Douluo Continent: An Adventure Begins in Wuhun City

But then, as if remembering something, his expression turned somewhat melancholy. He paused, sighed softly, and continued speaking.

"Rather than saying that my martial spirit was evolving, it would be more accurate to say that it was recovering."

My martial spirit is extraordinary, but because of my inadequacy, it has been tarnished. I even almost used this lofty Emperor Star Domain to please those spoiled brats in the mortal world. I am truly ashamed.

Fortunately, because of you, Yao, I was able to be reborn. Perhaps, I will never again tarnish the name of Ziwei Star.

As she spoke, Tang Yuehua looked at Chen Yao, her eyes filled with gratitude and a dreamy look, her cheeks flushed a striking crimson, as if she were already overcome with passion.

Tang Yuehua sat down next to Chen Yao, leaned on his shoulder, and whispered in his ear in a seductive voice that sent shivers down one's spine, her breath hot and fragrant.

"Ah Yao, how should I thank you?"

Feeling the ticklish sensation in his ear, Chen Yao's lips twitched, and he tentatively made a sound.

"Thank me? How about you try not to die when you participate in the Hell Slaughter Arena, so you don't waste my top-quality immortal herb? That would be your way of thanking me?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Yuehua's previously alluring expression froze instantly, and she stared at Chen Yao with a stiff expression and a hint of hostility in her eyes.

"Damn it, you stinking man! Back in that tavern, you were smarter than anyone else. You could read my mind and fool me so easily that I ended up in your bed."

And now you're playing dumb with me? Do you really think you're still some innocent little boy? Humph!

With a cold snort, Tang Yuehua was too lazy to say any more nonsense. She pretended to be reserved and then pounced on Chen Yao on the bed without saying a word, just like a hungry tiger.

Her gratitude towards Chen Yao was overflowing, and no one could stop her from feeling grateful to him, not even Chen Yao himself!

Seeing Tang Yuehua's overflowing gratitude and her actions, Chen Yao looked helpless and sighed inwardly at the depravity of the world, how could people be so immoral and corrupt? It's truly a sign that people's hearts have lost their ancient virtues!

It seems that even boys need to be careful when they're out and about.

However, just as he was marveling at the sight, Chen Yao's expression froze when he felt the warm, soft touch in his arms that sent shivers down his spine. His eyes, which were now fixed on Tang Yuehua, began to gleam with a green light, revealing greed and lust.

Without further ado, they took drastic measures.

To hell with his indecent behavior!

He, Huang, is sworn enemies of gambling and drugs!

The beautiful day passed quietly, and evening arrived. Chen Yao and his companion walked down the street, oblivious to those around them, their sweet affection filling the air.

Compared to the passersby around him who were hurrying by, with fierce and murderous expressions and exuding a bloody aura, the scene was completely different.

Although we were on the same dimly lit street, it felt like we were in two different worlds.

Chen Yao was feeling hungry at this moment because he had previously consumed too much energy.

Although this killing city is extremely dark, there is still food for normal humans, so people come out to forage for food.

As for Tang Yuehua, although she had been tricked by Huang and Chen Yao into eating a lot of things that were said to whiten skin in the morning, she was so full that her lower abdomen was bulging and slightly protruding.

But now her heart is completely devoted to Chen Yao. She can't bear to leave him even when she's looking for food. Even though she feels a little uncomfortable, she insists on following him. At this moment, her face is full of satisfaction and happiness.

However, as they were walking, a commotion suddenly broke out ahead, with at least a dozen people surrounding them, and screams could be heard intermittently.

I was too lazy to meddle in other people's business and was about to leave.

But suddenly, blood gushed out from the crowd, and the onlookers parted to make way for a figure to slowly emerge from it.

Upon seeing that person, Chen Yao and Tang Yuehua were slightly taken aback.

Chapter 124 Cooperation

The girl who stepped out from the crowd was wearing a silver robe, with her blue-gold hair cascading down to her waist like a waterfall.

Her exquisitely beautiful face exuded an air of elegance and nobility.

Her expressionless face now makes her look like a high and mighty goddess who disregards everything.

It inspires awe and involuntarily evokes a sense of reverence.

However, some people, because of this inexplicable worship, become twisted in their minds and can't help but want to get close to the girl, violate and ravage her, and destroy the aloofness she possesses.

However, those who put this idea into action may not end up well.

The dripping crimson blood from the longsword woven from blue silver grass in the girl's hand was proof of this.

This person was none other than Ah Yin.

Chen Yao was taken aback when he saw Ah Yin. He hadn't expected that Ah Yin, this saintly woman, would have her hands stained with blood so quickly after only a day and a night of being there.

Immediately, a strange smile involuntarily appeared on his lips.

It seems this killing city is quite nurturing; as long as Ah Yin stays here, there will definitely be no shortage of such killings in the future.

I wonder how Gin will react when he leaves the village and looks back on the past, only to find that he has become the person he once hated the most.

Chen Yao couldn't wait to see Ah Yin's expression at that moment. Seeing his enemy, whom he wanted to kill as soon as possible, fall, Chen Yao felt an uncontrollable surge of pleasure.

However, just as Chen Yao was wearing that malicious smile, Ah Yin in front of him seemed to sense something, slowly raised her eyes, and met Chen Yao's gaze.

