Chapter 124 Hehehe

Having taken the storage ring into his hand, Su Wan disregarded his injuries and swiftly probed the ring with his divine sense.

Then, upon seeing the dragon corpse floating inside, he instantly breathed a sigh of relief.

However, just as she could no longer support herself and was about to lean against the tree trunk to rest,

Suddenly, a chilling laugh rang in her ears.

"Hehehe!"

"As expected, a mother's strength is boundless! Madam Su has certainly given me quite a show."

"It's a pity you probably won't be able to take this dragon corpse with you."

The unfamiliar voice suddenly rang out, startling Su Wan.

She immediately raised her head and warily scanned her surroundings.

However, no one could be seen in any direction.

Just as she began to have doubts and was about to send a distress signal to the sky...

Suddenly, a black chain with hooks and claws shot out from her blind spot like a venomous snake, piercing straight through her shoulder blade.

"Aaaaaah!!"

Su Wan let out a piercing scream.

This grappling hook can not only penetrate flesh, but also attack the soul, and it has a powerful suction force.

If Su Wan hadn't spent years cultivating his sword, developing mental strength comparable to a sixth-level alchemist, his soul would probably have been torn from his body and separated from his flesh by now.

"Damn it, who are you?"

"You coward, show yourself now!"

Su Wan knelt on the ground, her left hand gripping the black chain that pierced through her shoulder tightly, her face extremely pale.

She was utterly exhausted, with blood still flowing from the wounds in her abdomen and shoulder blades. Coupled with the fact that her soul had just been pierced by the grappling hook, she was on the verge of collapse.

After her angry roar, the mastermind hiding in the shadows finally revealed himself, showing his inhuman and ghostly appearance under the black cloak.

"You are—the mysterious person who appeared next to Han Feng!?"

Upon seeing the newcomer, Su Wan's pupils contracted, and then his eyes instantly filled with fear and resentment.

As the wife of the Black Emperor Sect's leader, she was aware of many secrets within the Black Corner Region.

Among them was news about Han Feng, the "Medicine King" who suddenly rose to prominence over the past few decades.

Rumor has it that this "Medicine King" started his rebellion not only because of his exquisite alchemy skills, but also because of the support of a terrifying force from outside the Black Corner Region.

This faction is said to consist almost entirely of people dressed in black robes, appearing and disappearing without a trace, and almost none of the people they have been seen with are below the level of a Dou Huang.

Su Wan initially thought this rumor was just hearsay, but now it seems that it might actually be true.

Such a powerful organization is lurking behind Han Feng, and no one knows what it is plotting.

This is far too dangerous for the Black Emperor Sect, which is also a force in the Black Corner Region.

It's just a pity that she probably won't be able to pass this message on to her husband.

"Hehehe, I didn't expect that I had underestimated the intelligence capabilities of your Black Emperor Sect."

"Our Soul Palace usually operates in secrecy, yet news of it still leaked out. Tsk tsk, it seems we really can't underestimate the heroes of the world."

"However, this saves me the trouble of introducing myself. Originally, I was entrusted by that kid Han Feng to take away the soul of your Black Emperor Sect's alchemist Qi Mu."

"But I never expected to see you, Mrs. Su, by chance."

"Hehehe, a spiritual soul comparable to a sixth-level alchemist, Madam Su, you are truly gifted."

"Souls of this caliber are rare even in the Central Plains."

"Since Madam Su is about to pass away, it would be a waste to keep your soul inside her."

"You'd better just obediently become my spoils of war! I happen to have my eye on the treasure in your storage ring as well, so I'll gladly take it all."

As he spoke, the Soul Palace protector let out a strange laugh and suddenly pulled on the iron chain in his hand.

Su Wan immediately felt a tremendous force strike her, and an extremely painful tearing sensation filled her entire brain.

"Ughhhhhh!!!"

"You bastard—you bastard, I'll fight you to the death!"

Realizing that he was powerless to reverse the situation, Su Wan decided to commit suicide by self-destruction, hoping to send a signal to Qi Mu in the distance, urging him to escape immediately.

However, the methods of the Soul Palace Protector were far beyond her imagination, and before her internal fighting spirit could even begin to expand...

As soon as the Soul Palace Protector's hand flashed with black light, Su Wan, on the other end of the chain, felt a heavy blow to her brain, and then her eyes rolled back and she lost consciousness.

This fierce battle lasted only two breaths, and neither Qi Mu and the others, who were fighting in the distance, noticed what was happening.

In a fit of passion, the Soul Palace Protector absorbed Su Wan's soul into his hand.

"Tch, what a pity. Due to years of injuries and illnesses, his soul level is only at the early stage of the Spirit Realm."

"After losing a body, even consciousness becomes difficult to maintain."

"Well, something is better than nothing, and it even comes with a dragon corpse."

The Soul Palace Protector first shook his head with some regret, then eagerly stepped forward and reached out to touch the storage ring in Su Wan's arms.

He didn't even glance at the already dead Kui Ling beside him.

Although that guy has become a peak Dou Huang, in terms of soul realm, he is probably only at the peak of the mortal realm, and he was also severely injured because of Su Wan's thunder blade.

Therefore, the Soul Palace Protector didn't even look down on the other party's broken soul.

Just as he was about to obtain the storage ring, Qingling, who had been waiting for a long time, finally launched an attack.

"Crush! (Word of Power - Judgment)"

A cool voice came from Qingling's lips.

The Soul Palace Protector, who had been all smiles, suddenly stiffened as he felt himself being locked onto by a terrifying killing intent.

But before he could react, countless sharp blades appeared out of thin air around him, turning into a rolling meat grinder, slicing him apart.

Qingling's Judgment is a strike that can attack the soul, so the Soul Palace Protector's soul body felt excruciating pain with just one breath.

In the blink of an eye, the hunched and emaciated body was hacked to pieces.

Fortunately, the Soul Palace's techniques have the ability to enhance the soul's defense and recovery, so this sneak attack did not cause too much damage to the Soul Palace's protectors.

Even so, the Soul Palace Protector was still furious.

Since he was transferred to the Black Corner Region, he has roamed this barren place for decades, and he has never been in such a sorry state.

It's unbelievable that someone would dare to launch a sneak attack on him!

He was determined to make the other person suffer a terrible death.

"Damn it, get out here!"

The Soul Palace Protector roared, and instantly unleashed terrifying black energy from his body, launching indiscriminate attacks in all directions.

Hearing the other party's furious roar, Qingling had no intention of hiding any longer and simply revealed herself to him as he wished.

"Heh heh, as you wish, take this kick!"

Qingling chuckled softly, then brought her feet together and launched a flying kick through the air.

Dodging the terrifying attack launched by the Soul Palace Guardian, he delivered a powerful Rabbit Kick to the opponent's face.
