Douluo Continent: The Storytelling Immortal King, Shocking the Entire Continent

A man dressed in a pure white robe, with an elegant and approachable demeanor, walked in slowly with Chen Xin, whose hair and beard were both white.

As soon as he entered, Ning Fengzhi's gaze subtly swept over Su Chen.

The more he looked, the deeper the shock became in his heart.

Because in his perception, the young man in front of him still seemed like an ordinary person without any soul power.

Yet this ordinary person exuded an aura of transcendence that even the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School couldn't fathom.

The feeling was as if the other person did not belong to this world at all, but was a banished immortal from the heavens, looking down on the ants of the mortal world.

"Sect Leader Ning, Sword Douluo."

Su Chen sat in the armchair, showing no intention of getting up, and casually pointed to the chair next to him: "Sit down."

Faced with Su Chen's somewhat arrogant attitude, Chen Xin would have already slashed at any other commoner with his sword.

But at this moment, the level 96 peak Douluo only frowned slightly and did not make a move. Instead, he obediently sat down behind Ning Fengzhi.

"Mr. Su, at such a young age, possesses such unfathomable strength and profound knowledge. It has truly broadened my horizons."

After Ning Fengzhi sat down, he didn't beat around the bush and went straight to the point, his face bearing his signature gentle smile:

"To be honest, I have come here today because I admire your talent."

"Mr. Su's strength is nothing short of a miracle. It would be a waste to keep him telling stories in this small inn."

At this point, Ning Fengzhi directly took out a card that shimmered with black and gold light from his soul tool and placed it on the table.

"There are five million gold soul coins in this card."

"As long as Mr. Su is willing to join my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and serve as an honorary elder, not only will this five million belong entirely to you, but you will also have free access to all the cultivation resources and rare treasures of my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School in the future."

"Furthermore, you are not subject to any restrictions within the sect, and your status is equal to that of the two sect-protecting Douluos."

"What are your thoughts, sir?"

Ning Fengzhi's conditions are undeniably generous.

If this were outside, even an ordinary Soul Douluo would probably be so excited upon hearing such conditions that he would immediately prostrate himself in worship.

However, Su Chen didn't even glance at the black gold card.

He simply picked up his teacup, gently blew on the tea leaves on the surface, took a small sip, and then slowly spoke:

"I appreciate Sect Leader Ning's kindness."

"But the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is not what I truly desire."

After speaking, Su Chen gently put down his teacup and said calmly:

"Of course, this is not to belittle the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, but rather that my ambitions lie elsewhere."

Upon hearing this, Ning Fengzhi's face stiffened abruptly, clearly showing disbelief.

Sword Douluo Chen Xin, who had been sitting to the side, finally couldn't hold back any longer.

He had dedicated his life to sword cultivation and his personality was inherently fierce and fiery. Although he was shocked by Su Chen's power, his pride as a Title Douluo would never allow anyone to belittle the sect he had sworn to protect with his life!

"Young man, being strong doesn't mean you're invincible!"

As he spoke, Chen Xin suddenly stood up, his eyes flashing like lightning.

"The perfect world you speak of is indeed vast, but it's ultimately just a story you tell!"

"In the Douluo Continent, Martial Soul and Soul Power are the true paths to heaven!"

"I awakened the Seven Kill Sword at the age of six, and after more than seventy years of arduous training, I have finally reached the pinnacle of swordsmanship!"

"Without using your soul power, do you think you can withstand my sword strike that shatters the void with just brute force?!"

Faced with Chen Xin's aggressive demeanor, Ning Fengzhi wanted to speak up to stop him, but after hesitating for a moment, he ultimately chose to remain silent.

He also wanted to see what kind of confidence this mysterious Mr. Su had when facing the true pinnacle of power on the mainland.

However, under the overwhelming pressure of Chen Xin's sword energy, Su Chen didn't even lift his eyelids.

He simply stared quietly at a dried tea leaf that had somehow drifted down onto the table.

"peak?"

"Is this what Sword Douluo calls the pinnacle of swordsmanship?"

After speaking, Su Chen slightly raised his hand, his fair fingertips gently pinching the dried tea leaf.

Do you know what a true sword is?

Hearing this, Chen Xin, who was still confused about Su Chen's intentions, immediately frowned and said coldly, "The sword is the king of all weapons, a weapon of slaughter!"

"My Seven Kill Sword is the most powerful offensive weapon in the world!"

"wrong."

However, in response to Sword Douluo's answer, Su Chen shook his head with an old-fashioned look.

