"Rumble!"

"Crack!"

Two completely different thunderous sounds rang out.

They erupted in the same area at the same time.

Several long-renowned Titled Douluo elders had simultaneously launched killing attacks at Darkness Bell.

The other sound came from Ye Tianran.

He had actually obtained a hundred-thousand-year Dragon King Soul Ring!

At the same time, before everyone's eyes,

his Martial Soul mutated into some kind of Sub-Dragon.

Its immense power far surpassed that of others at the same level.

Even though he was only level eighty, the pressure he radiated made some level ninety and ninety-one Titled Douluo unable to resist lowering their heads.

That only made everyone more excited!

The crowd that had previously been watching from the sidelines completely lost their minds.

The Dragon King Treasure was right before them.

And someone had already obtained a hundred-thousand-year Dragon King Soul Ring.

What was there left to hesitate over?

Everyone wanted to become the next Ye Tianran.

Everyone wanted to take a gamble.

What if...

their own names appeared upon that Golden Canopy as well?

"Damn it!"

Darkness Bell's expression finally changed.

She had originally thought these people merely wanted to capture her.

But now she understood.

These bastards truly wanted to kill her!

And they were competing to do it!

"You old bastards!"

Darkness Bell shrieked.

Her figure abruptly retreated.

Two Black Chains lashed out from the void.

"Bang!"

One of the Titled Douluo smashed a chain apart with a punch.

Another had already circled around from the side.

"Darkness Bell, stop struggling!"

"Today, you are our opportunity!"

"Bullshit!"

Darkness Bell was so furious that her face turned pale.

She was one of the Four Heavenly Kings of the Holy Ghost Church.

When had she ever suffered such humiliation?

In the past, which righteous person who saw her had not wished to stay as far away as possible?

But now,

they were all like starving wild dogs.

They refused to take their eyes off her.

What frustrated her even more was...

she did not dare to truly kill anyone.

Because what would killing one person mean?

It meant that person's companions might surround her completely!

"Bell!"

Just then,

a deep voice suddenly sounded from afar.

Darkness Bell's entire body trembled.

For the first time, genuine delight appeared on her face.

"Lord Ghost Emperor!"

That old bastard could no longer sit still!

He had finally come!

A cloud of black mist drifted over from the distance.

It did not appear to be moving quickly.

Yet one second, it had still been several hundred meters away.

The next second,

it had arrived at the center of the battlefield.

"Boom!"

Terrifying Soul Power suddenly erupted.

Several Titled Douluo who had been besieging Darkness Bell were all forced back at once.

One of them even staggered back more than ten steps.

His expression instantly turned grave.

"Ghost Emperor!"

The surroundings fell silent at once.

Many people instinctively tightened their grips on their weapons.

Ghost Emperor.

Throughout the entire Douluo Continent, that name was anything but ordinary.

He was not the leader of the Holy Ghost Church.

Strictly speaking, he was not even the highest-ranking figure within the Holy Ghost Church.

Yet over the years, the one truly responsible for the Holy Ghost Church's external operations, for liaising with various factions, and for mobilizing Evil Soul Masters was precisely Ghost Emperor.

In other words,

the leader could remain unseen.

But Ghost Emperor could not neglect his duties.

Because, much of the time, he was the one steering the Holy Ghost Church's ship.

"Ghost Emperor, you finally decided to show yourself?"

A Super Douluo spoke coldly.

Ghost Emperor did not answer.

He merely swept his gaze around.

Corpses.

Blood.

And those people eagerly searching for the next Evil Soul Master.

At last,

his gaze landed on Darkness Bell.

This usually mischievous Four Heavenly King now had several tears in her clothes.

Blood still hung from the corner of her mouth.

"Who did this?"

Ghost Emperor asked only one question.

No one answered.

Because too many people had attacked just now.

More importantly...

the way these people looked at Ghost Emperor had changed as well.

In the past, when they saw Ghost Emperor,

they felt wary.

But now?

One young Soul Master could not help muttering softly.

"If we kill Ghost Emperor too..."

The person beside him twitched an eyelid.

"Shut up!"

"Are you insane?"

"What are you afraid of?"

The young Soul Master licked his lips.

"Darkness Bell is one of the Four Heavenly Kings."

"Ghost Emperor is the one who truly holds power in the Holy Ghost Church."

"Someone of that level..."

He did not continue.

But many people around him already understood.

Pairs of eyes

quietly settled upon Ghost Emperor.

However, compared to the relatively quiet scene,

the onlookers in the Livestream who loved chaos were already arguing fiercely.

[What are you afraid of? There are so many of you, attack together!] [Exactly! If you can kill Ghost Emperor, perhaps Lord Dragon King will directly grant you a million-year Soul Ring.] [I think you should persuade those Evil Soul Masters with a conscience to turn against him. After all, they understand Ghost Emperor best.] [The person above has truly figured out the rules. Lord Dragon King really never restricted Evil Soul Masters from killing Evil Soul Masters!] [Hahaha, if I had that kind of strength and opportunity, I would at least go up there and take a couple of bites.] [What is there to fear? With the Hall Master of the Hall of God of War and Pagoda Master Qiangu Dongfeng here, why fear the Holy Ghost Church?]

The chatter online

did not exist only within the Livestream.

It also placed immense pressure on the important figures at the scene.

Outsiders might not know about the ties between these three sides, but how could they possibly attack their own allies?

Besides, if they wiped out the Holy Ghost Church, who would handle all the dirty work afterward?

For these important figures to maintain their glamorous public image, they had to pay a price ordinary people could hardly imagine!

"Pagoda Master Qiangu, should we avoid this?"

Before long, an elder who knew the inside story stepped forward.

He seemed to want Qiangu Dongfeng to stop showing himself.

Otherwise, if Ghost Emperor attacked and the head of the Pagoda of Spirit did not intervene, there would be trouble.

The same thing happened within the Hall of God of War.

Chen Xinjie had originally intended to step forward.

After all, he also could not stand Ghost Emperor.

But several old men from the Federation Council who had come along held him back.

"Hall of God of War, if you care about the Federation's reputation, then stay out of this!"

A very delicate situation soon emerged at the scene.

Just as all the human experts acted ambiguously,

Beast God Ditian, who had just gained benefits, stepped forward.

"You are Ghost Emperor?"

"Many of our high-level Soul Beasts died by your hand before. Today, do not even think of leaving alive!"

The upper echelons of humanity all had tangled interests with one another.

But the Soul Beasts did not.

Moreover, the experts of the Holy Ghost Church all had hundred-thousand-year Soul Rings beneath their feet.

Those were not things the Pagoda of Spirit could simulate.

Thus, beneath every hundred-thousand-year Soul Ring was the wronged soul of a hundred-thousand-year Soul Beast.

It was entirely justified for Di Tian to act now.

And Ghost Emperor, who had thought he had already intimidated the entire scene, saw this terrifying figure step out.

He could not help shuddering.

"This is bad. I was too careless just now!"

"I actually forgot that old dragon was still here..."
