Douluo Continent: The Butterfly, Starting from the Authority of Death
Chapter 61 The Butterfly's Scheme
The biggest difference between Mingdu and the original Douluo Three Kingdoms is the soul tool. It's like the difference between an agricultural empire and an empire that has experienced the Industrial Revolution. The two kinds of prosperity give people completely different feelings.
The three people sitting in the carriage continued their conversation.
Mingdu is very large; even after entering the city, it takes some time to reach one's destination.
"Miss Xia Die, has Xuan Zi escaped?"
Looking at the prosperity of Mingdu, Wang Xian'er thought about what had happened on the way.
"Let me check."
Xia Die focused her thoughts on her spiritual sea, "Demon Spirit, has the soul tool been unlocked?"
Within his spiritual sea of consciousness, a demon's barely suppressed laughter echoed: "My lord, what were you doing?"
"This gluttonous douluo is out of his mind, even though his soul tool is almost out of energy."
"He used his soul power to heal the soul tool again."
"Well……"
Xia Die looked completely bewildered.
"How much longer can we hold on?"
The demon chuckled, "I'm afraid we'll have to wait until the metal structure of your soul tool breaks down."
Xia Die's lips twitched, and her thoughts left her mental sea.
He opened his eyes and saw Wang Xian'er and Zhang Peng looking in his direction. His voice softened as he said, "In terms of maximum time, a week shouldn't be a problem."
"If he can find a way, he might be free in the next moment."
"Is this outrageous?"
Wang Xian'er and Zhang Peng looked at each other in bewilderment.
Especially Zhang Peng, who, while not necessarily very knowledgeable about his exquisite dice, had used them many times. No matter how outrageous Xia Die was, it was impossible for her to completely reforge a level nine soul tool in just over ten minutes.
"What did you do to that soul tool?" Zhang Peng asked curiously, and not only him, but Wang Xian'er also perked up her ears.
The level 98 titled Douluo was sealed for one week.
Although Xia Die mentioned the limit of time, she also mentioned that the other party might be freed in the next second.
But now, more than a day has passed, and Taotie Douluo Xuanzi is still trapped.
A week seems like a possibility.
"I didn't do anything," Xia Die said after thinking for a moment. "The exquisite dice can absorb the external energy of heaven and earth to form a barrier."
"I added some metals to it to enhance the energy absorption conversion rate and stability, as well as the soul power conversion rate."
It's similar to the soul tool that trapped Ma Xiaotao for a long time during the first Star Luo Soul Master Competition in the original work, and the level nine soul tool that trapped Xue Di.
"You mean that Xuanzi's attack on the Linglong Dice's barrier will replenish the Linglong Dice's energy?" Wang Xian'er, after all, was a two-hundred-year-old, and quickly grasped the key point Xia Die was making.
"Yes." Xia Die nodded. "Absorb the external spiritual energy and soul power, and convert it into a barrier to trap the Taotie Douluo."
"As long as he doesn't attack the barrier, the enclosure won't hold him for long."
"Shouldn't this be detectable?" Zhang Peng asked doubtfully.
"No, it's very difficult." Wang Xian'er shook her head. "If it's Xuanzi, it will be very difficult."
"Most Soul Masters can indeed calm down, but Xuanzi is different, especially when he is exhausted and hungry."
"The hungrier he is, the more irritable he becomes, and the less he can think."
"Unless, he's really too hungry to do anything." Wang Xian'er gave Xia Die a deep look.
"Hiss—" Zhang Peng gasped.
The two weren't stupid. Although they didn't ask, they clearly felt that Xia Die had figured out Xuan Zi's personality and was intentionally trying to trick him.
And so, the three fell silent, and the atmosphere gradually became awkward.
"Crunch crunch"
After an unknown amount of time, the carriage came to a stop.
Zhang Peng spread his perception outwards.
"We've arrived at our destination."
Xia Die nodded and got off the car with Zhang Peng and Wang Xian'er.
