Douluo's Spirit Pearl Divine Sword

"Alright, let's speed up then." The two transformed into two streaks of light and flew at full speed towards Xingluo.

On the battlefield of Xingluo, Tuoba hope once again repelled the attack of the Xingluo Empire. The success was entirely due to the hidden weapon blueprints and talismans brought by Bai He.

Although Xingluo completely surrounded Gengxin City, it could not stop the invincible white crane that flew into the city from the sky.

The Zhuge Divine Crossbow was indeed effective in defending the city. Tianlin's several Mount Tai Press and Purgatory Fire Sea talismans caused heavy losses to the Xingluo army, which now has less than 600,000 out of a total of 700,000.

Therefore, Xingluo no longer dares to launch a strong attack on Gengxin City.

However, after defending for a whole year, Tuoba hope's side also suffered considerable losses. More than a thousand Soul Masters died, and the army lost 40,000. The city's food supplies and mineral resources for manufacturing weapons were also running out. At most, they could only hold out for about ten more days. If no reinforcements arrived after ten days, Gengxin City would inevitably fall.

Moreover, there were three Title Douluo on the other side. If it weren't for the little bit of Asura God power bestowed upon Tuoba hope by Tianlin, he would have been besieged and defeated by them long ago.

Just as Tuoba hope was getting anxious, Baihe finally brought good news: the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's reinforcements had arrived. The Shadow Legion, although small in number, was not a force designed for direct assaults. Baihe told Tuoba Xi to prepare, as they were going to carry out a decapitation strike. When the enemy was in disarray, Tuoba Xi would mobilize the entire army.

Tuoba hope was overjoyed. In fact, he had also thought about the decapitation tactic, but since he was not an agility-based attacker, he was not very suitable for using this tactic. Moreover, there were three titled Douluo in the opposing camp, all of whom were at a similar level to him.

According to the intelligence gathered by Bai He, besides the Emperor, Xingluo has only three other Title Douluos hidden in secret, and this time they have come out in full force.

Although the army of 700,000 is enormous, they are, after all, just ordinary people. As long as the decapitation tactic succeeds, the Holy Dragon Soul Master Legion will be able to defeat them without a leader.

Bibi Dong could actually use this tactic, but firstly, she was not knowledgeable in military strategy and did not know how to train troops. She did not train troops suitable for assassination in advance. The Spirit Empire lacked generals, which was a major weakness of theirs. Secondly, she was too confident and believed that all enemies on the continent could be crushed by force. Therefore, she never thought about assassination. From this point of view, the Spirit Hall seems to be more upright than the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

Ke Ningfeng didn't care about his own despicable actions. He only believed that on the battlefield, the right choice was to achieve victory with the least sacrifice. This is what is meant by "all's fair in war."

As night fell, on a distant hillside, Huanyin was playing the zither, her beautiful melodies enveloping the White Crane and the entire Shadow Legion.

The reason Ning Fengzhi sent her was because her support was completely different from conventional support. In conventional support, the supporting Soul Master and the supported Soul Master cannot be too far apart. Even the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda is the same. Once outside the support range, the support effect will disappear.

As for Huan Yin's support, just like the food-type support, once a buff is given, it only has a time limit and no distance limit. Moreover, the support zither skills that Huan Yin learned from Yao Guang Music Score have an exceptionally long support time, a full hour. That's enough time for the Shadow Legion, which values ​​quick battles, to kill several times.

"Celestial Melody: A Song for the Saints!"

Huan Yin's strongest support skill increases attack, defense, speed, and soul power by 50%. Although this increase is not as great as that of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, this move has an additional effect.

During the support period, the supported Soul Master will be denied all weakening Soul Skills, meaning they will not be affected by any debuffs.

"As expected of a soul skill from the Yao Guang Music Score that could directly gain the favor of the God of Music, the terrifying duration of its buff and the effect of its resistance state are almost comparable to Rongrong's Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda," Yu Feng exclaimed.

He was genuinely happy for his wife, who was so strong.

"Everyone, I am not an agility-type Soul Master, so I cannot go to the battlefield with you. This is all I can do to help this time. Please be sure to return safely," Huan Yin said, bowing.

"Miss Huanyin, you're too kind. With your blessing and the divine weapon Old Lou gave me, I will surely be able to kill the opponent's Title Douluo," Bai He said confidently.

At the edge of the cliff, Zhu Zhuqing looked at the distant Xingluo army with complicated emotions. Bai Chenxiang walked to her side and said, "That's an army of 700,000 men. It seems to stretch as far as the eye can see. Zhuqing, I know that Xingluo is your hometown. If you don't want to be enemies with them, then stay here and protect Sister Huanyin. I believe that your senior brothers won't blame you."