"In the face of true swordsmanship, the so-called martial spirit and the so-called weapon are nothing but shackles that bind your vision."

"Just watch and see."

As soon as he finished speaking, Su Chen's originally calm and composed demeanor suddenly changed!

In an instant, an indescribable, terrifying sword intent, seemingly from the very beginning of creation, surged forth from his frail body!

Su Chen held the dried tea leaf between two fingers and casually waved it in Chen Xin's direction.

"A single grain of dust can fill the sea."

"A single blade of grass can cleave the sun, moon, and stars!"

"Whoosh!"

The moment Su Chen swung the withered leaf from his hand, Chen Xin felt as if he had attained enlightenment.

The dried tea leaf disappeared from his sight.

Instead, a mysterious sword grass that reaches to the heavens and the earth, with nine leaves, has taken its place!

The sword grass swayed gently in the wind, and one of its leaves transformed into an unparalleled sword light that traversed the heavens and earth, slicing through the countless stars before slashing towards him, growing larger and larger in his pupils.

"What...what kind of sword intent is this?!"

Chen Xin instinctively wanted to summon the Seven Kill Sword to defend himself, but was horrified to find that his martial spirit was completely unresponsive.

"Tick-tock".

A bead of cold sweat slid down Chenxin's forehead and landed on the floor.

When Chen Xin regained his senses, he was horrified to find that the tea leaf was quietly floating in front of his brow, less than half an inch away from his skin.

If this tea leaf were to be moved even a fraction further, this Sword Douluo, who was renowned throughout the continent, would instantly perish!

"Using a wooden stick as a sword is childish play."

Su Chen slowly withdrew his hand, and the tea leaf, having lost its support, drifted to the ground.

"Everything can be a sword; every blade of grass and every tree can cleave the stars."

"This is the way of the universe."

"Do you understand?"

Su Chen's voice wasn't loud, but every word was like thunder.

"Every blade of grass and every tree can cleave stars..."

Chen Xin stood there blankly, muttering the same sentence over and over again.

Suddenly, as if he had realized something, Chen Xin's soul power bottleneck, which had been stagnant for several years, cracked with a crisp sound in just a few breaths.

Not only that, the sword energy on Chen Xin's body instantly receded, no longer revealing any sharpness.

But as he stood there, he seemed to have merged with the surrounding world, returning to his true self!

Level 97!

With just a word of guidance from Su Chen and a demonstration with a withered leaf, Chen Xin had an instant enlightenment and directly broke through the most difficult barrier to overcome for a peak Douluo!

"Uncle Jian! You...you've broken through?!" Ning Fengzhi, who was standing to the side, was also stunned as he sensed the change in Chen Xin's aura.

However, Chen Xin ignored Ning Fengzhi's shock.

This peerless swordsman, who was proud and unyielding throughout his life, actually clasped his hands together and gave a deep bow to Su Chen, who was sitting in the chair!

"The teacher's guidance and instruction are like a second birth!"

"Having cultivated the sword for many years, only today do I truly understand the vastness of the sword path!"

"I apologize for my previous offenses, sir!"

Seeing Chen Xin's attitude had completely changed, Su Chen waved his hand dismissively, not paying much attention.

"It's alright."

"Go on, you have a long way to go."

Upon hearing this, Chen Xin nodded, then pulled Ning Fengzhi, who was still in a state of extreme shock, and respectfully left the room without even taking the black gold card, closing the door behind him.

……

With the departure of the two from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, the room returned to calm once more.

Su Chen picked up the teapot, preparing to pour himself another cup of tea.

But just as the tea was poured, footsteps sounded again outside the door.

However, this time, the footsteps sounded more noble and composed than Ning Fengzhi's.

"Crown Prince Xue Qinghe of the Heaven Dou Empire requests an audience with Mr. Su."

Upon hearing that gentle and refined voice, Su Chen paused slightly while pouring tea.

"This Heavenly Dou City is getting more and more interesting."

"Please come in."

After the door was pushed open, Xue Qinghe, dressed in fine clothes and with a gentle and refined demeanor, quickly walked in.

He came alone, without any attendants.

"Mr. Su, please forgive my intrusion."

Xue Qinghe walked to the table, cupped his hands slightly, and exuded royal demeanor in every gesture, leaving no room for criticism.

"Your Highness is too kind."

As he spoke, Su Chen casually pointed to the chair opposite him: "Sit down."

Xue Qinghe didn't stand on ceremony and sat down without hesitation.

