Chapter 206 The Great Purge and the Plague of the Dead
The night passed peacefully; one could even hear crickets chirping crisply in the corner of the wall.
However, Huo Yuhao knew that this was just the calm before the storm.
As the sun rose in the east, Wang Yiheng, carrying Tianmeng, left Mingdu without stopping.
Wang Yiheng's convoy, disguised as merchants, sped off amidst a cloud of dust.
Tianmeng, disguised as Lin Yi, sat with her eyes closed in the carriage, as if it were just an ordinary trip.
However, his hands were gripping the Transformation Refining Furnace and Di Tian's Achilles' heel tightly, revealing his inner turmoil.
Before the city gates were fully closed, a completely different aura descended from afar.
Kong Deming stood beneath the Ming capital, with the Silver Moon Divine Light Shield hovering above his head, the cold moonlight illuminating his face like an ice sculpture.
Behind him, the elite of the Evil Lord Soul Master Corps were like a silent torrent of steel, their cold armor reflecting a chilling glint in the sunlight.
The killing intent, at this moment, was as solid as a tangible substance, heavily pressing down on this newly awakened steel fortress.
Upon seeing this scene, the sparse pedestrians at the city gate scattered in panic, like startled birds.
The soldiers guarding the city were so shocked by Kong Deming's murderous aura that they froze on the spot, even their breathing stopped.
This is a fear stemming from the instinct for survival, as if being targeted by an ancient ferocious beast, daring not to move an inch.
"With Kong Deming, the head of the Hall of Offerings, here! Where is the Hall of Offerings of the Sun and Moon Empire?!"
"Xu He, the former crown prince of the Sun Moon Empire, colluded with Qian Duoduo, the wandering dean of Shrek Academy, to plot against Lin Yi, the future pillar of the empire!"
"Currently, Qian Duoduo and the three Zhong brothers have been executed, and the evidence in the Xu He case is conclusive!"
"This is a grave crime of treason, beyond redemption!"
Upon seeing this, Xia Xuanchen, standing behind Kong Deming, immediately shouted, "Evil Monarch Soul Master Corps!"
"Follow me to purge the rebels and restore a bright and clear world to the capital!"
?
The moment he finished speaking, the war drums sounded!
The dull, chilling sound of the hammer, like a death knell, slammed into the heart of Mingdu!
Rays of light rose into the air from the ancestral hall!
At this moment, all the Sun and Moon Empire's worshippers in the Hall of Worship were mobilized, their target being the Prince's Mansion that was supporting Xu He!
Regardless of which faction they previously favored, after Kong Deming uttered these words, the future crown prince of the Sun Moon Empire—no, the emperor of the Sun Moon Empire—can only be Xu Tianran!
Zheng Zhan, Wan Feng, Liao Mengkai, and even Xu Tianyuan, the leader of the Imperial Dragon Soul Mentor Group, all made their move at this moment!
Boom!
The first, extremely thick beam of soul-guided light tore through the brief silence and struck precisely a luxurious mansion in the east of the city!
The magnificent gatehouse, along with the plaque symbolizing the prince's honor, turned into a shower of powder in the blinding white light!
"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Defend immediately!"
The mournful roars of the Prince's Guard echoed throughout the Ming capital!
High walls collapsed, pavilions were shattered, and flames shot into the sky!
The bloody cleansing came in the most direct and violent way!
Prince Xu Guozhong suffered the most severe blow.
He is a powerful prince in the Sun Moon Empire. On the surface, he chooses to remain neutral, but in reality, he has been controlling the prince faction and is the biggest driving force behind it.
The moment he saw Liao Mengkai in the sky, this prince, who possessed the strength of a titled Douluo, soared into the sky and fiercely attacked Liao Mengkai!
Liao Mengkai's expression shifted, and two five-foot-long battle swords suddenly appeared in his hands.
A surge of vigorous blood energy erupted from Liao Mengkai, his magnificent aura tearing through the wind and clouds, making him seem nothing like a Soul Master.
He is the leader of the Terrorclaw Soul Master Corps, and his specialty is close combat; he is extremely powerful.
