"Kid! How dare you?!"
At the moment the Duchess passed away, several elder clansmen roared in unison. The battle ended too quickly, giving them no time to react. At this moment, they no longer cared about the two people's identities or strength; they were determined to capture them first.
As for everyone inside the White Tiger Dukes Mansion, they were also sealed off by the White Tiger Dukes Mansion's Soul Masters, making it difficult for even a fly to escape.
It was only because of their concerns that they didn't make a move.
Boom—
Several tiger claws struck horizontally, exploding through the air! Instantly, all paths in every direction were blocked, leaving no escape.
"Seniors, since you are all so old, you should just stay put and enjoy your retirement. Don't move rashly, lest you break your old bones."
Chen Junting stood proudly and swung his sword.
Under the heavy, unsharpened sword, the Seven Kill Sword seemed to carry immense power as it slashed down, easily breaking through a Soul Douluo's attack. Then, with a gentle flick of the Seven Kill Sword, a Soul Saint beside him was directly sent flying, crashing into a third person.
Seeing this, the remaining elder clansmen immediately realized something was wrong.
They immediately switched from close combat to long-range attacks. At the same time, the two great amplification Soul Skills exclusive to the White Tiger Martial Soul, "White Tiger Vajra Transformation" and "White Tiger Demonic God Transformation," were activated, and glowing projectiles shot towards Chen Junting.
However, "Hum—"
The longsword hummed softly, and ten thousand swords materialized in the void.
In just a few breaths, the White Tiger Blazing Light Wave was sliced open by the soul power longswords. Then, ten thousand swords formed a cage, enveloping the elder clansmen. Even if some soul power longswords were shattered and dissipated into light in the air, they were continuously replenished, making it difficult for the elders to cope for a time.
At the same time, the array patterns under Chen Junting's feet shone brightly.
From the very start, he had been preparing for this.
The next second, a hazy mist enveloped the entire area. Seeing this, the elder clansmen immediately sealed their mouths and noses with soul power.
But this mist was the substantive manifestation of this array Formation in the spiritual aspect; how could merely sealing mouths and noses stop it?
As expected, the elder clansmen fell into an illusion.
At this point, the other Soul Masters in the mansion could no longer hold back.
Countless soul rings instantly shone, and Soul Masters who had completed their Martial Soul possession fiercely attacked in Chen Junting's direction. Some leaped down from the eaves, while others charged from corners...
Among the crowd, there were many Soul Emperors and Soul Kings. However, each of them was very ordinary in every aspect, such as spiritual power, will, or the quality of their martial souls.
And so...
"Hmm—"
With a glance, a red light flashed.
Domain, unfold!
The killing intent, as if substantial, was precisely controlled by Chen Junting, like small swords piercing into the brains of the attacking Soul Masters. In an instant, those Soul Masters felt a sudden sharp pain in their brains, and then completely fell into a blank state.
Bang bang bang...
One by one, like dumplings being dropped, they either fell from mid-air or stumbled and collapsed onto the ground, unable to get up.
Looking at the front courtyard where there was no one else around, Chen Junting couldn't help but shake his head. He walked up to the elder clansmen who were trapped in the illusion, hit them a few times, and they completely fell unconscious.
With a wave of his hand, array pattern Soul Guidance pillars rose from the ground.
Then, with another backhand wave, they fell towards the outside of the mansion.
Immediately after, a purple barrier enveloped the entire White Tiger Dukes Mansion. Without Title Douluo level strength, those inside couldn't get out, and those outside couldn't get in.
"Big Brother Junting."
Chen Junting turned around and saw Huo Yuhao walking up to him. He could clearly feel that after Huo Yuhao killed the Duchess, his overwhelming hatred had dissipated by more than half.
Chen Junting didn't say much about this.
He just asked, "Do you want to continue?"
"Yes."
Huo Yuhao's eyes were filled with anger as he stared intently at the back of the White Tiger Dukes Mansion, as if seeing something through the buildings.
"For my Mother's death, the Duchess and Dai Huabin are the culprits, and those evil servants were accomplices! I won't forget any of their faces, I will use their lives to mourn my Mother!"
"Then go."
Chen Junting nodded, "Kill until your thoughts are clear, kill until your mind is smooth. Let go of everything, we will help you bear the consequences."
