Douluo: Martial Soul Nine-Tailed Fox, I am the White Fox Emperor

With a large number of soldiers laying down their weapons, the Martial Soul Empire achieved a complete victory in this battle!
It should be noted that, according to rough estimates, the number of casualties on the Spirit Empire's side in this battle should not exceed three thousand!
With a total of over 20,000 Soul Masters, less than 3,000 casualties, this was already a very successful battle.

At this moment, Qianfeng flew to Hu Bai's side and asked in a low voice, "Your Highness, so many people have surrendered, what should we do?"

Generally speaking, those who surrender are not killed, but are imprisoned.

But with so many Tian Dou soldiers right now, there aren't enough places for them to be housed.

Even if they could be placed in different captivity, there are too many of them. What if they rebel again?
When the Soul Masters of the Spirit Empire retreat, the troops of Tianshui City alone will be unable to withstand them.

Hu Bai thought for a moment and said, "Don't worry about that, I'll take care of it."

"Tianmeng, there's something I need your help with," Hu Bai said to Tianmeng Ice Silkworm.

Tianmeng Ice Silkworm was also somewhat curious: "Little White, how do you plan to settle these tens of thousands of soldiers?"

Hu Bai said calmly, "With my spatial artifact, I can open an alternate dimension. If you squeeze your space a little, it can still accommodate this many people."

"However, there are too many of them, and I'm a little worried about so many people going into the other dimension."

"So...?" Tianmeng Ice Silkworm suddenly had a bad feeling.

Hu Bai grinned, revealing his white teeth. "So you'll need to go in too. With your mental strength, you'll definitely be able to stabilize this space and find a way to calm them down."

"Of course, I'll give you this bell too. All you need to do is go in and calm them down for me."

"Holy crap! Little White, are you even human?!" Tianmeng Ice Silkworm immediately protested, "You want me, a dignified million-year-old soul beast, to be the guard? Replace me with someone else!"

"Should we switch to Hyotei or Yuki-tei? Among the three of you, who do you think is more suitable to do this?" Hu Bai said calmly.

"Besides, I won't let you do this for long. Once the Heavenly Dou Empire sends the ransom, we can let them leave. This is an army of tens of thousands of people, and food alone is a huge expense. I'm not going to keep them."

Seeing that Hu Bai had already said so, what else could Tianmeng Ice Silkworm say?
Immediately afterwards, Hu Bai took out the spatial artifact Starry Sky Rift Blade and drew out an alternate dimension, where a purple bell floating in the space rang.

"Those who are willing to surrender, all of you, enter this space and wait for your Emperor Xueye to deliver the ransom to Wuhun City. Then you will be released!"

As he spoke, Hu Bai looked at Prince Xue Xing, whose face was extremely pale in the distance. He was speaking to him.

Besides Titan and the Grand General, Prince Snowstar also accompanied them on this expedition.

As the bells rang, signaling their arrival, all the Heavenly Dou soldiers lined up and entered the alternate dimension one by one.

The Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm also jumped out of Hu Bai's sea of ​​consciousness, transforming into the appearance of a child, and said to the people, "Hurry up, hurry up!"

He was very unhappy. Why should he have to do this kind of thing? He would rather he just sleep in the soul bone.

He preferred sleeping to doing something meaningless.

Everyone present, witnessing Hu Bai's incredible skill, exclaimed in astonishment: "His Highness the Holy Son is invincible! Long live His Highness the Holy Son!"

"His Highness the Holy Son is invincible!"

"Long live His Highness the Holy Son!"

After half an hour, all the Heavenly Dou soldiers went inside. Tianmeng Ice Silkworm picked up the bell and followed them in.

Hu Bai then put away the double-edged sword.

Back in the city.

Shui Bing'er came out to greet him immediately and took out a pill that could restore soul power: "Brother Bai, thank you for your hard work. This is a pill that can restore soul power."

Hu Bai smiled slightly. Although he also had items in his soul tool to restore soul power, this was Shui Bing'er's kind gesture, so he naturally wouldn't refuse.

Xie Tian and Hu Leyao followed behind Hu Bai, looking Shui Bing'er up and down, both revealing gossipy smiles.

Shui Bing'er felt uncomfortable being stared at by the two of them and shyly lowered her head.

When Xie Tian saw this, he immediately felt that Shui Bing'er had probably fallen in love with his son, but his son was already engaged to Qian Renxue, which made things a bit difficult.

However, let the children handle their own affairs.

