Chapter 152: The Flustered Bibi Dong

Chapter 152: The Flustered Bibi Dong

Swish!

In a flash, Su Mo reappeared inside his hotel room.

"Hu—"

Letting out a deep breath, Su Mo finally relaxed.

Even though he had maintained a calm facade the entire time, he had still been slightly tense.

After all, he had just faced Tang Hao, the Clear Sky Douluo—the man who was portrayed as invincible every time he appeared in the original story.

The sheer presence Tang Hao exuded had been overwhelming.

The Killing God Domain, in his hands, was truly terrifying.

That aura of absolute dominance was suffocating.

Su Mo had nearly fled outright.

However, he reminded himself that Tang Hao's strength was only on the surface.

Deep down, he was a coward.

That realization had helped him regain composure.

Why did Su Mo think Tang Hao was cowardly?

Because when Tang Hao defeated Qian Xunji back then, he had the perfect opportunity to kill him and avenge his wife.

But he didn't dare.

His wife had just sacrificed herself for him, and yet, he still hesitated.

Not to mention, the first time he used Ring Detonation against Golden Crocodile Douluo, he still failed to finish the job.

To Su Mo, Tang Hao was someone who hesitated at crucial moments.

That was why, despite his overwhelming aura, the psychological pressure Su Mo felt was much less than expected.

"I didn't expect the King of Slaughter to tolerate it."

"It seems you were right. He really doesn't want any new Killing Gods to appear."

At that moment, Bibi Dong appeared beside Su Mo, her tone carrying a hint of surprise.

When Su Mo first mentioned this possibility, she had been skeptical.

After all, she had passed through the City of Slaughter's trials without any interference from the King of Slaughter.

The same applied to Tang Hao.

"It doesn't matter. Now that I have long-range teleportation, I don't need to worry about Tang Hao anymore."

Su Mo chuckled indifferently.

"True. Your mastery over space-time abilities is simply too powerful. From the start, you were destined to be untouchable."

Bibi Dong nodded in agreement.

Time and space attributes weren't unheard of in soul skills.

But this was the first time she had seen such an overpowered ability.

Not only could Su Mo teleport over vast distances, but his space-time power could even break through into different worlds.

After that, Su Mo remained completely safe within the City of Slaughter.

No matter how hard Tang Hao searched, he never found another opportunity to strike.

Unless they met in the Hell Slaughter Arena, there was nothing Tang Hao could do.

And even then, he would never dare to make a move inside the arena.

Destroying the Hell Slaughter Arena would force the King of Slaughter to intervene.

At first, Su Mo had wondered whether he would run into Tang San in the arena.

But that never happened.

Tang San had deliberately avoided participating in the same matches as Su Mo.

Because of that, his win streak was progressing much slower.

Even Hu Liena's pace had slowed, as she also had to avoid being in the same arena as Tang San.

Six months later, Su Mo had reached a 99-match win streak.

At the same time, his soul power had reached level 60.

However, since the City of Slaughter had no way to obtain soul rings, he was temporarily stuck at that level.

"Su Mo, you promised to wait for me. You better not go back on your word!"

In Su Mo's room, Hu Liena lifted her head, letting out a soft gulp before looking at him with pitiful eyes.

"Relax. I always keep my promises."

Su Mo reached out and patted her head like she was a pet fox.

"Mm-hmm!"

Hearing Su Mo's words, Hu Liena happily nodded.

She then summoned her external soul bone—a fox tail—and playfully extended it toward Su Mo's hand.

Su Mo immediately started stroking it.

It was soft and fluffy, completely unlike a typical soul bone.

"Pathetic. Can't you finish the trials on your own strength?"

Watching Hu Liena's behavior, Bibi Dong's voice rang in Su Mo's mind, full of exasperation.

Su Mo's hand momentarily froze.

"Raksasa Sister…"

He was speechless.

He hadn't expected Bibi Dong to be watching.