Zhang Peng gave the Chamber of Commerce's Contra player a Gold Soul Coin card and whispered, "Do you understand what you should and shouldn't say?"
The Contra leader, who had accepted the gold soul coin card, bowed and indicated that he understood.
Zhang Peng led the way, with Xia Die and Wang Xian'er following behind.
Thinking of the Contra Douluo from earlier, Xia Die said, "Lord Zhang Peng, you're quite capable. I thought you were going to silence that Contra Douluo!"
"Miss, I'm not a bloodthirsty person." Zhang Peng was speechless. "I've been to Mingdu many times, and I'm quite familiar with this Soul Douluo."
"Apart from Shangguan Wei'er of the Ordinary Alliance, no one will know about our trip to Mingdu unless we investigate in detail, but we should still be careful."
Although he didn't know what Xia Die would do next, as someone who serves others, he knew what he should do.
I checked into a hotel in Mingdu.
Inside the hotel room, only Wang Xian'er and Xia Die remained. Zhang Peng had gone to the Holy Spirit Church to write a report detailing his observations and experiences during his trip to Xingluo.
Wang Xian'er and Xia Die sat facing each other at a table, the room shielded by Wang Xian'er's soul power.
"Miss Xia Die, I may have said something unpleasant," Wang Xian'er said after a long silence. "Let's put Shangguan Wei'er aside for now. Is that Zhang Peng really trustworthy?"
"The Holy Spirit Cult's strength is just as he mentioned on the way."
"If an accident occurs, the consequences would be unimaginable."
Two level 99 Limit Douluos, plus at least six level 96 or higher Title Douluos.
Hearing about this terrifying power structure, even though Wang Xian'er had broken through to level 97, her scalp still tingled.
Xia Die and I were complete strangers in this place, the kind of people who would be sold off and have no one to help us seek justice.
Xia Die poured Wang Xian'er a cup of tea, then poured one for herself, before returning to her original seat and placing her fingers interlocked on the table.
"Mr. Wang, do you think he's untrustworthy?"
"Personally, I think it's best to be cautious."
Xia Die picked up her teacup, took a sip, and nodded: "I understand your concerns. Actually, I've been having the demon spirit monitor him with butterflies all the time in Xingluo City."
Demon spirits...
Wang Xian'er was stunned for a moment, but when she came to her senses, she didn't ask any more questions and continued to wait for Xia Die to say something next.
He used his soul skill to avoid contact between Yan Shaozhe and Xian Lin'er.
"Because of a promise?"
Wang Xian'er recalled Xia Die mentioning information about Zhang Peng.
"Yes." Xia Die nodded. "A person who combines kindness and severity, and values promises."
Sometimes, the decisions you make can be reassuring.
"Also, he probably had something he wanted to say to me before he left, but he seemed to have some reservations."
"We should give him some trust." Xia Die was silent for a while. "Even if the outcome is worse, it won't be as troublesome as Shrek."
"If all else fails, we can try to contact the Sun and Moon Royal Family."
"I also had this in mind when I let the leader of the Ordinary Alliance go."
"Is your target Crown Prince Xu Tianran?" Wang Xian'er exclaimed in surprise, somewhat belatedly realizing the truth.
"Let's wait and see, we're not in a rush." Xia Die put down the tea she had just sipped. "Right now, the priority is to resolve Senior's martial soul issue, and also my teacher..."
Xia Die's eyes flickered.
"With such a big thing happening in Xingluo, he must be contacting me soon."
"call--"
Upon hearing this, Wang Xian'er breathed a sigh of relief, "If your teacher is here, our safety can indeed be guaranteed."
"Yes, everything will be alright!"
Xia Die picked up a piece of intelligence that Zhang Peng had previously sent her from the table.
"A grand auction will be held here in three days."
"I want to go and see."
Xia Die pointed to the words "Mingdu Auction House" on the newsletter.
