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

Chapter 360 409410—Physics and Principles, you should at least talk about one of them! (Part 2)

Honestly, if the emperor of the Sun Moon Empire dared to hold court before dawn, she could secretly get up in the middle of the night and tear down every single tile of the Sun Moon Imperial Palace.

Don't like to sleep?

Then none of you should sleep!

They came to the Heavenly Soul Empire to collect debts, but as the Empress, Qian Lingyun felt that she must at least maintain a proper appearance.

This explains why, even though she is naturally beautiful enough to go without makeup, she still changes into a proper long dress before going out.

The Empress, with her rebellious nature, is all about pleasing herself!

After following those soldiers around the palace for a while, the group finally stopped outside the main hall. The leader turned around and left a message saying, "Wait a moment, we'll go and inform them," before disappearing from sight, leaving the mother and daughter standing outside the hall in the wind!

After waiting for an unknown amount of time, seeing the eastern sun rise above the mountains and its bright rays illuminate everything equally, Yuma belatedly complained, "No one has come for so long. Are they trying to intimidate us?"

"Isn't this the arrival of the officials?" Qian Lingyun said, looking at the vermilion gate that was slowly opening a hundred meters away. The officials who had come to attend court were lined up neatly and filed in through the gate.

"I knew there was no idiot who would hold court so early! That damn emperor kept me up all night and made me wait for so long! Sweetie, you'd better ask for tens of millions more later, or I won't be able to swallow this!"

Yuma glared angrily at the approaching Heavenly Soul Ministers, intending to kill each and every one of them equally!

It was as if... these poor mules were the reason she couldn't get her beauty sleep.

"Relax, relax! I've come all this way, how can I not make them feel the pinch!" Qian Lingyun glanced subtly at the crowd and said in a deep voice, "There's a tough one inside, and he's quite strong! He's probably been sent specifically to dampen our spirits!"

"Level ninety-six? If it were any of the other royal retainers of the Sun Moon Empire, he might actually have pulled it off! But unfortunately, it's me, his mother, who's here! Tell me, how should I provoke him?"

"Provoke him? It's simple! Just put on a smug look and give him the middle finger!" Qian Lingyun offered her advice without a care in the world.

"Giving the middle finger?!"

Yuma suppressed a laugh, nodded expressionlessly, and then gave the middle finger to a gaunt old man in the crowd.

This old man is a powerful figure from the Body Sect, known as the Golden Body Douluo. His martial soul is his own torso, and his cultivation is extremely high.

He is a level 96 Super Douluo.

In the Body Sect, its status is only inferior to that of Body Douluo Du Busi.

Provoked by a seemingly young red-haired woman, the Golden-bodied Douluo's white eyebrows twitched slightly, appearing quite surprised. He darted through the crowd and arrived in front of Qian Lingyun and her daughter, frowning as he asked:

"If I'm not mistaken, you must be from the Sun Moon Empire..."

[At this point, I hope readers will remember our domain name 1110 ...

"Duke!"

"Empress!"

Neither mother nor daughter both bothered to lift their heads, and answered each other's questions with a very perfunctory two-word response.

"Huh!" Even the Golden-Bodied Douluo Jinpeng was a little surprised by the two women's peculiar reaction, and he couldn't help but ask in return:

"Why do you two dare to be so arrogant in the Heavenly Soul Empire! Don't you know that even a powerful dragon can't suppress a local snake?"

"Tch! If you can't even suppress the local bullies, do you even deserve to be called a powerful dragon?!" Yuma chuckled, pointed to her neck, and beckoned to the Golden Body Douluo.

"Outrageous!" the Golden Body Douluo roared, swinging his palm at Yuma.

"Insolence!" Yuma smirked. Yes, this was the moment she had been waiting for.

She shoved Qian Lingyun aside and swung her palm back, but that seemingly light palm directly collided with the right palm of the Golden Body Douluo.

boom!!!

The instant their palms touched, a terrifyingly powerful shockwave of soul energy emanated from their palms in a circular pattern.

Those ignorant civil and military officials had never witnessed two Super Douluo fighting at such close range.

In an instant, a large number of civil and military officials fell like wheat being harvested. They lay on the ground, looking fearfully at the source of the soul power shockwave, their minds filled with a hundred questions.

What's going on? I didn't check the almanac, and I got caught in the crossfire of a battle between gods!?

After a brief clash of soul power, Yuma and Yuma withdrew their strength, thus ending this meaningless contest.

"Although I don't know when the Sun Moon Empire produced a Super Douluo like you! But my Heavenly Soul Empire isn't just home to one Super Douluo. If you cause trouble here, you might not all make it back unscathed!"

The Golden Body Douluo glared at Yuma with an unpleasant expression.

