"It's over, we've fallen into Xu Tianran's trap!"
"Xu Tianran is no longer in the frame!"
Huo Yuhao's two exclamations made the faces of the Tang Clan members turn ugly.
At this point, they realized that they had fallen into a trap.
Looking at Ye Nanxiao on the Soul Guidance Screen, everyone felt nauseous, as if a fly had landed on a fine dish, or as if a high-quality figurine had been delivered to them but they received a cheap, low-quality one.
Silver Peacock also heard Huo Yuhao's words. His expression changed, and he quickly took out his communication soul tool to upload the message.
"We need to retreat quickly. We didn't expect Xu Tianran to pull such a trick. We were too caught up in the moment and didn't notice it carefully," Bei Bei said calmly, quickly organizing the retreat.
Silver Peacock had no complaints and quickly ordered his men to scout the surrounding area in preparation for clearing a path.
Jiang Nannan and Ma Xiaotao exchanged a glance, both harboring resentment.
The two of them didn't even notice that something was wrong with "Ye Nanxiao" on the soul guide screen.
This was like a slap in the face for them.
If this incident causes Ye Nanxiao and Yan Shaozhe, who were proceeding according to the original plan, to be in trouble, and causes the entire Tang Clan team to be in trouble, then they will be the biggest sinners.
"Not good, Deputy Leader, we're surrounded! A large army is heading our way, forming a huge encirclement!" a hunter reported to Silver Peacock.
Everyone's expressions darkened as they looked at Huo Yuhao.
Huo Yuhao gripped Wang Dong'er's small hand tightly, his mental energy surging, and his mental probe transformed into a straight line, scanning outwards.
Now, with Wang Dong'er's assistance, his mental detection, when focused entirely on a straight path, can cover a distance of over a thousand meters.
And with the help of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, it continues to spread outwards.
"Yuhao, your body can only withstand our power for three minutes!" Tianmeng Ice Silkworm said.
"I understand." Bloodshot veins appeared in Huo Yuhao's bright eyes.
He borrowed the sealing power of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm.
Under the powerful mental detection, squads of the Sun Moon Army were converging and surging in from all directions. The two largest squads each had a pattern resembling a soul beast on them.
It is the Guardian Hands of the Nation, the Soul Master Corps!
Huo Yuhao even saw a fixed-mount soul-guided cannon installed directly two streets away.
Fixed-mount Soul-Guided Cannon, the Hand Protecting the Nation.
This means they have already located the Tang Clan's position.
Without hesitation, Huo Yuhao immediately explained the current situation and had everyone connect to the mental detection system.
Silver Peacock and the others did not resist at all; under the current circumstances, they were all in the same boat.
After a brief moment of surprise at Huo Yuhao's soul skill, Silver Peacock took the initiative to join the Tang Sect's tactical arrangements.
A hundred meters away from their hiding place, with two groups of Soul Masters leading the way, a figure covered in dark purple Soul Guidance Armor sat quietly on a floating chair.
His head drooped on his right hand, leaning against the armrest, while he fiddled with two darts in his other hand, exuding an air of nonchalance.
"Reporting to the commander! The target has stopped advancing and is hiding in the cover, seemingly having spotted us!" a soldier said, kneeling on one knee.
"Heh, have you realized it yet? It's too late!" Xu Tianran sneered.
He twisted his neck and stretched his body, making popping sounds all over his body.
"It's been a long time since I've exercised. Let's see if these prey can give me a good workout!"
Xu Tianran clenched his fist, and faint ripples of air appeared around it.
He was very satisfied with the soul-guided armor he was wearing. It was not only highly functional, but also fit his body and the soul-guided prosthetic limbs underneath him perfectly.
During the competition, after witnessing the battle between the Star Luo Empire's Shadow Stream Team and the team under the Aodu Chamber of Commerce, Xu Tianran suddenly became interested in the soul guide armor that could completely cover the entire body.
Using the emperor's power, he directly ordered the Aodu Chamber of Commerce to submit its information to the empire, bestowed a title upon Li Yuanren, the president of the Aodu Chamber of Commerce, and granted him a share of a thousand catties of rare metals and tens of thousands of gold coins.
After obtaining the information, he personally went to the Hall of Worship and, in his capacity as emperor, demanded that the information be analyzed and the finished product manufactured.
By pooling the power of the Hall of Offerings, this unique Soul Guidance Armor was forged for Xu Tianran.
Of course, the document that Li Yuanren submitted was specially prepared by Ye Nanxiao, and it contained two backdoors that Li Yuanren was unaware of.
After seeing a set of advanced soul-guided armor data and verifying its effectiveness twice, the Gongfeng Hall modified some parameters, eliminated a few minor issues, and incorporated Xu Tianran's ideas to create an enhanced version of the soul-guided armor.
It was only after being tested by several bodyguards that it appeared on Xu Tianran.
"Sir, should we inform the Commander-in-Chief?" the soldier asked.
Xu Tianran waved his hand. "No need."
Xu Tianran was quite satisfied with the pragmatic Aodu Chamber of Commerce, having such a dedicated tool to amass wealth for him.
