Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Spinning Top, Explosive Warrior

As Ning Fengzhi walked out of the Imperial Study, he glanced back at the tightly closed door and thought to himself: Qian Renxue, I hope you really are not on good terms with your mother, just as Wang Teng said.

Otherwise, I would have made a mistake in this move.

Inside the Imperial Study, Xue Qinghe sat on the dragon throne, the smile on his face gone.

He picked up the teacup on the table, but didn't drink it. He just stared at the tea leaves floating in the cup, his gaze deep.

"Wang Teng has disappeared... The Spirit Hall has made their move..."

He muttered to himself, a meaningful smile playing on his lips.

"Bibi Dong, what exactly are you trying to do?"

"Are you trying to test me, or to weaken my allies?"

Xue Qinghe put down his teacup, stood up, walked to the window, and looked out at the deep night.

"Someone come here."

"exist."

A man dressed in black emerged from the shadows and knelt on one knee.

"Pass down the order to mobilize all the spies around Tiandou City to search for Wang Teng's whereabouts."

"I want to see him alive or dead."

"Yes."

After the man in black disappeared, Xue Qinghe stood there for a long time.

"Mother……"

Xue Qinghe murmured the word, his tone so complex that it was impossible to tell whether it was sarcasm or something else.

……

After the search began, Xue Qinghe still took the time to return to the Spirit Hall.

He didn't sneak back, but walked openly into the Papal Palace.

The bishops and elders inside the hall reacted with varying expressions upon seeing the Holy Maiden hidden by the Spirit Hall.

Bibi Dong sat on the high platform, watching her daughter walk in, her face expressionless.

"What are you here for?"

Bibi Dong's voice was as flat as if she were asking a stranger.

"doing what?"

Qian Renxue stood in the center of the hall, looking up at her mother on the high platform, a cold smile on her lips.

"I'd like to ask Your Holiness, what is the meaning of your sending someone to kill Wang Teng?"

Bibi Dong's eyebrows twitched slightly, but she didn't say anything.

"The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is my ally, Ning Fengzhi is my teacher, and Wang Teng is the earl I just conferred."

Qian Renxue's voice grew louder and louder, echoing in the empty hall.

"You sent people to take action against them without saying a word. Did you even consider my position?"

"Your stance?"

Bibi Dong finally spoke, her tone still calm, but a hint of coldness flashed in her eyes.

"Your stance is to sit properly on the dragon throne in Heaven Dou City and be a good puppet emperor."

"You just need to cooperate when the Spirit Hall is operating."

"You don't need to worry about anything else."

"You don't need me to worry about it?"

Qian Renxue sneered and said, "You sent people to kill my allies, and you say I don't need to worry about it?"

"Bibi Dong, do you still think I'm that little girl you used to manipulate?"

The bishops and elders inside the temple all lowered their heads, unable to bear watching the confrontation between the mother and daughter.

Bibi Dong stood up, looking down at Qian Renxue, her voice suddenly turning cold. She said somewhat angrily, "Qian Renxue, mind your place."

"I am the Pope, and you are my subordinate."

"This is not a place for you to run wild."

"subordinate?"

Qian Renxue gritted her teeth, a flash of anger in her eyes, and shouted, "Very well, Your Holiness, then I will take my leave."

Qian Renxue turned to leave, but stopped at the palace entrance and said without turning her head, "Ghost Leopard Douluo is dead."

"The man you sent to kill Wang Teng is dead."

"As for Wang Teng, he was nowhere to be found, neither alive nor dead."

Are you satisfied now?

After saying that, Qian Renxue strode away from the Papal Palace.

Bibi Dong stood on the high platform, her fingers gripping the handrail tightly, her knuckles turning white.

"Ghost Leopard Douluo...is dead?"

She murmured, her voice so low that only she could hear it.

Previously, due to Ning Fengzhi and Qian Renxue's swift actions, the Spirit Hall had not yet received news of Ghost Leopard Douluo's death.

