Douluo Dalu: The Eyes That Defy Fate

Chapter 283 Filial Daughter Dances with Greatsword

Han Ruoruo, who had wreaked havoc in the imperial palace and royal residences for so long, finally paid a heavy price for her reckless behavior.

No one knows what happened in the locked room.

However, judging from the faint 'wailing' sounds, it was definitely a 'cruel and inhumane' punishment.

With Lin Po's abilities, he was able to perceive the situation inside the room without any hindrance.

However, he himself had no interest in prying into other people's secrets, especially someone as important to him as Zhang Lexuan.

That's why the little tricks the girls in the family use are so effective.

He would often find himself covered in dirt and embarrassment, making it impossible to defend against.

Lin Po, who felt he hadn't spent enough time with them, would often just laugh it off.

It's just family fun. As long as the relatively flexible bottom line isn't crossed, who would care too much?

Just as Lin Po was reminiscing about happy times, the two elderly men, who had been silent for a long time, couldn't bear to see the slightly 'disgusting' warm smile on his face.

At Kong Deming's prompting, Jing Hongchen, who held the lowest position, had no choice but to risk being beaten up and interrupt Lin Po's thoughts.

"Hey Lin, when are you planning to lure those two Soul Beasts over? You should at least give us some time to prepare."

Lin Po: “.”

That old man has no sense of propriety!
"About two weeks from now."

"The Evil Emperor and Emperor Tian are gathering the soul beasts of the Mingdou Mountain Range."

After it's done, the Evil Emperor will sacrifice himself to me, becoming the eighth spirit ring of my second martial soul. The process will probably take three or four days.

"Then you can prepare for the great battle. Let's set the location at the border of Xingluo, which will give Xu Jiawei a shock."

"As for how to fight, that's entirely up to you. I won't interfere too much, but I'll definitely make sure you're neither dead nor crippled."

Seeing that the boy had managed to suppress his displeasure and answer his question, Jing Hongchen subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.

Damn it, luckily I was smart enough to find a question that this kid couldn't refuse.

Otherwise, I'd probably be flying in the sky right now!
As the mastermind behind 'murdering' Jing Hongchen, Kong Deming first glanced at the shameful fellow beside him who looked relieved.

Then, with a helpless expression, she looked at Lin Po, her words revealing her 'heartache' for the Star Luo Emperor.

"Hey kid, do you have a grudge against Xu Jiawei?"

No, why do you ask that?

Lin Po couldn't help but feel curious upon hearing this, wondering why Kong Deming would have such an illogical question.

"Really not? Then I find it strange. Why is it that as soon as you have a plan, you start causing trouble for the Star Luo Empire?"

"You can count for yourself how many times this has happened."

"During the previous Soul Fighting Tournament, I made the princess cry and stole the treasure vault, forcing her to openly sever ties with Shrek Academy."

"Let's leave those aside."

"Look at the recent events, such as the Spirit Soul Merchant Guild taking in Shrek Academy in Star Luo City, and Di Tian's rampage, etc. It's close enough that they're treating them like Shrek Academy."

"You still say you have no grudge against them?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Po froze on the spot.

It seems that's indeed the case.

The Star Luo Empire suffered greatly from beginning to end, which explains why Xu Jiawei made so many bad decisions and didn't even listen to Xu Jiujiu's advice.

So he was so angry with himself that he lost his mind!
"There's no other way. Tianhun is family, Douling is too far away and has no use for them, so only poor Xingluo is left. *Pfft*..."

As he spoke, Lin Po couldn't help but laugh out loud, and Kong Deming and the other man also laughed along with him.

A moment later, Kong Deming stopped smiling and solemnly accepted Lin Po's task.

"Well, well, we always have to make an example of someone. Since the Star Luo Empire has been able to hold out for so long, it's probably no big deal if it gets hit again."

"Let's do it your way! In a couple of days, I'll gather them together to discuss tactics."

Now that we have a rare opportunity to make a move, we must give it our all.

Otherwise, when the next one will be is anyone's guess.

"That's good. With Grandpa Kong in charge, I can feel more at ease."

Jing Hongchen: "???" What do you mean you're relieved just because Master Kong is in charge? Are you looking down on me? Although I really can't beat Master Kong.

At this moment, only the world where Jing Hongchen was injured has been achieved.

