Chương 72: Chapter 72 Bloody Mary_1
Xu Sheng hastily left the Douluo Palace, still feeling a tightness in his chest after nearly having his secret exposed!
His expression turned solemn, "I was almost discovered, but my secret of having Twin Martial Souls can't be hidden for much longer."
If Qian Renxue were to tell Bi Bidong or Qian Dao Liu about his possession of a second Martial Soul, his position would become somewhat awkward.
If he were to be trusted by Martial Soul Hall, yet he hadn't even told his own teacher Bi Bidong about his second Martial Soul...
It's likely that her many years of trust in him would change.
Although, he truly didn't care so much about his standing...
Putting all that aside, the first thing was to head to Slaughter City!
There, he could consolidate his Killing domain, and perhaps even enhance his First Martial Spirit, the Nine-Hearted Begonia.
...
In the following days, Xu Sheng continued northward, walking alone through rivers, crossing deserts barren of life, and finally arriving at a place with a hint of human presence.
Wearing special eyewear, the already fiercely murderous Xu Sheng managed to blend his aura into the surroundings...
Xu Sheng frowned slightly, slowing his steps as he entered the place...
His cold gaze scanned the area, seeing the whole place shrouded in round after round of dark silhouettes...
What looked like a village lay ahead, and upon entering, one could find shops big and small—all emanating a light scent of blood.
It seemed that many who came here had been mercilessly slain within these shops...
"Bloody Mary, give me Bloody Mary!" Next to countless withered trees, hung by their branches like dry bones, numerous men screamed in agony...
When the desirous eyes of these skeletal men settled on Xu Sheng standing still, they went mad with frenzy...
"Bloody Mary..."
"Bloody Mary, if I kill you, I can get Bloody Mary! Kill you!"
"Kill him... kill him!"
These bone-thin men dropped from the trees, their battered bodies swarming towards Xu Sheng like zombies...
If an ordinary person were to witness this scene, they would undoubtedly wonder if they had entered Hell!
Of course, there were also some who were so desperately thirsty and unwilling to wait, they turned to attack the nearest person, biting fiercely...
All they did was bite each other, seemingly indifferent to their own pain, sucking up each other's blood...
The countless scarlet fluids appeared particularly horrifying under the moonlight...
Others, their arms straightened, walked step by step towards Xu Sheng...
It seemed they intended to devour him...
Xu Sheng's eyes went cold; the state of Slaughter City was worse than he had imagined, but he rather liked this unrestrained place...
He swiftly released his Martial Soul, then with a wave of his hand towards the thronging, frenzied "zombies,"...
Countless Nine-heart Asiatic Apple vines, like a massive forest of thorns, lashed out in front of him...
In an instant, the mindless Slaughters were bound by the vines of the Nine-heart Asiatic Apple, which began to absorb their souls and blood...
In no time, a dense crowd erupted in desolate screams of despair...
But even as they knew they faced death, the words these people mumbled were still unclear...
"Aaaahhhhh!"
"Bloody... Bloody Mary!"
"Kill him... kill..."
Xu Sheng glanced back and continued forward, his palm lightly clenched…
The dense crowd that had been strangled by the Nine-Hearted Begonia instantly turned into skeletons that collapsed to the ground, devoid of life, while their remaining blood and souls nourished the Nine-Hearted Begonia.
…
Xu Sheng stopped in front of a foreboding tavern, looking at the sign above filled with bloody lettering…
From the outside, one could vaguely see countless burly men inside, drinking fervently from their hands, the liquid emitting a strange red glow, steaming hot…
A naked man boisterously declared, "Drink! Drink!" With that, he gulped down the boiling scarlet liquid in his cup…
But the next moment, his chest was suddenly pierced by a weapon, wielded by another similarly dressed, burly man beside him!
The latter's greedy gaze fixed on him, "Die! Do you even deserve to drink this?"
The man with the pierced chest widened his eyes, pointing at him, "You…" He never finished his sentence, as he lost his life and fell to the ground…
And the patrons at the other tables acted as if this was normal…
They continued to indulge in what was in their hands…
The tavern's waiter walked over, coldly glanced at the body on the floor, and said indifferently, "Do you want to switch to a Bloody Mary?"
The man who killed the burly man nodded, licking his dry lips, "Mm."
Xu Sheng, seeing this place he somewhat longed for, felt as if a certain shackle in his heart had been unlocked…
"So, this is the real gateway to Slaughter City? Really interesting…" He mused, the corners of his mouth slightly turning up as he slowly walked into the tavern…
The people at the surrounding tables stared at Xu Sheng with ill intent, but then they contained themselves…
Xu Sheng gave them a cold glance and silently found an empty seat to sit down…
Soon, the same waiter quickly approached Xu Sheng and said with a disdainful look, "What would you like to order?"
Xu Sheng's eyes turned cold, and a tangible killing intent surged towards the waiter, whose face changed dramatically as he ingratiatingly asked, "What would you like to order?"
The burly men at the other tables, seeing the terrifying killing intent released by Xu Sheng, shrank their pupils and silently sized him up…
Xu Sheng said indifferently, "Bring me a Bloody Mary."
Coming to Slaughter City, tasting a Bloody Mary was essential…
He was also very curious about what a Bloody Mary tasted like…
The waiter dared not refuse, barely smiling, "One Bloody Mary, coming right up, please wait!"
After he left, he soon returned carrying a cup of boiling scarlet liquid, carefully placing it in front of Xu Sheng.
The waiter said with a smile, "Enjoy your drink!" before turning and walking away…
Xu Sheng turned his gaze to the table, to the cup filled with steaming hot, blood-red liquid…
He slowly grasped it in his hand, already smelling an extremely tempting scent of blood as he brought it close…
His face cold, he brought it to his lips and took a sip. The next moment, his complexion went through several changes…
He slammed down the cup and began coughing violently, "Cough cough…" The Bloody Mary wasn't just a matter of taste! Instead, upon drinking it felt as though the hot liquid could pull one into the infinite abyss of the dead…
Even though he was prepared, the eerie sensation still shocked him…
However, from the moment Xu Sheng set the Bloody Mary on the table, the way those at the other tables, who had been wary of Xu Sheng, looked at him underwent a complete shift, their pupils showing undisguised killing intent…
