Douluo: Peerless Righteous Douluo

His eyes were bright and lively, and there was a deep-seated greed in the look he gave Lin Yi.

The visitor is not good.

This is Lin Yi's judgment.

Judging from his aura, he is probably a Titled Douluo-level expert, but why would he come to me?

Lin Yi did not panic, but kept thinking secretly, like peeling off silk from a cocoon, hoping to get useful information.

This was the capital of the Xingluo Empire. The Titled Douluo who could remain here were either powerful, yet low-key, or friendly to the Xingluo Empire. After all, the combat power of a Titled Douluo was too terrifying. No one dared to imagine the horrific consequences of a Titled Douluo going mad in the imperial capital.

Or it could be a tribute from the Xingluo Empire itself.

Looking at the old man in front of me with an attitude of "the world is the boss and I am the boss", he doesn't look like the kind of person who can coexist peacefully with an empire. Only an empire's tribute, who is treated preferentially because of his powerful cultivation, can develop such a temperament.

But, the same question remains, why did he come to me?

"Greetings, Senior. I wonder what brings you here?"

The old man smiled proudly, "Tell me, which of the ten fierce beasts are you transformed into?"

"what?"

Lin Yi immediately felt that his brain was a little overloaded. Although the iron rule that ferocious beasts could not transform that Moon had told him before had been broken by Xue Di, wasn't it a bit confusing right and wrong to mistake a human for a ferocious beast?

Seeing Lin Yi's confusion, the old man sneered, "You can deceive others, but you can't deceive me. I have to say that you, a soul beast, have some brains. You actually thought of asking others to cover for you, thereby concealing your true identity."

"What's the matter?"

Lin Yi felt a growing headache. Did this old man drink fake wine? What did this have to do with anything?

The old man smiled smugly, "Still pretending? Haven't you figured out why you've been exposed? Well, I'll tell you, so you can understand better."

"That young man who could disguise his aura and figure in the previous match was the helper you were looking for, right? I have to say, that young man's abilities are quite impressive."

"During the elimination round, that young man transformed into your appearance and imitated your aura. In the previous match, he transformed into your appearance again and released your true aura together with you to defeat the Golden Leaf Soul King."

"The reason you always make him look like you is to confuse others, right? You even let that boy simulate the appearance of a 100,000-year spirit ring to attract people's attention. But in fact, the black spirit ring is your true strength. The boy's behavior is just to attract people's attention so that they won't focus all their attention on you."

"Who could have thought that a soul beast like you could possess such wisdom and be able to play the game of hiding from the public? This truly impressed me. Unfortunately, there was always a slip-up. That young man was unable to completely conceal your aura, revealing a hint of a ferocious beast's aura. This was detected by my martial soul's special intuition. I think this is your fate."

"Your martial soul is a tree. Among the ten fierce beasts, there is only one tree-type soul beast, and that is the fifth-ranked Ten Thousand Demon King. Its true form is a Demon Eye Demon Tree, but..."

The old man said hesitantly, "It doesn't match your martial spirit attributes."

Lin Yi thought that the old man who was talking to himself had finally discovered the loophole.

Unexpectedly, the old man said the next moment: "I think your power was sealed during the transformation process, or you have undergone some mutation. In short, you can't escape."

Can a soul beast transform and undergo martial soul mutation? Did you learn martial soul knowledge from Yu Xiaogang?

Lin Yi, who had been silently complaining in his heart, finally found a chance to speak, "Senior, you misunderstood. I am a human, not a ferocious beast."

The old man waved his hand and said, "You want to hide it from me? If you were a human, how could you absorb a ten thousand year soul ring with your first soul ring? Only soul beasts can do this. Don't treat me like a fool."

Looking at the gleam of wisdom in the old man's eyes, Lin Yi was speechless for a moment. He felt that he really couldn't convince the old man.

In this old man's worldview, his logic is self-consistent.

Why is Lin Yi’s first soul ring ten thousand years old? Because he is a soul beast. Why do soul beasts dare to participate in the competition? Because they have a helper who can help conceal their breath.

How to cover it up? Use soul skills to change into his appearance, and then release more exaggerated soul rings, so that everyone's attention will not be focused on him, but it will not be completely unfocused. It is like the moon next to the sun, with light, but not bright. It is there, but not easy to be seen. It is really a perfect way of dodging using inertial thinking.

Just like what the old man said just now, it’s darkest under the lamp.

After going through all this, Lin Yi felt that what the old man said made sense. With his series of actions, it seemed that he really should be a soul beast.

But I am really not a transformed soul beast, let alone the King of All Monsters, so what went wrong?

Lin Yi thought hard, but in the old man's opinion, this was just regret that he had not done it perfectly.

