Douluo: The Throne of Ice

Chapter 46 Descendants of the Spirit Hall

The following afternoon, the weather was slightly muggy. The familiar carriage drove out of the imperial city. Besides Shu Yan and Xu Jiujiu, the only other person in the carriage was Xue Di, who had disguised herself using her mental power. As for Nebula Douluo...

Her bodyguard career may be taking a short break, something that has never happened in the past decade or so.

Shu Yan lifted the curtains and looked at the ridiculously large Xingluo Square in front of the imperial city. He couldn't help but sigh. Then, his gaze fell on a seven-story hotel not far to the east of the square.

This luxurious hotel, named Star Emperor, is owned by the royal family and usually receives envoys from various countries and dignitaries of high status. Therefore, it is naturally built to be extremely magnificent, and can even be described as a true "heaven on earth". In this hotel, you can get almost anything that can be found on the market if you want.

For example, the Star Emperor Hotel can satisfy almost all your desires, such as beautiful women and beast girls. Hundreds of years ago, a genius with a Heavenly Soul couldn't resist the temptation during the Soul Master Competition and was completely drained in one night. Decades later, several powerful individuals with the same martial soul as that genius inexplicably appeared in the Star Luo Empire. All I can say is that boys should take good care of themselves when they go out!

Putting aside the digression, the carriage traveled all the way to the front of the Star Emperor Hotel. The maids at the hotel entrance were startled when they saw the totem engraved on the carriage. The last one hurriedly ran into the hotel to report, while the others bowed down in unison, not daring to look at the carriage again.

Shu Yan helped Xu Jiujiu down from the carriage, while Xue Di quietly followed behind. Her gaze swept around the surroundings before settling on the grand hotel in front of them.

The feedback from the mental scan of the entire hotel made Xue Di frown slightly, but she didn't say anything more.

As a super ferocious beast comparable to the limits of humanity, Xue Di's mental power is naturally incredibly strong. Even if she doesn't deliberately conceal her mental power, there are very few people in the entire Star Luo City who can sense this fluctuation. This is Xue Di's confidence.

The three of them walked together into the hotel lobby. The Star Luo Empire's soul guidance technology has developed rapidly in recent years. Although it cannot compare with the Sun Moon Empire, it is still the most developed among the original Douluo Three Kingdoms. The Star Emperor Hotel in front of them uses a lot of advanced soul guidance technology, and the huge soul guidance screen hanging high up is the best proof.

A series of crisp footsteps sounded in the distance, and a man and two women quickly ran out of the hotel. They stopped about three meters away from the three men, bowed in unison, and then the middle-aged man in the lead said:

"Greetings, Your Highness. I am Chen Yin, the general manager of the Star Emperor Hotel. These two behind me are my assistants. We were unaware of Your Highness's arrival and thus failed to greet you properly. We hope Your Highness will forgive us..."

After a long while, he looked up and made a gesture of support, glanced at the three of them, and then said in a low voice:

"It's alright. I had important business to attend to this time, so I didn't inform you in advance. It's not your fault."

"I won't waste any more time on small talk. Take us to meet those guests from the south. I think they should still be at the hotel right now."

Chen Yin nodded repeatedly, then quickly stepped aside with the two people behind him, and respectfully said:

"Your Highness, you've come at the perfect time. Those guests have just returned from outside and are resting on the fourth floor of the hotel. Let me show you the way..."

"No need, we'll go ourselves. Also, from now on, no one is allowed to go up to the third floor or above of the Star Emperor Hotel. If anyone causes trouble, then let him have a face-to-face talk with me later."

Xu Jiujiu interrupted Chen Yin directly, and then gave instructions as he walked away. Chen Yin trembled, and then watched the three figures quickly walk past him before hurriedly calling out to the hotel staff. The entire lobby then fell into chaos.

……

The three ignored the chaos behind them. After pressing the elevator button, a melodious tune began to play, the surroundings swayed slightly, and then the elevator began to ascend.

After a long while, she slowly released her arms from Shu Yan's arm, and then said softly:

"Ayan, I still have to remind you again. As far as I know, these remnants of the Spirit Hall are very united, and they share the same core beliefs. You probably won't achieve your goals with just words. In other words, you'll need strength to conquer them... Also, some of them have very bad tempers. If any conflicts arise later, I hope you can stay calm..."

Shu Yan shrugged, chuckled softly, and then said, word by word:

I will try my best.

Xue Di glanced at the two of them with some curiosity, but ultimately did not speak.

She was speechless for a long time. Thinking about everything that might happen next, she helplessly rubbed her forehead, wondering if she should find a healing-type soul master in advance. Of course, this wasn't for Shu Yan, but for the descendants of the Spirit Hall on the fourth floor...

After all, anyone with a brain can probably figure out how terrifying the combat power of a five-ring Soul King with an ultimate attribute super martial soul is. Not to mention, Shu Yan's five soul rings are all uniform ten-thousand-year soul rings, and the power of his soul skills far exceeds that of an ordinary five-ring Soul King. He is simply not someone that a Soul Master of the same level can withstand.

……

As the elevator doors slowly opened, the three of them glanced at the luxuriously carpeted corridor outside, and then, led by Shu Yan, they entered the corridor one after another.

As the elevator doors slowly closed, Shu Yan seemed to catch a faint, strange fragrance in the air. Looking around the corridor, he noticed that the entire fourth floor was divided into several rooms, with a large hall in the center. The three of them walked a few steps on the expensive carpet and arrived at a double golden door. As Shu Yan's hand touched the golden door, a strange blue wave suddenly rippled out from the hall, and a melodious cry faintly rang in their ears. Blue feathers slowly fell, creating a desolate atmosphere.

"A spiritual skill, huh...?"

Shu Yan murmured to himself. His keen senses detected a subtle mental fluctuation. At the same time, his interest intensified. A soul master who could use such a mental soul skill must also possess a martial soul with mental attributes or a soul bone with mental attributes. The former is extremely rare on the entire continent. If the situation today was the former, then Shu Yan would be truly surprised and delighted.

Behind him, under the protection of the Snow Emperor, Xu Jiujiu was unaffected. As the door was slowly pushed open, a beam of golden light shone out from the crack. Although his vision was obstructed, Shu Yan was still able to see the general situation in the hall at the first moment. However, his pupils couldn't help but shrink slightly afterward...