And so, the three of them took advantage of the rare free time to chat for a long time, and they almost decided on the development direction of the Sun Moon Empire for the next three years before they finally came to an end.

It wasn't that they didn't want to talk anymore, but Wang Dong'er, who seemed lifeless, suddenly made a move, instantly attracting the attention of the three of them.

"Hmm, the sword's edge is sharp and cold, it exudes a chilling aura, and it possesses a power that absolutely suppresses the soul, as well as a light aura that is almost evil. Hmm? What a strange soul power."

"As you said, apart from the martial souls of those two girls, Lingxi and Guyuena, which are stronger than this 'Frostmourne', I can't think of any other martial souls that can compare with it."

"In terms of martial soul quality alone, it is probably inferior to the Light and Dark Sacred Dragon of yesteryear."

After releasing his spiritual power and briefly sensing the aura surrounding Wang Dong'er, Kong Deming's expression became extremely serious.

Then, as if she had made up her mind, she turned to look at Lin Po.

"Young Lin, I wish to take this girl as my personal disciple. What do you say?"

"Hmm? What brings you to that idea? Do you perhaps know swordsmanship?"

"Don't try to fool me. As one of the blacksmiths, you know better than anyone how terrifying 'Frostmourne' is."

Seeing Kong Deming's determined look, Lin Po couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle.

What a shrewd old man! Is he trying to guide Wang Dong'er onto the right path by example?

"Since Elder Kong has such an idea, I will naturally not refuse, and I think Dong'er will not refuse either. However, swordsmanship still needs to be learned, otherwise the excellent Ice Extreme Divine Crystal will be wasted."

"For mere swordsmanship, I can personally go to the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School to 'invite' the Sword Douluo."

"Moreover, with Dong'er's talent, it wouldn't be difficult for her to transform that Chaotic Cloak Hammer Technique into the Chaotic Wind Slash Sword Technique!"

After receiving permission, Kong Deming's expression softened, and he began to re-examine his newly accepted apprentice.

Others may not know, but Kong Deming, who had dealt with Zhongli Wu many times, was very clear about the power of the 'Undead Catastrophe'.

Furthermore, this ability was bestowed upon him by Lin Po, who was reckless in his actions, so it's hard to say how terrifying it might be.

"By the way, what exactly is this Ice Extreme Divine Crystal you mentioned earlier? Is it a rare metal? Is it very precious?"

Once his emotions had calmed down, Kong Deming suddenly remembered the unfamiliar term Lin Po had just mentioned and asked about it without hesitation.

Unfortunately, before Lin Po could answer, Wang Dong'er's progress in fusing 'Frostmourne' had already reached its limit.

In an instant, a bone-chilling cold erupted from Wang Dong'er, even shaking the soul power barrier that Lin Po had casually set up to the brink of collapse.

Seeing this, Lin Po smirked and suddenly pulled Jing Hongchen to his position.

He then hid beside Kong Deming and stood watching.

"Come here, Grandpa Jing, stand up, something good has happened."

"Huh? What good news?"

Before the words were finished, Wang Dong'er, with her snow-white eyes, brandished her greatsword and charged straight at Jing Hongchen.

In the blink of an eye, the chilling aura emanating from the sword's edge drew near, beginning to erode and assimilate everything around it.

"Damn it, Lin kid, you've tricked me again!"

Jing Hongchen was also startled by the ice-attribute soul power and mental intimidation, and quickly took out 'Hongchen Protection' to protect himself.

Then, the three of them stared in disbelief as the irrational girl frantically swung her greatsword, trying her best to break through the impenetrable soul tool defense.

"Hiss, I have a feeling this girl is taking this opportunity to get revenge on me? She's practically shooting sparks out of the water!"

The excessively violent scene made Jing Hongchen's old face twitch, and he looked speechlessly at Lin Po, who was standing side by side with Kong Deming.

"Don't look at me. Confucius will be her teacher in the future, and it's unethical for an inferior to disrespect his superior. I'm her older brother, she definitely wouldn't have the heart to hit me."

"So, it's just you left, old man~"

Kong Deming nodded in agreement, glancing at his junior with a calm expression, as if to say 'no mistake'.

Mirror Red Dust: "."

Damn it! An old man and a kid ganged up on me!
