Chapter 75 Entering the Inner City of Slaughter City_1

```

The black-clad woman's face showed difficulty, as it was usually those who defeated the Black Knight who could obtain proof from a skull and a serial number.

This man was the first in the history of Slaughter City to directly kill a Black Knight and use the opponent's head as proof...

Since there was no explicit rule, the black-clad woman hesitated, conversed with the Black Armored Warriors lined up beside her, and then finally returned her gaze to Xu Sheng.

A look of apology appeared on the woman's face as she said, "That's enough, please follow me."

This man's strength had been proven by the head of a Black Knight, so he was qualified to enter Slaughter City.

Xu Sheng nodded and, holding the Black Knight's head, followed the woman into the city gates...

As they entered, because of the woman in front of Xu Sheng and the head he was holding, no Black Armored Warriors attempted to stop him.

The black-clad woman explained while leading the way, "I am your guide, and you may ask me anything unclear to you. Within twelve hours, I will answer all your questions; after that, this place will be your home."

Xu Sheng said indifferently, "Does Slaughter City have any restrictive rules?"

The black-clad woman smiled patiently and explained, "The only rule in Slaughter City is there are no rules. You can do anything here. Even a Titled Douluo would become weaker here because they cannot use soul skills, so you can be completely assured."

Xu Sheng's lips curled in scorn; could soul skills truly not be used in Slaughter City?

The smile fleeting, Xu Sheng then asked, "What is the soul power rank of the King of Slaughter here?"

Upon hearing this question, the woman's brows furrowed abruptly, "I cannot answer your question. However, the King of Slaughter is a ruler almost above all others!"

The King of Slaughter had never revealed his true strength and soul power rank, so this was a question she couldn't answer for Xu Sheng.

"How do I leave this place?" Xu Sheng continued with another question.

He wasn't asking to leave, of course, as he felt no aversion to Slaughter City.

A few traces of surprise crossed the woman's face, "The only way to leave is to participate in the Infernal Slaughter Match, become the champion, and then you will have the chance to take on Hell's Path. If you can break out successfully, you will be able to leave Slaughter City, and such a strong person will be granted the title of Killing God!"

Although it was her duty to answer Xu Sheng, she did not believe he would become the champion of the Infernal Slaughter Match...

In the history of Slaughter City, there had only been eight Killing Gods.

Xu Sheng's brows raised slightly, and his tone was cold, "Understood, now take me to the Infernal Slaughterhouse."

This time, the woman's expression turned to shock, "Are you sure? Less than one in ten survive the Infernal Slaughter Match, and it's where the population of Slaughter City decreases the fastest."

Did this man just want to die? This wasn't like the outside world; it was a place without soul skills...

Seeing the black-clad woman dawdle, Xu Sheng allowed his killing intent to diffuse, his eyes taking on a blood-red hue once more, "Stop talking, take me there!"

The woman's eyes flashed with a sharp light, she pursed her thin lips and walked towards another place, "Then please follow me this way, the Infernal Slaughter Match is over here."

Her steps, steady and even, always kept half a step from Xu Sheng...

Xu Sheng's blood-red gaze quietly observed the scene ahead...

As they continued forward, countless confident and mocking laughs were heard...

"Another kid has arrived; looks like we'll have a few more Bloody Marys on the table."

"Judging by his build, he's probably just here to die."

```

Xu Sheng looked in the direction of the voice and saw rows of men as thin as skeletons crouching there. If not for the skin that still wrapped their bones, it's doubtful anyone would believe they were human.

The Ice Rose Sword in his hand suddenly solidified, and he pointed the blade toward those skeletal men...

But he was gently stopped by the woman in black who grasped his wrist and shook her head, "This is the outer city, where killing is forbidden. Only once you enter the inner city of Slaughter City will you find a place truly without rules."

The rows of skeletal men burst into boisterous laughter. "Kid, do you really think you can kill anyone in the outer city?"

"Clearly a clueless newcomer. Well, it doesn't matter; you won't survive once you're inside anyway."

"Just wait, he'll soon realize the terror that awaits him once he's inside," they jeered.

The woman in black swept a cold gaze over these skeletal men...

Only then did the skeletal men notice there was a woman in black!

Upon seeing her clearly, their pupils shrank as if frightened, and they all hurried away from the place.

It took the two of them a full hour to travel from the outer city to a tall black wall in front of Slaughter City...

Behind this wall lay the so-called inner city of Slaughter City, a haven for the mighty to indulge in unbridled freedom.

The city gate in the middle was wide open, without a single Black Armored Warrior or Black Knight standing guard...

Apparently, those who ran Slaughter City had utmost confidence in the inner city.

Seeing Xu Sheng's confusion, the woman in black explained indifferently, "The inner city of Slaughter City requires no guards. Anyone with the courage can enter freely at any time. Moreover, once we enter the inner city, please do not stray more than five meters from me; I cannot guarantee your safety!"

The inner city is not like the outer city; you might be attacked even while resting, eating, or sleeping.

Not to mention newcomers like Xu Sheng who know nothing, they'll probably be dead and buried in no time.

Xu Sheng let out a cold laugh, "Protect my safety! With your abilities, how can you protect me?"

This woman was nothing more than a manager, tasked with special duties bestowed by the King of Slaughter.

If the King of Slaughter were gone, these glass dolls like her wouldn't survive the few who despise them for living in these places without needing to slaughter...

The woman in black heard the disdain in Xu Sheng's tone; her entire being frowned, and she said haughtily, "Because I am the Messenger of the King of Slaughter, no one dares violate the majesty of the King!"

Xu Sheng just snorted coldly, "Move on, I don't need your protection!"

This statement ignited an endless fury in the woman in black. She had just reminded this guy to be careful...

Unbelievably ignorant of the ways of the world, she thought. Fine then, after entering the inner city without my protection, your fate is in the hands of destiny!

Xu Sheng gave her a glance and, not bothering to wait, walked into the inner city gate alone...

The woman in black's face darkened, and she hurriedly walked forward to keep pace with Xu Sheng.

She grumbled to herself, "Damn it! If not for the King of Slaughter's rule that newcomers must have a 24-hour protection period, a failure to provide it would be their dereliction of duty! If it weren't for that, she wouldn't bother with this arrogant man!"