Zhu Zhuqing shook her head. "I know they won't blame me, but actually, coming here was my own request. Ever since the day Zhu Zhuyun took my life, I no longer owe them anything."

"I'm here to seek justice for myself. Fighting Zhu Zhuyun and Davis again is a dream I've always wanted to achieve. I want to show the people of Xingluo that I, Zhu Zhuqing, am no worse than them. If it weren't for my age, I would never have lost to them. Today is the day I prove myself. I also want to show them just how foolish the cold-blooded policy of the Dai and Zhu families, which has lasted for hundreds and thousands of years, of the survival of the fittest and fratricide, really is!"

Chapter 530 White Crane's First Kill of a Title Douluo

As night fell, hundreds of soldiers patrolled the Star Luo Empire's camp.

The place was heavily guarded, but unfortunately, these soldiers were all ordinary people. With the speed of the Min clan and Oslo Zhuzhuqing, these soldiers could not feel anything except a gust of wind.

The distribution of the camps is actually very easy to identify. Those luxurious tents in the center must belong to the Soul Master Legion, while the largest and most magnificent ones belong to either the two commanders, Davis and Zhu Zhuyun, or those offered by the Title Douluo.

They were the targets of Bai He and his companions' journey.

In one of the largest tents in the center, the lights were on, and five people were gathered together, seemingly discussing important matters.

They were Davis and Zhu Zhuyun, a married couple, and the three worshippers of Xingluo.

The short man on the left, with a lewd look in his eyes, kept stealing glances at Zhu Zhuyun's graceful figure. He was a level 91 Twin Serpent Douluo, wielding the Twin Serpent Daggers as his weapon spirit, and was an agility-based attacker.

The one on the right is a burly man, a level 92 Mad Bull Douluo, whose martial soul is the Mighty Bull, a powerful attack type.

As for the one in the middle, he has red hair, a normal build, and a serious face. He is the strongest person in the Star Luo Empire besides Dai Tianjue, a level 92 Fire Dragon Douluo, whose martial soul is Fire Dragon, a power attack type, named Wu Zhao. Moreover, his fire dragon is somewhat different from Liu Erlong's; it is in the shape of a Western fire-breathing dragon, not a mutation of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex.

Perhaps he has a certain affinity with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School rather than with the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex.

“Seniors, we have been held up in Gengxin City by Tuoba hope for a year. We can’t let this continue, or the Heaven Dou Empire will be wiped out by the Martial Soul Empire.” Davis said dejectedly.

“But we can’t just launch a direct attack. The crossbows alone have caused heavy losses to our soldiers. And those talismans are inexplicably powerful. Each one is no less powerful than the ninth soul skill of a Title Douluo. If Tuoba Xi had a lot of them, our 700,000-strong army probably wouldn’t be enough to kill him,” said Mad Bull Douluo.

"There won't be many, otherwise Tuoba hope would have already attacked. But we're not sure how many we have left, so we can't act rashly." Zhu Zhuyun was cautious. If the army suffered heavy casualties in the attempt to attack Gengxin City, it would be a loss.

"Hehe, the Crown Princess is right, but I guess they won't last much longer. The city's food supplies should be almost exhausted, and the entire city is surrounded by us. Even if some flying-type Soul Masters use storage Soul Tools to bring some food in, how can that support the rations of 160,000 troops? Gengxin City will fall without a fight." The Twin Serpent Douluo chuckled evilly. "I heard that Tuoba Xi's lover, the Sect Master of the Sparrow Bee Sect, Feng Langdie, is as beautiful as a flower. You must leave her for me to enjoy. Don't kill her."

"Shameless!" Fire Dragon Douluo Wu Zhao roared. "Tuoba hope faced our army and held firm for a year without retreating an inch. He even fought against three of us single-handedly, risking his life to repel the attacks of three of us Title Douluos several times. He was a hero. We should not dishonor his wife. After we break through the city, I will openly and fairly kill the two of them and bury them together. This is a sign of respect for the strong. Anyone who dares to desecrate their bodies will face my wrath."

"Old Dragon, you don't want to play, so you won't let me play either? What's the point of respecting the enemy?" Twin Serpent Douluo was furious. He had no hobbies in life except playing with beautiful women, especially those who were both strong and noble.

He even coveted Bibi Dong, but even if he had ten times the courage, he wouldn't dare to be presumptuous in front of Bibi Dong. The sect leader of the Sparrow Bee Sect could satisfy one of his desires.

"Alright, Your Majesties, stop arguing. Your Majesty Twin Serpents, if you want beauties, there's no rush. After we break through the city, I'll find a hundred local beauties to accompany you. As for Bee and Butterfly, if you don't want them, then don't. Besides, keeping the enemy around will create unforeseen circumstances. Why invite trouble upon yourself?" Davis hurriedly advised.

