Chapter 348: The Anxious Old Ghost Zhai Xing
In the sky above, a faint and aged voice, mixed with a vigorous aura, slowly echoed through the city and resounded clearly in everyone's ears.
"Very well, since you won't show up, I'll just slaughter the entire Ye Clan!"
After speaking, the Old Ghost Zhai Xing, unwilling to leave anything to chance, decided to take matters into his own hands. He condensed his Dou Qi, causing the entire sky to distort as if it were about to shatter.
...
Two minutes ago, the entire city was thrown into turmoil. Inside the Ye Clan, everyone was equally agitated and stared in astonishment at the commotion in the sky. Especially Ye Zhong and a few Elders, their faces pale.
"A Tianzun of the Hall of Souls..." Ye Zhong's lips trembled.
Not to mention the Tianzun of the Hall of Souls, any one of the people behind him was enough to destroy the current Ye Clan. And now, with him personally taking action, what would become of the Ye Clan...
"How could the people from the Hall of Souls be so arrogant? Aren't they afraid of retaliation from the Pill Tower?" A trembling Elder spoke in panic.
The Hall of Souls was looking for trouble with Xiao Ming. Not to mention Xiao Ming, even the Ye Clan was one of the Five Great Clans of the Pill Tower. If they were to be annihilated like this, the Pill Tower wouldn't just sit idly by.
In reality, the Hall of Souls was not afraid of the Pill Tower at all. They had even caused trouble during the Pill Gathering and tried to destroy the Holy Pill City. If they were not afraid then, why would they be afraid now?
Moreover, the Hall of Souls had been constantly making moves behind the scenes, accumulating more and more grudges. To them, having more enemies was just like having more fleas - itchy but not a concern.
"What's there to panic about? Nobody asked your Ye Clan to fight with them to the death."
Amidst the panic of Ye Zhong and the others, a soft voice rang out. They turned their gaze to the courtyard ahead and saw a charming figure slowly appearing - it was Medusa.
Ye Zhong and the others didn't dare to be disrespectful towards Medusa. They couldn't afford to offend the Hall of Souls, but they also couldn't afford to offend the person in front of them. Regardless of her five-star Dou Ancestor cultivation, she was still Xiao Ming's companion. They could only wear bitter expressions on their faces, trapped between these two formidable entities.
After Medusa appeared, her gaze slightly furrowed as she looked into the distant sky. Her gaze seemed to penetrate through space and directly landed on the figure of the Old Ghost Zhai Xing.
"A Dou Venerate, huh? I wonder where Xiao Ming got himself such an enemy..."
"The Hall of Souls truly doesn't give up easily."
As Medusa murmured to herself in a low voice. a soft voice suddenly rang out beside her. She turned her head slightly and saw a young figure standing on the nearby eaves. Looking at his appearance, if it wasn't Xiao Ming, then who else could it be?
Beside him, Xiao Yi Xian wore a long plain dress, her temperament completely different from before. There was a faintly sharp aura emanating from her, and her strength was unfathomable.
"Why would the people from the Hall of Souls come after you?" Medusa's figure moved, and she appeared next to Xiao Ming, asking.
"This matter is a long story, but let's not talk about it for now. Let's deal with the problem at hand," Xiao Ming said slowly.
Medusa glanced faintly and saw that Xiao Ming showed no signs of anxiety on his face. She didn't say much either. She knew that Xiao Ming was not an ordinary person, and his calmness must be based on some reliance.
Sure enough, in the blink of an eye, two dazzling golden puppets appeared beside Xiao Ming. Medusa knew that these puppets were equivalent to Dou Venerate-level experts. With the one summoned earlier, there were now three puppets. And...
Medusa glanced at Xiao Yi Xian. With her breakthrough into the Dou Venerate realm, there were now four Dou Venerate-level experts.
Four against one. Medusa suddenly wondered what expression the old man above would have later.
Just as Medusa was pondering, cries of shock suddenly came from the crowd. In the sky above, a vast black fog surged and condensed into a palm-shaped imprint that was hundreds of meters in size. With a fierce slap, it descended ruthlessly upon the Ye Clan.
Wherever the black palm imprint passed, the space trembled as if on the verge of shattering. If this palm were to fall, the Ye Clan would undoubtedly be razed to the ground.
In Ye City, countless people watched the palm imprint and felt extremely fortunate that the Hall of Souls' target was not themselves.
"Go!" At the same time, Xiao Ming shouted sternly, and the three golden figures soared through the air, colliding fiercely with the black mist palm imprint.
Boom!
The terrifying black fog palm imprint was easily shattered by the three puppets.
"Elder Ye Zhong, rest assured. This matter is caused by me, and I won't let it involve your Ye Clan," Xiao Ming said, turning his head to the pale-faced Ye Zhong and others in the courtyard, giving them a faint smile. Then his gaze shifted to Xiao Yi Xian as he said, "Xian'er, come with me."
"Hmm, I will definitely teach that old bastard a lesson!" Xiao Yi Xian gritted her teeth lightly.
Medusa's eyes flickered, but she didn't say anything. With her current strength, going up there would only cause trouble. It was better for her to stay here obediently.
Xiao Ming stepped into the void and flew straight into the sky, then stopped not far from where the Old Ghost Zhai Xing was, with Xiao Yi Xian and three puppets around him.
"Is that Xiao Ming? He's not afraid even facing a Dou Venerate. As expected, he's outstanding, just like the rumors!" exclaimed someone.
"The puppets surrounding him seem extraordinary too. They easily resolved the attack from the Hall of Souls' Tianzun!" remarked another.
"Hehehe, it feels like the Hall of Souls has kicked a steel plate this time!"
"That Xiao Ming is so handsome! If only I could spend a night with him..."
"Xiao Ming does have some courage, but isn't he just a pretty boy?" someone sneered.
Xiao Ming's appearance aroused various thoughts among the people of Ye City - some curious, some admiring, and of course, some disdainful and contemptuous.
"You must be Xiao Ming?" The Old Ghost Zhai Xing stopped his actions and scrutinized Xiao Ming's body with his dark eyes.
He finally understood why the four Honorable Elders hadn't returned. He had thought it was because of the red-robed old man accompanying him, but he didn't expect Xiao Ming to have other aces up his sleeve.
Four Dou Venerate-level experts! And not just one-star, they were all two-star or above. This was troublesome. Even if he was a five-star Dou Venerate, he couldn't handle so many Dou Venerates at once!
"Are you asking a question you already know the answer to? I'm sure my portrait is already familiar to you," Xiao Ming sneered. "A few months ago, I killed your four Honorable Elders, and you still haven't learned your lesson. You dare to send people to their deaths. In that case..."
Xiao Ming was about to make a move, but the Old Ghost Zhai Xing interrupted, "Wait, Xiao Ming. Perhaps there was a misunderstanding between my Hall of Souls and you. Our Hall Master admires you greatly. If you join our Hall of Souls, we can forget our past conflicts. We will even train you vigorously to become our Chief Alchemist... Go to hell!"
Midway through his speech, Old Ghost Zhai Xing suddenly attacked. At this point, he certainly did not think that Xiao Ming would be lured by his words. He had only said those things to deceive him.
