Douluo: Divine Fire Xuanyuan

Chapter 322 Ling Luochen's Dilemma

Ma Xiaotao flew out from under the golden tree. She had been cultivating with the help of the golden tree. It wasn't just the enhancement from her ultimate martial soul, but also the assistance from the golden tree that allowed her to progress so quickly.

Her current attire is also different from before. She no longer has that cute bun hairstyle, but instead has long hair draped over her waist, wearing a red top and short skirt, and a red robe draped over her body, which makes her even more beautiful than before.

She's not much worse than Qiu'er.

Ma Xiaotao looked at Yuwen Tuo with a complicated expression and said, "What's the use of a Contra Douluo? He's still no match for you. Why did you go to such lengths?"

Yuwen Tuo said frankly, "Of course it's for revenge."

"Six years of cultivation gone to waste, must I pay with the lives of the entire Shrek Academy? If you insist on taking lives to stop you, then I am the culprit. All the mistakes of these past years are on my shoulders. I am here to fight you fairly. With your current strength, killing me is not difficult. I only beg you, please stop hating me!" Ma Xiaotao cried, it was the first time she had cried in front of Yuwen Tuo.

This was also the first time she had admitted her mistake in front of Yuwen Tuo. She had previously thought that she would eventually become stronger than everyone else and bring Yuwen Tuo back to her.

But in recent years, Yuwen Tuo's glorious achievements have been reported, and with that incredibly powerful strike just now, she knows that this man in front of her has become stronger at an unprecedented speed without the constraints of Shrek Academy.

She'll probably never catch up to him in her lifetime.

When your spirits are low, your confidence naturally disappears as well.

"You think your life can quell my hatred? You're not even the culprit; you're just the direct cause. The root cause lies with those old fogies down there," Yuwen Tuo said coldly. "But don't worry, my hatred isn't severe enough to extend to ordinary students. As long as those old fogies from the Sea God Pavilion line up to commit suicide in front of me as atonement, my hatred for Shrek Academy will end there. What do you think?"

"Don't even think about it!" Yan Shaozhe said sternly. "How could my Sea God Pavilion be threatened by you? We would rather fight to the end than grovel and beg for surrender."

Zhuang Yusen said, "Yuwen Tuo, my Sea God Pavilion has indeed wronged you, but do you know how many people in this world would suffer if it weren't for my Sea God Pavilion? If we hadn't done our best to crack down on evil soul masters, this world would be in such a state."

"You're talking about fighting evil spirit masters in front of me?" Yuwen Tuo interrupted him before he could finish speaking.

Zhuang Yusen was taken aback. Because he was a healer and didn't go to the battlefield much, he had forgotten for a moment that the man in front of him was practically a killer of evil spirit masters.

Shrek Academy can boast about their efforts in fighting evil spirit masters to anyone, but not to this man.

"Fine, I know you lot. How could you possibly commit suicide in front of me to atone for your sins? I'll just come and collect it myself later. The gift I wanted to give has been delivered. I'll take my leave now. Ma Xiaotao, and you too, what you owe me, I will make you repay tenfold." With that, Yuwen Tuo prepared to leave.

He didn't plan to settle scores with Shrek Academy today, since his strength wasn't enough. He didn't want to rely on the power of the Body Sect to take revenge; instead, he wanted to personally dismember them.

Mu En had no choice, after all, this guy's lifespan was coming to an end, and it was too late for him to make it on his own. He could only ask the sect leader for help, but he would have to do the rest on his own.

Another one is Ma Xiaotao. She is very strong now, but not strong enough. Yuwentuo left something on her. The stronger she becomes, the more terrifying that thing will be when it erupts, and the greater the feedback to Yuwentuo will be.

At this moment, Song Yunzhi raised her head and said, "Wait, Yuwen Tuo, your revenge against Shrek Academy has far exceeded Shrek Academy's persecution of you. Since you still refuse to give up, then remember this: from now on, Shrek Academy will fight you to the death."

