Douluo Continent: Starting with a Heavenly Fire Judgment

Chapter 267 The Angel Joins

Ji Lin had already completed the surveillance mission when he killed the Evil Soul Emperor. After that, whether it was wiping out the Holy Spirit Cult branch or killing the Third Elder, it was all done by chance. After all, he didn't like Evil Soul Masters. He also tested his current combat power. In terms of destructive power alone, he was above average, but he definitely couldn't beat a Title Douluo unless he used the power of Heavenly Flame Unleashed and the Snow Emperor. He could fight a Soul Douluo, but whether he could win depended on compatibility. As for Soul Saints, it was a thin veil.

After all, his equipment was far too overpowered: a million-year-old Holy Mark, a seven-hundred-thousand-year-old Holy Mark, and a four-hundred-thousand-year-old Holy Mark. Just the support of these three Holy Marks alone was enough to allow him to fight beyond his level. Not to mention Ji Lin's dual ultimate martial souls, soul bones and soul rings, and various powerful Holy Mark skills. Although Ji Lin's soul power level slowed him down, it was still terrifying enough.

In the Blue Dream room of the Rose Hotel, Ji Lin, Ye Guyi, and Ling Luochen sat on the sofa drinking red tea.

While Meng Hongchen was in seclusion, Chi Yuan took Nana away, and Nan Qiuqiu returned to Dilongmen. Now, only the three of them are together.

Ji Lin leisurely took a sip of red tea and looked at Ye Guyi opposite him, saying, "How about it, Ye Guyi? Have you thought it over? Do you want to join our Zizai Sect? You've seen how powerful our Zizai Sect's Grand Elder is. That Third Elder is a Title Douluo-level evil soul master and a level nine soul master, but he was powerless against Teacher Chi Yuan. With Teacher Chi Yuan here, you don't have to worry about being hunted down by Title Douluo-level evil soul masters. Moreover, with the guidance of a Title Douluo, you can avoid some detours."

Ye Guyi had clearly made up her mind, and nodded directly, saying, "Okay, I'll join the Freedom Sect. Is there any ceremony required?"

This time, she realized that evil spirit masters were already banding together. If she continued to hunt them alone as before, she would eventually run into a ghost, and by then it would be too late to regret it.

Moreover, Ji Lin's strength deeply attracted her. The way Ji Lin fought with the Third Elder before left a deep impression on her. His strength, confidence, and composure in having everything under control made her heart surge with excitement, and she wished she could fight Ji Lin on the spot.

But she is also self-aware; she enjoys fighting, but she doesn't like being one-sidedly beaten.

She prefers battles that are evenly matched and have back-and-forth exchanges, rather than battles that are destined to be lost.

"very good."

Ji Lin smiled broadly. Ye Guyi was a super promising talent. If she was properly nurtured, she could even become a Limit Douluo.

Ji Lin took out the Book of Contracts and gestured for Ye Guyi to sign it.

While they were drinking tea, Ji Lin had already told her about the existence of the Book of Contracts. Having made up her mind, she did not hesitate and signed her name on the Book of Contracts without hesitation.

At the same time, Ji Lin formally taught Ye Guyi the Tai Xu Sword Qi. Ye Guyi had a great talent and learned very quickly. While others memorized the information on the spot and studied it carefully after returning home, Ye Guyi only spent a few hours to master it. This talent was no less than that of Wang Qiu'er and Wang Dong'er.

As night falls, Longcheng is bathed in a peaceful and serene atmosphere.

After dinner, Ye Guyi and Ling Luochen went back to their respective rooms to cultivate. Ye Guyi had just obtained the Taixu Sword Qi for the first time, and was now full of curiosity, eager to study it carefully.

After experiencing today's battle, Ling Luochen realized that the gap between her and Ji Lin was widening. In order not to hold Ji Lin back, she refused Ji Lin's invitation to go shopping and instead went straight back to her room to cultivate.

Ji Lin had no interest in shopping, so he went to the hotel and ordered some food. He packed it in a lunchbox and went to Meng Hongchen's room. Meng Hongchen hadn't come out during dinner, saying she had no appetite and had stayed in her room all by herself.

"Bang bang".

"The dream is me, Ji Lin."

Upon hearing that it was Ji Lin, Meng Hongchen opened the door and let Ji Lin in.

Ji Lin placed the lunchbox on the table, looked at the listless Meng Hongchen, and said with a smile, "What's wrong? Is the news of the Sun Moon Empire's high-ranking officials colluding with evil soul masters really that hard for you to accept?"

"Or is it that what you really find hard to accept is that your respected and admired grandfather was actually one of the people who colluded with evil spirit masters? That's the reality you don't want to face."

Meng Hongchen raised her head, pursed her lips, and said in a low voice, "I still don't believe that Grandpa would collude with evil spirit masters. The common people of the Sun Moon Empire have also suffered greatly from evil spirit masters. Grandpa used to teach me that evil spirit masters are a cancer on the world and should be eradicated."

Ji Lin shook his head and said, "Dream, sometimes people are not in control of their own lives. This world is not black and white; there is also gray in the middle. If black represents evil and white represents justice, then gray represents balance and compromise. As long as there is benefit, anything can be compromised and negotiated. For example, the high-ranking officials of the Sun Moon Empire and the evil soul masters. Didn't your grandfather and the high-ranking officials of the Sun Moon Empire know that evil soul masters are untrustworthy and will harm the people of the country? They knew very well, but they needed the combat power of evil soul masters, so they could tolerate the existence of evil soul masters for the time being. I believe that no normal person would like to deal with evil soul masters, and your grandfather was no exception. He just compromised."

Ji Lin opened the lunchbox, took out the food, and pressed Meng Hongchen down to her seat at the table. He said, "So Meng, don't think too much. This is not something you can control. Your task now is to learn and grow. When you return to the Sun Moon Empire, it's not too late to ask your grandfather for clarification. I believe he will give you an answer then. If it were your brother Xiao Hongchen, he would understand this principle even faster than you."

Meng Hongchen hesitated and asked, "You should report this to Shrek Academy, right? Will Shrek then notify the mainland and expose this matter?"

Ji Lin laughed and said, "It's not that simple. There's no clear evidence that the Sun Moon Empire colluded with evil spirit masters. Nana's testimony alone is useless. She only saw an evil spirit master enter Mingde Hall, but she has no evidence to show that Mingde Hall colluded with evil spirit masters. Mingde Hall can simply say that they didn't know that person was an evil spirit master. Shrek Academy will probably pretend they didn't find out, but they will definitely be on high alert in secret. As for exposing it, it's useless. The people of the original three kingdoms of Douluo Continent already dislike the Sun Moon Empire, so adding another charge of colluding with evil spirit masters won't matter. The people of the Sun Moon Empire won't believe it; they will only think that Shrek is slandering the Sun Moon Empire."
