Douluo: Martial Soul Body, I’m True Master

Chapter 112: The Shock of Snake Lance Douluo, Gu Yue’s Family

Spirit Hall is currently powerful and ambitious. They already possess a massive advantage and reputation because they provide subsidies to Soul Masters. If Grandmaster were to join Spirit Hall, it would result in a heaven-shaking transformation and boost to Spirit Hall’s influence in the Soul Master World. By then, it might truly be a case of a single call receiving a hundred responses from Soul Masters.

“Fortunately, the First Prince of Heaven Dou is sharp enough to have recruited this Tang Shan and Su Yuntao in advance. If they were truly allowed to come into contact with the core of Spirit Hall and let Spirit Hall notice their connection with Grandmaster, the consequences would be unimaginable.”

By this time, the auction had already officially begun, but Ning Fengzhi had absolutely no heart to pay attention to the auction items; his face was full of relief.

“It will be discovered sooner or later.” Sword Douluo also realized the invisible crisis that Tang Shan might bring. He said in a deep voice: “The millennium second spirit ring is one thing; major factions can cultivate one if they bleed a little. But as far as I know, no faction has successfully cultivated a first thousand-year spirit ring yet. Once Tang Shan’s achievement is exposed, it will inevitably attract the attention of Spirit Hall. By then, discovering their connection with Grandmaster will be a matter of time.”

Ning Fengzhi tapped the armrest of his luxurious chair, his eyes sharp, his gaze like a torch.

“We must hide it for as long as we can; it cannot be exposed in the short term. We need to buy time for the First Prince of Heaven Dou and try our best to increase Tang Shan’s sense of belonging to the Heaven Dou Empire. Also, being able to meet Tang Shan, could the First Prince of Heaven Dou be destined for greatness? It seems I must propose becoming the teacher of the First Prince of Heaven Dou to Your Majesty as soon as possible; I cannot wait any longer.”

“If Tang Shan’s true background is exposed by then, it might tempt quite a few old geezers in Spirit Hall. Although I don’t know the inside story of the Hall of Worship, if even one of them makes a move, I may not be able to keep Tang Shan safe.” Sword Douluo Chen Xin stood to the side, reminding Ning Fengzhi.

Sigh! Ning Fengzhi rubbed his forehead, feeling that the current situation was truly quite tricky.

Finally, he made a decision: “Forget about that group of old men in the Hall of Worship of Spirit Hall. They don’t leave their doors for over a decade at a time. We can only gamble that they haven’t taken Tang Shan to heart, and we can only gamble that even if they know, they won’t bully the small with the big.”

“Last time Tang Hao hammered the previous Pope to death, they didn’t even move. Perhaps it will be the same this time. Regardless of how Spirit Hall might respond after learning the truth in the future, our goal right now is to win over Tang Shan’s Family and win over the First Prince of Heaven Dou.”

When the last rays of the setting sun spilled across the horizon like molten red gold, plating the undulating silhouette of the forest in a layer of tragic and magnificent orange-red, the three of them, including Tang Shan, finally arrived at the edge of the Star Dou Great Forest.

The dense Origin Qi in the air began to thin out, the density of the towering ancient trees gradually decreased, the roars of the Soul Beasts faded into the distance, and in their place were traces of human activity.

Rustle, rustle, rustle! The dense canopy was pushed aside by Tang Shan, leaving a clear path for Gu Yue behind him. The sharp thorns scraped against his skin without leaving a single mark.

“It’s about time; we are about to exit the Star Dou Great Forest.” Relying on his powerful eyesight, Snake Lance Douluo vaguely glimpsed a small black dot in the far distance; that was the outline of the supply town on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest.

Gu Yue, who was following behind Tang Shan, paused slightly, then quickened her pace to reach Snake Lance Douluo’s side: “Senior, my Family is almost here.”

Snake Lance Douluo nodded gently, feeling a bit curious in his heart, wondering how strong Gu Yue’s Family was and whether they could be recruited under Qian Renxue.

Tang Shan, who was following behind, stiffened, but managed to restore his state to normal by relying on his precise control over his body. He told himself that even if he prepared for battle, he and Snake Lance Douluo would definitely have no power to resist. Rather than tensing up and arousing suspicion, it was better to act as if he knew nothing. He could only hope that the favor he had built with Gu Yue in this short time would play some role.

“How did your Family find you? Is there some secret method of contact?” While Snake Lance Douluo curiously asked Gu Yue, his own mental force quietly spread out, waiting for the arrival of Gu Yue’s Family.

In his view, it would be the limit if Gu Yue’s Family had a Soul Douluo. Relying on his strength at the Titled Douluo level, he could still exert a certain amount of pressure on the other party. Even if the other party discovered his mental force, he was at most just perceiving the surrounding environment and had no intention of probing their background, so it wouldn’t cause conflict.

“There is a secret method to sense how far they are from me.” Gu Yue explained, then turned and walked to Tang Shan’s side: “In the future, wherever you are, I might come to find you after some time.”

Hearing Gu Yue’s question, Tang Shan breathed a sigh of relief. Since she said so, there was a high probability that they could leave safely this time. Although holding onto a powerful thigh was comfortable, there was still a certain amount of danger.

“I should stay in Heaven Dou City for the next few years and won’t be going out. If you want to find me, you can come to the residence of the First Prince of Heaven Dou.”

“Okay, I’ll remember that.” A faint smile slowly bloomed on Gu Yue’s indifferent, pretty face. Although the smile was not as brilliant and dazzling as fireworks, it was as clear as a spring, carrying a purity that cleansed the soul, quietly seeping into one’s heart.

