Douluo: Twin Origins, Suppressing the World

Chapter 231 The Problem of Dreaming of the Mortal World
"Although I doubted myself after reaching this conclusion, I don't believe there could be so many coincidences."

"Admit it, Jiang Xue, you are Ling Shuang!"

Meng Hongchen was full of confidence; she believed that her judgment was absolutely correct.

Ling Shuang was stunned after hearing her reasoning.

He finally understood why Meng Hongchen's attitude towards him had been somewhat strange for the past three months.

So that's when she started to doubt her own identity.

intuition……

Upon hearing Meng Hongchen's motives for investigating her, Ling Shuang was unsure how to react.

He never imagined that his identity would be exposed to something so vague and unpredictable.

Ling Shuang had never considered this matter. He believed that no one would associate Jiang Xue with Ling Shuang, so he did not throw out any smokescreens regarding his identity as Ling Shuang.

Seeing Ling Shuang remain silent, Meng Hongchen was completely certain of her guess, and her smugness grew even more pronounced.

After a long pause, Ling Shuang nodded slightly: "Yes, you guessed right, I am indeed Ling Shuang."

A green light covered his face, and his face began to change at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Jiang Xue's alluring face gradually disappeared, replaced by Ling Shuang's original aloof and noble appearance.

When she saw that familiar face appear before her again, Meng Hongchen's beautiful eyes lit up.

Sure enough, although it was the same person, Ling Shuang's face was more to her liking than Jiang Xue's.

"So, what is Miss Meng's purpose?" Despite her identity being exposed, Ling Shuang showed no sign of panic.

He looked calmly at Meng Hongchen before him and asked indifferently.

The fact that Meng Hongchen chose to talk to me privately about this shows that she didn't expose my thoughts immediately.

That must mean there's another purpose behind it.

that's the truth.

Although it was unclear why Ling Shuang had transformed into Jiang Xue, the Holy Son of the Holy Spirit Cult, Meng Hongchen had no intention of exposing him.

The Holy Spirit Church is not the Mingde Hall, and has nothing to do with her.

"Ling Shuang, you don't want your true identity to be known by the Holy Spirit Cult, do you?"

Meng Hongchen revealed a sly smile.

"Are you threatening me?" Ling Shuang's voice turned cold, her eyes narrowing slightly.

"No." Meng Hongchen waved her hand; she had no such intention.

If she really wanted to threaten Ling Shuang, she wouldn't have come alone.

Otherwise, judging from the situation when Ling Shuang used the identity of Jiang Xue, the Holy Son, to fight them on the first day of school, she would have died at Ling Shuang's hands in an instant.

"But it's not unreasonable to ask someone to keep a secret and answer some of my questions, is it?" Meng Hongchen said with a light laugh.

Ling Shuang's complexion improved somewhat:

"what is the problem?"

Meng Hongchen slowly extended a finger: "My first question is, how did you change your appearance and martial spirit?"

"You don't possess twin martial souls, do you?"

Meng Hongchen was very curious about Ling Shuang's move.

She had never seen such a method before.

Appearance aside, the ability to change one's martial soul is something that touches on Meng Hongchen's blind spots in knowledge.

In the common understanding of people in Douluo Continent, a martial soul cannot be changed.

Therefore, Ling Shuang had never worried about anyone linking Jiang Xue and Ling Shuang together. After all, their martial souls were worlds apart.

"No, these are just some minor tricks."

"What kind of application?" Meng Hongchen became interested. If she could do that, she might be able to do many interesting things.

Ling Shuang saw through her thoughts and poured cold water on them without any mercy.

"Don't even think about it, you can't do it. This is the application of the special characteristics of my martial soul."

After a pause and a moment of hesitation, Ling Shuang continued, "My martial soul is called the Twin Staffs of Creation and Annihilation, which has two attributes: destruction and life."

"As long as you control the power, you can use destructive energy to change the appearance of your martial soul. This is what you see as Jiang Xue's scythe martial soul."

"As for appearance, it's just a minor application of the laws of life. The physical form belongs to the realm of life, and a slight change is enough to transform a person's appearance."

Hearing Ling Shuang's words, Meng Hongchen was stunned.

Okay, if that's the case, she really has no way to replicate it.

She has absolutely nothing to do with destroying lives.

Without dwelling on this issue for too long, Meng Hongchen asked her second question:

"Then why did you appear in the Holy Spirit Cult, and even become the Jiang Xue Holy Son?"

She couldn't fathom Ling Shuang's motives.

Seeing that Meng Hongchen didn't care about the Holy Spirit Sect at all, Ling Shuang didn't hide this from him.

He frankly stated, "Tang Ya, the Blue Silver Saintess of the Holy Spirit Cult, is my Nan Nan's best friend. She was captured and brought to the Holy Spirit Cult due to some accidents, and I've come to rescue her."

"Then you've already done it, haven't you?" Meng Hongchen's tone was somewhat bittersweet.

He came to the Holy Spirit Cult, a place where evil spirit masters gather, to save people just because of Jiang Nannan...

This is a place that many Soul Masters on the mainland would rather avoid!
Meng Hongchen was somewhat jealous of Jiang Nannan's position in Ling Shuang's heart.

However, if that were the only reason, he should have been able to leave already.

The Blue Silver Saintess remembered that she had been following Ling Shuang around all this time, clearly indicating that she had been released to him by the Holy Spirit Cult.

“Indeed.” Ling Shuang nodded. He could indeed leave the Holy Spirit Cult with Tang Ya at any time.

"However, I've suddenly had a whim to change things up with the Holy Spirit Church, is that alright?"

"Change the Holy Spirit Cult?" Meng Hongchen frowned slightly, not understanding what was so good about changing that kind of evil soul master organization.

"An evil martial soul does not equate to an evil soul master." Ling Shuang didn't elaborate further, simply stating this.

Meng Hongchen was not a fool. After hearing this, he pondered for a moment and understood his thoughts.

Her eyes widened slightly, surprised that Ling Shuang would have such a thought.

People on the mainland have never had this idea before. In fact, the concept that those who possess evil martial spirits are evil spirit masters has become a common consensus under the promotion of Shrek Academy.

"A noble cause!" Meng Hongchen exclaimed, not believing that Ling Shuang's idea was wrong.

However, the fact that such a peerless genius, who had no connection with evil spirit masters, had this idea made Meng Hongchen very respectful.

At least she never thought about it.

"There's no need to flatter me, I'm just doing what I feel like." Ling Shuang waved her hand, not agreeing with Meng Hongchen's assessment of her.

He was merely moved by a moment of compassion, and since he possessed this ability without compromising it, he had this idea.

However, he will not fully dedicate himself to any cause of speaking out and protecting those who possess evil martial spirits.

Ling Shuang did not believe that the concept of "righteousness" applied to her.

He's just someone with a bit of humanity and happens to have some ability.
