บท 2947: Chapter 2932: Attack_1

Douling Empire, inside the imperial palace!

Xue Yuntian was anxiously pacing back and forth in the great hall, his expression fluctuating unpredictably…

The daijin below could only choose to silently watch, not daring to speak up and disturb him…

Finally, the former stopped his pacing, unable to hold back any longer, he broke the silence…

"What is the situation at the frontline? Why haven't the scouts sent out returned yet!"

Several days had passed since Tang Wulin and the others had left, but still, no news had come!

Upon hearing this, the heads of the daijin present all bowed…

Only one stepped forward, cupped his fists, and said, "Your Majesty, please calm your anger. Most of the strong Soul Masters from the imperial palace have rushed to the frontline to battle the Evil Soul Master Army, so sending regular soldiers to gather intelligence will naturally be slower!!"

Of course, there was also a great possibility that an accident occurred en route, preventing the news from being relayed back in a timely manner…

Upon hearing this, Xue Yuntian couldn't help but grind his teeth, clearly understanding the physical condition of the soldiers of the Douling Empire…

He could only sigh and said, "Ah, even so…"

In the future, it is a must to improve the overall standard of the Soul Masters to avoid such difficulties in conveying information like now…

They had tried using communication devices before, but because the vast Soul Power dissipating on the battlefield would interfere with the signals, they often cut off unexpectedly!

Seeing this, one reassured, "Your Majesty, I don't think there's any need to worry so much. With Shrek and the powerful members from the Xingluo Empire, that massive Evil Soul Master Army may seem numerous, but they're actually not powerful at all!"

"What we really need to be mindful of is whether the Ghost Emperor will take advantage of this time to launch an attack!!"

The other Council Members looked at each other and chimed in…

"That's right, and with the strong individuals from our Douling Empire, we have dozens of Hyper Douluo, scores of Title Douluo, and hundreds of Soul Douluo. That Evil Soul Master Army definitely isn't a match!"

"Furthermore, among the Elders of the Sea God Pavilion who have arrived this time, there is that very capable Saint Soul Douluo who specializes in healing; it's almost impossible for any casualties to occur!"

"I think so too. We only need to stay put at the rear and remain vigilant at all times!!"

Just at that moment, a soldier clad in thick armor and covered with wounds hobbled into the great hall, reporting anxiously to Xue Yuntian, "Your… Your Majesty, there's… there's trouble!!"

"The Ghost Emperor, leading a portion of the Evil Soul Masters, attacked the imperial palace, all the soldiers have already been… "

But as soon as these words fell, a line of blood opened up on his neck, "pfft," his head separated from his body, and he fell into a pool of blood…

In an instant, including Xue Yuntian, everyone's pupils shrank tight...

They had only just mentioned the Ghost Emperor, not expecting him to make a move the next second!!

Xue Yuntian snapped back to reality, just about to speak when...

An even more heart-chilling voice resounded...

"To think one managed to escape, such tenacity!!"

To the naked eye, the Ghost Emperor and a dozen Evil Soul Masters dressed in black robes walked in…

He glanced at the already utterly dead soldier on the ground, kicked him away with a foot, and the body landed right in front of Xue Yuntian…

Xue Yuntian's anger was close to tearing him apart, as he pointed at the Ghost Emperor and scolded, "Ghost Emperor… you, you actually dared to launch another attack!"

The other Chairman wanted to speak as well, but facing the overwhelming oppressive feeling, they just stood there foolishly…

Not even daring to move a muscle…

Fearing they might end up like the soldier before them, decapitated without an intact corpse…

The Ghost Emperor raised an eyebrow, "Oh? Why wouldn't I dare? Did you really think that kid named Xie Xie saved you?"

That was deliberate on my part, otherwise his life would have been taken long ago!!

Xue Yuntian's eyes revealed, "You... you mean to say, all of this was within your plans??"

The Ghost Emperor did not answer but merely sneered, "Whether it is or isn't, I have no need to answer you. Prepare to die!!"

"Attack, kill them!!"

The eyes of the evil Soul Masters behind him seeped with blood-red color, their Soul Power bursting forth as they charged towards the Council Members, commencing the slaughter…

The Council Members had such low soul power ranks, some even without any Soul Power at all, how could they possibly resist? In the blink of an eye, they had all turned into withered corpses…

...their previous appearances completely unrecognizable...

Before long, Xue Yuntian was the only one left in the entire hall!

Watching the Ghost Emperor step towards him, his body began to tremble; terror also filled his eyes...

In the current state of the imperial palace, there was no powerful Soul Master, and the soldiers had been slaughtered to the last man...

I am beyond escape from death!!

With this thought, he collapsed to the ground, and following that, there was an indescribable stench…

This scene naturally did not escape the eyes of the Ghost Emperor...

He paused in his steps, mercilessly mocking, "Xue Yuntian, aren't you the emperor of the Douling Empire? To be so terrified that you wet yourself, isn't that a bit too humiliating!"

Trembling, Xue Yuntian answered, "Ghost… Ghost Emperor, if I voluntarily leave the Douling Empire, could you possibly spare my life?"

The corner of the Ghost Emperor's mouth lifted slightly, "You may, if you can crawl between my legs, sparing your life is no trouble at all!!"

Regardless, he had no intention of letting him go; it was better to thoroughly humiliate him!

Xue Yuntian, without a moment's hesitation, fell to his knees, "Good… good, I am willing, I am willing, as long as you can spare my life!!"

After saying this, he put his hands down and began moving slowly towards the Ghost Emperor...

Seeing this, the Ghost Emperor crossed his arms, lightly commenting, "Hmph, to so readily cast aside your dignity like trash, and yet you could become the emperor, how ironic!!"

Although he said this, he was still thoroughly enjoying it...

Upon hearing these words, Xue Yuntian's eyes were filled with bloodshot vessels, but he still echoed, "I… I am trash, as long as Ghost Emperor you can spare me, I am trash!!"

As he spoke, he continued to move his body...

"Hahaha, the Sect Hierarch was right, the emperor of the Douling Empire really is trash, to actually make such a gesture!"

"Isn't it so? Today the emperor of the Douling Empire kneels to us, next time, it will be the emperor of the Xingluo Empire, no one can stop the rise of our Holy Spirit Cult!"

"If we had known, we wouldn't have been so quick to kill those Council Members, torturing them properly might have brought some pleasure!!"

"Right, the entire human world should be ruled by our Holy Spirit Cult, everything else is unnecessary!!"

Under these voices, Xue Yuntian had already approached the Ghost Emperor…

Just as he was about to crawl through the gap, his eyes suddenly changed, and he swiftly pulled out a soul weapon, aiming it at the Ghost Emperor's head as he pressed down on the attack…

A "buzz" sound, and the light pierced directly through the Ghost Emperor's skull…

…
