Douluo Sharingan, I really didn't coerce Xiao Wu!

Chapter 209 The Spirit Hall's Wanted Notice

(I apologize for posting the same thing twice!)

"What?!"

Upon hearing Chen Xuan's words, everyone from the Spirit Hall was shocked. How could Yan and the ten Soul Emperors die so easily? They thought he was joking.

Xie Yue, in particular, turned pale upon hearing the news of Yan's death. He was so shocked that he felt a chill run through him and refused to accept the information.

Yan was his childhood friend, a partner he had played with since he was little, and his best friend in the Spirit Hall.

Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo's palms were trembling. As titled Douluo, they could not remain calm upon hearing this news, and their faces showed sorrow.

Yan and Xieyue are children they watched grow up; they're like grandchildren to them, even though they're not their grandchildren.

Only Hu Liena remained calm, showing little emotional fluctuation. She was only concerned about Tang San's whereabouts and wanted to ask him why he had lied to her.

"Sigh, please accept my condolences, everyone. I'll take you to the scene," Chen Xuan sighed, feigning seriousness.

Since he and Tang San were already locked in a life-or-death struggle, he had no qualms and might as well make a few more enemies for Tang San.

Da Ming and Er Ming exchanged glances. The Titan Ape scratched its head in confusion. What was going on?

Initially, some people thought Chen Xuan's words were unbelievable, but now that they saw him leading the way and not seeming to be lying, they realized that Yan and the ten Soul Emperors were really dead.

"Follow me." Chen Xuan beckoned to the Spirit Hall members and led them to the place where Yan had died, just a few kilometers away.

He deliberately walked behind the Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape, using the size of the two soul beasts as cover, created a clone, and then used his space-time ability to disappear in a flash.

He used his shadow clone to clean up the battlefield, erasing any traces he left behind, and then retrieved the three Yama's Decree and the Dragon Beard Needle from the space-time dimension and made some arrangements.

"How can you be so mean? You still say you're not a bad guy." Xiao Wu said softly, her voice very low. She lightly punched him, feeling that he was being very unfair. He was clearly the murderer, yet he could still act sad.

Not long after, Chen Xuan led a group from the Spirit Hall into the forest and arrived at the place where Yan had died.

When Xie Yue arrived at this place, he felt a chill run down his spine; the scene before him was too bloody.

The forest reeked of blood, with blood and bone fragments scattered everywhere. Eleven flattened human skins lay on the ground, their internal organs and bones fused together—a truly horrifying sight.

Some Soul Emperors with low tolerance for nausea started retching, and the stench mixed with the blood made them feel even worse.

Hu Liena's expression changed slightly, but she remained relatively calm. Having lived in the City of Slaughter for many years, this was nothing compared to what she had seen that was far more bloody.

Xie Yue's face was pale, her stomach was churning, and she almost vomited.

Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo looked grim. How dare they treat the people of the Spirit Hall like this? Such an insult was simply disrespectful.

Chrysanthemum went to clean up the battlefield, and soon he found several dragon whisker needles and embroidery needles hidden in the grass, all of which were covered in poison.

Ghost Douluo also made a discovery: in the snowdrift covered with human skin, he found three jet-black arrows, shrouded in black mist and dripping with black liquid.

His face was grim. This venom was definitely extremely poisonous. Even a titled Douluo like him would die if he came into contact with it; his flesh and bones would likely melt away.

"Don't touch these corpses, their blood contains deadly poison!" Ghost Douluo warned everyone. Even a master like him dared not touch them lightly, and could only use his soul power to draw up three palm-sized arrows.

Everyone was shocked, realizing the seriousness of the matter. Tang San's methods were extraordinary, making even a Title Douluo so cautious!

After examining the corpse, Juhua Guan sighed inwardly. Even the human skin was stained with black venom, and the blood and bones had melted away, leaving only remnants containing potent poison. He could only take some clothes and weapons back to use as a cenotaph.

