567: Get the answer and unravel the mystery

“It’s your turn to die!”

Xie Weilou took out a bottle of pills, directly swallowed them whole, and his aura recovered a bit.

He gripped the blood-colored heavy sword tightly and instantly slashed towards Chongming Tower.

Boom!

The blood-colored heavy sword slashed Chongming Tower’s body, and Chongming Tower’s body was immediately blasted into a bloody mist, leaving only a soul body.

This soul body fled into the nearby head and immediately rushed into the distance, trying to escape.

Xie Weilou stretched out his large hand and grabbed the head, saying indifferently, “You can’t win, and you still want to escape?”

Chongming Tower said in horror, “Xie Weilou, don’t make a mistake. My Nine Heavens Tower has a huge background that you can’t afford to provoke…”

Boom!

Xie Weilou squeezed hard, directly crushing Chongming Tower’s head. His eyes were cold as he said, “Before, I saw you still had some arrogance. Now you’re begging for mercy and threatening?”

Saying that, he waved his sleeve and directly threw Chongming Tower’s soul into his storage ring. The ten thousand souls banner instantly devoured it.

“Cough, cough!”

After doing all this, Xie Weilou’s body trembled, and a mouthful of golden blood spurted out. The demonic energy on his body quickly dissipated, and his expression was extremely fatigued.

He put away the blood-colored heavy sword, glanced around, and collected a storage ring, as well as the distant Flowing Light Pagoda and Heaven’s End Sword Box.

“Phew!”

Xie Weilou exhaled a mouthful of turbid air and quickly flew away.

The answer he wanted to know still had to be sought from Chongming Tower’s soul.

As for Yan Wugou, he did not sense the other party’s aura during this trip to Dark City. Perhaps Chongming Tower’s soul could also provide an answer.

......

Seven Nights Snow.

“Tower Lord…”

Snow Consort and the two other women saw Xie Weilou injured, and their faces changed, revealing panic in their eyes.

Xie Weilou waved his hand and said, “It’s nothing! Just a minor injury. I need to go into seclusion for a few days. The Nine Heavens Tower has been destroyed, and Chongming Tower has been killed by me. Do not disturb me in the coming days.”

After speaking, he entered a room.

Snow Consort glanced at Snow Rou, with shock in her eyes. The Tower Lord actually killed Chongming Tower?

That was a Half-step Cavern Profound Realm expert, yet the Tower Lord was able to suppress and kill him. He was truly terrifying.

“The Tower Lord is too strong.”

Snow Rou’s face was full of admiration.

So young, yet possessing such heaven-defying strength, a figure like the Tower Lord would surely go further in the future, and this Blood Domain would not be able to restrain him.

“Yes! He’s truly too strong.”

Nan Zhiyi also had a face full of awe. How powerful was the Nine Heavens Tower? She never expected it to be destroyed by the Tower Lord. It was simply terrifying.

Snow Consort took a deep breath: “Guard this place well and protect the Tower Lord!”

“Mm!”

Snow Rou and Nan Zhiyi nodded gently.

In a flash.

Seven days passed.

Inside the room.

Xie Weilou’s injuries had recovered, and he inspected his body.

Although he had suffered a severe injury during the previous battle, his cultivation had improved significantly after recovering.

After confirming that his body was fine, Xie Weilou summoned the ten thousand souls banner and pulled Chongming Tower’s soul out.

“You… what are you going to do?”

Chongming Tower’s soul appeared extremely terrified.

Xie Weilou said indifferently, “Naturally, soul-searching.”

Chongming Tower said in horror, “Xie Weilou, there are Restriction in my soul. If you forcibly search my soul, I will be annihilated, and you will get nothing. If you want to know anything, I can tell you…”

Xie Weilou ignored him and immediately began soul-searching.

Buzz!

As soon as he began soul-searching, he discovered a terrifying Forbidden Art appearing deep within Chongming Tower’s soul, attempting to destroy the other party’s soul.

“There really are Restriction.”

Xie Weilou raised an eyebrow. These Restriction were extremely profound, and with his Restriction strength, he found them difficult to break.

