Douluo: The Thousand-Faced Angel in the Dragon King

Chapter 94 Office Chat

Crimson armor covered Zhenhua's entire body, with clusters of flame patterns on it. Each cluster of flames was unique, as if this translucent, jade-like armor contained all the flames in the world.

His helmet concealed his face, even his eyes were protected by a red crystal on the helmet. The flame patterns on his body shimmered with an eerie light; each cluster of flame was actually an incredibly powerful core magic array. Behind him, a pair of folded wings spread open, allowing him to levitate in mid-air. The wings were bat-shaped, each bone shimmering with a golden-red light, and the surface of the wings was as translucent as jade, allowing glimpses of the scenery behind them.

This is Zhenhua's four-word battle armor. When he released the four-word battle armor, his whole body seemed to collapse inward, and the terrifying aura made the entire building seem to tremble.

"Don't move!" Zhenhua shouted, and at the same time, his powerful aura was directed at Chang Gongyan.

This was definitely a premeditated assassination attempt, and the attacker was extremely extraordinary, at least a Super Douluo of level 95 or above. Even with Qian Mo's warning, Zhen Hua couldn't guarantee he could dodge that attack.

All the blacksmiths crouched down in the face of this immense pressure, and no one dared to make a move.

Chang Gongyan spread his arms, shielding Lin Yuhan behind him. Two yellow, two purple, and four black spirit rings rose up and circled around his body, making him an eight-ring spirit douluo.

Even with his eight-ring Soul Douluo cultivation, he was nearly overwhelmed and unable to stand before a four-word Battle Armor Master. He couldn't possibly be without Battle Armor, but he didn't unleash it.

"President Zhenhua!" Chang Gongyan shouted, his eyes extremely serious. This assassination attempt was too coincidental, making it hard not to suspect them.

Zhenhua is the only master craftsman on the continent, the soul of all blacksmiths. Assassinating him would undoubtedly incur the wrath of the masses. Now, the spearhead is aimed directly at the two of them, and some indignant people are already shouting to kill them.

"You're a blacksmith from another continent, aren't you?" Zhenhua's cold voice rang out.

Chang Gongyan's heart sank. He looked directly into Zhenhua's eyes and said in a deep voice, "President Zhenhua has good eyesight, but the assassin is someone else, and has nothing to do with me or my disciple."

"If it's not you, then who is it?" a blacksmith immediately roared angrily.

"It's not us," Lin Yuhan protested, her eyes already glistening with tears.

"Come with me." After thinking for a moment, Zhenhua led Chang Gongyan and his apprentice, as well as Qian Mo and Tang Wulin, back to his office.

"Tell me, how did you get here, and why did you come here to take on this challenge?" Zhenhua asked in a deep voice.

Chang Gongyan gave a wry smile and obediently told Zhenhua everything, explaining that they came from the Star Luo Continent and had come here with the Star Luo Empire delegation, but had been instigated to come and challenge the Forging Masters Association.

After frowning and pondering for a few seconds, Zhenhua said, "Brother Changgong and your disciple, please stay as guests for now. We will investigate the matter thoroughly and also notify your delegation to come and pick them up."

Chang Gongyan nodded. "Okay, I'll follow President Zhenhua's arrangements."

Just then, the door opened, and Makino walked in from outside.

Zhenhua looked at him, "How is it?"

Mu Ye shook his head slightly. "His speed is extremely fast, a rare agility-type Title Douluo, and he should be at the Super Douluo level. He might not be able to win in a head-on fight, but his speed is too fast to run. I chased him for a while, but he still managed to shake me off. Looks like you're in trouble. Being targeted by an assassin at the Super Douluo level, hehe."

Mu Ye crossed his arms and said calmly, "You should thank your little apprentice properly. If he hadn't sensed the evil soul master's aura beforehand, I wouldn't have been able to react to that attack just now. You would most likely have been killed before you could even release your four-word battle armor."

Zhenhua smiled calmly, "It seems some people don't want me to live!"

Tang Wulin was shocked to hear this. He hadn't expected his senior brother Qianmo to have such keen senses, able to detect a Super Douluo-level evil soul master. His senior uncle Zhenhua was truly skilled and daring, brazenly appearing even knowing there was an attack.

"Hmph," Mu Ye snorted coldly, and said solemnly, "In recent years, evil spirit masters have become increasingly active, causing destruction and terrorist attacks everywhere. The entire alliance is now cracking down on them. I didn't expect that they would first attempt to attack A Mo, and now they've extended their reach to your side. With such behavior, it seems that there are probably quite a few powerful figures among the evil spirit masters, otherwise these rats in the gutter wouldn't dare to act so recklessly."

Zhenhua laughed, "Evil Soul Master, good! I've never fought an evil soul master before. Chef, you tell Wulin about your business first, I'll handle this assassination attempt."

Qian Mo chimed in, "I'll also contact the God of War of the War God Temple. It seems we missed a big fish during the last operation in Tian Dou City."

After Tang Wulin left with Mu Ye, Zhen Hua made a call through his soul communication device, then looked at Chang Gongyan and his apprentice, and said calmly, "You two can go now. Someone will contact you later."

Chang Gongyan left as instructed, but before leaving, Lin Yuhan earnestly said to Qian Mo, "Next time we meet, I will definitely be no less than you."

Qian Mo smiled faintly, "I'll be waiting anytime."

After a while, Tang Wulin returned to his office with a helpless expression.

Chang Gongyan and Lin Yuhan were nowhere to be seen; only Zhenhua and Qianmo were discussing forging matters.

"Uncle-Master," Tang Wulin called out respectfully.

The latest novel is first published here!

Zhenhua paused his conversation with Qianmo, smiled slightly, and asked, "How did it go? How did your talk with him go?"

When Zhenhua asked him a question, Tang Wulin did not answer immediately, but instead glanced at Qianmo first.

Qian Mo noticed Tang Wulin's gaze and raised an eyebrow slightly. "Why are you looking for me? Do you think I'm an outsider and won't tell me?"

Tang Wulin, embarrassed by being noticed, scratched his head and said apologetically, "I'm not sure if Uncle Ye will allow me to tell anyone about this."

Qian Mo rolled her eyes. "I've spent far more time with Uncle Mu Ye than you have, and I know his identity and his thoughts perfectly well. He's contacting you because he wants you to join the Body Sect, right?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Wulin nodded. "Hehe, I didn't expect you to know about this, Senior Brother Qianmo."

"Wu Lin, you're a promising talent for cultivating your Qi and blood. Uncle Mu Ye will definitely be eager to recruit you into the Body Sect," Qian Mo said.

Tang Wulin said somewhat awkwardly, "But I'm afraid I can't agree to Uncle Ye's request. He left. He's probably angry."

Zhenhua laughed and said, "It's alright, it's alright. That's just his temper, he's so old but still acts like a child. You don't need to pay attention to him, I'll talk to him later."

Afterwards, Zhenhua gave Qianmo and Tang Wulin some pointers on forging techniques before letting them leave.
