Douluo: The Second Lady of the Worship Hall, decisive in killing

Chapter 344 Strange White Mist

on the mainland.

In the darkness of night, in a quiet grove of trees.

A horse-drawn carriage is traveling through the woods.

Ling Yuan and Gui Bao sat at the very front of the carriage, with Gui Bao driving while Ling Yuan closed her eyes to rest.

The miniature version of the Evil-Eyed Saint King lay lazily on the roof of the carriage, just like always.

As the carriage continued its journey.

Fog gradually appeared around us.

The fog was very light at first, but it grew thicker and thicker.

Before long, the surroundings were completely shrouded in fog, and one could only see about five meters ahead.

"I feel like there's something wrong with this fog."

Ghost Leopard, who was driving the carriage, looked at the mist that appeared around him, and his eyes darkened slightly.

Ling Yuan opened her eyes, and just as she was about to say something, several sharp sounds came from behind her.

"who!"

Ling Yuan's figure soared into the air from the carriage, reaching out to grab the incoming whooshing sound.

Several arrows were seen being held in his hand.

"I gonna go see."

Ling Yuan turned around and said something to Gui Bao, then headed in the direction from which the arrows had come.

Ghost Leopard stopped the carriage and released his spiritual power to investigate the surrounding situation.

Perhaps due to the peculiarity of the white mist, Ghost Leopard discovered that his mental power was actually suppressed, and the range he could probe was the same as the range he could see with his naked eye.

"what's going on?"

The carriage doors opened, and Qian Renxue, Ye Xi, Tian Yao, and others stepped out.

"Young Master, Miss."

“There’s something strange about this white mist, and someone attacked our carriage just now. Ling Yuan has already gone to investigate.”

Ghost Leopard recounted everything that had just happened in detail.

Ye Xi reached out and picked up the arrow from the ground, examining it carefully.

"This looks like a crossbow bolt?"

Ye Xi's eyes darkened slightly, a thoughtful expression appearing in his deep blue eyes.

Crossbows are not common throughout the continent. Even the armies of the two great empires, Tiandou and Xingluo, use bows and arrows, not crossbows.

Moreover, this crossbow bolt is exquisitely crafted, completely different from ordinary crossbow bolts on the mainland, but somewhat similar to the Zhuge Divine Crossbow of the Tang Sect.

"Tang San, you didn't die in the Star Dou Great Forest?"

Ye Xi squeezed the crossbow bolt in his hand, breaking it into two pieces.

"How brave!"

Ghost Leopard roared and flashed behind Ye Xi, unleashing his soul power to form a barrier in front of him.

All that could be heard was the continuous ringing of bells.

One after another, long needle-shaped hidden weapons struck the soul power barrier.

"Miss, shall I go and take a look?"

Ghost Leopard's gaze was fixed on the direction from which the hidden weapon had come, a hint of anger flickering in his eyes.

"Go."

Ye Xi raised his hand towards Ghost Leopard.

Qian Renxue looked at Ye Xi, about to say something, when she saw Ye Xi gently shake his head.

Ghost Leopard, on the other hand, headed towards the direction from which the hidden weapon had come.

After the ghost leopard disappeared, Qian Renxue finally asked the question that had been bothering her.

“Seele, I think this might be a diversionary tactic.”

"The person who's been secretly plotting this is targeting you."

Qian Renxue's expression was exceptionally serious.

"Sister, it's okay."

"I want to see who is hiding in the shadows. Besides, this place isn't far from Tiandou City. I can easily use my spatial power to reach my Frost Snow Pavilion."

Ye Xi's tone was somewhat indifferent.

It's hard to say who the prey is and who the hunter is. If we can't win, we can use spatial power to call in reinforcements from Frost and Snow Pavilion.

Qian Renxue understood what Ye Xi meant.

He just smiled and then said nothing more.

Qian Renxue and Ye Xi exchanged a glance, then led Tianyue forward.

As they delved deeper...

A figure appeared before them?
It was a black-robed figure whose entire body was shrouded in black robes, and whose face wore a mask that seemed to be both crying and laughing.

"Pavilion Master Ye."

"It's nice to meet you, so I've prepared some gifts for you."

A hoarse voice came from the man in the black robe.

"who are you?"

"It's not good to hide your true intentions."

Ye Xi's eyes narrowed slightly, his heart filled with vigilance.

Qian Renxue took a step forward without making a sound, subtly shielding Ye Xi behind her.

“I come from the Holy Church.”

"You are the vice leader of the Holy Church. Our leader thinks highly of you. Why don't you join our Holy Church? I can promise you that if you join us, you will become a saintess of our Holy Church, and it is not impossible for you to become the leader of the Holy Church in the future."

"A martial spirit filled with killing intent—only our Holy Sect can help you recognize your own martial spirit."

"how?"

Her dark purple eyes looked past Qian Renxue and silently gazed at Ye Xi.

"The offer is very tempting."

"But I have absolutely no idea what your Holy Church actually does. Aren't you being a bit too insincere?"

Ye Xi released his martial spirit, and seven spirit rings flashed continuously on his body.

"If Pavilion Master Ye joins, he will naturally find out."

"But it seems that Pavilion Master Ye has no intention of joining now."

The man in black clapped his hands, and several whooshing sounds came from both sides as powerful crossbow bolts attacked from both sides.

The Sword of Slaughter and the Sword of Angels appeared in Ye Xi's and Qian Renxue's hands respectively, and they slashed at the incoming arrows.

Tianyao also released his martial spirit to block the surrounding arrows.

The man in black robes sat down on the ground, and a chessboard filled with killing intent appeared in front of him. Two yellow, two purple, four black, and one red soul rings flashed continuously on his body.

A chess piece, imbued with killing intent, appears in his hand and then falls onto the chessboard.

In an instant, a dark red barrier appeared around Qian Renxue, Ye Xi, Tian Yao, and the others.

When the barrier appeared, more than a hundred people dressed in black robes and wearing masks appeared around it.

Among them were even one Title Douluo and three Soul Douluos.

"Pavilion Master Ye."

"This is your last chance. Would you like to join our Holy Church?"

"You don't need to wait for the two Title Douluos beside you; they won't be able to come for the time being."

The hoarse voice continued.

A black chess piece appeared silently in his hand, seemingly ready to be placed at any moment.

"Okay."

"Let your leader step down and let me become the leader. I might consider it."

Ye Xi chuckled softly and snapped his fingers, causing cracks to appear silently around him.

The black-robed man's eyes turned completely cold.

As a chess piece is placed on the chessboard.

The people surrounding them launched an attack on Qian Renxue, Ye Xi, Tian Yao, and the others in an instant.

Holding the Sword of Slaughter, Ye Xi was the first to meet the charging Title Douluo.

Qian Renxue, wielding the Angel Sword, blocked the three Soul Douluos.

Tianyao looked around at the people, his eyes filled with solemnity.

Seeing the first person rush up, he went straight to meet them.

"Sixth Soul Skill: Ice Sword Judgment".

Ye Xi raised the killing sword in his hand and swung it, sending countless ice swords formed from soul power crashing down.