He immediately brought Chongming Tower’s soul into the ten thousand souls banner, and that Forbidden Art was also instantly suppressed a bit.

Xie Weilou formed a hand seal, and the soul banner erupted with a powerful force, frantically refining Chongming Tower’s soul.

This powerful soul body could not be let go. Letting it become a part of the ten thousand souls banner was a good choice.

However, the memories obtained from a refined soul were not complete. Compared to getting nothing at all, obtaining partial memories was acceptable.

“Xie Weilou… spare me… ah…”

Chongming Tower’s soul let out a series of shrill screams, constantly begging for mercy.

Xie Weilou’s expression was indifferent and unmoved. He continued to activate the ten thousand souls banner, refining the other party’s soul.

Half an hour later.

The screams stopped. Chongming Tower’s soul was completely refined and became a part of the ten thousand souls banner. At this moment, it was the most powerful within the ten thousand souls banner.

Xie Weilou closed his eyes, carefully searching the other party’s memories.

Half an incense stick later.

Xie Weilou obtained a lot of useful information and also happened to know the answer he wanted.

It was just that this answer made him frown, as if he had peeled an egg only to find another egg inside.

According to Chongming Tower’s soul memory, the Nine Heavens Tower had actually acted against the Zhenxi Marquis Manor on orders from above.

Above the Nine Heavens Tower, there was a mysterious force called the Heavenly Hall.

The Heavenly Hall was not in this world. It was an extremely vast assassin organization with influence spread across the world, mysterious and unpredictable. Chongming Tower was just a small figure within the Heavenly Hall.

Previously, Chongming Tower had received an order from a mysterious high-ranking figure in the Heavenly Hall to deal with the Zhenxi Marquis Manor.

But he was also worried about the existence of the Great Xia Holy Academy and dared not rashly intrude into Great Xia, so he let someone else handle the matter. Yan Wugou happened to be a suitable candidate.

Regarding the specific information about the Heavenly Hall, Chongming Tower’s memory was incomplete and did not contain much.

Why the Heavenly Hall wanted to act against the Zhenxi Marquis Manor, Chongming Tower was also completely ignorant. The incomplete soul did not provide many answers.

Besides that, he did get a clue about Yan Wugou.

That guy seemed to have a very strong premonition of danger. Feeling that something was wrong, he had already left the Nine Heavens Tower one step ahead and seemed to have gone to Godly Gun City in the Blood Domain.

“Heavenly Hall…”

Xie Weilou showed a contemplative expression.

He originally thought that by taking down Chongming Tower, he would know the final answer. Now it seemed he had thought too much. This was a process of unraveling things bit by bit, and it would take time.

“Forget it! It’s still the same saying, take it one step at a time. This Heavenly Hall is not simple, and that terrifying blood talisman also came from the Heavenly Hall. Before I have full confidence, I must be cautious.”

Xie Weilou thought to himself. The blood talisman Chongming Tower had pulled out earlier had caused him some trouble.

Dealing with just one Chongming Tower had already taken a great deal of effort. If a true expert from the Heavenly Hall were to appear, how terrifying would that be?

He was pondering a question: his third uncle did not intervene in the Zhenxi Marquis Manor incident. Was he wary of this mysterious Heavenly Hall? Or did he have other plans?

For a moment, he was also a bit confused. It seemed he still had to keep moving forward.

“……”

After a brief contemplation, Xie Weilou got up and left the room.

“Greetings, Tower Lord!”

Snow Consort and the two other women saw Xie Weilou come out and quickly bowed, also breathing a sigh of relief in their hearts. It seemed the Tower Lord’s injuries had recovered.

In seven days, the news of the Nine Heavens Tower’s destruction spread throughout the entire Blood Domain, causing immense fear among its various forces. The Blood Domain was now somewhat changed.

Xie Weilou smiled and nodded at the three women, then looked at Nan Zhiyi: “I need to go to Godly Gun City. Will you accompany me?”

Nan Zhiyi bowed: “Yes, Tower Lord!”
