Chapter 145: Evil Soul Master: How Fate Favors Me

The platform was a mess, the panicked crowd scattering in flight, soul beasts huddled in the corner trembling. Sunlight still filtered through the shattered dome, sprinkling down, yet it could no longer illuminate that harmonious scene.

Li Yucheng's face was pale, his fists clenched until they creaked: "This is bad."

Must contact the Spirit Pagoda immediately!

And in a place he hadn't noticed, a wisp of gray mist and a figure quietly disappeared.

……

A bone-piercing cold wind sliced across the skin like a knife; the youth seemed to instinctively open his eyelids, pupils contracting sharply — beneath him was actually a ten-thousand-zhang abyss, ethereal cloud wisps winding around his feet like ghosts, a biting airflow tearing at his suspended body.

He was wrapped in a narrow blood-colored shield, unable to move.

And opposite him, in another blood-colored shield, Huo Yuhao and Gu Yue Na were also trapped inside.

Huo Yuhao's brows locked tight, "suddenly" waking from unconsciousness, gray mist hazy in his eyes, quickly restrained. The first thing he saw was Gu Yue Na beside him, her body lying across his, palm tightly gripping his collar, face pale, long lashes lowered, trembling slightly in the cold wind, as if she would wake at any moment.

Just then, Gu Yue Na's brows lightly furrowed, eyelids struggling a few times, finally slowly opening. Those purple crystal-like eyes held a trace of bewilderment; seeing that Evil Soul Master, it turned to sudden realization, brows locking tight.

Huo Yuhao: "……"

How to put it, the acting was great?

Normally you wouldn't act past me, right?

"You woke up quite fast."

An icy, eerie voice suddenly rang out, that voice neither male nor female, carrying a spine-chilling sense of distortion, as if countless tiny ants were crawling on the eardrums, illusions seeming to appear in the eyes.

The clear-cold youth hurriedly closed his eyes, not making a sound; Huo Yuhao and the other also made no sound, merely looking at the Evil Soul Master with vigilant expressions.

Just then, a strong sense of weightlessness suddenly struck; the surrounding clouds and mist swept past like sharp blades, the earth rushing toward them at a terrifying speed.

The suffocating sensation from the extreme-speed descent made the blood seem to freeze; just when they were only a hundred meters from the ground —

"Bang!" An invisible giant force suddenly yanked the three of them hard. A sensation of internal organs being squeezed out of place surged in their chests; before they could recover, their feet had already stomped heavily on solid ground, knees bending uncontrollably from the impact force.

Gu Yue Na staggered to steady her figure, a trace of cold light flashing in her purple eyes, face pale.

Huo Yuhao supported her shoulder, his gaze incomparably "solemn" as he looked at that Evil Soul Master.

This Evil Soul Master's whole body was shrouded in impenetrable grayness —

A set of gray tight-fitting outfit seemed fused with the shadows, even the face completely concealed by a specially made hood, only revealing a pair of spine-chilling eyes. In those gray-hazy eyes, blood-red pupils were like two drops of congealed fresh blood, emitting a weird glow in the dim light.

Blood Eyes Martial Soul, and a Super Douluo at that……

He seemed to have some impression.

The Evil Soul Master who originally attacked the Divine Craftsman?

This time switched to attacking the next Divine Craftsman?

The Blood-Eyed Evil Soul Master looked at the three, "One by one, psychological quality not bad, not disgracing your talents."

Facing her, no fear shown, indeed not bad, but the due tension and worry also not a little less.

This is also only to be expected, after all the strength gap is placed right there.

If not nervous, that would be the problem instead.

"Elder, what business do you have capturing us?"

The youth at the side struggled to stand, couldn't help but ask:

"We weaklings probably don't have the qualification to trouble you to act, right?"

"Weaklings? Young Genius Ranking tenth place — Yuan En Yehui, fifth place — Gu Yue Na, first place — Huo Yuhao."

The Evil Soul Master coldly glanced at them, a frigid voice ringing in the three's ears.

"You aren't strong now, but the future? At this age, one high-rank Soul Elder, one Soul Ancestor, one Soul King…… the Federation has produced more and more geniuses these years. But conversely, kill you, and the Federation will have a few less peak powerhouses in the future, strangle the future of the major powers, why not do it?"

Yuan En Yehui's brows slightly furrowed, "If you really want to kill us, no need to bring us here to make a move."

The Evil Soul Master glanced at Yuan En Yehui, didn't continue the conversation, turned to look at Huo Yuhao and Gu Yue Na, "The Spirit Pagoda's protection of those Evil Martial Soul holders is very neat, yet overlooked you proud sons of your own factions."

"However, geniuses like you, lacking protectors at your side is one thing, but your teachers didn't leave you any other means?"

Huo Yuhao glanced at Yuan En Yehui's direction, took a deep breath, said: "Since we already have self-protection power, can't rely on teachers for everything. Who could have thought, today we would encounter Elder?"

"Five-ring Soul King, plus Battle Armor…… indeed has some self-protection power."

The Evil Soul Master's blood eyes slightly narrowed, like a venomous snake locking onto prey, tightly fixing on Huo Yuhao's eyes. The latter's words carrying a few parts mockery not only didn't enrage her, but made the curve of her mouth corner even more distorted.

When she grabbed Huo Yuhao just now, that fleeting glance of gray mist from the latter still lingered in her mind — so pure, so sweet a death aura, just recalling it made her whole body tremble with soul mental terror, the depths of her bone marrow rising with a numbing pleasure.

A casual move, yet able to capture such a surprise…… fate favors her so much!

Huo Yuhao seeing this, eyes flashed.

Attention completely placed on him now, looks like the Undead Qi he previously invoked had very significant effect.

"Rest here for now, don't think of playing any tricks."

The Evil Soul Master coldly said, "If someone pursues, the first to die will be you. And if you can pass this time safely, you might still be able to return alive."

Voice just fell, her figure quietly disappeared from the original place.

Huo Yuhao and Gu Yue Na gazed at each other, tacit understanding, neither spoke.

Yuan En Yehui silent for a moment, slowly walked to their side, gaze flowing between the two, "Sorry, dragging you two into this, she should be targeting me. Afterwards if there's a chance, I'll try to draw away her attention, you two escape quickly."

Huo Yuhao perceived the Evil Soul Master's aura had temporarily left his surround, looked at "Yuan En Yehui".

Yuan En Yehui, gender female, due to martial soul reasons sometimes cross-dresses as male. Martial soul is Titan Giant Ape, Fallen Angel, Evil Martial Soul holder, and because Fallen Angel at nine rings can connect to the Mo Wei Mian, among Evil Martial Soul potentials also the most dangerous type……

Thinking here, Huo Yuhao suddenly revealed a trace of smile, transmitted via sound:

"No relation, with us attracting attention, she never even noticed His Excellency, thinking we want to leave, should be not difficult."
