"Look, what's that next to the Underworld Guard?"

"It's obviously not human."

"Nonsense, if this were a human, would I need to ask you?"

A bold ghost from the settlement stepped forward and respectfully inquired, "Greetings, Lord Patrol Guard! Is there anything I can help you with?"

The lead patrol guard carefully put Li Yu down before shouting loudly:

"A personal decree from the Soul Master—!"

Whoosh!

Upon hearing this, the surrounding ghosts were immediately subdued by an invisible force and knelt down in unison.

The faces of the ghosts were filled with fanatical reverence for their Lord, even when faced with only a command or decree.

"Is the garrison commander here?" The leading patrolman looked around and asked in a commanding tone.

"Here!" A powerful ghost in the distance, who merely bowed his head but did not kneel, suddenly responded.

The Guardian is personally selected by the Soul Master to govern a certain gathering place in the underworld. They are essentially the guardians of this place and have the privilege of not having to kneel when obeying the Soul Master's orders.

The souls of the lead and second patrol guards flickered, clearly indicating that the long journey to escape the pursuit had left them almost completely exhausted.

In order to deliver the precious and rare high-level beasts to the Soul Lord and complete the mission as soon as possible, they had no choice but to use the authority of the Soul Lord's personal decree to requisition the stronger guards in this area to continue escorting Li Yu.

With the garrison commander's abilities, he is confident that he can continue to deliver the 'high-level exotic beasts' behind him to the Soul Master.

"The Lord of Souls has given an order." The head of the patrolling guards looked at the garrison commander, his voice suddenly turning solemn: "You are ordered to set off immediately and safely escort the high-level beast to the Deep Tower for an audience. There must be no mistakes!"

Upon hearing that the order was personally given by the Soul Master, the local garrison commander knelt down and said, "Feng Zuo obeys!"

A suppressed gasp and murmur arose from the settlement:

"Wow! Did you hear that? That thing is actually a high-level alien beast!"

"No wonder he looks so strange."

"It actually looks quite human, just with a bit of rough fur."

However, some ghosts didn't care about Li Yu at all, but instead thought with hopeful eyes:

"To be able to enter the Deep Tower and personally witness the Soul Master—what an immense honor! I'm so envious..."

As long as it is the will of the Soul Master, that is the highest meaning of their existence!

All of them, the 'humans,' will carry out the Soul Master's orders with their lives!

Moreover, implementing this latest decree means that there is a chance to step into the Deep Tower again, and even to meet the great Lord of Souls once more!

This immense sense of honor instantly ignited Feng Zuo's passion, urging him to complete the order as soon as possible.

Even Feng Zuo, who was initially unwilling to pay attention to the Patrol Guards, was secretly excited at this moment.

"Leave it to me, I will definitely bring the high-level beast."

Feng Zuo's voice carried a hint of excitement at the prospect of meeting his "god," as he assured the two exhausted underworld guards.

"Then let's set off as soon as possible. The Soul Master is still waiting for the guests in the Deep Tower," the leading patrol guard urged.

Feng Zuo quickly walked to Li Yu's side, rapidly conjuring up a rich, pure white mist in his hands. This mist formed a solid yet resilient wall behind Li Yu, like a soft bed, gently pressing against her back.

"rise!"

A large amount of white mist suddenly erupted from Feng Zuo's body, as if an invisible engine had been ignited.

Li Yu felt a huge yet gentle force coming from behind him, and he was instantly pushed off the ground!

"call--"

The air rushed past my ears, and the surrounding scenery instantly blurred into darkness as I was thrown backward.

The escort was so fast that it left a sharp hissing sound in the air behind it!

Feng Zuo transformed into a frenzied train of soul power, propelling Li Yu at breakneck speed toward the Deep Tower.

Li Yu had no intention of exerting himself to run, so he simply relaxed his body, adjusted his posture, and lay comfortably on the soft fog wall created by Feng Zuo, as if enjoying an underground high-speed sightseeing tour.

Both the patrol guards and Feng Zuo believed that the escort mission would be completed successfully.

Feng Zuo also felt that he would soon be able to successfully reach the end of the Deep Tower and meet the Soul Master.

In the midst of this fleeting tranquility, Li Yu's gaze casually swept across the deep darkness ahead, her brows twitching almost imperceptibly.

He glanced at Feng Zuo, who was pushing him aside, and said in an almost casual tone...

"Hurry up, or you're in trouble."

Feng Zuo: "...?"

Hearing the high-level beast suddenly speak to him, Feng Zuo was puzzled and was about to ask a question.

"Pfft!"

A very faint, delicate sound, like a bubble bursting, yet so clear it was unsettling, as if something had been pierced.

Li Yu was all too familiar with that voice.

The next second, the howling wind at high speed came to an abrupt halt!

Feng Zuoqian's momentum suddenly stopped, and he staggered and almost fell. The strong inertia caused Li Yu, who was being pushed, to lean forward slightly.

The excitement on his face, the anticipation of completing his mission and preparing to meet the "god," froze instantly, replaced by utter bewilderment and unbelievable horror.

"Enemy attack??"

Feng Zuo lowered his head stiffly.

In the center of his chest, which was made of pure white mist, a hole the size of a bowl was clearly visible!

The edge was churning with constantly dissipating mist.

The dense white mist within his body surged forth from the terrifying hole like a burst dam, quickly dissipating into the cold air.

It's a penetrating wound!

It was too fast; Feng Zuo didn't even see what had pierced through him.

Keep in mind that this area is close to the Deep Tower and the rear area of ​​the Soul Master!
