—------------------—
The next day, the manor where the Soul Palace was located, as well as the area within a radius of ten miles, was filled with silence.
Although the killing last night was over, even the birds and beasts could sense the lingering murderous aura and dared not approach.
"Huo Yuan, burn all the garbage outside the Soul Palace and don't dirty our place." Xiao Mu ordered.
Most of the people Huo Yuan dealt with last night were burned to ashes, but those who died under Yang Ziqi's gun only had a hole in their throats and were mostly intact.
"As you command."
Huo Yuan does odd jobs all day long, and destroying corpses is considered a big job.
Not long after, Huo Yuan came back and said:
"Palace Master, someone is here to visit."
"who?"
Xiao Mu had already guessed that many people would come to the Soul Palace today, and he was a little curious about who would be the first.
Huo Yuan replied, "It's Yuexuan Master Tang Yuehua."
Thinking Xiao Mu didn't know what Yuexuan was, she added, "Yuexuan is a place dedicated to the nobles and royal children of the Tiandou Empire to learn aristocratic etiquette."
Tang Yuehua?
Huo Yuan didn't know Tang Yuehua's identity, but Xiao Mu knew it very clearly. He just didn't expect that she would be the first person to come.
"Take her to the reception room. There should be quite a few visitors today. Screen them and let the irrelevant ones leave."
"Yes, I understand."
The Huo Yuan guardian also took on the role of secretary, and she now had the most work to do in the entire Soul Palace.
"Master Tang Xuan, please come this way."
Although Huo Yuan is a Soul Douluo, his previous arrogance has disappeared a lot, and he does not look down on Tang Yuehua because of his own strength.
"Thank you, Senior."
Huo Yuan could not care less about the difference in strength, but Tang Yuehua was such a good person that she certainly would not treat Huo Yuan as a servant to be welcomed and sent off.
Entering the Soul Palace, Tang Yuehua looked around carefully.
The sudden emergence of the Soul Palace made many people curious about how such a powerful force could suddenly emerge, and Tang Yuehua was no exception.
But along the way, she didn't find anything special.
On the contrary, he felt that the situation in the Soul Palace was too ordinary. He didn't see any ordinary disciples, and there were no special buildings. Overall, it looked no different from the manor of an ordinary small noble.
"The Palace Master is inside, Master Tang Xuan, please come in."
"Okay, I'll trouble you, Huo Yuan Guardian."
Along the way, Tang Yuehua did not learn about other situations in the Soul Palace, but she did learn Huo Yuan's name and her identity in the Soul Palace.
Soul Douluo is the guardian of the Soul Palace. I don't know how many guardians there are in the Soul Palace, but there should be several. After all, the Soul Palace even has Titled Douluo.
Tang Yuehua was speculating about the strength of the Soul Palace in her heart.
What she didn't know was that the Soul Palace was currently in a state where there were more Heavenly Venerables than Guardians, and more Titled Douluo than Soul Douluo.
"Tang Yuehua greets Palace Master Xiao."
Although she knew that the master of the Soul Palace was a young man, when she saw Xiao Mu, Tang Yuehua couldn't help but be surprised at Xiao Mu's youth.
How could such a young man command the obedience of Title Douluo and Soul Douluo? Could it be because he possessed that miraculous alchemy skill?
"Please take a seat."
After Xiao Mu asked Tang Yuehua to sit down, he asked directly:
"I wonder what brings you here, Master Tang Xuan?"
There were only a few of them in the Soul Palace now, so it was common for Huo Yuan to serve him tea and water, but it was impossible to expect her to serve others as a maid.
So after Tang Yuehua sat down, no one served her tea, she just sat there.
"I'm sorry to hear that the Soul Palace has established its own sect here, so I'm here to offer you a gift of congratulations."
Tang Yuehua was as graceful and elegant as if she was from a royal family. Her every move was graceful. She took out a wooden box.
"The Soul Palace has the art of alchemy. This three-leaf heart-condensing flower should be of some use to Palace Master Xiao."
Tang Yuehua was well aware of the principle of catering to the other person's preferences, and the gifts she gave were carefully selected.
"Three-leaf Heart-condensing Flower? I accept this gift."
The Three-Leaf Heart-Concentrating Flower is the main ingredient of the fifth-grade elixir, the Youth-Restoring Pill.
Although the Rejuvenating Pill cannot enhance soul power and can only maintain youthful appearance, its popularity is certainly no less than the Soul-Destroying Pill, and may even be much better.
Those noble ladies may not care about the improvement of their soul power, but they care a lot about their appearance. In order to maintain eternal youth, they are willing to spend any amount of gold soul coins.
When Tang Yuehua saw Xiao Mu accept the gift, she immediately became more friendly.
"I see that the Palace Master doesn't have anyone to serve him. The maids and servants that I, Yuexuan, have trained are pretty good. If Palace Master Xiao needs them, I can send a few."
In addition to teaching etiquette to the nobles, Yuexuan also trained a group of maids and servants, who were deeply loved by the nobles of all sizes in the Tiandou Empire.
"That's not necessary." Xiao Mu refused.
Seeing this, Tang Yuehua stopped talking about this matter and said:
"I have a humble request, I wonder if Palace Master Xiao would listen to it."
"Just tell me." Xiao Mu knew that Tang Yuehua would not come to visit so early for no reason.
Tang Yuehua said with shame on her face:
"Among those who offended the Soul Palace last night, one was an old friend of mine. He deserved death for his actions, but he only had this one son. I hope to have his body returned to me."
Xiao Mu said calmly, "Master Tang Xuan is late. I've already had the Fire Falcon Guardian burn all those things that are an eyesore. Now I'm afraid even the ashes have been blown away."
Tang Yuehua was not disappointed either.
She had not come here expecting to take away Tai Nuo's body this time, she just wanted to give an explanation to Tai Tan, and the most important thing was to establish a good relationship with the Soul Palace.
"This is all the fault of my old friend's son. It's his fate that he has ended up like this. I will not bother you, Palace Master."
Tang Yuehua did not mention the Soul-Breaking Pill, but anyone with a bit of common sense would know that the Soul Palace would not release the pill before the auction.
"Master Tang Xuan, take care. I won't see you off."
"I dare not trouble the Palace Master." Tang Yuehua said.
Tang Yuehua had just gone out when Huo Yuan came again.
"Palace Master, the leader of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Fengzhi, has arrived."
Tang Yuehua paused slightly.
The Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect arrived so quickly, and the sect leader actually came in person.
Although Tang Yuehua is a member of the Haotian Sect, not many people know that she is from the Haotian Sect. Moreover, her martial soul has mutated and she is not qualified to represent the Haotian Sect.
One step slow, every step slow.
If the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect and the Soul Palace become friends, the Haotian Sect will be in a bad situation.
But the key issue now is that the Haotian Sect is closed to the outside world. If they go out in public, it may attract the attention of the Spirit Hall.
Because of Tang Hao's incident, a conflict broke out between the Haotian Sect and the Spirit Hall. The final result was that the Haotian Sect went into hiding and expelled Tang Hao from the sect.
Once the Haotian Sect reappears, it is very likely that the Spirit Hall will come knocking again, which would be troublesome.
If the Haotian Sect does not come out, it will miss the best development opportunity. If it comes out, it may be attacked by the Spirit Hall. Its single-mindedness will lead to a double-edged sword.
Tang Yuehua felt worried about her elder brother, not knowing what decision he would make.
"Oh, it would be great if my second brother was here, so that my eldest brother would have someone to talk to." Tang Yuehua said sadly.
