Douluo Continent V: Suppressing Tang San with the Might of the Super Beast God

"System, I have to criticize you this time..."

After looking at the information panel, Qiu Hougong frowned slightly and said, "Everyone is equal. How can you not display the full information of someone just because they have fewer scenes?"

"Ding! The system has adopted the host's suggestion, and this situation will not occur again in the future."

The system's voice sounded.

"Yes, you admit your mistakes and correct them, and you never contradict others. If there were a competition for outstanding systems across the heavens, I think you would definitely be the champion."

Qiu Hougong praised the system, then turned his gaze to the location of the Seven Water Spirits.

At this moment, Shui Ling and her companions had arrived behind a boulder about twenty meters away from Anzhen Village.

"Sisters, we don't know anything about the interior of Anzhen Village, and rushing in might lead to a trap. So, here's my plan..."

Leaning against the boulder, Shui Ling looked at the girls surrounding her and whispered, "Wenwen, you and Mengmeng will go to the entrance of the stronghold and challenge them to a duel. Try to lure out as many of the bandits as possible, especially their Soul Masters. Once you have enough people, retreat to the woods we just came from. Remember to control your speed and distance carefully, understand?"

"Understood, Captain. Leave this to us."

Shui Meng spoke up, and Qian Wenwen, who was standing next to her, nodded in agreement.

"Yes, you must be extra careful and not get hurt..."

Shui Ling gave Shui Meng and Qian Wenwen another instruction, then looked at the other girls and said, "A Jiao, Xi'er, Xiao Xin, Ke Wen, you come with me to the woods to wait for Wenwen and Mengmeng. When the bandits arrive, we will attack them directly, and the intensity of the attack will depend on the strength of the attackers."

"Yes, Captain." x5

Shui Jiao and the other girls said in unison.

"action!"

"Yes!" x6

At Shui Ling's command, Qian Wenwen immediately rushed to the boulder, then held a blue and white shield that could cover her entire body in front of her to block it.

Arriving next to Qian Wenwen, Shui Meng held a two-meter-long spear that exuded a chilling aura, aimed at the plaque hanging in Anzhen Village, charged for five seconds, and then suddenly swung her hand and threw the spear out.

Whoosh! Snap!

With a whooshing sound, the plaque struck by the spear shattered into several pieces under the powerful impact.

"Enemy attack!"

"Quick! Quick! Quick! Prepare for a counterattack! Prepare for a counterattack!!!"

Seeing the bandits shouting in the mountain stronghold after the signboard was smashed, Shui Meng, who was standing next to Qian Wenwen, was also busy.

She first calculated the time in her mind, and after knowing the timing of the attack, Shui Meng began to throw and recall her martial soul, the Ice Condensation Spear, in a regular manner.

Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!Whoosh!

After throwing the Ice Condensation Gun four times in a row, the bandits in Anzhen Village finally organized their ranks and came out of the gate.

"Damn it, you dare to smash our bandit's signboard? You're asking for trouble!"

The leader, a one-eyed burly man, spoke, the machete in his hand and the four spirit rings floating beside him—white, white, yellow, and yellow—demonstrating his strength as a Spirit Master, though this Spirit Master wasn't particularly powerful.

"One-Eyed Wolf? What are you doing here?"

Looking at the one-eyed wolf not far away, Shui Meng flicked the spear in her hand with a disdainful expression, then pointed at him and said, "Hurry up and call out your boss, An Chen Sha Bi. You are not worthy to fight me."

"Shui Meng, don't think you can be arrogant just because your spirit ring configuration is better than mine. Take this first!"

Seeing Bingmeng's expression, the insulted one-eyed wolf roared angrily and charged towards Shuimeng with his martial spirit—the Three-Eared Two-Ring Blade.

"Fine, since you insist on courting death, I'll finish you off first, and then send Anchen Shabi down to join you!"

Shui Meng said coldly, then brandished her spear and charged towards the one-eyed wolf.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!

A series of sounds of clashing swords and spears rang out. Shui Meng and the One-Eyed Wolf fought for five or six rounds without using their soul skills. Only after they realized that they could not determine a winner did they each use their soul skills.

"First Soul Skill: Ice Spikes!"

With her first spirit ring flashing, Shui Meng, who was holding a spear in both hands, moved her shoulders, and the spear that was originally thrusting to the left immediately turned and thrust to the right.

"Third Soul Skill - Horizontal Blade Slash!"

Seeing Shui Meng's spear coming at him, One-Eyed Wolf drew his sword and slashed at the tip of Shui Meng's spear, trying to deflect it.

"Third Soul Skill - Spear Tremor!"

