Chapter 478 Soul Owl
Muzun Lao stared at Amon with his piercing eyes sunken into his eye sockets and said:
"I heard that you took the initiative to join the Soul Palace and became an envoy under the Protector Xiao?"
Starting from the protector, he is regarded as a formal member of the soul palace, and the soul envoy is the power of the protector to develop on his own.
Generally speaking, a respected elder would not care about the situation of a small soul envoy.
However, judging from the not very respectful attitude that Protector Xiao had towards Mr. Mu Zun just now, Amon guessed that the identity of Protector Xiao was not simple.
What Mu Zunlao really paid attention to was the Protector Xiao, and he was incidentally included in the observation object.
So the situation of Xiao Dharma Protector is actually similar to the children of company executives coming to practice in the company? No wonder her painting style seems to be incompatible with other Soul Palace protectors.
Amon looked at Mr. Mu Zun and nodded: "Yes."
"Can you tell me why you want to join the Soul Palace?"
"For power." Amon answered without hesitation with a smile on his face.
Muzun Lao nodded slightly: "You made a right decision, and my Soul Palace can give you strength. Work harder..."
He was already crazy enough. If he tried harder, he might not be able to kill all the Black Corner Territory... Protector Xiao opened his mouth and closed it again.
Amon said seriously: "I will."
Ah... You'd better say goodbye. I don't want to be implicated and hunted down by some strong man because of you... If this continues, everyone in the Soul Palace will probably start shouting and beating me!
Old Muzun touched the ring on his index finger with his right hand. A faint white light flashed, and a copper token appeared in his hand.
Raising his wrist slightly, the space was distorted, and the copper token floated quietly in front of Amon.
"This is your guardian card. From now on, you will no longer be subordinate to the guardian owl, but will directly take orders from me. You can come here to submit your soul and redeem rewards." Mr. Mu Zun didn't say much and seemed rather cold.
"If there's nothing else, just go down."
"Yes." Amon walked slowly out along the path he came from.
After he left, only Mr. Mu Zun and Protector Xiao were left in the hall.
"He's already like that, and you still encourage him to kill? Isn't this inconsistent with the purpose of our secret operations?" Protector Xiao asked.
Mu Zunlao replied with a smile: "This is an order from above, requiring us to speed up the collection of souls, even if more are exposed, even if it arouses dissatisfaction and hostility from all parties, it doesn't matter."
After a short pause, he continued: "There is a smell of an approaching storm... Among the Soul Clan, I can only be considered a middle-level member, and I don't know much. Didn't your brother tell you? He It should be clearer."
"I sneaked out while he was in seclusion." Protector Xiao said something that almost made Old Muzun's heart stop.
Mu Zunlao was silent for a long time before he said: "Why don't you go back to the soul world...Miss Soul Owl, if you have any accident here, your brother will skin me."
"The soul world is too depressing. I want to stay a little longer... It is said that my brother's bloodline was not very good back then. He started out as a protector and finally became a high-ranking member of the clan. I also want to give it a try and see if I can do it all over again. His path." The soul owl did not deliberately make his voice low and hoarse, but said in his original clear voice.
"A big event has happened in the soul world recently. I think you will be interested in it." Muzun Lao said in a persuasive manner.
The soul owl became interested: "What's going on?"
"Master Soul Miasma, one of the Three Sword Saints, wants to challenge Master Soul Mirror, one of the Four Demon Saints. If I hadn't been stationed here, I would have wanted to go back and watch the battle." Mu Zunlao said with a hint of regret.
"Oh, he's itchy again..." Hun Owl didn't seem surprised at all and nodded calmly.
…
In Soul Emperor City, Xiao Zhan and Amon were walking on the street, looking at the various shops on both sides of the road, with a little surprise in their eyes.
Unlike the deathly silence and depression he imagined, the lives of the soul clan people in the soul world seemed to be no different from the outside world.
The shops on both sides sell not only all the items related to cultivation, but also a small number of medicinal materials, magic cores, elixirs and other items used for cultivation. More are some daily necessities, seats, curtains, clothes, tableware...
There are children running around on the street with candy figures. Occasionally, they accidentally bump into practitioners who are very powerful at first glance. They are not beaten or blamed. Often, those who are bumped have to comfort them. Children who dropped candy or fell to the ground crying.
Xiao Zhan and Amon stopped. In front, there was a man who looked like a young man and was wearing a black hunting suit. He was looking helplessly at a little girl next to him who was crying and wiping snot and tears on his trouser legs.
"Tsk, it's really interesting. Your soul world actually looks like this." Xiao Zhan and Amon pinched the socket of his right eye and said with great interest.
"Otherwise?" Hun Qiu, who was following him, asked.
"I thought that your soul clan had a strict hierarchy and obvious hierarchies. Those in high positions could bully the weak at will, while those at the bottom were exploited and oppressed, and they lived in constant fear."
Hunqiu shook his head: "It is said that it was like that in the distant past, but since the clan leader took charge of our clan, this situation has changed.
"He attaches great importance to ordinary people and does not allow those in high positions to bully them. Under his guidance, the people at the top do not mind giving more tolerance to these people.
"Of course, it is limited to protecting ordinary people. Those who have stepped into practice and strive to develop upward are not included in this.
“Generally, the boundary is Dou Wang. Those who are Dou Wang and above need to go to the Soul Hall inside the Soul Realm to register and become a preparatory member of the Soul Hall.
“On the road of cultivation, our Soul Clan still believes that the strong are the kings, and implements a strict and even cruel competition system.”
The young man in front finally used two candied haws to appease the little girl and get rid of her clutches. He turned around and looked in the direction of Xiao Zhan Amon, saying hello:
“You came out of seclusion, Hun Qiu?”
“I’ve been out for a few days, and now I’m carrying out the task given by the clan leader.” Hun Qiu said calmly, “I heard that you are going to challenge the Soul Mirror?”
“Yeah, I will definitely not lose so badly this time... I have learned a new heaven-level fighting skill!” The young man replied with a smile.
He then said: “When are you free? Let’s go for a drink. We three swordsmen haven’t gathered for two or three years.”
Hun Qiu shook his head: “Let’s talk about it later... I still have a task.”
“Task? "
"Well... he is the leader of the Xiao clan, and my job is to keep an eye on him." Hun Qiu raised his chin towards Xiao Zhan Amon.
"The leader of the Xiao clan?" The young man looked at Xiao Zhan Amon and said suspiciously: "He looks weak... Do you need to keep an eye on him?"
"The clan leader's order."
"Don't be so rigid, just find a Dou Zun to keep an eye on him." The young man said carelessly.
Xiao Zhan Amon looked at the young man with a smile on his face: "Hello, I'm Xiao Zhan, what's your name?"
"Hun Clan, Hun Miasma." The young man did not ignore Xiao Zhan Amon because of his weakness, and responded with a little arrogance.
"I think you are a good-looking man, do you want to be my son?" Xiao Zhan Amon smiled and stretched out his right hand with five fingers open.
"Ah? Me? "Hun Zhu pointed at himself, with a puzzled look on his face.
He looked at Hun Qiu with a questioning look in his eyes.
Hun Qiu smiled and said with a hint of joking: "You decide for yourself."
Hun Zhu glanced at Hun Qiu, then at Xiao Zhan Amon, holding his chin with a thoughtful look.
Hun Qiu was slightly surprised... No, are you really considering it?