If Ju Zi hadn't handed over control of the Aodu Chamber of Commerce back then, Xu Tianran wouldn't have allowed her to continue in the position of Grand Commander.
"What's the situation on the other side?" Xu Tianran asked, walking slowly forward step by step with his hands behind his back.
Upon hearing this, the soldier respectfully replied, "Targets One and Two have been successfully held back, but they seem to possess the ability to tear open spatial rifts and escape using them. All seven elders have been mobilized!"
Apart from the three known as the Three Great Douluo of Soul Tools, all the other enshrined members of the Hall of Worship have been mobilized.
Upon hearing the soldier's reply, Xu Tianran frowned and tossed out a golden token.
"Go and invite the chief priest over."
The soldier took the token, saluted, and jogged away.
Xu Tianran looked at the building in the distance, his anger growing stronger.
"Xu Luo, Xu Qin."
Two tall figures clad in soul-guided armor stepped out from the group and knelt down on one knee behind Xu Tianran.
The latest novel is first published here!
The two were the newly appointed leaders of the Imperial Dragon Soul Master Group and the Evil Monarch Soul Master Group by Xu Tianran.
"Let's go up and stretch our legs." Xu Tianran slowly floated into the air, intending to watch the show.
All of this was transmitted to everyone's eyes through Huo Yuhao's mental detection.
"Who's that purple-clad gay guy? So arrogant?" Xu Sanshi said disdainfully, gesturing with his shield as if he wanted to slap a few tortoise shell marks on the man's face.
Purple, a dark color, and walking like a cat—that guy must be gay!
Bei Bei carefully examined the image Huo Yuhao had transmitted, and said with a serious expression, "Regardless of that person's identity, he's wearing soul-guided armor similar to ours! That's a problem!"
Jiang Nannan frowned, looked at the Silver Peacock, a token appearing in her hand, and asked, "Among the soul-guided armors within the organization, is it possible to find this purple set?"
Silver Peacock glanced at the token in Jiang Nannan's hand, and his expression immediately became respectful. He bowed and said, "My lord, the soul-guided armor within the organization is numbered, and the number is located on the left chest. Although it is quite small, we can identify it if we can observe the purple armor."
Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao immediately focused his mind and zoomed in on the mental detection image.
However, this small movement caused Huo Yuhao to tremble all over, gritting his teeth to maintain the output of his soul power.
From Huo Yuhao's perspective, everyone focused on the left chest of the purple soul-guided armor and discovered a dragon head pattern there.
"Dragon Head is Xu Tianran's henchman, but how did he obtain the Soul Guidance Armor? And two other sets of armor have also appeared!" Silver Peacock's expression gradually became solemn.
As key supporters of the Hunter Project, they are not only combat units but also hold important research positions, so they naturally know some internal secrets.
Without a moment to hesitate, Silver Peacock decisively took out a bead-shaped soul tool from the security layer on her chest and crushed it forcefully.
"I've destroyed my signal source. Nearby squads will receive a warning; get here as soon as possible!" Silver Peacock said to Jiang Nannan. "Our return route has been cut off. The best we can do now is to break through the ground and enter the underground transportation system to evacuate!"
The appearance of the new Soul Guidance Armor disrupted all of Silver Peacock's plans.
He knew the power of the Soul Guidance Armor. In the current situation, there were only two possibilities: if the Soul Guidance Armor on the other side was a replica, their pressure would be much lighter, but if it was the real thing, some members of their team would probably have to stay here.
"Get ready for battle. Let's fight our way out. If Xiao Xiao and Lao Yan haven't been caught, they're probably just being held back. If we see the fake, they'll see it too. Xiao Xiao will know what we're thinking, and he'll definitely come." Ma Xiaotao closed her mask, and an ancient-looking shield appeared on her right arm.
"We fell for their plan and dragged you all into this mess." Huo Yuhao opened his eyes and looked at the Silver Peacock Squad.
Silver Peacock waved his hand and said, "We are deeply grateful for the Chamber of Commerce's kindness. Our families are guaranteed after death, and we have resources to receive while we are alive. Moreover, we walk in darkness, doing dirty and tiring work. It is the Chamber of Commerce that has given us dignity and new light. We have sworn an oath before the boss's statue!"
"Sir, please evacuate first. We have a backup plan. We will fight and retreat as we go."
Silver Peacock quickly directed his subordinates to set up, connecting the linked soul-guided shield, and preparing the soul-guided interference shells for launch.
Having accepted the Chamber of Commerce's favor, they were obligated to remove Jiang Nannan, who held the chairman's token, from the premises.
They believe in repaying kindness and avenging wrongs; this is the life motto of these underground mercenaries.
Xu Tianran glanced at the fixed-mount soul-guided cannon that had been installed behind him, and waved his hand, "Attack."
Xu Luo and Xu Qin transformed into streaks of black light and charged forward at lightning speed.
Beneath their masks, their狰狞 (zhengning, meaning ferocious/hideous) faces revealed a bloody cruelty.
The members of the Tang Clan prepared to face the impending attack.
next moment.
Suddenly, a colossal ice crystal tree shot into the sky, accompanied by several dazzling phoenixes of light, rising amidst the light.
