Douluo Continent: Taking Tang San as a disciple, with a ten-thousand-fold return for teaching him.

"Is it convenient to relay messages? I don't want to meet them only to find out they're dead."

"There are special signal flares, but I don't think they'll be very effective. If we can hit them, we'll take them down immediately; if we can't, they won't survive."

“It seems our mission is more important,” Chen Luo said.

Flander's lips curled into a slight smile: "That's right, let's stake out the place where evil spirit masters are least likely to appear."

……

City Lord's Mansion.

study.

A burly middle-aged man leaned back in his chair, his eyes slightly closed, toying with three black spheres the size of walnuts in his hand.

On the desk in front of him, various documents and books were scattered haphazardly, making the entire desk look like a mess.

"Dong dong dong..."

A knock suddenly sounded on the door, followed by a hoarse voice from outside the study: "Master, the young master's illness has relapsed."

The middle-aged man did not open his eyes, but frowned slightly and said in a low voice, "I understand."

The faint footsteps faded into the distance, and the middle-aged man suddenly tightened his grip on the black spheres, shattering all three spheres instantly.

The middle-aged man slowly released his grip, tilting his palm slightly, and the spherical fragments fell rapidly to the ground.

"Bang bang bang..."

The spherical fragments easily dented the floor, making a heavy sound as they fell. Cracks continued to spread, and with the final spherical fragment falling, the entire floor, including the surrounding floorboards, was rendered unusable.

The middle-aged man opened his eyes, revealing gray, cloudy pupils. His gaze was calm, yet it exuded an indescribable sense of authority.

"It's all my fault..."

With a soft sigh, the middle-aged man stood up and left the study.

……

The back gate of the city lord's mansion.

Chen Luo and Flander walked straight in without encountering anyone along the way, not even a basic guard.

Walking slowly along the path in the city lord's mansion, Chen Luo and Flander soon arrived in front of a dimly lit room.

A woman's voice, choked with sobs, came from inside the room, filled with resentment and anger: "Yun Hongyi, if it weren't for your so-called justice, would my son have become like this?"

"You have no idea how much pain he suffers every day..."

The woman was already sobbing uncontrollably: "He...he told me every day to kill him..."

"Perhaps death is truly a relief for him," a deep, middle-aged man's voice rang out.

The woman seemed to have lost her temper, almost roaring, "What kind of father are you? You actually thought about killing your own son!"

"I'm doing this for his own good..."

"For his own good?"

The woman sneered: "When have you ever thought about him?"

"Ugh……"

"All you ever do is sigh. What else can you do? His condition has stabilized. You should leave now. I don't want to see you!"

Footsteps sounded, followed by the sound of a door opening. A tall, burly middle-aged man stepped out and carefully closed the door behind him.

"Let's go, they won't be interested in failures."

Yun Hongyi spoke slowly, then walked forward.

Chen Luo and Flander nodded slightly and followed behind Yun Hongyi.

The three walked in silence throughout the city lord's mansion, one in front and two behind, until they arrived at a pavilion and went straight to the top floor.

"I don't have any news yet, but I think the same as you. The chances of them coming to me seem the smallest, but in fact, they are the most likely."

Yun Hongyi placed his hands on the railing, gazing at the distant lights of countless homes, and said in a deep voice, "I hope they all come."

"It's safe to talk here."

Flanders nodded: "It seems everything is under your control."

Yun Hongyi: "I guess so..."

Chen Luo was completely confused and couldn't sort out his thoughts for a while.

"boom!!!"

Before he could think about it, Chen Luo was drawn to a loud explosion behind him.

Looking back, flames were shooting into the sky from the location of the explosion, which seemed to be exactly the same location as the dimly lit room where they had first stayed.

Neither Flander nor Yun Hongyi looked back, as if they had anticipated this situation.

"Can you really do it?" Flander asked.

Yun Hongyi said, "Of course, it's already a miracle that I've been able to endure until now."

"They deserve to die."

Yun Hongyi suddenly exerted force with his hands on the railing, and the entire railing was lifted open by him, and then he plunged down.

Chen Luo was slightly taken aback by this sudden scene, until he saw dazzling soul rings slowly rising from Yun Hongyi's body.

Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, seven in total!

Yun Hongyi's body was covered with thick gray feathers, his ten fingers were bent into claws, and huge wings grew on his back. Just as he was about to land, his wings flapped gently, and he flew towards the source of the explosion at an extremely fast speed.

"gone!"