Seeing through the one-eyed wolf's intentions, Shui Meng sneered and immediately activated her third soul skill. Then, she quickly flicked her spear, actually dodging the one-eyed wolf's broadsword and heading straight for his throat.

Pfft!

With a single thrust, the one-eyed wolf, with no way to dodge, was pierced through the throat by Shui Mengdao's spear. Immediately afterward, the one-eyed wolf's neck began to freeze at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Click!

"This is the last time. Summon An Chen Sha Bi to me, or he'll suffer the same fate as you!"

Shui Meng drew her gun and shattered the one-eyed wolf, whose upper body had turned into an ice sculpture. She looked ahead with an icy tone and spoke to the bandits who were already stunned.

Although Shui Meng's strength is indeed much weaker than that of the geniuses in their academy and the students from various teams who can participate in the Advanced Soul Master Competition, she is already very strong compared to these self-taught Soul Masters who have not received professional training and whose Soul Ring configurations are still very poor.

"Good! Good! Good! As expected of someone from Tianshui Academy, their strength is indeed extraordinary."

A rough voice rang out from inside Anzhen Village, followed by a burly man who was over two meters tall and whose face was only slightly better looking than Tang San's, walking out of the village gate, accompanied by five trusted men who were releasing their martial souls.

"Great Chieftain!"

"Great Chieftain!"

Upon seeing the burly man appear, the bandits, their fear dispelled, quickly made way for him.

"An Chen Sha Bi!"

Upon seeing the burly man, An Chen Sha Bi, Shui Meng, who had previously maintained a cold expression, immediately became enraged. "You are utterly depraved and have committed countless evil deeds. Today, I will avenge the villagers you have murdered!"

"Revenge? Hahaha!"

An Chen Sha Bi laughed loudly, "Living on this Douluo Continent, one must understand one principle: the strong live and the weak die. Since they were weak and happened to be encountered by me, it's their own fault for being killed by me."

"You bastard! Take this!"

Enraged by An Chen's Demonic Jade, Shui Meng charged forward with her spear, simultaneously unleashing her fourth soul skill—Frost Sweep.

"Fourth Soul Skill - Earthen Fist!"

Upon seeing Shui Meng charging towards him, An Chen Sha Bi waved to his confidant not to intervene, immediately activating his martial soul—Thick Earth Bear—and then unleashing his fourth soul skill to attack Shui Meng.

bump!

With a muffled thud, Shui Meng was sent flying by An Chen Sha Bi's powerful punch. If Qian Wenwen hadn't reached out to stop her from behind, she would have already been lying on the ground.

"Mengmeng, are you alright?"

With his eyes fixed on An Chen Sha Bi, which was surrounded by six soul rings of white, yellow, purple, purple, purple, and purple, Qian Wenwen said to Shui Meng.

"It's nothing, just a minor injury..."

Shui Meng wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and then said to Qian Wenwen, "Quickly, proceed according to the captain's plan."

"Alright, second soul skill: Shield Armor Technique, third soul skill: Ice Chill!"

Qian Wenwen nodded as she activated her second and third soul skills. Then, she slammed her shield into the ground, and a three-meter-high, five-meter-long ice shield appeared in front of Qian Wenwen and her companion, while a pale blue mist swirled around them.

"Trying to use something like this to stop me? You're really overestimating yourselves."

Seeing the ice shield appear, An Chen Sha Bi, who had no intention of getting close, revealed a sinister smile, and then released his fifth soul skill - Rock Cone - and smashed it towards the ice shield.

Boom! Crack!

As the ice shield shattered, and the mist was also dispersed, An Chen Sha Bi took a closer look and saw that Shui Meng and Qian Wenwen had already run more than twenty meters away.

"Trying to run? Let's see where you think you can go this time!"

An Chen Sha Bi shouted loudly, then led all his men in pursuit.

Five minutes later, An Chen Sha Bi led his men into the woods, following behind Shui Meng and the other two women.

Not long after entering, An Chen Sha Bi felt an ominous premonition rising in his heart.

Just as he was about to stop and observe his surroundings, female voices came from the surrounding woods.

Fifth Soul Skill: Ice Heart!

"First Soul Skill: Ice Light Slash, Fourth Soul Skill: Ice Mirror Combo!"

"Third Soul Skill - Deer!"

"Third Soul Skill: Triple Ice Wall, Fourth Soul Skill: Ice Cone!"

"Third Soul Skill: Ice Frog Shock!"

As one soul skill after another was unleashed, the Anchen Shabi bandits, who were already surrounded, were beaten until they cried out in pain. Many bandits were pierced by sudden ice spikes or cut in half by blades filled with icy energy before they could even utter a word.

A few minutes later, Shui Ling and the other women stopped attacking when they realized there were no more screams, and then jumped down from the tree.

"Captain, they should all be taken care of, right?"

