Chapter 110: Jing Hongchen Huo Yuhao Has the Bearing of a Deity
The First Saint Spirit was momentarily stunned before bursting into laughter.
"Huo Yuhao, I won't deny that you're a genius. But even geniuses need time to grow. You seem a little too confident. Don't worry, I won't kill you. If you die, my own life would be in danger. But you should surrender at least that way, you'll suffer less."
He had absolute confidence in these vengeful spirits because they came from a Seventh Tier Soul Tool The Holy Spirit Banner.
The Holy Spirit Banner could only be wielded by those highly skilled in manipulating souls.
In this branch of the Holy Spirit Cult, only he and the black robed elder could use it.
"Huo Yuhao, run!" Na Na's expression changed.
These two were Soul Emperors, and Evil Soul Masters were exceptionally powerful, often able to fight above their level.
Even against ordinary Soul Sages, they wouldn't be at a disadvantage.
Her soul tools had little effect on vengeful spirits.
Even though her Martial Soul Ghost Phantom could attack spirits directly, she was still too weak to fight against so many of them.
She knew she had to stay her parents' souls were still in their hands.
If she could sacrifice herself to ignite the dean's fury and destroy these evil people, it would be worth it.
The black robed elder watched the scene unfold, eyes gleaming with delight.
"The First Saint Spirit is a sharp one if he captures Huo Yuhao and uses him as leverage against Jing Hongchen, we can escape!"
He instinctively glanced toward Jing Hongchen.
But something was off.
By all logic, a genius like Huo Yuhao should have Jing Hongchen's full attention.
So why did Jing Hongchen look so unbothered?
Did he actually believe that Huo Yuhao and Na Na could defeat the vengeful spirits?
The thought flashed through his mind then immediately vanished.
"No way. There's no chance Huo Yuhao can deal with these spirits!"
"All I need to do is stall using my defensive soul tool and Invincible Barrier."
"Fortunately, Jing Hongchen wants to capture me alive otherwise, I'd already be dead."
Was Huo Yuhao Good at Dealing with Vengeful Spirits?
Absolutely.
After all, Electrolux was the God of Necromancy.
Purging vengeful spirits was his specialty.
Since Evil Soul Masters existed, Electrolux had taken the time to teach Huo Yuhao a spell Purification Light.
So when the vengeful spirits lunged toward Huo Yuhao, screeching in fury, a silver glow flickered on his forehead.
The Eye of Destiny flared.
A single low chant left his lips
"Purify."
A wave of pure white light erupted from his body.
The vengeful spirits froze.
Their twisted forms shifted, revealing the faces of the people they had once been.
Meanwhile, both the First and Second Saint Spirits let out agonized screams.
Their bodies convulsed, black mist rising from their skin.
"No!"
The First Saint Spirit's voice trembled.
"I can feel my soul... dissolving! In the Holy Spirit Cult, only the Holy Emperor possesses this kind of power... Could it be... that you are the one we've been searching for "
His words never finished.
Under the radiant Purification Light, both the First and Second Saint Spirits crumbled into ashes.
Huo Yuhao had never intended to spare them.
They were only Holy Spirit Cult disciples, ranking low within the organization.
Even if he had captured them alive, they wouldn't have known anything important.
Na Na Was Stunned
"Th they're dead?"
She couldn't believe it.
When Huo Yuhao first arrived, he had only three soul rings a Soul Elder at best.
Yet, he had just instantly killed two Soul Emperors.
"How is this possible?!"
From the white energy radiating off of Huo Yuhao, it looked like a soul skill but she had never seen a soul tool function like this.
Huo Yuhao nodded casually.
"Yeah. Killed them."
His tone was so calm, it sounded like he had just squashed two mosquitoes.
Na Na stared at him, at a complete loss for words.
The black robed elder's eyes were filled with horror.
"Impossible! Even if Huo Yuhao had a Seraphim Martial Soul, it would be impossible to instantly kill two Soul Emperors! He's still just a Soul Elder!"
"What was that white light?!"
Then he recalled something
"Wait... The First Saint Spirit's last words... 'Only the Holy Emperor has this power'..."
"Could Huo Yuhao be... the Holy Son our cult has been searching for?"
The thought terrified him.
This Holy Son was far from friendly.
And from the holy aura of his light, Huo Yuhao was even more dangerous than the Seraphim users he had encountered before.
Suddenly
CRACK!
His Invincible Barrier shattered.
At the same time, a golden rope coiled tightly around him.
Jing Hongchen grabbed the black robed elder by the throat, then flew over to Huo Yuhao and Na Na.
His expression was serious.
"Huo Yuhao…"
"Based on your performance just now… I dare say you have the bearing of a deity."
He had no idea how Huo Yuhao instantly killed two Soul Emperors.
But he knew for a fact Huo Yuhao hadn't even used his soul tools.
This meant that his own abilities were outrageously powerful.
"Could it be a soul bone skill?"
"Even people destined to become gods weren't this powerful at the Soul Elder level."
"If Huo Yuhao isn't a future god… then who is?"
Huo Yuhao smiled slightly.
"Dean, you flatter me."
Jing Hongchen grinned.
"Flatter? I don't think so. Look around who in the history of the Sun Moon Empire can compare to you?"
"Consider today's Evil Soul Master hunt on me."
His intention wasn't to steal credit.
To someone at his level, promotions meant nothing.
He was already the Head of Mingde Hall.
The only position higher was Head of the Worship Hall.
And there was no way he was taking Kong Deming's place.
Besides, Worship Hall members had higher research freedom, but Mingde Hall's leader had stronger connections.
"I'd rather be where I am."
