CHAPTER 291: CHAPTER 291: BETWEEN BEING AGGRIEVED AND BEING ANGRY, CHOOSING TO SUFFER IN SILENCE

Being threatened is a very unpleasant thing.

Therefore, between being aggrieved and being angry, the King of Slaughter chose to be aggrievedly angry.

There was no other way. An existence like Shen An was truly special, unrestricted by the rules of this place, leaving people helpless.

The black-veiled woman who had brought Shen An was now completely frozen. The King of Slaughter, who was as powerful as a god in her heart, had actually been threatened by an outsider and had even accepted it with his nose held.

At the same time, when Shen An had used that heaven-shaking sword strike just now, Tang Hao’s expression, who was hiding his figure in the small town, also changed abruptly.

It wasn’t that this power was so strong it made him speechless. He, a certain someone named Tang, considered himself to have been a few notches stronger than this one sword strike in his heyday.

Of course, now that his hand was broken, it would affect the exertion of his strength, so it was better not to mention it.

What truly shocked him was that someone could actually use their full soul skills in a place like the Slaughter City.

As far as he knew, in the current world, besides him and that female Pope, no one could use their full strength in the Slaughter City. It was an inescapable prison.

Tang Hao’s face was uncertain. He couldn’t figure it out. He really couldn’t figure it out.

"This is bad, Xiao San," Tang Hao’s thoughts changed again.

He and his son had a great enmity with Spirit Hall. What if he was seen by that person from Spirit Hall? Wouldn’t his son, who had the posture of becoming a god, have to die with regret in the Slaughter City?

Disregarding the risk of being discovered, Tang Hao’s figure instantly disappeared from his original spot. The next moment, he appeared at the nameless tavern.

Tom, who was guarding outside alone, had at this time taken off his mask to get some air, and happened to meet Tang Hao’s four eyes.

’How is he (it) here??!’

Tang Hao was anxious to protect his son, but he also hated Shen An and Tom so much his teeth itched. The戾气 (lìqì - baleful/hostile energy) in his heart surged. I can’t beat a Spirit Hall Elder, but can’t I beat a common cat?

A black light flashed, and the huge Clear Sky Hammer suddenly appeared in his hand.

The next second, Tom saw with terror the hammerhead in his eyes growing larger and larger.

Boom!!!

A powerful airwave burst out, actually breaking this small tavern into four or five pieces.

Tom, sitting in the house, a hammer coming for his head, was directly turned into a meteor and sent flying.

Tom, flying towards the sky, showed an angry expression. You really think an honest cat is easy to bully?

Coincidentally, Tom saw a cloud beside him. He directly grabbed it with both hands, pulling himself and the cloud up another few meters. Finally, he miraculously and slowly came to a stop.

Under normal circumstances, shouldn’t a cat in the sky fall down? But Tom was different. His two hands came together and then expanded outwards. His two legs kicked, as if swimming.

Bit by bit, at a fixed speed, he slowly swam from above the clouds back to his original spot.

A flame of anger burned in Tom’s eyes. He silently took out a hammer with "100T" carved on it and sat down by the entrance of the cave. He was going to wait for his prey!

At this time, the wise Tang San had long since found a place to hide. That hundred-meter-long sword light, he really didn’t want it to land on him.

"Let’s go. Hu Liena, you and your subordinate go and get familiar with the rules of the Slaughter City. You, take me to see the Hell Road."

The King of Slaughter walked out of the nearly collapsed hall without a word.

Forget it, forget it. Originally, I didn’t want people to pass through the Hell Road precisely to prevent them from obtaining the ability to act wantonly in the Slaughter City.

But this person before me is already unrestricted. If he wants to brave it, then let him brave it. Besides, he is helpless.

"Your Highness, the Saintess, then my mission on this trip can be considered complete. Why don’t you go and train with them?" Shen An said.

Hu Liena was somewhat hesitant to speak. If there was a chance to take a shortcut, who would want to struggle and work hard?

The purpose of coming to the Slaughter City was to obtain the qualification for the Hell Road, so as to brave it and obtain the Slaughter God Domain.

But how difficult was it to win a hundred consecutive victories? A slight carelessness and one’s life and dao would be extinguished. And the Hell Road after a hundred victories was even more so a place of almost certain death.

Yes, she, Hu Liena, had come with the mentality of succeeding or dying in the attempt. But the problem was, there was no shortcut to take before.

Follow Elder Yan, and I can just lie flat in happiness.

Bibi Dong still had to consider the overall situation. If she really threatened the King of Slaughter, he would surely not dare. But Yan Chixia was different. The King of Slaughter didn’t know his background and was truly afraid he would act recklessly.

The King of Slaughter’s perception was extremely sharp. He immediately said with a black face, "No. At most, I will open the Hell Road for you alone. If everyone is like you, how can my Slaughter City continue to operate?"

"The existence of the Slaughter City is of great benefit to the continent. Without this prison of mine that only takes in and never lets out, the situation outside would be a few points more chaotic. If you press me any further, I will fight you to the death, fish and net broken."

Shen An gave Hu Liena a helpless look, then said with a smile, "Old Slaughter, you underestimate me too much. I am very much one to abide by the rules. Naturally, I will not make things difficult for you."

The King of Slaughter instantly laughed, with anger. This person’s skin is really thick. And he’s not making things difficult for him?

If not for this exquisite cultivation, he would surely flay him alive.

