Douluo Continent II: The Peerless Tang Sect: I, Huo Yuhao, join the Sun Moon Sect.

Chapter 740 A Humiliating Disgrace, Xu Jiawei Spits Blood!

Of course, a significantly slower pace of movement does not mean that the movement has stopped.

To be honest, Long Xiaoyao didn't expect Kong Deming to be so difficult to deal with.

Although the opponent's level 10 soul tool, the Silver Moon Divine Light Shield, is powerful, it relies too much on spatial power.

Therefore, Ye Xishui did not hesitate to use the self-created soul skill passed down from the Holy Spirit Cult—the Blood Sea Vengeful Spirit Spear.

This self-created soul skill can be used by multiple people in a coordinated manner, and it can also be used by a single person. Of course, if used by a single person, then one must be a Limit Douluo.

Its function is simple: to block out space and infuse the target with a large amount of resentment.

According to the Holy Spirit Cult ancestor who created this soul skill, even a Limit Douluo with a second soul core that is a spatial soul core cannot tear through space to escape immediately when facing the Blood Sea Vengeful Spirit Spear. Instead, their body and the surrounding space will be frozen by the blood sea formed by the vengeful spirit for a moment.

To use this soul skill, Ye Xishui not only expended a large amount of soul power, but also burned a large number of vengeful spirits she had accumulated for the Death God Tower, which can be said to be a huge investment.

Kong Deming's Silver Moon Divine Light Shield was indeed damaged under the attack of the Blood Sea Vengeful Spirit Spear.

However, to Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao's surprise, Kong Deming actually used his second awakening of his martial soul, causing his strength to soar.

To be honest, in their minds, only the original martial soul could undergo a second awakening in Douluo Continent. They never expected that Kong Deming, with his thick eyebrows and big eyes, could also undergo a second awakening of his martial soul.

As a level 98 Super Douluo with dual martial souls, Kong Deming's second awakening of his martial souls did indeed put some pressure on the two of them. Fortunately, the disadvantage of the second awakening of martial souls is that the duration is limited, and Kong Deming does not have a second soul core, only one soul core, which does have a deficiency in terms of strength.

The three fought and advanced, and eventually, Ye Xishui instructed Long Xiaoyao to seize the opportunity and rush to the front line.

It wasn't that Ye Xishui wanted to stay behind alone to face Kong Deming; it was mainly because Kong Deming was keeping a close watch on her, almost to the point of being on guard.

Only Long Xiaoyao could find an opportunity to break free from Kong Deming's obstruction and rush to the front line, while Ye Xishui did her best to hold Kong Deming back.

Soon, on his return journey, Long Xiaoyao found Ye Xishui and Kong Deming locked in battle.

He joined the battle, leading Ye Xishui in a retreat to defend against Kong Deming's attacks. At the same time, he said, "Xishui, the allied forces at the front have suffered a crushing defeat and are in complete disarray. We can now safely guard the front and wait for Xuanzi to return to defend. Then we can personally kill Xuanzi and avenge Xiaowu and the others."

"Kong Deming, let's stop. There's no need for us to keep fighting. If things really escalate, at least two of us will die!"

The objective has been achieved, so there is no need to continue fighting Kong Deming. After all, continuing to fight this person would be counterproductive!

Upon hearing this, Kong Deming frowned, somewhat doubtful. In fact, he did believe that the Sun and Moon Army would definitely defeat the Allied Forces, but hearing these words from Long Xiaoyao made him doubt his own judgment on the war situation.

He had known Long Xiaoyao for many years and knew his character. Under normal circumstances, the other party would not lie about such things. However, whenever Ye Xishui was involved, Long Xiaoyao would change.

"Hmph, you think you can just start a fight and then stop? Wouldn't that make me lose face? You should know that you started this fight! No matter what, you can't leave here now!" Kong Deming deliberately showed anger on his face.

He was stalling for time, waiting for the soldiers at the front to arrive and report the current situation to him.

Long Xiaoyao felt helpless, but he didn't want to continue fighting with Kong Deming. He wasn't afraid of death, but he was afraid that the old man Kong Deming might act rashly and try to take Ye Xishui down with him.

So all he could do was comfort Ye Xishui and wait silently for a while.

Soon, a level nine Soul Master found Kong Deming and gave him a detailed report on the situation at the front and the heroic deeds Huo Yuhao had performed.

Kong Deming laughed heartily: "As expected of Yuhao, he actually captured Xu Jiujiu alive amidst ten thousand troops and even had Marshal Xu Jiujiu persuade him to surrender. This undoubtedly caused all the forces involved in the allied forces to lose face. Let's go back and hold a victory celebration banquet for Yuhao, and discuss how to deal with Xu Jiujiu, this prisoner of war!" With that, he left with the ninth-level Soul Master.

Long Xiaoyao watched Kong Deming leave, then turned to Ye Xishui beside him: "Xishui, I..."

Before he could finish speaking, a male voice came from not far away.

"Supreme Elder, Chief Elder, something terrible has happened! The Holy Sect headquarters has been blown up by Xuanzi!"

"What!" Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao's expressions changed drastically as they looked at the newcomer.

The newcomer was dressed in a black robe, appeared to be a middle-aged man, and was one of the eleven honorees of the Holy Spirit Church.

Even with his titled Douluo cultivation, he was panting heavily, clearly having flown here at full speed.

"Explain yourself clearly!" Long Xiaoyao said sternly.

When the Eleventh Elder noticed Ye Xishui's almost murderous gaze, he secretly groaned inwardly, but still honestly recounted in detail how the Holy Spirit Cult headquarters was bombed, how the Evil Eye Tyrant appeared, and how everyone judged that the attacker was Xuanzi.

"Damn Xuanzi, once you fall into my hands, I'll show you what cruelty is!" Ye Xishui gritted her teeth, her anger rising, and her killing intent towards Xuanzi had reached its peak.

However, she had no intention of returning to Mingdu. After all, she still had to block Xuanzi's return to the front line. If she returned to Mingdu, she would miss a good opportunity.

Star Luo Empire, Star Luo City.

royal palace.

A coalition general, clad in blood-stained armor, knelt on the ground, head bowed, reporting to Xu Jiawei on what was happening at the front.

After listening to this person's report, Xu Jiawei felt a surge of anger, despair, and shame.

"The allied forces were defeated. Jiu Jiu and Senior Manyi were captured alive by Huo Yuhao and became prisoners. In fact, Jiu Jiu even went to persuade the allied forces to surrender, which made him a disgrace to the ancestors!"

His face turned pale and then bluish, he felt as if a heavy stone was pressing on his chest, his breathing became rapid, and he was overcome with anger.

Finally, Xu Jiawei coughed up a mouthful of blood, and then his whole body began to sway like a candle in the wind, unable to stand steadily, as if he would fall to the ground at any moment.

"His Majesty!"

Zhao Zhehan, the sharp-eyed head of the Xingluo Royal Offering Hall, immediately flashed to Xu Jiawei's side.

He looked anxious, supported Xu Jiawei, and ran his soul power over Xu Jiawei's body for a while, but found nothing seriously wrong.

Zhao Zhehan breathed a slight sigh of relief, but did not let his guard down.

After all, he wasn't good at healing others, so matters concerning the Star Luo Emperor's health naturally needed to be handled by a Soul Master skilled in healing.

So he shouted to the outside world, "Where is the imperial physician? Summon the imperial physician!"

The so-called imperial physicians are mostly support-type and food-type soul masters, and they all possess soul skills to heal others.
