Douluo: Peerless Black Tortoise Moon God

Chapter 97 Ambitious Xu Jiawei, Long Time No See, Old Poison (Additional chapter for the reader of "Jue Nian Latitude")

In the Xingluo Empire, the imperial palace, accompanied by the crisp music of exquisite porcelain disintegrating after close contact with the ground, Xu Jiawei's angry roar was deafening.

"Ah! My soul bone, my soul bone!"

"Damned Dark Demon Evil Tiger, don't let me find you again within the Xingluo Empire, or I will kill you all! No, I will kill you all! Not a single one will be spared!"

While preparing a banquet in the palace to welcome Xu Jiujiu's return, Xu Jiawei was shocked to hear a distress signal coming from the Mingdou Forest. Not long after, he saw Xu Jiujiu return safely. However, he was not happy for a while because he heard from Xu Jiujiu that "they were being held hostage by their savior Jing Hongchen". His mood was ups and downs. After dispersing the palace people, the emperor's suppressed anger finally erupted.

Three soul bones over 50,000 years old! Those are strategically valuable resources, fetching tens of millions of gold soul coins at auction. Using them to enhance a soul master's foundation has a 70% chance of cultivating a Titled Douluo.

Calculated based on the lowest price, the compensation demanded by the Red Dust Hall Master this time also caused Xu Jiawei to lose 30 million gold soul coins. Considering that this kind of soul bone is in short supply, the real number is probably more than 50 million gold soul coins, which is almost close to the annual tax revenue of Xingluo Imperial City. How could Xu Jiawei not go crazy?
But can Xu Jiawei blame Jing Hongchen? He can't!
If Jing Hongchen had not taken action to kill the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, Xu Jiujiu, the pillar of the royal family, Xingyun Douluo Manyi, the national protector Douluo, and Huang Heyun, the future title holder, would have been eaten alive by the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger. When the bad news came, he would probably cry so hard that he would faint, and the imperial physician would be with him 24 hours a day.

Not only can he not blame Jing Hongchen, he also has to fulfill his promise to send out the soul bones, otherwise the future of Xu Jiujiu and the other two will be ruined, and their cultivation will hardly make any progress; the reputation of the Xingluo royal family will also be ruined, and if any royal family member is in danger in the future, don't blame others for standing idly by.

Mingde Hall Master rescued someone, but the Xingluo Empire broke their promise and refused to pay. Are you a Titled Douluo or a Super Douluo? Do you think you can get any benefits from the Xingluo Imperial Family? Pah! You have no credibility!
But the more this happened, the more frustrated Xu Jiawei felt! Given the relationship between the two empires, how is this any different from aiding the enemy? Cultivating the other side's genius to fight against him? What a black joke!

There is no other way but to vent my anger on the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger. It’s all these bastards’ fault!

Looking at the exquisite porcelain that Xu Jiawei smashed to pieces in anger, Xu Jiujiu pursed his lips, his face turned pale, and he was also in a very sad mood and gave Manyi a look.

"Grandma Manyi, quickly collect all these debris and sharp objects, don't hurt my brother."

My royal brother is already in a difficult situation, and we cannot let him get hurt again. Otherwise, who will take care of this huge empire?
Hearing this, Xu Jiawei, who was trembling with anger at the sudden disaster, trembled and put down a piece of porcelain that he was about to smash. He turned around with a heavy breath and forced a smile and said:

"Jiujiu, don't underestimate me! I've seen many ups and downs in my life, so what's a small setback like that? It's nothing, it's nothing. I just lost tens of millions of gold soul coins this time. I can earn it back by organizing a competition next year. Losses can be made back..."

Seeing Xu Jiawei, who had always been wise and decisive, suppress his sorrow and say this, Xu Jiujiu felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife. He lowered his head and said:

"I'm sorry, brother. We were too careless. If we had been more vigilant and not rashly searched for an overly powerful soul beast for Huang Heyun, perhaps we wouldn't have encountered such an accident..."

Huang Heyun's martial soul is the Dark Demon Tiger, which has dark attributes and is not inferior to the White Tiger martial soul. He has worked hard in the past two years and has cultivated to level 60 with the support of a soul bone and a large amount of resources from the Star Luo Empire. He is overjoyed.

