"Judging by the report, it probably wasn't Bibi Dong. The Soul Masters of the Spirit Hall main branch in Xilu City were all killed with some kind of blunt weapon, and several were even torn to pieces. That isn't Bibi Dong's style," Qian Daoliu said gravely.
Golden Crocodile Douluo slammed the table and snapped, "Could it have been the Soul Hall? They want to swallow us up, so they decided to show us their might first!"
Qian Daoliu shook his head and explained, "Golden Crocodile, don't talk nonsense. Given Xiao Yan's character, he probably wouldn't do something like this. Besides, I've already sent Xiao Xue to the Soul Hall to negotiate with that young fellow. Perhaps the Spirit Hall offended some faction in the past, and they've suddenly come seeking revenge."
"This brief report alone can hardly tell us exactly what happened. Here's what we'll do: Qian Jun, Jiang Mo, the two of you go investigate. The Spirit Hall is facing enormous changes now. If things like this keep happening, I won't be able to answer to everyone."
"Yes, Great Enshrined." Qian Jun and Demon Subduing Douluo rose together and cupped their hands toward Qian Daoliu. Their figures flashed, turning into streaks of golden light that vanished from the spot.
The Soul Hall.
After several days of recuperation, Xiao Yan had mostly recovered. He rolled off the stone bed and slowly walked out of his room.
As soon as he emerged, the maid who had been waiting outside for a long time hurried forward and said respectfully, "Hall Master, Celestial Venerable Dugu said you should go to the hall once you come out."
Xiao Yan nodded slightly, waved the maid away, and set off toward the reception room.
A few minutes later, Xiao Yan appeared outside the reception room.
