Douluo Dalu: The Eyes That Defy Fate

Chapter 185 Beating Up the Body Sect

Lin Po reached out and took the 'Silver Moon Divine Light Shield', and couldn't help but exclaim:
"This is truly an unexpected gain. Sister Lexuan and Elder Kong must be very happy."

The others breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Lin Po's expression finally brighten, especially the Heavenly Soul Emperor, who had just felt a sense of impending death.

However, as an emperor, maintaining a calm demeanor is a basic skill, and since everyone's attention was focused on Lin Po at the time, no one noticed anything unusual about him.

"Since it is getting late, my dear son-in-law, Imperial Advisor, why don't you stay in the palace for dinner?"

Poison couldn't object, of course. He'd gladly take advantage of the opportunity to eat the dog's food. But he subconsciously looked at Lin Po, giving him a look that said, "You're the one in charge."

Ignoring the old man's questioning gaze, Lin Po, feeling hungry, also wanted to taste what royal food was like, so he readily agreed.

"Then I will respectfully obey your orders."

Afterwards, the group, led by the eunuchs, went to a side hall and enjoyed a very harmonious dinner.

. . .

Three days later, guided by Vina, Lin Po finally arrived at the Body Sect's headquarters located in the Heavenly Barrier Land.

Originally, he planned to finish everything in the Heavenly Soul Empire as quickly as possible, and then immediately return to the Sun Moon Empire for seclusion.

However, to make up for Vina's efforts over the years, Lin Po agreed to spend a few more days with her under the girl's eager gaze.

One day of shopping, one day of vacation, one day of engagement, plus Vina's complete obedience—if he hadn't been so determined, he would have almost succumbed to her charms.

"I must say, the ancestors of the Body Sect really knew how to find places; they even managed to find such a strategically important and difficult-to-attack location."

Hearing her fiancé's sentiments, Vina covered her mouth and chuckled, while simultaneously taking out a command arrow and shooting it into the sky.

Fireworks specially made by the Body Sect bloomed in the sky. The next second, familiar teasing voices accompanied by loud laughter came from afar, making Lin Po speechless.

"Haha, Lin boy, you finally know how to get out of that 'gentle embrace' trap!"

"Old man, if you have nothing better to do, hurry up and find a partner and have a child. You're so old and you don't even have any offspring! Hmm~ Is it because no one wants you, you shorty!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the hearty laughter stopped abruptly, and then Du Bu Si twisted his face and flashed in front of Lin Po.

"You little brat, can't you talk properly! What do you mean I'm too short for anyone to want?! I haven't looked for a woman because I've been engrossed in cultivation all these years! Besides, I'm a dignified Limit Douluo, who would dare to look down on me!"

Lin Po smiled dismissively, ignoring Poison's rebuttal. Instead, he turned to Vina on his right, clenched his left fist, pointed his thumb at Poison, and said sarcastically:
"Look, they're getting anxious!"

Upon hearing this, Du Bu Si instantly turned red with anger, and his exasperated appearance made Lin Po burst into laughter. Even Vina, who always respected him, laughed out loud.

However, Poison Undying was still a centenarian, and he quickly regained his composure.

"Hmph, you better not call a halt later!"

This time it was Lin Po's turn to be unhappy. He looked at Du Busi with strong dissatisfaction. Why was this old guy causing him trouble again?
"Don't look at me like that. I didn't do this. As for who did it..."

As he spoke, Poison Undying glanced at Vina, who was still smiling broadly beside him, with an increasingly strange look in his eyes. He hadn't said anything, but he had said everything.

"Huh? Me? Didn't you say that the disciples had already accepted Brother Lin Po?"

Seeing Vina's astonished expression, Lin Po immediately understood the attitude of the Body Sect towards him.

So, unable to defy the sect leader, they outwardly acknowledged him, but secretly plotted how to give him a hard time.

Since that's the case, then don't blame him for showing no mercy.

"Old man, what do you say? Hurry up and draw a line."

When Du Busi heard Lin Po's blunt question, as if he didn't care about the safety of his own disciples, he directly pronounced their fate.

"It doesn't matter, just don't lose an arm or a leg. You know that the body is far more important to a Soul Master than to an ordinary Soul Master."

Of course, it would be even better if you could beat them up head-on.

