Douluo Jueshi: I Don't Want to Be an Evil Soul Master

"All right!"

Nangong Wan was about to say something else when Feng Ling suddenly interrupted him.

"From now on, I will personally guard Mingdu. There is no need to worry about safety." Feng Ling said, thinking for a moment, "If I remember correctly, the third and eighth brothers are both soul masters, right?"

"Yes." The Dark Thunder Douluo in front of Feng Ling no longer had the momentum he had just now, and he lowered his head and responded.

"Most of Mingdu's businesses are related to rare metals, and the upcoming Soul Master Competition with the Ordinary Alliance will be related to Soul Masters. It would be fine if the Third and Eighth Brothers were in charge."

"Second brother, you can go back to headquarters first. Xu Tianran probably has other things to ask me this time, and I'll need you to do it then."

Although she didn't see the specific situation, Feng Ling still understood Nangong Wan's character as the deputy leader of the Holy Spirit Church. She could guess what happened that night just from a few words.

No one expected the elders and disciples in the Holy Spirit Sect to be as united and friendly as in other sects, but with this incident, the relationship between Nangong Wan and Minglei Douluo was obviously irreconcilable.

If they continue to stay in the same place, they might start fighting at any time. It would be better to take this opportunity to transfer Nangong Wan to another place.

After all, it is obviously more appropriate for the soul master Ming Lei Douluo to handle the affairs here.

As for Lin Xiao, he was simply brought in temporarily by Nether Thunder Douluo to make up the numbers, but at least he was in Mingdu with them normally, so Feng Ling didn't say much.

Nangong Wan's expression changed rapidly. After a long silence, he still didn't dare to resist Feng Ling. "Yes, Deputy Leader."

"Yes." Feng Ling nodded gently, "Then the reconstruction of this stronghold will also be the responsibility of the Third and Eighth Brothers."

"Oh right," Feng Ling said, suddenly turning to look at Ma Xiaotao beside her. "The Saint has been practicing with me, and she needs to release the evil fire in her body every night. I'm going to the palace tonight, and it just so happens that the Second Brother has nothing to do, so I can take her out for a while."

Lin Xiao, who was standing by, glanced at Ma Xiaotao. She looked very calm, even a little dull, and didn't look like she was disturbed by evil fire at all.

But it's also true that the evil fire in Ma Xiaotao's body becomes more intense the more it is suppressed. During the time she has been with Feng Ling, countless people have died in her flames. How could she still be disturbed by the evil fire if she indulged herself so much?

On the contrary, because he had no worries, his cultivation improved by leaps and bounds.

Nangong Wan paused for a moment, but did not refuse. He left with Feng Ling and Ma Xiaotao.

"Third brother."

After seeing the three people leave, Lin Xiao turned to look at Ming Lei Douluo, "I don't know much about the business in Mingdu yet, so I'll trouble you, Third Brother, to take care of me in the future."

"Okay, okay." Minglei Douluo stepped forward and patted Lin Xiao's shoulder, the sadness in his expression no longer showing as it did at the beginning.

Lin Xiao's eyes moved slightly when he saw this, but he didn't say much in the end.

Wait a minute, it will be later.

Chapter 230 Frustrated

Mingdu welcomed the night again as usual. The soul guides lighting the streets were still bright, but the atmosphere seemed to have lost its former liveliness.

Although the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy tried its best to cover up the attack on Mingde Hall, such a big commotion could not be hidden from ordinary people, but it could not be hidden from the soul guides and soul masters with cultivation.

In addition, there was the commotion that the people from Shrek Academy had caused in the Holy Spirit Church’s stronghold.

Ordinary people didn't know that it was the place of the Holy Spirit Church, and not everyone knew that it was an underground trading place in Mingdu. They only knew that people from other empires attacked the capital of the Sun and Moon Empire.

An inexplicable atmosphere spread invisibly throughout the entire Ming capital city. In some shops that were open until late at night, familiar customers were discussing what had happened in the past two days. They were so upset that they wanted to pick up their soul guides and rush to the three empires to fight back.

"What exactly is your Majesty thinking? Why hasn't any news come out from the royal family yet?"