Whenever Hu Liena was around, especially when things got intimate, Bibi Dong would usually retract her consciousness from his mind.

So, Su Mo had assumed she had been avoiding these moments on purpose.

But now, hearing her voice, he realized she had actually been secretly watching through his vision the whole time!

That made him feel more than a little awkward.

However, a certain part of his body seemed to disagree.

Hu Liena immediately noticed and let out a playful scold.

"Bad guy!"

Meanwhile, in Su Mo's martial soul space, Bibi Dong's face flushed red with embarrassment.

She hadn't meant to expose herself.

She had spoken out unconsciously.

She had been caught red-handed… by herself.

Bibi Dong nearly wanted to cry from how stupid she had been.

It was all Hu Liena's fault for being so useless!

"Ahem—"

"I was just checking if she had left. I didn't see anything else. You two carry on…"

After that hurried response, Bibi Dong completely vanished from his mind.

This time, she had probably gone into true hiding.

Su Mo decided to just take her word for it and forget about the whole thing.

Dwelling on it would only make things more awkward between them.

So, without saying another word, he released Hu Liena's tail and instead grabbed her hair, pressing her down.

…

"Congratulations to the Hell Envoy for achieving a hundred consecutive victories!"

Another six months passed.

Hu Liena finally caught up to Su Mo's win streak.

A day after Su Mo reached his hundredth win, she achieved her own.

"Amazing!"

"The Hell Envoy has also reached a hundred wins…"

"A hundred consecutive victories… and now there are two of them!"

"The Spear Demon and the Hell Envoy are simply too powerful."

"And there's that blue-haired hammer guy… he's been competing non-stop too."

"Yeah, that blue-haired hammer guy is strong, but he's been avoiding fights with the other two."

"I was really hoping to see them battle, but they've been dodging each other the whole time."

"Of course! They're all strong enough to avoid unnecessary fights. If they know they can't win, they won't take the risk."

"The blue-haired hammer guy avoids the Spear Demon, and the Hell Envoy avoids the blue-haired hammer guy."

"They're the only ones who can pick and choose their fights. Unlike us, once a year passes, we have no choice but to fight whoever we're assigned."

"Do you think the Spear Demon and the Hell Envoy will challenge the legendary Hell Road?"

"…"

As Hu Liena completed her hundredth consecutive victory, the spectators erupted in hushed exclamations.

Among them, Tang San sat silently in the audience.

He had no idea that his father had once attempted to hunt down Su Mo.

Although he had heard rumors that Su Mo was attacked by a powerful individual, he had never suspected Tang Hao.

After all, he knew his father had never entered the City of Slaughter.

And besides, why would his father even target Su Mo?

Thus, he remained unaware.

Yet, even knowing Su Mo was here, he did not approach him.

Upon seeing Su Mo and Hu Liena together, he chose to conceal his identity.

Although he had not yet openly opposed Spirit Hall, in his heart, he had already marked them as his enemies.

His mother had died at the hands of Spirit Hall, and for that reason alone, he could never forgive them.

Seeing Su Mo and Hu Liena together only made him more reluctant to reveal himself.

Now that both of them had completed their hundred-match winning streak, Tang San felt an overwhelming mix of emotions.

Before coming to the City of Slaughter, his father had told him how impossibly difficult these trials were, claiming that, in all these years, only he himself had ever completed them.

And yet, here and now, Tang San saw two people who had achieved it.

And they were both his peers.

He had come to this place to surpass others, especially to surpass Su Mo.

But now?

He could only watch as Su Mo finished the trials before him.

In another corner of the arena, Tang Hao stood observing Hu Liena's victory.

His gaze shifted to Su Mo, who stood beside the Hell Slaughter Arena, his expression dark and brooding.

He truly had no opportunity to strike.

Now that Tang San was here, it was even more impossible.

Moreover, he knew that the King of Slaughter would appear whenever someone completed a hundred victories.

