Shi Tao, the Lord of the Evil Soul Hall, and the elders were listening to Jiang Yuan's report on the Fairness System and the Xin State.

However, Liu Yi, Yang Jingxing, and more than four hundred other top cultivators suddenly arrived outside the mountain gate.

They were immediately terrified, stopped the meeting, and soared into the air.

Upon hearing the commotion, the other experts from the Evil Soul Hall also flew into the air, their powerful and majestic aura sweeping out like raging waves.

Shi Tao's gaze swept across the crowd, and the familiar faces of Mao Yi, Yang Jingxing, Cao Yang, and others made his pupils shrink in shock.

The group of people were all at least at the Void Return Realm, and they exuded murderous intent, clearly not here with good intentions.

If this isn't handled properly, the Evil Soul Hall could be destroyed today.

He dared not hesitate for a moment, his hands rapidly forming hand seals to fully activate the half-open sect-protecting formation, the "Evil Extremity Ten Thousand Souls Array".

In an instant, a second layer of defensive light shield rose from the ground, completely enveloping the entire Evil Soul Hall.

Within the layers of the light shield, a million fierce ghosts at the Golden Core Realm and Nascent Soul Realm appeared, howling and screaming. Their cries pierced the sky, and their eerie ghostly aura blotted out the sun.

Chen Jie looked at the group of experts from the Evil Soul Hall and couldn't help but chuckle.

Although his purpose in coming here was to earn money from the Xin State, that didn't stop him from livestreaming to earn Energy Points.

This attack on the Evil Soul Hall is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for live-streaming content; if he misses it, he'll regret it to the core.

He then opened TikTok) and started a live stream, writing the following in the live stream title:

"The top experts recruited by the Xin State are attacking the Evil Soul Hall!"

The number of viewers surged to three million within moments of the live stream starting, and it continues to grow rapidly, with the chat constantly flooding the screen with comments.

"Hiss! The Xin State is really going to attack the Evil Soul Hall! That's the Evil Soul Hall's mountain gate ahead."

"This is incredible! Who would have thought that the Xin State would recruit so many powerful individuals? This time, the Evil Soul Hall is probably doomed!"

"Liu Yi, Chen Jie, Bai Qianqian, Ye Qingxue, Mei Kong, Yang Jingxing, Mao Yi... they are all very important figures!"

The strength of the Xin State faction is at least several times that of the Evil Soul Hall; I really don't see how they have any chance of survival.

I originally thought that it would be good enough if the Xin State could recruit some strong individuals to protect itself.

"I never expected to recruit so many experts; now they're even going to wipe out the Evil Soul Hall."

"The Evil Soul Hall is completely finished. Even if they have hidden trump cards, it's useless against so many top experts."

Seeing that the number of viewers in the live stream had exceeded 100 million, Chen Jie immediately used his Divine Sense to speak in the live stream:

"Fellow Daoists, I am Chen Jie!"

Today I'm live-streaming the gathering of top experts in the Xin State to attack the Evil Soul Hall.

Look ahead! The Evil Soul Hall's mountain gate has activated its protective formation, the ' Evil Extremity Ten Thousand Souls Array.' We will break the formation and annihilate the Evil Soul Hall shortly!

This was a real, annihilation battle, the brutality of which was beyond imagination; you've certainly never seen anything like it.

Today I'll be showing you this battle live! If you enjoy it, please consider supporting me with Duoduo virtual gifts!

Xu Cheng'an, Bai Qianqian, Ye Qingxue, and other quick-witted system hosts instantly sensed a business opportunity to earn Energy Points.

They all secretly started live streaming, hoping to get a share of the profits.

Li Yuan, the patriarch of the Evil Soul Hall, stood tall in mid-air, his immense aura of the Late Stage of the Tribulation Transcendence Realm Transcending Realm cultivator as still and imposing as a mountain.

At this moment, however, he looked solemnly at the crowd in front of the mountain gate.

His gaze swept past Li Zhiyuan at the front, finally settling on Mao Yi, who had a grudge against the Evil Soul Hall, and he shouted sharply:

"That old bastard Mao Yi! Leading so many people to my Evil Soul Hall, do you intend to start a war with us?"

Mao Yi's lips curled into a mocking smile, his eyes filled with disdain:

"Fierce Demon Lord, have you perhaps lost your mind during your seclusion?"

We've come with such a large entourage; are we here to reminisce or to start a war?

