Douluo: Lord of Arms

Chapter 195 Persuasion
Sitting in the chair of the Star Luo Branch Hall Master, Lin Xingyu picked up the tea leaves placed to the side. Upon opening the box, he saw that the tea leaves inside were plump and full, and a fragrant aroma emanated from them.

It is clearly a rare and exquisite piece.

He took out the purple clay teapot and tea set from the side, cleaned them one by one, then boiled water and sat there quietly waiting.

A moment later, with the gurgling of boiling water, Lin Xingyu rinsed all the teaware with hot water, and then used a spoon to scoop out a batch of tea leaves and put them into the teapot.

Pour out some boiling water gently, then discard the rinsed impurities. Slowly pour hot water along the edge of the teaware to avoid directly hitting the tea leaves. After one minute, pour the brewed tea into the three cups in front of you.

Picking up the cup in front of him, Lin Xingyu inhaled the refreshing aroma of tea and leaned back comfortably in his chair.

While Tang Wulin and the others were still striving for the status of an inner disciple, he himself was now sitting in the chair of the highest authority in the Star Luo Continent of the Tang Sect, quietly sipping his tea.

It's so uncomfortable.

Well, he was only able to sit here because Hu Jie and Mu Ye had left and there was no one else in the house.

But didn't he also get to sit on the highest chair in the Tang Sect's Xingluo branch?

After all, nothing beats being in the right place at the right time.

Mu Ye and Hu Jie went outside the city together, and now it is unknown where they are.

When the two of them came this time, they knew that a battle between them was inevitable. They said they wanted to revitalize the Body Sect, but they still had to fight to prove that they had the strength.

Just thinking about Hu Jie's disdain for Muye before leaving, and his statement that he would teach Muye a lesson on behalf of his senior, Lin Xingyu couldn't help but want to laugh.

Although his grandmaster uncle had considerable soul power, excellent talent, and some personal aptitude, he wasn't very good at networking and gathering intelligence.

Even though Mu Ye is a very low-key person, and among the titled Douluo, he has very little karma, don't you guys usually pay more attention to him?

The news of Mu Ye's breakthrough could not be kept from the Spirit Pagoda. At that time, the place where he broke through was not far from Tian Dou City, and the Spirit Pagoda also had a Super Douluo stationed in Tian Dou City.

Even when the teacher was only at level 94, he was already a four-word Battle Armor Master and a God-level Mecha Master, his combat power definitely reaching the Limit Douluo level. Even if he had just touched the Limit Douluo level, he still possessed maximum combat power.

"The teacher has been at the breakthrough level for so long now, and you still haven't updated a single message. You're not doing a good job as the Tang Sect branch master."

Although Lin Xingyu complained inwardly, he didn't say much. It was good for Mu Ye to teach Hu Jie a lesson. If he didn't beat Hu Jie into submission, there would be no room for negotiation.

In just a brief exchange, Lin Xingyu sensed that Hu Jie was somewhat reluctant to return to the Body Sect, and instead felt a strong attachment to the Tang Sect.

……

“Right here, we’re far enough away from Xingluo City.” Mu Ye said as they stopped in the middle of a mountain range.

Hu Jie snorted and said, "Then let's see here what makes you, a level 94 sect master, think you can revitalize the sect."

Makino remained silent for a moment, then looked at Hu Jie with a somewhat dangerous gaze.

Mu Ye stood in the void and instantly activated his martial spirit. The next moment, his dark golden fist smashed towards Hu Jie.

The moment he made his move, a set of dark gold clothing rapidly covered his entire body, causing his aura to surge.

At the same time, a pair of huge, dark golden wings unfolded behind him, and at the moment he made his move, his body was still only the size of a normal person.

But as his fist slammed out, his body suddenly swelled, transforming into a dark golden giant hundreds of meters tall when his fist landed in front of Hu Jie.

The terrifying power of qi and blood was like a furnace, causing the surrounding temperature to rise instantly.

As Makino's fist landed, everything around him trembled, and black cracks appeared in the air.

"A four-word Battle Armor Master?!" The faint smile that had been on Hu Jie's face vanished instantly.

As golden light emanated from his body, nine spirit rings—six black and three red—appeared on his skin. He also donned a set of battle armor that was both gold and silver, and his aura surged.

A huge phantom appeared behind him, but this phantom was bare-chested, with golden mist emanating from its body, and a golden halo appeared behind it.

"boom!"

