C662 The Disgusting Man Did Disgusting Things

As Woo Zhengyang pushed through the crowd and approached the inner city gate, he was taken aback by an unexpected sight. The leader, who had just been threatening the guards with their families' lives, turned tail and ran into the inner city before Zhengyang even got close.

"What a coward!"

"He's the real coward here!"

"We should all sign a petition to report his actions..."

The guards, already resentful from being coerced, were now filled with righteous anger seeing their leader flee. Woo Zhengyang, uninterested in their grievances, stepped into the inner city.

As soon as he entered, a peculiar sensation washed over him. Zhengyang smiled slightly, realizing that preparations had indeed been made for his arrival, including setting up an array. However, after a brief assessment, he dismissed it.

The array was of a master level, designed merely to prevent people from leaving. For the average practitioner, a master-level array was formidable, but for Woo Zhengyang, now a king-level Array Master, it was trivial.

Moreover, the array was meant to stop Zhengyang from leaving, but he had no intention of leaving until the issue was resolved. In the end, it was uncertain who would truly be hindered by the array.

Typically, guards aren't allowed into the inner city, and even if they were, it wouldn't matter. Their leader had already fled, so what courage would they have to stop Woo Zhengyang?

Before long, Woo Zhengyang arrived at the grand hall. He expected to find them waiting for him there, but to his surprise, it was completely empty. Passing through the hall and entering the inner quarters, Woo Zhengyang felt a bit lost. With so many buildings, how was he supposed to find his way?

A faint sound reached his ears, and Woo Zhengyang followed it. The closer he got, the clearer it became—a melody of strings and flutes. It was baffling to him that someone would be playing music at a time like this, making him feel frustrated. It seemed his fearsome reputation as a killer didn't carry much weight here.

Following the music, Woo Zhengyang soon arrived at a palace. As he got closer, he could hear the soft voices of women mingling with the music, making his expression turn even colder. It was as if they didn't take him seriously at all.

With a swift kick, he burst open the palace doors, revealing a shocking scene. Inside were over a dozen scantily clad women, and among them were two men. One of the men was old and frail, his body withered and face lined with wrinkles. It was clear this was Sun Yu, the ruler of the land.

Upon learning that Sun Yu planned to bring several sixteen-year-old girls into his palace for his ninetieth birthday, Woo Zhengyang's impression of him soured. Observing Sun Yu's actions and his repulsive demeanor only solidified Woo Zhengyang's resolve to eliminate him.

Despite being the ruler of a nation, Sun Yu sat to the side, while someone else occupied the main seat. This individual was a short, stout man with dark skin and a round, blubbery physique, resembling a black ball. His repulsiveness rivaled that of Sun Yu.

When Woo Zhengyang kicked the door open, the man continued his vile activities, unfazed by the intrusion. It was clear he had sensed Woo Zhengyang's presence long before. Sun Yu, nearing ninety, was oblivious and trembled in fear, collapsing into spasms.

"Big brother... save me..." Sun Yu pleaded with the rotund man.

"Hmph, look at you, scaredy-cat!" the man scoffed. Despite his ongoing repulsive actions, he wore a Hidden Heaven Bag at his waist. As he spoke, he freed a hand to retrieve a pill, flicking it expertly into Sun Yu's mouth.

After swallowing the pill, Sun Yu's spasms ceased. He dared not continue his vile deeds, hastily throwing on some clothes and cowering beside the rotund man.

"Hey, boss... Woo Zhengyang is here..."

"I knew that already. I told them not to report it."

Woo Zhengyang was speechless. He thought he had no intimidating presence, but it turned out the old guy was just unaware. No wonder he was almost scared to death.

"But he..."

"With me here, what’s there to fear? Besides, his uncle and cousin are in our hands. Would he dare make a move? Speaking of his cousin, she’s really something, but unfortunately, we can't touch her..."

"Where are they?"

"Where? You should worry about yourself first! Haha... Kid, did you really think I brought you here just for a show? Do you think our actions are absurd? Haven't you noticed anything unusual amidst the absurdity?"

"No wonder you told me to hold my breath and stop absorbing the surrounding energy. You were prepared all along. Haha... You're really something, boss. I’m impressed."

Sun Yu, with his deeply lined face, was being overly flattering, making Woo Zhengyang feel disgusted again.

"Are you talking about your soul poison?"

Woo Zhengyang was naturally cautious and didn't believe that the black sphere, being a Martial King, would be so careless. Sure enough, he quickly noticed something was off. The burning incense burner had a mechanism that released a soul poison into the palace when Woo Zhengyang entered.

The poison of the soul is colorless and tasteless, even when it evaporates into the air. If Woo Zhengyang hadn't experienced this strange sensation before, he might not have noticed anything. For an ordinary person, by the time they realized it, it would already be too late.

Just like those scantily clad women, who were now in a dazed state...

"What? You actually know about this soul poison!"

"Not only do I know about it, but I also drank a drop of it in Bright Sun City!" Woo Zhengyang said with a light chuckle.

As he spoke, Woo Zhengyang flicked his fingers, sending out beams of energy that ended the lives of the women. He hadn't intended to kill them, as anyone could see they were serving those two vile men against their will. But now, having been poisoned, they would either die or become mindless. Death was a kinder fate.

"That's impossible... Even a Martial King can't easily resist this soul poison. You've inhaled so much of it, how can you still harness your true energy?"

"Have you forgotten who I am? I'm Woo Zhengyang. With me, nothing is impossible!" Woo Zhengyang replied, flicking his fingers again.

He then approached the incense burner and opened it. Inside the flames was a small jade bottle, its liquid boiling and slowly dispersing into the air.

Next, Woo Zhengyang's actions made the Black Ball Martial King finally believe what Woo Zhengyang had said. He picked up the jade bottle and poured the liquid inside straight into his mouth...
