Chapter 430: Subjugating Feng Ling
As soon as she finished speaking, Feng Ling launched a swift attack on Nangong Wan and Ming Lei Douluo.
In her mind, Huo Yuhao's strength posed no threat to her.
Her top priority was to first suppress the more troublesome Nangong Wan and Ming Lei Douluo, then find an opportunity to capture Huo Yuhao.
Nangong Wan and Ming Lei Douluo weren't to be underestimated.
Although they were weaker than her, if they chose to burn their life force, even she would have to back off.
After all, if pushed to the limit, they could self detonate their soul cores, which would be incredibly dangerous even for a Rank 97 Super Douluo.
Soon, Nangong Wan and Ming Lei Douluo were forced into retreat under her relentless assault.
Above her Demonic Phoenix form, the purple sun once again shot out a beam of light, aiming directly at Huo Yuhao.
To avoid critically injuring him, Feng Ling deliberately held back, reducing the intensity of her attack.
Her goal was not to kill him, but to subdue him as quickly as possible.
Keeping Huo Yuhao alive was far more valuable to the Holy Spirit Cult than a dead one.
But if, at any point, a dead Huo Yuhao could bring greater benefits, she wouldn't hesitate to choose that path instead.
Nearby, Nangong Wan was still struggling against the Purple Sun's scorching energy.
Out of the corner of his eye, he saw the attack heading toward Huo Yuhao, and panic set in.
"Huo Ye, watch out!" Nangong Wan shouted.
It wasn't out of loyalty or because he had fallen under Huo Yuhao's charisma.
No he was terrified.
If Huo Yuhao accidentally died, what would happen to the soul core seal implanted in his body?
Would it detonate upon Huo Yuhao's death?
If so, he would die along with him.
So, his concern for Huo Yuhao was really just concern for himself.
At that moment, Huo Yuhao's eyes turned ghostly gray white.
A sacred yet deathly aura radiated from him.
He calmly raised his hand, reaching toward the descending beam of purple light.
Suddenly
Crack! Crack!
Dark spatial rifts tore open in midair, devouring the Purple Sun's energy completely.
Witnessing this unbelievable scene, all three evil soul masters were left utterly stunned.
Never before in history had a Soul Emperor been capable of wielding spatial power to such an extent.
Had they not seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn't have believed it.
Then, Huo Yuhao extended a single finger toward Feng Ling.
A radiant white light, imbued with holy purification energy, gathered at his fingertip before shooting forward
Striking directly onto Feng Ling's Demonic Phoenix form.
A piercing, earth shattering scream erupted from her.
A burning pain surged through her entire body, as the evil energy within her was rapidly dissolved.
She felt unbearable agony, forcing her to immediately withdraw from her Martial Soul True Body.
Her face turned pale, blood dripped from her mouth, and her breath grew weak.
She looked as if she was on the verge of death.
Even Nangong Wan and Ming Lei Douluo trembled involuntarily at the sight.
Huo Yuhao took a step forward, raising his hand again
This time, gathering spiritual power to imprint a soul core seal on Feng Ling.
"Oh, right, teacher, Feng Ling is still under Zhongli Wu's control. Can you remove that as well?" Huo Yuhao asked in his spiritual sea.
Feng Ling was Zhongli Wu's wife and did have genuine feelings for him.
However, just like Tang Ya, she was being controlled.
That was why her personality was so warped.
In the original story, under Zhongli Wu's influence, Feng Ling willingly burned her own soul and Martial Soul.
If Huo Yuhao tried to threaten her with death, it wouldn't work
Not unless she was freed from Zhongli Wu's control.
"Understood." Electrolux responded.
He quickly completed the soul core seal and erased Zhongli Wu's influence over Feng Ling.
However, he once again reminded Huo Yuhao
Not to reveal his existence to others.
Suddenly
Feng Ling clutched her head, breathing heavily.
Memories flooded into her mind.
Her face twisted in horror as she gasped:
"Zhongli Wu!"
Meanwhile, the gray white light faded from Huo Yuhao's eyes.
"Feng Ling, your soul core is now under my seal."
"With just a thought, I can detonate it instantly."
"So, for you, this isn't a difficult choice "
"Submission or death."
Feng Ling stared daggers at Huo Yuhao, gritting her teeth.
"Huo Yuhao, I submit."
"But I want Zhongli Wu dead."
"That bastard controlled me for years! If it weren't for his manipulation, I would have never fallen for him or become his wife!"
Huo Yuhao nodded.
"He will die. You have my word."
At that moment, Nangong Wan and Ming Lei Douluo flew over.
Both of them wore expressions of deep reverence.
They had risked their lives fighting Feng Ling
But Huo Yuhao had defeated her effortlessly.
This only confirmed what Long Aotian had said:
"I get the feeling you weren't even using your full strength."
Now, it was clear Long Aotian had been absolutely right.
"So he really wasn't using his full strength in the tournament…"
"That's terrifying. Even the Vice Cult Master isn't his match."
Nangong Wan gulped.
Then, he cupped his hands in flattery.
"Huo Ye, your talent is beyond comprehension! Even the Vice Cult Master was defeated by you. In my opinion, there's no Soul Saint stronger than you on the entire continent!"
"Indeed!" Ming Lei Douluo agreed.
"Huo Ye, you might just be the most talented soul master in Douluo's history. If that overhyped Tang San had been born in the same era as you, he would have been nothing but a joke!"
Divine Realm.
Tang San sat hidden inside his secretly built monitoring room.
A massive display screen floated before him.
To keep it running, he had to sacrifice some of his stored faith power.
On the screen, Elder Song led a group of people retreating from Mingdu under cover of night.
A sickly grin spread across Tang San's face.
"Perfect. Just as expected… They're heading west."
If, by some chance, the Sun Moon Empire proved incompetent or something went wrong, he was fully prepared to intervene.
He had to make sure they continued westward.
Because
In the western region of Mingdu, he had carefully arranged a little "surprise"
Qiankun Wenqing Valley.
Tang San firmly believed that if Shrek Academy's people didn't experience Qiankun Wenqing Valley, then their lives would be incomplete.
To him, a perfect life was one that passed through that valley.
"Besides, experiencing hardship only makes people stronger, doesn't it?"
"After all, how can one see a rainbow without first enduring the storm?"
Then, he frowned.
"But the biggest obstacle to my Qiankun Wenqing Valley plan… is Little Seven."