What kind of situation is it to have internal strife even before the enemy has been dealt with?

"Alright, we must give His Highness the Crown Prince face. I won't argue with you, old dragon. I estimate that Gengxin City only has about ten days' worth of food left, so I propose a full-scale attack on the city in twenty days. Any objections?" Twin Serpent Douluo said unhappily.

"No objection." The others were willing to listen to him this time, because that was indeed the best time to attack the city.

"Hmph, that concludes the meeting. I'm going to rest." The Twin Serpent Douluo waved his hand and left the tent. He really didn't want to see Wu Zhao, that overly upright guy, anymore. Working with him was the most boring thing ever.

"Sigh!" Davis sighed. Their country's policies were too strict, which caused most of the Soul Masters to go to the Heaven Dou Empire or the Spirit Hall. Apart from his father, there were only three Title Douluo in the whole country, and these three were not on good terms.

Mad Bull Douluo is alright. Although his personality is extremely cruel, he is completely loyal to the royal family, which is why he likes him the most.

The other two were like natural enemies: one was too upright and intolerant of any wrongdoing, while the other was excessively lecherous and couldn't live without women.

"Tch, that old fire dragon, if I could beat you, I would have stabbed you to death with a dagger long ago." On the way back, Twin Serpent Douluo was still complaining.

Just then, he suddenly sensed a murderous aura. His body acted faster than his mind, and he had already gripped the twin serpent daggers in his hands. A dark light flashed past him, and the blade sliced ​​across his shoulder, severing his right arm.

"As expected of a Title Douluo, he managed to dodge the attack even under these circumstances." Bai He was secretly surprised. He chose the Twin Snake Douluo as his first target because the opponent was also an agility-based attacker. If he killed others first, the Twin Snake Douluo would be the most difficult to kill if he was prepared.

"Who are you?" Twin Serpent Douluo roared. That speed was truly astonishing, even faster than when he activated his Weapon Soul True Body. He had already dodged, yet his arm was still severed. Are there really such agile attack masters in this world?

Even Ghost Leopard Douluo of the Spirit Hall doesn't have that kind of speed.

Could it be the Min clan? The Twin Serpent Douluo immediately thought of the White Crane, but no, the White Crane couldn't possibly have such attack power.

Bai He didn't reply. He channeled his soul power into the longsword in his hand. Just now, he was only using the sharpness of the Heavenly Sword to launch a sneak attack. But now, he was going to unleash the true power of the Heavenly Sword.

"Seventh Soul Skill, Twin Serpent True Form!" Twin Serpent Douluo sensed a deadly threat and immediately activated his Weapon Soul True Form. Moreover, his Weapon Soul True Form, like that of Serpent Spear Douluo, had transformed into a beast soul.

The two daggers, each wielded by a snake, transformed into two venomous snakes, one red and one green.

Unconcerned, Bai He pounced forward in a flash, his Heaven-Slaying Divine Sword slicing through the vital points of the two venomous snakes. The snakes were instantly cut in two, their broken daggers clattering to the ground.

"How is this possible!" Twin Serpent Douluo was shocked. The weapon spirit true body beast spirit transformation is a top-grade soul skill of the martial spirit true body type. Who in this world has such powerful attack power? Could it be the Breaking Clan? But where would the Breaking Clan get such speed?

Just as he was in surprise, the Heavenly Slayer had already slashed across his neck, and that wretched human head rolled off the body of the Twin Serpent Douluo.

When the speed of the Agile Clan is combined with the offensive power of the Destroyer Clan, the world's strongest assassin is born.

"Hmph, you shameless scoundrel! Using you as the first sacrifice for the Heaven-Slaying Sword is an insult to the sword!" Bai He coldly cursed.

He fully adhered to Tianlin's teachings: if you're going to kill someone, don't waste time talking, don't say anything harsh, and don't introduce yourself. Just start killing. The later you kill, the more variables there will be. If you really want to curse, do it after you've killed the person. As an assassin, nothing is more important than killing efficiency.

At the same time, screams of agony echoed throughout the camp as centurions, chiliarchs, generals, and even soul masters were taken from their lives by the elusive Shadow Legion.

In an instant, the entire Xingluo camp was thrown into complete chaos.

Chapter 531 Assassination at the Star Luo Chaos Camp

"What happened?" Davis and Zhu Zhuyun had just finished washing up and were about to go to bed when they heard screams outside. They ran out in their pajamas without even changing out of their armor.

"It's terrible, Your Highness! An unseen legion is killing people all over our camp. They're not sparing anyone with even a little bit of rank, from centurion to general!" A soldier hurriedly knelt down and reported anxiously.

"What? What about the three Your Majesties?" Davis roared.

"Lord Fire Dragon and Lord Mad Bull have searched everywhere, but Lord Twin Serpents is nowhere to be found."

