Douluo Continent: Protector Qian Renxue, Martial Soul: Dark Demon Dragon

Chapter 10 We'll meet again someday

Lin Xiao stood with his hands behind his back, his expression indifferent, completely unconcerned about the other party's threat. A cool breeze gently caressed him, lightly touching the strands of long, black hair that fell over his shoulders.

"Oh? Are you threatening me?" Lin Xiao's tone was extremely calm, yet the chill contained within it was so intense that it seemed to freeze the surrounding air instantly.

"Senior, that's not what I meant. I just hope you can reconsider. The person you rescued is a prisoner from our Star Luo Empire. I hope you can understand."

The leader of the Soul Sect suddenly felt a chill coming from all around, a chill that seemed to possess boundless power, capable of freezing his body instantly.

The leader of the Soul Sect spoke with utmost sincerity and respect. He hoped that the senior in front of him would understand his meaning and leave on his own. Otherwise, if the senior insisted on getting involved and refused to leave, there would be nothing he could do.

If it were a Soul King or Soul Emperor who came to Zhu Zhuqing's rescue, they might be able to use their numerical advantage in Soul Masters to create a situation of overwhelming force and thus fight back.

However, the young Soul Master in front of them was at least at the Soul Douluo level. Even if the number of Soul Masters on their side were several times that, they would still be no match for him.

Having explained things to this extent, if the young soul masters still insisted on interfering, they could only leave helplessly, watching Zhu Zhuqing escape from their grasp before returning to report.

It's easy to imagine that these Soul Masters, having failed to capture Zhu Zhuqing and return to report, will undoubtedly face severe punishment from Miss Zhu Zhuyun.

"What if I say no?" Lin Xiao's tone was extremely cold, his dragon eyes staring coldly at the leader of the Soul Sect standing on the ground.

His expression was calm and still, without the slightest fluctuation, as if the things right in front of him could not cause even the slightest ripple or disturbance in the depths of his heart.

"Senior, please consider this carefully and hand over the criminals of our Star Luo Empire to us!" The leader of the Soul Sect pleaded earnestly.

Saying he was a prisoner was just an excuse he made up on the spot; it was best not to reveal Zhu Zhuqing's true identity.

"Shut up!" Lin Xiao said coldly, his face dark.

The black dragon, keenly sensing Lin Xiao's emotional shift, suddenly opened its mouth wide, and a loud dragon roar resounded throughout the vast sky, echoing continuously among the towering mountains.

The dragon's roar almost formed layers of ripples, spreading slowly toward the leading Soul Sect.

"Ah!" The leader of the Soul Masters cried out in agony, the sounds of which rose and fell in a truly horrific manner.

The dragon's roar surged through his body with unstoppable force, tearing his black clothes apart instantly. Blood flowed from his seven orifices, and he stared at the youth in terror before collapsing backward, completely unconscious.

At this point, all the Soul Sect members who had been pursuing Zhu Zhuqing were unconscious and completely incapacitated.

Zhu Zhuqing exerted all her strength to support her weakened body and stood on the ground, staring in astonishment at what was happening before her eyes, hardly believing her own eyes.

Those soul masters who had relentlessly pursued her and wanted to kill her were now all lying on the ground.

Zhu Zhuqing stared blankly, frozen in place, at the tall and steady young man standing on the dragon's head. Her heart was filled with a myriad of emotions, and her thoughts surged violently like a tide.

The young man, dressed in black, exuded a mysterious and majestic aura. On his clothes, dragon patterns embroidered with gold thread meandered and shimmered faintly against the backdrop of the deep night.

Her long, jet-black hair, flowing like a waterfall, cascaded freely over her shoulders. A cool breeze gently caressed her, lifting strands of hair. Her exquisite beauty resembled a treasure meticulously crafted by a master artisan.

His sword-like eyebrows swept across his temples, his starry eyes shone like dazzling, cold stars, his nose was straight, his lips were slightly pursed, and his hands were behind his back. The nobility and aloofness he exuded seemed to be innate and naturally present.

Lin Xiao turned his head slightly to the side, his gaze calm and indifferent as he looked at Zhu Zhuqing standing on the ground.

When Zhu Zhuqing saw Lin Xiao's face, her gaze froze for a moment, and she stared blankly at him.

When they are young, every girl has a fantasy, imagining that one day, if she is in danger, a strong and handsome boy will fall from the sky and save her life.

She was no exception; when she was young, she was often subjected to suppression by her older sister, and she also had such fantasies.

Just as she was about to say something, the enormous black dragon suddenly took flight, carrying the young man into the vast night sky. Its powerful impact instantly stirred up layers upon layers of dust that swirled in the air.

"I am deeply grateful for your generous rescue, senior. I am willing to serve you like a slave and dedicate my life to serving you wholeheartedly. No matter what difficulties or life-or-death crises lie ahead, even if it means going through fire and water and being shattered to pieces, I will never back down or hesitate!"

"However, Zhu Zhuqing still has a very important matter to complete. By the time Zhu Zhuqing finishes it, she will not know where the senior is, what his name is, or where Zhu Zhuqing should go to find him."

Gazing at the black dragon that had not yet flown far, Zhu Zhuqing mustered all her strength and shouted at the top of her lungs.

After saying that, Zhu Zhuqing watched the black dragon leave, but received no response from her senior for a long time. She stood there blankly, her heart filled with disappointment.

"My name is Lin Xiao. We will meet again in the future."

Lin Xiao's clear, cold voice lingered in Zhu Zhuqing's ears like the melodious tolling of a bell, its echoes lingering and never ceasing.

Gazing at the dazzling night sky, Zhu Zhuqing watched as Lin Xiao's figure vanished completely into the endless darkness. Lost in thought, she murmured, "Your name is Lin Xiao?!"

This experience was truly unforgettable and deeply etched in her memory.

If Lin Xiao hadn't intervened at the crucial moment, she would probably be dead at the hands of the Soul Sect by now.

She was filled with gratitude, grateful that she had been lucky enough to encounter Lin Xiao in this desolate wilderness and mountains, and had not lost her life at the hands of the Soul Sect.