With a rather smug smile, the old man said, "Don't think about it. Your method is indeed good, but you just lacked a bit of luck, which led you to meet me."

Lin Yi almost worshipped this old man.

"Dare you ask me your senior's name?"

The old man smiled reservedly, "Since you are about to die, I will fulfill your last wish. I am Cheng Gang, the Protector of the Xingluo Empire."

Then he didn't delay any longer and grabbed Lin Yi.

Lin Yi didn't dodge and let Cheng Gang grab his shoulders.

When Cheng Gang grabbed Lin Yi's shoulders and injected his soul power into him, his expression changed.

Then he put Lin Yi on the bed and clapped his hands continuously. At the same time, a trace of weak soul power continued to penetrate into Lin Yi's body.

Feeling the tingling sensation in his bones, Lin Yi understood that Cheng Gang was carefully examining whether he was the transformed soul beast.

But it was obvious that after he captured Lin Yi, when Cheng Gang's soul power penetrated into him and wanted to make Lin Yi lose his fighting ability, he had already confirmed Lin Yi's human identity.

Now it's clear that he doesn't want to believe it.

After a while, Cheng Gang was completely sure that Lin Yi was a human. He dragged Lin Yi to him a little bit out of control and asked desperately, "Are you a ferocious beast in disguise?!"

Lin Yi shook his head and said calmly, "No, I've already said before that I'm human."

Cheng Gang threw Lin Yi out heavily, and Lin Yi's body fell on the soul power that Cheng Gang had previously covered the room, and then fell to the ground.

The power of a Titled Douluo is so terrifying, not to mention that Cheng Gang is a power-type soul master. Even if he didn't activate his soul power, such a heavy fall relying only on physical strength is not something that Lin Yi, a four-ring soul master, can withstand.

He immediately spat out a mouthful of blood and his vision went dark. Lin Yi could clearly feel that his internal organs had shifted slightly.

It was not an exaggeration at all. This was the first time that Lin Yi had suffered such a serious injury since he started practicing. During the previous baptism of life, he only felt pain but was not injured.

However, after spitting out a mouthful of blood, the life gold in Lin Yi's body also sensed it and came alive, injecting vitality into it, recovering Lin Yi's injuries.

Cheng Gang raised his hand and waved, putting away his soul power. He looked at Lin Yi unhappily, "Kid, watch your mouth!"

After saying that, he turned and left, still cursing, "What bad luck! It's my bad luck."

Lin Yi coughed a few times, took a breath, and then said, "Mr. Song, please."

A barely perceptible eagle cry was heard, and the next moment, Cheng Gang, who had left earlier, rolled back into the room.

Then a green light flashed, and Cheng Gang, who had been extremely arrogant before, had his soul power sealed and lay on the ground like a puddle of mud.

An old woman slowly appeared in the room. It was Old Song.

Old Song was naturally there throughout the whole process. As he said before, Lin Yi was a treasure and nothing could happen to him.

When Cheng Gang showed up earlier, Old Song wanted to take action, but was secretly stopped by Lin Yi, who wanted to find out his purpose first. In the end, it could only be said to be a false alarm. Cheng Gang was simply brainless and had no plans behind it.

Lin Yi's only mistake was that he was thrown out and got hurt, so Old Song also got hurt by Cheng Gang as a revenge for Lin Yi.

"Xiao Yi, what should we do next? Xing Luo is really outrageous. He actually accepted such a person as a Protector of the Nation Douluo. He is so hungry that he will not be picky about food."

Lin Yi smiled in understanding, "I guess the pressure from Sun and Moon is too great."

"Then let's forget it?"

Lin Yi glanced at Old Song in surprise. "Of course I can't just let it go like this. Apart from anything else, I'm also a regular member of the Shrek Academy team. Xingluo City has to give me an explanation for the threats I've received in this situation."

Old Song nodded with satisfaction. This was the student who came from Shrek.

"how do you want to do it?"

Lin Yi looked at Cheng Gang lying on the ground and said, "Well, I'll write a letter and ask Elder Song to take this letter and Cheng Gang to Xingluo Palace."

With a deep smile on his face, Mr. Song nodded and said, "Just as you say."

Chapter 136: Xingluo Royal Family's Response, End of Round Robin

Star Luo Empire Palace.

In the back hall, Xu Jiawei was looking at a letter.

His Majesty:

Excuse me for disturbing you. I am a student in the inner courtyard of Shrek Academy, a disciple of the Master of Poseidon Pavilion, and the next successor of Poseidon Pavilion, Lin Yi.

But this time, I am just explaining something to you as an ordinary contestant.