Yuwen Tuo sneered, "Haven't we already decided to fight to the death? I'm ready to wait anytime!"

After saying that, he left Shrek Academy with Poison Immortal, thinking that Shrek Academy would be having another feast tomorrow.

Moreover, the turmoil caused by Yuwentuo was far more complex than it appeared on the surface. Soon after, Shrek Academy experienced a wave of student dropouts. Many Shrek students, fearing retaliation from Yuwentuo, were eager to escape the academy.

Because of Yuwen Tuo's extraordinary talent and combat ability, everyone is convinced that as long as he does not die young, he will definitely become a top powerhouse who surpasses the Black and White Twin Holy Dragons in the future. Who would want to be targeted by such a monster?
Just as Shrek Academy was grieving, there was another person in the Star Luo Empire whose situation was no better.

That was Ling Luochen. She had been imprisoned because she was framed, but thanks to the intervention of the Immortal Doctor Douluo, she was not locked up in a cell, but in her own room.

At least there were no problems with their daily lives, and they were not abused in any way.

On the contrary, you can focus on your cultivation.

However, outside, there was a heated debate about how to deal with her. Theoretically speaking, she had made such a big mistake, causing the deaths of four noble sons, that execution was not an exaggeration. The powerful noble families were also calling for her to pay with her life.

The biggest problem is that everyone knows she is Yuwen Tuo's older sister. And because they are not blood-related, it is even more troublesome. After all, blood-related siblings will always be blood-related siblings, while adopted siblings may one day become older sister and younger brother.

Without her constant care, Yuwen Tuo would probably have given up hope long ago after six years at Shrek Academy.

If we really harm her, aren't we afraid of Yuwen Tuo's revenge? Those titled Douluo heads are still dripping blood.

Xu Jiujiu overruled everyone's objections, stating that Ling Luochen absolutely could not be harmed, otherwise their relationship with Yuwen Tuo would be completely beyond saving.

However, the lives of so many noble children could not be ignored. The royal family finally came up with a solution: they would inform everyone that Ling Luochen would be severely punished, ranging from having his powers abolished to being executed.

But in reality, it's just a delaying tactic. The royal family will find a way to postpone the execution and then find an opportunity to let Ling Luochen redeem himself through meritorious service, using this as an excuse to cover up the matter.

In this way, they could say they were giving Yuwen Tuo face, and also doing Ling Luochen a favor. As long as Ling Luochen intervened, perhaps they could resolve some of the minor misunderstandings that happened at Mingdou Mountain.

The Immortal Doctor Douluo also agreed. Unfortunately, only a few people knew this secret. Some people who were unaware of the truth actually thought that Ling Luochen's punishment would be so severe, and they were extremely anxious.

This person was Yao Haoxuan, one of the original Shrek Seven Devils. With Ling Luochen's help, he did not suffer the same death as in the original story.

Having narrowly escaped death, he quickly graduated from the inner academy after Ling Luochen joined the Star Luo Hall and joined Star Luo along with Ling Luochen.

He had liked Ling Luochen for a long time, but he knew that Ling Luochen had someone else in her heart, so he never confessed.

But this time, he felt that if he didn't act now, it would be too late, so he directly asked the Hall of Offerings to marry Ling Luochen, and that all the losses caused by Ling Luochen would be compensated by his Yao family.

Of course, his real purpose was not to marry Ling Luochen, because Ling Luochen did not have him in her heart. Even if he really married her, Ling Luochen would not be happy. Yao Haoxuan was not a bad person. He liked Ling Luochen, so he would not do anything to make Ling Luochen feel uncomfortable. Therefore, his real purpose was just to buy time and delay Ling Luochen's torture so that he could go to the person in Ling Luochen's heart and ask him to save Ling Luochen.

Yao Haoxuan was also from a noble family. Before the emperor issued the decree, he so openly proposed to marry her that the emperor could not ignore it. In the end, he could only let Ling Luochen's family decide her fate.

Moreover, this is also a convenient approach, since the ultimate goals of both sides are actually similar: to postpone the implementation.
