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

Chapter 383 Candidates

The right candidate?
Just as Xue Di was still pondering, Lin Xiao raised his hand again, and Ming Lei's figure quietly appeared beside him.

"I need you to do something that you are very good at."

"What I'm good at?" Ming Lei pointed to himself. "Is it making some kind of soul tool?"

Lin Xiao shook her head upon hearing this.

"What else am I good at? You have plenty of other souls around you, so the only thing I can contribute to is making soul tools."

Lin Xiao glanced at the far northern core region that had already come into view in the distance, and revealed a somewhat mysterious smile, "Believe me, you are not only quite good at this, but you are indispensable in this matter."

Is it impossible for me?

This was the first time Ming Lei had heard such high praise from Lin Xiao.

Even when he and Feng Shen helped Lin Xiao break through to the ninth level of Soul Master, Feng Shen, who came from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy, played a greater role.

Lin Xiao's figure fell from the sky, gently raising his hand to sense the changes in the surrounding space.

As his cultivation level improved, his perception of spatial power became more pronounced. At this moment, he could clearly feel that the space in the far north was different from other places.

This doesn't seem to be caused by external forces; it's more like the spatial distribution of this world is inherently like this.

Perhaps the changes in space are related to Douluo Star itself, but Lin Xiao couldn't figure out the specific reason for it at the moment.

Continuing forward, Lin Xiao landed at the spot where Zhongli Wu had erected the statue of the Holy Emperor.

The igloo he built had long since collapsed and was buried under thick snow. The statue of the Holy Emperor inside had also been completely shattered by that attack and vanished with the cold wind.

"This is it."

Lin Xiao looked around and stopped.

Although Zhongli Wu's understanding of necromancy was rather superficial, as a level 98 Super Douluo, he had a certain perception of spatial changes. The place where the Holy Emperor statue was originally set up was the weakest point in space, and also the extreme point of Douluo Star.

Turning to look at Ming Lei, and seeing that he was still struggling with what he had just said, Lin Xiao no longer hid it.

"I need you here to help me design a gladiator."

"A gladiator arena?" Ming Lei was puzzled.

"Or you could call it a fighting arena. Anyway, you can decide the name and style yourself. As long as it's a place for Soul Masters to fight, it's enough to make sure they never leave."

Ming Lei paused slightly upon hearing Lin Xiao's request. Although he didn't know what Lin Xiao needed such a place for, this seemed to be something he excelled at.

Xue Di, who was standing to the side, suddenly understood something and turned to look at Lin Xiao, just in time to see the cold light in his eyes that had not yet completely dissipated.

Suitable candidates... Xue Di probably already guessed who Lin Xiao was referring to.

"You really don't care about old friendships."

Upon hearing this, Lin Xiao turned to look at Xue Di. Clearly, Xue Di had already guessed Lin Xiao's intentions by saying those words.

"It's not that I don't cherish old friendships, it's just that I've already given them a choice."

"If they continue to make the same decisions as before, choosing to unleash their malice at will, then why don't they come here and be used by me?"

"Because I also come from the ranks of evil spirit masters, I know them all too well. For those who want to start anew, the Tongming Sect is a place where they can let go of the past and be reborn."

"For those who want to continue doing evil, we must be even more ruthless and vicious than them. Being here can be considered as them fulfilling their last value."

The establishment of the Tongming Sect, seeking out Jing Hongchen, and then helping Ju Zi in exchange for her assistance—all of Lin Xiao's actions during this period finally connected in Xue Di's mind. These events seemed somewhat similar to the Holy Spirit Sect of the past, yet also somewhat different. It appeared as if Lin Xiao was diligently carrying out the tasks assigned by that deity.

only……

Based on her understanding of Lin Xiao, it was somewhat unlike his usual style for him to go to such great lengths just to fulfill the deity's arrangement.

"Is it that simple?" Recalling the conversation between Lin Xiao and Electrolux, Xue Di suddenly asked a question out of the blue.

"It's that simple." Lin Xiao seemed to know exactly what Xue Di was asking, and replied, raising her head slightly to look up at the sky.

The wind and snow continued, and the thick clouds in the sky completely blocked out the sun's rays.

But Lin Xiao's gaze seemed to pierce through the clouds, even reaching that high, distant place.

Though I stand on the ground, I can see what lies beyond the clouds. And that person high above, does his gaze fall upon the earth beneath his feet, witnessing the insignificant struggles of ants?
Lin Xiao's eyes were slightly closed, and after a long time, she suddenly opened them, a glint of light flashing in her eyes.

"So, do you have a preliminary plan?"

Lin Xiao turned to look at Ming Lei, who was gesturing wildly to the side.

"I do have a few ideas, but I don't know if you have any other requirements so I can find the most suitable one."

Lin Xiao's expression changed slightly upon hearing this.

Sure enough, this kind of thing still had to be done by Ming Lei, who was originally an evil soul master. His planning speed was even faster than Lin Xiao had expected.

Seemingly noticing Lin Xiao's gaze, Ming Lei scratched the back of his head somewhat embarrassedly, "To be honest, when I was in charge of the underground arena in Mingdu, I thought of many ways to improve it."

"However, at that time, I could not make any big moves, and the Holy Spirit Church's branch in Mingdu was too small, so in the end I could only make some simple changes."

"I'm not so surprised by what you say," Lin Xiao shook her head. "After all, this is one of your hobbies—watching people fight."

"But you don't need to worry too much. There are plenty of places here for you to splurge. You can try out all those ideas that you couldn't realize in the Mingdu underground arena here."

Just as Lin Xiao was making arrangements in the core area of ​​the far north, another figure appeared beneath the ice monument of the Tongming Sect.

It seemed to sense the presence of the newcomer and flew out of the mountain. However, upon seeing the newcomer, its expression changed several times in just a few breaths.

"you……"

"Where is your leader?"

Seeing that Hatred was at a loss for what to do, the newcomer took the initiative to ask a question.

"The leader... is temporarily not in the sect."

"He hasn't come back yet?"

"No, I came back once, but I had to go out again. I said I'd be back soon." Hate looked at the person in front of him and honestly told him where Lin Xiao had gone.

"Then take me inside, I'll wait for him there."

"well."

Just after Hatred brought the visitor into the Tongming Sect, two voices rang out almost simultaneously.

"Beibei?"

"Sister?"