At a small stall nearby, several figures sat around a lighting soul guide, mumbling and complaining under the influence of alcohol.

"Yeah, this is too frustrating!" A young man on the other side slammed the empty bottle in his hand onto the table. "I've already decided to sign up for the army tomorrow. They've bullied us all the way to the capital, how can we swallow this?"

"Hey—" Another person beside him pulled the young man aside, "His Majesty must have his own ideas. It's better for us not to worry too much."

"I think you're just scared. You'd better sneak across the border and seek refuge with the three empires as soon as possible."

"How could I possibly mean that?" The man who had just started to persuade her blushed instantly, stood up, and raised his voice a bit. "I'm only following your Majesty's orders. As long as your Majesty gives the order, I will naturally charge into battle!"

"OK OK--"

Seeing that the sound attracted the attention of many people around, his drinking buddy hurriedly stood up and pulled him to sit down.

After all, we are discussing royal matters, so it is better not to let too many people hear it.

At another table not far from these people, several figures were also sitting together. One of them suddenly clenched the wine glass in his hand, but was quickly grabbed by the wrist by another person.

"Ming'er, what are you going to do?"

"Sister Ruoruo, I can't stand it anymore. The academy is clearly helping them eliminate the evil spirit masters, so how come we are the ones bullying them in the end?"

"Alas." Han Ruoruo glanced up slightly after hearing Wu Ming's words. Seeing that no one else noticed them, she spoke in a low voice, "We were never right in this matter."

"Although the academy's goal is indeed to eliminate evil spirit masters, making such a big fuss in Mingdu is somewhat embarrassing for the Sun-Moon Empire."

"Think about it, what would you think if someone inexplicably destroyed a large area of ​​buildings in Shrek City?"

"Of course I am..." Wu Ming suddenly stopped here. She had already understood the meaning of Han Ruoruo's words.

"Okay, don't be angry. After all, our identities can't withstand scrutiny. It's better not to stay too long. If you can't find Dean Yan and the others, find a place to rest first."

Hearing Han Ruoruo's words, Wu Ming's momentum instantly weakened. "I've heard people talking about the Jingyang Mountains these days. Could it be that Dean Yan and the others have gone there?"

"Dean Yan and the others didn't leave any marks, so I'm not sure either." Han Ruoruo shook her head. "How about this, let's search again tomorrow. If we still don't find anything, we'll leave. This is the Sun Moon Empire after all."

"This is the only way." Wu Ming said as she looked up and glanced outside. This one glance made her stunned for a moment.

"Big——" She just uttered a word and immediately fell silent. She reached out and shook Han Ruoruo beside her.

Han Ruoruo's eyes lit up when she saw this. She winked at the others, and they all stood up and left without saying a word.

"Senior Sister, where have you been these days?" Wu Ming couldn't wait to speak as soon as they reached a place where there was no one.

Zhang Lexuan also breathed a sigh of relief after seeing several inner court disciples. "It's a long story, and this isn't the place to talk. I'll take you away first, and then return to the academy as soon as possible."

"Where are Dean Yan and the others?" Han Ruoruo asked with some concern.

"They will leave soon. Mingdu is much more dangerous than the academy expected. We can't solve the problems here right now."

"what?"

Wu Ming and the others' expressions dropped instantly when they heard Zhang Lexuan's words. The fact that even the academy's elders couldn't resolve the situation was indeed somewhat beyond their expectations.

"It's good that you know the danger. Come on, I'll take you away."

Zhang Lexuan glanced around and saw that the night in Mingdu was not deserted. With the lighting soul guide, there were many pedestrians on the streets even late at night. She simply divided the group and they left in twos and threes and headed out of the city.

"Senior Sister, just now when we were resting..." While walking on the road, Wu Ming moved closer to Zhang Lexuan and said what he had just heard.

"I actually heard it too." Zhang Lexuan nodded and sighed.

From the time she entered the city to the time she found Wu Ming and his group, she heard such remarks more than once. Sometimes she would wonder if the academy's actions this time were too rash.

Someone had clearly warned her that the evil soul master's affairs were far from as simple as they seemed.

Mingdu City has no city walls, and there are far more than one road leading out of the city. In addition, there is a soul guide that illuminates the city all night long, so there is naturally no such thing as a curfew. Zhang Lexuan and his group left Mingdu smoothly without encountering any obstacles.

