Chapter 2535: Meeting Xue Qinghe Again_1
At this moment, the Abyssal Emperor was gazing down at the group of abyssal creatures crouched on the ground, their bodies bent, with a deep frown on his brow…
The reason he did not slay these abyssal creatures before him was that through the Heaven Saint Crack Abyss Halberd, he discovered they were the beings who would transform into Spirit Emperors and other Abyssal Emperors in the future!
Of course, they had not yet developed sapience and could only feel an instinctive fear toward him, but were completely incapable of communication!
Thinking this, he coldly said, "You lot, can you understand what I am saying?"
Upon hearing these words, the abyssal creatures looked at him with their dull crimson eyes, filled with confusion. After exchanging glances, they buried their heads even lower…
The Abyssal Emperor pursed his lips, "As expected, I shouldn't have had any expectations for you!"
After taking a deep breath, he lifted the Heaven Saint Crack Abyss Halberd, and a horrifying crimson light shone towards the few abyssal creatures at the front…
Those enveloped by it gradually became fierce, rolling on the ground as if mad…
As if enduring tremendous pain…
The Abyssal Emperor, witnessing this scene, did not intervene but let their wailing echo through the pitch-black space…
Finally, after several hours, they ceased their wailing and slowly stood up from the ground…
They fixed their gaze steadily on the Abyssal Emperor in front of them…
If one observed closely, one would notice a subtle change in their eyes…
They no longer conveyed naivety; instead, they held a sense of brutality…
Seeing this, the Abyssal Emperor nodded in satisfaction, "From today on, you are my servants, and you will witness the future with me!"
"As for those creatures behind you, they will be your next food, devour them as much as you can!"
He used the divinity contained within the Heaven Saint Crack Abyss Halberd to forcibly awaken their sapience…
Although they could not speak, at least they could initially understand his intentions!
These abyssal creatures, whose sapience had been awakened, slowly turned around, staring unhesitatingly at their own kind and launched an attack!
Having been strengthened by the Divine Artifact, their bodies were naturally not something that ordinary abyssal creatures could withstand!
After successively slaying them, they devoured their flesh and blood together…
This bloody spectacle made the Abyssal Emperor laugh, "Yes, that's it. Let these useless creatures become the first step in your evolution!"
When the number of their devoured kin reached a limit, these sapient abyssal creatures muttered a few words, "Emperor... Abyssal Emperor".
…
Meanwhile, after leaving Holy Soul Village, Xu Sheng immediately rushed to the Tiandou Empire!
Looking at the familiar scenes before him, he couldn't help but sigh, "Ren Xue, she must be in the Tiandou Empire Palace at this moment!"
However, with his current identity, it might not be easy to enter!
As he was pondering, he suddenly heard a cold male voice…
"Spirit Hall is conducting business; all unrelated persons, leave this place immediately!"
Xu Sheng glanced sideways and at once spotted those soldiers of the Spirit Hall clad in heavy armor and wielding long spears!
Moreover, they dispersed in every direction, surrounding him in the center…
The civilians of the Tiandou Empire had never seen such a scene and hurriedly fled the area…
Only then did the leading Spirit Hall Soldier issue an order, "You must be Xu Sheng. Surrender immediately and come with us to Martial Soul City!"
"Otherwise, you will be killed on the spot!"
Although unsure why the former was wanted, it was a command from His Holiness!
Xu Sheng narrowed his eyes and thought to himself, "I underestimated the network of the Spirit Hall. I was probably under surveillance the moment I left Holy Soul Village."
Without changing his expression, he replied, "I am not Xu Sheng, you must have captured the wrong person."
However, the latter spoke in an indisputable tone, "After confirmation, the target is indeed you, spare us the nonsense!"
Having said that, he waved his hand…
The Spirit Hall Soldiers slowly closed in on him, who was in the center…
Not far away, the leading Soul Master tasked with closely protecting the carriage watched as the Crown Prince of Tiandou Empire, Xue Qinghe, sat inside…
He asked in puzzlement, "Your Highness, why did you wish to leave the imperial palace? To come to this place!"
On hearing this, Xue Qinghe responded softly, "As the Crown Prince of the Tiandou Empire, it is natural that I understand the situation of the citizens of Tiandou Empire!"
The former had a sudden realization, "Indeed, Your Highness!"
Having such resolve at such a young age, he would undoubtedly lead the Tiandou Empire to glory in the future!
But the next second, the smoothly proceeding carriage suddenly came to a halt…
Xue Qinghe furrowed his brows, asking, "What has happened?"
The Soul Master scrutinized the situation ahead carefully and replied, "Your Highness, up ahead... it seems to be the soldiers of the Spirit Hall capturing a six or seven-year-old child!"
Upon hearing this, Xue Qinghe immediately took interest…
He promptly said, "Oh? Let's go have a look!"
The former grew tense and cautioned, "Your Highness, those people are from Spirit Hall, it's best not to have a conflict!"
Xue Qinghe, however, glanced at him and said indifferently, "This is Tiandou Empire, even the Spirit Hall cannot abduct civilians by force!"
The Soul Master paused, then nodded, "This… You are correct, Your Highness!"
Immediately afterward, they proceeded straight toward the scene…
After stopping, Xue Qinghe spoke first, "I would like to know what crime this child has committed that warranted Spirit Hall's arrest?"
Seeing Xue Qinghe, Xu Sheng's pupils tightened slightly, "He… is he Ren Xue?"
But somehow, it felt different…
The lead Spirit Hall Soldier, upon hearing this, scolded without any politeness, "It's none of your business, get lost!"
This statement immediately angered the Soul Masters responsible for protecting Xue Qinghe…
"How dare you, this man is the Crown Prince of the Tiandou Empire, Xue Qinghe!"
"How could you, members of the Spirit Hall, be so unreasonable? Guards, seize them!"
In an instant, the soldiers of the Tiandou Empire who followed showed hostile expressions…
Upon hearing this, the leading man exclaimed, "What… What? The Crown Prince of Tiandou Empire!"
In a moment, his demeanor underwent a huge change, and he quickly bent down, saying in a quivering voice, "Your Highness, I failed to recognize you, please forgive my ignorance!"
If it were someone else, he would naturally not feel intimidated, but the person before him was the Crown Prince of the Tiandou Empire!
To provoke him rashly, even if they were to die here, the Spirit Hall couldn't say a word in defiance!
Seeing the other party submitting, the Soul Master then spoke to Xue Qinghe, "Your Highness, these men have no respect for anyone, do you want us to discipline them a little?"
The latter shook his head, "No need, they presumably were not aware of my identity, let's spare their lives!"
