Douluo Continent: The Holy Evil Emperor

Looking at the remaining 'defeated' members of the main team besides Ye Qing, Xuanzi swallowed hard, his expression dejected as he murmured, "It's all my fault, it's all my fault, if it weren't for me..."

Especially Xixi's unseeing, mutilated body, it felt like thorns dipped in chili water were whipping his penis.

It hurts, it hurts too much!

"Alright, everyone, don't blame Elder Xuan anymore. It's our own fault. We were too careless," Dai Yueheng said weakly, clutching his chest.

Lying on the ground, Chen Zifeng, whose eyes had long since lost their light, clenched his powerless hands into fists upon hearing Dai Yueheng's words, and a strong resentment appeared in his empty eyes.

So you think you're so good at talking?

You are not the one with a broken leg, you are not the one whose essence was severely damaged, you are not the one who died without a complete corpse, so what gives you the right to say such a thing?

Gongyang Mo also fell silent.

He knew in his heart that if Ye Qing hadn't arrived in time and decisively started treating him, even if he hadn't died here, he would have been crippled after surviving.

With Ye Qing's treatment, although I may need to recuperate for a long time, I still have a chance to make a full recovery.

But Xixi...

Her mutilated body still lay there quietly, her eyes, which had completely lost their light, no longer bright and sharp, but only filled with endless emptiness.

Even more coincidentally, the spot where she lay was precisely where she was watching Xuanzi, her slightly parted lips still dripping blood, as if asking:

"You could have saved us..."

Why not give it your all?

Xuanzi could no longer hold on. He collapsed to his knees, tearing at his hair with both hands, letting out a painful growl.

No one spoke; they simply watched Xuanzi's madness with complicated expressions.

Zhang Lexuan and Han Ruoruo, in particular, had witnessed how Xuanzi courted disaster, first pinning Ye Qing and themselves, who were capable of turning the tide, to the audience seats.

Then, feeling bored, he asked Ye Qing to grill meat for him and drink alcohol.

Those who entered the cave felt a pang of pity upon seeing Xuanzi's pained and self-reproachful state, but Zhang Lexuan and Han Ruoruo felt none of it, because it was all his own doing.

Ye Qing wanted to laugh even more, his face contorted into a bizarre expression.

He forced a smile, his expression complicated, and came to Xuanzi's side with a sigh: "Elder Xuan, things have come to this, so don't blame yourself. Let's eat first... oh no, let's send Chen Zifeng and Gongyang Mo back to the academy for treatment first."

"Although I have healing soul skills, I can only treat minor injuries. In an emergency like this, Elder Zhuang is definitely more suitable than me. If you are so self-blaming, then you should not be wallowing in self-pity here, but should think of ways to help Chen Zifeng and Gongyang Mo recover their health."

"And Xixi... her family should also be given an explanation."

Xuanzi stopped tearing at his hair, slowly stood up from the ground, looked around at everyone present, and nodded with a heavy expression.

"Ye Qing, you're right. I shouldn't be wallowing in self-pity here. I still have things to do!" He looked at Ye Qing, his expression turning serious, his eyes filled with a hint of pleading.

"This mistake is entirely my fault, and I will apologize to Elder Mu. The most urgent matter now is the upcoming Soul Battle Tournament. I entrust this tournament to you; you must uphold the honor of the academy!"

Without giving Ye Qing a chance to speak, he swept up Chen Zifeng, Gongyang Mo, and Xixi's corpses with a wave of his sleeve, and they soared into the air, transforming into a streak of earthy yellow light that swept towards the horizon in the blink of an eye.

As for Ma Xiaotao, Ling Luochen, and Dai Yueheng, their injuries were not serious. In addition, Ye Qing's treatment was very timely, and the three of them would be fully recovered in ten days at most, and would be able to fight again in a week.

This situation is much better than in the original story.

Ye Qing opened her mouth, but didn't say anything. However, there was something in her eyes that was... hard to explain.

When he actually saw Xuanzi display this attitude of 'the competition is more important than the students' lives,' he couldn't help but feel a little disgusted.

And...disgust.

Chapter 186 Dai Hao: The Ultimate Evil Soul Masters are attacking?

Since Xuanzi had already left, Ye Qing naturally didn't intend to stay any longer and immediately prepared to take the group of unlucky kids away with Zhang Lexuan and the others.

But at this moment, Huo Yuhao grabbed Ye Qing and said with a pleading look, "Senior Ye, although I know it's presumptuous of me to say this, could you please help me find my classmate who was taken away?"

Only after Huo Yuhao mentioned it did Ye Qing remember about Wang Dong.

The main reason was that Xuanzi's performance was really hard to keep up with, and the other people were acting like Renji NPCs. The scene was too exciting, and Ye Qing lost control of his expression for a while.

In addition, Wang Dong has the advantage of having a father who died from diabetes, making him safer than Ye Qing himself. There's no need to worry about him at all, so Ye Qing unconsciously ignored the fact that he was taken away.

"I can help you look, but let's go to the Northwest Army Group first and get you settled in. I'll bring Le Xuan and Sister Ruoruo with me then," Ye Qing said, patting Huo Yuhao on the shoulder.

"Don't worry, I'll take care of Wang Dong." (A double entendre.)

"Thank you, Senior Ye!" Huo Yuhao said with gratitude.

After giving Huo Yuhao a deep look, Ye Qing, along with Zhang Lexuan and Han Ruoruo, sent the group of unlucky kids back to the Northwest Army Group.

