Chapter 32 – Guo Dong’s Soul is Shattered

Guo Dong completely ignored Su Ming’s presence. With an expressionless face, he issued the order for the Pseudo-Azure Dragon to break through that final barrier.

Seeing this, Su Ming did not move to stop the Pseudo-Azure Dragon’s actions.

Instead, he concentrated his energy and continuously unleashed various talismans, attacking Guo Dong like a violent storm.

These talismans flew rapidly through the air, bringing with them bursts of whistling sounds, as if they were about to devour Guo Dong.

However, Guo Dong remained exceptionally calm. His figure flickered, easily evading Su Ming’s attacks.

At the same time, when Su Ming’s talismans struck the forest behind Guo Dong, they instantly ignited a raging inferno.

Flames burst forth like furious waves, tightly surrounding Guo Dong.

Despite being engulfed in flames, Guo Dong showed no trace of fear. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, revealing a disdainful smile.

Su Ming: “What are you smiling about?”

Guo Dong: “I’m smiling at how stupid you are, smiling that you didn’t kill me here.”

Su Ming said nothing and continued attacking, until the Pseudo-Azure Dragon finally broke through the passage connecting the ghost domain to the outside world.

Guo Dong looked outside—it was the original battle platform.

“I’m leaving. Goodbye!”

Guo Dong led the Pseudo-Azure Dragon out of the ghost domain. Su Ming smiled a sinister smile. Guess where the Sword Ghost went…

The moment the Pseudo-Azure Dragon poked its head out, the familiar ultimate move, Armor Breaker, appeared again, charging straight at the Pseudo-Azure Dragon.

The passage was small to begin with, difficult to advance or retreat in, and on top of that, they were rushing out of the ghost domain at full speed.

The Pseudo-Azure Dragon took the Sword Ghost’s full-powered strike head-on. Its body was already exhausted, and now it was completely unable to move.

For Su Ming, within the ghost domain, as long as he wanted it, anyone could come and go freely. But if he didn’t want it, whether entering or exiting, you’d have to expend considerable effort.

Su Ming sneered coldly: “Since you’re so eager to get out, I’ll give you a hand.”

With that said, Su Ming unleashed a red support buff, combined with the Blood Soul Ghost’s Blood Claw shots and the Chef Ghost’s Stir-Fry skill, forcibly blasting the Pseudo-Azure Dragon and Guo Dong back to the original world.

The Pseudo-Azure Dragon had completely lost its combat ability, and Guo Dong was severely wounded. Of course, Su Ming’s side wasn’t much better off either.

His spiritual power was almost completely depleted, the Ice Crystal Turtle was gravely injured, the Blood Soul Ghost and Chef Ghost Leader’s wounds had never healed, and the Sword Ghost was in a state of exhaustion.

Guo Dong spat out blood: “I never thought I’d actually fall into your hands.”

Su Ming didn’t waste words with him: “Sword Ghost, Soul Sever, kill him!”

At this moment, everyone was shocked. Su Ming truly killed without any hesitation. The sect master’s heart trembled—was his own son really going to die today?

Concentrating the remaining ghostly qi of the Blood Soul Ghost and the Chef Ghost, the Sword Ghost unleashed his skill, striking directly at Guo Dong’s soul. Even the Pseudo-Azure Dragon couldn’t block it with its body now.

The fierce ghost sword was already upon him. At this moment, countless thoughts flashed through Guo Dong’s mind, but he knew that even if he said surrender now, Su Ming would kill him anyway under the pretext of being unable to retract his strike.

The Black-Robed Man and Su Lin felt the timing was about right—it just depended on whether Guo Dong was willing to summon the True Black Tortoise to withstand the blow.

Guo Dong struggled for a moment, then no longer hesitated. He summoned the True Black Tortoise from his system space. With its physical body, it would definitely be able to withstand this strike.

The sect master flew forward—she knew Guo Dong had already revealed all his trump cards. Once the True Black Tortoise was killed, there were still over a hundred chef ghosts in the ghost domain waiting for Guo Dong.

The Black-Robed Man manipulated Guo Dong to block the sect master. The sect master was startled: “What are you trying to do?”

“Wugou” said expressionlessly: “The question is, what are YOU trying to do?”

The Black-Robed Man simultaneously used spatial ghost arts to transfer the True Black Tortoise away, and that sword strike pierced Guo Dong’s soul.

Guo Dong’s body went limp and he collapsed directly. Then the Black-Robed Man exerted force again, and the Pseudo-Azure Dragon was taken away.

