In the Pope’s Hall, all of Bibi Dong’s confidants were here. Bibi Dong, with a pale face on her throne, would cough twice from time to time, as if telling Shen An, don’t forget, I was injured for you. Shen An also put on a moved expression. "For Your Majesty the Pope to be so heavily injured for me, Yan can truly never repay this in ten thousand deaths." A look of satisfaction appeared in Bibi Dong’s eyes. Her injuries were not light, but she was not yet at the point of death. This act was just for show. "Someone, bring out the soul bone that this Emperor has treasured." A guard in full armor walked out, holding a jade plate. On it was a bone shining with luster. ’A soul bone!’ Shen An was slightly shocked. This Pope was really willing to part with it. It wasn’t just Shen An. All the Titled Douluos below also looked on with scorching gazes. How precious was a soul bone? Even they, as Titled Douluos, did not have many pieces. Among them, Yue Guan was the most extreme. A level ninety-five Titled Douluo without a single soul bone on his entire body. A trace of resentment couldn’t help but rise in everyone’s heart. They felt that Bibi Dong was being too good to Shen An. He had clearly not made any achievements, yet he was rewarded with such a treasure. And them, poor things. After working diligently for decades, the result they got was always a big pancake. So infuriating! How could they know that there was something called the sunk cost fallacy? When you have paid more for a person, the more you are unwilling to give up. After their Pope had taken that sword strike on the hill, her mind was full of thoughts: I have paid too much. I must subdue Yan Chixia. So it was not surprising that she would make such a move. Shen An accepted it. It was better to take something that was sent to his door for free than not. Although he had the system as a backup, he could still give it to others. However, Shen An still said politely, "Your Majesty the Pope, what is the meaning of this?" "At this time, Spirit Hall is in need of people. Your potential is huge and cannot be wasted. This soul bone is bestowed upon you. I hope that in the future, you will serve my Spirit Hall even better with all your heart and all your might." Shen An said with a feigned choke, "Yan has lived in the mountains for a long time. Now that I have met an enlightened master, I will naturally do my utmost." Bibi Dong nodded lightly. "Because of the matter with the Douluo Hall, Qian Daoliu will surely see you as a thorn in his side. It just so happens that I have a matter on hand that needs you to handle. You can take it as laying low for a while." "Yan receives the Pope’s decree." Of course, Shen An would not refuse. The purpose of coming here was to gain trust, so as to investigate the matter of Xue Qinghe with ease. "Escort my disciple to a place." --- At the same time, in the dark underground world. "Asura King! Asura King! Asura King!" A crazy shout came from the Hell Slaughtering Fields. At the feet of the demonic and handsome Tang San, at this moment lay eight dry skeletons. They were the opponents who had just been sucked into dregs by him. The only soul master who was not yet dead was a soul master holding a longsword. Tang San looked over with disgust and said in a cold voice, "I hate all soul masters who use a sword!" The Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track was activated. The Eight Spider Lances fiercely pierced through his body. In a flash, the person had turned into a skeleton. A look of intoxication appeared on his face. He really liked this place too much. Dark, crazy, and with countless powerful soul masters waiting for him to eat. Because he had not obtained his seventh soul ring, his cultivation had been stuck at the level 70 limit. But it didn’t matter. When he got out, he would soar to the sky. ’However, I really don’t want to go out.’ Tang San’s greedy gaze swept over every soul master in the audience of the Hell Slaughtering Fields. These were all top-grade ingredients. It was just that Tang San immediately suppressed the killing intent in his heart again. Not now. He could not make a move on those soul masters for no reason. At least, he could not take the initiative. After all, the King of Slaughter had already warned him. In the Slaughter City, a dark and spacious room. An exceptionally tall chair, the chair was inlaid with blue and purple crystals, outlining the shape of a drum tower. Everything else was dark red. "The Asura King has won again. His opponents were without exception sucked completely dry." A cold female voice sounded in the darkness. "I know," a tall figure sat down on the giant chair. "Great King, I believe he will soon be able to challenge the Hell Road. Should we contact the Asura King and have him join us?" The King of Slaughter was silent for a moment. "No need. If this Asura King were to join our Slaughter City, he would destroy us." "Why?" "I have gone to see this person before. This person seems upright, but in his bones flows a greed that is even more selfish than mine. He will only live for himself. Anyone, in the end, will just be his stepping stone. He is a natural bad seed." "Then Great King, why don’t we find a way to get rid of him? If he becomes a Slaughter God, he will surely bring unpredictable consequences to our Slaughter City." "Doesn’t the prophecy wall have that instruction? A Slaughter God descends, a disaster for Hell." A trace of fear appeared on the face of the King of Slaughter, but it was soon replaced by a trace of doubt. "No. This Asura King has the Slaughter God as his background. A Slaughter God who has passed the Hell Road can return to the Slaughter City at any time. In their Slaughter God Domain, any soul master can recover the use of their soul skills. This would be a devastating blow to the Slaughter City." "It’s just that, why did that Slaughter God only release his Slaughter God Domain outside the Slaughter City and not come in himself? His personality is the most domineering and arrogant." "Could it be that something has happened to him?" The King of Slaughter’s eyes flickered. Every Slaughter God was a potential threat to the Slaughter City. If they could be eliminated, it would be for the best. To act or not to act? The dark room was silent for a long time. Finally, a sigh was heard. It was a pity. The King of Slaughter still did not want to take any risks. Otherwise, he would have discovered a wild Tang Hao with a severed hand and heavy injuries, thus staging a grandly filial scene. Grandfather killing grandson. How exciting. --- Half a month later. At this moment, Shen An was taking Hu Liena all the way north, to a place called the Slaughter City, to negotiate a deal with the King of Slaughter on behalf of Bibi Dong. Arriving at a small town, Shen An followed the map and walked into a tavern. The moment he stepped in, it gave people a very cold feeling. About forty percent of the people were sitting in the tavern. The air was turbid. Few people were talking. It was just that everyone’s face had the two large characters of "unfriendly" written on them. One by one, their gazes were even more greedily looking at Hu Liena. This woman was naturally charming and very eye-catching. The cowardly cat Tom was so scared it directly stuck to Shen An. A waiter came up. "What can I get for you?" Shen An said directly, "Let this girl enter the Slaughter City." The moment these words came out, everyone laughed loudly. The magnificently dressed Hu Liena didn’t look like someone who would enter the Slaughter City at all. On the contrary, she looked more like a delicate young lady. "Kid, is your brain stupid? With just you two, you think you can enter the Slaughter City?" "This little chick is so beautiful. Instead of going in to be ravaged by people, why not let us brothers have a play first?" "That’s right, that’s right. This old one is already horny and can’t wait." A person with a ferocious face looked at Hu Liena with lust in his eyes. His wide palm aimed at Hu Liena’s perky butt and was about to slap down. "Ahhh! My hand!" All the soul masters instantly stood up, the atmosphere becoming tense with swords drawn.