It was pitch black outside the city. Zhang Lexuan suddenly stopped and looked back at the light behind her, and was slightly stunned.

"What's wrong, Senior Sister?" Wu Ming also stopped when he saw this.

"You guys should leave first, I still have something to deal with."

"What's the matter? Do you need our help?" Han Ruoruo noticed the movement behind her and turned around.

"Yes, Senior Sister, if it's not important, please leave first." Wu Ming also spoke up to advise.

Zhang Lexuan didn't say anything, just shook her head, "It's okay, I'll be back soon."

Having said that, without waiting for anyone to respond, he turned around and re-entered the city.

"Senior Sister——"

Wu Ming was about to say something else, but was stopped by Han Ruoruo, "Ming'er, trust Senior Sister, let's go back first."

"Ok."

In the blink of an eye, Zhang Lexuan had already crossed several streets in Mingdu City. Soon, a gate appeared in front of her from afar. Although there was no conspicuous sign, anyone from the Sun-Moon Empire would recognize that this was the Sun-Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy.

Chapter 231 Holy Son

For some reason, Zhang Lexuan suddenly wanted to come here and take a look. She didn't want to see anyone or say anything, she just wanted to take a look from afar.

After a long time, the night wind had become a little chilly, but no one was seen entering or leaving the gate of the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy.

She suddenly felt a little lost, but she didn't know what she was losing. She just sighed softly and turned away.

The lighting soul guide projected the figures of pedestrians on the ground on both sides of the street. Zhang Lexuan lowered her head slightly and looked at the shadows on the ground hurrying forward. It seemed that they would be out of the city soon.

However, before her eyes, two figures came from outside the city. Before they got close, a strong and fresh smell of blood emanated from them, mixed with the smell of something burning.

Zhang Lexuan raised her head slightly and took a look, but just this one look made her stop unconsciously.

On the other side of the road, Nangong Wan felt the aura of the person next to him, turned his head slightly to take a look, and then quickly looked away.

Although Ma Xiaotao only has eight rings now, the power he displayed when he took action just now made him, a Titled Douluo, vaguely feel a little uneasy.

The power is close to the ultimate fire, or in other words, although it is mixed with some dark attributes, she already has the strength of the ultimate fire. Nangong Wan secretly compared it in his heart, thinking about whether he should be better in his attitude when he sees the saint next time.

At this moment, he suddenly realized something, his expression turned cold, and he looked up and looked around.

There seemed to be nothing unusual around, except that there was a person on the other side of the road who looked like he wanted to leave the city, but suddenly stopped for some reason.

Nangong Wan has always been cautious in his actions. Although he didn't notice anything, he just felt a little uneasy in his heart, which still made him alert.

Zhang Lexuan gritted her teeth slightly. She could vaguely feel that Nangong Wan's strength was above her own, but now, she was only a few steps away from Ma Xiaotao, and it seemed that leaving Mingdu was only a blink of an eye away.

"I'm sorry to keep you waiting. Let's go."

Suddenly, a familiar voice came from her ears. Zhang Lexuan could feel a hand grabbing her arm. Her body subconsciously stiffened for a moment, but soon relaxed.

Just now, her attention was all on Ma Xiaotao. A figure in a gray cloak appeared beside her at some point. The wide cloak not only covered the person's face, but even made the figure difficult to distinguish. However, she still knew who the person under the cloak was.

Seeing that Zhang Lexuan didn't say anything for a moment, Lin Xiao raised his head slightly, revealing half of his face to her, "You just came to the academy to find me, weren't you waiting for me to leave the city together?"

Then, he lowered his voice slightly and said, "You don't really want to take Ma Xiaotao away in Mingdu?"

After she finished speaking, Zhang Lexuan took a step forward and walked out of the city.

On the other side, Nangong Wan watched Lin Xiao and Zhang Lexuan gradually walk away, then he slowly relaxed and breathed a sigh of relief.

But when he turned around to look at Ma Xiaotao, he saw that she was still staring at the two figures leaving in the distance, with a hint of pain in her eyes.

"Saint, let's go."