When Dai Yueheng saw Dai Hao again, his face, which had been almost deathly pale, suddenly turned as red as a monkey's bottom, and he was filled with shame and embarrassment.

Losing to a Soul King is one thing, since he couldn't beat Ye Qing when Ye Qing was a Soul King, and there are differences between Soul Kings. But the Soul King he lost to was not only a wild evil Soul Master with terrible Soul Ring combinations, but he also had a bunch of teammates around him.

Even so, they were almost wiped out by the other side.

Especially since he lost right under his father's nose, and in a place like the Northwest Army Group, his defeat could very well lead to rumors within the Northwest Army Group that Dai Hao was a worthless son and a scoundrel.

(It's okay, Dai Hao still has a mouse.)

(Huo Yuhao: Squeak!)

But Dai Hao didn't know that!

Seeing his son and his teammates covered in dust and dirt, with several of them bearing injuries, Dai Hao was so frightened that he almost thought that the evil soul master Limit Douluo had attacked the Mingdou Mountains.

After all, with Xuanzi, a level 98 expert, there seems to be no other possibility that Dai Yueheng and his group could be in such a sorry state, except that the leader of the Death Hand Bandit Gang is a Limit Douluo.

But then I thought it was impossible. If he really was an evil soul master, then Dai Yueheng should have sent his teammates and Xuanzi with him.

There's no way we can come back.

After Dai Yaoheng explained, Dai Hao learned what had happened and was speechless for a moment.

Ye Qing didn't care what Dai Hao thought. After settling Ma Xiaotao and the others, he took Zhang Lexuan and Han Ruoruo and left the military camp, flying in the sky to search for the unlucky Wang Dong.

"Qing, how should we search?" Zhang Lexuan asked Ye Qing as they returned to the mountain peak where the Death Hand bandits were based.

Han Ruoruo also turned her gaze over.

"What are you two thinking?" Ye Qing asked in return.

“Based on what you saw earlier, the Grim Reaper led Wang Dong into a secret passage. Since it’s a secret passage, it can’t be too far away. The exit of the passage is most likely in the nearby mountains,” Zhang Lexuan analyzed.

Han Ruoruo frowned: "The only thing I'm not sure about is where he is now. After all, he can't stay in the vicinity forever waiting for us to catch him."

"Let's search the surrounding area first and see if we can find the exit of the secret passage. Then, following the direction of the secret passage, let's deduce the possible escape route of the Grim Reaper," Zhang Lexuan suggested.

"Okay." Han Ruoruo nodded.

“Then let’s do it the way you say, Le Xuan,” Ye Qing naturally had no objections.

According to Ye Qing's guess, the Grim Reaper is most likely gone now. After successfully escaping, he would not leave Wang Dong behind as a burden, and would most likely want to get rid of this troublesome person.

Regardless of his method of dealing with Wang Dong, as long as he doesn't drown him in a pig cage and then run away, it will definitely trigger the divine consciousness of the one who died from diabetes, and then be scattered to ashes by the power of the God King.

Wang Dong is most likely still in the vicinity.

After the three split up, Ye Qing immediately released his martial spirit and activated the Speedster Domain. Centered on the mountain where the Death Hand Bandit Gang was located, he began to traverse rapidly, using the circular spiral trajectory of a mosquito coil to quickly search every place.

Seeing this, Zhang Lexuan and Han Ruoruo both stopped and exchanged a helpless glance.

Looking at the golden streaks of light constantly flashing before her eyes, Han Ruoruo said in a low voice, "Le Xuan, your little man is really amazing. He's made us both useless now."

"He could have handled it all by himself, so why did he bring both of us along?"

But what Han Ruoruo really wanted to say wasn't why she brought the two of them along, but why she brought her along. If she only brought Zhang Lexuan, it could be considered a little game between couples, but why bring her along as well?

Han Ruoruo: Am I also part of your play?

Zhang Lexuan was speechless.

After a long while, she guessed, "Maybe he didn't ask us to help find people, but rather wanted to prevent the Grim Reaper from having any backup plans. After all, no matter how powerful Qing is, he's only one person and can't be in two places at once."

"Ruoruo, you understand the principle that there is strength in numbers."

But no sooner had Zhang Lexuan finished speaking than Ye Qing returned to them, holding the unfortunate Wang Dong in his arms like a princess.

For some reason, Wang Dong was unconscious, but he had no injuries.

"You found it already?" Han Ruoruo's eyes widened.

Ye Qing nodded.

While Zhang Lexuan and Han Ruoruo were chatting, Ye Qing also found Wang Dong. As expected, Princess Tang was unharmed, with twelve ashen and hideous corpses lying around her, and a pool of grayish-white powder not far in front of her.

Seeing this, Ye Qing knew he hadn't guessed wrong. The Grim Reaper had escaped Xuanzi's clutches and Electrolux's clutches, but still crashed headfirst into Tang San's harpoon.

The dust was all scattered.

As for why Wang Dong fell into a coma, he didn't know, but according to his guess, it was most likely a side effect of the God King's divine consciousness being activated. It couldn't have been that he was asleep, could it?

He didn't wake up even though Ye Qing picked him up and ran away with such a loud noise. He must have been sleeping so soundly that he didn't notice.

"He looked like this when I found him. He probably used some secret technique to kill the Grim Reaper, and then he was so weak that he fainted," Ye Qing said.

"Anyway, let's go back first."
