Soul Town: Claiming the throne? You've asked my Tian Ce Army, haven't you?

"He was bullying people by taking advantage of his cultivation level. If I were also an immortal, I would have killed him instantly!"

He coughed lightly, "If you can help me sneak out of here, I'll take you as my apprentice, how about it?"

Lin Haiyuan remained kneeling, saying, "I won't help you. You should just go back and stay there!"

Why is this kid so stubborn?

Wang Shengan didn't intend to force the issue. If they didn't want to help, so be it. Even without their help, he could still slip away on his own...

"I forgot to tell you, the senior cast a curse on you. As soon as you step out of Thousand Machine City, you'll turn into a lump of rotten flesh..."

Wang Shengan paused, glanced back at Lin Haiyuan, and then squatted back down. "Really?"

"Really. Also, Lady Lingyan said she won't use you to drive away those people outside, but you have to stay here and behave yourself!"

Lord Ling Yan?

"You're not talking about that guy at the fourth level of creation, are you?"

Lin Haiyuan corrected him seriously, "It's the fifth realm of creation. Lady Lingyan successfully broke through last night..."

"They're about the same!"

Wang Shengan asked with some curiosity, "Is he the young master of the Tang Clan? Why does it seem like all of you listen to him?"

He wasn't trying to gather intelligence with the mercenary group; he was just curious. After all, he considered using children to obtain information to be a despicable act.

"No, Lady Lingyan is not a member of the Tang Clan..."

"You're just talking nonsense!"

Since he had nothing better to do, Wang Shengan simply sat down on the ground. "If he wasn't a member of the Tang Clan, why would he risk the world's condemnation to guard this Thousand Machine City?"

"You... never mind, believe it or not!"

Lin Haiyuan turned his head away, "Go play somewhere else, don't disturb my apprenticeship!"

At this moment, Duan Mei walked over carrying two lunch boxes. She glanced at Wang Shengan, who was greeting her, and placed one of the lunch boxes next to Lin Haiyuan. "Haiyuan, eat first!"

"Sister Mei, let's leave it for now!"

Duan Mei nodded, then stepped forward and knocked on Shi Mo's door. "Uncle Shi, I've brought you your lunch!"

A moment later, Shi Mo opened the door, took the lunchbox from Duan Mei's hand, and said, "Xiao Mei, you've worked hard!"

"It's not hard work. If there's nothing else, I'll go back and take care of Wunian!"

"Well, let's go!"

Shi Mo put the lunchbox back inside and walked up to Wang Shengan. "Kid, you're a prisoner now, don't act like you're the master..."

“Even prisoners are better than you Tang Clan bloodthirsty madmen. Do you know how many families have been destroyed because of your Tang Clan?”

Wang Shengan was stubborn; the worst that could happen was death. "You Tang Clan people only know how to stab people in the back; all you care about is money!"

"In all my years in the Great Thousand God Realm, I've even witnessed them massacre entire families, sparing not even children. They have absolutely no moral bottom line, and they deserve their fate today!"

"Have you finished cursing?"

Shi Mo stood aside with a smile. He wasn't angry at all; after all, he wasn't a member of the Tang Clan, he was just helping Jiang Yatou...

Wait... isn't Jiang Yatou currently considered a member of the Tang Clan? Is this kid insulting Jiang Yatou?

Shi Mo's face hardened, and he was about to teach Wang Sheng'an a lesson when Lin Haiyuan, who was kneeling beside him, started to lash out first.

"The Tang Clan may have many bad people, but are all of you good people?"

Lin Haiyuan took a deep breath. "I heard Lady Molan say that the Tang Clan did indeed kill many people, including good people and bad people..."

"Within the Tang Clan, there are many who kill for money, but there are also those who have their own principles and only kill evil people..."

"You people offer bounties to members of the Tang Clan but show no mercy. What right do you have to criticize the Tang Clan here?"

Wang Shengan was momentarily speechless, unsure how to refute, but finally forced himself to say, "At least we won't lay a hand on the child..."

How do you know they won't lay a hand on the child?

"Definitely not!"

Wang Shengan was very certain of this. He was a righteous person, so how could he be confused with villains like the Tang Clan?

"Kid, stop kidding!"

Shi Mo shook his head, truly baffled as to how Wang Renqing could have such a foolish son. "Do you know what the foundation was for the Tang Clan's growth and rise to become one of the five major powers?"

Wang Shengan was taken aback for a moment, then guessed, "Could it be a secret assassination technique from the Tang Clan?"

"Idiot, it's an assassination bounty!"

Shi Mo glanced at him and said, "The reason why the Tang Sect was able to grow and prosper is because there are a lot of people in the Great Thousand God Realm who carry out assassination bounties in the Tang Sect, and they have even expanded their businesses into the human realm!"

"If everyone were as upright and honest as you say, the Tang Clan would decline on its own without anyone having to lift a finger!"

"If the previous leader of the Tang Clan had been reckless enough to assassinate the world's number one swordsman, the Tang Clan would still be full of bounty missions. Do you think it would be like this now?"

"Most people are two-faced. The reason they're surrounding the Tang Clan now is simply because the Tang Clan has been crushed, and everyone wants a piece of the pie!"

"It's like an elephant on the savanna. Even lions wouldn't dare to mess with it normally, but once it falls, even vultures dare to come and take a bite..."

