Douluo: Peerless Black Tortoise Moon God

Chapter 315 Xian Lin'er: This is Zhang Lexuan's move, who exactly are you?!
With Xu Sheng's command, the firepower of an entire Soul Master Corps suddenly erupted, sparing no effort in firing even level four or lower fixed-position Soul Guidance Shells at Shrek Academy's hundreds of elite Soul Masters, regardless of losses.

Xu Tianxi blocked Xian Lin'er's path, toying with the Blade of Life Watch in his left hand, and said calmly, "Dean Xian, the second strongest among the four deans of Shrek Academy, will be buried here today. Do you have any last words?"

The divine weapon he used to stab Xian Lin'er in the lower abdomen was none other than the Blade of Life Watch. Xian Lin'er had suffered repeated heavy blows, and it was unknown whether she still had 60% or 70% of her peak combat strength.

The Gold of Life can torment a 100,000-year-old golden tortoiseshell to the point of near ecstasy, and naturally it can also be used as a weapon; however, in this world, currently only Xu Tianxi can wield it.

Xianlin'er's gaze swept around. Her mother was trapped by the old man from the Panlong family, and the other Shrek experts were temporarily suppressed by the artillery fire and could not raise their heads. She had no reinforcements at the moment.

"The only course of action now is to fight and retreat as needed..."

Xian Lin'er was heartbroken. She covered the bleeding wound on her lower abdomen with one hand, held the spear in her right arm, and let out a long howl: "I don't care who you are, the wolfish ambitions of your Sun Moon Empire will never be realized!"

"If you want to take my life, you'll have to see if you have the ability!"

With a flash, Xian Lin'er advanced instead of retreating, soaring into the sky.

A blazing blue flame erupted from her body, and she let out a deafening dragon roar. The blue flame then lit up and transformed into a giant dragon head, crashing towards Xu Tianxi.

"How ridiculous! You were the ones who invaded someone else's territory and got ambushed, yet you still have the nerve to say that we are the ones with wolfish ambitions!"

A chilling aura appeared between Xu Tianxi's brows, his gaze turned icy, and a surging torrent of water rose beneath his feet, while the bright moon hung in the sky behind him, like a moon rising over the sea.

The moonlight shifted, suddenly splitting into countless moon shadows that enveloped Xian Lin'er. As it swirled, it released a dazzling beam of light that was unstoppable, its grandeur comparable to a long-range soul-guided ray of level eight or higher.

These beams of light were pure white, surrounded by nine colors. Behind their exquisite surface lay a raging elemental storm, like a kaleidoscope in full bloom, engulfing Xianlin'er.

In the basement, Zhang Lexuan was stunned, a look of disbelief flashing across her face.

She and Xu Tianxi both possessed Moon Martial Souls, and both had 100,000-year Soul Rings. However, at this moment, she felt that Xu Tianxi's Moon Martial Soul was even stronger than her own.

"Damn it, his Moon Martial Soul contains a dense layer of frost and cold energy. With so many elemental attacks, Dean Xian's injured body might not be able to withstand it..."

Zhang Lexuan, with her rich combat experience, quickly realized the extent of the damage Xu Tianxi's move had inflicted on Xian Lin'er.

After watching for a long time, Xian Lin'er saw that no matter how she tried to break through Xu Tianxi's attack, she couldn't. Instead, she was trapped by Xu Tianxi's Myriad Moon Shadows. Her eyebrows curved slightly, and she smiled at Zhang Lexuan:

"We've really figured out your abilities thoroughly these past few days. Tell me... if he used your abilities to deal with Xian Lin'er, what kind of expression would she have?"

Upon hearing this, Zhang Lexuan's brows furrowed tightly, as if she were enduring immense pain, and her lips turned pale as she said, "You, why did you act so cruelly?"

For the past few dozen days, Xu Tianxi had been waiting and waiting, but Shrek Academy never came. Bored, besides presiding over the soul contract ceremony for Ji Juechen and Ye Guyi, his only source of amusement was visiting Zhang Lexuan.

Of course, Xu Tianxi was very upright in his conduct and was only interested in Zhang Lexuan's martial soul ability, so he went through the effects of all eight of her martial soul skills in one go.