Looking at the forest five meters away, which was filled with icicles and surrounded by ice walls, Zhao Kewen, who had come to Shui Ling's side, spoke.

"It's possible, but let's observe further to avoid any unexpected situations."

Shui Ling stared ahead as she spoke. Although she was confident in her and her teammates' attack damage, the opponent had a Soul Emperor-level expert, so it was okay to be cautious.

"No need, Captain. With the frequency of the attacks the sisters just made, even a high-level Soul Master at the Soul Emperor level in the academy would have a hard time dealing with a sudden attack. Let alone a self-taught Soul Emperor like An Chen Sha Bi who doesn't even have a ten-thousand-year Soul Ring."

Standing to the side, slightly out of breath, Shui Jiao spoke up. After the continuous attacks, half of Shui Jiao's soul power had been consumed. It was precisely because of this that she believed An Chen Sha Bi and the others had been completely defeated.

"Captain, Ah Jiao is right..."

Shui Xi'er, whose soul power had also been depleted by half, nodded and suggested, "I think we should rest now. Then we can go into Anzhen Village, clear out the remaining bandits, and take all the money and food inside to distribute to the villagers in the nearby villages."

"Hmm... alright. Everyone, rest where you are, we'll head into the mountain stronghold in a bit."

Hearing so many people say that she no longer intended to persist, Shui Ling gave the order.

However, just as the seven women relaxed their guard and prepared to rest, a violent explosion came from the forest surrounded by ice walls.

Bang! Crack!

An Chen Sha Bi smashed the ice wall with a single punch, emerging from within it despite being somewhat disheveled but unharmed.

"What?! This is impossible!"

Upon seeing An Chen Sha Bi emerge from inside, Shui Ling quickly stood up, her eyes filled with disbelief. "Even if you could withstand our previous attacks, it's impossible for you to be completely unharmed!"

"Hmm, I must say your attacks are indeed very strong, but unfortunately..."

An Chen Sha Bi grinned at the incredulous looks on Shui Ling's and the other girls' faces, then shook his left arm, which emitted an earthy yellow light, and said, "This is the left arm soul bone I obtained from hunting a thousand-year-old soul beast—the Earth Turtle. It can provide a shield that can block all attacks below the Soul Saint level for ten minutes. Now, you can understand why I'm alright, right?"

"I never expected you to have such good luck..."

Having learned why An Chen Sha Bi was unharmed, Shui Ling activated her martial soul and then said to the girls behind her, "You all hurry back to the academy to get reinforcements. I'll hold them off here."

"No, Captain. We're all going together!"

Shui Meng spoke up, and the other girls also looked as if they wanted to live and die with Shui Ling.

"Hurry up! If we don't leave now, none of us will be able to get away."

Knowing what Shui Meng and the others were thinking, Shui Ling shouted. At that moment, An Chen Sha Bi's voice also rang out, "Trying to leave? Too late! None of you are leaving!"

However, just as An Chen Sha Bi was about to finish off Shui Ling and the others, another voice suddenly rang out, "Oh? Is that so?"

"Who's there?! Show yourself!"

Sensing danger, An Chen Sha Bi roared, his aura reaching its peak.

"Behind you."

The voice came again, and An Chen Sha Bi turned around to see a man wearing sky-blue armor appear behind him at some point.

"My surname is An Chen, and my given name is Shabi. May I ask your honorable name?"

Seeing Qiu Hougong suddenly appear, An Chen Shabi knew he must be a master and said respectfully.

"You know my name? You're not worthy."

Qiu Hougong spoke coldly, then with a flick of his left arm, An Chen Shabi collapsed, clutching his neck.

"Thank you for your help, senior."

Seeing that An Chen Sha Bi was instantly killed by Qiu Hou Gong, Shui Ling, who was both shocked and delighted, immediately stepped forward and bowed.

"It was nothing, no need to be so polite..."

Qiu Hougong, having deactivated his Dragon Battle Armor Mode, smiled and waved his hand. He then took out his token and showed it to Shui Ling and the other girls. "I wonder where you all come from and how this person came to target you."

"Elder Protector of the Nation!"

Upon seeing the token in Qiu Hougong's hand, Shui Ling and the other girls first bowed and introduced themselves. Then Shui Ling explained, "Reporting to the elder, we are the guard team from Tianshui Academy. The reason we came here is to wipe out this bandit group led by An Chen Shabi."

"Oh, I see..."

After listening, Qiu Hougong nodded and then said, "Now that the bandit leader has been dealt with, I will go with you to the mountain stronghold and return everything they have plundered from the villagers over the years."

"Yes, thank you, sir." x7

The seven women spoke in unison, and then the eight of them walked together toward Anzhen Village.
