Chapter 315: Honorable Elders of the Hall of Souls

An old man in a red robe took a glance at the information on the back and furrowed his brows.

"According to the information on the paper, this person is only a Dou Ancestor. Although his talent is outstanding, is it really necessary for all four of us Honorable Elders to take action?"

The others nodded in agreement. In their view, even deploying one Honorable Elder was already a significant display of power towards their opponent. What was the point of sending four people?

After all, they were all renowned figures in the Central Plains, and naturally, they still had some face to maintain.

"Hmph! This is the safest approach. If I didn't have other matters to attend to, I would go there myself. Stop wasting time. If you fail the mission, you know the consequences!"

The Old Ghost Zhai Xing snorted coldly and spoke firmly.

"This..."

The four individuals exchanged glances and reluctantly nodded.

"Alright, we will bring him back."

...

Several days later, the Honorable Elders of the Hall of Souls, who had taken on the mission, appeared near the Falling Thunder Mountain Range.

"Have you searched the area thoroughly?"

"We have, but we haven't seen any trace of the kid!"

"Sigh, could he have left?"

"I think he's in the Falling Thunder Mountain Range, but the lightning power there is dense and not easy to search."

The four Honorable Elders discussed in a huddle, their brows furrowed in concern.

After accepting the mission, they had come here directly without even bringing any subordinates, in order to resolve the battle quickly.

They searched all the nearby cities and towns. But unexpectedly, they hadn't even seen a shadow of the target.

"Let's go into the Falling Thunder Mountain Range and have a look. If we really can't find him, the Hall Master won't blame us. It's their fault for not doing their intelligence work properly," said a blue-haired old man in a black robe.

"Let's follow Qing Hai's lead."

The others nodded in agreement and flew towards the distant gray-white mountain range that stretched endlessly.

...

Rumble!

A beautiful woman who was talking to someone suddenly looked up and gazed towards the Falling Thunder Mountain Range.

"Interesting, it seems that the lightning in the Falling Thunder Mountain Range is being attracted by something."

"Ah?" The girl she was talking to was surprised by her words.

"Ying'er, put aside the matter of finding the Lightning Beast for today. I need to investigate the unusual activity in the Falling Thunder Mountain Range," the beautiful woman said.

After speaking, she disappeared into thin air, leaving the stunned girl behind.

Apart from the beautiful woman, many others also noticed the disturbance in the Falling Thunder Mountain Range, but not many dared to investigate as she did.

The reason was naturally that not everyone had the strength to enter the depths of the violent Falling Thunder Mountain Range. What if they rushed in and were struck to death?

...

A few minutes later, the four Honorable Elders of the Hall of Souls arrived at the depths of the Falling Thunder Mountain Range and gathered together when they found the center of the anomaly.

They immediately spotted two golden puppets bathed in lightning, as well as Xiao Ming and Venerable Tian Huo below the puppets.

"Is that Xiao Ming? Who's the old man next to him? I can't see through him!" Qing Hai narrowed his eyes and asked.

"That old man is very powerful!"

"There's no information on him. He must be a Dou Venerate recruited by Xiao Ming. Haha, an eighth-tier alchemist really has some tricks up his sleeve. If there weren't four of us, we wouldn't be able to deal with him today," said the red-robed elder.

In fact, when the Honorable Elders found Xiao Ming, he and Venerable Tian Huo also spotted them.

The four elders appeared suddenly, and there was no energy emanating from their bodies. However, at the moment of their appearance, the space around them seemed to distort.

"Xiao Ming, be careful. These four are probably not good people." Yao Tian Huo's expression became unusually serious.

"What's their strength?" Xiao Ming frowned and asked.

Because he had changed his mind and came to the Falling Thunder Mountain Range instead of the Wind Lightning Mountain Range, he had not simulated this scene before.

"A one-star, two-star, and two three-star Dou Venerates."

"Can you hold off three of them?"

"I don't have a suitable flame right now. If you mean those three who are above two-star, it may be a bit difficult." Yao Tian Huo did not make a boastful promise. His specialty was playing with flames. If he had an appropriate Heavenly Flame and enough good beast flames, he would not be afraid of the four together, let alone three.

But for now, he was only an ordinary five-star Dou Venerate and the highest level of flame in his hand was only a seventh-rank beast flame. If they really fought, two Dou Venerates at the three-star level would be enough to hold him back.

"But don't worry, If I take you away. They won't be able to stop me." This chapter made its debut appearance via N0v3lB1n.