"However, today Non-Self Mysterious Splendor Pavilion that is at odds with you, but rather the Xin State that is about to wage war against your Evil Soul Hall. We are merely its henchmen."

"Xin State?"

Upon hearing this, Li Yuan was momentarily stunned, his pupils shrinking slightly.

He had spent many years in seclusion, cultivating himself in asceticism, and knew very little about the outside world. He had never heard of the term "Xin State" before and did not know when it had risen to power.

"You hypocrite, stop trying to deny it!"

He suppressed his doubts and retorted angrily, "Although I don't know what kind of power the Xin State is, you are all powerful figures in your own right. How could you be willing to be someone else's henchmen?"

"If your Mysterious Splendor Pavilion wants to destroy my Evil Soul Hall, just say so. Why come up with such a lame excuse?"

Mao Yi shook his head, his tone indifferent. "Believe it or not, it's up to you."

"Today I am truly nothing more than a henchman."

Upon seeing this, Shi Tao immediately used his Divine Sense to transmit his voice to Li Yuan:

"Master, this Xin State is the name of the newly established kingdom after the Qing State, A Mortal kingdom formerly under the jurisdiction of my Evil Soul Hall, was overthrown..."

"What?"

Upon hearing this, Li Yuan felt his mind reel, his face filled with disbelief.

He hurriedly used his Divine Sense to inquire, his voice trembling slightly:

Is that so-called ' Fairness System ' really that miraculous?

You haven't been scammed, have you?

Shi Tao Divine Sense replied telepathically, his tone extremely respectful:

"Master, the matter of the Fairness System was told to us by Elder Wei Mingyuan of the Heavenly Devil Sect."

We dared not believe it easily, so we specially sent Jiang Yuan to investigate in secret. The results confirmed that the system was extraordinary.

We were just discussing how to crush the Xin State and suppress all those A Mortal ants, but we never expected that they would dare to launch a preemptive strike!

Previously, after Jiang Yuan returned from the Xin State, he did not conceal anything about the Fairness System and the Xin State, and reported what he knew to the higher-ups of the Evil Soul Hall.

This was done primarily because, firstly, the matter was not difficult to ascertain; it could be found out with a little attention.

Secondly, he still needed to remain an undercover agent in the Evil Soul Hall, and he naturally dared not utter a single falsehood on such an easily verifiable matter, lest he expose any flaws.

Having pieced together the events leading up to this, Li Yuan realized there was no turning back. His gaze suddenly locked onto Li Ming, and he questioned him:

"Fellow Daoist Li! My Evil Soul Hall has no past grievances or recent enmities with you, and we even belong to the same demonic path. Why do you side with those righteous sects to make things difficult for us?"

Aren't you afraid that you'll find it difficult to gain a foothold in the demonic faction in the future?"

Upon hearing this, Li Ming threw his head back and laughed wildly, his laughter filled with undisguised disdain. After his laughter subsided, he said coldly:

"Li Yuan, what you're saying is ridiculous!"

I am just a Rogue Cultivator, always looked down upon by you major sects. What does the struggle between good and evil have to do with me?

Furthermore, do you really think that experts from other Devil Dao Sect wouldn't want to be their henchmen?

Fart!

They really wanted to come, but they were too embarrassed to do so because they belonged to the same demonic faction.

Otherwise, there would be more than just us at the gates of your Evil Soul Hall today.

Li Yuan's face grew increasingly grim, his mind filled with doubts, and he gritted his teeth as he asked:

What benefits did the Xin State offer you that made you willing to risk your life for it?

"If you retreat now, my Evil Soul Hall is willing to offer a great treasure as compensation."

"The Xin State gave me 54 billion Energy Points. If I wiped you out, I would get an extra reward."

There's no way around it, they gave us way too much!

Moreover, although I come from the demonic path, I have always kept my promises and would never break my word, so it is impossible for me to withdraw.

I don't care about your compensation.

Li Ming shrugged, spread his hands, and spoke with a hint of mockery.

"You might as well just let me kill you obediently; that would be the last bit of value you can have."

Every year on this day, I can burn a few more incense sticks for you.

To tell you the truth, your Evil Soul Hall is doomed to destruction today. Don't expect other Devil Dao Sect to come to your rescue.

Aside from the Demonic Flame Sect, who are in cahoots with you, other Devil Dao Sect will not come to your rescue.

Even if some sects come, with our strength, by the time they arrive, you'll all be dead.

Even if they miraculously survive, the reinforcements from other sects are simply courting death!
