Chapitre 666: Chapter 78 Xuan Zi, Evil Soul Master?_2
He knew about this. It was he who had driven away the Body Sect powerhouse after all.
"A powerhouse from the Body Sect makes even the Hall Master so cautious?"
"We have to be cautious," Jing Hongchen said with a bitter smile, "The strength of the Body Sect is not inferior to Mingde Hall or Shrek. Of course, their strength is one aspect, but what's more important is their nature—each one is extremely belligerent and daring to fight, even more so than Shrek when it comes to stirring up trouble. Decades ago, they caused a catastrophe that nearly annihilated the powers of the Douluo Three Kingdoms, including Shrek. Moreover, the previous Sect Master of the Body Sect almost perished together with the master of the Shrek Academy's Sea God's Pavilion..."
"In short, they're madmen, and we have to guard against them."
Jing Hongchen said, and couldn't help but glance at Qin Xiao.
Upon hearing Jing Hongchen's words, everyone in the room gasped.
Hiss...
The Body Sect dares to be so crazy?
"Even if my uncle possesses a self martial soul, does he really need to join the Body Sect?" Meng Hongchen puckered her lips disapprovingly.
"Heh, if those guys from the Body Sect were reasonable, I wouldn't need to be so wary."
Jing Hongchen laughed and shook his head.
In fact, his heart was becoming even more anxious.
If a powerhouse from the Body Sect came to stir up trouble during this period, he would actually feel relieved. But since no one had come, he didn't believe for a second that the Body Sect would let it go so easily.
So, there was only one possibility—that the Body Sect was brewing a major move.
Thinking of the time, wasn't it about time for old Poison Not Dead to kick the bucket?
It wouldn't be surprising if that old coot personally took action.
...
Meanwhile, elsewhere.
Within the Xingluo Empire, in an unnamed small town.
What should have been a bustling small town was now enveloped in a silence as thick as death.
At the end of the small town, a Soul King level powerhouse was filled with terror.
He threatened the old man in front of him with a child in his hands, "Don't come any closer, or I'll kill him!"
Upon hearing this, the old man hesitated for a moment, then took a hearty swig from the liquor gourd on his waist and said with a laugh, "If you want to kill him, then kill him. He was killed by you evil Soul Masters anyway, what does it have to do with me?"
The evil Soul Master was taken aback and quickly said, "Of course it matters? As long as you let me go, I can spare the child in my hands."
But the old man shook his head, "That's impossible. With your Soul King level cultivation, to ordinary people, you are a disaster. If I let you go, I would be releasing a tiger back into the mountains, and in the future, you will harm more people, a thousand, ten thousand, even a hundred thousand. So no matter what, I cannot let you leave."
"Grandfather, I don't want to die yet. Please save me..."
At this moment, the child in the evil Soul Master's hands also hurriedly pleaded for help.
His eyes were filled with entreaty.
But Xuan Zi's face remained indifferent, showing no signs of emotion, "Child, your family is already dead, and you are all alone. Even if I could save you, it's difficult for you to survive alone in this world. To die now might be a good thing—I'm helping you find release..."
Upon hearing this, the youth's expression froze.
As if turned to stone.
"That same old reasoning, always the same old spiel!"
In contrast, the evil Soul Master's face suddenly showed a mad rage, "Xuan Zi, stop with your false benevolence. Of the more than three hundred people in this town, I killed only a dozen, while at least three hundred died by your hand. Those are the lives of over three hundred innocent people!"
Thinking back on what had just happened, he felt a chilling sensation in his heart.
The old gentlemen of Shrek who always preached about protecting the peace of the Douluo Continent and shielding the citizens from evil Soul Masters, were merciless when it came to killing those civilians.
Anyone used by him as a human shield ended up dead by Xuan Zi's one strike.
Xuan Zi even claimed to be freeing them and saving more people by doing so. He said, killing one innocent person could save thousands, and he would not hesitate to kill that innocent person.
But... you've killed hundreds of innocent people already.