Liao Mengkai's pair of battle blades did not reflect any luster, as if they had a feeling of devouring everything, and the air was easily cut open with two thin marks wherever they passed.
His martial soul is a sword soul, which does not have a real form. It can be integrated into any metal, perfectly fusing himself with the metal.
The pitch-black blade light crossed in the air, transforming into a crisscrossing cross slash that headed straight for Xu Guozhong, who had transformed into the sun.
On the other side, the moment the soul-guided beam struck the prince's residence, the eight powerful figures in the courtyard moved.
They transformed into beams of light soaring into the sky, heading straight towards Xu Guozhong's location.
The Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy was calm at the moment, but the turmoil that erupted inside was no less than that of any prince's mansion in Mingdu.
The moment Kong Deming finished speaking, Jing Hongchen led many clan leaders loyal to the Xu Tianran family straight to Xu He's location.
However, just as they arrived at Xu He's door, something terrifying happened.
Two dragon beasts, each hundreds of meters long, suddenly burst out of the ground!
Their stark white bone claws tore through the earth, eerie will-o'-the-wisps flickered in their empty eye sockets, and the hurricanes they unleashed when they spread their wings almost leveled the surrounding buildings!
The ice dragon and bone dragon, both with the strength of a titled Douluo in the undead demiplane, were released by Ilex at this moment!
Skeletons, liches, banshees, abominations, zombies—
An army of undead creatures appeared almost simultaneously in various parts of Mingdu!
In the sky above Mingdu, a chaotic battle raged between Soul Douluo and Title Douluo level powerhouses, while on the streets of Mingdu, a rolling black ocean stretched out!
Waves of skulls surged, a procession of banshees raced through the alleys, and with each step the abomination took, rotting flesh fell from its joints.
A terrifying ghostly storm swirled in the sky above Mingdu, emitting a shrill cry like that of an infant's hoof!
This is death itself moving!
"The army of the undead!"
Electrolux's voice echoed across Mingdu: "Charge at Xu He with all your might!"
The moment Kong Deming finished speaking, not only did the people in the Hall of Offerings react, but Huo Yuhao did as well.
After the eight guardians left, Electrox transformed into a gray stream of air and rose into the sky, decisively opening the undead demiplane above Mingdu.
The battle between the two princes ended with Xu He's defeat, but that didn't stop Huo Yuhao from throwing dirty water on Xu Tianran.
Kong Deming said that Xu He cooperated with the Holy Spirit Cult. So when a massive army of undead, as vast as a tidal wave, rushed towards the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy under the pretext of killing Xu He, how would Xu Tianran explain it later?
With the arrival of the undead scourge, the already chaotic situation in Mingdu has become even more terrifying.
The nearby residents fled in terror, scrambling like a swarm of startled ants.
Electrox, hidden high above, watched as the undead deliberately avoided the civilian areas, casting the shadow of death over military strongholds and noble residences.
However, the residents who died in the chaos were not within his and Huo Yuhao's consideration.
The fact that Huo Yuhao considered these things before detonating the underground armory was the greatest act of kindness he could do.
This cataclysmic event nearly depleted 70% of the undead population in the undead demiplane.
Even the three titled Douluo-level bone dragons and ice dragons, Electrolux sent out two of them.
He still wanted to leave the remaining 30% of the undead to Huo Yuhao to empty the underground warehouse.
Having done all this, Electrolux transformed back into a wisp of gray light and returned to Huo Yuhao's Niwan Palace.
You can make undead creatures again later, but if you miss this opportunity, you won't have another chance.
Upon witnessing the arrival of the undead army, Kong Deming, who was guarding the palace, suddenly changed his expression.
Is this a collective incarnation of the Holy Spirit Cult?!
He didn't have time to question Xu Tianran; he immediately flew towards the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, where the aura of the undead army was strongest.
The two bone dragons and the ice dragon unleashed an endless storm of undead, shrouding Xu He's residence in a gray-white veil.
They frantically attacked the soul-guided shield above their dwelling, their cold and eerie dragon breath freezing the air into ice.
Jing Hongchen and the others watched the two undead dragons with amusement, but were somewhat puzzled by Xu Tianran's actions.
"Aren't you even trying to hide it anymore?"