Seeing this, Chen Yao immediately curled his lip, then turned around with Tang Yuehua, intending to leave.

Now, Ah Yin has teamed up with Liu Erlong. Both of them are inheritors of the gods, possessing great strength and numerous methods.

His teammate and current girlfriend is Tang Yuehua.

Although his martial soul sounds very powerful after its improvement, Chen Yao has not yet truly witnessed it and is not clear about the specifics. Therefore, it is not suitable for him to have a conflict with Ah Yin and Liu Erlong for the time being.

However, Chen Yao took the initiative to back down, but he didn't expect Ah Yin to suddenly accelerate and run in front of the two of them, blocking Chen Yao's way.

"Want to fight?"

Chen Yao raised an eyebrow and spoke, while cautiously glancing around. He didn't believe that Ah Yin would dare to rush up and stop him so rashly on her own.

However, Ah Yin called out.

"Don't bother looking anymore, Miss Erlong isn't around here."

Chen Yao was taken aback upon hearing this, and then asked.

"Then this is you."

"I'm here to cooperate with you."

Ah Yin said it bluntly.

"Cooperation? What's there to cooperate with you for? The best cooperation you can do is to obediently cooperate with me, stick your heads out and let me cut them off."

Upon hearing this, Chen Yao scoffed and turned to leave.

"It's about the Hell Killing Fields."

Seeing that Chen Yao was about to leave, Ah Yin became anxious and quickly said something.

Upon hearing this, Chen Yao paused slightly, his expression shifting as he looked at Ah Yin.

"Tell me."

Seeing Chen Yao stop, Ah Yin breathed a sigh of relief before speaking.

"After we arrived in the Slaughter City yesterday, we learned the rules of the Hell Slaughter Arena: a free-for-all of ten people must kill the other nine to achieve final victory, and then they must win one hundred consecutive matches to leave this place. You should already know these rules, right?"

Chen Yao nodded expressionlessly, showing no remorse whatsoever for failing to report the information he had previously known about.

Seeing this, Ah Yin no longer cared about what had happened before, and continued.

"This hellish killing field is randomly assigned, which means that unless we decide to participate in advance, we may be forced to participate in the competition at any time, which makes it full of randomness."

We don't need to care about the others, but if I or Miss Erlong were to encounter you alone on the field, that would be what you would be most happy to see, right?

But conversely, what if I and the Second Dragon Girl encountered her in the competition?

Ah Yin pointed to Tang Yuehua beside Chen Yao and continued with a light laugh.

"Although I know that if she participates in the competition, you will try to help her win, but that only applies to other people. You should know the strength of me and Miss Erlong. If you encounter us, your methods will probably be useless."

Before Chen Yao could say anything, Tang Yuehua couldn't hold back any longer. She looked at A Yin with anger and shouted.

"When that time really comes, it's hard to say who will win if they're both sound asleep! Yao, let's go!"

Although Tang Yuehua had already learned about Liu Erlong and A Yin's background from Chen Yao, even though her martial soul had undergone a transformation, she still had no confidence whatsoever in the face of the inheritors of the gods.

Even if she were to be defeated by Ah Yin or Liu Erlong, she couldn't let anyone use her to threaten Chen Yao. So she ignored them and grabbed Chen Yao, determined to leave.

Seeing Tang Yuehua's agitation, A Yin knew that Tang Yuehua had misunderstood her meaning. Her expression changed, and she was about to explain when Chen Yao waved her hand to interrupt her. Similarly, Tang Yuehua was also pulled back by Chen Yao.

After both sides quieted down, Chen Yao looked at Ah Yin with great interest and said.

"These things must have been figured out by Liu Erlong, and then he instructed you to come here and say them, right?"

Upon hearing this, Ah Yin nodded subconsciously, but then realized something, her expression changed, and she said angrily.

"What do you mean? Are you saying I'm stupid? Have you been thinking that way about me the whole way here?"

Chen Yao nodded, looking at Ah Yin with pity in his eyes, and said.

"You're only finding out now? I thought you'd noticed a long time ago."

Then, ignoring Ah Yin's almost explosive expression, he continued.

"Actually, it's quite easy to avoid what you're talking about. As long as we know your competition dates, we can choose to participate earlier after your competition. The same applies to your side, so there's absolutely no need for negotiation."

"But since Liu Erlong sent you to find me, I guess she wants more than just this for cooperation. Did she say that if I agree, I should go to your residence to find her so we can discuss other matters?"

Ah Yin was stunned. She subconsciously wanted to nod, but then she realized that if she nodded, wouldn't that confirm her stupidity?

He immediately became conflicted, his face turning pale and then purple, a truly fascinating sight.

After a moment, under Chen Yao's amused expression, she gritted her teeth and nodded.

Chapter 125 Gathering at the Hut

"Alright, I'd like to see what Liu Erlong has to say, but I'm not going to find her, you're going to find me. My place is the prettiest little house at the end of the street."

Without further teasing Ah Yin, Chen Yao nodded, left a message, and then led Tang Yuehua to a small shop in the city that supplied normal ingredients.

After a hearty meal, Chen Yao improvised, found two unlucky guys, and made a huge bucket of Bloody Marys. He paid the restaurant half a month's worth of food and delivery fees in advance before leaving satisfied.

After returning home, Chen Yao did not choose to rest, but instead tinkered around in the house.
