Douluo Continent: Reincarnation of Huo Linfei, Illusory Lin Nebula

Chapter 56 So incredibly clever!

"Please calm your anger, Your Majesty."

Yue Guan smiled bitterly to herself.

Serving a ruler is truly like serving a tiger...

This Bibi Dong is even more difficult to please than Qian Xunji.

Bibi Dong rose to her feet, her robes fluttering as she moved, displaying a graceful and charming demeanor.

The scepter struck the ground with a crisp sound that resonated in the hearts of Yue Guan and the ghost.

Bibi Dong's eyes reflected the figures of Huo Linfei and Miao Tiaojun. She turned her head slightly and said calmly, "Ghostly Charm, Nana and the other two are too slow. Go and bring them back quickly."

"Yes."

"Yue Guan, I'm giving you a task: keep an eye on Miao Tiaojun and Huo Linfei, and make sure they don't leave Wuhun City."

"Understood."

Yue Guan and Gui Mei immediately split up and acted separately.

"Now that you've taken my papal decree, let's see which power still dares to trust you."

A smile appeared in Bibi Dong's eyes.

The next moment, her figure vanished from the spot.

...

"Fatty, do you know what this token is for?" Huo Linfei played with the papal decree, tossing it around in the air.

"Call me Slim Jun!" Slim Jun angrily snatched the papal decree from Huo Linfei's hand and examined it closely: "The six patterns on this should have a special meaning..."

"Nonsense!" Huo Linfei rolled his eyes and said, "Do you need to tell me this? The key is, what do these six patterns mean!"

Miao Tiaojun examined it carefully for a moment, then said with a serious expression, "I don't know!"

Huo Linfei suddenly felt a headache coming on.

"have no idea?"

"You didn't know that, yet you're watching so intently!"

"Hehehe..." Miao Tiaojun chuckled awkwardly, tossed the token to Huo Linfei, and said, "As long as it works, that's fine."

"Let's give it a try." Huo Linfei spotted a soul tool shop nearby and went inside.

Miao Tiaojun guessed Huo Linfei's thoughts and followed closely behind.

"Boss! Boss!"

Huo Linfei looked around the deserted shop, his lips twitching slightly.

No wonder no one comes here; even the owner has disappeared.

"Is this boss sleeping in?" Miao Tiaojun casually picked up a purple jade stone and examined it. "The texture of this gemstone is quite good, and it's full of soul power fluctuations. It looks like a storage soul tool."

He tried it and discovered that the jade contained a cubic meter of storage space.

"Little fatty, that storage soul tool you're holding is worth 100,000 gold soul coins. If I break it, you'll have to pay for it!"

An elderly man with white hair stepped forward and approached Huo Linfei, saying calmly, "Gentlemen, what would you like to buy? Take your pick. All the soul tools here are of excellent quality, not defective products."

"It's just too expensive..." Miao Tiaojun said speechlessly, "You dare to ask for 100,000 gold soul coins for just one cubic meter of storage space!"

"Why don't you just rob it yourself!"

"Hehe..." the old man chuckled lightly, "Robbing is nowhere as lucrative as selling soul tools!"

"The method of making storage soul tools has been lost, and these soul tools were all discovered in ancient ruins."

"Limited quantity, first come, first served."

"I think you're the one trying to raise the price!" Miao Tiaojun sneered and put the gem back in its place.

"What about this one?"

He then picked up a silver-gray sphere made of some unknown material, with strange patterns carved on it.

"Although this thing has fluctuations of soul power, it doesn't look like a soul tool at all..."

"That being said, it will still cost 10,000 gold soul coins." The old man held up one finger and said with a smile, "These things are of historical significance. If they are for those who love to study history, even 100,000 gold soul coins wouldn't be expensive."

"Get lost!" Slim Jun said irritably. "Don't think I'm easy to fool. Do you think I'm an idiot?"

"Boss, how much do you think this token is worth?" Huo Linfei handed the papal decree given to him by Bibi Dong to the old man and said with a smile, "This was just given to me by your Spirit Hall's Pope. He said that with this token, I can get reimbursed for anything I buy."

The old man's pupils constricted, his knees buckled, and he almost knelt down.

Fortunately, Miao Tiaojun was right in front of him.

I temporarily used it as a walking stick.

"Old man, why are you hugging me?"

"Let go of me right now!"

The old man, leaning on the counter, managed to stand still, his eyes filled with solemnity as he looked at Huo Linfei.

"Sir, next time you can just take out the token directly."

"Take whatever catches your eye."

"Is this token that useful?"

Huo Linfei was somewhat surprised.

"Boss, now tell me, how much is this gemstone?" Miao Tiaojun took out the purple jade again, a malicious smile on his face.

"If you like it, just take it." The old man smiled awkwardly.

If we reveal the real price, wouldn't we be ruining our own reputation?

Rather than doing that, I might as well just give it to you!

"What are you talking about!" Miao Tiaojun retorted, "Do you think I, Miao Tiaojun, am the kind of person who buys things and doesn't pay for them?"

"Ah Fei, go!"

Upon hearing this, Huo Linfei kicked Miao Tiaojun over in a huff.

"We're just here to see if this token is useful; we don't need these soul tools."

"Bye now."

Huo Linfei put away the token and dragged Miao Tiaojun out of the shop.

The old man watched the two figures disappear into the distance, wiping the fine beads of cold sweat from his forehead.

"That scared me to death..."

Just then, Yue Guan suddenly appeared in front of the old man, his expression serious.

The old man's heart skipped a beat. Upon seeing Yue Guan's distinctive red robe and the chrysanthemums on it, he immediately understood the identity of the person before him.

"Greetings, Elder."

"What did they just buy?"

"I didn't buy anything, I just looked around and said I wanted to try out the effects of the papal decree."

Yue Guan frowned slightly and cursed under his breath.

"What a country bumpkin!"

"They don't even recognize papal decrees!"

...

"Ah owe-"

Huo Linfei and Miao Tiaojun moved in perfect unison.

He kept sneezing.

"Who's talking badly about me behind my back!"

Huo Linfei and Miao Tiaojun frowned and looked around at the crowd.

Yue Guan watched the two from the shadows, his brows furrowed.

"Why are these two kids acting so strangely..."

"Fatty, do you have a camera? How can we come all the way to Wuhun City without taking some photos to remember the trip?" Huo Linfei suddenly felt like he was on vacation.

"Yes, yes." Miao Tiaojun fumbled around and pulled out a camera.

"Fatty, is that mountain a tourist attraction around here?" Huo Linfei asked, pointing to the mountain behind the Papal Palace.

"What tourist attraction!" Miao Tiaojun curled his lip and said, "You stinky Afei, you really have no taste. Wuhun City has two iconic buildings. The first is the Papal Palace, and the other is the Douluo Palace on the mountainside."

"The Douluo Hall..." Huo Linfei asked in shock, "Are all the people living inside titled Douluo?"

Miao Tiaojun shook his head seriously, "No..."

"Then... what does the Douluo Hall do?" Huo Linfei raised an eyebrow.

"Those inside are all dead Title Douluos!"

"what?"