Yesterday, when Su Mo achieved his hundredth win, the King of Slaughter had shown up.

Only after Su Mo stated he was waiting for Hu Liena to finish so they could enter Hell Road together did the King of Slaughter leave.

Boom—

As expected, the moment Hu Liena completed her hundredth victory, the King of Slaughter swiftly descended upon the Hell Slaughter Arena.

"Congratulations to both of you. You have accomplished a feat that countless others have failed to achieve—completing a hundred consecutive victories in the Hell Slaughter Arena!"

"The City of Slaughter needs talents like you. Would you consider staying?"

"If you remain here, I can grant you the title of Killing God immediately. You can rule this city alongside me. What do you say?"

The King of Slaughter slowly descended from the sky, his gaze fixed upon Su Mo and Hu Liena as he spoke.

"You should know that Hell Road is not easily conquered. Many have reached this point, but nearly all have fallen within Hell Road."

"That is why I ask you to consider carefully."

The King of Slaughter's voice was solemn.

He genuinely did not wish to see new Killing Gods emerge.

Offering them the title of Killing God upfront was an attempt to lure them in.

That title was something normally granted only to those who had conquered Hell Road.

By warning them of the dangers of Hell Road, he hoped they would reconsider.

"No need. Just open Hell Road for us."

"We came to the City of Slaughter for the trial itself."

Su Mo stared directly at the King of Slaughter and spoke firmly.

What a joke. Why would he ever agree to stay?

There was nothing in the City of Slaughter worth his time.

Besides, the Killing God title granted by the King of Slaughter was meaningless.

It was nothing more than an empty title, devoid of any benefits, and did not grant the Killing God Domain.

Not to mention, the King of Slaughter had previously tried to use Tang Hao to get rid of him.

He was already showing mercy by not killing him outright.

Stay behind and help him rule the City of Slaughter? Impossible.

"Hell Envoy, what about you?"

The King of Slaughter's expression darkened slightly at Su Mo's refusal, but he then turned to Hu Liena.

"I choose to enter Hell Road as well."

Hu Liena answered without hesitation, rejecting the King of Slaughter's offer outright.

Seeing the resolute expressions on both of their faces, the King of Slaughter knew that there was no convincing them otherwise.

That left him in an extremely bad mood.

Every time Hell Road was opened, it was a disaster for the City of Slaughter.

The activation of Hell Road required a blood sacrifice—a large number of fallen ones and evil soul masters.

Each time it opened, the city would lose a significant portion of its population.

This was one of the main reasons the King of Slaughter despised new Killing Gods.

He didn't care about the deaths in the Hell Slaughter Arena.

After all, even without a hundred-win warrior appearing, people died in the arena every day.

"Very well. In that case, I wish you luck in surviving Hell Road."

Realizing he could not persuade them, the King of Slaughter had no choice but to follow the city's rules and begin the ritual.

Flap—

With a beat of his massive wings, he took to the air once more.

Boom—

A massive, blood-red vortex began to form before him.

As the vortex spun, a terrifying suction force surged forth, spreading across the arena.

"This is…"

"Not good…"

"…"

The spectators, sensing the pull of the vortex, turned pale.

Those who realized the danger immediately attempted to flee.

Boom—

But it was already too late.

"Ahhh—"

The figure at the front of the crowd was suddenly frozen in place, as if caught in an invisible grip.

Then, his body disintegrated into a mist of blood, which was swiftly absorbed into the vortex.

"No—"

"Help!"

"…"

Panic erupted throughout the arena.

People screamed in horror, desperately trying to escape.

But it was futile.

One by one, they were drawn in, reduced to blood and essence to fuel the opening of Hell Road.

"This is bad…"

Tang San, who had remained in the stands, turned pale.

He had just witnessed what had happened to the first victim.

For a moment, he didn't know whether he should attempt to run or stay put.

But staying here… would also mean death.

He was doomed.
