Battle Through the Heavens: The Soul Emperor's Only Daughter, I Am the Young Master of the Soul

Chapter 72 Enemies

"Father wouldn't!"

Hun Qing calmed himself down and stubbornly said, his neck stiff.

However, her voice revealed a tremor that she herself was unaware of.

No way? That's not necessarily true!

Void Devouring Flame chuckled and shook his head, patting her shoulder earnestly, "You still don't understand your father enough. In any case, you can't go wrong by listening to your second uncle."

"I understand..." Hun Qinghao said sullenly, staring at the palace gate for a long time, but ultimately did not choose to go in.

Seeing her turn to leave, Void Devouring Flame suddenly called out to her, "Hey, girl, aren't you going in?"

"Second Uncle said that Father hasn't come out of seclusion yet, so I won't go in and disturb him."

Watching her departing figure, the gentleness on Void Devouring Flame's face faded, and his eyes revealed icy coldness.

If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't gather enough top-tier alchemists to refine the Demon Spirit Pill for Qing'er, he wouldn't have bothered to remind her.

"Hehe, Venerable Medicine, I hope you won't disappoint me then..." Void Devouring Flame muttered to himself, a glimmer of light flashing in his dark pupils before his figure transformed into black flames and vanished into the air.

……

At the top of the Black Lotus Palace, Hun Qinghao sat on the highest lotus leaf, his feet dangling in the air, looking down at the entire Soul Realm.

"That guy just now... your second uncle, his aura wasn't human, it seemed like a spirit of strange fire."

Just as Hun Qinghao was staring blankly at the Soul Realm, Yao Chen's voice entered her heart.

Hun Qinghao came to his senses and said, "He is Void Devouring Flame. He always relies on his sworn brotherhood with my father to make me call him Second Uncle. The key is that my father has also acknowledged his identity."

"Hmph, he's such a tattletale!" Hun Qing said angrily, slapping the lotus leaf beneath her.

Yao Chen: "No wonder he could spot me at a glance; it turns out he is the true form of the Void Devouring Flame."

Hearing his calm and composed remark, Hun Qinghao was slightly surprised. "Teacher doesn't seem flustered at all?"

"Isn't there still Qing'er? I believe that Qing'er won't let anyone hurt me!" Yao Chen said with a smile.

This trust made Hun Qing suddenly realize, "Yes, as long as I'm here, I won't let anyone in the Soul Realm harm my teacher!"

So what's bothering her?

She'd been bored and lonely for so long.

After figuring it out, Hun Qing smiled again and skipped away from the dome.

Meanwhile, outside the Black Lotus Palace, two groups of people were facing off.

Although both groups were dressed in black robes, one of them had black lotus patterns embroidered on their robes.

"Soul Star He, I'm here to see the young master. What right do you have to stop me?" The handsome young man with black eyes glared angrily at the tall, beautiful, and dashing woman in front of him.

"Soul Wind, the clan leader is in seclusion and you can't sit still? Believe me or not, as soon as the clan leader comes out of seclusion, I will report to the clan leader about your forced entry into the Black Lotus Palace!" Soul Star He said slowly, with one hand on his hip and a cold smile on his lips.

"You!" Hun Feng's face darkened, and his powerful aura spread out instantly.

Hun Xinghe was not afraid at all. Although her cultivation was inferior to Hun Feng's, she was by no means inferior in spirit. She glared at Hun Feng with sharp eyes: "What, are you going to attack me at the gate of the Black Lotus Palace?"

"Don't forget, I am the deputy commander of the Black Lotus Guard. Your attack on me is an insult to the young master!"

Hun Xinghe knew what Hun Feng cared about most, and stabbed him straight in the heart.

Hun Feng, already insane, exploded upon hearing Hun Xinghe's words. Disregarding his image, he spat at Hun Xinghe and mocked her relentlessly, "A petty person who has gained power is just a fox borrowing the tiger's might. No wonder you've remained in the position of deputy commander for so many years. In my opinion, you'll never become the commander of the Black Lotus Guard in your lifetime..."

The two have never gotten along. Hun Xinghe knows what Hun Feng cares about most, so he deliberately stabs at his heart. Hun Feng does the same, relentlessly poking at Hun Xinghe's sore spots.

Enraged, Hun Xinghe roared, her face contorted in fury, "Hun Feng, you bitch, I'm going to tear you apart today!"

Hunfeng, not to be outdone, rolled up his sleeves and said, "Come on, who's afraid of who? Let's settle all our old and new scores!"

Anyway, it was Hun Xinghe who made the first move, so when the young master asks about it, he won't be blamed.

Just as the two were about to start fighting, the people behind them quickly grabbed their leader.

"Brother, calm down, calm down! Think about where we are. This is the Black Lotus Palace. It's not worth ruining your image in the young master's eyes over something like this, brother!" Hunyu grabbed the crazed Hunfeng and pleaded in his ear.

At the same time, Hun Xinghe was also tightly held by the woman beside her.

"Sister Xinghe, we can't beat Hunfeng. There's really no need to force ourselves to suffer. Hunfeng might get scolded by the young master, but he won't be seriously injured. But if you really get hurt, Sister Xinghe, Hunfeng won't show you any mercy!"

Hearing this, Hun Xinghe gradually calmed down and nodded, saying, "Chu Yin, you're right. We don't need to suffer because of this madman."

Seeing that Hun Xinghe, who was easily agitated when she encountered Hun Feng, had calmed down, Hun Chuyin breathed a slight sigh of relief. Not only could Sister Xinghe not beat Hun Feng, but she couldn't beat Hun Yu either!

Hun Xinghe calmed down, and Hun Feng, having lost interest in his own madness, gradually returned to calm.

At this moment, the palace gates slowly opened.

Upon seeing this, the four people at the gate all stepped into the palace, but Hun Xinghe stopped Hun Feng, saying, "Alas, the clan leader has ordered that Hun Feng is not allowed to enter the Black Lotus Palace."

Suppressing his anger, Hunfeng said in a gloomy voice, "When did the clan leader give such an order? I think you're the one who acted on your own."

Hun Yu and Hun Chuyin watched as the two, who had just calmed down, began a new round of confrontation, and remained silent.

"..." They were exhausted and had nothing more to say.

"Alright, stop blocking the doorway, come in."

Suddenly, a clear and ethereal voice came from inside the hall. Upon hearing it, Hun Yu and Hun Chuyin were immediately invigorated, as if they had heard a message of rescue.

Now that Hun Qing had spoken, Hun Xinghe, no matter how much she disliked Hun Feng, no longer stopped him.

"Hmph, since the young master has given the order, I'll let you go for now." With that, Hun Xinghe took the lead and entered the main hall.

"Your cultivation level isn't even as high as mine, why would I need you to let me go?" Hun Feng sneered, quickly catching up with Hun Xinghe's pace, making sure he didn't fall behind her.

Behind them, Hun Yu and Hun Chuyin exchanged a glance, gave a helpless bitter smile, and then walked into the main hall side by side.

Inside the main hall, Hun Qing sat upright on a black lotus platform, her indifferent gaze falling on the four people standing in a row below, her small face solemn and silent.

After a long while, Hun Qinghao looked at Hun Feng and Hun Xinghe in the middle and asked calmly, "Did you two have another fight?"

Hun Feng immediately defended himself: "Young Master, it was Hun Xinghe who started this trouble first. I was just retaliating."

"You're talking nonsense!" Hun Xinghe glared at Hun Feng, then looked at Hun Qinghao on the lotus platform and said seriously, "Young Master, he insisted on entering the Black Lotus Palace, but the clan leader gave an order before going into seclusion not to let him get close to you."