The main hall was deathly silent.

……

Sunset Forest, in some unknown corner.

Wang Teng hid on the top of a large tree, enveloped in the golden light of the Supreme Golden Armor Spinning Top. The Sacred Beast Vajra Armor lay beside Wang Teng, vigilantly watching their surroundings.

At this point, Wang Teng had been unconscious for several days.

Although he was described as being in a coma, he wasn't actually in a complete coma.

Wang Teng's consciousness was submerged in the sea of ​​spirit, and he could perceive everything in the outside world, but his body could not move.

The hole in his chest has shrunk considerably, and his heart is slowly healing, but the process is frustratingly slow.

The Blue Silver Emperor's right leg bone has a very strong regenerative ability, but its heart is not an ordinary organ.

Once it's broken, it's broken. Repairing it takes much longer than repairing bones or muscles.

Wang Teng could only wait patiently, one day, two days, three days...

He didn't know how many days had passed, only that the hole in his chest had finally closed up and his heart had grown back.

"As expected of a 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor Soul Bone."

Wang Teng secretly praised in his heart: "As expected of the Blue Silver Emperor with the life attribute."

"If it were a different soul bone, I would probably be dead by now."

Meanwhile, Ah Yin woke up shortly after Wang Teng fell into a coma.

She woke up earlier than Wang Teng, and the first thing she did after waking up was to help him conceal the aura of his 100,000-year-old soul bone.

That soul bone was left behind after the Blue Silver Emperor's sacrifice, and it shared the same origin as Ah Yin, so she could control it with ease.

With Ah Yin around, even if outsiders examine Wang Teng's body up close, it would be difficult for them to discover the existence of that soul bone.

Wang Teng was able to completely lose consciousness and confidently allow his body to repair itself precisely because A Yin had woken up.

With Ah Yin watching over him in the Sea of ​​Spirit, and with her helping to hide his soul bone and maintain its skills, Wang Teng was able to "sleep" peacefully.

After a period of recovery, Wang Teng's heart condition improved significantly, but he still dared not leave the area.

The forest outside is teeming with spirit beasts. In Wang Teng's current state, even a thousand-year-old spirit beast could easily take his life.

Although the Vajra Armor could hold out for a while, this was, after all, a forest, and no one knew how many soul beasts there were.

Therefore, Wang Teng could only wait until his body recovered to the point where he could fight before trying to leave.

A few more days passed.

On this day, Wang Teng was half asleep when he suddenly heard voices.

"Grandpa, I've looked around here, but it's not here."

It was the voice of a young woman, clear and crisp with a touch of coquettishness.

"Walk a little further ahead."

An old, hoarse male voice rang out, saying, "This forest is shady and damp; we should be able to find a few herbs with cold properties."

Wang Teng suddenly regained his senses.

He struggled to open his eyes and peered down through the gaps in the leaves.

Two figures emerged from the woods.

Ahead was an old man, tall and with a stern face. His long, dark green hair was draped over his shoulders, and he exuded an aura that made people afraid to approach him.

Following behind was a young woman, in her early twenties, with a beautiful face and a touch of heroism in her eyes.

Wang Teng recognized them.

Dugu Bo, Dugu Yan.

A grandfather and grandson.

This is Sunset Forest, and the Dugu family's residence is nearby.

Wang Teng remembered hearing during the Soul Master Competition that the Dugu family's lair was located just outside the western side of Sunset Forest.

He didn't pay much attention at the time, but he didn't expect that he would teleport in this direction.

Wang Teng's soul bone skill could only move him about a thousand meters, but due to the spatial interference from Ghost Leopard Douluo, his teleportation went astray. He was thrown out an unknown distance and flew directly to another direction of Sunset Forest.

However, Wang Teng could be said to have turned misfortune into blessing.

After all, if he hadn't strayed so far, he might have already been found and killed by the enraged Ghost Leopard Douluo.
