People are Fighting to Break Their Diaries! They Forced Me to Eat Soft Food

194: Chapter 194 Fire Child: Is it so hard to make you owe someone a favor?”Universe Lockdown!”

Just as the massive palm was about to descend, the space directly above the core area of Zixiao City suddenly tore open. Two figures dressed exactly alike stepped out from within and acted together to create a spatial barrier. Yin and Yang energies intertwined, attempting to block the descending palm.

”Two peak Dou Zong.” A man’s laughter rang out in the sky: ”Heh heh, you two must be the guardian elders of Jia Nan Academy, The Two Elders Qian Bai.”

”You can indeed walk sideways in the Black-Corner Region, but before my Hall of Souls, unless Mang Tianchi comes in person, you are not worthy of notice.”

”Break!”

As the man’s voice fell, the massive blood-colored palm exploded with a bang, turning into a sea of blood mist that rapidly spread, seemingly intending to engulf the entire Zixiao City.

”Today, everyone in Zixiao City must die to be buried with the Soul Envoy and protectors of my Hall of Souls who recently died.”

The Hall Master of this branch of the Hall of Souls was named Chilian, and his subordinates revered him as Venerable Chilian.

Originally, he was in seclusion, attempting to break through to the four-star Dou Zun level. If he succeeded, he would have a chance to be transferred back to the Western Region of the Central Plains.

However, the Deputy Hall Master sent a message telling him that more than half of the subordinates in the branch had been lost during this period. After investigation, it was discovered that the perpetrator was the same person: the Deputy City Lord of Zixiao City, Yun Yun.

As for Zixiao City and Yun Yun, Venerable Chilian had never even heard of them. But as the Deputy Hall Master recounted recent events, he immediately realized that Zixiao City was a huge threat, so he came out of seclusion, prepared to destroy it with his own hands and capture Xiao Ting.

A person surnamed Xiao who displayed such genius, and who also seemed to know the whereabouts of Venerable Yao, Yao Chen—capturing him and delivering him to the Hall Master would be a great achievement.

”Chilian Furnace!”

Crimson aura surged wildly. A harsh sound appeared on the spatial barrier that The Two Elders Qian Bai had condensed, and it began to dissolve at a rate visible to the naked eye.

”A Dou Zun is indeed a Dou Zun.”

The Two Elders Qian Bai had serious expressions. They simultaneously began to form hand seals and each took out a jade pendant.

These jade pendants, when combined, could unleash the technique left behind by Mang Tianchi, reaching the Dou Zun level. They were extremely precious.

”The two of you need not act. With me here, Zixiao City is safe.”

Seeing that The Two Elders Qian Bai were about to use their trump card, Huo Zhi immediately spoke up to remind them.

She could not let The Two Elders Qian Bai steal the opportunity to make Xiao Ting owe a favor.

”There is another Dou Zun!”

A strange look flashed in the eyes of The Two Elders Qian Bai.

They really hadn’t expected that there would also be a Dou Zun behind Xiao Ting. It was truly worth them valuing Xiao Ting’s talent, acting to form a bond of goodwill, and even taking out the Dou Zun-level technique Mang Tianchi had left them as a trump card.

”Then please...”

The Two Elders Qian Bai replied, preparing to leave.

Huo Zhi mobilized the Dou Qi in her body, raised her hand to manifest the Red Lotus Karma Fire, and was about to attack.

But the next moment, she was surprised to find that the Red Lotus Karma Fire flickered and then voluntarily returned into her body.

”What is the meaning of this?” Huo Zhi blinked in surprise and suspicion.

The next moment, the Red Lotus Karma Fire transmitted some information back to her.

Translated, it meant: The boss wants to come out, the little brother cannot steal the limelight.

But where would the Red Lotus Karma Fire have a boss?

Could it be...

A guess surged in Huo Zhi’s heart.

Just at this moment, dozens of spatial cracks appeared above Zixiao City, within which purple flames flashed like thunder, striking directly at the blood-colored mist.

In an instant, those blood-colored mists dissipated like the tide, as if they had encountered a nemesis.

Purple thunder rolled within the dark clouds in the sky, cleansing the blood-red color from them.