"Fine, you said it yourself. Don't blame me if you break their spirits!"

For a fleeting moment, Poison-Undying felt a pang of regret; he had a feeling this kid was going to cause some serious trouble. But he was too embarrassed to take back what he'd said, so he could only secretly hope that his bunch of brats could take a beating and have a good mentality.

Before long, Lin Po stood alone in the center of the largest training ground within the Body Sect, surveying the many Body Sect disciples who were eyeing him covetously.

The most eye-catching among them was a fifteen or sixteen-year-old boy who was not only strong and composed, but also possessed the aura of a high-level Soul King.

'Is he Long Aotian? In terms of talent alone, he's easily in the top five of this era; it's just a pity he lacks a bit of luck.'

After making a mental assessment, Lin Po used his powerful mental strength to make his voice resound throughout every corner of the training ground.

"As you can see, I am Lin Po, the newly appointed honorary elder of the Body Sect, and a close friend of your sect leader despite our age difference!"

"I know many people are not convinced by me, so I'm standing here today to give you the opportunity to challenge me!"

"Oh, of course, not a one-on-one fight, but me taking on all of you by myself!"

As soon as Lin Po finished speaking, the entire room fell silent, all shocked by Lin Po's arrogance.

Meanwhile, on a high platform not far away, Du Busi and a group of elders were observing the situation. With their keen hearing, they naturally heard Lin Po's arrogant words.

As the second-in-command of the Body Sect, the Golden Body Douluo couldn't sit still any longer. He got up and was about to step down to stop this 'farce' when he was stopped by his elder brother.

"Brother, why are you stopping me? No matter how strong Lin Po is, he can't beat more than a dozen Soul Douluos working together! Not to mention there are so many Soul Saints and Soul Emperors!"

After hearing this, Du Busi chuckled and gestured for him to sit back and watch the show.

"Don't worry, Lin is even more outrageous than you think. Even ordinary Super Douluo can't get the better of him."

"Huh?! Big brother, you're kidding, right?!"

The unbelievable comment left everyone present dizzy and their first thought was that it was impossible.

But they knew Du Bu Si's character even better. He wouldn't exaggerate just because he thought highly of a junior. So, does this young man named Lin Po really have such abilities?

"Alright, alright, be quiet, just keep watching! A fight is about to break out!"

Just as Poison Undying was arguing, the indignant disciple of the Body Sect had already stepped onto the battle stage, and then unleashed his full power.

In an instant, the auras of more than a dozen Soul Douluos and more than thirty Soul Saints seemed to merge, pressing down on Lin Po together.

Feeling the overwhelming pressure, Lin Po still commented casually, "Not bad, not bad. With the interaction of the two forces, it has the power of an ordinary level 94 Title Douluo."

"You arrogant bastard, I'm going to beat you to a pulp!"

The leading high-level Soul Douluo snorted coldly, and eight Soul Rings—one yellow, two purple, and five black—appeared on his left leg. He then launched the first attack on Lin Po.

In the blink of an eye, the Soul Douluo flashed above Lin Po, and with the amplification of his Soul Rings and the Body Sect's combat skills, his left leg delivered a powerful and heavy blow from nowhere.

However, what happened next left everyone speechless.

A barrier shimmering with white-gold flames appeared around Lin Po, effortlessly blocking the attack that was powerful enough to split mountains and shatter rocks.

"The left leg? The strength is good, and the speed is also good, but it's a pity that the Body Sect's combat techniques are not quite there yet."

A familiar voice came from inside the barrier, causing Soul Douluo to blush instantly, but he remained silent and used the force to leap into the air, kicking out several semi-circular soul power blades in succession.

Unfortunately, this move still had no effect; the soul blade was burned away by the white-gold flames before it even touched the barrier.

"Hmm? That move is not bad, much better than before."

"What the hell is this thing?! It can't burn my feet, but it can burn my soul power?!"

The curses and swears of the left-legged Contra made Lin Po's face darken, and he immediately retorted:
"Hey! I deliberately didn't burn your leg because I was afraid of hurting you, and you're being rather ungrateful. Get out of here!"

After saying that, a white-gold fireball with a diameter of half a meter appeared in mid-air, instantly blasting the newly awakened Soul Douluo away, sending him crashing into the outer wall of the training ground, unable to get up again.