Xu Jiujiu and the others were all thinking about finding the most powerful and suitable 20,000-year-old soul beast for him as his sixth soul ring, so that he could show off his skills in the upcoming competition. Then they found the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger...

Good news: There is no soul beast in the entire Douluo Continent that is more suitable for Huang Heyun than this one. If he can absorb it, Huang Heyun's martial soul is likely to evolve and directly get a ticket to Super Douluo.

Bad news: This soul beast is too powerful. It cannot be taken down by anyone other than a Super Douluo. It is beyond their capabilities...

Xu Jiujiu, who was suffering from bad luck, even had a thought in his mind: should he go to the worship hall to invite two more priests next time he went out? Although it was a luxury, it seemed necessary.

But it was only a moment before she suppressed this thought. She was only a princess, not an emperor, and it was impossible for her to easily invite so many priests to hunt souls.

"Royal brother, next time you hunt soul beasts, why don't you just send someone out to catch them? I haven't dared to go out for a long time..."

Xu Jiujiu hugged her slender shoulders and sobbed softly. As she spoke, two lines of tears flowed down her fair and perfect cheeks.

"No! Jiujiu, you are the princess of my Xingluo Empire and my pride! You must cheer up and never give up on yourself. I am counting on you to lead my Xingluo athletes to win the runner-up in the next competition!"

Seeing that Xu Jiujiu was close to collapse, Xu Jiawei didn't care about being angry anymore. He hurried forward and pressed Xu Jiujiu's shoulders, comforting him loudly, patting his chest and saying:
"Isn't it just killing a soul beast? What's there to be afraid of? When you reach the Soul Saint realm, I will personally go out and find the most suitable soul beast for our Xingluo Empire's princess!"

"But my royal brother..."

"No buts."

Xu Jiawei covered Xu Jiujiu's lips to stop her from saying anything unlucky:
"Don't underestimate me. Although I've slacked off on my training since becoming emperor, I'm still a Titled Douluo! Could anything else happen to me?"

Talking about his own cultivation, Xu Jiawei couldn't help but show a hint of pride on his face. As the Emperor of Xingluo, he could mobilize the resources of the whole country for his own use, including a hundred thousand year soul bone. Although he was not a Super Douluo, he had a cultivation level of ninety-four.

As the most outstanding genius of the Xingguan lineage in hundreds of years, if he had not been distracted by his role as emperor, Xu Jiawei was confident that he would have been able to retreat and gain insights long ago, and reach the 95th level.

Seeing Xu Jiawei finally cheer up, Xu Jiujiu's bad mood also cleared up. He nodded and said:

"Jiujiu certainly believes in my Royal Brother. So, Royal Brother, what should we do next?"

"There's nothing much to say. I'm just doing what I should do. I'll give what's due. I can't let the Sun and the Moon look down on me, Xing Luo. I, Xu Jiawei, can afford three soul bones! Anyway, Shrek takes three of them every twenty years, so I don't mind."

Xu Jiawei sighed and waved his hand, then his expression relaxed and he continued:

"Jiujiu, you did a great job this time. You took the opportunity to bring up the idea of ​​exchange and learning. From what you said, Jing Hongchen has actually agreed to exchange and learn with us. It's just a matter of price. That's easy to say. I will fully support you in leading your team to win the runner-up!"

"Jiujiu will definitely live up to your royal brother's expectations!" Xu Jiujiu bowed and spoke in a firm tone.

"Well, I'll wait and see." After comforting each other with Xu Jiujiu, Xu Jiawei finally regained some of his imperial demeanor. He nodded, his eyes gradually becoming deeper, and he said ambitiously:

"The Sun-Moon Empire's soul guidance technology is advancing with each passing day. The development of soul guidance devices is an inevitable trend. I will propose increasing investment in soul guidance devices at court. Our Xingluo Empire must not fall behind."

"If those stubborn guys persist in opposing me, I will fight them to the end. If there's not enough money, I will use the royal treasury to develop soul guides. The Sun-Moon Empire has an elite legion of five national protectors, and my Xingluo Empire must have one too!"

"Even if I have to smuggle large quantities of equipment on the black market of the Sun-Moon Empire, I will equip our soldiers with equipment that is no less powerful than theirs! I simply don't believe that our powerful spirit masters, after being equipped with spirit guides, will be no match for those medicine bottles of the Sun-Moon Empire!"

