Chapter 169: Soul Summoning Bell! Counter!

Hearing Ou Chen’s words, Jiang Wencheng and Zhu Changfeng’s eyes flickered, but they didn’t rush to refute him.


In their opinion, Link and the others—who had entered the camp—were already fish on the chopping board. They had no choice but to be slaughtered by them.


They no longer needed to make up a story, and they had no need to refute anything.


Jiang Wencheng scrutinized Ou Chen, looking at him up and down, and said with a smile, “Yes, it seems like you knew of our plan.”


“Let me think about it; when did we slip up?” Jiang Wencheng muttered to himself, turning his head to ask a subordinate. “Are all the teams I sent back?”


The young man named Zhao Qinghe thought for a while and then shook his head. He said respectfully, “The vast majority of the teams have returned. Only one team from Quicksand City hasn’t returned. They were sent to Unfallen City.”


Jiang Wencheng’s eyes glinted. “Oh, my team was intercepted by you then? No wonder.”


Jiang Wencheng took a step forward and stared at Ou Chen. “How dare you intercept and kill the people from Ancient Martial Alliance? You are bold!”


With those cold words, Jiang Wencheng’s warm smile had long since disappeared. What was left was heart-palpitating killing intent!


Jiang Wencheng’s gaze was piercing as he scanned Link and the others. His eyes were full of unconcealed coldness as if the people in front of him were already corpses.


Wu Hao stood beside Ou Chen, and a sword suddenly appeared in his hand.


The blade’s cold light gleamed in the sun; it was obviously a powerful piece of equipment!


Wu Hao didn’t say anything and merely remained silent. His pair of tiger eyes narrowed slightly, and the muscles under his clothes tensed. He was like a wild beast that was about to attack at any time!


Both sides had dropped all pretenses, and he was ready to fight!


In fact, whether it was Ou Chen or Wu Hao, as Stage Five star-rank powerhouses, both had already stood out in front of everyone. They wanted to protect everyone with their own strength.


The auras of Stage Five Star-rank powerhouses swirled, bringing up the dust on the ground!


Two Stage Five powerhouses were a force that couldn’t be underestimated! But Jiang Wencheng and Zhu Changfeng still looked confident and unafraid. It was as though they were sure they would defeat Ou Chen and the others.


Jiang Wencheng sneered and said, “Two Star-rank powerhouses? Not bad, it seems that you have some power. However, no matter how powerful you are, you’re still in trouble today! Do you think we only prepared a few stones to store magic power?”


Before he finished speaking, Zhu Changfeng was already laughing evilly. His laughter was full of mockery.


The people from the Temple of Light shuddered, and their expressions instantly became tense.


Even Wu Hao and Ou Chen—both Stage Five powerhouses—had serious expressions on their faces.


What other plot does the other party have?


This question flashed in their minds, but the staff in Zhu Changfeng’s hand had already abruptly hit the ground before they could get an answer.


The bell hanging on the staff rang suddenly!


Clang! Clang! Clang!


The ringing sound was faint and strange. It seemed to come from the sky, but it also seemed to ring in everyone’s ears!


Suddenly, strange circular ripples rippled from the bell and swept toward Ou Chen and the others!


Tian Mingyuan and the other powerhouses from the Temple of Light suddenly turned pale!


As the bell rang, something in their minds seemed to be suddenly aroused!


Not only did their heads hurt like needles were sticking into them, but even their consciousness was gradually dissipating. They felt as if they were about to lose control of their bodies!


As the Temple of Light’s Stage Five powerhouses, Wu Hao and Ou Chen had higher resistance than Tian Mingyuan and the others. However, they also were having a hard time.


“There’s something wrong with the ringing! Seal your hearing!” Wu Hao roared and smacked his ears with his hands. With a sliver of power, he shattered his eardrums!


By doing this, he completely isolated himself from that strange ringing’s influence.


Wu Hao then jumped out like a ferocious beast. The ground shattered under his feet, and cracks spread out like a spider web.


The saber tore through the air, causing a sonic boom!


“Glorious Slash!” Wu Hao roared, apparently having activated his skill!


A dazzling glow shot out from the longsword in his hand. It became more and more astonishing as if it were going to shear the mountain and cut the Hengjiang river!


And his target was Zhu Changfeng from the Evil Sect!


Faced with this fierce offense, both Zhu Changfeng and Jiang Wencheng’s faces flashed with surprise. However, they quickly regained their composure.


Zhu Changfeng didn’t even move at all. He just looked at Wu Hao in amusement—who was hurtling toward him!


Zhu Changfeng’s wrist shook fiercely, and the ringing sound became more rapid, sounding like the howling of a thousand ghosts!


Wu Hao’s figure suddenly stopped in the air. A bloody mist gushed out of his mouth, and his body heavily fell to the ground as if he had been hit hard!


Zhu Changfeng looked at Wu Hao—who was lying in front of him—with a cruel smile on his face, appearing like a cat toying with a mouse. “You’re so cruel and decisive. You shattered your eardrums just to avoid the ringing. It’s a pity that this ringing is not just a sound wave but also a mental shock. Shattering your eardrums will not help!”


In fact, while heading deeper into the Forest of Darkness, Zhu Changfeng had already been exerting his control on Link and the others.


The ringing sound caused by movement wasn’t noticeable at all, but it was carefully planned by him!


Every ring of the bell was like an imprint that hid in people’s minds. For the time being, they stayed hidden but laid in wait quietly, waiting for the moment when the killing intent appeared!


The moment Wu Hao threw himself out, he realized that the bell still rang in his mind. He was unable to stop it. However, he could only do his best to use his skills to kill Zhu Changfeng.


But as Wu Hao approached the sound source, his skills were interrupted, and he even suffered backlash!


All of this happened in an instant.


Everyone’s hearts sank; a wave of cold surged into their chests, and they felt as if they had fallen into an ice cave!


“Elder Wu!” The Temple of Light’s Holy Son—Ou Chen’s eyes suddenly turned red. Although he sometimes hated the Elders’ control, he had feelings for them.


Upon seeing Elder Wu vomiting blood and falling to the ground, Ou Chen felt as if he had taken a fierce stab to the heart at this moment!


“Enjoy the despair, everyone. Rest assured, we will not kill you. Your lives are precious; you still have to open the entrance to the ruins!” Jiang Wencheng sneered.


But he and Zhu Changfeng were soon unable to continue laughing. Instead, they stood there dumbfounded. This was because the scene before them was beyond their expectations.


They saw Link calmly walking toward them as if he were completely unaffected by the ringing!


Moreover, the glamorous woman behind Link was calm as well!


In an instant, the [King’s Sword] appeared in Link’s hands!