If Xiaobai can marry several wives, then he's really capable!
"Thank you, Bing'er," Hu Bai said, swallowing the pill.

"Sister, why are you in such a hurry? Wait for me!"

At this moment, two more people appeared behind Shui Bing'er: Shui Yue'er and Xue Wu.

Shui Yue'er finally saw Hu Bai's face up close, and her eyes immediately lit up with excitement: "Wow, sister, is this the Holy Prince you were talking about? He really looks just like you described! Even if he were dressed as a woman, he would definitely look like one!"

"woooooo"

When Shui Bing'er saw Shui Yue'er utter the words "women's clothing," she quickly tried to cover Shui Yue'er's mouth, but it was too late; Hu Bai had already heard everything.

Shui Bing'er quickly explained, "Ahem, Brother Bai, don't listen to Yue'er's nonsense. She's just praising your good looks. She's a little infatuated."

Hu Bai's eyes gradually turned dangerous: "What did you say to your sister that made her say the words 'cross-dressing'?"

Shui Bing'er looked slightly embarrassed. Seeing that things were going badly, she quickly turned around and grabbed her sister, ready to run away.

But Hu Bai reacted quickly and grabbed Shui Bing'er's fair and delicate hand.

Shui Bing'er did not expect to be captured, and Hu Bai was quite strong.

She fell halfway into Hu Bai's arms, while her other hand was still holding onto Shui Yue'er.

Shui Yue'er looked at the two people hugging, blinked her innocent eyes, and immediately smiled like an aunt: "Ew~~"

Shuiyue'er and Xuewu exchanged a glance and both saw the barely suppressed smiles on their faces.

This was the first time Shui Bing'er had ever felt Hu Bai's aura so closely.

Hu Bai had just finished fighting, but there was no trace of blood on him; instead, he had a faint fragrance.

Faintly, a few drops of water mist rose from Shui Bing'er's head. Her body was completely stiff, and she dared not move at all.

Hu Bai hadn't expected that with just a gentle pull, Shui Bing'er would fall into his arms on her own.

If he says he didn't do it on purpose, would you believe him?
But looking at the expressions on his parents' and Shui Yue'er's faces, Hu Bai knew that there was no way to explain it.

"Hehe, little monster, it hasn't been that long since we last met, and you've already kidnapped another little girl."

Dugu Bo walked over slowly with his hands behind his back.

Upon hearing Dugu Bo's voice, Shui Bing'er quickly left Hu Bai's embrace, silently lowering her head, not daring to look at him, displaying the shyness of a young girl.

Hu Bai said, "Old monster, stop making fun of me. When I got here, I found the battlefield was very tense. What were you planning to do if I hadn't arrived in time?"

With that, the group of them went into the city together.

Dugu Bo waved his hand and said, "What else can I do? If you hadn't come back, I couldn't just stand by and watch you die, could I?" "This time, I brought these newly joined Soul Masters to the Spirit Empire with the intention of finding out who is an Empire spy and who is really willing to sacrifice themselves for the Spirit Empire. But after several small battles, we haven't found out many people."

"Spies should only make up a small portion of the 20,000 Soul Masters. I can't just stand by and watch the other loyal Soul Masters die because of them, can I?"

"So, if you hadn't shown up, I would have had no choice but to use the venom of the Azure Phosphorus Serpent to poison all of the hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the Heavenly Dou Empire!" Dugu Bo said ruthlessly.

"Since you arrived in time, that means you all obtained satisfactory ninth spirit rings during your trip to the Star Dou Great Forest, right?"

"Actually, I originally thought you wouldn't make it. After all, it's quite difficult to find a suitable soul beast that's close to 100,000 years old. You've only been in the Star Dou Great Forest for less than ten days, right?"

Generally speaking, the time required to hunt soul beasts can range from a few days to one or two months.

Moreover, the more selective you are about the type of soul beast, the longer it will take.

Xie Tian chuckled: "Then our harvest this time will exceed Senior Dugu Bo's expectations. Thanks to Xiao Bai, I've found a 100,000-year-old soul beast as my ninth soul ring!"

Xie Tian's face was full of pride and smugness.

A 100,000-year-old soul beast!
Dugu Bo's eyes widened in surprise; this kid's got some skills!

It's worth noting that the only 100,000-year-old soul beasts that were truly famous in the Star Dou Great Forest before were the Titan Giant Ape and the Azure Bull Python.

These two had already been sacrificed to Xie Yue and Shui Bing'er respectively.

There are probably very few 100,000-year-old soul beasts left in the Star Dou Sect.

