At some point, it had begun to rain, and the downpour only grew heavier, thoroughly ruining the mood of those still enjoying themselves in Heaven Dou City.
The terrifying killing intent radiating from Mu Chen as he passed by made everyone around him take the initiative to avoid this "madman."
Xue Qinghe followed closely behind. On the way, he had someone immediately notify the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, especially Ning Fengzhi, about Ning Rongrong's danger.
It was a crisis, but also a rare opportunity!
"Ding! System notification: Ning Rongrong's location has been reached." The system's voice sounded in Mu Chen's mind.
Mu Chen looked up at the mansion before him. Then, the Emperor Dragon Sword appeared, and two Soul Rings, one yellow and one purple, rose around him. Terrifying killing intent burst forth. Two Dragon Hairpins were inserted behind his back, raising all his attributes to three times their original level, while his eyes turned blood-red.
Rain pelted Mu Chen, soaking his hair and clothes. His hand trembled slightly before he walked straight toward the main gate.
"Who are you? Let me tell you, this place is—"
The two guards stationed at the gate looked fearfully at the somewhat crazed Mu Chen. They immediately tried to invoke the family's background.
But before they could finish speaking, two streaks of Sword Qi slit their throats.
They stared at one another in disbelief before collapsing together.
"Little Chen, so this is the place? I think we can make this matter even bigger and wipe out all these bastards in one go."
After seeing where Mu Chen had arrived, Xue Qinghe spoke calmly. With a wave of his hand, several people immediately went to summon the soldiers of Heaven Dou City for support.
"You are to assist Mu Chen in rescuing Miss Ning Rongrong at all costs!"
At Xue Qinghe's command, the several hundred soldiers urgently gathered nearby nodded and charged directly inside.
"Your Highness, the people inside are all children of high-ranking nobles. Their elders wield considerable influence, especially... especially since that person is involved as well. As the Empire's Crown Prince and its future ruler, are you sure you wish to do this?"
A general-like man asked. Clearly, he knew something about the identities of those inside.
To be precise, he and those people were somewhat "familiar." In the past, they had come here to "drive away the lowborn," but now it seemed the roles had been reversed.
As the Empire's future heir, especially in an Empire like Heaven Dou whose rule was unstable, angering these powerful noble lords was clearly not a wise choice.
"Are you teaching me how to do things? Do what you're supposed to do and stay out of everything else!" Xue Qinghe said coldly.
"Yes, Your Highness. I will have the area surrounded immediately! But we will not directly harm those noble youths." The general did not dare say anything further and continued issuing orders.
Xue Qinghe stared at the mansion before him. Tonight, this place would become a river of blood! "Snake Spear Elder, go inside and take a look as well. If Mu Chen encounters danger, you must secretly help him!" Xue Qinghe transmitted his voice.
"Miss, that is someone from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. I..."
Snake Lance Douluo hesitated. Wouldn't it be better to let this matter grow larger and larger?
Ideally, Mu Chen would die here, and so would the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's young mistress. Mu Chen, Sword Douluo's disciple, would die here, and the relationship between the Heaven Dou Empire and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would surely rupture. That would better serve Spirit Hall's interests.
"Do as I say. Consider it Xue'er asking you~"
Xue Qinghe's voice softened. The two elders were only responsible for her safety and did not take orders from her, but to ensure Mu Chen's safety, Qian Renxue was willing to humble herself.
"Yes, Miss."
After hesitating for a while, Snake Lance Douluo's figure flashed directly into the luxurious mansion.
Before meeting Mu Chen, Qian Renxue had considered nothing beyond Spirit Hall and her own interests.
But now, she had given up this opportunity to completely shatter the relationship between the Heaven Dou Empire and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
Inside the mansion.
"You've got some nerve, barging in here! You're courting death!"
Quite a few guards had rushed over within the mansion. Uneven sets of Soul Rings appeared around them as they watched the white-clad god of slaughter before them with apprehension.
At such a young age, he was already a Soul Grandmaster. And since he had appeared here today, the force behind him was clearly no small matter.
Shape-Shifting Shadow!
Mu Chen said nothing. His figure darted among them like a ghostly shadow, the Emperor Dragon Sword in his hand constantly harvesting the lives of one Soul Master after another. The Dark Gold Dreadclaw on his left hand continuously worked in tandem, tearing through every enemy's defenses.
For a time, countless screams rang out as blood flowed freely. Washed by the rain-soaked night, the scene became even more horrifying, truly turning into a hell on earth.
"What a god of slaughter. Tsk, tsk, tsk. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has actually produced someone like this. But Miss seems to have taken a liking to this kid. She even begged me to protect him. I should report this to Spirit City and let them decide what to do."
Snake Lance Douluo hid in the shadows, sighing at the scene before him.
"What's going on outside? Don't tell me something happened?"
Inside an extravagantly decorated room, several young nobles were puzzled when they heard the screams outside.
"Relax. It's probably just those lowborn coming to cause trouble again. Once we finish what we're doing, we'll give them a few thousand Gold Soul Coins and add a few threats. What can those lowborn do? Then the matter will be settled!"
One young noble spoke disdainfully, but his eyes remained fixed on the girl lying on the bed, filled with lecherous desire.
Upon the large snow-white bed, a very cute girl had her hands and feet tied to its four corners. Her adorable face was slightly flushed, and her body had already begun developing, with certain areas starting to take shape. Her green dress was somewhat disheveled, and she was currently unconscious.
She looked pitiful, yet that only stirred these people's beastly lust even more.
"Say, there won't be any trouble, right? She seems to be a Soul Master, and those clothes don't look ordinary," another youth said hesitantly.
"Oh, relax. Don't you trust me when I handle things? I've done this so many times; I'm already very experienced.
No daughter of a noble family would look like this, much less appear at those barbecue stalls frequented by lowborn.
There's a ninety percent chance she's some Soul Master prodigy born among commoners. There won't be a problem.
Besides, even if she has some background, with all our identities combined, even the Heaven Dou royal family would have to think twice. What are you afraid of? And don't you think playing with such a young and beautiful female Soul Master is even more exciting?" the leading young noble said calmly.
