Although Long Xiaoyao is one of the most invincible figures of his time, he is insignificant compared to Ling Yuan Douluo.

He was engulfed in flames, screaming in agony, rolling on the ground, completely devoid of his former composure.

However, the flames burned his martial spirit and soul power, causing him unimaginable pain, but they did not pose any threat to his life.

Lingyuan Douluo only wanted to teach him a lesson.

Ye Xishui was stunned for a moment, then her face showed a look of horror. She only wanted to test Long Xiaoyao's feelings for her, and did not want to kill him. In fact, she had the Phoenix Rebirth technique to save her life and was confident that she could keep Long Xiaoyao safe.

But no one expected that Lingyuan Douluo's strength would be so terrifying.

"No, don't..."

Ye Xishui rushed forward and hugged Long Xiaoyao. Seeing his pained expression, tears streamed down her face.

"My lord, please... please spare him!"

"It's all my fault, please forgive his rudeness, please..."

Ye Xishui knelt on the ground and kept kowtowing.

At this moment, she finally realized the enormous gap in strength between the two sides.

Seeing this, Zhongli Wu looked helpless. If he had known this would happen, he would not have done it in the first place. He had to court death.

He also knelt down and said respectfully:

"Lord Lingyuan, please spare their lives..."

Lingyuan Douluo sneered, "This is just to teach you a lesson. If this happens again, I will kill you all."

As he spoke, Spirit Kite Douluo raised his hand and withdrew the flames.

The flames on Long Xiaoyao's body disappeared, and he stopped howling in agony.

He was pale and collapsed into Ye Xishui's arms.

His eyes, however, were incredibly bright. "Thank you... thank you so much for saving my life, sir..."

Ye Xishui was stunned when she heard this. Long Xiaoyao was being tortured to death by Lingyuan Douluo, so how could he say it was to save his life?

"Since you seem to have some sense, then stop doing stupid things."

Lingyuan Douluo said calmly.

"Yes..." Long Xiaoyao said weakly.

It turns out that Long Xiaoyao had a hidden injury in his body, which was a disease originating from his soul power. Now that the flames of Lingyuan Douluo have burned it away, it is equivalent to burning away the lesion. Given time, he will recover sooner or later.

If it weren't for this experience, Long Xiaoyao would have collapsed sooner or later due to a battle.

Ye Xishui grasped Long Xiaoyao's wrist, sensing the changes within his body, and only then did she realize why Long Xiaoyao had said that.

She finally understood what had happened.

"Thank you, sir..." Ye Xishui hurriedly kowtowed as well.

She no longer had any arrogance or emotional problems.

In the Holy Spirit Church, the strong have absolute dominance over the weak.

She and Long Xiaoyao had just offended Lingyuan Douluo.

As a result, Lingyuan Douluo repaid evil with kindness. If she had been ungrateful, she wouldn't have survived until now.

Lingyuan Douluo ignored them and waved his hand, "Don't waste time, come and work with us."

"Yes……"

Lingyuan Douluo hurriedly replied.

Zhongli Wu breathed a sigh of relief and stepped forward to help Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao up.

"You should really thank His Majesty Lingyuan for his great kindness. Working here is definitely more enjoyable than being the leader of the Holy Spirit Church."

Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao remained silent. Having survived such a calamity, they had come to know each other's feelings.

Whether this place is truly as wonderful as it seems or not.

The fact that they can be together is already the best outcome.

Soon, it was noon.

The Soul Guide Broadcasting System started playing educational videos from the Spirit Hall, and all the workers ate their meals in the canteen while watching.

Although the pills are still being distributed, almost no one is willing to take them.

That would be such a waste!

They ate ordinary food and watched "educational films".

Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao consumed the pills immediately upon receiving them for the first time.

Soon, a rosy hue appeared on both of their faces.

After the ordeal an hour ago, Long Xiaoyao's body was depleted, but with this pill, it was rapidly replenishing itself.

The same was true for Ye Xishui; the venom and negative energy within her body seemed to melt away like an iceberg at this moment.

She said she had taken a pill, but she thought it was more like taking a "little sun"!

Such a treasure, and everyone has one?

Ye Xishui couldn't understand it and stared blankly at Zhongli Wu.

Zhongli Wu nodded vigorously, knowing what Ye Xishui was marveling at. "Yes! Three pills a day, everyone gets them, whether they're a Title Douluo or an ordinary person!"

"The one who earns the most salary should be that orange."

