Douluo Continent: The Evil-Eyed Dragon God, Many Women, Many Blessings

Chapter 194 Damn Evil Soul Master!

"Hehehehe! I am just a wandering monk who happened to be here. Leave your storage soul tool behind and you can get lost."

What a coincidence! They really did follow us all the way from the auction!
Old Ma's heart sank, his eyes flashed slightly, and he said in a deep voice, "What arrogance! You want things from my Sun Moon Empire with just a word? You're really not taking us seriously."

A hint of agitation suddenly crept into the voice: "Sparing your life is already an act of deference from this old man to your Sun Moon Empire, don't be ungrateful!"

A flicker of anxiety crossed Old Ma's eyes. While the items he'd acquired at today's auction were important, they paled in comparison to his own life. He'd lived for decades, dealing with all sorts of people. Although this man kept promising to spare his life, the hidden killing intent emanating from him was unmistakable to this seasoned veteran!
Come to think of it, even if he were a Title Douluo, how could he dare to leave himself behind as the only person he had ever met after stealing such a valuable treasure?
Meanwhile, dozens of meters behind the man in black, in another corner, Huo Yuhao was fully activating his simulation skills, watching the show with great interest. He secretly admired, "That sinister tone, that barely concealed killing intent, and that hidden madness... tsk tsk, I never expected that the sect leader's acting skills could rival those of Zha Zha Hui. If this were in my previous life, he might have been a textbook example from the Beijing Film Academy."

"Fine, I've lost today. Here, take the stuff!" Old Ma suddenly said angrily, then took off the storage soul tool ring on his right thumb and threw it violently at the man in black.

The next instant, two streaks of silver light suddenly erupted from the soul-guided jet behind him, and he shot backward like a soul-guided cannonball.

"Trying to run? Heh heh heh, you ant-like thing, do you think you can escape?"

To Ma Lao's surprise, the man in black didn't even glance at the ring that swept past him. As if he had been prepared, he suddenly swung his right hand forward, and a burst of condensed true energy, as powerful as a pillar of heaven, shot out and struck Ma Lao's head!
"Boom!"

Like a hammer striking a dull drum, Old Ma's running figure suddenly lost all control, his face hitting the ground hard, and he fell down without a sound!

"Hmm? It went silent after just one moment? Hehehe, a Soul Master is just a Soul Master, what a waste of your Soul Douluo cultivation, you couldn't even withstand one of my attacks." The man in black extended his spiritual power and swept it over Old Ma, feeling that Old Ma's heartbeat had stopped, and said with surprise and sarcasm.

Then, he leisurely walked back, picked up the storage soul tool ring on the ground, swept it with his spiritual power, and became somewhat frenzied: "Hahahaha, with this 100,000-year-old soul beast embryo, I will also have the opportunity to achieve twin martial souls!"

With a "whoosh," the figure in black vanished instantly in the secret passage. The whale oil lamps in the passage calmed down again, and everything returned to silence, leaving only Old Ma's body lying alone on the cold ground.

Whether it was an illusion or not, after a long time, the body's fingers actually twitched slightly!
"Hiss—luckily, I was well-prepared and always cautious. Otherwise, a Title Douluo-level evil soul master, judging by the intensity of that attack, would probably be at least level 93 or higher. If this guy hadn't been mainly focused on that ring, I would have been in grave danger this time." Old Ma threw the broken hairpin fragments from his hair to the ground and muttered with lingering fear.

This is a Turtle Breath Hairpin he crafted himself, an eighth-level defensive soul tool. Once automatically triggered, it subtly and instantly forms a transparent soul power shield on the upper body, dispersing incoming attacks across the entire upper body. In addition, it has a hidden function: upon triggering, the owner can decide whether to activate the hidden Turtle Breath Technique, reducing the person's life force to a minimum, creating a state of suspended animation!
“Although he tried his best to conceal it, the faint chilling and evil aura emanating from him, along with that unique, uncontrollable manic emotion, strongly suggests he’s a malevolent spirit master. Did he not want to offend the Sun Moon Empire? Could it be… the Holy Spirit Cult?” Old Ma sat on the ground, regulating his breathing, carefully recalling the events that had just transpired. His face was extremely grim. After a moment, Old Ma stood up again, his eyes flickering as he stared uncertainly into the darkness ahead. Then, he silently turned and walked away. Although the man in black was most likely already far away, he still dared not go any further: “Damn malevolent spirit masters! These guys are all insane lunatics. I’d better take another route back. Anyway, the item is no longer in my hands. This time, surely no one will follow me anymore?”

In a small grove of trees ten miles outside Xingluo City, an old man and a young man were sitting in the dense thicket, whispering to each other.

"Yuhao, why do I have to spare that old guy's life? He's from the Sun Moon Empire anyway, wouldn't it be cleaner to just kill him?"

Huo Yuhao smiled and said, "Information brought back from a near-death experience is more credible. Besides, the Sun Moon Empire's royal family has always had an inextricable relationship with the Holy Spirit Cult. Wouldn't it be better to plant a thorn in their side?"

Poison Undying was stunned: "Holy Spirit Cult? Is that the evil soul master organization you mentioned before? The Sun Moon Empire dares to do such a thing?"

Huo Yuhao nodded: "Based on the intelligence I obtained, they are indeed colluding. As for the reason, well, it's because the Sun Moon Empire lacks top-tier Soul Masters. Compared with the Douluo Three Kingdoms, their shortcomings in high-end combat power are too obvious. If they don't turn to the Holy Spirit Cult, where else can they recruit experts of this level?"

A cold glint flashed in Du Busi's eyes: "These guys are really courting death, associating with evil soul masters. If this is exposed, the royal family will be disgraced and the people will be filled with resentment!"

Huo Yuhao shook his head and said, "That's true, but since they dared to do this, they naturally won't let anyone easily find fault with them. Making accusations against the royal family without evidence could easily backfire. Forget about them. Let's wait until that Old Ma goes back and let the Sun Moon Empire fight like dogs. Let's take a look at the spoils of war. With Old Ma's status, his storage soul tool should have quite a few good things in it, haha!"

At this point, even the sect leader, Poison Undying, became somewhat expectant. While taking out the ring, he asked curiously, "Speaking of which, how did you know that old guy had a defensive soul tool on his head?"

Huo Yuhao chuckled: "Ning Tian in our team is the little princess of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School. Their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul has the ability to sense treasures. She once mentioned to me that she sensed a familiar aura from Elder Ma's head, which was the scent of the Black Water Turtle Soul Bone, which is over ten thousand years old."

After a long night of hard work, it's finally time to reap the rewards!
