Chapter 209: Re-entering Slaughter City
Twilight descended.
Slaughter Town.
In front of a small tavern, two figures quietly appeared.
They were none other than Su Mo and Gu Yuena.
In Su Mo's arms was the Emperor Auspicious Beast, the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.
"Let's go in," Su Mo said softly.
With that, he took the lead and walked toward the tavern's doors.
Gu Yuena followed closely behind.
Inside the tavern, the lights were dim, and several burly men who were drinking turned their heads to look when they saw the two of them.
As for their gazes, the vast majority of them fell on Gu Yuena, carrying an undisguised, lewd look.
However, at that very moment, a bone-chilling aura suddenly spread out from Su Mo's body—it was Su Mo's Asura Domain.
The moment the Domain expanded, the entire small tavern was covered with a layer of white frost, and the lewd look in the eyes of those burly men completely dissipated, replaced by utter terror.
Their faces turned pale, and their bodies began to tremble uncontrollably, feeling as if they had fallen into an ice cellar!
At this time, with a thought from Su Mo, the tangible Killing Intent within the Domain twisted and strangled toward those burly men.
In an instant, a bloody scar appeared on each of their necks, and they lost their breath one after another, falling to the ground with their eyes wide open in death.
Yet Su Mo didn't even spare these corpses a single glance.
He walked straight up to the bar and said to the trembling service personnel, "Open the entrance."
"Y-Yes, respected Slaughter God!"
As the personnel guarding the entrance, he was not unfamiliar with the Slaughter God Domain.
He hurriedly fumbled under the bar, his hands shaking violently, touching it several times before finding the mechanism.
With a rumble.
The ground behind the bar revealed a dark cave entrance.
Su Mo took Gu Yuena and plunged into the cave entrance.
Before long, they arrived at the passageway of Slaughter City.
And Su Mo had no intention of walking into the city on foot, because he knew all too well what this underground city was like.
The city was filthy, chaotic, and unendurable to the eye.
Su Mo certainly didn't want Gu Yuena and the Three-Eyed Golden Lion to see those unbearable scenes, lest it dirty their eyes.
Thus, Su Mo directly took Gu Yuena and disappeared into the passageway.
A moment later, they appeared in front of the Slaughter King's palace.
At the gates of the palace stood two rows of Black Armored Knights.
Each and every one of them had a straight posture, their faces hidden in the shadows of their helmets.
Seeing someone approaching, the two leading knights immediately drew their swords, the tips pointing directly at Su Mo.
"Halt! Entry is forbidden here!"
However, Su Mo ignored them; he merely raised his eyes to look.
The next moment, an invisible Spiritual Power instantly erupted.
The Black Armored Knights didn't even have time to let out a miserable scream before their bodies froze in place, and then they fell down, already devoid of breath.
Su Mo withdrew his gaze and continued walking inside the palace.
Gu Yuena silently followed behind Su Mo.
Soon, the two of them arrived inside the main hall.
At this moment, a person was sitting on the throne.
That was a burly middle-aged man with a rough and ferocious face.
He had originally been resting his eyes with them closed, but upon hearing the movement, he abruptly opened his eyes.
"Who are you people! Why have you forcefully barged into this king's territory!" the middle-aged man shouted angrily.
However, when his gaze fell on Gu Yuena, the entire person froze instantly.
On his rough face, an undisguised greed and desire surfaced, and his eyes stared straight at Gu Yuena.
Even though he had been the Slaughter King for so long and had played with countless women, compared to the woman in front of him, they had all become vulgar and common.
And when Gu Yuena felt the middle-aged man's gaze, she only felt uncomfortable all over.
Her gaze instantly turned cold.
The next moment, she raised her right hand, preparing to slap the other party to death with one palm.
"Wait a moment."
Su Mo reached out and gently pressed down on Gu Yuena's hand.
His action was very light, yet it made Gu Yuena's delicate body tremble slightly, and her original anger instantly vanished.
She abruptly pulled back her hand, looked at Su Mo, and a nameless, indescribable strangeness surged within her heart.
At that very instant just now, she had a very bizarre feeling, as if she had been struck by an electric current.
Su Mo didn't notice Gu Yuena's strangeness; he looked toward the middle-aged man: "You are the current Slaughter King? What about the Blood Wolf?"
Hearing this, the middle-aged man came back to his senses.
Blood Wolf? Wasn't that his former immediate superior? The person in front of him actually knew the Blood Wolf?
Wait...
He stared blankly at Su Mo's face, actually feeling an inexplicable sense of familiarity.
Suddenly, his pupils violently shook, as if he had seen something extremely terrifying.
"Y... You are Lord Asura?!"
The middle-aged man sat up in shock from the throne, his face filled with fear.
Su Mo raised an eyebrow: "Oh? You actually recognize me?"
Hearing this, the middle-aged man hurriedly ran down from the steps, then knelt on one knee in front of Su Mo, lowering his head: "Lord Asura, this humble one is blind and failed to recognize Mount Tai, not knowing that it was you who arrived. Please forgive me, My Lord!"
The middle-aged man's heart beat wildly.
He knew all too well how terrifying the man in front of him was.
The Blood Wolf was a Titled Douluo, yet he didn't even dare to breathe heavily in front of him, and was even beaten into complete submission.
And just now, he had actually dared to use that kind of gaze to size up the woman by his side.
Thinking of this, cold sweat poured down the middle-aged man's back.
"Answer my question." Su Mo's voice remained calm.
The middle-aged man did not dare to delay, and hurriedly said: "Reporting to My Lord, several years ago, a powerful Soul Master wielding the Clear Sky Hammer Martial Soul barged into Slaughter City, turning this place upside down. Lord Blood Wolf also fell because of this.
And I was originally a Captain of the Law Enforcement Team under Lord Blood Wolf. At that time, being further away from the center of the great battle, I narrowly survived.
Thereafter, because Lord Blood Wolf suddenly fell, Slaughter City was left without a leader and fell into chaos. I then seized the opportunity, relying on my own strength and the subordinates of the Law Enforcement Team, to become the new Slaughter King, and only then managed to suppress the chaos and rebuild Slaughter City."
Clear Sky Hammer? Hearing this, Su Mo instantly understood.
That Soul Master wielding the Clear Sky Hammer was undoubtedly Tang Chen.
He most likely learned that Tang Hao died in Slaughter City, and in his rage, launched a massive slaughter to vent his anger.
"I am already aware of this matter," Su Mo nodded. "Since you recognize me, from now on you will manage Slaughter City well for me. You cannot let the fallen ones escape. Do you understand?"
Su Mo didn't care about the life or death of the Blood Wolf, nor did he care who sat on that throne, as long as someone could keep those crazy fallen ones outside in check.
When the middle-aged man heard these words, his hanging heart finally dropped.
He hadn't expected that Su Mo not only wouldn't pursue his offense from just now, but even let him continue being this Slaughter King.
He hurriedly nodded, his voice carrying the excitement of surviving a disaster: "Thank you, Lord Asura! Please rest assured, this humble one will definitely do his utmost to manage Slaughter City well."
"Alright, you may withdraw first. I will be staying here for a few days, and during this period, do not come to disturb me."
"As you command, this humble one will go out right away."
After saying this, the middle-aged man got up and ran out of the hall, completely losing the demeanor of the Slaughter King, fearing that if he was a step slower, Su Mo would regret it.