As Mu Ye slammed his fist into Hu Jie, Hu Jie was sent flying backwards for over a hundred meters, his enormous belly trembling as Mu Ye's power dissipated.

"Soul power level 98! Qi and blood have reached their limit!" Hu Jie suddenly felt a toothache.

"What are the Tang Clan's intelligence departments doing? Their intelligence is years behind!"

Having made up his mind, Hu Jie planned to conduct a major purge within the Tang Clan's intelligence department upon returning.

Kick out all those lazy bums and good-for-nothings.

Hu Jie raised his eyebrows slightly, and after a nimble turn in the air, he quickly adjusted his position. His entire body then expanded violently, instantly growing to over a hundred meters tall, transforming into a giant that merged with the golden light and shadow behind him, looking exactly like Mu Ye.

At the same time, as Hu Jie twisted his waist and hips, a silver light appeared on his buttocks.

These golden and silver lights intertwined, revealing a golden belly and silver buttocks—the true form of dual martial souls.

A level 98 Super Douluo, a four-word Battle Armor Master? It makes no difference who he is!
Golden light rapidly emanated from Makino's body, emanating from his spiritual domain!

After the golden spiritual realm appeared, Mu Ye's blood and qi power no longer manifested. It wasn't that his blood and qi power had weakened, but rather that it had been completely contained and brought under his complete control.

"boom!"

The golden fist, like a falling meteor, shook and tore apart everything around it, its surging power causing the surrounding space to continuously rip apart.

Hu Jie was clad in gold and silver, and the power all over his body gathered into vortexes that swirled rapidly around him. At the same time, his eyes turned completely purple.

Purple Demon Eye.

The spiritual power of the Spirit Realm also extended outwards, colliding with Mu Ye's spiritual domain.

For powerful individuals like them who possess their own martial soul, especially those who have reached the level of Super Douluo and have touched upon the laws, they have their own understanding of their own power.

Those fancy soul skills are far less powerful than the combat skills they developed themselves.

Unless those are 100,000-year-old soul skills, they won't be useful in their battles.

Generally speaking, apart from amplification-type soul skills, their effects are really not that great.

"boom!"

After another collision, Hu Jie fell to the ground with a somewhat unpleasant expression. The opponent's blood and qi were simply too strong, both in terms of purity and quantity, far exceeding his expectations.

"Good!" Makino laughed loudly and threw another punch.

An indescribable force shook the surrounding area.

Since his breakthrough, Makino has been looking for a suitable opponent to test his current strength.

However, apart from him, the Body Sect didn't have a single Title Douluo, and he himself was a rather reclusive person.

He was simply immersed in his own world, doing what he loved.

There are not many friends or enemies.

Unable to find a suitable opponent to match him, he knew his strength had greatly improved, but he had been unable to unleash it.

He felt a surge of excitement, a feeling of finally finding a worthy opponent. This feeling was indescribable to Makino, especially since they were on the same path; the fight was not only comfortable but also filled with an indescribable thrill!

On the other side, after falling into a complete disadvantage, Hu Jie also brought out his trump card.

Gold and silver colors flowed continuously around him; as a Super Douluo, he naturally had his own unique skills.

As a possessor of twin martial souls, especially since his two martial souls belong to the same category, he naturally has some knowledge of martial soul fusion techniques.

However, after so many years, even though his two martial souls, Golden Belly and Silver Hips, belong to the same level and can be said to complement each other.

His spirit fusion skill was ultimately lacking; it could allow two spirits to work together, but it wasn't a true spirit fusion skill.

However, his pursuit was not to develop a martial soul fusion skill, but to take it a step further and completely fuse the two martial souls.

This also shows just how incredibly privileged Wu Siduo is!
Not only do they possess twin martial souls, but they are also born with the ability to perform self-martial soul fusion techniques.

Another Super Douluo spent most of his life researching, but only gained a superficial understanding.

"boom!"

Under their deliberate control, the battlefield continued to shift deeper into the mountains, and the fighting lasted longer and longer.

Hu Jie grew increasingly alarmed as the fight progressed. From the beginning to the end, even his most powerful techniques were completely overwhelmed by his opponent. Mu Ye, on the other hand, became more and more excited and his fighting became smoother and smoother. He felt as if he had clearly grasped the path to the limit, and all he needed to do next was to go into seclusion to successfully break through to the Limit Douluo level.

boom!
"Good!" With another collision, Makino couldn't help but burst into laughter.

In his excitement, he casually summoned Little Red, which instantly appeared in his hand and transformed into a blood-red longsword.