Zhang Lexuan was extremely unwilling to agree, but when she refused, Xu Tianxi threatened to kidnap Beibei to keep her company. Having witnessed Xu Tianxi's terrifying methods, Zhang Lexuan dared not disobey, fearing that one day she would open her eyes to find Beibei on the verge of death in front of her.

In that case, she would be even more disappointed in Elder Mu's request...

These past few days, she's been like a pitiful wife who's been caught red-handed and powerless to resist. She can only let Xu Tianxi see all her most precious soul skills and then study them into similar combat techniques right in front of her.

Soul Master Minotaur is nothing special, but according to Xu Tianxi, unless he completely gives up his thoughts on Shrek Academy, he will do his best to squeeze every last bit of value out of her. As long as he doesn't kill anyone, even Kong Deming won't stop him.

Zhang Lexuan was on the verge of tears. "You used to call me 'Auntie' when we were little. How did you become so bad when we grew up?"
Xu Jiujiu's beautiful and elegant face beamed with an increasingly cheerful smile, as if she were laughing out all the resentment that had been building up over the years: "Auntie, it's wrong of you to say we're cruel. Today, Xianlin'er took the initiative to rush into this encirclement, and her fate was already sealed. Do you really think she has a chance to get out alive?"

“Tianxi said that only attacking someone else’s home is called aggression. Although there have been many pro-war voices in the Sun Moon Empire over the years, the Mingde Hall faction has always been indifferent. Today, you yourselves have pushed them into the pro-war faction.”

She raised her bright, beautiful eyes, gazing into the distance as she recounted as if listing treasures: "Among the hundreds of soul masters who came from Shrek Academy this time, besides your city defense army members, there are quite a few experts from both the inner and outer academies. Let me see, is that Bei Bei you're concerned about among them..."

Zhang Lexuan suddenly looked up, her heart pounding wildly. She absolutely did not want Beibei to be here.

Thankfully, she didn't see Beibei, but...

She saw many familiar figures of inner court disciples.

Many geniuses familiar to Zhang Lexuan, such as Han Ruoruo with the Golden Rope, Wu Ming, the Golden Crow Saintess, and Chu Qingtian, the Lightning Leopard, have come.

Thinking of the tragedy that was about to happen, Zhang Lexuan closed her eyes in anguish.

Xu Jiujiu probably knew what she was thinking. She raised an eyebrow and chuckled softly, "It seems that without Beibei, whom you care about, you can rest assured a lot. He can probably have some peace and quiet for a while longer."

"I'm also very surprised. You, a senior sister of the eighth ring of the inner court, are actually engaged to a boy who is more than ten years younger than you. And you look so infatuated that you seem determined to follow through to the end."

"Heh... that old guy Moon is no good either, he's scheming so meticulously."

Although she and Xu Tianxi were also engaged in a political marriage, they were only five years apart in age, and Xu Tianxi was reserved and mature. Xu Jiujiu also really enjoyed the feeling of working together to build a business.

Zhang Lexuan's situation—being both a child bride and a half-mother—is difficult to assess for a long time, and Mu En, who arranged this marriage, is an even more unscrupulous old scoundrel. They're all scoundrels in the same den!

A shadow crossed Zhang Lexuan's face. She suppressed her anger and said in a tight voice, "Old Master Mu made countless contributions to the mainland during his lifetime. I will not allow you to insult him like this!"

"Tch, if he really made such a great contribution, where would the Holy Spirit Cult get so many evil spirit masters?"

Xu Jiujiu scoffed, "Your inspection team has been running for so many years, but it's not as effective as the battle we three major forces fought against the Holy Spirit Church. The Holy Dragon of Light has a great reputation, but it seems to be all talk and no action."

"I know that Shrek Academy likes to beat up those Dark Soul or Yin Attribute Soul Masters who don't want to join Shrek Academy into potential Evil Soul Masters and then beat them up. That's what happened to Scorpion Tiger Douluo Zhang Peng back then. Mu En beat him up but didn't kill him. Wouldn't it have been a waste for him not to fall into becoming an Evil Soul Master?"

Zhang Lexuan's face froze for a moment, then after a long pause, she slightly raised the corners of her lips and continued:

"Let me tell you about yourself. When I learned about your background from Tianxi, I was quite curious. Your whole family was killed by enemies, so how did you survive? That's a big mystery."

