Douluo Continent: From Blue Silver Grass to Nine-Leaf Sword Grass

Chapter 48 Huyan Li, Defeat

That combo attack had already used up nearly half of Jiang Li's soul power.

This means that even if Jiang Li launches another similar attack, he may still not be able to defeat Hu Yanli in front of him.

Meanwhile, Hu Yanli, on the other side, did not look good either.

After Jiang Li's combination of techniques, Hu Yanli, who was covered in blood, now had an inconspicuous, earth-yellow helmet shining on his head.

His own size had just increased by another size.

The audience below the stage were momentarily stunned by the helmet that appeared on Hu Yanli's head.

It wasn't until a discerning person in the audience recognized it that they couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"That's a soul bone! And a particularly rare head soul bone!"

In an instant, the audience below the stage erupted into a frenzy, as if they had been thrown into a pot of boiling oil.

Soul bones were far too distant for them.

Now that they can see a piece of the soul bone in front of them, some of the audience members have even started to have other thoughts.

But after being reminded by the people next to him, those people could only suppress the greed in their eyes for the time being.

After all, the person currently on stage is the young sect leader of the Elephant Armor Sect.

At least among the arena spectators, there was no one who could afford to offend this faction.

However, there are also some who take unconventional approaches.

Tempted by the Soul Bone, they are willing to risk their lives to gamble with those who live on the edge of death.

At this moment, they had already set their sights on Huyan Li, waiting for the battle to come to a complete end before making their move.

Hu Yanli himself realized this as well. At this moment, the anger in his eyes was almost tangible. He looked at Jiang Li and couldn't help but laugh in anger.

"Fine! Fine! Fine! I underestimated you, but now I'd like to see what other tricks you have up your sleeve!"

The fact that Huyan Li uttered three "good"s in a row was enough to show the anger in his heart at that moment.

Moreover, if Jiang Li still had a slight advantage in the situation just now, it changed after Hu Yanli revealed his head soul bone.

At this moment, everyone looked at Jiang Li with a sense of sympathy in their eyes.

It's important to understand the impact of the Diamond Mammoth Martial Soul.

Hu Yanli already possessed a defense comparable to that of an ordinary Soul Master, and now, with the enhancement of this Soul Bone...

Hu Yanli was even confident that he could withstand the attack of a top-tier Soul Master.

Jiang Li was naturally aware of this, but his expression remained unchanged.

Several pale golden strands of blue silver grass appeared in his hand again, transforming into a deep blue longsword.

Then he closed his eyes directly, and that was that.

Hu Yanli, however, assumed that Jiang Li had already resigned himself to his fate. After a cold laugh, he attacked Jiang Li again.

But when Hu Yanli arrived at a distance of about three zhang from Jiang Li, his pupils couldn't help but shrink suddenly.

Because he discovered that Jiang Li's aura at this moment was completely different from before.

If Jiang Li was previously low-key and reserved, the current Jiang Li is like a sword that has been drawn from its sheath, exuding an aura that is enough to cut through everything.

As Jiang Li suddenly opened his eyes, he rushed towards Hu Yanli in an instant. Upon seeing this, Hu Yanli almost subconsciously activated his defensive stance.

Jiang Li seemed not to see it at all. He swung his long sword and unleashed a terrifying azure sword aura that shot straight toward Hu Yanli.

"Jingle bells!"

As the sound of metal clashing rang out again, it continued for a moment before the sound of metal being cut fell.

Hu Yanli's body, which was the size of a small mountain, collapsed with a thud. The muscles on his body that had swelled due to his soul power quickly dissipated, returning to their previous state of being fat.

Jiang Li, on the other side, held a long sword and pointed it directly at Hu Yanli. Amidst the other's resentment, he coldly spoke.

"You've lost."

Upon realizing this fact, Hu Yanli looked dejected, while the cheers of the audience for Jiang Li lingered in his ears for a long time.

Just as Jiang Li was about to step down, Hu Yanli, with a face full of resentment and bitterness, called out to him.

"I never said you could leave!"

Despite being severely injured, Hu Yanli was lying on the ground, from which a sticky and disgusting yellowish-white liquid, a mixture of fat and blood, was flowing out.

He suppressed the excruciating pain and called out to Jiang Li. After he gave a signal, three Soul Emperor level experts appeared beside Jiang Li and blocked his path.

Clearly, even though Huyan Li was defeated, he still did not intend to let Jiang Li go.

This made Jiang Li's eyes turn cold, but before Hu Yanli's arrogant face could last long, he stopped.

A voice filled with murderous intent rang out.

"Oh? A mere Elephant Armor Sect dares to mess with my disciples? Then you shall stay here today."

Not long after the voice fell, the three Soul Emperors who had been so aggressive in trying to capture Li...

In the blink of an eye, he was smashed into a pool of blood.

Beside Jiang Li appeared a middle-aged man.

Because Dugu Bo's appearance had also changed, Hu Yanli did not recognize him for a moment. Just as he was about to hurl insults at the person who dared to kill him, he realized that Dugu Bo's appearance had changed.

The next moment, a terrifying aura emanated from Dugu Bo.

Nine spirit rings appeared beneath his feet.

"A Title Douluo...a titled Douluo!"

In a small place like Karl City, many people will never have the chance to see a titled being, even on the day they die.

Upon seeing the nine spirit rings glowing beneath Dugu Bo's feet, the audience fell silent instantly, yet their faces still shone with respect and fervor—this was the power of a title.

Hu Yanli wasn't really stupid; he realized that the other party actually had a Title Douluo behind him.

His expression immediately changed, and he adopted a fawning look, about to speak.

He was knocked unconscious by the overwhelming pressure of Dugu Bo, a titled Douluo, and at the same time, the sound of many bones breaking echoed in his body.

Then Dugu Bo turned to look at Jiang Li and slowly spoke in a questioning tone.

"Xiao Li, are you going to kill this little beast yourself?"

Jiang Li looked at Hu Yanli, who was already unconscious, thought for a moment, then gently shook his head and transmitted his voice to Dugu Bo.

"Forget it, let him live. This guy is an idiot after all. After exposing his head soul bone, there are too many people around now. When we get back, we can ask for a high price for his soul bone on the black market, and someone will naturally help us take care of this guy."

Upon hearing this telepathic message, Dugu Bo couldn't help but nod. Hu Yanli's background was the Elephant Armor Sect, and in recent years he had been secretly getting close to the Spirit Hall.

It's really not worth it to break ties with the Elephant Armor Sect for the sake of such an idiot.

As for what happens after he leaves, if Huyan Li dies, how can he be blamed?

After all, it's quite reasonable for someone to be secretly hunted down and killed by several Soul Saints after exposing their head soul bone in public, right?

Although Jiang Li won, he showed no joy on his face, because he was well aware of everything that had happened that day.

It is believed that soon the high-level forces in Tiandou City will fully understand the situation, and the facts are indeed as Jiang Li guessed.

But the first to receive the news was not the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, which he expected to be extremely sensitive to information, but Qian Renxue…
