927. The Soul Palace's Plot
If the Soul Hall were to actually accomplish something within the Flower Sect, she would be a sinner to the entire sect. At this moment, Hua Jin's Dou Zun-level aura was fully revealed. The anger of being deceived and the guilt she felt towards the Flower Sect made her want to capture the Demon Flower Evil Lord right then and there!
"You're actually a spy for the Soul Palace!"
Hearing this, the Demon Flower Evil Lord not only didn't refute it, but instead smiled wickedly and said, "Sect Leader Hua Jin, don't put it so harshly. A wise person knows when to yield. Everyone in Zhongzhou is in danger now. I've helped the Flower Sect find the Soul Palace as a powerful backer, and it will also allow you to secure your position as Sect Leader. What's wrong with that?"
Upon hearing this, Hua Jin realized that she had been completely used by the Demon Flower Evil Lord, and was preparing to take drastic measures to capture him.
But then, a ball of black energy appeared in the palm of the Demon Flower Evil Lord. The black energy churned and rolled, dark and gloomy, clearly a technique of the Soul Palace. With a gentle squeeze, a powerful battle aura connected to Hua Jin's body, and a nauseatingly eerie light emanated from Hua Jin's heart.
The next moment, Hua Jin clearly felt a sharp pain in her chest. The pain was so intense that veins bulged on her forehead and cold sweat poured down her face. Forget about capturing the Demon Flower Evil Lord; Hua Jin couldn't even stand up and fell to the ground.
"Don't be hasty, Sect Master Hua Jin. You now possess the Soul Palace's secret technique. If you try to fight me, you'll die instantly!"
The Demon Flower Evil Lord then walked up to Hua Jin, lifted her chin with one hand, and, seeing her pained expression, revealed a triumphant smile, saying, "I didn't expect you to still have some unnecessary loyalty to the Flower Sect. Too bad it's too late. Submitting to the Soul Palace now is the best outcome for you!"
The Demon Flower Evil Lord immediately released his grip, and Hua Jin slumped to the ground. She guessed how she acquired the Soul Palace techniques from him; he had used his battle qi when she had relations with him. At the time, she only felt a surge of pleasure and didn't pay much attention, but she never expected that she would already be under his control.
Now she doesn't even have the ability to fight him anymore, and betraying the Flower Sect has become an obvious reality. If she wants to continue living, it seems that cooperating with the Soul Palace is the only option she can choose.
Thinking that she had listened to the words of the Evil Flower Lord because of her desire for the position of sect leader of the Flower Sect, and that she had now fallen into his trap, Hua Jin felt a sense of powerlessness and deep guilt, and tears welled up in her eyes.
The Demon Flower Evil Lord, however, had no interest in these matters. He only wanted to contact the lord of the Soul Palace as soon as possible. However, after he crushed the spatial jade originally used for communication, there was no reaction at all.
He was suddenly in a great hurry. Just as he was about to go out, a powerful aura of battle energy appeared in front of him.
When the Demon Flower Evil Lord looked up, he was surprised to see that it was actually that lord from the Soul Palace!
Just as I was about to inform him that the situation had changed, he suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
Upon seeing this, the Demon Flower Evil Lord immediately smiled and bowed, saying, "Greetings, Lord Palace Master. I originally intended to inform you of the situation at the Flower Sect, as that extremely despicable Xiao Yan has also arrived there. I did not expect you to arrive so quickly."
The man waved his hand dismissively and replied, "Xiao Yan's appearance was unexpected; it's not your fault. But have you completed the task I assigned you?"
Upon hearing this, the Demon Flower Evil Lord nodded vigorously, immediately revealing a fawning smile as he replied, "Part of it is already complete. Originally, I planned to have Hua Jin completely open the passage for you after controlling her. As for the two Dou Sheng-level combatants of the Flower Sect, they have always lived in seclusion in a remote part of the Flower Sect. I didn't do it myself; I just had Hua Jin do it for me, modifying the Flower Sect's protective formation. The fact that you were able to arrive here smoothly today must mean that the mountain-protecting formation didn't work."
The Demon Flower Lord was overjoyed. The Flower Sect's grand formation was not easy to break, and it had been breached almost without any fanfare. He must have made a significant contribution. As for Hua Jin, she was now of little use except as a puppet.
The Demon Flower Evil Lord's original backer, the Heavenly Nether Sect, has now completely lost its future thanks to the Spirit Clan. If he can withdraw in time and climb back into the Soul Palace this time, his future will still be bright!
If the Lord of the Soul Palace is in a good mood and allows me to take control of the Flower Sect, which is full of beautiful women, then I will have endless good days ahead.
For a moment, the thoughts in the mind of the Demon Flower Evil Lord also made him feel extremely happy.
But then the man suddenly asked, "Is that all? What about the other things I instructed?"
Upon hearing this, the Demon Flower Evil Lord frowned and quickly tried to recall what the Soul Palace official was talking about, as he had no recollection of anything else.
However, he couldn't answer so bluntly, so he continued to bow his head and ask, "This humble servant is dull-witted and does not know which matter you are referring to, sir?"
"Think about it carefully yourself, my patience is limited!" There was already a hint of anger in the man's tone.
The Demon Flower Lord was so frightened that he immediately knelt down and asked, "This humble servant truly cannot recall it. Please give me your instructions, my lord, and I will do it immediately!"
"Yeah?"
The Demon Flower Evil Lord also felt a little strange upon hearing this voice: Could it be my imagination? Why does it feel like the master's voice has changed?
Then a flash of fire appeared, and the overwhelming pressure of battle aura and soul power simultaneously bombarded him.
The intense heat and stinging pain momentarily overwhelmed the Demon Flower Evil Lord's mind, preventing him from calmly considering what was happening. He was utterly bewildered as to why this great figure from the Soul Palace would suddenly attack him.
Standing before him wasn't some powerful figure from the Soul Hall, but Xiao Yan, who had used the Soul Control Puppet Technique. Xiao Yan could now easily control anyone whose soul wasn't at the Heavenly Realm level, making it extremely convenient in the current situation. Therefore, he successfully extracted the information he wanted from the Demon Flower Evil Lord. Fairy Hua's judgment was correct; this person was indeed backed by the Soul Hall.
However, upon seeing the Demon Flower Evil Lord, who was now collapsed unconscious on the ground after his heavy blow, Xiao Yan did not immediately kill him. Instead, he gazed at the man's figure thoughtfully. Suddenly, an idea came to him: to take advantage of the situation as the Soul Palace intended to attack the Flower Sect.
"I'll spare your life for now, and deal with you later!"
