Douluo: Legend of the Dragon King - The Voice of the Purple Emperor

Chapter 38 Memories of the Past

"Ice Emperor Scorpion, you're amazing! Even in death you're still following me."

"Go away! Go away! Who cares if someone dies? If you really die, I'll be the first to run away."

"So what's going on now?" Gu You looked around at the endless sea of ​​fire.

"I've made myself clear, but that woman isn't dead yet! The only thing we know is that your Annihilation Beam disintegrated the energy from the missile's impact on Yuezi. That would only cause it to explode outwards and shrink internally, making it less effective than a Level 4 Soul Guidance Cannon. And you were holding her without sustaining any injuries." Ice Emperor Scorpion Explains.

"You can play like this?" Gu You's heart tightened; it was as if he had discovered a new continent.

"Then where did she go?" Gu You asked solemnly. If Yue Zi hadn't died, why didn't she kill him while he was in a deep sleep?

"I don't know. I just regained your vision and woke you up with ice element."

"I must say, you scorpion, although you're a bit eccentric, you're still quite clever. We can't just keep calling you Ice Emperor Crab, can we? Let's give you a name that's easy to pronounce... Iron Silly, how about that?"

?

Before Tie Hanhan could refute, Gu You shut down the mental communication, saying, "Resistance is ineffective." He then smiled calmly.

"You're awake?" Yuezi sat on a long spike made of black matter, one hand supporting her legs and the other hand holding the black spike, her eyes looking up at the sea of ​​fire and the sky.

Ancient traveler instantly became alert.

"Hehe! I'm not that scary, am I? Let me tell you a story, do you want to hear it?" Yuezi looked at Guyou.

"Go ahead and tell me." Gu You squatted down. Yue Zi was clearly holding back, regardless of any of their fights. After all, the strength of a Limit Douluo was truly terrifying; a city could be reduced to ashes in the blink of an eye. Yue Zi didn't want to kill him. As for why? Perhaps it lies within this story.

"I was born into a very wealthy family. There are three sisters in my family. When I was six years old, I awakened my martial soul. My older sister and younger sister are both very talented, and their martial souls are the rare Heavenly Moon Silk, the family's inherited martial soul. But me... is laughable. My martial soul is Vine! Soul power level three." As she said this, Yuezi clenched her fist, and terrifying soul power surged around her.

"That day!! The whole clan knew that I was my father's bastard! You will never understand how I felt, it was unbelievable, unbelievable! I suffered all kinds of cold looks, even an unknown butler could lecture me, this 'Miss' hahaha! Tell me? What could I do?" Yuezi asked Guyou.

Gu You trembled, unsure how to respond.

"I bet you don't know either. After all, you're so great, with an outstanding martial soul. I imagine your life will be very exciting after you awaken your martial soul..." Yuezi lowered her head. Gu You didn't refute her. After hearing this story, he had no right to mock others.

"I cultivated diligently, and one day I reached level ten, enough to fuse my first spirit ring. I found my father and wanted to ask him for my first spirit ring, but do you know what he said? He said my talent wasn't good enough, not as good as my two older sisters, and that I should learn more about knowledge and household chores, and maybe I could go into politics in the future. Of course, I know he meant well, but I just want to ask!! If that's the case, why did he give birth to me in the first place, even though he didn't know me? Since he knew I was originally like that, why did he raise me? Was it just out of guilt? I want to become a spirit master, to have power, to investigate everything about me, whether they oppose me or not..."

"I stole a sum of money from my father and went to the Spirit Pagoda to randomly draw a soul spirit, but fate played a cruel joke on me—a defective one! A defective soul spirit!! That day, weak and hungry, I looked at the defective vine soul spirit in my hand and resolutely chose to absorb it. I don't know how much courage I had at that time; I only know that my resentment will never dissipate! My martial soul mutated and evolved into the Bloodthirsty Heavenly Vine. After that, by constantly killing stray cats and dogs on the roadside, my soul power broke through level 20 in just two years. At that time, I was still kind and didn't think about killing people, but that day I changed..."

"They were a group of bad people. They wanted to kidnap me and take me to a dark side of this world that didn't belong to me. But I was lucky. They were just ordinary people. I killed them and my soul power reached level 23. I tasted the thrill of killing for the first time, and I couldn't extricate myself from it. At that time, I had no money, so I planned to go home and show off my achievements over the past few years to prove that I was not a waste and that I could become a Soul Master! Looking back on this, I was too naive." Yuezi calmly looked at her hands.

"My family... actually called me an evil soul master! They wanted to take me to the federal court and torture me for eternity. They called me a little bitch, and even my father remained silent. How I longed for his approval, but! He didn't!! During the days I was under their control, I finally found a sliver of opportunity. I used my martial soul to spread vines through the crack in the door. The movements were small and stealthy, without making a sound. I killed the butler in charge of the door, used the vines as arms to open the door, and began a relentless slaughter. At that time, the family's strongmen were not present; the strongest were only some Soul Masters and Soul Venerables. I killed them all with a first-ring victory, leaving them without a trace. Their corpses became my nourishment!!" Yuezi's face began to contort, indicating that this memory was indeed very stimulating to her.

"At that time, my soul power instantly reached the peak of Soul Master. I took some of my family's property and went to find the mystery of my mother. I still haven't found it. When I became a Title Douluo, I first sensed the power of a god. That power was very mysterious and even more addictive than killing." After Yuezi finished speaking, she looked at Gu You.

"You and I are both chosen by God. I have never had a single intention to harm others, but this world has turned me into this. There are many people like me, including those evil spirit masters outside. They are all evil, but do you dare say they were evil from the beginning? Join me, and we will become gods and enjoy eternal life together, destroying all the injustices in this world and searching for the secret of the regret between us."

To be honest, Gu You was somewhat shaken, but he still shook his head. "You're right, and I agree, but... what about the people you killed? I can understand killing bad people, but what about the ordinary people? Have they ever done anything bad? Even if they have, it's not up to you to judge them. You and I are both right, but our mindsets are wrong. You experienced evil in your childhood, while I experienced brilliance. I've seen too many kind people, and I've also seen those selfish and petty people. Now that I've said this, I also want to ask you, will you turn back? As long as I'm here, there will definitely be a chance. I know the world's number one healing Douluo, Holy Spirit Ya Li, and I believe her Angelic Martial Soul can purify your Martial Soul. That way, you won't be an evil Soul Master. As long as you do enough good deeds, people won't blame you. After all, good people who do bad things are infamous for eternity, while bad people who do good things are celebrated for eternity."

"Haha! To be honest, chatting with you is really nice, but... this still needs a fight to settle!!"
