The Evil Soul Master is actually myself

It's no secret that the Holy Spirit Cult is preparing to cooperate with the Sun and Moon Empire.

"Hu Qingping, I heard your mission failed. What happened?" A mysterious figure in black appeared on the blurry screen and spoke in a hoarse voice.

Hu Qingping's expression remained unchanged as she respectfully knelt down and said, "Unfortunately, we encountered people from Shrek Academy passing by, and Gu Tong and Zhong Liren were killed."

Upon hearing this, the atmosphere seemed to freeze. Hu Qingping slowed her breathing and lowered her head to avoid offending the leader of the Holy Sect.

After a long silence, the hoarse voice slowly asked, "Who killed Zhongli?"

He didn't care about Gu Tong's life or death at all, but Zhong Liren was his direct descendant, his own son, and his cultivation level was as high as the eighth ring, which could be said to be among the world's top experts, but now he died in a remote corner.

Su Ming watched the show while cracking sunflower seeds. He had a strange feeling at the time, as if he were Hu Qingping, and he saw whatever Hu Qingping saw.

"Bad review, not from God's perspective," Su Ming said regretfully.

Hu Qingping, kneeling before the altar, hesitated for a moment before decisively saying, "It is Su Xuan'er, the newly appointed elder of Shrek Academy, with the Blood God of Slaughter Martial Soul."

Upon hearing this, Su Ming nearly restrained Hu Qingping from committing suicide. Damn it, she betrayed her own people!

"Shrek?" The phantom pondered for a few seconds before saying, "The Holy Church is at a critical moment right now, so it's not convenient to retaliate. We'll talk about it another day."

"As for you, since you failed to kill the owner of the Angelic Martial Soul, you must accept punishment," the Holy Spirit Cult Leader said authoritatively.

His decision not to execute Hu Qingping was meaningless and only demonstrated his incompetent rage.

Soul Saints are already high-ranking among evil soul masters, and Hu Qingping is somewhat special, being one of those blessed by the Abyss, and thus connected to the Holy Emperor's scheme.

That madman who terrified even his mother.

"You are responsible for luring that 'shaving victim' into corruption, and at the same time, find out why the Evil Fire Phoenix Ma Xiaotao's martial soul was purified," the sect leader decided in a moment.

Hu Qingping breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that the cult leader did not hold her accountable, but she was stunned when she heard her 'punishment'.

What kind of move is this?

Su Ming, who was spying on the auction house, was also shocked. Upon investigation, he discovered that the evil spirit master was trying to harm him.

"What? You don't want to?" The Holy Spirit Cult leader sneered, "This is easy for you, isn't it, you Abyssal Succubus?"

He felt disgusted. This woman had probably had countless partners before; she was filthy, and every boyfriend she had had died a gruesome death, completely drained.

Of course, young boys generally can't resist the allure of such charming older women.

As far as he knew, the boy with the Qiongqi bloodline was only twelve years old, and it would be easy for him to fall into depravity under the seductive methods of a succubus.

"You'd better infiltrate the Mingxuan Chamber of Commerce and find an opportunity to contact him. A Soul Master who is close to the extreme of darkness has the potential to reach the realm of Limit Douluo once he falls into depravity," said the leader of the Holy Spirit Cult.

Hu Qingping was stunned; this nested identity left her bewildered.

Chapter 173 Snow Empress Embryo

Su Ming withdrew his consciousness; maintaining the descent state for an extended period had severely depleted his mental strength.

Since nothing serious happened, I stopped spying.

He knew everything about the Holy Spirit Cult; Hu Qingping's role was simply to keep watch so that he wouldn't be unaware of their plots against him.

As for her betrayal, there was nothing that could be done; the Holy Spirit Cult would find out the details sooner or later.

Let's let it go this time.

The auction continued, and Huo Yuhao began his freebie-stealing journey, raising his hand to report that only the ultimate ice martial soul could absorb the Ice Jade Scorpion Soul Bone. With no other choice, the ten-thousand-year-old Ice Jade Scorpion Soul Bone was auctioned off by the Star Luo Royal Family as the champion reward of the Soul Battle Tournament.

The last item up for auction caught Su Ming's attention.

Killing a 100,000-year-old soul beast embryo can yield a 100,000-year-old soul bone, a 100,000-year-old soul ring, or even an ice-attribute martial soul.

Su Ming knew exactly what it was: the Snow Emperor, the leader of the three great ferocious beasts of the polar regions.

"It's a pity, it's too expensive. I can't even afford to save the beasts," Su Ming sighed. Although the Mingxuan Chamber of Commerce is wealthy, it still can't compare to the country.

They saw the embryo of a 100,000-year-old soul beast.

The expressions on everyone's faces varied. Huo Yuhao seemed somewhat anxious. He hesitated for a moment, then sighed deeply.

Even though he desperately wanted to save Xue Di, he couldn't ask the academy for too much.

Gu Yuena's expression turned much colder. She had also figured out who the 100,000-year-old embryo was, especially when she heard that the human soul master had been despicable for taking advantage of the Snow Empress's weakest moment during her transformation.

Anger had been burning within him for some time.

The silver-haired girl glanced at Su Ming, who was leisurely sipping his tea, and cursed inwardly, 'Despicable.'

Su Ming was completely confused. What does this have to do with me?

The girl decisively placed her bid during the auction. As the master of soul beasts, the Silver Dragon King, even though he had a cold relationship with the polar soul beast circle, would never sit idly by and watch his noble beast fall into human hands.

"Two ten-thousand-year-old soul bones!" This bid shocked everyone inside the auction house. Who was so wealthy as to bid in the form of soul bones?

Inside the private room, everyone was stunned by this extravagance.

