Chapter 252: Eye Of Hell
Before the words finished, Lin Yu’s body swayed and fell the floor. When he tumbled, his eyes were wide in disbelief! Until the very end of his life, he couldn’t imagine what confidence Huang Xiaolong had to actually kill him in Black Demon City.
“Third Senior Brother!”
“Third Senior Brother!!”
Gao Qing and Qu Honggang looked on dumbly as Lin Yu’s body crashed to the floor. But the time they shook off the shock stiffening them, both had an ugly expression on their faces as they dashed to Lin Yu’s side, crying out to him.
Regardless how many times they cried out, there was no reaction from Lin Yu.
From another spot, Huang Xiaolong slowly walked towards them, causing them to stumble backward in fright.
After the little ambush earlier, both knew very well that they were powerless to escape Huang Xiaolong’s clutches.
“Why aren’t the two of you kneeling down, submitting to Young Lord?!” Du Xin and Deng Guangliang stepped out at this moment, ordering Gao Qing and Wu Honggang.
Hesitation and fear flashed back and forth on Gao Qing and Wu Honggang’s faces. Did they really have no other choice but to surrender to this black-haired young man?!
But, the consequences of betraying the Sky Magi Sect were…!
On the other hand, if they didn’t submit, it was certain death. Involuntarily, their eyes swayed towards Lin Yu’s cold body on the floor not far away. Both struggled internally.
Huang Xiaolong waited patiently for their final decision, in no rush at all.
“Fine, I agree to submit to you, serving you as my master!” Not long later, Gao Qing spoke with a slight hesitation. In the end, he chose to submit to Huang Xiaolong, he chose to live.
Wu Honggang watched as Gao Qing submitted, his weak resolution faltered. Sighing quietly in his heart, he spoke the same words: “I’m willing to surrender too.”
Huang Xiaolong nodded, satisfied with the results.
No one person was willing to die. Before the choice of life and death, in ten thousand people, nine thousand nine hundred ninety-nine people would choose to submit, compromise, or surrender.
“Open up your soul sea, I will brand a soul mark inside.” Huang Xiaolong stated matter-of-factly..
“Brand a soul mark!” Gao Qing and Wu Honggang were shocked and fearful.
A technique like branding someone’s soul, Gao Qing and Wu Honggang had only heard about it in passing. Inexplicably, their eyes turned towards Du Xin and Deng Guangliang, at this moment, they finally understood why their Senior Brothers were serving Huang Xiaolong so willingly.
“Correct, I also branded their soul seas with a soul mark.” Noticing their expressions, Huang Xiaolong said, and his words confirmed their suspicions.
Once again, Gao Qing and Wu Honggang struggled with doubt and hesitation.
In the beginning, Gao Qing and Wu Honggang held the same thoughts that Du Xin and Deng Guangliang initially had. First pretend to submit to Huang Xiaolong and then look for an opportunity later to deal with him. If they were branded with a soul mark, their lives would be controlled by Huang Xiaolong at all times. At that time, they would have no other choice than to serve Huang Xiaolong willingly.
Despite many thoughts swirling in their mind, in the end, both Gao Qing and Wu Honggang lowered their spiritual defense and opened up their soul seas. When the two released the barriers protecting their soul seas in front of Huang Xiaolong, combining the Soul Mandate and the Ancient Puppetry Arts, Huang Xiaolong marked their souls.
At this stage, both Gao Qing and Wu Honggang were fully under Huang Xiaolong’s control. When it ended, Huang Xiaolong was secretly relieved. If all three of them refused to submit, he had no choice but to kill all three of them. This was not the result he wanted.
After branding their soul seas, Huang Xiaolong gave each of them a grade six spirit pellet. Seeing the grade six spirit pellets in their palms, Gao Qing and Wu Honggang were so excited, quickly kowtowing in gratitude.
Instructing the four to deal with Lin Yu’s corpse and some other matters, he told Gao Qing and Wu Honggang to return, everything was as if.
It seems I must speed up the plan. Huang Xiaolong thought to himself.
Huang Xiaolong told Gao Qing and Wu Honggang to create a smoke screen with Lin Yu’s death, telling outsiders that Lin Yu went out on a mission, and probably won’t be coming back in the short one two months’ time. This way, Chen Xiaotian wouldn’t feel suspicious for the time being, but if the time dragged on too long, it would be inevitable for Chen Xiaotian to notice something was amiss.
