Douluo Continent: The Ten Kings of Hell, I am the Emperor of the Underworld

“You all know the orders of the God of Destruction, and you have already received your rewards. If you continue to cheat and shirk your duties, who knows what the gods of the divine realm will do? Tang Chen and High Priest Poseidon will not let you off the hook.”

Ning Qiuyang was clad in golden armor, with the Sword of Death standing before him.

After being scanned by Ning Qiuyang's gaze, the excited crowd calmed down.

They can easily renege on debts owed to ordinary people, but they dare not fail to repay debts owed to the gods.

Huge profits come with huge dangers.

Today, only a small number of Soul Masters participated in the probe of Jialing Pass, but with such a generous reward, they will be going to the battlefield tomorrow.

"Your Highness, rest assured, if anyone shirks their duty, I will use the spear bestowed upon me by the God King to slay them."

The artifact Poseidon obtained was a spear, not the artifact of the sea god, but an artifact left behind by a deity who had already died.

Poseidon answered decisively, while Tang Chen remained expressionless.

"That kid is full of bad ideas. He leaves the work of offending people to us in the supervisory team, while he enjoys the benefits himself. He's really inhuman."

Rakshasa God cursed and swore, thinking he had guessed Xue Qinghe's thoughts.

"Stop wasting your breath and tell me about this artifact. Tomorrow I will be in control of Tang Chen's body."

Tang San urged.

"What's there to say? It's just a two-handed sword, and a divine artifact of a level two god at that. Its effects are mediocre at best. You can figure it out yourself tomorrow."

Rakshasa God wasn't some kind of personal grandfather, so he couldn't be bothered to explain to Tang San.

Nothing happened that night; the Spirit Hall did not launch a sneak attack.

The following day, the Soul Master armies of the two great empires officially set foot on the battlefield.

"Tang Chen, go and try to break through Jialing Pass." Ning Qiuyang ordered from outside Jialing Pass.

"Damn it, this guy was definitely up to no good."

Tang San was also frustrated, but the words of the Rakshasa God and the God of Destruction still echoed in his ears, and he dared not disobey the order, so he approached Jialing Pass without saying a word.

"Your Highness, I'm going to guard the flanks."

Concerned for Tang Chen's safety, Poseidon offered her assistance.

"Go."

As Tang Chen approached Jialing Pass, he held a two-handed longsword in his hand and leaped high into the air, wanting to test whether the defenses of Jialing Pass were really that strong.

"Tang Chen, do you think I'm dead?"

The Soul Hall members at Jialing Pass weren't blind. Although Tang Chen sneakily circled around and quietly approached Jialing Pass, he was still discovered by Qian Daoliu.

"Sendou Ryu, prepare to die."

In the previous battle with Qian Daoliu, Tang San controlled Tang Chen's body and was clearly at a disadvantage.

This time, however, he not only possessed a divine artifact, but also some divine power within his body, and he felt that his strength had improved significantly compared to before.

Ding~
Tang Chen swung his longsword down, only to be blocked by a longsword.

With the Thousand Flow Angelic Holy Sword in hand, he effortlessly blocked Tang Chen's attack.

"You should stick to your Clear Sky Hammer. This sword isn't for you; it'll only make you a laughingstock."

Qian Daoliu even had the leisure to make a sarcastic remark.

The Angelic Holy Sword is a divine artifact of the Angel God. In terms of power alone, it surpasses the divine artifact bestowed upon Tang Chen by the God of Destruction. The key is that it is perfectly suited to Qian Daoliu, allowing him to unleash the full power of the Angelic Holy Sword.

The Angelic Holy Sword was originally Qian Renxue's weapon, but she made another breakthrough in her divine examination and now possesses a divine artifact that is more suitable for her divine position. The Angelic Holy Sword is now dispensable, so it was given to Qian Daoliu to use.

"Tang Chen, I'm here to help you."

