Chapter 144: They're All Veteran Actors! (Please Subscribe)_1

Seeing the Elder She Mao and Elder Ci Tun use their Martial Soul True Bodies, the two guest elders heaved a sigh of relief...

Indeed, at critical moments, it was reliable guys like She Mao and Ci Tun you could count on!

Unlike those two guys before, who got taken down instantaneously as if they hadn't had breakfast!

The sole Elder of the Hall of Martial Souls said grimly, "This time, the Saint Heir won't be so lucky!"

The previous two elders from the Hall of Martial Souls likely didn't eat, which is why they fainted from hunger!

But She Mao and Ci Tun would definitely never suffer such embarrassing circumstances as fainting from hunger!

The guest elder next to him slowly curled his lips into a smirk, coldly saying, "Absolutely! Our elders from the Elder Hall, aren't they all battle-hardened? How could they be humiliated by any upstart!"

At the top of the steps, Bi Bidong's pupils emitted a chilling light...

She had an inkling... that things weren't as they appeared to be!

...

The rapidly advancing Elder Ci Tun gave Xu Sheng a subtle wink and said, "Your Highness the Holy Son, you insulted us elders today, and you must be taught a lesson!"

Elder She Mao bellowed, "That's right, even if you are the Saint Heir, you must still apologize to us!"

Then, the Martial Spirit Shadows behind the two elders roared loudly, charging at Xu Sheng with terrifying attacks...

Xu Sheng, of course, noticed their expressions and knew that another lightning-fast kill was about to be enacted...

However, to match the actions of She Mao and others, Xu Sheng clenched his hand, and countless Netherworld Ghostvines quickly stretched out, engulfing She Mao and Ci Tun, who were rushing towards him in mid-air, and completely blocking the view of everyone else!

An elder said coldly, "This Saint Heir doesn't think that such a weak defense can block that, naive!!"

At this moment, the two guest elders from the Hall of Martial Souls seemed to have already envisioned Xu Sheng's Netherworld Ghostvines being ruthlessly destroyed by She Mao and the other, and the subsequent shock in the latter's eyes!

Yet when Bi Bidong observed Xu Sheng's use of the Netherworld Ghostvines, seemingly intentionally blocking everyone's view from the outside, she seemed to grasp the true nature of the events...

However, she did not stop it, because after all, Xu Sheng was her direct disciple! To expose him would be like slapping her own face, wouldn't it?

Moreover, these guest elders were all worthless. Even without this, they probably wouldn't last many rounds against Xu Sheng.

So, Bi Bidong, as the Pope, simply chose to quietly watch the "duel" between Xu Sheng and the two elders of the Hall of Martial Souls.

...

After a while...

The three guest elders of the Hall of Martial Souls furrowed their brows as they saw She Mao and Ci Tun, who had used their Martial Soul True Bodies, wrapped by the plant exuding grey flames, remaining quiet without making a move...

A sense of unease began to surface in each person's heart...

Could it be...

Xu Sheng's lips curled into a smirk, then he slowly opened his palm...

The Netherworld Ghostvines that had enveloped the two Hyper Douluo, She Mao and Ci Tun, slowly unraveled...

Staring at the center, the three guest elders gasped in shock upon seeing the two familiar figures collapsed on the ground, "What???!!!"

The Elder of the Hall of Martial Souls spoke in horror, "Even the two elders, Ci Tun and She Mao, were instantly killed!!"

One guest elder took two steps back, unable to believe, "This Holy Son!! His strength must have reached a level capable of instantly killing Hyper Douluo!!"

If the first time was a fluke!!

Then this was Xu Sheng's second time instantly killing two Hyper Douluo!!

In an instant, a deep fear rose in the hearts of the three guest elders...

Who could possibly withstand that? Instantly killing a Hyper Douluo!

Fear not, this Saint Heir, whose soul power rank is at least wavering between level 98 and 99!!

Xu Sheng swept a cold glance over the remaining three guest elders. "Do any of you wish to give it a try?"

He found these provocations amusing and rather satisfying...

Why hadn't he thought of this approach before? Only those who have experienced it will understand the joy it brings, as opposed to taking action oneself!

One of the guest elders wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and urgently gestured, "No need, no need! His Highness the Holy Son's strength is overwhelming. We are well aware!"

Another guest elder said with a flattering face, "That's right, that's right, with the Holy Son participating in this mission to annihilate souls, those sects obstructing the Hall of Martial Souls will be entirely obliterated!"

The only Elder of the Hall of Martial Souls still standing, seeing the two guest elders showering Xu Sheng with praise, chimed in, "Indeed, worthy of being a disciple of the Pope! His strength and status are in perfect proportion!!"

Xu Sheng looked at the Elders of the Hall of Martial Souls who were still lying on the ground and said indifferently, "That's good enough. We are all from the Martial Soul Hall; I didn't want to make it difficult for you!"

No sooner had the words left his mouth...

... than the Elders of the Hall of Martial Souls lying on the ground trembled...

They then slowly rose, feigning shock, "What happened? Why are we lying on the ground?"

Elder She Mao rubbed his head in confusion, "That's not right, I remember we were about to teach the Holy Son a lesson!"

"I also recall something like that, but what on earth happened to us? How did we all end up here?"

Watching them, Xu Sheng couldn't help but praise, "Impressive, truly impressive, such seasoned actors, giving a full performance!"

The three guest elders cursed under their breath, "Teach him a lesson? You didn't even see his move before falling!"

Yet, at the bottom of their hearts, they also felt somewhat relieved, guessing that if they had stepped up, they would probably have ended up just like these Elders.

After that, these Elders of the Hall of Martial Souls quickly got to their feet, standing again around the two guest elders...

Especially the two guest elders and one Elder of the Hall of Martial Souls who were warily watching Xu Sheng...

Fearing that he might feel displeased with them and might instantly kill them in a flash...

Seeing that the "farce" was more or less over, Bi Bidong shook her Purple-Golden Scepter vigorously and said in a cold voice, "This time, Xu Sheng will organize the mission to annihilate souls. Do you seven have any objections?"

"No objections!" the voices of the Elders of the Hall of Martial Souls rose in unison...

Now who would dare to object? Had they not witnessed the terrifying "instant kill scene" just before?

Bi Bidong nodded her head, "Good, then the mission to annihilate souls will be undertaken by Xu Sheng. If any Elder of the Hall of Martial Souls or staff fails to obey orders, they will be executed without mercy according to the laws for betraying the Hall of Martial Souls!"

After giving all the instructions, Bi Bidong slowly closed her eyes, "You may all leave now!"

Naturally, that also included Xu Sheng...

Everyone within Pope Hall nodded slightly, respectfully saying, "Yes, Your Holiness (Teacher)."

...

As Xu Sheng watched the Elders of the Hall of Martial Souls leaving Pope Hall, his gaze hardened, and he suddenly spoke up, "Wait a moment!"

All the Elders of the Hall of Martial Souls halted their steps, turning their attention to Xu Sheng...

In this mission to annihilate souls, it was the Holy Son who would make all the decisions! These Elders of the Hall of Martial Souls were at best mere foot soldiers!

One of the guest elders quickly asked, "Your Highness the Holy Son? Do you have any further matters?"

Xu Sheng's gaze swept over each Elder and guest elder and said coldly, "Of course, it's time to discuss the annihilation mission with you."

Since the mission of soul annihilation was his responsibility, naturally he must ensure the complete destruction of the sects!!
