, a level 43 Soul Ancestor... I've told you everything. I only beg you to give me a quick death."

Seeing that the man in black was truly on the verge of breaking down, Dongfang Yu nodded slightly. "You have to guarantee that everything you said is true."

"It's true... it's true, believe me." The man in black was nearly crying. This kid looked so young—how was he so skilled at tormenting people? Even among the Evil Soul Masters, there was no one like him.

Dongfang Yu said, "Fine. Once I've captured all of you, I'll send you on your way together."

"Thank you... thank you..." The man in black looked immensely grateful.

The corner of Dongfang Yu's mouth twitched. "Senior Sister, let's go."

"O-Okay." Hu Liena snapped back to her senses.

Martial Soul Branch Hall, the two's residence.

"Senior Sister, I think we still need to find some help." Dongfang Yu felt it was better to be cautious. He was not actually someone who did not value his life; there was no need to recklessly risk his life against Evil Soul Masters. As the saying went, a gentleman did not stand beneath a crumbling wall.

Hu Liena gave Dongfang Yu a meaningful look before saying, "Mm, I'll listen to you."

"Then I'll have to trouble Senior Sister to summon a Soul King." Dongfang Yu scratched his head and smiled somewhat shyly. There was no other way. Although he was the Pope's disciple, he did not hold much authority. His Saintess Senior Sister, on the other hand, was different. Calling in a Soul King was easy for her.

"Alright." For a moment, Hu Liena could not quite adjust. This junior brother of hers seemed like an entirely different person from before. One moment, he was a cold-blooded executioner; the next, he became an innocent child. Which one was the real him?

After Hu Liena left, Dongfang Yu fell into thought and murmured, "Once this matter is settled, it'll be time to meet Tang San... and Yu Xiaogang."

Dongfang Yu was quite looking forward to meeting both of them. There was no need to mention Tang San—he was the chosen one, immensely talented, loaded with cheats, and adored by many girls. As for Yu Xiaogang, Dongfang Yu also wanted to see him. Did this man have three heads and six arms? How else could he make Bibi Dong think about him for more than twenty years?

According to the book's description, Yu Xiaogang was a man of great ambition. He refused to be ordinary and possessed an extremely strong sense of pride. Back when Bibi Dong broke up with him, his stubborn pride made him leave without even asking for a reason. Three years later, he fell in love with his own cousin, Liu Erlong.

"Grandmaster... I'm really looking forward to meeting you." Dongfang Yu smiled and muttered to himself.

The next day, the blazing sun rose high.

Sunlight streamed through thin clouds, illuminating the vast white earth and reflecting a silvery glow so bright that it made one's eyes blur.

Dongfang Yu stood alone with his eyes closed, quietly basking in the warm sunlight. It seemed that the sunlight warmed not only his skin and flesh, but also his heart.

"Tap... tap." Hearing footsteps behind him, Dongfang Yu slowly opened his eyes. The dimness in them faded, replaced by a trace of worldly warmth.

"You sure know how to enjoy yourself, making your senior sister run errands for you." Hu Liena stood beside him. Though her words sounded displeased, her tone was full of teasing.

Dongfang Yu smiled awkwardly. "Senior Sister is simply more capable, so naturally she has to do more. As they say, with great power comes great responsibility."

Hu Liena could not help laughing. It was the first time she had realized that aside from being somewhat lecherous and crude, this little junior brother of hers was also so shameless.

"Enough teasing. I've already found the people." Hu Liena spoke softly, then called out, "Come out."

Under Dongfang Yu's gaze, two men walked over from the distance. Both appeared to be in their forties or fifties, and their presence was imposing.

"Lady Saintess, Young Master Dongfang." The two spoke respectfully.

Several black lines appeared across Dongfang Yu's forehead. Young Master was fine, but what was with adding "young"? It made him rather unhappy.

Their strength and presence were indeed impressive. The two of them should be enough. Dongfang Yu then nodded slightly to Hu Liena.

"As long as you're satisfied... you two have worked hard. Go make your preparations first." Hu Liena understood his meaning and said so.

"As you command." The two bowed, then quickly withdrew.

Dongfang Yu asked, "Senior Sister, why did you find two?"

"You don't understand this. Teacher once said that when you decide to do something, either don't do it at all, or make sure it is foolproof." Hu Liena smiled lightly.

Dongfang Yu nodded to himself. She wasn't wrong. It was always better to be cautious. Bibi Dong really was worthy of being a major boss; she was exceptionally skilled at concealing herself and lying in wait.

"Mm, thank you, Senior Sister. I've learned something." Dongfang Yu spoke earnestly.

Before long, everyone finished preparing and quietly set out. There were fifteen people in total: two Soul Kings, six Great Soul Masters, five Soul Elders, with Dongfang Yu and Hu Liena leading them.

Following the black-clad man's confession, Dongfang Yu's group arrived at their destination after an hour—a deep mountain.

"A cave..." Seeing that there truly was a cave in an inconspicuous spot ahead, Dongfang Yu murmured. According to the man in black, their group had been temporarily staying there.

"Stop." Dongfang Yu halted the group and began surveying their surroundings.

There was only the soft sound of wind blowing around them, while the dense forest occasionally rustled with the swishing of leaves.

"Go check whether there's anyone inside the cave." Dongfang Yu had one of the Soul Kings investigate.

He went quickly and returned just as quickly. The Soul King soon came back and reported, "There are around eight or nine people in the cave. One of them is indeed a Soul Ancestor, but that Soul Ancestor appears to be injured."

Hu Liena looked at Dongfang Yu. "What do we do next?"

"Leave one Soul King outside. The rest of us will go in and capture them." Since almost all of them were there, there was nothing else to discuss.

"Yes." The group swiftly rushed into the cave, and fighting soon broke out within.

Gradually, more than ten minutes passed, and the sounds of battle stopped. The Evil Soul Masters were escorted out one after another, all dressed in black with vicious looks in their eyes. On their side, quite a few people had also been injured. It truly showed how formidable Evil Soul Masters were. If not for the presence of a Soul King, they might really have been unable to subdue them.

"Are there any fish that slipped through the net?"

"Reporting to Young Master, they're all here."

"Mm. Take them all back." Dongfang Yu nodded slightly.

That night, the Martial Soul Branch Hall in Nuoding City planned to hold a grand banquet, but Dongfang Yu politely declined.

"Bishop Xiao, there's no need for this. It would be better to prepare for tomorrow's matters." Dongfang Yu intended to execute the Evil Soul Masters before the people of Nuoding City the next day. Not only would this complete the mission, it would also bring many benefits.

Xiao Enzuo looked deeply excited and hurriedly agreed. "Yes, yes! I'll make the preparations immediately."

With that, he hurriedly withdrew. It was clear that capturing the Evil Soul Masters had truly made him happy, and the heavy stone in his heart had finally been lifted.