Poseidon raised his spear, ready to join forces with Tang Chen to attack Qian Daoliu.

Qian Daoliu's expression remained unchanged. His past affection had vanished like a bubble. Poseidon was not only trying to kill him, but also to harm all the inheritors of the angelic divine positions, and now she was even endangering Qian Renxue.

If it were just him, he might not care, but when it comes to his granddaughter's vital interests, he absolutely cannot tolerate it.

Qian Daoliu completely ignored Poseidon. Before Poseidon could even get close, a figure blocked her way. "Long live His Holiness the Pope."

It was Qian Renxue who blocked Poseidon's path.

Her appearance was met with cheers from all the Soul Masters at Jialing Pass.

"Poseidon, your opponent is me."

Qian Renxue was dressed in black armor and held a sword in each hand.

The sword in her left hand shone brightly, while the sword in her right hand was dark and profound. Together with her armor, they brought immense pressure to Poseidon.

Qian Renxue looked at Poseidon with a very unfriendly gaze.

She learned some things about Qian Daoliu and Poseidon from Ning Qiuyang. She never expected that her grandfather, like her good-for-nothing father, had once been a sycophant.

Qian Xunji was killed by Bibi Dong, and Poseidon was almost harmed by her as well. Even if she didn't die, she would still be affected by the sea god.

The challenge to fight Poseidon was a request made by Qian Renxue herself.

She worried that Qian Daoliu might be like Qian Xunji; if Qian Daoliu was too soft-hearted to take action, it could ruin everything.

"Are you the Pope of Wuhun Palace?"

Looking at Qian Renxue's youthful appearance, Poseidon was somewhat shocked.

She knew that Qian Renxue was Qian Daoliu's daughter, and she also knew roughly how old Qian Renxue was. The fact that someone so young could make her feel so much pressure made Poseidon secretly startled.

"It is indeed I, the Pope, who will die alongside your sea god master."

The person Qian Renxue hates the most... or rather, the god must be the sea god. If she hadn't met Ning Qiuyang, she might have been tricked and killed by the sea god.

"How dare you insult the Sea God! You deserve to die!"

Poseidon was furious. The sea god was her faith, the deity she protected with her life.

To insult the sea goddess is to insult her lifelong faith.

Tang San, who was fighting Qian Daoliu, felt a little uncomfortable.

He always felt that Poseidon's words lacked power; he wished they had been replaced with "You have already found your way to death."

While Tang Chen and Poseidon were fighting Qian Daoliu and Qian Renxue respectively, Ning Qiuyang waved his hand and ordered the Soul Master Army to launch an attack.

Although he did want to kill Tang Chen, he couldn't have done it so obviously.

The unprecedented Soul Master War in the history of Douluo Continent has officially begun.

"Prepare to die!"

Ning Qiuyang took the lead, and with all the titled Douluo on his side following him, he directly charged into the Spirit Hall's territory.

He targeted Spirit Douluo of the Spirit Hall, and in a single exchange, swallowed him up with endless darkness.

"Marshal is mighty!"

"Your Highness is mighty!"

A cheer erupted from one of the two empires.

In the Star Luo Empire, Xue Qinghe is generally addressed as Marshal, while in the Heaven Dou Empire, Soul Masters address him more affectionately as His Highness the Emperor.

"Don't be so arrogant, I'll deal with you."

A loud voice came from afar and quickly blocked Ning Qiuyang's path.

The person blocking his way had Ning Qiuyang's face.

"With me, Ning Qiuyang, here, you are destined to return empty-handed."

Tang Chen, who was in the middle of a fierce battle with Qian Daoliu, suddenly shuddered and dodged to the side.

Tang San and Rakshasa God, both inside Tang Chen's body, were greatly alarmed.

Ning Qiuyang, that guy really did show up. We absolutely can't let him find us. If we die at his hands again, even the God of Asura can't save us. (End of Chapter)