"So that's why! The Great Thousand God Realm is a place where the strong prey on the weak and only the fittest survive. Here, being weak is the biggest mistake. Don't think too highly of yourself!"

Chapter 360: He's afraid he might accidentally kill you.

Meanwhile, Li Moxuan and Jiang Ciyou arrived at the lair of the Earthly Fiend Mercenary Group—Xiongya Ridge.

The mountains here resemble the teeth of ferocious beasts, hence the name. The Earthly Fiend Mercenary Group is the overlord of this area.

"Should we just storm in?"

Jiang Ciyou observed the situation at the sentry post and asked Li Moxuan beside her.

"No need, just scare them enough..."

Li Moxuan drew his Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword, his eyes narrowing. "Anxi Army, listen to my command!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the ground around him began to shake as if an earthquake had struck, and tens of thousands of Anxi soldiers crawled out from underground.

Of all the troops under Li Moxuan's command, only the Anxi Army was best suited for fighting in such mountainous terrain. It was just a pity that Gao Xianzhi, known as the "King of the Mountains," was not there to lead the army...

Jiang Ciyou looked surprised. "So many spirits... are you really not from the Underworld?"

"No, but I'm afraid these people won't believe it..."

This commotion naturally attracted the attention of Liang Shan, the second-in-command on Fierce Fang Ridge. "What's going on outside?"

"Boss Liang, something's wrong! A huge army of undead has appeared outside!"

Liang Shan frowned. "An army of the dead? Could they be from the underworld? What are they doing here?"

"I do not know!"

"Come with me outside and take a look!"

"Yes……"

Liang Shan quickly led his followers to the front of the Anxi army's formation and glanced at Li Moxuan and Jiang Ciyou.

One is at the fifth level of the Creation Realm, and the other's level is unclear, but it should be higher than his own. Coupled with this densely packed army of undead beings from the Forging Realm, his side definitely can't withstand it...

After understanding the difference in their strength, Liang Shan bowed to Jiang Ciyou, who had the highest cultivation level, and asked, "You must be from the Underworld, right? May I ask why you have come to my Fierce Fang Ridge?"

Jiang Ciyou coughed lightly, "You've asked the wrong person, he's the one in charge..."

This guy is two minor realms lower than me, yet he's in charge. He's probably the son of some immortal old monster from the Underworld...

After imagining Li Moxuan's background, Liang Shan respectfully asked him, "May I ask what brings you here with so many people?"

Isn't it obvious?

Li Moxuan raised his hand, and tens of thousands of Anxi soldiers behind him raised their bows and nocked arrows. This completely baffled Liangshan. What was going on? Was the Underworld going to attack their Earthly Fiend Mercenary Group?

"Wait a minute, our leader responded to your call to attack the Tang Clan. Aren't you going a bit too far?"

Liang Shan tried to persuade Li Moxuan to stop, but to no avail. With a wave of Li Moxuan's hand, a dense rain of arrows poured down...

"Damn, have these guys in the Underworld lost their minds?"

Liang Shan hurriedly summoned his guardian deity, "Red Boy, stop them!"

A red-haired boy of eight or nine years old appeared behind him. He wore a golden collar around his neck, a red silk bib, and golden rings on his hands and feet. He was none other than the Holy Infant King, Red Boy.

Red Boy took a deep breath, and a burst of blazing Samadhi Fire spewed from his mouth, the fire wave burning all the incoming arrows to ashes.

He pointed his eighteen-foot-long fire-tipped spear at Li Moxuan, a mischievous smirk playing on his lips. "So, you want to challenge our mountain stronghold?"

Is this Red Boy?

If Liang Shan hadn't told me, I would have thought he was Nezha! They both looked like children, both wielded fire-tipped spears, and both used Samadhi Fire...

"Red Boy, wait a minute..."

Liang Shan stepped forward, "We don't know where we offended you, sir. Please forgive us. We will definitely come to apologize in person when our leader returns..."

With their strength, going to war with the Underworld would be like throwing an egg against a rock. It's better to buy time first and wait until Chen returns to find out the situation before making a decision.

Without saying much, Li Moxuan stepped into the form of the Purple Star Emperor - Lord of the Underworld. Time and space froze for a moment, and he instantly appeared behind Liang Shan, slashing his arm with a sword...

"They actually launched a sneak attack?!"

Once he regained his senses, Red Boy unleashed a burst of Samadhi True Fire, forcing Li Moxuan back. He then brandished his eighteen-foot-long Fire-tipped Spear and engaged Li Moxuan in battle.

"Boss Liang, are you alright?"

Several underlings hurriedly helped Liang Shan up. At this moment, Liang Shan realized that this group had no intention of stopping; they wanted to wipe them out...

"Contact Yu Chen immediately! The Underworld is about to wipe us out. Tell him to bring his men back to support us!"

"Yes!"

One of the underlings had just produced the Divine Decree when it was shattered by a single whip. Jiang Ciyou, holding the Hundred Herbs Whip, said, "Sorry, but I won't let you succeed!"

She didn't intend to summon the guardian deity. Red Boy was held up by Li Moxuan, and the remaining little Karami didn't need the guardian deity's help at all...

"Let me show you this trick!"

Jiang Ciyou's Hundred Herbs Whip turned purple and plunged into the ground. Immediately afterwards, a large group of purple poisonous vines sprang up from the ground and attacked the Liangshan group.