Originally, none of the eleven dead people had been poisoned. Chen Xuan's shadow clone arrived early and manipulated the three Yama's Decree and Dragon Beard Needles, inserting them into each of the corpses, causing the already shattered bones and flesh of these people to be completely melted by the deadly poison.

Xie Yue gritted his teeth, his eyes blazing with fury, and roared, "Tang San, the Spirit Hall will fight you to the death!"

Hu Liena opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but seeing the angry faces of everyone, she silently shut her mouth.

She firmly believed that Tang Yin was not that kind of person and that there must be a misunderstanding. However, when she thought about their experience in the Slaughter City, where Tang San had used many kinds of hidden weapons, her originally firm belief began to waver. Now, all the blame was being directed at Tang San.

Even if Hu Liena believes Tang Yin, the two Douluo Ju Gui, Xie Yue, and the people from the Spirit Hall, it's almost certain that the symbols of hidden weapons and deadly poison are too obvious, and it was Tang San who did it.

If Tang San hadn't killed Yan and ten loyal members of the Spirit Hall, would Chen Xuan still only have the cultivation level of a Soul Master? That's clearly unrealistic.

Xie Yue had seen Chen Xuan's performance in the competition. He was known for his strange spatial abilities and disdained to use hidden weapons. Moreover, he himself could not make such a poisonous hidden weapon.

Only a genius like Tang San, with twin martial souls and countless extraordinary skills, who has used hidden weapons such as the Rain of Pear Blossom Needles and the Mother-Child Gallbladder many times, could possibly kill eleven Soul Emperors in a row.

In the end, Chrysanthemum Pass, Evil Moon, and the others left, taking with them some of Yan's clothes, as well as the armor and other items of the ten deceased Soul Emperors, to be used as cenotaphs.

Before leaving, Hu Liena approached Chen Xuan and Xiao Wu and asked, "Have you seen Tang Yin? I mean, have you seen where he went?"

"I don't know, they should have left the Star Dou Great Forest." Chen Xuan said without batting an eye.

"Thanks," Hu Liena replied absentmindedly, following the main group as they left the Star Dou Great Forest.

Thus, the Spirit Hall's operation to capture Xiao Wu ended in failure, resulting in the loss of ten Soul Emperors and the death of Yan Zhan from the Golden Generation, who was left without even a complete body, a truly tragic end.

On that day, the Spirit Hall issued a high-level wanted notice, launching a comprehensive manhunt for Tang San, with a generous reward of two Title Douluo for anyone who captured him alive.

After the Spirit Hall members left, Xiao Wu took Chen Xuan back to Maple Forest, where there was a small wooden house where she had lived for a long time.

After they returned to their lodgings, the sun quietly set, and the evening glow arrived, painting the horizon a vibrant crimson, as beautiful as an oil painting.

Da Ming and Er Ming have also returned. Their dwelling is very close to here, which can protect Xiao Wu well.

"Chen Xuan, thank you for protecting Sister Xiao Wu," the Azure Bull Python said, expressing its sincerest gratitude.

The Titan Ape pounded its chest and roared loudly in gratitude to Chen Xuan.

"Xiao Wu is also my wife. Protecting her is what I should do. I should be thanking you all. I'm so glad you took care of her while I was away," Chen Xuan said with a smile.

Xiao Wu's cheeks flushed slightly, filled with embarrassment and indignation. She glared at him playfully and said, "What nonsense are you talking about? Who's your wife? I haven't agreed to it yet!"

She frowned, pretending to be angry, and punched Chen Xuan in dissatisfaction.

Feeling that he had made a fool of himself, the Azure Bull Python twisted its massive body and burrowed into the lake, disappearing into the depths of the lakebed.

The Titan Ape glanced at Chen Xuan a few more times, then let out a low growl, leaped into the distant forest, and disappeared from sight.

The two 100,000-year-old soul beasts retreated, and in the blink of an eye, the place became very empty, leaving only the two of them.

"Ahem..." Chen Xuan glanced at the small wooden house, feigned a cough, and said, "Xiao Wu, it's getting late, we should rest!"