Flander also activated his Martial Soul, and the seven Soul Rings, which were also the best match, slowly emerged, exuding the oppressive feeling of a Soul Saint. A pair of huge wings stretched out from his back, his whole body was covered with a layer of feathers, and the pupils in his orange-yellow eyes stood upright.

Chen Luo said, "You go first, don't worry about me, I can keep up."

Flanders nodded without hesitation, flapped his wings, and left.

Chen Luo swiftly activated his martial soul, and the Golden Luo Three Cannons appeared. He leaped onto the cannons and sat on them. A golden light flashed past, chasing after the two people ahead.

Chapter 55 Blood Bird

"Help!"

"Don't kill me!!"

"Help!!!"

Above the ruins of the house, cries of agony and pleas for help rang out one after another. Flames flickered in the thick smoke, and fine streaks of blood spread outwards, devouring all living things around them.

The servants were desperately trying to escape, but their speed was no match for the pursuit of the blood threads. Anyone touched by the blood threads would be instantly drained of their life force, dying a gruesome death.

"The Lord of the City is here!"

"Lord of the City, save me!!"

Two servants in their thirties were running for their lives, with Bloodshot close behind. At their current speed, they would probably become new corpses in less than ten seconds.

A shadow suddenly appeared in mid-air, followed by a powerful wind blade that fell from the sky, severing the blood vessels and saving the two servants.

The blood vessels were severed, and as if releasing some kind of signal, even more blood vessels converged towards this side in an instant.

At this moment, a tall figure landed steadily, with wings on his back, his body covered in gray feathers, his ten fingers bent into claws, and seven dazzling soul rings surrounding his body. It was Yun Hongyi.

Yun Hongyi simply raised his hand, and a gust of wind arose, easily extinguishing the rapidly approaching blood vessels.

"Hurry up and get going, don't just stand there!"

The two servants stared blankly at Yun Hongyi, their expressions of terror easing slightly, until Yun Hongyi reminded them in a deep voice, at which point they snapped out of their daze and continued their escape.

Flander arrived just then and successfully rescued another servant. Chen Luo, riding the Golden Luo Sanpao, was the last to arrive. He observed from a distance and dealt with some of the bloodstains.

The blood streaks were still searching for other innocent people, but they did not attack Chen Luo and his group. Moreover, because of Chen Luo and his group's arrival, they seemed to have restrained themselves and stopped spreading outwards.

"Come out! We've come this far, do you still want to hide in the shadows?"

Yun Hongyi roared angrily, raising his right hand and thrusting it forward with force. His third soul ring suddenly lit up, and a gust of wind suddenly rose in front of him, blowing away the thick smoke and revealing the true nature of what was inside.

It was a huge sphere completely covered in blood streaks, three meters in diameter, with dozens of blood streaks embedded in the ground, making it appear extremely stable.

After the sphere appeared, all the blood vessels quickly converged backward, and a young man covered in blood-red feathers slowly emerged.

Yellow, yellow, purple, purple, and black—five spirit rings in total—encircled the youth's body. Blood vessels were clearly visible on each spirit ring. Despite having only five spirit rings, the youth exuded a powerful aura no less than that of a Spirit Saint. Even when facing two Spirit Saints, Flander and Yun Hongyi, he was not at a disadvantage.

The blood vessels had disappeared, transforming into a pair of crimson wings behind the young man.

The young man's eyes were also bloodshot, and he was looking coldly at Chen Luo and his group. His gaze finally landed on Yun Hongyi, and he slowly spoke.

"Lord of the City, it's been a long time."

Yun Hongyi said coldly, "You've ended up looking like this after all."

The young man smiled and said, "I don't want to either, but I'm suffering so much every day. Lord City Lord, you may never understand that feeling in your entire life."

"Rebel!"

"Hahahaha, I didn't do anything wrong, so why should I be the one suffering?"

The young man laughed loudly, but as he spoke, his face turned extremely ugly, and his expression became filled with resentment: "Do you have the right to talk to me like that, Father?"

"I've become like this today..."

"It's all because of you!!!"

"Pfft!"

Before the young man could finish speaking, Yun Hongyi had already appeared in front of him, his left hand piercing through the young man's chest.

"Hehe... Hehehehehe..."

The young man chuckled softly, then burst into maniacal laughter, slowly turning his head with a chilling smile: "You're still the same as before, never hesitating to make a move."

"Whoosh!"

After the young man finished speaking, he turned into a pool of blood and crashed to the ground. The moment he touched the ground, the bright red blood turned crimson and wrapped around Yun Hongyi's body at an extremely fast speed.

The young man reappeared, now behind Yun Hongyi, his right hand slightly raised, then slammed down towards Yun Hongyi's head.
