Chapter 24 Evil thoughts

Kill people and seize treasures!

Dai Chong understood what Lao Liu meant.

It is not surprising that this kind of thing happens to soul masters. If civilian soul masters want to go further, they can only rely on various means to fight for it.

However, under the high-pressure control of Wuhun Palace, the ambitions of some people have been suppressed, so this kind of thing happens relatively rarely.

Without the Wuhun Palace, I don’t know what this continent would be like.

Just like the Far North, which is beyond the jurisdiction of Wuhun Palace, killing people and seizing treasures is much more brutal than the Star Dou Forest. There is almost no scruple about killing people there.

Every year, a large number of soul masters disappear into the ice and snow and never come back. No one knows whether those people froze to death, starved to death, or were killed by others.

"You're crazy! This is the Star Forest, not the Arctic Snowfield!" Dai Chong glared at Lao Liu.

The Great Star Forest lies between the two empires, and the control of the Spirit Hall is much stronger than that of the Far North Snowfield.

Moreover, they received this commission from Wuhun Palace. If something happened to their employer, Wuhun Palace would definitely investigate thoroughly. It would be terrible if they were traced to them!

"Boss, we can end the mission first, and then ask for the secret method!" Lao Liu's eyes flashed with fierceness: "Besides, what if the Wuhun Hall finds out? At worst, we can escape into the killing city!"

The city of killing, the last place for all those hunted by Wuhun Palace, the place where evil people go to escape, an existence that even Wuhun Palace cannot destroy.

If they are discovered, they can hide in the Killing City, and Wuhun Palace can't do anything to them.

Dai Chong was still undecided, his face uncertain.

"Boss, let me tell you the truth. I know my talent and I will never be able to break through the Soul King in this life, but I am not willing to do so. I want to go one step further. I think about it day and night. I want to become a Soul Saint. I I want to live a good life!" Lao Liu gasped, his voice low but powerful, as if he was venting his dissatisfaction.

"Look at the scars on my face. I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to find a good wife in this life. I am not willing to marry a wife with no soul power. I have struggled for most of my life, but I don't want my son to become a soulless wife." Waste. I want to find a soul master!"

"Only when we become Soul Emperors or even Soul Saints can we truly be regarded as masters. We don't have to look at people's faces to have female soul masters look up to me!"

"I……"

At this moment, Cheng Xiao suddenly walked out of the forest and shouted: "Okay, let's go!"

Lao Liu's body suddenly stiffened, as if a hand had strangled his neck. All his words were stuck in his throat. Cold sweat broke out on his back. His palms were so nervous that they were sticky. He even held his breath subconsciously, as if in his heart. The filth inside was all exposed to the sun at this moment, making him want to find a crack in the ground to crawl in.

Dai Chong also became nervous, but he was still calm. He patted Lao Liu and asked him to relax. Then he looked at Cheng Xiao and asked, "It's so fast today?"

"Ha, little brother is so fast this time. Are you dissatisfied with this soul beast?" Lao Liu turned around stiffly and gave an ugly smile.

"Practice makes perfect." Naturally, Cheng Xiao would not tell them about his failure. He shook his head and made an excuse.

Not noticing anything strange on Cheng Xiao's face, Dai Chong and Lao Liu breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that they had not overheard their conversation.

"Then let's go!" Dai Chong greeted everyone.

Immediately, the seven people escorted Cheng Xiao to hunt the next soul beast again. A few people packed up their things. Lao Liu was happy and did not dare to say anything. He buried his head as if he wanted to hide himself in the shadows.

"Snapped!"

Suddenly, a palm was placed on his shoulder. Lao Liu was startled and immediately turned around and retreated.

"Calm down!" Dai Chong shouted in a low voice.

Realizing that it was Dai Chong behind him, Lao Liu relaxed.

"Nothing has happened yet! Why does it look like a ghost has possessed you?"

"..." Lao Liu opened his mouth and said with a wry smile: "I understand."

Dai Chong glanced at the unaware Cheng Xiao in the distance, leaned into Lao Liu's ear, and whispered: "Find an opportunity, let the brothers discuss it."

Lao Liu's eyes widened immediately, and he looked up at Dai Chong in surprise: "Boss, do you agree..."

"Shh!"

Dai Chong hated Lao Liu and grabbed Lao Liu's neck: "Keep your voice down! I'm really not afraid of being exposed!"

Lao Liu shut his mouth and nodded repeatedly.

"Be careful, don't let that kid notice anything unusual."

"Ok, I know!"

Only then did Dai Chong let Lao Liu go with satisfaction.

——

"stand up!"

A sharp shout sounded, and a huge shadow stood up from its body.

This is the seventh soul beast. There was no accident with the last soul beast. The Xuanming Turtle, which was about three thousand years old, finally stood up and became Cheng Xiao's shadow soldier when Cheng Xiao gave his third order.

That huge body was extremely oppressive, but in front of Cheng Xiao, it crawled on the ground like a puppy.

At this point, he finally collected the shadows of six soul beasts, namely the tiger demon cat for agile attack, the thunder striped tiger for strong attack, the spotted-headed giant anaconda for control, the mysterious turtle for defense, and... the blazing one who controls the air. Fire kite.

Deeply influenced by the keyboard warriors of his previous life, Cheng Xiao will not forget the importance of air superiority.

"Come back!" Cheng Xiao showed a relaxed smile and took the Xuanming Turtle into his shadow.

The phantoms of the six soul beasts struggled at Cheng Xiao's feet for a while before returning to calm.

Seeing them discussing and dividing the territory, Cheng Xiao walked out. The rhythmic purple soul ring on the Xuanming Turtle seemed to have lost its luster.

"Brother, is it over?" Dai Chong asked with a grin when he saw Cheng Xiao walking out.

"Yeah." Cheng Xiao nodded.

"The seven soul beasts you requested have been hunted. Look..." Dai Chong rubbed his fingers and asked with a smile.

In fact, the shadow extraction of the three-eyed giant ape failed, and Cheng Xiao now only got the shadows of six soul beasts, but there was no way he could argue with Dai Chong and the seven people about this matter. After all, they were paid to do things, and they agreed to only kill seven soul beasts. Naturally, there will be no extra efforts.

"Let's go to Wuhun Hall." Cheng Xiao nodded.

Then the eight people left the Star Dou Forest and arrived at the martial arts branch hall where they had agreed to hand over.

Arriving at the entrustment office, Cheng Xiao took out a seal and handed it to the person in charge of Wuhun Palace.

The person in charge took the seal, and after searching in the task book, found the other half of the seal, matched the two, and confirmed that they could be combined into one. Then he checked Cheng Xiao's personal information and code words according to the records in the task book.

After everything was confirmed to be correct, the person in charge handed the task order to Dai Chong and others.

After getting the commission application form, Dai Chongxi smiled widely, raised his hands and asked, "Brother, do you want to go back? Do you need us to send you off?"

"No, you can go on your own! I have something else to do." Cheng Xiao waved his hand and quickly left the Wuhun Hall.

Dai Chong squinted his eyes, waited until Cheng Xiao disappeared from the hall, and winked at Lao San: "Lao San, you are fast, follow up, don't lose it, we will go and collect the commission first, and then come back to you, remember Leave a trail."

The third child nodded, rushed out of Wuhun Hall without saying a word, and followed Cheng Xiao in the direction where he disappeared.

"Come on, let's go back quickly! After we get the commission, we can find out what's going on with this kid!"
