Su Yi looked at the bodies of the three people he had killed and retrieved his two daggers.

Then he walked over to the Soul Elder, pulled out his spear, flicked the blood from its tip, and recalled his martial soul.

He glanced at the bright moon obscured by dark clouds as darkness gradually enveloped the land.

Under the pitch-black night sky, Su Yi looked at the several tents lit by firelight.

Snoring could already be heard from three of the tents.

Su Yi's hawk-like eyes fixed on one of them, and his body gradually vanished into the darkness.

Arriving outside one of the snoring tents, he lightly cut a small hole into it with his dagger.

There were six people inside the tent.

Five were asleep, while one sat inside, keeping watch.

It seemed they were keeping watch because they feared the people in the other tents might attack them.

That way, while the others slept, one person remained on watch. Even if people from the other tents launched a sneak attack, they could be awakened instantly.

Seeing the person keeping watch in this tent, Su Yi felt that this mission would become even easier.

This alone showed that each tent was an independent little group.

They were all wary of one another. For Su Yi, this was the best possible outcome.

Looking at the burly man keeping watch in the middle of the tent, Su Yi took out a dagger and held it in his right hand.

He moved behind the sentry inside the tent and lightly pierced the dagger into its lowest edge without making a sound.

Then he slowly cut upward, making an opening over forty centimeters long.

Once the opening appeared, Su Yi slipped through it and entered the tent.

His eyes fixed on the sentry with his back turned, Su Yi silently arrived behind him.

The dagger in his right hand stabbed directly into the man's throat, destroying his vocal cords. His left hand covered the man's mouth as he slowly lowered the sentry to the ground.

The sentry stared in terror at the child who appeared to be only six or seven years old. His mind went blank, filled with fear of death.

As Su Yi slowly withdrew the dagger, the sentry's pupils began to dilate, losing all light.

After easily dealing with one enemy, Su Yi went straight to the person sleeping at the edge.

The dagger stabbed in, then came out. Then he moved on to the next.

In less than half a minute, everyone in the tent, aside from the sentry, died in their sleep.

After dealing with the people in that tent, Su Yi headed for a neighboring tent.

Using the same method, all five people inside died without ever knowing why.

Onward, to the next one.

In less than an hour, Su Yi had slaughtered more than forty of these vicious soul masters.

Su Yi, who had assassinated soul masters one after another, had never had such bright eyes.

This single assassination had allowed Su Yi to rediscover that feeling from before.

Destined God of Slaughter had now completely awakened on the Douluo Continent.

Looking at the two tents in the distance, one to the east and one to the west, one tent held around ten people while the other held only two.

There was no need to think about it. Here, if two people could occupy an entire tent, then the two people in that tent had to be the strongest ones here.

As for the remaining tent with ten people, there was only one Soul Elder inside. The rest were all Soul Grand Masters.

Here, they were probably of middling strength among the tents.

After all, they had a lot of people.

So Su Yi had not intended to touch that tent at first.

If he targeted that tent from the start and even one fish slipped through the net, things would become very unfavorable afterward.

And for an assassin, being at a disadvantage meant death.

But now, Su Yi set his sights on that tent. Even if someone slipped through the net, he was not afraid of alerting the others here.

After all, aside from the people in the tent with the two Soul Elders, everyone else here had already become corpses.

With a whoosh, Su Yi headed straight toward the east.

Just as he arrived outside the tent, someone suddenly came out.

Before that person could take more than a few steps, a black shadow appeared before him, and Su Yi silently brought him down.

His luck was good. The person who came out happened to be the tent's sentry. The man had probably come out to relieve himself.

Su Yi then brazenly slipped into the tent through its front flap and looked at the sleeping soul masters.

Using the same method, Su Yi made them all die in their dreams one by one, just like the enemies before them.

Without effort or incident, only the two Soul Elders in the so-called Death Group remained alive.

All the other soul masters had already perished.

Su Yi turned his attention to the final tent. Before the bright moon could emerge from behind the dark clouds, Su Yi arrived at the last tent of the Death Group.

After entering, he saw two scantily clad, seductive women entwined together. The two breathtakingly beautiful women slept wrapped around each other like a pair of gorgeous snakes.

Looking at their enchanting, captivating faces and the sweet smiles on them, it was clear that they were dreaming of something pleasant.

Yet this beautiful sight stirred not the slightest desire in Su Yi's cold, calm eyes.

To him, there were only the living and the dead. There was no distinction between men and women.

No matter how beautiful they were, they would become skeletons in a hundred years.

This tantalizing scene, enough to arouse anyone's desires, did not create the slightest ripple in Su Yi's heart.

As he looked at the two women sleeping entwined together, all Su Yi saw were two skeletons tangled together.

Only a single breath had passed since he entered the tent.

Looking at the two women entwined in sleep, the Chaos Supreme Gun appeared in Su Yi's hand.

With a wet stab, the spearhead pierced through one woman's back and into the other woman's chest. That strike instantly killed the woman whose heart had been pierced from behind.

The woman whose chest had been pierced by the spear tip opened her eyes in terror. Looking into Su Yi's icy gaze, her eyes were filled with disbelief.

With another wet stab, Su Yi exerted force through his right arm holding the spear shaft and shook the spear from side to side.

The two women skewered by the Chaos Supreme Gun were ripped apart down the middle by the shake.

Their bodies split into two halves and fell to the ground.

He spun the spear in his hand, flicked the blood from it, and recalled his martial soul.

Su Yi slowly walked out of the tent with a calm expression.

Though he did not know why two such women had appeared in this Death Group of soul masters, who were either burly men or mere skin and bones—

Since they had appeared here, whoever they were, they were all vicious soul masters. Not a single one was innocent.

The moment he arrived, everyone here had been marked for death.