Zhang Lexuan's expression quickened, her brows furrowed, and she demanded, "What do you mean?"

"The meaning is quite clear. Moon watched your entire family die, leaving only you, a genius with exceptional talent, and then, under the guise of revenge, he brought you into Shrek Academy."

"Even... this so-called enemy might be someone he secretly guided or controlled. As long as he wipes them out afterward, you won't be able to find out anything."

Xu Jiujiu chuckled and stared at Zhang Lexuan, shrugged her shoulders, and said sarcastically, "This kind of tactic is so outdated. I didn't expect anyone to still use it, but it is indeed effective."

Zhang Lexuan's expression changed drastically, and she shouted in a trembling voice, "You're talking nonsense! Old Master Mu couldn't possibly be that kind of person!"

"Whether someone is that kind of person or not is not for you to decide."

After a long while, he waved his hand and confidently retorted, "You are now a high-level Soul Master, don't you know how terrifying the mental perception of a Limit Douluo is?"

"Do you think your aura can escape Mu En's detection? It would be easy for him to save you and your whole family. It's a pity that this Limit Douluo came too late. He only managed to save you by chance, and for the sake of his great-grandson, he made you his child bride."

Zhang Lexuan's face turned pale instantly, a surge of thoughts racing through her mind, shattering the ideal she held in her heart.

Just then, Xu Jiujiu seemed to have said enough, and pointed to the sky, saying, "Let's see how long your Shrek experts can hold out. I think that Dean Xian is about to be finished."

Zhang Lexuan looked up at the sound, her gaze suddenly trembling.

In mid-air, Xian Lin'er was surrounded by layers of moon shadows. Sometimes, the moon shadows would burst out with surging beams of light like soul-guided rays, and sometimes they would transform into physical moon wheels and slash out.

Xu Tianxi's figure moved stealthily among the moon shadows, appearing in each moon shadow at any moment, as if opening a series of spatial gates, transforming into a ghostly assassin.

With each shift of light and shadow, a bloody gash would appear on Xian Lin'er's body, and her black hair would turn white. Xu Tianxi seemed to be intentionally using this method to deplete Xian Lin'er's vital energy.

In fact, this fighting method was extremely effective. While Xu Tianxi was talking with Zhang Lexuan for a long time, he had already left hundreds of bloody scars on Xian Lin'er's body. Xian Lin'er, who was known as the "Flying Valkyrie", had her black hair turn into a waterfall of white, and her face looked extremely old, as if she had aged decades.

Gradually, Xian Lin'er's eyelids grew heavy. She felt that her opponent's fighting style was very familiar, like Zhang Lexuan, and also like... Old Song.

"What exactly do you want? If you have the guts, fight me head-on!" Xian Lin'er roared hoarsely, her wrinkled scales bulging.

"Alright, as you wish!" Xu Tianxi's voice came from all around.

As Xian Lin'er was on guard, an invisible and formless blade of light suddenly swept past from behind, piercing through her back.

"Sizzle—!" "Ah~!"

Xu Tianxi plunged a knife into Xian Lin'er's back, his right hand gripping the Level 9 Demon God Blade. The moon shadow transformed into a moon blade, extending its light. With a fierce glint in his eyes, he swung the blade at Xian Lin'er's right arm.

"Splash!" "Ouch!"

The same design as Ma Xiaotao appeared on Xian Lin'er. Her right arm, holding a spear, grazed the moon blade. Even though she tried her best to avoid it, a section of her forearm was cut off, and blood flowed freely.

"Boom~!"

With a powerful knee strike, Xu Tianxi broke through Xian Lin'er's protective soul power, sending her flying. Blood splattered across the sky as she crashed to the ground like a giant eagle with broken wings.

Before Xian Lin'er could react, the moonlight turned black, clearly indicating a lunar eclipse, and burst forth with a tiny, extremely concentrated, dangerous black light that pierced the sky and plummeted down.

Immobilized for a moment, Xian Lin'er's pupils shrank: "This is Zhang Lexuan's move! Who are you?!"

Xu Tianxi chuckled lightly, then used his Frosty Moon Gaze to send two glints of cold light flashing from his eyes as he swept over the Shrek Academy experts flying toward him.

"Perhaps I'll tell you after they've all fallen."