Her waterfall-like black hair fluttered gently in the breeze, making her look even more ethereal.

Boom! Before Snake Lance Douluo could react, he felt his mental force suffer a slight shock. His face was full of horror, and without hesitation, he grabbed Tang Shan and Gu Yue by their shoulders with one hand each and retreated rapidly.

He had no chance to release his Martial Soul and Soul Ring at all. Upon feeling that terrifying aura, Snake Lance Douluo almost poured out the Soul Power in his body, dragging the two of them and escaping hundreds of meters away.

“Di Tian, you scared them.” Bi Ji looked at Di Tian beside her with some helplessness. The aura in the distance, which was still moving away, proved that the scare Snake Lance Douluo received was indeed not light.

The black-haired middle-aged Beast God Di Tian was also a bit embarrassed: “I just wanted to intimidate that human Titled Douluo-level powerhouse, but it seems he was a bit over-scared. If it really doesn’t work, I’ll just give him a compensation gift.”

As he spoke, his palm turned into a pitch-black Dragon claw, reaching into the space in front of him, groping for something.

“Then I will stop them from running out first; if they run into the forest outside, the commotion would be a bit too big.” Bi Ji was somewhat helpless. Her figure turned into a beam of green light full of vitality, chasing in the direction where Snake Lance Douluo retreated.

The wild wind howled, and the scenery around them flew by rapidly, with trees dragging out afterimages behind them.

The strong wind blew against Gu Yue and Tang Shan. Because he had to retreat at full speed, Snake Lance Douluo could not spare a portion of his Soul Power to protect them. Although the wind pressure did not cause any injury, their hair was definitely messy.

In the biting wind, Tang Shan subconsciously looked at Gu Yue. Combining the previous words of the other party and the reaction of Snake Lance Douluo, if there were no accidents, the only ones who could scare the other party were the Vicious Beast subordinates of the Silver Dragon King beside him.

Turning his head to look, although the scattered black hair covered most of her expression, the clarity and innocence in her eyes were still quite clear.

That innocent look made Tang Shan can’t help but doubt, did he guess wrong? Was it not her Vicious Beast subordinate who came, but a human powerhouse who happened to pass by with malicious intent?

“Sorry, that was rash just now, we have no malice.” In a gentle female voice, the emerald-green light orb caught up to the three of them in the blink of an eye. Before Snake Lance Douluo could react, the incomparably majestic life Soul Power poured out from the emerald light orb, almost instantly controlling the bodies of the three of them firmly.

A certain Auspicious Beast that had been held in Gu Yue’s arms was preparing to pounce towards the emerald light orb, but was quickly grabbed back by her.

Snake Lance Douluo’s expression was serious, his body tense, and he protected Tang Shan and the other behind him without hesitation.

The emerald light orb dissipated, revealing a woman full of vitality.

That was a woman with stunning beauty. A head of crystal-clear emerald-green long hair, like jade, hung down naturally. Green waves flowed in her eyes, as if containing the purest source of life in the world.

She wore a water-green long dress, and at the hem, it seemed as if countless green leaves were dancing in the breeze. Her arms were exposed, and her skin was as white as jade, emitting a heart-stopping, lustrous glow against the backdrop of the emerald halo.

The pair of wings behind her, condensed from life energy, flapped slowly, and every fluctuation filled the surrounding air with vibrant life.

“Hello, I am Gu Yue’s Family member. I am here to take her away. I apologize for the offense just now; I am truly sorry.” Bi Ji said with an apologetic expression and a sincere tone.

Snake Lance Douluo did not answer immediately, but looked at Gu Yue, who was being carried by her.

“Senior, Aunt Bi is indeed my Family member.” Gu Yue blinked, then nodded, acknowledging Bi Ji’s identity, and incidentally hugged the Auspicious Beast in her arms tighter to prevent it from rushing out again.

Having received confirmation from Gu Yue, Snake Lance Douluo finally breathed a sigh of relief, descended slowly, and landed on the ground.

“I didn’t expect your Family’s strength to be so formidable.” Snake Lance Douluo couldn’t help but be shocked.

“We are a Soul Master Family living in seclusion in the Star Dou Great Forest. Life and death are both on this land, so basically no one on the continent knows of our existence.” Bi Ji took over from Gu Yue and explained slowly.

At the same time, the emerald light enveloped Snake Lance Douluo’s entire body. Before he could react, he clearly perceived that the Soul Power in his body was recovering at a terrifying speed. Not only that, but the exuberant life force also nourished his body, healing the hidden injuries he had not discovered before.

At the very least, she is a healing-type Soul Master at the Super Douluo level, Snake Lance Douluo judged, his inner emotions hard to calm for a long time.

You have to know, there isn’t a single healing-type Titled Douluo on the entire Douluo Continent. As a result, coming to the Star Dou Great Forest, he directly encountered a healing-type Soul Master at the Super Douluo level. How could he not be shocked in his heart?

Moreover, Gu Yue’s Family’s strength might be more than this. Recalling that profound dark force that easily shook his mental force, Snake Lance Douluo’s mood was somewhat heavy.

What a mysterious Family, what a mysterious faction. I don’t know if they will become an obstacle to the Young Lord’s plan. If it really doesn’t work, I’m afraid I’ll have to ask the various elders of the Hall of Worship to take action.

At this moment, Snake Lance Douluo no longer had the intention to recruit Gu Yue. What a joke! A Family with at least two Titled Douluo, and at least both are Super Douluo. Unless Xue Qinghe reveals her true identity, trying to recruit them in the name of the First Prince of Heaven Dou can only be called a fantasy.