In just a few days, Hu Bai and his two companions actually found two of them!
Hu Leyao smiled and shook her head: "Senior Dugu Bo misunderstands. My ninth spirit ring was not provided by a 100,000-year-old spirit beast."

Dugu Bo frowned: "That's true. What you need is a spirit-type soul beast. I've basically never seen a soul beast of this level."

Hu Leyao nodded: "That's right, so after Brother Tian finished absorbing the soul ring and soul bone, we searched for two more days without success, and then we left."

"We thought the battle of Tianshui City was also important, so we didn't delay too much."

"So, what is your ninth spirit ring?"

Hu Leyao: "Xiaobai gave me his divinely bestowed soul ring, so my ninth soul ring is also 100,000 years old."

Dugu Bo glanced at Hu Bai but said nothing.

This kid really knows how to treat his parents.

Even though his own soul ring slots weren't full, he gave Hu Leyao the only remaining divinely bestowed soul ring he had.

Upon entering the city, Dugu Bo took Xie Tian and Hu Leyao to the military camp and told them about the events of the past few days.

Hu Bai went to the logistics department with Shui Bing'er and the other two.

Shuiyue chattered incessantly beside Hu Bai.

"Brother Bai, do you have a girlfriend?"

"How did you become so strong?"

"You're so handsome! Hehe!"

"My sister was right, you would definitely look beautiful in women's clothing!"

Hu Bai:
He knew Shuiyue was a lovesick girl, but wasn't she talking a bit too much?

Hu Bai said somewhat helplessly, "Why do I have to wear women's clothes? Don't I look handsome like this?"

Ignoring her sister's warning look, Shui Yue'er continued, "Of course you're handsome, but Brother Bai, your skin looks better than any of ours. If I could dress up as a girl just once... hehe."

Shuiyue'er's lips began to moisten slightly at the thought of Hu Bai dressed as a woman.

While she was daydreaming, she actually started drooling!
Shui Bing'er raised an eyebrow and said to Shui Yue'er, "From today onwards, your cultivation time will be doubled!"

"Huh? Why, sister? Cultivation is hard work. It's better to spend more time looking at handsome guys." Shui Yue'er grabbed Shui Bing'er's hands and shook her, starting to act coquettishly.

Shui Bing'er said seriously, "No, if you don't cultivate properly, wouldn't it be a waste of what I gave you?"

Shui Yue'er wanted to say that her cultivation was a little slower, but she still had Sister Xue Wu.

But Shui Bing'er was unusually serious for once. She pouted and didn't argue back.

They could only swallow this bitterness with tears in their eyes.

If she could cultivate with Hu Bai, she wouldn't find it bitter at all. Hu Bai's looks alone would be enough to make her eat three bowls of rice!
Shuiyue'er looked like a lovesick woman.

Seeing Shui Yue'er's silly grin, Shui Bing'er rubbed her forehead, feeling that her sister was hopeless. Although her sister had been a bit of a fangirl and liked handsome guys before, she had never been like this.

"Haha." Hu Bai couldn't help but chuckle as he looked at Shui Bing'er's troubled expression.

Shui Bing'er said coquettishly, "Still laughing? It's all your fault!"

"Blame me?"

Shui Bing'er nodded: "It's all because you're too handsome. Look at Bing'er like this, it's so embarrassing."

Hu Bai couldn't help but chuckle: "It's my fault for being handsome? How about I become a little uglier?"

Hu Bai activated his simulated soul skill, instantly transforming into a different form.

Shui Bing'er:
Upon seeing Hu Bai's state, Shui Yue'er immediately returned to normal.

"Ahem, Brother Bai, you don't need to be like this."

"Hahaha--"

Now it was Shui Bing'er and Xue Wu's turn to laugh together.

Shui Bing'er also asked, "Brother Bai, how did you manage to change like this? How did you suddenly become so ordinary?"

Hu Bai smiled and said, "This is the fourth skill of my third soul skill, Mental Simulation. By distorting space with mental power, I can change the color and aura of my soul rings, change my appearance, and even become invisible."

"Of course, the change here only changes how I appear to you. My actual facial features are definitely not changed at all. If you don't believe me, touch them and see."

Hu Bai leaned closer, indicating that he could touch his beard.

Shui Bing'er blushed and reached out her small hand, wanting to touch Hu Bai's black beard, but her hand passed right through it.

Moreover, the distortion of space is clearly visible as one passes through it.

"How amazing!" the three exclaimed.