The power of the thunder began to condense, containing terrifying energy. Everyone felt as heavy as if a giant sword were hanging over their heads.

”What, what is going on?”

”That blood mist seemed capable of devouring vitality; how did it suddenly disappear?”

”Living in Zixiao City is too exciting; the invading enemies are getting stronger and stronger.”

”The last time Earth Demon Old Ghost attacked, there wasn’t such a commotion. Is this a high-level Dou Zong attacking this time?”

”Use your brain when thinking about problems. The person attacking is from the Hall of Souls. They pointed out that the two seniors protecting Zixiao City are the guardian elders of Jia Nan Academy, The Two Elders Qian Bai, who possess peak Dou Zong strength. Obviously, the person attacking is a Dou Zun.”

”Hiss, a Dou Zun expert? Even in the Central Plains, they must be few and far between, right?”

”As far as I know, while Dou Zun and Dou Zong experts are rare, they aren’t so rare that they are unheard of. It’s just that the places they frequent and the areas they explore are not places ordinary people can set foot in.”

”Indeed, apart from the Dou Zong and Dou Zun that top factions use openly to deter scoundrels, there must be many hidden experts, just like The Two Elders Qian Bai of Jia Nan Academy.”

”I just want to know, what is the situation now!”

”...”

The last sentence was also the curiosity in everyone’s hearts.

What exactly is happening now!?

”A Dou Zun!?” Venerable Chilian’s eyes narrowed as he asked: ”Friend, this Venerable is from the Hall of Souls. I am here to capture Xiao Ting and Yun Yun of Zixiao City. It is not easy to cultivate to the Dou Zun level; why must you intervene?”

”Hehehe!” A crisp laughter rang out in the sky: ”You want to capture me and my dao companion, yet you won’t let me fight back? Wouldn’t it be better if I just committed suicide?”

Everyone: ?

Why does this sound so dizzying, and why is there so much information?

”Capture you and your dao companion?” Venerable Chilian was the first to react, incredulously asking: ”Xiao Ting!?”

Didn’t his subordinates say that Xiao Ting had only just broken through to Dou Zong half a year ago?

How is he already a Dou Zun now!?

”You guessed right, but there is no prize!”

A voice that chilled Venerable Chilian to the depths of his soul rang out close to his ear.

”When!” Venerable Chilian instinctively mobilized the Dou Qi in his body, transforming it into a blood-colored palm, and struck out.

Space shattered in a patch, and terrifying energy spread toward the surroundings.

”Bang!”

A palm wrapped in purple flames seemed to strike out lightly, colliding with Venerable Chilian’s blood-colored palm.

”Rumble!”

A massive amount of Dou Qi swirled between the palms of Xiao Ting and Venerable Chilian. The shockwave generated by the collision of their terrifying power instantly spread outward. In the sky above Zixiao City, a spatial rift sweeping across several miles appeared, within which were visible spatial turbulences.

Hiss!

Countless people gasped.

Is this a clash between Dou Zun experts?

Such a close-range collision can shatter space for miles.

If a powerful Dou Technique were to be condensed and unleashed, it would likely be enough to easily destroy a town.

Furthermore, unlike the destruction caused by Dou Wang, Dou Huang, and Dou Zong experts, who plow through a town and take some time to clear it, this would directly erase the town and the living beings within it from the map.

But what was most terrifying was... the City Lord of Zixiao City, Xiao Ting, had broken through to Dou Zun!?

Wasn’t he just a Dou Zong half a year ago?

Even the most talented disciple of Jia Nan Academy wouldn’t break through from Great Dou Master to Dou Ling that fast, right?

”Three-star Dou Zun, the strength is passable.” A smile appeared in Xiao Ting’s eyes: ”Killing you and gifting you to Yun’er, she should be very happy. It can also help Cai Li improve her strength.”

Venerable Chilian.

”In order to prevent you from resisting, I am sorry, but I cannot hold back.”

Purple flames appeared in Xiao Ting’s eyes.

The next moment, his body instantly expanded to ten zhang in size (thirty meters).

It was not that he couldn’t become larger, but facing a human cultivator who was only half a zhang tall, there was no need to become any larger.

”Bang!”
