60: Returning Soul Rain

"Your Excellency, since you have already obtained what you wanted, please leave!"

At this moment, Bai He only wanted to send them away as quickly as possible.

To resolve this matter sooner.

"Hehe!"

Ye Yuaner's gaze swept over the dozens of people present, as well as the Speed Clan members watching from afar; although they hid it well, those people were all holding weapons.

Every person's eyes were filled with anger and resentment, along with a bit of grumbling toward the Clan Chief.

However, when these eyes saw Ye Yuaner looking over, they all lowered their heads in panic, their legs trembling slightly.

"Keep your thoughts to yourselves. Next time we meet, I won't be so polite!" Ye Yuaner grabbed Su Wen and walked toward the gate. Su Wen was startled: "Aunt Ye?"

"Shh, let them live for ten more breaths!"

Ye Yuaner's voice transmitted into his ears, and she soon disappeared from the Speed Clan with Su Wen.

Seeing that they had truly left, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, feeling as if they had survived a disaster.

At the same time, a towering rage rose within each of them.

"Going too far, simply going too far... That damned bitch!"

"That thieving woman better not fall into my hands, or I'll definitely make her do backflips."

"What is this person's origin exactly? Do they not fear the wrath of the Clear Sky Sect?"

"Clan Chief, what is the Crystal Blood Dragon Ginseng? When did our clan have such a treasure?"

Several Elders of the Speed Clan surrounded Bai He, talking all at once.

Bai He also had a face full of grievance, feeling a headache over how to appease these clansmen when a feather suddenly drifted down from above the Speed Clan's territory.

The feather was fiery red, burning with a bit of flame. Upon landing, it generated high heat with the feather as the center.

"The sky."

Someone suddenly warned.

Everyone subconsciously looked up at the sky. Dense Phoenix feathers drifted down like raindrops, painting the entire sky with red clouds and even reflecting a fiery red glow on the ground.

"There are Soul Power fluctuations!"

Bai He sensed something was wrong, and a sense of crisis spontaneously arose.

But before he could prepare, Ye Yuaner had already appeared in the sky, a cold smile on her lips:

"Everyone, we meet again!"

Ye Yuaner's nine spirit rings were exceptionally conspicuous in the sky, especially the moment the red spirit ring lit up; everyone turned pale, despair growing in their hearts.

"Ninth Spirit Ability..."

Ye Yuaner's fair hand lightly brushed past her chin, her lips whispering a murmur of death: "Phoenix: World Incineration!"

Buzz!

All the Phoenix feathers in the sky emitted a scorching light.

"Not good, run!"

Alarm bells rang in Bai He's heart. He entered his Martial Soul True Body and tried to evacuate the area at top speed.

Shrouded by a massive shadow of death, he couldn't even care for his clansmen.

After being warned by the Clan Chief, the Speed Clan members reacted and fled in all directions.

The next moment.

The Phoenix feathers radiated brilliant light and exploded in an instant. Blazing flames formed a sea of high-temperature fire at a terrifying speed, instantly swallowing those who tried to flee before they could even let out a scream.

The chain explosions from the dense feathers formed a giant mushroom cloud, with the scorching heat piercing thousands of meters into the clouds.

Bursts of extremely violent energy erupted from the sea of fire, sweeping in all directions like a storm, turning everything in its path to ash.

Su Wen stood on a high mountain, clicking his tongue as he watched the explosion that looked like a work of art.

"This is Pyroblast!"

...Everything settled, the flames dissipated, and the area for several thousand meters around had already been turned to ash. The ground was charred black, and the temperature remained extremely high.

The Speed Clan's territory had already become a field of ruins.

Only a small portion of the clansmen's corpses could still be seen; the rest had all been turned to ash.

Su Wen spotted Bai He and several Speed Clan Elders lying on the scorched earth.

Coming closer, he could feel a glimmer of life remaining.

Following Su Wen's wishes, Ye Yuaner had intentionally spared their lives.

Ye Yuaner landed nearby, her eyes looking around with satisfaction.

"The Soul Power consumption was quite high, but it's still within an acceptable range!"

"Aunt Ye is so amazing!"

Su Wen praised.

Ye Yuaner's lips curled up slightly, and she crossed her arms over her chest.

She looked a bit proud.

"Xiao Wen, why keep them alive?"

Ye Yuaner asked curiously, and the latter revealed a mysterious smile.

Buzz!

Su Wen's Wedding Dress Ghost Emperor Martial Soul appeared.

One yellow, one purple, one black.

Three spirit rings that surpassed ordinary people also appeared.

Under Ye Yuaner's puzzled gaze, the black ten-thousand-year spirit ring lit up.

"Third Soul Skill, Soul Returning Rain!"

The veil on the Wedding Dress Ghost Emperor's head suddenly fluttered without wind, revealing an exquisitely beautiful yet pale face.

Those red pupils glanced at Su Wen.

A tear mixed with bright red blood slid down from her eye.

The tear fell onto her delicate jaw and finally dripped onto the ground.

"Buzz!"

In an instant, a sinister wind rose from all sides, and rain began to fall from the clear sky without any warning.

Every drop of rain was vibrantly bright, as red as fresh blood.

The rain was neither heavy nor light, but the area covered by the rain turned completely dark. The piercing sunlight could not penetrate the rain, and the temperature of the ground scorched by the fire was rapidly dropping.

Ghost Souls drifted one after another in the rain, emitting shrill cries, wails, laughter, and even operatic singing; mixed together, there was no discordance.

"No..."

The lives of Bai He and the others drained away at a visible rate until they were completely devoid of life.

The next moment.

The several people who had originally died suddenly climbed up from the ground.

Only they were no longer as they were before; their features were distorted, there was not a trace of emotion in their pupils, and their cheeks were covered with one rune after another.

Bai He had unexpectedly become a Ghoul, with seven spirit rings beneath his feet.

The first three spirit rings were normal colors, while the last four were black and white.

The other Ghouls were the same; only the first three had normal colors.

"Aunt Ye, don't forget that besides the Domain suppression, my Third Soul Skill also turns any living beings who die in the rain into Ghouls for me to command."

"I wanted to experiment... it seems I've succeeded."

"It's just that they have no emotions, and their range of activity is limited to the rain. When the Ghastly Rain disappears, they will also disappear; only when it rains next time can they appear along with the Ghastly Rain."

Su Wen's words immediately made Ye Yuaner understand why he had kept these people barely alive.

She looked on with some surprise.

Suddenly.

Ye Yuaner spoke with some regret: "If I had known, I would have kept them all. Why didn't you remind me..."

"I didn't think that much either, but the result is very much to my liking. With these Ghouls, the range of my Ghastly Rain has expanded by nearly another hundred meters. I think this should be a Spirit Ability that gets stronger with more Ghouls."

As Su Wen spoke, he stopped the Ghastly Rain. As the rain disappeared, Bai He and the others vanished like Ghost Souls.

"This... does it mean the more people sacrificed, the stronger the Third Soul Skill becomes?"