As his blood and energy flowed into it, the longsword and his aura instantly merged into one, causing his aura to surge once again.

The blood-red longsword also grew to over a hundred meters in length, perfectly matching his current physique.

"Kill me!"

With a loud laugh, Mu Ye turned around and slashed down with his sword. This slash connected heaven and earth, like a god wielding his sword to slay everything, or like a demon wielding his sword, filled with the will that my fate is in my own hands.

With boundless power and an immense will, it tore apart and annihilated everything!
Combat Technique - Seven Heaven-Defying Blades!

This is a combat technique based on one's own spirit and energy, with the power to kill everything. The stronger one's mental will, the more powerful the falling blade will be.

This was developed by Mu Ye after he completely refined the mecha Xiao Hong. It was a summary of his own combat skills and a combination of his own abilities after receiving the Qi and Blood Secret Technique from Lin Xingyu!
"Damn, you're serious!"

Hu Jie couldn't help but curse inwardly as he watched Mu Ye get more and more excited as the fight progressed.

The battle had already begun, and although he was being dominated by Makino, he was still able to put up a fight occasionally.

Now the opponent has even pulled out a god-level mech, which seems to provide him with an enhancement no less than that of a four-word battle armor.

This would then become a weapon, amplifying its destructive power even more terrifyingly.

What a slap in the face!

Even a typical Limit Douluo would have to take a couple of hits, and might even be chased and beaten by Mu Ye.

Only those who have progressed a certain distance from the Limit Douluo level can probably suppress Mu Ye.

Even from his own perspective, Mu Ye's blood and spirit had reached their limits, and his soul power was also faintly touching the edge. His mentality was better than ever before.

Once I get back, I'll probably be able to break through; I've become a training dummy!
No wonder this kid was so confident in discussing with me how to revitalize the Body Sect.

Let's just talk about his status and not anything else. You have to know that Hu Jie's position in the Tang Clan is by no means low.

His status is only slightly lower than that of the two Limit Douluo of the Tang Sect, so he can be considered the third person in the Tang Sect.

He was in charge of everything related to the Tang Sect in the Star Luo Continent.

Under these circumstances, Hu Jie's status was naturally very high.

Or rather, Hu Jie's ability to rise to such a high position after leaving the Body Sect and joining the Tang Sect shows he has some skill.

boom!
With another collision, Hu Jie, looking quite disheveled, scurried a distance further into the mountains.

……

In Hu Jie's office, he could feel the tea gradually cooling down.

Lin Xingyu slowly took a sip.

Fragrant!
I don't know what kind of tea it is, but the tea has absolutely no bitterness, only a pure aroma.

He casually rummaged through Hu Jie's desk, took out all of his tea leaves, and stored them in his own storage soul tool.

Since we're already here, we should bring some gifts back with us.

These teas are quite good.

I dare not refuse a gift from an elder.

I wonder what the outcome of their exchange was, and whether there was a winner or loser.

Just as Lin Xingyu was leisurely sitting there sipping his tea, his brow twitched slightly.

The door opened, and Mu Ye and Hu Jie walked in one after the other.

At this moment, Makino had an undisguised smile on his face, and he stood tall with his head held high, his chubby figure exuding pride.

Hu Jie, standing behind, looked quite disheveled.

Not only did he walk with a limp, but his hands also seemed to have some difficulty, and his face was bruised and swollen.

As for his body, Lin Xingyu couldn't see it, but judging from his somewhat stiff posture, he was clearly not feeling well.

Looking at Lin Xingyu, who was leisurely sipping tea in his seat, Hu Jie's lips twitched, but it seemed to aggravate some wound, and he couldn't help but grimace.

In the end, he said nothing.

Looking at the two people who walked in.

Lin Xingyu stood up from his chair, picked up the two cups of tea that had already been brewed, tested the temperature, and smiled, "Teacher, Grandmaster Uncle, the tea is just the right temperature. Come and calm down."

"Indeed, my disciple is the best." Mu Ye accepted it with a smile.

Hu Jie snorted and took the other cup, drinking it all in one gulp.

As the tea was poured down his throat, Hu Jie was somewhat surprised. He wondered what had been added to the tea, which contained an extremely abundant vitality.

As this life force spread, a cool sensation flowed from his stomach to his limbs and bones.

Although his injuries weren't serious, they still caused him pain for a while. Now, under the influence of a life force, his injuries seemed to have healed almost completely in an instant.

Hu Jie's expression softened instantly, and his gaze towards Lin Xingyu became gentler.
