Chapter 184: Hun Mie Sheng's Command

"After all, it makes sense..."

Upon hearing Hun Sha's reminder, Hun Mie Sheng suddenly felt as if he had been struck by a bolt of lightning, instantly understanding everything!

So that's how it is!

He finally got it.

Hun Mie Sheng's enlightenment was complete.

Now he knew what he needed to do.

...

"Thank you for the reminder, Elder!" Hun Mie Sheng quickly expressed his gratitude. With Hun Sha's guidance, he now had a much clearer understanding of what he should do.

Hun Sha advised, "Hun Mie Sheng, make sure to perform well! This is a great opportunity, and this lady is no ordinary person!"

"Yes!" Hun Mie Sheng replied, "Thank you, Elder!"

Hun Mie Sheng was a clever person, and with Hun Sha's hints, he naturally knew what to do.

After bidding farewell to Hun Sha, Hun Mie Sheng returned to the Soul Hall.

Once back in the Soul Hall, Hun Mie Sheng promptly summoned the powerful members of the hall. 

Ever since the order to stop capturing souls had been given, most of the powerful members had returned to the headquarters and retired. After all, the main purpose of the Soul Hall was to capture powerful souls from the continent.

With no more souls to capture, they had nothing else to do.

...

The Soul Hall headquarters consisted of three halls:

The Sky Hall

The Earth Hall

The Human Hall

At this moment, the powerful members and elders of the Soul Hall had gathered early in the main hall, engaging in lively discussions.

Eighth Tianzun turned to Seventh Tianzun beside him and asked, "Seventh Brother, why did the Lord summon so many elders? Is there something big going on?"

Seventh Tianzun replied, "You're asking me? I don't know either. I came here with you, and I don't have any inside information!"

With a change in tone, Seventh Tianzun said, "If you want inside information, you should ask our eldest brother! He might know something."

"True!"

Eighth Tianzun nodded and approached the eldest brother, seeking answers, "Big Brother, do you know why the Lord summoned us? Is there something significant going to happen?"

The eldest brother, First Tianzun, glanced at Eighth Tianzun and calmly said, "I don't know. The Lord went to the Soul Clan and summoned us afterward. It's probably because the Soul Clan has some orders for us."

Upon hearing this, Eighth Tianzun's eyes lit up, and he said, "Big Brother, do you think we might be planning to attack the Gu Clan?"

Nowadays, among the ancient clans, only the Gu Clan and the Soul Clan remained. There was only room for one, so Eighth Tianzun speculated that the Soul Hall might be planning to confront the Gu Clan.

The possibility that the Lord had summoned them to lead the attack against the Gu Clan resonated with Eighth Tianzun. And he wasn't alone; other powerful members in the hall were having similar thoughts.

The hall was bustling with discussions.

As the black mist appeared above the dark spot, the previously lively hall instantly fell into silence!

Silence!

A deathly silence!

Terrifyingly quiet!

Not a single sound!

...

This black mist was none other than Hun Mie Sheng, the master of the Soul Hall. The mysterious and eerie mist dispersed, revealing a figure in a black robe at the end of the hall.

Hun Mie Sheng!

The Lord of the Soul Hall!

"Greetings, Lord!"

"Greetings, Lord!"

"Greetings, Lord!"

...

The people in the hall lowered their heads and respectfully bowed to Hun Mie Sheng.

"Hmm!"

Hun Mie Sheng nodded slightly, his gaze overlooking the many powerful members of the Soul Hall from above.

A suppressed aura emanated from Hun Mie Sheng, enveloping the entire hall.

Dominance!

The aura of a powerful individual!

Hun Mie Sheng's eyes swept across the room and landed on a black-robed man standing at the front. He calmly said, "Hun Douluo."

"Lord!"

Hun Douluo?

The Vice-Master of the Soul Hall.

Within the Soul Hall, aside from Hun Mie Sheng, he held the highest authority and had reached the Three-Star Dou Sheng Late Stage in strength.

He was the second strongest person in the Soul Hall, second only to Hun Mie Sheng.

Upon hearing Hun Mie Sheng's words, Hun Douluo quickly stepped forward.

Hun Mie Sheng didn't stop there; he continued, "Hun Qing."

"Lord!"

Hun Qing also stepped forward.

Satisfied with Hun Douluo and Hun Qing's presence, Hun Mie Sheng said, "Hun Douluo, Hun Qing, both of you will go to the Nine Serene Ground Python Clan. Tell them that the Soul Hall has taken over the Dark Serpent Mountain Range."

"The Nine Serene Ground Python Clan can either submit or leave the Dark Serpent Mountain Range!"

As Hun Mie Sheng spoke, his overbearing aura was evident, exuding unmatched dominance and confidence in his words.

Boom!

As Hun Mie Sheng's words fell, it was like a shocking thunder that exploded in the calm hearts of the people in the hall, stirring up a storm of astonishment and waves of shock! The level of shock was indescribable!

Just moments ago, they were still discussing and whispering about how the Soul Clan was going to take action against the Gu Clan.

They believed that the Soul Hall was preparing to lead the charge.

But they never expected...

The Soul Hall wasn't targeting the Gu Clan at all; instead, they were preparing to confront the Nine Serene Ground Python Clan. This... was quite a sudden reversal!

In an instant.

It was difficult to accept!

The gap between reality and imagination was incredibly vast, to the point where it couldn't be described in words. There was a chasm between reality and imagination that was impossible to bridge!

Hun Qing and Hun Douluo were taken aback and surprised upon hearing the command. They had thought they were going to attack the Gu Clan, but now they were being ordered to confront the Nine Serene Ground Python Clan!

There had been no signs or warnings beforehand!

Attacking the Gu Clan seemed normal, as they were both ancient races, and only the Gu Clan and the Soul Clan remained as ancient races on the continent, and they were like two tigers on a mountain. 

But attacking the Nine Serene Ground Python Clan came as a sudden shock, without the slightest preparation.

After recovering from their initial astonishment, Hun Douluo and Hun Qing quickly responded, "Yes, we will obey!"

"Hmm!" Hun Mie Sheng said seriously, "Hun Douluo, Hun Qing, this matter is extremely important. You must handle it with care. Try peaceful persuasion first, and if that fails, you may resort to force. Understand?"

"We understand," Hun Douluo and Hun Qing nodded in agreement.

Hun Mie Sheng's gaze continued to sweep over the rest of the powerful members of the Soul Hall as he continued, "First Tianzun, Second Tianzun, Third Tianzun, Fourth Tianzun, the four of you will remain at the headquarters of the Soul Hall." 

"If the Vice-Masters engage in battle with the Nine Serene Ground Python Clan, you must fully support them!"

"Yes!" Four figures stepped forward in the hall, bowing respectfully.

"Fifth Tianzun, Sixth Tianzun, Seventh Tianzun, Eighth Tianzun, and Ninth Tianzun, you will accompany me to the northwest," Hun Mie Sheng continued with his orders.

"Yes!"

As Hun Mie Sheng's words fell, five more people stepped forward in the hall.

The hearts of those present in the hall were extremely unsettled. This was because... the final command of the Lord Hun Mie Sheng not only assigned tasks to others but also required him to personally take action.

Since the establishment of the Soul Hall, there had been instances where the Lord Hun Mie Sheng personally took action, but each time, it was a matter of utmost importance to the Soul Hall.

This time, with the Lord Hun Mie Sheng leading the expedition to the northwest, it demonstrated the immense significance of this mission.