"Hmm?" The King of Slaughter sensed the Slaughter God entering the Slaughter City. He glanced at Shen An without a change in expression. To kill with a borrowed knife, to drive out a wolf with a tiger—such strategies instantly appeared in his mind.

This kind of restless, dangerous element, if one of them could be killed in a fight, that would be fine. Although he didn’t leave the Slaughter City, he was still clear about the dirty business between Tang Hao and Spirit Hall.

The more he thought about it, the more feasible it seemed. It was just that it had to be hidden, and no one could suspect him. But he had to wait for an opportunity. If there was no opportunity, he would rather give up.

This King of Slaughter, although very strong, was excessively prudent.

The woman in the black veil took Hu Liena away. Shen An followed the King of Slaughter and walked into the inner city.

The moment he entered the inner city, he felt a sense of luxury and madness. Colorful lights of various colors could be seen everywhere.

Within the inner city, it was extremely chaotic. Everywhere there was excited laughter, painful cries. Evil could be seen everywhere.

It was just that when the King of Slaughter stepped in, all the sounds stopped. No one did not recognize this King.

Here, the King of Slaughter was a true god!

The King of Slaughter did not care about the actions of these people, but instead continued to lead Shen An to a circular building, or rather, a conical building—the Hell Slaughtering Fields.

At this time, a battle in the Hell Slaughtering Fields had just ended. And with the arrival of the King of Slaughter, the atmosphere was raised to the extreme.

"King of Slaughter! King of Slaughter! King of Slaughter!" the degenerates let out crazy shouts. Even if their throats were hoarse, they had no intention of stopping.

’Interesting. No wonder this King of Slaughter is so concerned with the maintenance of the Slaughter City,’ Shen An thought to himself.

Since one can enjoy all the sensual pleasures here, why go to the outside world? Here, the King of Slaughter is the absolute king. But placed on the entire continent, it’s different.

Of course, the King of Slaughter here and Tang Chen could not be equated.

The King of Slaughter looked around at the degenerates and said slowly, "Today, this King wishes to open the Hell Road. You will all be witnesses. Cheer to your hearts’ content!"

As he spoke, one after another of faint red halos were released from the King of Slaughter’s body. This was not killing intent, but an extremely evil aura, a coldness that would make one’s bone marrow freeze.

Shen An was unconcerned. This level had no effect on him at all. On the contrary, he watched this scene with great interest.

The evil, cold red ripples slowly spread out, covering the entire field in just a few blinks of an eye.

The degenerates sitting in the audience were all unusually excited. They all hoped to see what the Hell Road looked like when it opened. But little did they know that their own lives were about to come to an end.

One must know that in the Slaughter City, besides the Slaughter God and the King of Slaughter, no one had ever seen what the Hell Road looked like when it opened.

Because, all those who had witnessed it had, without exception, all become sacrifices for the opening of the Hell Road.

The originally crazy, cheering degenerates all quieted down as the red light descended. The eyes of every one of them became dazed, and then from dazed, they turned a blood-red color.

Before long, the red light had completely enveloped the entire Hell Slaughtering Fields. Painful, miserable cries continuously came from the audience, growing higher and higher, wailing more and more.

Those degenerates were as if they had gone mad, continuously scratching their own bodies. In those one after another of miserable cries was also contained an extremely excited pleasure, as if they had obtained infinite joy from it.

Flesh rolled back, blood splattered. Their five organs and six viscera were all pulled out from their bodies. It was only at the end of their lives that this madness stopped.

Shen An felt a little uncomfortable smelling the pungent bloody smell. However, he was without sorrow or joy. Those who could enter here were, without exception, not a single good thing. He naturally would not feel any so-called pity.

Countless amounts of blood splattered on the ground began to converge. Large amounts of blood were like one after another of small streams, flowing down the inconspicuous small pipes under the audience seats towards the center of the slaughtering field.

Seeing Shen An frown slightly, the King of Slaughter said in a deep voice, "To be able to become a sacrifice for the opening of the Hell Road is their honor."

"I don’t care about their life or death," Shen An said indifferently.

At this time, only Shen An and the King of Slaughter were left alive in the entire field.

Shen An looked at the blood-red pattern that had converged on the ground. It was similar to a bird-like creature, and also somewhat like a bat.

"Well then, I wish you good luck. After you pass through the Hell Road and obtain the Slaughter God Domain, I do not wish for you to come and disturb the Slaughter City again."

"I have no desire to come to this ghostly place," Shen An continued to look at the pattern. He felt an inexplicable energy.

Suddenly, the eyes of the bat suddenly lit up. Shen An’s spiritual power was continuously impacted, but it was as stable as a monolith. A huge red light shot up to the sky, enveloping his body within.

Under the devouring of the blood-red color, everything around became illusory. A layer of a sword qi barrier swirled around Shen An’s body, protecting him, preventing the energy in this blood light from violating him.

The King of Slaughter’s gaze flickered. To be safe and sound without a murderous aura, and for his spiritual power not to be shaken, he was truly strong in all aspects. He quietly put away his intention of a sneak attack.

Accompanied by a violent tremor, Shen An clearly felt the migration of space. He then arrived at a circular platform with a diameter of about five meters.

He looked around. Everything around was a faint blood-red color. Besides the platform under his feet, it was actually a bottomless abyss.

After Shen An disappeared, the King of Slaughter said to the empty Hell Slaughtering Fields, "Welcome, Slaughter God, to the Slaughter City."

"However, you seem a little weak."

He stuck out his scarlet tongue and licked his pale lips, his eyes sparkling with the light of a wild beast.