"My royal brother is wise." "Your Majesty is wise."

……

In the Tianhun Empire, amidst a precipitous cliff shrouded in mist.

Xu Xiaoyun was walking in the air as if he was strolling in the air. Xiao Changfeng was one step behind him, with a look of curiosity in his eyes.

The location of the Benti Sect has always been hidden and has been secluded for more than a hundred years. Even he is here for the first time.

"Teacher, I heard that the previous leader of the Body Sect, Du Bi Si, died in a life-and-death battle with Dragon God Douluo. The current leader is Du Bi Si's younger brother, Du Bu Si. I wonder how strong he is? And how many powerful people are there in the Body Sect?"

Xiao Changfeng asked, and was very interested in the famous sect, the Benti Sect.

Xu Xiaoyun said, "The old poison creature is quite capable. Over a hundred years ago, our strength was comparable. His body was stronger, and my defense was stronger, so we each had our strengths. However, we never fought tooth and nail, and each had a trump card that he hadn't used. I don't know how much progress he has made in the past hundred years."

"But in my estimation, if he didn't have a great opportunity, he would probably be stuck at the last level, unable to make any progress."

"It's hard to say about the others. I haven't been in contact with them for a long time... Perhaps they are slightly stronger than us. Their original martial spirits are indeed unique."

Xiao Changfeng nodded silently, estimating his current strength, and wondering whether he should find a master from the Body Sect to fight with later.

When powerful soul masters communicate with each other, fists are the best gift.

The two of them walked very fast, one step could be a thousand meters. In less than a minute, huge and ancient buildings built against the mountain came into view.

Among the buildings there are quaint houses, a fighting spirit arena, a simulated training environment, and an ancient scripture loft. From a distance, you can see two soul masters fighting on the fighting spirit arena, one with five rings and the other with six rings.

Surprisingly, the younger five-ring soul master had the upper hand in the battle, and the soul ring ratio was also unusual, one yellow, two purple, and two black.

There was a lot of noise all around, and many disciples cheered loudly.

"Senior Brother Long Aotian is worthy of being the number one genius of our Body Sect's younger generation. He has mastered the combat technique of fusing mental and soul power so early!"

"Even Senior Brother Liu Huan, who has activated his Black Iron-level awakening, is no match for Senior Brother Long Aotian. I think Senior Brother Long Aotian is the only choice for the Young Sect Master!"

"He's already become a Soul King before he's even fifteen, and he hasn't even taken any medication. Senior Brother Long Aotian's talent is unparalleled!"

……

High in the sky, Xu Xiaoyun followed the loud shouts of the disciples of the Body Sect and found the tall and strong figure of Long Aotian standing out from the crowd. His eyes moved slightly.

"I didn't expect that not only my Xuanming Sect has a genius, but also the Benti Sect has many talented young people. This little guy is really good. Sanshi is not as good as him."

Xiao Changfeng watched for a while, and said with deep conviction: "A thousand-year-old second ring, a ten-thousand-year-old fourth ring, this aptitude is truly exceptional. Coupled with the resources of the Body Sect, it is only a matter of time before he reaches my level in the future."

When it comes to killing hundred thousand year old soul beasts, the Benti Sect is much more ruthless than their Xuanming Sect and they would do anything for their disciples.

"Teacher, when he attacked, he used all his strength. Could it be that, like Du Bu Si, his martial soul is his own?"

Xu Xiaoyun watched from afar for a while, then shook his head and said, "It doesn't look like it. The quality of his martial spirit is a little lower than that of the old poisonous creature, but it's also very extraordinary. It might be an organ in the body, such as the skin..."

Just as Master Xu Xiaoyun and his disciple were evaluating the younger generation of the Body Sect, a dark green soul light suddenly rushed over, revealing a tall old man who was green from head to toe.

The tall old man was about to shout "Who is coming?", but when he saw Xu Xiaoyun's face clearly, he was shocked and swallowed the words on his lips. He said in disbelief:

"Are you an old turtle? How did you become so young? Could it be that you..."

Xu Xiaoyun nodded slightly, a smile appearing on his face: "It's me, Xu Xiaoyun. Long time no see, old poison. More than a hundred years have passed. Are you okay?"
