Douluo: Reincarnation of Leosli, punishing the evildoers

The atmosphere in the room suddenly froze. The King of Slaughter stared intently at Leosley, his eyes filled with suppressed anger and distrust.

Siegwen stood to the side, a faint smile still on her lips, seemingly oblivious to the tense atmosphere in the air.

"Whether you eat it or not is up to you, whether you believe it or not is also up to you." Leosley put down the medicine bottle and waited for its answer.

The King of Slaughter stared at the medicine bottle on the table, his fingers tapping lightly on the armrest, producing a dull sound. The chill in the air grew heavier, as if even breathing was frozen.

Its gaze shifted from the medicine bottle to Leosley, its deep eyes flashing with complex emotions—doubt, longing, hesitation, and even a hint of barely perceptible fear.

The King of Slaughter's voice was low and slow, as if squeezed from the depths of his throat: "Are you sure this pill can free me from Tang Chen's soul?"

Leosley did not answer, but stood there quietly, his hands hanging naturally at his sides, his eyes calm as still water, as if he had already anticipated the other's reaction.

The King of Slaughter paused for a moment, then slowly extended his finger, the tip almost touching the rim of the medicine bottle, before abruptly withdrawing it. His brow furrowed, his lips pressed into a straight line, as if he were weighing something.

The King of Slaughter's finger reached for the medicine bottle again. This time, its fingertip landed steadily on the bottle, and a cold sensation came through its fingertip.

Its eyes flickered slightly, as if it still hesitated at the last moment.

However, the yearning for freedom ultimately overcame its inner doubts. With a gentle flick of its finger, the cap of the medicine bottle popped open, releasing a faint medicinal fragrance that contrasted sharply with the bloody stench that had filled the palace.

The King of Slaughter's gaze fell on the small white pill in the medicine bottle, his expression complex.

It didn't look at Leosley again, nor at Siegfried beside it. Instead, it poured the pill into its palm and gently pinched it between its fingertips. Its movements were slow, as if it were feeling the weight and texture of the pill, or as if it was giving itself a final moment to think.

Finally, it put the pill in its mouth, its Adam's apple bobbed, and the pill was swallowed.

His body trembled slightly, a hint of confusion flashing in his eyes. His fingers unconsciously gripped the armrests of the throne, his knuckles turning white from the force. His breathing became rapid, his chest heaving violently, as if resisting some unseen force.

"I almost forgot to tell you, this stuff requires a course of treatment. Once you finish this bottle, you should be almost done." Leosley's face revealed a meaningful smile.

Upon hearing this, the King of Slaughter frowned slightly.

He never expected such a thing to happen.

"You fool me?"

Its voice was deep and resonant like a mountain spring, and its eyes flashed with a dangerous light.

“I did say the medicine was okay, but I didn’t say one pill.” Leosley’s tone remained calm, as if he were stating something insignificant.

Upon hearing this, the King of Slaughter's fingers trembled slightly, and a flash of anger appeared in his eyes.

Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly felt an invisible force locking his body firmly in place.

His consciousness gradually became blurred, as if enveloped by something warm, and his consciousness gradually sank into darkness.

The King of Slaughter slowly collapsed to the ground, his body trembling with intense pain. His consciousness gradually blurred, as if forcibly ripped from his body. An indescribable agony enveloped him, and his soul seemed on the verge of collapse.

"It would be best if you refrain from making a move." Leosley's voice echoed in the room, his tone still calm as if he had long anticipated that the King of Slaughter would take action.

Upon hearing this, the King of Slaughter's eyes flashed with surprise.

He hadn't expected that his actions would be seen through by the other party, nor did he expect that the other party seemed to have been prepared all along.

The air in the room suddenly froze, and a dangerous glint flashed in the King of Slaughter's eyes. Though his consciousness was fading, he could still sense the changes in his surroundings. He knew now wasn't the best time, but he had no other choice. If he couldn't escape Tang Chen's soul, he would never achieve true freedom.

The atmosphere in the room was instantly ignited, and a dangerous glint flashed in the eyes of the King of Slaughter.

It could no longer tolerate Tang Chen's soul continuing to occupy this body. Its hands clenched into fists, and its whole body exuded a dense killing intent. Its fists trembled slightly from the excessive force, and the air swayed slightly from its heavy landing.

"Calm down!" Leosley's calm voice was like a bucket of cold water, instantly extinguishing the rage in the King of Slaughter's heart.

The King of Slaughter stood still, a hint of doubt flashing in its eyes. But it knew this was not the time to act impulsively, or it would only repeat its past mistakes. It had no other choice; if it couldn't rid itself of Tang Chen's soul, it would fall back into its predicament.

The King of Slaughter's voice was low and slow, tinged with a hint of helplessness: "What else can I do?"

Upon hearing this, Leosley's face revealed a meaningful smile.

His tone remained calm, as if he had already anticipated the King of Slaughter's reaction.

Treating illness is a slow process, so there's no use in rushing it now.

Although he didn't know who the Asura God had sent down, he estimated that this matter couldn't be resolved overnight, so he still had plenty of time.

"Take your time. You have the home advantage now, so there's no need to rush."

"Your Excellency, please refrain from further reckless actions, or you will only repeat the same mistakes. Moreover..."

Leosley's voice was as calm as still water, without the slightest emotional fluctuation in his tone.

"If you really destroy Tang Chen's soul, do you think the God of Asura will let you go?"

"Although the God of Asura doesn't manage things, he didn't ask you to abuse his body like this."

Upon hearing this, the King of Slaughter's pupils suddenly contracted, and a hint of surprise and uncertainty flashed in his eyes.

The King of Slaughter was both surprised and puzzled. He hadn't expected Leosley to say such a thing, and he certainly hadn't expected the other party to seem to have anticipated his actions.

Leosley naturally understood that with the Blood Red Nine-Headed Bat King's cultivation level and home-field advantage, he could have taken over Tang Chen's body long ago. But why, after so long, had he only managed to gain control of the body but had not yet managed to obliterate Tang Chen's soul?

All of this is because of the existence of the Asura God.

Under the watchful eye of the God of Asura, no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't erase Tang Chen's soul. The God of Asura was always watching this body.

What will Tang San do if the Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King really runs away with his body?
For a deity to inherit a divine position, a divine examination is required. For a divine position like the Asura God, the examination must be conducted rigorously.

The Asura God naturally understood this rule.

However, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that Tang San's Asura God Test in the original text was entirely filled with water.

At the time, Shura's explanation was that Tang Chen took the test in his place, and Tang San did not inherit the complete divine position, which was used as an excuse.

That's why the Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King couldn't fully take over the body.

When Tang Chen awakens at the crucial moment and hands over the Asura Sword and the Divine Test to Tang San, his, or rather their, mission is complete.

Otherwise, given the power of the Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King, how could it possibly have occupied Tang Chen, who was about to complete his divine examination? (End of Chapter)
