Chapter 248: Targeted, Yu Xiao Gang in Danger!
"Bastards!!"
After eagerly grabbing the storage soul tool handed over by Yu Xiao Gang, the thin spear soul master quickly realized that there was no food inside it. Instead, it was filled with books. His eyes immediately turned red, and in a fit of rage, he slapped Yu Xiao Gang across the face.
This damn pretty boy!
Why didn't he put food in the storage soul tool when entering the City of Slaughter? Instead, it was filled with useless books—books that could only be used for wiping his ass!
Damn!!
Yu Xiao Gang, who was slapped across the face, was left dazed, his head buzzing. However, he could only grit his teeth and endure.
Even his disciple, Tang San, couldn't defeat these five fallen soul masters, so as a weakling himself, how could he dare to resist? Doing so would be seeking death!
Although the five fallen soul masters were furious for not finding food in Yu Xiao Gang's storage soul tool, they still decided to keep it for themselves.
Then came the bloodletting.
Anyone who survived in the City of Slaughter was bound to be a ruthless villain.
For the Extreme Evil Five, who had finally found two newbies—Tang San and Yu Xiao Gang—they naturally planned to squeeze every bit of value out of them.
First, the storage soul tool and its contents. Second, the blood in Tang San and Yu Xiao Gang's bodies.
Although the outer district of the City of Slaughter was not as chaotic as the inner district, it still followed certain rules, such as no killing.
However, living in the outer district required a price to be paid. Every month, one had to contribute two cups of Bloody Marys to the City of Slaughter.
Of course, contributing two cups of Bloody Marys each month not only allowed one to stay in the outer district, but also exempted one from the mandatory yearly participation in the Hellish Slaughter Arena.
However, even for soul masters, submitting two cups of Bloody Marys a month with the cups provided by the City of Slaughter would weaken them greatly.
Therefore, fallen soul masters who were strong enough would steal blood from weaker fallen soul masters, using their blood as Bloody Marys to submit to the City of Slaughter.
There was a problem with this, however.
Since there was a rule in the outer district prohibiting murder, many stronger fallen soul masters would hesitate to steal blood from the weaker ones.
It would be fine if the weak soul masters voluntarily offered their blood, but if a stronger fallen soul master forcibly took the blood of a weaker one, and the weak one died, the one who drew the blood would also be punished by the law enforcement team.
So, for the Extreme Evil Five, finding two fresh new souls like Tang San and Yu Xiao Gang was a godsend.
Not only had they discovered two fat sheep, but it also meant that their Bloody Mary contribution for the month was taken care of!
After retrieving five water bags from Tang San's storage soul tool, the Extreme Evil Five eagerly drank the contents. Then, with greedy grins on their faces, they pulled out knives, preparing to draw blood from Tang San to collect their monthly Bloody Mary quota.
However, upon seeing this, Yu Xiao Gang became frantic.
His disciple, Tang San, had already been badly injured from fighting these five fallen soul masters. If they drained even more of his blood, even if he didn't die now, his chances of survival would be slim.
"Wait!"
Just as the five fallen soul masters were about to unleash their claws on Tang San, Yu Xiao Gang urgently called out.
"Pretty boy, are you looking to die?!"
Upon hearing Yu Xiao Gang's voice, the leader of the five, the thin spear soul master, immediately glared at him with a fierce expression, causing Yu Xiao Gang to freeze. He could only force a smile and speak.
"Masters, my disciple has already been beaten to this state by you. If you drain any more of his blood, he will likely die."
"I don't know how much blood you plan to take from him, but if you can, take mine instead. I'm older than him, so you can take more from me!"
In an attempt to protect his disciple, Tang San, and to prove his theories, Yu Xiao Gang finally summoned up enough courage to speak up and offer his own blood to the five fallen soul masters.
Upon hearing Yu Xiao Gang's words, the five fallen soul masters exchanged glances.
Though their goal was to collect enough blood from Tang San and Yu Xiao Gang to meet their monthly Bloody Mary quota, the cups provided by the City of Slaughter were large enough to hold half a pound of blood, meaning they needed to collect five pounds of blood in total.
Draining one pound of blood from someone was already a challenge for them. They had a feeling that draining even just two pounds of blood from Tang San would cause significant harm to him. Maybe it wasn't worth starting with him.
If he died, they would have to pay for his death as well.
But as fallen soul masters, the members of the Extreme Evil Five weren't good people. Though Yu Xiao Gang's suggestion aligned with their interests, they couldn't help but feel uneasy without gaining a little extra benefit.
Looking at Yu Xiao Gang, who appeared resolute and composed in his scholar's attire, a unique aura surrounding him, the Blood Wolf Soul Master suddenly felt a spark of desire. He licked his lips hungrily.
As a man who had been in the City of Slaughter for over five years and had joined the Extreme Evil Five, he had not been with a woman during that time.
But the Blood Wolf, just like the Gale Magic Wolf, was known for its lustful nature, which also affected the Blood Wolf Soul Master.
The saying went, "Fifty years in prison, and a sow could become a beauty."
In the City of Slaughter, it was even more true.
Since there were practically no women, even though Yu Xiao Gang didn't appear much to be anything special at first glance, his neat appearance and unique aura caught the Blood Wolf Soul Master's attention. He saw him as the perfect "release" for his pent-up desires.
And with that kid around, there was no way Yu Xiao Gang would be able to resist!
Looking at Yu Xiao Gang, the Blood Wolf Soul Master grinned and said, "Hehe, pretty boy, it's not impossible for us to spare your disciple..."
Upon hearing the Blood Wolf Soul Master's words, the other four members of the Extreme Evil Five turned to him with puzzled looks, unsure of his intentions.
The Blood Wolf Soul Master smirked and whispered something to the other four soul masters, and their expressions instantly shifted.
They looked at Yu Xiao Gang with renewed interest, licking their lips, their eyes filled with greedy desire.
This pretty boy indeed looked quite good. He was clean and fair-skinned, and playing with him would probably not be much different from being with a woman...