Although he is not as strong as others, he is not one to mince words!

"Old man, what kind of strength do you have! If you can't beat my mom, what are you talking about!? You've been talking for so long, but you haven't said anything worthwhile!" Qian Lingyun proudly took Yuma's arm and couldn't help but nuzzle her head against Yuma's shoulder!

"What ivory?... "

"Fine! You little brat, how dare you call me a gossip! Today, I'll teach you a lesson on behalf of your family!"

Realizing what was happening too late, the Golden Body Douluo roared in embarrassment and anger. For so many years, for so many years, no one had dared to speak to him like that!

Even the sect leader of the Body Sect, Du Busi, speaks to him as an equal. When did it become the turn of Qian Lingyun, a young girl who is not even twenty years old, to provoke him?

"Getting anxious! Getting anxious!" Qian Lingyun shrank behind Yuma, teasingly saying, "When did I say anything like 'dog's mouth'? Why are you taking it personally? You're really something!"

Qianling's sarcastic tone left the Golden Body Douluo speechless, but he actually stopped in his tracks.

He was actually completely helpless in the face of these words.

Not to mention that he wouldn't be a match for Yuma in a real fight, Qian Lingyun's blatant identity as the Sun and Moon Empress is not something he can easily mess with.

If he really attacks Qian Lingyun and injures the Sun and Moon Empress, who is on a mission to Tianhun as an envoy, even if it's just a scratch, it could be seen as a declaration of war against the Sun and Moon Empire!

But looking at Qian Lingyun's smug face, he felt incredibly frustrated!

What should I do? I'm so annoyed! Does anyone have any suggestions?

Just then, an old woman... well, an old... old hag came running out of the hall. Looking utterly exhausted and breathless, she shouted loudly at the two sides, who were on the verge of exchanging blows:

"Stop! Stop fighting! Your Majesties, please withdraw your divine powers! If this continues, this great hall will be destroyed!"

"So what if it's gone! Let that old guy pay for it!" Yuma said, hands on her hips, glaring fiercely at the Golden Body Douluo.

"Why should I, an old man, have to pay?"

"You started it, if you don't pay, who will!" Qian Lingyun added insult to injury, making the Golden Body Douluo's old face turn the same color as braised pig liver.

This frustration of being unable to fight back or argue with anyone made the aged Golden Body Douluo experience the harshness of life for the first time…

"This old servant begs Your Majesties to stop arguing and come in quickly! His Majesty is already waiting!"

At this moment, the seemingly listless and weak old man stopped pretending. He was also a titled Douluo, and although his strength was not on the same level as the two people clashing here, he still had some right to speak.

"Hmph! For His Majesty's sake, this old man will let it slide with you two women!"

The Golden-Bodied Douluo snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves, and left towards the main hall. Qian Lingyun rolled her eyes and muttered:

"If you can't beat them, you can't beat them! Just admit it! What are you pretending for!"

After speaking, Qian Lingyun pulled Yuma across the crookedly standing officials on the ground and into the main hall.

In the very center of the main hall, the emperor of the Heavenly Soul Empire looked worriedly at the large number of civil and military officials lying dead outside the door.

How so?

Why didn't he just bring these two in earlier? Why did he have to act all high and mighty?

Sigh... He's filled with regret now!

"Your Majesty, the Empress of the Sun and Moon Empire, accompanied by your mother Yuma, have come to Heavenly Dou City to pay our respects! We wish Your Majesty good health!"

Walking to the center of the main hall, Qian Lingyun bowed to Emperor Tianhun. No one could find fault with her in any detail or anything else.

"I wonder what brings the Empress of the Sun Moon Empire to my Heavenly Soul Empire?" The Emperor of the Heavenly Soul Empire said solemnly. His intuition as an emperor told him that this woman, who seemed gentle and friendly, was actually not well-intentioned.

"Oh! I've come here to demand compensation!" Qian Lingyun said with a smile, taking out a damage report submitted by Mingde Hall to Qian Renxue from her storage soul tool.

The report included a total of the losses of various parts, property, and compensation for the deceased, and added an extra 150 percent.

In short, you can think of this as a very high bill…

"Let me see!" Emperor Tianhun sent someone to take the bill from Qian Lingyun. After a quick glance, he pointed to the staggering two hundred million for emotional distress and subsequent compensation, seemingly understanding, and asked, "What are these fees?"

"With something this serious happening, how scared must the survivors and the injured be? I think it's perfectly reasonable to compensate each of them with a few hundred thousand!" Qian Lingyun said aggressively, as if it were the most natural thing in the world.

Snapped!

The Heavenly Soul Emperor tossed the bill onto the table and frowned, saying:

"That may be true, but you have absolutely no evidence to prove that our Heavenly Soul Empire did this!"