"Ju Zi possesses enough wealth to make her the most popular person in the Sun Moon Empire..."

Zhongli Wu was quite envious, looking at Ju Zi who was having a special meal with Bi Ji and Ling Yuan Douluo in the distance, his eyes full of longing.

He, the dignified leader of the Holy Spirit Cult, couldn't even become a squad leader here.

……

On the other side, Ladio looked at the huge device he had designed; the mechanism of the device was actually very simple.

The crater leading to the Earth's core is not just the star core of Douluo Star.

It is also the center of the Douluo Continent.

In layman's terms, it is the entrance to the realm of truth.

He can use the device he has made to draw upon the power of the laws of the Douluo world and then break through the "membrane".

This weapon system has surpassed the level of a destroyer and is a world-class weapon.

If fully charged, it could even shatter the Douluo Continent.

What those "workers" were actually doing was reinforcing and preventing the slight aftershocks of the weapons from having too much impact on the ground.

Ladio named the weapon "Homecoming".

Today, he is attempting his first test shot, hoping to break down the "barrier" between the Douluo world and draw the attention of Bo Shi Zun.

He flashed and appeared above the "Return Journey" megaphone-like weapon, activated the machine, and immediately, bursts of energy gathered upwards from the bottom of the crater.

That is the power of laws transforming into real energy.

……

Meanwhile, outside the Demon Forest, in a nearby city called Kran.

The Sun and Moon Emperor, Xu Tianran, and three deities all appeared here.

Although the three gods all claimed they could easily eliminate the scourge of the Demon Forest, the Sun and Moon Emperor still decided to be cautious.

Through their investigation, they learned that the people in the Demon Forest would go out to buy a lot of food.

By calculating the amount of food, they discovered that the people in the Demon Forest might still be alive!

Inside the city lord's mansion, the Sun and Moon Emperor requisitioned the place and held a banquet.

"My three esteemed deities, please rest a little. I am well aware of your formidable strength, but as the saying goes, 'Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated...'"

The Sun and Moon Emperor raised his wine cup and addressed the three deities.

The White Tiger Saint King said calmly, "You humans are always making trouble. If you ask me, just do it! If you lose, just call me boss. There's no problem with that."

Long Gong Meng Shu chuckled and said, "Mr. Xu is right. However, secretly going to the Sun Moon Empire without daring to show his face shows that he's not exactly a powerful figure."

Bai He nodded and said, "Yes, all the temples have agreements and must maintain their dignity. How could they sneak in and become a laughing stock?"

They all shared the same view.

Other temples and forces are all eyeing the merged Sun and Moon Continent.

They came here first, so naturally they were able to enjoy the first bowl of soup.

If it could become the state religion of the Sun Moon Empire, it would have a greater influence on the Sun Moon Empire and bring more benefits.

Upon hearing this, the Sun and Moon Emperor felt even more confident.

With all three deities saying so, the anomalies in the Demon Forest no longer seem to be a problem.

As a result, the banquet became even more joyous.

He also offered beautiful women to the three gods, but they all refused.

Xu Tianran asked if it was possible to restore his legs, as he had not yet found a way to do so.

All three gods said it would be easy, but they were still unable to do it.

It will be a piece of cake once the main god behind the temple arrives.

Now, whether it's a first-level god, a second-level god, or a third-level god, if they can establish their own temple and have god-level powerhouses under their command, they can be called a chief god.

The Emperor of the Sun and Moon listened with longing and wonder, and at the same time, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

If another world is so powerful, then he can forget about annexing it.

They should even be thankful that the temple does not attack the Sun and Moon Empire, otherwise what would they use to defend themselves?

In short, they definitely need to improve their relationship with each other now.

None of the three gods used their divine power to suppress the alcohol's effects. They fought a drinking contest, each refusing to yield to the other, and drank over a hundred jars of wine.

They all got completely drunk.

They all turned red in the face and started bragging.

The White Tiger Saint King said that their Beast God Temple was the strongest among all the temples in the world, because the Golden Dragon King was also the strongest god.

If he were to take action, he wouldn't even need to lift a finger; simply revealing his identity would silence the gods in the Demon Forest.

Bai He was unconvinced, saying that he could solve the problem even faster. He could arrive at the Demon Forest in an instant. If the other party was not convinced, then with his speed, he could throw those god-level powerhouses onto the Douluo Continent in one night!

Long Gong Meng Shu, not to be outdone, retorted that when it came to the piety of believers, everyone knew that the Bronze Temple was second to none.

