Douluo Continent: Starting from Killing Arou with a Single Sword.

"boom--"

Shi Yu spared no effort in using his soul power, wielding the Demon-Slaying Sword with great power. He directly cut down a soul beast that was over a thousand years old and seriously injured it. Even a soul beast that was ten thousand years old was inevitably injured.

"Sizzle—" Ma Hongjun's defense made a slight mistake, and a ten-thousand-year-old Azure Sea Spider left a deep, bone-revealing wound on his body. In the blink of an eye, he was surrounded by several soul beasts.

Was he really going to die like this? Unwilling to accept defeat, Ma Hongjun unleashed a final, furious attack. The raging flames engulfed the soul beast before him, but only managed to tickle it. Seeing the Ten-Thousand-Year Azure Sea Spider already displaying a victor's smile, Ma Hongjun instinctively closed his eyes—he would rather die with his eyes closed.

"Clang—" That was the sound of a sword rubbing against the hide of a soul beast!

Ning Mumu used her sword to send the Ten Thousand Year Azure Sea Spider flying. Its several-meter-long body crashed into a tree, making a sound that made one's teeth ache.

That sounds painful. Thank goodness it wasn't me. Ma Hongjun thought to himself, at least I'm a few seconds longer than expected, what a win!

"Why are you closing your eyes?" Ning Mumu shouted at Ma Hongjun while fighting the soul beast. "If you're injured, get to the back! Don't just wait here to die!"

Ning Mumu's tone was cold, but Ma Hongjun could hear the concern in her voice. "Sister Mumu is so kind," he thought, and quickly shrank back.

Whew— Ning Mumu breathed a sigh of relief. She didn't know where these soul beasts came from; they just seemed bothersome. And—

Ning Mumu casually picked up an injured companion, her eyes darkening: These soul beasts were just playing with them like monkeys, they weren't using their full strength at all!

That's true. If these ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts really went berserk, the people present probably wouldn't last ten minutes. But now, the soul beasts are coming forward one by one, even replacing one when it gets injured, it's no different from practicing!

Are they training? Ning Mumu couldn't help but wonder, but these soul beasts in front of her were only of average intelligence, what did they know about training!

"Roar—"

The battle lasted three minutes, and everyone used all their skills to barely stay alive. The soul beasts, however, grew stronger with each battle, especially after smelling the blood on everyone; the bloodlust in their eyes was impossible to hide.

Oh no! Ning Mumu kicked off the unknown soul beast and quickly arrived in front of Ning Luoluo. Ning Luoluo's white dress was already stained red with blood, dripping like a piece of clothing that hadn't been wrung out.

Ning Luoluo was not only protecting herself, but also ensuring Dai Mubai's safety. Perhaps out of kindness, or perhaps because she still had the capacity, she chose to save Dai Mubai multiple times.

However, she was accidentally injured herself. The Thousand-Year-Old Human-Faced Demon Spider directly scratched her arm, leaving a wound that was thirty centimeters long.

"Poisonous!" Ning Mumu arrived just in time and quickly took out an antidote pill, giving it to Ning Luoluo. "Quickly, force out the toxins!"

Ning Luoluo took the medicine and stared intently at her sister. She still had the strength to fight, so why wouldn't her sister let her fight? Ning Luoluo was full of questions, but she still obeyed and dragged her tired body to the back to heal her wounds.

"Sister Mu Mu, maybe we can cooperate?" Shi Yu dismissed his accomplice and approached Ning Mu Mu with a grin. He had a premonition of danger; this time, they might not be able to escape the Star Dou Great Forest. If he lost this opportunity to cooperate with Sister Mu Mu, there might not be another chance.

"Oh?" Ning Mumu asked, puzzled. "How do you plan to cooperate?"

"We both possess sword-wielding spirits," Shi Yu said, stopping short of revealing the meaning. Ning Mumu smiled knowingly—it wasn't a spirit fusion technique, but rather a simple collaboration. She understood what Shi Yu meant.

Shi Yu smiled innocently, his eyes gleaming with an undeniable light. However, the "Shi Yu" within him was roaring incessantly!

"Shi Yu, my dear Shi Yu, I beg you, don't be reckless!" Dark Shi Yu cried out. "If you die, I die too. Just let me out this time. I'm strong enough to protect myself!"

"Big brother, my dear Shi Yu, I promise I won't mess with you anymore. You can like whoever you want! Please don't die!!!"

No matter how loudly the person in his mind screamed, Shi Yu remained unmoved. He would not be corrupted by darkness; even in death, he would carry the light with him.

"Then come at me all at once, Shi Yu," Ning Mumu struck first, cleanly and swiftly slicing away a soul beast. "I want to see your true strength!"

"Alright." Shi Yu's eyes sharpened, and the Demon-Slaying Sword appeared in response. Its name, Demon-Slaying, implies purity and cleanliness. Let this Demon-Slaying Sword pave a path for Sister Mu Mu!

I finally had some free time during these past few days of exams and managed to write a chapter. Thanks for your support!

A flawless version after careful inspection!

The next few chapters will probably include Mu Mu unleashing her ultimate attack.
