Douluo Dalu: The Eyes That Defy Fate

Chapter 208 Changes in Mingdu

In just one dinner, the girls had already become quite close.

As Lin Po had predicted, the naturally lively Di Lingxi was the first to integrate into the group, calling out "sisters" with great joy.

She was especially close to Han Ruoruo, which made Lin Po worry that the girl might be corrupted by Han Ruoruo.

Gu Yuena's performance surprised Lin Po.

Lin Po originally thought that this Soul Beast Lord would only be kind to him, but he didn't expect her to take the initiative to talk to Zhang Lexuan about Lin Po. She was also very gentle to other girls.

Although her expression remained aloof, Zhang Lexuan, who knew her personality, didn't mind and held her hand, chatting softly for a long time.

During their conversation, Lin Po finally learned what kind of martial spirits the two women had condensed for him.

Elemental Spirit Orb and the Dragon of Xi Yao.

Gu Yuena's martial soul is easy to understand. After all, she doesn't actually transform into a human. She just lives in human form and can easily create a 'martial soul' that reflects her own abilities.

But what's up with Di Lingxi's Xi Yao Dragon Martial Soul? Shouldn't it be a Golden Dragon Martial Soul?

Faced with Lin Po's doubts, the confused blonde girl couldn't explain it either. In the end, Gu Yuena, who couldn't bear to see her sister do something foolish, spoke up to explain the reason.

"Although Lingxi has a trace of the Golden Dragon King's bloodline, if she were to use it to condense a martial soul, she would be far from reaching the level of the Golden Dragon King and could only obtain a lower-level martial soul, the Golden Dragon."

"Not only that, but the ultimate light and ultimate fire that she already possesses will also disappear as a result, which is really a loss."

"So, after discussing and analyzing, we chose another method, which is simply to fuse the Ultimate Light Fire with the bloodline of the Golden Dragon King to create the most suitable martial soul for Lingxi."

"Then, we obtained her current martial soul. Originally, this silly girl wanted to name herself Sun Dragon, but I thought it sounded too awful, so we changed it to Xi Yao Dragon."

Xi Yao means the sun, so it is quite appropriate to use this name to describe the dragon martial soul that has fused with the ultimate light and fire.

But that's how it is.
Lin Po lay in bed, closing his eyes and recalling the information he had received at dinner. Suddenly, he felt that he might be cheated on.

Di Lingxi's Xi Yao Dragon Martial Soul, Zhang Lexuan's Moon Martial Soul, and once Di Lingxi absorbs a Sun Martial Soul and acquires the characteristics of the sun, the sun and moon might just have some kind of reaction.

What is this?! I'm going to be cheated on by some silly girl?!
Moreover, this girl's martial soul is a bit too outrageous. It combines the three ultimate attributes of ultimate fire, ultimate light, and ultimate power into one body, and also has the devouring attribute that comes with the golden dragon.

Lin Po really couldn't think of anyone who could be stronger than her in terms of martial soul talent.

Even Lin Po himself couldn't compare. No matter how special the Holy Flame Martial Soul was, it couldn't compare to a Dragon Martial Soul with three extreme attributes.

As for the Sharingan, it was purely created by the consciousness of Earth using the origin of the world, so it doesn't count at all.

"Forget it, it's good to have some talent, so she won't bully others in the future."

At this moment, Lin Po suddenly understood the fatherly feelings that Di Tian had when they were in the Star Dou Great Forest.

. . .

Lin Po's departure and return did not cause any disturbance from any forces in Mingdu, but this was all thanks to the two old men who stood in his way.

When Lin Po was already quite famous but hadn't fully revealed his abilities, Jing Hongchen alone could easily stop all forces that wanted to spy on him.

After the Soul Fighting Tournament ended, Lin Po's name spread far and wide in Mingdu, and more and more forces wanted to get a share of his profits, leaving Jing Hongchen in a difficult situation.

At that time, Lin Po was even planning to reveal some of his true abilities and call out Zhong Liwu to keep things under control, in order to gain more time to develop.

Fortunately, Kong Deming's sudden arrival instantly relieved all the pressure within the Sun and Moon Sect. With this old man there, even the royal family dared not say anything more.

This is why Xu Tianran and other forces have not come knocking on their door until now.

