Douluo Jueshi: I Don't Want to Be an Evil Soul Master

Chapter 229 Reconstruction
Feng Ling said this, her eyes falling on Minglei Douluo.

"It's him." Minglei Douluo withdrew his gaze from Nangong Wan. "Although he concealed it, I can feel the powerful force of light contained in that power."

"The people from Shrek Academy destroyed our strongholds everywhere. They were able to find such masters all the way to Mingdu. They must be from Shrek Academy. The only person with such cultivation and attributes is Mingfeng Douluo Yan Shaozhe."

Feng Ling narrowed her eyes when she heard that, and turned to look at Ma Xiaotao beside her, but she didn't react much after hearing the name Yan Shaozhe.

Turning back, Feng Ling finally spoke in a low voice, "Okay, where did he escape to?"

Lin Xiao didn't hear much emotional fluctuation in Feng Ling's tone.

No matter the love or hate in the past, it is all in the past for Feng Ling now. What she wants now is to completely devour the power of Yan Shaozhe's Bright Phoenix to help her go further.

Perhaps there are some personal grudges involved, but judging by her performance at the moment, there shouldn't be too many.

"I don't have time to send anyone to find out the exact location, but the people from the Sun-Moon Empire have blocked the Jingyang Mountains, so they should be nearby."

Feng Ling nodded slightly after hearing what Minglei Douluo said, and leaned back a little. "If he had been hiding in Shrek Academy, it would be fine. But since he came to my door personally, I must go and meet him."

"Deputy Sect Leader, there's another expert next to Yan Shaozhe. I think her cultivation is not inferior to yours. She defeated the fourth one with one strike..."

Nangong Wan on the side spoke hesitantly, but as soon as he opened his mouth, Minglei Douluo stared at him fiercely.

Feng Ling also glanced at Nangong Wan.

"No rush. You already told me about this when you returned to headquarters to ask for help. I naturally won't put myself in danger."

"After entering Mingdu this time, Xu Tianran suddenly sent me a message, saying that he wanted me to come to the palace to discuss something."

"I don't believe that the commotion caused by the Shrek Academy people entering Mingdu won't cause them to take action. With the Sun-Moon Empire's masters accompanying us, this trip will be worry-free."

Lin Xiao, who was listening at the side, suddenly felt something in his heart.

"Deputy Master."

"What's the matter?" Feng Ling looked at Lin Xiao when she heard that.

"Yesterday, Mingde Hall was attacked by an unknown force. After returning, Mingde Hall Master Jing Hongchen also hurried to the palace. Perhaps your trip is related to this incident."

The news of the attack on Mingde Hall cannot be concealed. As long as Feng Ling enters the palace and sees Xu Tianran, she will naturally know the whole story. It is better to tell it actively to boost Feng Ling's "loyalty".

"How could such a thing happen?" Feng Ling frowned slightly, "Could it be that Shrek Academy did this too?"

Feng Ling pondered for a moment but to no avail. Suddenly, she stood up and said, "Well, in that case, I'll go to the palace first. But the business in Mingdu cannot be stopped. This stronghold..."

Feng Ling said, her eyes swept over the people in front of her. Nether Thunder Douluo suddenly stood up and said, "Deputy Sect Leader, let Lao Ba and I handle this stronghold."

"Third brother, what do you mean?" Nangong Wan at the side no longer had the same expression as before, and his voice suddenly became higher?
According to the regulations of the Holy Spirit Church, this stronghold was previously under the charge of Nangong Wan, and all the income was naturally counted on Nangong Wan's head. Now that Minglei Douluo wanted to take a considerable amount of income from him as soon as he opened his mouth, he naturally couldn't remain silent.

"Hmph, what do I mean?" Minglei Douluo sneered and looked Nangong Wan up and down. "I'm afraid that if we encounter danger here again, I will die for you, Second Elder, like the Fourth Elder did."

"You—" Nangong Wan was choked by Minglei Douluo's sarcastic tone, "Shrek Academy has already noticed this place. With the strength of you and Lao Ba, how can you defend this stronghold?"

"Hmph, even if the stronghold couldn't be defended without you, at least no one would have died needlessly." Nether Thunder Douluo wouldn't budge an inch. "I—"

"All right!"

Nangong Wan was about to say something else when Feng Ling suddenly interrupted him.

"From now on, I will personally guard Mingdu. There is no need to worry about safety." Feng Ling said, thinking for a moment, "If I remember correctly, the third and eighth brothers are both soul masters, right?"

"Yes." The Dark Thunder Douluo in front of Feng Ling no longer had the momentum he had just now, and he lowered his head and responded.

"Most of Mingdu's businesses are related to rare metals, and the upcoming Soul Master Competition with the Ordinary Alliance will be related to Soul Masters. It would be fine if the Third and Eighth Brothers were in charge."

"Second brother, you can go back to headquarters first. Xu Tianran probably has other things to ask me this time, and I'll need you to do it then."

Although she didn't see the specific situation, Feng Ling still understood Nangong Wan's character as the deputy leader of the Holy Spirit Church. She could guess what happened that night just from a few words.

No one expected the elders and disciples in the Holy Spirit Sect to be as united and friendly as in other sects, but with this incident, the relationship between Nangong Wan and Minglei Douluo was obviously irreconcilable.

If they continue to stay in the same place, they might start fighting at any time. It would be better to take this opportunity to transfer Nangong Wan to another place.

After all, it is obviously more appropriate for the soul master Ming Lei Douluo to handle the affairs here.

As for Lin Xiao, he was simply brought in temporarily by Nether Thunder Douluo to make up the numbers, but at least he was in Mingdu with them normally, so Feng Ling didn't say much.

Nangong Wan's expression changed rapidly. After a long silence, he still didn't dare to resist Feng Ling. "Yes, Deputy Leader."

"Yes." Feng Ling nodded gently, "Then the reconstruction of this stronghold will also be the responsibility of the Third and Eighth Brothers."

"Oh right," Feng Ling said, suddenly turning to look at Ma Xiaotao beside her. "The Saint has been practicing with me, and she needs to release the evil fire in her body every night. I'm going to the palace tonight, and it just so happens that the Second Brother has nothing to do, so I can take her out for a while."

Lin Xiao, who was standing by, glanced at Ma Xiaotao. She looked very calm, even a little dull, and didn't look like she was disturbed by evil fire at all.

But it's also true that the evil fire in Ma Xiaotao's body becomes more intense the more it is suppressed. During the time she has been with Feng Ling, countless people have died in her flames. How could she still be disturbed by the evil fire if she indulged herself so much?

On the contrary, because he had no worries, his cultivation improved by leaps and bounds.

Nangong Wan paused for a moment, but did not refuse. He left with Feng Ling and Ma Xiaotao.

"Third brother."

After seeing the three people leave, Lin Xiao turned to look at Ming Lei Douluo, "I don't know much about the business in Mingdu yet, so I'll trouble you, Third Brother, to take care of me in the future."

"Okay, okay." Minglei Douluo stepped forward and patted Lin Xiao's shoulder, the sadness in his expression no longer showing as it did at the beginning.

Lin Xiao's eyes moved slightly when he saw this, but he didn't say much in the end.

　Wait a minute, it will be later.