"I never said it was your Heavenly Soul Empire that did it!" Qian Lingyun scratched her head, turned to the side, pointed at the Golden Body Douluo beside her, and chuckled, "This was done by their Body Sect!"

"Nonsense! What evidence do you have to prove that we, the Body Sect, belong to you!"

Even the Body Sect could not openly admit to outsiders that they attacked Mingde Hall.

After all… not long ago, they publicly issued a statement saying they had nothing to do with this matter. There’s no reason for them to contradict themselves like that.

"Okay! You want evidence, right? Please watch the video..."

Qian Lingyun rummaged through her storage soul tool for a while and threw out a soul projector. The video playing was exactly what the Mingde Hall's surveillance cameras had recorded before it was destroyed:

With a series of explosions, dark figures suddenly emerged from the ground. These people were all dressed in black, moved with extreme agility, and immediately began to attack those in their surroundings.

With Qian Lingyun's screening, a certain group of people were naturally targeted.

The scene shifts, and a burly man in black extends his right arm, which instantly grows ten times larger, blasting a level five Soul Master who is about to launch a Soul Guidance Device into a shower of blood.

Then, it switches to another strange person whose legs are several times thicker.

Switch... switch, and switch again...

Each frame focuses on a black-clad man whose body has changed due to the release of his original martial soul.

The Golden-Bodied Douluo's lips twitched a few times before he slowly said, "These things don't prove they're from my Body Sect!"

"So, are they their original martial souls?" Qian Lingyun, sharp-tongued, pointed at the man in black in the image and explained in a sarcastic tone:

"It's neither a beast spirit nor a weapon spirit; it's a spirit that amplifies a specific part of the body for combat. Anyone who's read a book knows this is a body spirit, right?!"

"If it were just one or two, I could understand it as an accident, but it turns out that every single one of these guys has a true martial soul."

"With so many Body-type Martial Soul experts, I'd like to ask you, is there another Body-type Sect in the world?"

"You..." The Golden Body Douluo was speechless for a moment, unable to come up with a reason to argue. He could only stammer and look at the Heavenly Soul Emperor, blinking frantically.

"These people do indeed possess Body Spirits, but I remember Shrek Academy also has quite a few Body Spirits!" Emperor Tianhun frowned, deciding to prioritize saving Body Spirit Sect over Shrek Academy. He righteously cited examples:

"For example... for example, that kid who participated in the Soul Master Competition a couple of years ago, for example... that guy, that guy! Who knows, it might have been Shrek Academy that did it..."

Holy crap! They can even blame Shrek Academy for this?! You guys are amazing!

Qian Lingyun was stunned for a moment, seemingly not expecting the Heavenly Soul Empire to say such a thing.

She took a deep breath and threw out two corpses of Body Sect experts, which the Mingde Hall Soul Guidance Masters had desperately preserved, from her storage soul tool: "Based on our examination of the corpses, we have successfully obtained some information from them!"

"A corpse? What does that prove?"

Gazing at the two corpses, the Golden Body Douluo remained silent for a while, a rare hint of sorrow appearing on his face.

Although he did not participate in this operation, he knew that whenever they participated in such dangerous missions, they would not carry anything that could expose their identity.

Unless the Sun Moon Empire can make the dead speak, otherwise…

"I extracted their souls, and under my 'friendly' questioning, they confessed!"

Qian Lingyun pulled out a bottle containing semi-transparent souls from somewhere, uncorked it, and pulled out the two souls with white flames the size of soybeans burning on their heads.

"Please, just kill me! Kill me!"

The broken soul, clutched in the palm of his hand, let out a desperate roar, trying desperately to extinguish the purifying fire above its head, but to no avail.

"Kill you? Fine! Tell me where you're from, and who sent you. Tell me, and I'll give you a quick death. Otherwise, I guarantee you'll be burned alive for a hundred years!"

Qian Lingyun shook the soul in her hand and questioned the Golden Body Douluo and the Heavenly Soul Emperor, "Speak quickly! You only have this one chance!"

Before the words were even finished, the soul entity roared impatiently, "I'm from the Body Sect! I'm from the Body Sect! Our sect leader, Poison Undying, led us there! He took us to Mingde Hall to steal the 100,000-year-old soul beast embryo that was auctioned off in Star Luo City! I've told you everything! I can't take it anymore! Kill me, please!"

"Excellent!" Qian Lingyun nodded in satisfaction, then looked up at Emperor Tianhun and said with a forced smile:

"Excuse me... Did Your Majesty hear me?"

"I heard you!" Emperor Tianhun swallowed nervously and nodded solemnly.

"And what about our compensation..."