Thus, Huo Yuhao stepped through the water splashes and walked towards the back of the courtyard. The chill and killing intent emanating from his body, even though they had been somewhat restrained and weakened, still made it difficult for ordinary people to approach within three feet.
Before long, sounds of crying and angry shouts came from the back of the White Tiger Dukes Mansion, but they completely disappeared within a few seconds.
Clearly, Huo Yuhao killed those evil servants like chickens. In just a moment, he walked out from the back carrying the heads of several evil servants, covered in blood, like an Asura walking out of Hell.
He wanted to use the heads of these people to mourn his Mother.
As for the others, he didn't hurt them at all.
After all, every wrong has its source, and every debt has its owner.
In fact, there were also people in the Duke's Mansion who were relatively good to him and his Mother when he was young, like the second madam of the Duke's Mansion. Although she was also oppressed by the Duchess Xu, she was still a person of status and was much better off than him and his Mother. So, in the past, she also took care of him and his Mother quite a bit.
It's just that now...
This appearance, like a malevolent ghost, was really not suitable for meeting people.
"They should be back by now."
Chen Junting looked at Huo Yuhao and suddenly spoke, "Yuhao, are you still planning to wait? Dai Hao is in the Star Luo Imperial Palace."
Hearing this, Huo Yuhao raised his head and asked.
"Will it cause big trouble for the Sect?"
Hearing this, Chen Junting felt a bit amused.
"The trouble you've caused is already significant."
However, having said that, he also understood Huo Yuhao's meaning. That is, leaving now without meeting is different from confronting them face-to-face later. After all, without official authentication, someone could always impersonate them and act in their name.
To put it plainly, everyone knows it well, but they can all pretend to be ignorant, as the final veil hasn't been lifted anyway.
But if it's face-to-face, then it's different.
In other words, Huo Yuhao would be voluntarily admitting to this matter. This would make it impossible for the informed powers to pretend ignorance, even if they wanted to.
Someone needs to take responsibility!
"Do it according to your own heart's desire."
Chen Junting said, "I've also said that the Sect Leader and the others have known about this for a long time. This trip south to Star Luo is precisely for you to complete your revenge. Although the Sect won't act to kill people for you, you don't need to think too much about other matters."
"I understand! Then I'll wait for him!"
Huo Yuhao looked towards the direction of Star Luo City and said hatefully, "I'll wait for him to come back! I want him to kneel and repent before my Mother's grave!"
...
Inside the Star Luo Imperial Palace.
"What!?"
The person responsible for reporting the news from the White Tiger Dukes Mansion had already arrived at the Imperial Palace and informed White Tiger Duke Dai Hao, Star Luo Emperor Xu Jiawei, and the others present about everything that happened in the mansion.
The first one who couldn't hold back was Dai Yueheng.
"Yueheng!"
Dai Hao roared angrily, then apologized to Xu Jiawei.
"Please, Your Majesty, forgive this son for his impropriety before the temple."
Of course, it wasn't that Dai Hao wasn't worried. It was just that the ones who trespassed into the White Tiger Dukes Mansion were only two youths; they didn't have this level of strength.
"There's no need for that, this is only natural."
Xu Jiawei waved his hand indifferently, but his expression was also exceptionally grim. Who could it be, who dared to break into the White Tiger Dukes Mansion and kill someone, and kill the Duchess, his Imperial Sister at that!
Could this be a provocation against the Star Luo Empire?!
As for the so-called revenge...
Xu Jiawei, as the Emperor, didn't care about these things.
Revenge is common, but there has never been such a bold person!
However, when that person revealed the names of the two people who attacked the White Tiger Dukes Mansion, the entire hall instantly fell silent.
For a moment, Dai Yueheng and Princess Xu Jiujiu widened their eyes even further.
"What!?" x2
At this point, Xu Jiawei and Dai Hao also immediately realized the seriousness of the matter. And more importantly, the two people who attacked the White Tiger Dukes Mansion might actually have this strength.
At this moment, everyone could no longer hold back.
Xu Jiawei even called for Heavenly Fiend Douluo Huang Jinxu, telling him to quickly go to the White Tiger Dukes Mansion with Dai Hao to stop the two people.
"Yes!"