At this moment, the livestream chat exploded. Clearly, someone was disrupting the match site, but everyone was more concerned about who had actually won.

“I think Su Ming won. That sword strike was so terrifying—how could anyone possibly block it?”

“How could it not be blocked? That turtle shell was so strong—how could it possibly fail to block it?”

“Hey, the person above, pay attention. That seemed to be a Black Tortoise just now. Isn’t the Black Tortoise in someone else’s hands?”

(Note: The True Black Tortoise and the Pseudo-Black Tortoise look very similar; ordinary people can’t tell them apart.)

“So that means the saint used two contracted ghosts and beasts that weren’t his. Doesn’t that mean he loses by default?”

“Just got news—the Heavenly Saint Sect’s sect master has made a move.”

“Wow, as expected, he is a mama’s boy, mother’s love coming through [haha]”

“Just arrived. Can someone explain what happened?”

“I still think the saint won. How could he use a ghost domain?”

…

At this moment, public opinion was in turmoil, but the four principals and most people supported Su Ming winning. After all, that Black Tortoise shouldn’t have appeared in the first place—its removal didn’t affect the match result.

Shi Zhanlong ordered: “Find the mastermind behind this!”

The Black-Robed Man flew into the air: “No need. Let me play with everyone for a while.”

Shi Zhanlong stared at the Black-Robed Man. He had only cooperated with him yesterday—why today…

Shi Zhanlong suddenly realized: “Quick! Seize Su Ming and the Black-Robed Man!”

Su Ming was so exhausted she could barely stand. She had recalled all her ghosts and beasts except the Sword Ghost, and her spiritual power was almost completely depleted. It was too tiring.

The sect master seemed to realize something too and immediately attacked, but was firmly held back by “Wugou.”

Only then did the sect master notice that “Wugou” had already been controlled by the descent technique—he had died long ago!

The sect master immediately used a skill, striking with full force and scattering “Wugou’s” soul to the winds.

Shi Zhanlong led his men to surround Su Ming: “Speak! Is the Vermilion Bird on you?!”

Su Ming pretended to be innocent: “I’m a student of the Vermilion Bird Academy, no problem there. Look at the school badge.” She said, pulling out her badge.

Shi Zhanlong was speechless, firmly convinced that Su Ming had taken the Vermilion Bird.

At the same time, the three members of the Mo Family were already backstage, ready to evacuate at any moment.

The Black-Robed Man faced the camera: “You see, this is what they call the righteous and orthodox sects.”

With that, the Heavenly Saint Sect’s slaves were brought out under the Black-Robed Man’s arrangement, and the livestream chat exploded once again.

The four principals saw the situation going bad and hastily shut down the livestream, but news of the Heavenly Saint Sect buying and selling slaves spread rapidly online. The Heavenly Saint Sect was now in the eye of a public opinion storm.

But at this moment, tensions were at their peak. The Heavenly Saint Sect’s protective sect formation had already been activated—no one present could escape, including the innocent spectators.

The military expert finally made his appearance: “How dare you!”

The moment he channeled his spiritual power, the black qi hidden within him surged straight into his heart meridian.

“Descent technique?”

The Black-Robed Man sneered: “Congratulations, you guessed right. Now, please be on your way.”

The military expert’s consciousness and the Black-Robed Man fought for control, but the Black-Robed Man didn’t care—because what he had to face now was the sect master.

Su Ming looked at the Security Bureau personnel like Shi Zhanlong surrounding her, and the Black-Robed Man floating above. Seriously, before you guys start fighting, could you send me away first? This feels really dangerous…

Su Lin glanced at the time—two minutes had already passed. True to expectations, Lord Lin had opened the protective barrier of the sect-guarding formation. It was time to leave quickly.

After the Azure Dragon of the Small Coffin obtained his body, he quickly used the resources Su Lin provided to complete the modifications. Once his soul was integrated, the true Azure Dragon had returned.

The Azure Dragon felt the power of Peak Ninth Realm within his body. Though his soul was not yet fully restored, now that he had a body, recovery was only a matter of time. He volunteered eagerly:

“I’ll go rescue the princess.”

Su Lin stopped him: “Rescue Black Tortoise first. Don’t worry—her mission isn’t finished yet.”

The Azure Dragon didn’t know that Su Lin intended to destroy Su Ming’s male form, so he began treating Black Tortoise.

The prolonged bloodletting and bone marrow extraction had left Black Tortoise in dire condition. Had he not been saved today, he would have either died on the platform or succumbed to his severe injuries.

The Azure Dragon comforted him: “Brother, don’t be afraid. Your big brother is here to save you.”