Looking at the handsome young man before her, whose temperament was like that of an immortal, she recalled the scene in the main hall earlier that day when he had berated Yu Xiaogang and lifted a heavy cauldron with one hand, and a strange feeling welled up in her heart.

"I witnessed Mr. Su's brilliance in the lobby today, and he was truly astonished."

Xue Qinghe wore an impeccable smile, his tone sincere:

"Qinghe has come here for no other reason than to make friends with you, sir."

"If you do not despise me, the gates of my Eastern Palace will always be open to you."

"Within the Heavenly Dou Empire, if you have any requests, sir, Qinghe will do his utmost."

These words were extremely well-spoken, lacking the vulgarity of Ning Fengzhi's approach of using money to bribe people, while also giving Su Chen ample face, fully demonstrating the eagerness of a wise prince to seek out talented individuals.

Anyone would be flattered and overwhelmed by such humility and deference from the crown prince.

However, Su Chen simply pushed the cup of tea he had poured gently towards Xue Qinghe.

"Make friends?"

As he spoke, Su Chen raised his head and stared intently into Xue Qinghe's eyes.

Being stared at like that, Xue Qinghe's heart skipped a beat, and he had a sudden feeling that he had been seen through.

"gentlemen…"

"But did Qinghe say something wrong?" Immediately, Xue Qinghe suppressed the strange feeling in his heart and asked with a forced smile.

"You're right."

Su Chen withdrew his gaze and tapped his fingers lightly on the table twice, producing a rhythmic tapping sound.

But then he looked at Xue Qinghe with a mocking expression and asked lazily:

"But Su didn't know that."

"Should I address you as His Highness the Crown Prince of the Heavenly Dou Empire?"

Su Chen leaned forward slightly, staring at Xue Qinghe's gradually contracting pupils, and said, word by word:

"Should I still address you as..."

"Where is Qian Renxue, the young master of the Spirit Hall?"

When those words were casually uttered by Su Chen, the atmosphere in the room instantly plummeted to freezing point.

Xue Qinghe's hand holding the teacup stiffened slightly for a moment, but she quickly concealed it.

Her smile remained unchanged, even carrying a perfectly balanced hint of confusion and amusement. She shook her head and said:

"Mr. Su is quite the joker."

"What Martial Spirit Hall Young Master, what Qian Renxue, Qinghe really doesn't understand what you're saying."

"Qinghe is a prince of the Heavenly Dou Empire, the future crown prince. If your words get out, it could ignite a major war between the two powers."

Years of infiltration have made Qian Renxue's disguise deeply ingrained.

Even though her heart was in turmoil, she could still remain perfectly composed until they completely broke off all pretense of civility.

She was even betting that Su Chen was just testing her.

After all, the disguised soul bone bestowed by that angelic divine armor was a true divine relic. Let alone a storyteller in an inn, even her grandfather, Qian Daoliu, a peerless Douluo of level ninety-nine, could never see through it at a glance!

However, faced with Qian Renxue's flawless performance, Su Chen didn't even lift his eyelids.

He simply leaned back lazily in the armchair, his fingers lightly tracing the rim of the rough porcelain teacup, his tone as calm as if he were chatting casually:

"When you were nine years old, you took the place of the real Xue Qinghe and have been infiltrating the Tiandou Empire ever since."

"Possesses the divine-level martial soul, the Six-Winged Angel, and innate full soul power at level twenty."

"Your grandfather is Qian Daoliu, the Grand Elder of the Spirit Hall, and your mother is the current Pope, Bibi Dong."

At this point, Su Chen slightly raised his head and looked at Xue Qinghe opposite him again:

"Am I right?"

Xue Qinghe didn't answer, but instead crushed the fine white jade teacup in his hand.

The scalding tea dripped through her fingers, but she was completely unaware.

At this moment, this peerless genius who had been lurking in the Heavenly Dou Empire for many years and who boasted that he could manipulate everyone in the world was finally unable to keep up the act any longer.

She frowned, her expression turning hostile as she fixed her gaze on Su Chen, determined to eliminate him completely.

Moreover, three pairs of holy, luminous wings were faintly fluttering behind her.

"Who exactly are you?!"

At this moment, Qian Renxue could no longer maintain her original gentle and refined manners; her voice even trembled slightly.

The feeling of having all her cards laid bare, even her deepest secrets laid bare, instilled in her an unprecedented fear.

kill him!

He must be killed!

Otherwise, the Spirit Hall's years of planning will be in vain!
