Douluo Continent: Starting from Awakening the Vermilion Bird Martial Soul

Just as he was about to climb over the wall, a scorching heat rushed towards him, followed by a powerful pressure that pressed down on him, forcing him to the ground.

Di Hong flapped the Vermilion Bird wings on his back in mid-air, looking at the man who was prostrate on the ground. The other party was not a Soul Master.

"Are you from the City Lord's Mansion?"

The man didn't speak, but just gritted his teeth and remained silent.

Folding its wings, Di Hong landed in front of him.

"Who sent you to spy on us?"

The man remained silent.

Di Hong snorted coldly.

"You have a pretty tough mouth."

Then he amplified his own aura.

"Kakaka!"

The man was just an ordinary person, but under the pressure of Emperor Hong Soul Douluo, the bones in his body began to break.

"what!"

The man cried out in pain.

"I said, I said."

Di Hong withdrew the oppressive aura he had released.

"Go ahead."

Knowing that Di Hong was not someone to be trifled with, the man explained in detail why he had been monitoring Di Hong. In fact, he was not monitoring Di Hong, but rather Tang Hao and his group, and there were three of them monitoring them.

Because they discovered Di Hong and Tang Yuehua, one person was left to keep watch, while the other two went back to the city lord's mansion, and the other stayed with Tang Hao and the others.

Tang Hao and Tang Xiao were discovered as soon as they entered the city.

As for why they were being followed, the man didn't know. He only said that some Soul Masters had recently gone missing, so he had to secretly monitor any unfamiliar Soul Masters to ensure the smooth running of the Hundred Flowers Festival. The surveillance would be lifted after the festival ended.

Seeing that he couldn't get any information from him, Di Hong let him go.

After returning to the hotel, Tang Yuehua also came back.

"I asked around, and the city lord did indeed have a son, but that son died at the age of six, after his martial soul awakened."

"Died prematurely?" Di Hong was puzzled. How could someone die after awakening their martial soul? Could awakening a martial soul really kill someone?

What kind of martial spirit must that be, Dark Demon Evil God Tiger?

The Black Lotus Martial Soul is of slightly below average quality. It's absolutely impossible for such a Martial Soul to cause someone to die from overeating.

"How did his son die?"

"I don't know." Tang Yuehua shook her head.

"Anyway, after the martial soul awakened, the person disappeared. It seems to be because the martial soul mutated. Because many nobles in the city were present at the awakening ceremony."

"If I were alive today, I would be twenty-six years old."

Di Hong frowned slightly.

The city lord's son is dead, and after his martial soul awakened. Even if his martial soul mutated, he couldn't possibly be dead.

Many people have mutated martial souls. He has a mutated martial soul, Tang Yuehua has a mutated martial soul, and Yu Xiaogang has a mutated martial soul. They are all perfectly fine and healthy. The only difference is that the other two cannot cultivate.

Tang Yuehua can now cultivate as well.

Yu Xiaogang will probably stay at level 29, the Great Soul Master.

Chapter 112 Hanayo's Panic

"Aren't we making too much of a fuss?"

Tang Yuehua walked to the table, picked up the teapot and poured herself a cup of tea, then poured one for Di Hong.

Di Hong chuckled as he took the teacup that was handed to him.

"We have to make a big show of it; how can we alert the enemy if we don't stir up trouble?"

"I see." The intelligent Tang Yuehua immediately understood Di Hong's meaning. He did it on purpose, so that the person behind the scenes would reveal a flaw and he would show himself.

In the past, investigations by the Spirit Hall and the Empire were always announced in advance. But this time is different. This time, Tang Hao and Tang Xiao came in their personal capacities, which makes the situation different.

The City Lord's Mansion was unaware of this beforehand. Their arrival was very sudden, and given that a Soul Master had just gone missing, if it was indeed the City Lord's Mansion's doing, then Hua Yang would certainly not remain indifferent.

"What happened to the person who was monitoring us?" Tang Yuehua asked.

“I let him go. We’re not the kind of people who kill without hesitation. How can we kill people so easily when we’re on our honeymoon?” After saying that, Di Hong drank the tea in his cup in one gulp.

Tang Yuehua rolled her eyes at him.

"Aren't you ashamed when you say that?"

"Have you killed few people?"

Di Hong raised his hands and then took the sword out of his soul tool.

"These hands, and this sword, are stained with blood, but I will not repent for it."

"Whether it is right or wrong, future generations will judge."

"Besides, how many of the people I've killed were innocent?"

I'm afraid not.

"Sometimes, I have to kill people."

As he said this, he walked to the window and looked at the people coming and going outside.

"I am a sinful person, and perhaps all that will remain for me in the future is condemnation, but I don't care."

I only do what I believe is right.

"The person who was monitoring us didn't know what he was doing. He just thought he was monitoring unfamiliar Soul Masters because of their disappearance."

"Therefore, I have no reason to kill him."

Tang Yuehua sat down, carefully considering Di Hong's words. His words contained a profound meaning, yet it was easy to understand that what he said was not directed at the person monitoring them, and that he let the person go not out of kindness.

Being too kind sometimes leads to a short lifespan.

She actually had a guess in her heart about what Di Hong wanted to do.

After all, the strong are never willing to be inferior to others unless there is someone stronger than them. She doesn't think the Heaven Dou Empire has that kind of strong person. Not counting sects, even the Spirit Hall is much stronger than the Heaven Dou Empire.

The Heaven Dou Empire doesn't have a single Title Douluo, and Xue Ye is hoping that Di Hong will become a Title Douluo to boost the empire's prestige.

She wasn't interested in what Di Hong did; all she knew was that she was Di Hong's wife and all she needed to do was stand by his side, regardless of what he did, whether it was right or wrong.

"Where are my eldest and second brothers?" Di Hong asked, turning his head.

Tang Yuehua shook her head.

"do not know."

After parting ways at the tea stall, she didn't know where Tang Xiao and Tang Hao went; they were probably still investigating somewhere.

Tang Hao and his group arrived at dinner time that evening.

As soon as he sat down, Tang Hao picked up his chopsticks and started eating.

"I've been investigating all day, and I'm starving."

Tang Yuehua handed a pair of chopsticks to Tang Xiao: "Have you guys found anything?"

"No." Tang Xiao shook his head.

"We couldn't find any useful information. The city lord has a very good reputation in Huacheng, and he governs very well."

"Yuehua did find out some useful information," Di Hong said.

The two looked at him, and then at Tang Yuehua.

"what's the message?"

Tang Yuehua told them about the city lord's son.

After listening, Tang Xiao stroked his beard and pondered.

"He died after awakening his martial soul? How is that possible?"

"How could a perfectly healthy person die after their martial soul mutates after awakening?"

He had never heard of such a thing before. Even if someone died, there had to be a reason, right? He had never heard of dying from illness, being murdered, or an accident. He knew perfectly well that someone could die from a mutated spirit.

Even though his own younger sister's martial soul mutated, he was fine, and his brother-in-law's martial soul also mutated.

"Is it possible that the city lord's son didn't die at all?" Tang Hao voiced his conjecture.

"I don't know. When the city lord's son died, a grand funeral was held. His tomb is still in Baihua Mountain outside the city."