The evil Soul Master's sanity crumbled, as he angrily accused, "Xuan Zi, look at what you're doing now, how is it any different from us evil Soul Masters? Not to mention, I have killed merely over a hundred innocent people in my life. That's not even a third of yours."
"So what?"
Xuan Zi raised his eyebrow, "Killing one is murder, killing a hundred is also murder. I am intent on using killing to stop killing, killing until you evil Soul Masters are terrified."
"You, you're really insane!"
The evil Soul Master was shocked; he hadn't expected to encounter such a perverse righteous Soul Master.
"Insane, I truly am insane! Ever since Elder Mu was accused and Xiao Tao disappeared, I've lost my mind. I will kill all of you evil Soul Masters."
As Xuan Zi spoke, his eyes revealed a look of madness.
The evil Soul Master noticed that at this moment, Xuan Zi was truly deranged.
His white hair flew about wildly, and his eyes were bloodshot.
A white aura of murderous intent had condensed into something tangible.
He truly seemed more like an evil Soul Master than the evil Soul Masters themselves.
"Die!"
The next moment, Xuan Zi's indifferent voice rang in the evil Soul Master's ear, and with a punch, his powerful Soul Power burst forth like a torrential flood, obliterating the evil Soul Master and the youth in his grip in a show of overwhelming force.
"Xuan Zi, you will not die a good death!"
As the evil Soul Master faced death, he let out a curse-like scream.
But that voice lasted only for a moment.
Xuan Zi disdainfully picked at his ear with his little finger, "At last, the world is quiet."
With that said.
He looked again at the deathly silent town, set it ablaze, and strutted away from the town.
However.
What Xuan Zi didn't realize was that after he left, two figures shrouded in black cloaks stepped out from the shadows.
And in each of their hands was a strange soul tool.
It was a fist-sized crystal.
Within the crystal, everything that had happened in the town was recorded in its entirety.
In other words, it recorded the scenes of Xuan Zi's killing spree in the town.
The crystals in their hands were clearly no ordinary items, but a type of soul tool known as Memory Crystal.
They were priced at two or three golden soul coins each, not very expensive, but in their hands, they had a significant use.
"Hehehe, truly spectacular."
"Who would have thought the second strongest of Shrek Academy would also indulge in indiscriminate slaughter?"
One of them sneered.
His companion next to him hmphed, "Hmph, what about Shrek? Shrek is also human, and as long as one is human, they have emotions, joy, sorrow, anger... Right now, Xuan Zi is completely controlled by anger."
"Moreover, all these years, has Shrek truly acted for the benefit of the citizens of the Soul Land? I don't really think so. Compared to that, the benefits received by the people are far less than what Shrek has gained. Their self-interest outweighs their responsibilities. I also heard that at this Soul Master Contest, an evil Soul Master naturally awakened. Hehehe, the self-proclaimed righteous Shrek, actually nurturing an evil Soul Master, what an irony."
With that said, his mouth curved into a cold smile.
The smile was thick with irony.
Meanwhile, the evil Soul Master watching Xuan Zi disappear completely from their line of sight, hurriedly said, "Alright, alright, the matters of the Soul Land are not for small characters like us to interfere in. All I know is, our task is to keep a close eye on that old Xuan Zi, and to ensure there are enough evil Soul Masters set upon him, driving him further and further down this path where he believes killing one can save hundreds, thousands, tens of thousands."
After hearing this, his accomplice also showed a sly smirk, "You're right. But look, just a dozen miles from here in another town, another evil Soul Master is waiting for Xuan Zi's arrival. When the time comes, I want to see whether he will kill or not kill the civilians of that town."
However.
The other man shook his head, "Brother, you are mistaken. This old fellow, even if he needs to kill, he shall kill; if he does not, we shall force him to. "
"I am very, very much looking forward to the day these pieces of evidence are revealed to the public, whether the people will see him as an evil Soul Master, and whether Shrek will be able to whitewash him..."