"Could His Majesty the Twin Serpents have been murdered?" Davis thought subconsciously.

"Zhuyun, you stay here, I'll go and look around."

"Okay, be careful." Zhu Zhuyun instructed. After Davis left, she returned to her room, changed out of her black gauze nightgown, and knew that there would probably be a tough battle tonight.

Just as she finished changing her clothes, a dark figure suddenly pounced on her.

"Second Soul Skill, Netherworld Hundred Claws!"

Zhu Zhuyun's six soul rings—two yellow, two purple, and two black—appeared, and she immediately used her soul skills to counterattack. Her opponent, however, only used a palm strike imbued with soul power to exchange blows. In the end, Zhu Zhuyun was forced back to the edge of the tent, while the newcomer did not retreat an inch.

Even after using her soul skill, she was still at a disadvantage. It was obvious that the newcomer's power was far superior to Zhu Zhuyun's. If the opponent had also used a soul skill, Zhu Zhuyun would probably be dead by now.

"Zhu Zhuyun, it's been many years. Your skills don't seem to have improved much."

"This voice...you are Zhu Qing? No, it's impossible. Zhu Qing is already dead." Zhu Zhuyun said in disbelief. Back then, Zhu Zhuqing not only severed her own heart meridian, but she also went up and shattered her heart with a palm strike. How could she still be alive?

Zhu Zhuqing removed her mask and looked at Zhu Zhuyun, saying, "You're right, the former Zhu Zhuqing is dead. That life was given to me by your Zhu family, and it's understandable that you want it back. But this new life comes from my two best friends. I'm here today not for revenge, but for two things: first, to settle things with you again; second, to defeat your Xingluo for my friends!"

"Given by a friend?" Zhu Zhuyun was shocked. Ning Rongrong and Jun Tianlin were the ones who took away Zhu Zhuqing's body. They actually had the ability to revive others. No wonder Jun Tianlin made that bet with Davis back then.

Damn it, their Star Luo Empire has been completely outmaneuvered by Jun Tianlin.

But now is not the time to dwell on that. After all, a formidable enemy is at hand. The Zhu Zhuqing of today is completely different from the one of years ago. She is confident and powerful, and is truly a formidable foe.

“If you had used your soul skill just now, you could have killed me,” Zhu Zhuyun said.

"I said I wanted to settle things with you, so I didn't want to resort to sneak attacks. That palm strike just now was merely a test of your strength. But now, you won't have another chance." Zhu Zhuqing released her soul rings: two yellow, two purple, and four black, making her an 80th-level Soul Douluo.

Not long after she returned, Tianlin used Illusory Water Thunder to help her complete her breakthrough, and with the help of her soul ring, she stabilized at level 80.

Zhu Zhuqing is now two major stages stronger than Zhu Zhuyun, and the difference in strength is huge. Killing Zhu Zhuyun would be easy for Zhu Zhuqing. However, apart from Zhu Zhuqing's own reasons, Ning Fengzhi and Tianlin also instructed that everyone else in the Xingluo military camp should be killed if possible, but Davis and Zhu Zhuyun should be captured alive. While Xingluo's family policy can certainly cultivate generations of excellent successors, it also has a major drawback.

In the past, no one dared to offend Xingluo, so this weakness was not exposed.

"Zhu Qing, you've really become strong." Zhu Zhuyun was already extremely panicked inside, but on the surface she still appeared very calm. Her dignity did not allow her to show fear towards the loser from back then.

"Netherworld Slash!"

The two used the same move, and the two Netherworld Blades collided, instantly tearing the entire tent apart with their powerful blade energy.

On the other side, after searching everywhere, Davis finally found the corpse of the Twin Serpent Douluo. His head was separated from his body, his martial soul was shattered, and his death was extremely tragic.

"Damn it! Who did this? How dare they kill a Title Douluo of my Star Luo Empire?" Davis was furious.

At this moment, Fire Dragon Douluo and Mad Bull Douluo arrived and, after examining the situation, said, "Old Snake died from a sneak attack, killed by a sword. The attacker first severed his right arm, then, with overwhelming force, cleaved open his weapon spirit's true form, and finally cut off his head. I suspect it was a powerful expert with a sword martial spirit. In this world, only two people could have accomplished this."

"Sword Dao Chenxin, Sword Lord Jun Tianlin!" Davis blurted out two names, the only two titled Douluo masters wielding swords in the world today, master and disciple.

Fire Dragon Douluo shook his head. "No, it can't be them, master and disciple. Both of them are top-level sword masters. Even if they wanted to kill Old Snake, they wouldn't use a sneak attack. After all, even if Old Snake is fully prepared, he can't withstand a single sword strike from them. They have no reason to ruin their reputation."