Your country's national defender Douluo Cheng Gang mistakenly believed that I was a ferocious beast in disguise, intending to endanger the peace of your country. Therefore, in his eagerness, he directly captured me. Fortunately, the misunderstanding was finally resolved, and I was not seriously injured. I am now recovering.

It's just that your country's Cheng Douluo accidentally injured my master when he was trying to capture him in anger.

I feel quite sorry.

Therefore, I write this letter to Your Majesty, hoping that Your Majesty will forgive me for the sake of the friendship between Shrek and Xingluo over the years.

Don't let this incident affect the relationship between the two parties.

I, the next generation commander, would like to express my sincerest apologies to Xing Luo and Cheng Douluo.

Signed: Lin Yi.

"Brother, why are you so worried?"

Inside the hall, there was also a girl of about eighteen or nineteen years old. She was extremely beautiful, not inferior to Jiang Nannan at all. However, due to her age, she had grown up and had a better figure.

She was wearing a well-cut bright yellow long dress and had simple hair ornaments on her golden hair, but her overall temperament was elegant and noble, and she did not look like an ordinary woman.

Of course, she is not an ordinary person, as she can appear in the back hall of Xingluo Palace and share a room with the current Xingluo Emperor.

The girl's name is Xu Jiujiu, and she is Xu Jiawei's youngest sister. Although she is a girl, she has a very high level of political skills and personal wisdom, and is highly valued by Xu Jiawei.

In addition, he has excellent talent for cultivation and is one of the best in the entire Xingluo Empire. Therefore, his status is extremely high. If he were born a man, he would probably have already held a high position.

The only shortcoming is that he is only eighteen years old, still young, and still lacks some experience.

When Xu Jiawei heard what his sister said, he frowned. It was rare for him to hide his emotions in front of his trusted sister. There was a bit of anger in his voice, and he threw the letter in his hand onto the table.

"look by youself!"

"This Cheng Gang, his training has really made him stupid!"

Xu Jiujiu read the contents of the letter carefully with some confusion.

The content of the letter was not long and I finished reading it quickly.

But he seemed not to understand it. He read the letter in his hand several times before blurting out:

"Is Cheng Gang crazy?!"

In a sense, Cheng Gang is also a talent, as he can make the most favored princess of the dynasty lose her composure and make the king lose his composure and curse loudly.

"Royal brother, judging from Lin Yi's expression, it seems that he doesn't want to make this matter a big deal?"

After reading the letter for a long time, he carefully considered every word.

"After all, our Douluo clan is still focused on resisting the Sun-Moon Empire. Lin Yi is fine this time, and his words were quite polite, so it shouldn't be a big deal."

"Listen to the words and hear the meaning, and see the essence through the appearance." Xu Jiawei took a deep breath, suppressed his emotions, and taught his sister.

"His letter was indeed quite polite, but look at what he wrote. Have you ever seen someone who wants to keep things quiet reveal their identity? He's simply putting pressure on us!"

"The heir to His Majesty the Sea God is the treasure of the entire Shrek. If you touch him, do you expect to escape unscathed?"

"But isn't this just a misunderstanding? Cheng Gang also has good intentions..."

Xu Jiawei sneered, "Out of kindness? Just because he wrote that, you believe it?"

"Cheng Gang clearly values ​​the soul bones produced by the ferocious beast, and his greed drove him to take action. That's Shrek, how dare he?!"

"You haven't heard about the story of Soft Bone Douluo and the Spirit Hall ten thousand years ago, right?"

Xu Jiawei slammed the table and became more and more angry as he spoke.

There are so many masters in Shrek, and there are countless Super Douluo. It is said that Shrek even has an Extreme Douluo in charge. In this case, why does Cheng Gang think that something that many powerful Shrek masters cannot discover can be discovered by him, a weak chicken who has just broken through to the Titled Douluo!

Even if that was really a ferocious beast in human form, it was still a contestant from Shrek. How could Cheng Gang just come to him like that?

What's the difference between this and directly provoking and cursing in front of Shrek Academy?

If he was a free and easy soul master, it would be fine. At most, he would be crushed into meat paste, buried, or scattered, and it would not have any impact.

But he is not. He is a legitimate national protector of the Xingluo Empire. To exaggerate a little, he can represent part of Xingluo's attitude. As a result, he went to the accommodation of Shrek Academy so carelessly and took action. Has he ever thought about what the relationship between Xingluo and Shrek would be like?

Have you considered the consequences?

Do you take him, the Star Luo Emperor, seriously?!

A hint of murderous intent flashed in Xu Jiawei's eyes.

The temperature in the hall suddenly dropped a few degrees. After a long time, I felt that the environment suddenly became much colder, and an indescribable oppression came over me.
