Doupo: I, the Immortal Emperor, am unrivaled in the world!

Chapter 179: Soul Palace Takes Action
Soul Palace Headquarters, Heavenly Palace.

Deep within the magnificent building with a dark style, a middle-aged man in a black and gold robe stood under the black and terrifying soul-hunting sickle.

A scroll of the Soul Palace's secret scroll was suspended in front of him. After reading the words on it, the middle-aged man frowned and said:
"Hasn't the identity of the person who killed those venerables of the Northern Territory Branch Temple in the Hongshan Mountains in the Northern Territory been discovered yet?"

"Palace Master, the person who made the move is basically confirmed to be a Dou Sheng, and his strength is no less than two stars. There are only a handful of forces in the entire Zhongzhou that possess such a strong person. The person who made the move is extremely mysterious. Judging from the posture of the move and the residual aura at the scene, it is most likely that he is a strong person from the three major clans of Thunder, Fire, and Ancient. There is a small probability... that it was the Heavenly Demon Phoenix Clan and the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan who made the move."

Standing one step below the Soul Palace Master Hun Mie Sheng is the Soul Palace's Deputy Master, who is responsible for tracking the Hongshan incident that happened more than half a year ago.

The Dou Zun strongmen are the backbone of the Soul Palace and the overlord of Zhongzhou. What's more, this matter is actually related to the Dou Sheng strongmen.

Also, since the Hongshan incident, Su Qingyun's existence has attracted more and more attention, and more and more people have gradually believed those rumors.

After all, if those rumors were not true, how could this young man attract the Dou Sheng to take action, kill the Dou Zun powerful man in seconds and rescue him?
With all these factors combined, it is difficult for Hun Mie Sheng not to pay attention.

Unfortunately, the three immortals of the ancient clan acted suddenly and had the intention of hiding themselves. After more than half a year of investigation, the Soul Palace was unable to determine the identity of the person who took action, nor could they find any trace of Su Qingyun.

At this moment, each of the five forces mentioned by the Deputy Lord of the Soul Palace made Hun Mie Sheng frown.

"Each of these five forces is not something that the Soul Palace can afford to provoke, let alone a joint search of all five forces."

"So let's just leave it at that? Although the Black and White Venerable is at a high level and has done a lot for the palace over the years, he is still far from the first level after all. It is not worth it for us to make enemies with the Fighting Saint."

"Of course we can't just let it go like this. If it was just a normal case of being killed because of an enemy, it wouldn't be considered an injustice and we could just turn a blind eye to it. But this time, the clan has heard about it, so I have to give them a result."

Hun Mie Sheng sighed.

The clan he was talking about was one of the eight ancient clans in Zhongzhou, and also the top force that opened the Soul Palace - the Soul Clan!
Although Hun Mie Sheng looks glorious on the outside and commands the entire Soul Palace, only he himself knows that there are many people in the Soul Clan who are stronger and have higher status than him.

Especially the great man in the tribe who had been in seclusion for a thousand years. He was filled with awe just by the mere sight of his back appearing in his mind.

"Who on earth is this Su Qingyun?"

"Who on earth spread the news about him, and who is around him?"

Hun Mie Sheng murmured.

The Deputy Master of the Soul Hall said at this time:
"I was just about to report that this is one of the few good news in recent times. Our people have already found out that the source of the spread of the news about Su Qingyun should be two young women. Their realms should not be high, and they will not exceed the Dou Zun realm."

"They come from a relatively remote place on the mainland, called the Gama Empire. This Su Qingyun has left many rumors in the Gama Empire, including her appearance and talent. They shouldn't be false."

“It’s worth pointing out that this Su Qingyun once caused a stir in a third-rate force. We captured the people who were at the scene and searched their souls, and learned about some of Su Qingyun’s relatives and friends—he has two daughters, and they are both very talented.

There is also a younger brother named Xiao Yan. This kid is nothing special, except that his talent is a little better than his peers from third-rate forces. He is not good enough in Zhongzhou and can be ignored. "

"However, we just checked this kid named Xiao Yan and found something surprising. The family behind this kid, the Xiao family, is very likely the ancient family that the higher-ups are looking for, the Xiao clan!"

"What?!" As soon as these words came out, Hun Mie Sheng trembled all over, his face full of surprise:
"Really? Xiao clan?"

"Yes."

"Whether it's true or not, as long as there is this possibility, it's enough."

Hun Mie Sheng waved his sleeves and walked out.

The deputy hall master of the Soul Hall quickly caught up with him: "Hall Master, where are you going?"

"Of course, we are going to capture the people of the Xiao clan."

“We have already captured the Xiao clan, but it seems that this family has a master behind the scenes, or they are very smart and have anticipated our actions.

Most of the clan members hid themselves. We captured some of them and searched their souls, but they didn't know anything about their family and were too weak. After the soul search, they either became demented or died. The two clan leaders with relatively high status in the Xiao family who were left behind were Xiao Yan's father and elder.

Along the way, our people didn't dare to search their souls, for fear of killing them. The realms of these two people were also extremely low. Not to mention searching their souls, they couldn't even bear the slightest bit of torture from our Soul Clan. I don't know how to deal with them anymore."

The deputy hall master of the Soul Hall felt very troubled when talking about this matter.

However, when Hun Miesheng heard this, his eyes lit up:

"You are still somewhat useful. You brought me something useful. The Xiao family's patriarch and elders should not touch them anymore. Keep them alive and raise them. It would be best if you could raise their realm. They will be of great use to me."

"First, the clan members must decide how to deal with these two people. Second, since the Xiao clan leader is Xiao Yan's father, and Xiao Yan is Su Qingyun's good friend, we can use them as a seesaw and bait to lure out this kid and his friends. If we can use them to lure out Su Qingyun and catch him, that would be even better."

"Now, take me to see them in person!"

Hun Mie Sheng made the decision immediately.

When Su Qingyun left, he advised the Xiao family to know when to retreat and to keep a proper retreat route. Xiao Zhan really listened to him. In the following two years, he opened up more than ten villages of various sizes in the Warcraft Mountains and hid in them. Therefore, when the Xiao family was in trouble, most of these people survived.

However, Xiao Zhan, the clan leader, was still captured in order to cover the evacuation of his clan members.

But what's funny is that although the Soul Palace caught the men, they didn't dare to kill them or let them go. The two men were both stubborn. If the punishment was too light, they would never give in. If the punishment was too heavy, they were worried about killing them.

Little did they know that one of the Xiao clan's Tuoshe Ancient Emperor Jades, which the Soul clan had been longing for, had already gone to the Ancient clan.

But no matter what, the appearance of the Xiao clan, after the Su Qingyun incident, once again added fuel to the fire for the Soul clan.

The Soul Palace and even the entire Soul Clan began to hunt for Xiao Yan and Su Qingyun!