The more they argued, the more the Emperor Sun and Moon would have his concubines pour them more wine.

Before long, Bai He, spurred on, stood up and said, slightly drunk, "Since that's the case, then I'll go and show you the speed of our Temple of Speed!"

"No need to wait until tomorrow, I'll go now and see what's going on in the Demon Forest!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the white crane suddenly transformed into a beam of white light and vanished instantly.

Like a shooting star, yet without making a sound.

The Sun and Moon Emperor was startled. Looking at the speed of the white crane, he became even more aware of the abyss-like gap between gods and mortals.

If Baihe wanted to harm him, he could probably take his head in the blink of an eye!

Just then, a servant suddenly came to the door and announced:

"The people from the Demon Forest have come into the city; she's here to buy food again."

The Emperor of the Sun and Moon immediately ordered that the other party bring the person over.

Soon, a beautiful figure followed the servant in.

It was Ju Zi, accompanied by an evil spirit master, Elder Nangong of the Holy Spirit Cult.

As soon as they entered, Emperor Sun and Moon and Xu Tianran recognized them.

Upon seeing the oranges, Xu Tianran's expression became somewhat unnatural.

Regardless of the circumstances, the fact remains that he threw the oranges into the Demon Forest!

"Orange, are you alright in the Demon Forest? I've been worried about you..."

Xu Tianran pushed the wheelchair to Ju Zi's side and took her hand.

Orange was slightly taken aback. She was so engrossed in her work in the Demon Forest that she had almost forgotten about what was happening outside.

Seeing Xu Tianran now brought me back to my senses.

"Your Highness, I'm fine. We all misunderstood those two dignitaries; they are both good people..."

Orange smiled.

"What kind of 'good people'?! Orange, you don't need to speak up for them. We can't tolerate being forcibly detained!"

"We're here this time to drive them out, and we're confident we can do it!"

Xu Tianran's tone was extremely firm.

Orange paused slightly, looking at Xu Tianran with a puzzled expression.

Xu Tianran then introduced Ju Zi to two divine beings who had come to their aid, one of whom had already gone to investigate the situation.

Just wait until tomorrow, and you can kill those outsiders in an instant.

The White Tiger Saint King revealed a sinister smile, "Killing him isn't necessary; we have an agreement. However, he'll definitely suffer a bit!"

Long Gong Meng Shu nodded in agreement, then looked at Ju Zi and asked, "Little girl, tell me, how many god-level experts are there in the Demon Forest?"

Orange thought for a moment and said, "Three, but..."

"Three of them? That doesn't matter. Whether it's righteousness or strength, we are no match for them. Don't go back today; come with us tomorrow."

The White Tiger Saint King casually remarked, while devouring meat.

"But..." Orange was reluctant; she really liked her current job.

"Little girl, don't worry. They are gods, but there are differences between gods. You don't need to be afraid of their retaliation."

Long Gong Meng Shu said calmly, not afraid at all, and not even bothering to ask about the other party's appearance.

Of course, this was also because they were all feeling a bit tipsy from the alcohol.

"This..." Orange frowned slightly, hesitating between the two sides.

"Alright, orange, have you eaten yet? Why don't we eat together? With the three gods here, you can rest assured."

Xu Tianran patted the orange on the back to comfort it.

Elder Nangong of the Holy Spirit Cult realized that this was an opportunity to "seize power."

While everyone was comforting Orange, he turned and left.

He needs to hurry back and complain!

Orange is actually betraying the sacred land!

……

The heart of the Demon Forest.

The white crane moved incredibly fast, instantly arriving in the sky. Looking at the people preparing to rest, it subconsciously said:

"Ha! Ugly people always cause trouble. They've kidnapped so many people, only to make this piece of junk?"

Suddenly, two pairs of eyes were fixed on him.

A sense of fear suddenly welled up from the bottom of my heart.

The carefree expression on Bai He's face instantly froze. He rubbed his eyes and looked at the enormous device.

Something's not right. Even I can't help but feel a sense of dread about that device.

Could it be something made by an ordinary god-level being?

Furthermore, beneath the enormous weapon, two women were looking up at him.

He could tell that the two people seemed to be... Bi Ji and Ling Yuan Douluo.

In other words, the figure in the Demon Forest is the Holy Master Latio?!

And he actually did something so stupid?!

"It's over..." Bai He's heart sank. (End of Chapter)