However, everyone knows that these two pillars of the nation can only stop them for a while, not forever. It all depends on which side can resist their desires first, ignore their warnings, and make a move against Lin Po.

Knowing this, Lin Po and the others were also racing against time.

Jing Hongchen was still in charge of leading his group of students in researching 'Battle Armor', and the process was accelerated considerably with the addition of Kong Deming and Wang Dong'er.

The results were even more encouraging. The day before Lin Po returned, Jing Hongchen's first set of three-word battle armor was completely completed and was currently being tested, only lacking practical combat testing. Kong Deming had also been extremely busy lately.

This 150-year-old man went to great lengths to ensure his great-granddaughter could smoothly take over the position.

He even entrusted the task of researching 'Battle Armor' to Jing Hongchen, and personally went to win over his old friends and juniors in Mingdu.

In the short time Lin Po was away for more than ten days, this old man even managed to bring nearly two-thirds of the ninth-level soul masters of the Sun Moon Empire to Lin Po's side, leaving Lin Po speechless.

Unfortunately, as time went on, Lin Po and his group's actions finally aroused the vigilance of the Mingdu forces.

A group of students who go to Kong Deming's house every day, Jing Hongchen who hides in Kong Deming's house all day and doesn't know what she is studying, and Kong Deming, who never goes far away once a year, is unusually busy running around in Mingdu.

All these unusual occurrences made them frown, unable to understand what these two were up to.

The emperor summoned Kong Deming more than once, vaguely inquiring whether there was anything important, but the answer he received was only that there had been a breakthrough in the field of soul tools.

In order not to offend this pillar of the nation, the emperor had no choice but to accept this mundane answer and dared not ask any further questions.

Having learned of the conversation through secret channels, Xu Tianran felt a chill run down his spine and secretly sent a bodyguard to test Kong Deming's attitude.

The result was self-evident: the assassins who tried to ambush the girls were riddled with holes by the dense moonlight rays the moment they revealed their martial spirits.

At the same time, that action temporarily shattered the Mingdu forces' idea of ​​using Xiao Xiao and others to threaten Lin Po.

With that gleaming moon-shaped martial spirit right there, they would never believe that the woman had no connection with Kong Deming.

In contrast, Lin Po did not show any change in expression after learning about the recent events from Zhang Lexuan before going into seclusion.

Only Zhang Lexuan, who knew Lin Po best, understood that her younger brother was angry. The reason for his anger was simple: Xu Tianran, that cripple, had sent people to assassinate them.

"I'm going into seclusion now. Be careful in everything you do recently, don't act alone, and wait for me to come back."

After leaving behind those words, Lin Po disappeared from everyone's sight.

After leaving the Marquis's mansion, Lin Po did not immediately go to the Spirit Realm for seclusion. Instead, he returned to the Holy Spirit Cult, which he had not visited in a long time, to seek Zhong Liwu's help.

Zhongli Wu was overjoyed to see his precious disciple, but what his disciple said next excited and surprised him even more.

"Master, I would like to ask you for a favor."

At this moment, Zhongliwu was on the verge of tears.

This is the first time in so many years that his disciple has approached his teacher with a pleading tone.

He quickly adjusted his demeanor and said in a pretentious manner, "Ahem, tell me first, what can I do to help you?"

Ignoring Zhongli Wu's teasing, Lin Po solemnly stated his request.

"Teacher, I hope you can take some measures to deal with Xu Tianran so that he will be unable to cause trouble for at least three months!"

"Hmm? Why? Disciple, weren't you planning to go into seclusion? Are you already preparing to make your move?"

"There's no other reason. A few days ago, that bastard attacked Xiao Xiao and the others while I was away!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhongli Wu's aura as a Limit Douluo suddenly erupted, and the Holy Spirit Cult's main hall trembled and was on the verge of collapse in an instant.

Zhongli Wu was both angry and scared. He really didn't expect that Xu Tianran would still dare to send people to take action even after knowing the relationship between the group of girls, Lin Po, and the Holy Sect.

If this incident causes a rift between Lin Po and his teacher, Zhong Liwu would be devastated.

"Good! I will remember this. I will make him wish he were dead."

"Thank you so much, teacher!"
