Gu Rong took a deep breath, and his gaze gradually became more serious, "Since you are neither evil Soul Masters nor even humans, then there's no need for me to hold back!"
Given the current situation, he could no longer care for the others!!
However, based on his performance earlier, as far as the abyssal creatures were concerned, he was already at his last arrow ...
"Hehehe, human, stop boasting shamelessly, do you really think you're a match for us?"
"If it were a one-on-one battle, perhaps you might have a chance of winning, but don't forget, we now have the advantage in numbers!!"
"Tsk, you can't even break through my defense, yet you claim you need not hold back, that's truly laughable!"
"Human, I advise you to give up struggling and willingly become our food, we guarantee you a death of value!!!!"
Gu Rong wasn't infuriated by these words but instead said self-mockingly, "Is that so?? It seems I have been underestimated by you all, so next, I will show a little bit of my true ability!!"
To think that he, a Hyper Douluo, would one day be belittled like this!
Had it been Chen Xin instead, he would probably have already torn these fools to shreds!!
Therefore, he no longer concealed his soul power fluctuations, and the aura of his entire being began to rise steadily ...
At that moment, the smiles of the abyssal creatures came to an abrupt halt...
"There's... something off, this human was actually concealing his strength!!"
"What difference does concealing strength make? I've already said it, the moment he decided to follow us alone, his fate was sealed to die here!!"
"The strength of this human has indeed become much stronger than before, but let's not forget, we haven't gone all out either!!"
"I'm getting more and more excited, I wonder to what extent our strength will climb after devouring this guy!!!!"
Having said that, they too discarded all caution, and each of their bodies began to twist wildly ...
Then, exploding like fragments, in just a few seconds, they recondensed into several imposing creatures with powerful auras, lifting their proud heads to look down on the exceptionally diminutive Gu Rong in front of them...
"Human, being able to see our true form, you can die without regrets!"
Upon seeing this, the latter couldn't help but swallow hard, "Are they actually soul beasts that have assumed human form? But why is the aura emanating from them so ominous??"
In his entire life, he had never encountered such strange soul beasts!!
However, now was not the time to contemplate these matters; he had to deal with these creatures quickly!!
Otherwise, the people from Martial Soul Hall might discover the abnormalities here!!
At the same time, Yueguan, who was standing high up and overlooking everything, had his expression turn ugly ...
He had never imagined that the targets Gu Rong was tracking would turn out not to be human!!
Instead, it was the abyssal creatures that they had all been seeking!!
He couldn't help but curse quietly, "Fools, it's clear at a glance that those are not hundred-thousand-year soul beasts in human form, but abyssal creatures!!"
The easiest way to distinguish between soul beasts and abyssal creatures is their inclination to talk about eating their opponents ...
Of course, what really confirmed Yueguan's belief were the words in which these abyssal creatures had disclosed their identities!!
With this in mind, he forcefully suppressed the emotions in his heart ...
"No good, I must report this matter to Your Holiness, a large group of abyssal creatures entering Soul City could likely indicate some sinister plot!!"
"Once they start a massacre, I fear that Soul City will suffer heavy losses, and the reputation of Martial Soul Hall will be greatly damaged!!"
With that thought, he prepared to turn and leave...
However, Gu Rong, who had been pretending not to notice, suddenly lifted his gaze towards the high ground...
He shouted loudly, "Hidden friend in the shadows, you've seen everything up to this point, do you still plan to just walk away??"
"These soul beasts have come to Martial Soul City with ill intentions, why not join forces with me and slay them all!!"
Although he did not know the identity of the other party, being able to keep up with his pace meant that their strength was at least at the Title Douluo level!
With their help, fighting these soul beasts should relieve quite a bit of pressure!
Upon hearing this sudden speech, Yueguan realized that Gu Rong had long since been aware of his presence...
He set his foot back down that he had lifted...
"Damn it, should I help this guy?? Honestly, him dying at the hands of these abyssal creatures would be a good thing for Martial Soul Hall!"
"Only... fighting these abyssal creatures later on might result in losing a helping hand!"
Having battled with abyssal creatures before, he knew exactly how terrifying these fellows were!!
Enough of that, I'm not doing this to help Gu Rong, but merely to maintain the peace in Martial Soul City!!
Seemingly having made up his mind, Yueguan no longer hid his form, leaping straight down from above, and landed steadily on the ground...
Then, he glanced at Gu Rong beside him, "Bone Douluo, you've really gotten yourself into big trouble!"
Upon seeing this familiar face, Gu Rong couldn't help but exclaim, "Yueguan?? Why is it you?"
He had not anticipated that the one tracking him would be Yueguan!
Yueguan pursed his lips, "What?? Is it so surprising to see me, an Elder of Martial Soul Hall, in Martial Soul City?"
Gu Rong was noncommittal, "Surprising? It is quite surprising, considering your personality. You would usually leave without a second thought, not choose to help me, right?"
Yueguan rolled his eyes, responding unenthusiastically, "Hmph, you think I want to help you? I simply don't want to let these things run wild in Martial Soul City!!"
Gu Rong couldn't help but chuckle at this response...
If Yueguan was not a subordinate of Pope Bibi Dong, he could actually be considered a loyal person. It's just a pity he's misguided!!
Shaking his head, Gu Rong pushed these thoughts aside and proposed, "Yueguan, forget the nonsense for now. Let's join forces and kill these creatures!"
To his surprise, Yueguan emphatically responded, "Impossible!"
Gu Rong was baffled, "Impossible?? What do you mean by that?"
Yueguan knitted his brows, explaining again, "These fellows aren't ordinary hundred-thousand-year soul beasts; I can't tell you the specifics!"
"However, I can assure you that just the two of us cannot possibly kill them!!"
Gu Rong, however, did not believe it and spoke sternly, "Aren't you a bit too unconfident in your own strength?? Both of us are Hyper Douluo, killing them shouldn't be any issue!!"
Could it be that Yueguan was scared, which is why he would say such a thing?
Yueguan retracted his gaze and silently released his own Martial Soul, Mystic Heaven Chrysanthemum...
"Gu Rong, I won't try to convince you, but all it will take is one battle with them for you to see the truth for yourself!"
"However, I must warn you, don't underestimate them, or else, you could end up with no place to bury your body!!"
