Douluo Continent: The Peerless Tang Sect, Angels and Rakshasa Return

Chapter 205—Nan Shuishui, you don't want your daughter to…

Wandering through the streets and alleys, a large courtyard came into view in the distance.

Upon seeing the courtyard, the group's eyes lit up. A second glance at the large plaque above the gate confirmed that this was indeed the Earth Dragon Gate.

The gate to the Earth Dragon Gate was open, but no one was guarding it.

You can hear many people talking in the courtyard from a distance.

"Have you found that Nan Qiuqiu?" Qian Lingyun glanced at Shangguan Weier beside her. Shangguan Weier closed her eyes and replied, "Found her. She's less than twenty meters to your left. She's only at the fourth ring cultivation level right now!"

"Then let's do it!" Qian Lingyun pulled out a soul-guided cannon from somewhere, intending to fire it at the wall next to her, but then sighed, put the cannon away, and used her fists instead.

With a muffled thud, half of the smooth, neat wall crumbled from her punch. She stepped over the wall and playfully held up five fingers to the group of young people inside.

"I'll give you five seconds to kneel. If you're still standing after five seconds, you're dead!"

"Who are you? How dare you cause trouble in my Longmen!"

A Soul Master shouted angrily at Qian Lingyun, but Qian Lingyun remained smiling, her lips slightly parted, and she slowly uttered a number: "One!"

"Stop pretending."

The leading girl let out a delicate shout, and two yellow and two purple spirits swirled around her delicate body. She pointed her right hand towards the sky, and dark red scales grew from her fingertip.

The pink scales were crystal clear. As the scales extended, her entire right hand seemed to turn into a piece of pink crystal. A pale pink flame lit up and instantly burned away the sleeve of her right arm, revealing the entire arm that was completely covered by scales.

"two!"

"Boom—" Amidst the deafening roar, a burst of pink light suddenly exploded on the ground, the pink light spreading out to a diameter of more than fifteen meters.

That wasn't the end of it. Immediately afterward, there were two more loud "booms." The series of explosions increased the area affected by the pink light by another fifty percent.

"three!"

As the pink light faded, a purple halo automatically appeared around Qian Lingyun, shielding her from the attacks.

It must be said that the Annihilation attribute is indeed a very rare thing. It is surprising that Nan Qiuqiu, with her cultivation level, was able to consume Qian Lingyun's soul power to a certain extent.

"Four!"

Just as Qian Lingyun uttered the number four, several distinct soul power fluctuations emanated from the depths of the Earth Dragon Gate.

The most powerful force enveloped the entire courtyard. Soul Masters below the seventh ring of the Earth Dragon Gate were unable to move under this overwhelming soul power and fell to the ground in droves.

Among those fleeting fluctuations of soul power, there was one that was similar to Nan Qiuqiu's, but much stronger.

Low-level Soul Masters were all dead, and high-level Soul Masters had already perished. There was no point in foolishly counting them anymore. Qian Lingyun put down her hand, walked to Nan Qiuqiu's side, grabbed her collar, and pulled her towards the inner hall of the Earth Dragon Gate.

Inside the Earth Dragon Gate, after a one-sided crushing, it was already a scene of utter devastation.

The house was damaged in many places, with ruins and broken walls everywhere, clearly ravaged by soul skills.

Nan Qiuqiu had only been gone for a short while when she saw the place where she grew up transformed into this state. Her eyes immediately reddened, and she turned to fight Qian Lingyun to the death.

"Shh, be quiet. If you want your mother to die, keep making a scene!" Qian Lingyun glanced at Nan Qiuqiu, her dark red eyes full of contempt, and said sarcastically, "Little girl from the fourth ring, even if you attack, you can't break through my defense."

Entering a relatively well-preserved house, Zhang Peng found himself standing on a middle-aged woman who was bound hand and foot.

"Fighting with Contra is really boring. The warm-up isn't even over before the battle is already over." Zhang Peng pulled Nan Shuishui up and introduced with a smile, "Miss Saint... we caught her. She's not hurt, not crippled, and her face is fine too."

"Hello, senior. Given the current situation, let's have a chat!" From the middle-aged beauty's face, which resembled Nan Qiuqiu's, Qian Lingyun had already confirmed her identity.

"You've come here to storm our door, not to have a chat," Nan Shuishui said with a mocking smile, sneering, "You're more like you've come to force us to submit!"

"If you insist on saying that, it's not impossible!" Qian Lingyun nodded, took out a dagger from her storage soul tool, "Take me to that place in your Earth Dragon Gate, you should know where I'm talking about! So don't make me angry."

"When I get angry, I'm prone to doing things like wiping out an entire family, like cutting someone into human sticks and keeping them in a kimchi jar! Or using someone as a vase to grow flowers! Anything is possible."

As she spoke, Qian Lingyun thoughtfully used a dagger to trim Nan Qiuqiu's eyebrows. It must be said that her knife skills were truly remarkable, comparable to those of a top-tier cosmetic surgeon on Earth.

"!" Nan Qiuqiu cried out in fear, her eyes tightly shut, "Mom!"

The desired effect had been achieved. Qian Lingyun was no longer a deranged killer. She put away the dagger, gently scraped the stray hairs on Nan Qiuqiu's face with her fingernails, and looked up threateningly:

"Madam Nan, your daughter is so adorable, you wouldn't want pretty flowers and plants growing out of her seven orifices, would you?"

"..." Nan Shuishui fell silent. She only had one daughter, Nan Qiuqiu. Judging from Qian Lingyun's appearance, she definitely couldn't renege on her debt, and as for stalling for time, that was even more impossible.

Finally, she gave in, "Don't hurt Qiuqiu, I'll take you there!"

"A wise move!" Qian Lingyun smiled slightly, but did not let go of Nan Qiuqiu, instead letting Nan Shuishui lead the way.

Nan Shuishui led Zhang Peng and the others to the backyard of the Earth Dragon Gate. The backyard was a large garden, but it was now desolate. The plants in the garden had been extensively damaged when Wu Yun was clearing out the seven-ring soul masters, and they no longer looked as beautiful as they used to.

Seeing all this, Nan Shuishui closed her eyes in anguish. The Earth Dragon Gate had been passed down for over a thousand years, yet it was lost in her generation; the pain she felt was unimaginable.

However, she did not stop, and led Qian Lingyun and the other two to the depths of the backyard, to a well.

As they approached the well, Qian Lingyun's heart stirred slightly. She vaguely sensed a more pronounced movement in her sixth soul ring.

"This is it. It's a cold spring. The spring contains rich spiritual energy, and drinking from it is nourishing for our Soul Masters."

"However, only the sect leader of the Earth Dragon Sect knows that beneath this cold spring, there is actually another cave entrance, which we have sealed off with mechanisms. Inside that cave, there are many strange minerals. However, the temperature inside the cave is too low; even a titled Douluo-level expert among our ancestors could not stay there for long. Once, an ancestor mined out a small piece of ore from inside. It contained a rich aura of ice attributes."

"The ore itself also exhibits metallic properties. Therefore, our ancestors have always believed that there is a mineral vein inside this cave, a vein containing rare ice-attribute metals. As for the exact extent of its mineral content, we don't know."

Afterwards, Nan Shuishui explained in detail how to open the cave, and then looked at Nan Qiuqiu in Zhang Peng's hands and said, "Can you release my daughter?"