Wang Yan said nervously, "Gu Yuena, you're not lying, are you? This is no joke."

The silver-haired girl glanced at Wang Yan and said, "My family is poor, all we have left is our soul bone."

This is incredible; everyone is having a heart attack.

The Starlight Auction House was also in an uproar, and even sent people over to inquire.

The auctioneer was stunned when Gu Yuena pulled out seven or eight soul bones from her spatial soul tool.

The auction, which had been interrupted, resumed, and Gu Yuena added soul bones one by one, almost breaking through ten.

Su Ming decisively grabbed the silver-haired girl and whispered in her ear, "Little brat, if you want to leave this auction house alive, listen to my advice and don't follow me any further."

Gu Yuena's pretty face was tickled by the boy's fresh breath. She glared at Su Ming and said coldly with disdain, "Go away and don't bother me."

Su Ming sighed, "I'm going crazy, I'm going crazy." He couldn't just stand by and watch the beautiful girl be assassinated. What if Di Tian got angry and unleashed an endless beast tide in retaliation?

"Don't worry, at worst we can let someone else take the picture, then we'll rob them while we're masked." Su Ming's face was ruthless, and he made a knife-like gesture with his hand, slashing it sharply.

Gu Yuena was stunned. She looked at Su Ming with a strange expression, as if to say, 'I didn't expect you to be this kind of person.'

However, she obeyed and stopped. The girl also felt that if she continued, she would meet with misfortune. She still had a great cause to complete and could not die a miserable death.

"Wait a minute." The silver-haired girl thought for a moment, then looked at Su Ming suspiciously and said, "Why are you so eager?"

"Could it be..." Her eyes widened, and she exclaimed in a trembling voice, "You bastard, you also want to seize the 100,000-year-old embryo?!"

She could also say it was to prevent the Snow Empress from being killed by humans, and to gain the favor of the Lord of the Arctic.

What is Su Ming's motivation?

There's only one truth: he also coveted the Snow Emperor's embryo.

Su Ming was at a loss for words. He couldn't very well say that he knew this 100,000-year-old embryo was the Snow Emperor, and that Elder Yi had a way to make the Snow Emperor embryo take shape and truly transform.

It can't be said that he's just after the Snow Emperor. This innate holy spirit, nurtured by heaven and earth, has extraordinary talent in the art of ice and snow. If he were recruited into the organization, he would definitely become a big shot in the soul technique system.

"Haha, after all, there's a chance to get a 'brand new' martial soul. When the time comes, you can have the soul bone, and I can have the soul ring and the origin," Su Ming said with an awkward laugh.

Gu Yuena's face instantly turned cold. She stared directly at Su Ming and said, "You are just like those people, treating soul beasts as mere tools."

Su Ming shrugged, too lazy to argue.

Gu Yuena stopped bidding, and time passed slowly. In the end, the Snow Emperor's embryo was bought by the Mingde Hall of the Sun Moon Empire for more than 100 million gold coins.

Su Ming estimated that the Sun Moon Empire would have to pay other prices in private.

The girl left in silence, seemingly determined to rob someone on the way, and more importantly, to go it alone, excluding Su Ming. She didn't trust any human.

Su Ming glanced at Gu Yuena and whispered as he passed by her, "You'd better be careful. The Sun Moon Empire has at least one Soul Saint escorting you, with your current strength..."

He clicked his tongue and shook his head.

"None of your business," Gu Yuena sneered, and walked to the other side.

"I'm just reminding you, you have a competition tomorrow, so don't stay up too late." Su Ming yawned and went back to sleep.

Time passed, and the night grew deeper.

A young woman dressed in black appeared on the top floor of the Starlight Hotel. Her tight clothes outlined her beautiful and captivating curves, and her figure was shapely and petite.

Su Ming glanced leisurely out the window, sighed softly, turned around and found a set of black clothes. He stretched his muscles and increased his height by ten centimeters. At the same time, his skull flashed, distorting the surrounding environment. To others, his figure became blurred.

Nightmare Illusion.

Distorting people's perception of the world through sight, hearing, taste, and other senses.

Having made full preparations, Su Ming concealed his presence using [Disguise] and quietly followed.

"He said he didn't care, but he followed her because he was afraid something would happen to her. Is this what you call 'tsundere'? I love it." Old Yi jokingly thought to himself.

Su Ming's expression remained unchanged as he said, "I just want to be a fisherman."

The two of them, one in front and one behind, quickly followed the trail of the Sun and Moon Empire's procession into the night.

Long before the auction ended, the people from the Sun Moon Empire had already fled overnight with their buckets.

Su Ming did not leave any trace on the Snow Emperor's embryo, which was not his specialty, but he was not worried at all. Gu Yuena would definitely have a way to locate the Snow Emperor's embryo.

You can't go wrong by following her.

As the two continued their journey, they even encountered several secret battlefields, which appeared to be fierce battles between the people of the Sun Moon Empire and certain other forces.

Su Ming thought they were fighting over the Snow Emperor's embryo, but he saw Gu Yuena move quickly around the battlefield without the slightest hesitation.

The boy decided to believe Gu Yuena.

By this time, they had already traveled more than ten kilometers outside of Xingluo City, and the two moved swiftly.

On a desolate path, a convoy slowly moved along, each cart carrying grain, seemingly just ordinary merchants. A dozen or so men wore simple clothes and wore honest smiles, chatting among themselves about crude jokes.

Su Ming sensed it and found that most of them did not have soul power, only a few had soul power, but the strongest were only Soul Masters.

There's nothing suspicious about it; the personnel arrangement is very reasonable.

Thinking about it, someone with such cultivation level couldn't possibly be from the Sun Moon Empire.

Su Ming was completely baffled.

The night was dark.
