Chapter 54: Kill without mercy! [Seeking monthly votes]
"Yuhao!"
The moment Huo Yuhao fell, Gu Yuena rushed to the altar, but was stopped by Chu Feng.
"Don't worry, wait a moment. The formation isn't completely stable yet!
Trust the Snow Empress. With her here, Yuhao will be fine!"
Gu Yuena's tears fell heavily. Huo Yuhao had just been seriously injured, and she didn't know if it was due to the Beast Taming Contract or his own injuries.
Gu Yuena felt as if her heart had shattered. At that moment, she felt so heartbroken that she could barely breathe!
As Chu Feng spoke, the Snow Empress poured the ultimate ice that Huo Yuhao had passed on into the altar.
A terrifying aura of prehistoric nature erupted from the altar, and a dazzling nine-colored light burst forth from above, covering the Soul Devouring Passage.
The formation, empowered by the nine-colored light, instantly sealed the Soul Devouring Passage tightly.
At this point, the Soul Devouring Passage finally fell completely silent, its heart-wrenching roar no longer emanating.
At that moment, observing the successfully reinforced seal formation, everyone present cheered:
"Great!"
"Hurray! We've finally succeeded in reinforcing the seal on this Soul Devouring Passage."
"It looks like even decades from now, this seal won't change!"
At this moment, the Snow Empress, situated at the center of the altar, slowly opened her azure eyes and walked towards the collapsed Huo Yuhao.
With a gentle tap of her jade finger on Huo Yuhao's forehead, a surge of pure, ultimate icy power instantly poured into his body.
As this shared ultimate icy energy flowed through him, Huo Yuhao felt a surge of warmth coursing through his limbs.
At that very moment, Huo Yuhao's long-held soul power instantly broke through level fifty!
Shortly after, Huo Yuhao opened his eyes as well. As he sat up, a graceful figure threw herself into his arms.
Gu Yuena's tears flooded his clothes like a flood.
Seeing this, though Xue Di's expression remained unchanged, her heart was already churning.
Seeing Huo Yuhao awake, everyone cast grateful glances at him.
It could be said that it was Huo Yuhao's persistence that had saved them from disaster today.
Meanwhile, Tianqing Douluo's eyes flickered as he stared intently at Huo Yuhao, his thoughts unfathomable.
He simply couldn't believe Huo Yuhao could truly control ten wiels of ice elemental spirit power from Titled Douluos.
Xue Di must have been a factor!
The thought of this filled Tianqing Douluo with resentment.
Today, he had been thoroughly outmatched by Huo Yuhao, and he feared he would always be outmatched by him.
Near the altar, the Titled Douluos rose and prepared to leave.
Suddenly, the Snow Empress's cold voice rang out, "Wait a moment."
The ten Titled Douluos' faces trembled, their memory reminiscent of the ice element's sudden outburst during Huo Yuhao's purification.
Wasn't that an accident?
Finally, the Snow Empress's azure eyes rested on a towering Titled Douluo.
Glancing at him with the Snow Empress's icy gaze, the tall Titled Douluo seemed to want to speak in defense, but the words remained.
Fear crossed his face, and he knelt, trembling all over.
This sudden scene left everyone present baffled.
After a moment, however, they realized that this person might have been responsible for the sudden agitation of the ice element.
Then, everyone glared at the towering Titled Douluo.
This man clearly treated their lives like a joke!
After the tall Titled Douluo knelt, Xue Di turned her gaze to Tian Qing Douluo.
Tian Qing Douluo's heart skipped a beat. He naturally wouldn't take action himself, so he sent his own subordinates to cause trouble for Huo Yuhao.
She hadn't expected Xue Di to even notice this.
"Tian Qing, how many years have you been with me?"
Tian Qing Douluo said with a trembling voice, "My Lord Xue Di, a full one hundred and eight years!"
"You know you've been with me for a hundred and eight years,
and you truly disappoint me!
You've been blinded by power, and you've actually done something like this today!
Have you ever considered the horrific disaster that would result if the seal reinforcement failed and soul-devouring creatures took advantage of the opportunity to enter Douluo Planet?"
Tian Qing Douluo said stubbornly, "Even if the seal fails, we can immediately drive these soul-devouring creatures back into the tunnel."
The losses will definitely not be great!"
"The losses will not be great?
If even one soul-devouring creature escapes our encirclement, it will lead to the deaths of countless unarmed civilians!
Aren't the lives of these civilians lives?" The cold voice of the Snow Empress rang in everyone's ears.
"I have given you many chances. Since you are so stubborn, I can only
kill you without mercy!"
Hearing what the Snow Empress said, Tianqing Douluo and the tall Titled Douluo suddenly stiffened.
The tall Titled Douluo instantly released the three-word battle armor and fled towards the distant sky.
However, the Snow Empress only glanced in the direction of his escape.
Then, a sky-blue light streaked across the sky.
With a "bang", the tall Titled Douluo exploded directly in the air.
Everyone gasped, a terrifying sight!
Snow Empress hadn't fought in centuries. Everyone knew she was powerful, but few knew her true strength.
This Titled Douluo hadn't even stood a chance of escape before her!
Seeing the Titled Douluo's death, Tianqing Douluo's eyes finally turned panicky. He quickly knelt and said,
"Lord Snow Empress, you've been in seclusion for so many years, and I've been responsible for the Far North Branch. Even if I haven't contributed much, I've worked hard.
Please spare my life. I'm willing to redeem myself and make meritorious contributions!"
Snow Empress shook her head and slowly walked towards Tianqing Douluo.
In Tianqing Douluo's eyes, Snow Empress's graceful figure looked like the grim reaper.
As Snow Empress reached Tianqing Douluo, she slowly raised her hand:
"My merits don't outweigh my faults!"
As Snow Empress's hand touched Tianqing Douluo's forehead, his panicked eyes instantly filled with azure.
A severe cold spell, no snow!
Azure Douluo, fallen!
Then, the Snow Empress looked at Chu Feng, "Tower Master Chu Feng, thank you for your trouble!"
Chu Feng bowed, "Your Excellency, Snow Empress, you're too polite!"
Then, Chu Feng produced a list:
"Here is a list. All the people listed on it have committed various crimes!"
"Azure Douluo, selling official positions, trafficking people, and sending the mentally disabled to mine deep in the Far North...
" "Ice Bear Douluo, accepting bribes and arranging for all his relatives to serve in the Spirit Pagoda. He was even short of assigning all the stray dogs in his village to serve as guard dogs..."
"Ice Snake Douluo, embezzling elixirs from the Far North Branch Tower and, after being reported, attacking the accuser..."
"Ice Spear Douluo..."
As Chu Feng read out the names and crimes, the faces of the several Titled Douluos present paled.
The Far North Branch Tower was about to undergo a major purge
