Douluo Continent: Sword Named Star, Slaying Gods to Prove the Dao

But when he saw the woman in front of the two middle-aged soul masters, he was slightly taken aback.

Who else could this woman be but Liu Erlong?

It has been more than four years, almost five years, since the two last met in Tiandou City.

At this moment, Liu Erlong seemed to have her soul power sealed, and looked no different from an ordinary person.

Does Liu Erlong have such a situation in the original novel?

Observing his expression, he seemed very calm and confident, so he must have a backup plan!

Ning Xingchen looked around and, sure enough, spotted something amiss not far away.

Damn... isn't that Yu Xiaogang, an old acquaintance?

Why is that kid here too?

Not going to hang out at Yichun Pavilion anymore?

Next to Yu Xiaogang was a middle-aged man named Ying, who wore glasses and looked to be two or three years older than Zhao Wuji.

Flanders?

Or did they manage to get these three together?

Yu Xiaogang recognized him, so Ning Xingchen silently put on the mask he had prepared beforehand. He wanted to see what these three were up to.

Are they here to rescue people?

However, the combined strength of the three of them was simply no match for the Iron Wolf Mercenary Group.

However, the Soul Masters of the Iron Wolf Mercenary Group are truly despicable, having harmed countless innocent women.

Most of the Soul Masters' rooms contained one or more ordinary women, and some were even low-ranking female Soul Masters.

"Boss Fu, the intelligence is correct. All the experts from the Iron Wolf Mercenary Group are gone. Only two Soul Emperors and some Soul Kings and Soul Sects remain."

"But our chances of winning are still slim," Yu Xiaogang said in a low voice.

"It's alright. Don't forget we also invited the Qingyu Mercenary Group. They have four Soul Kings and eight Soul Masters. Together with us, that's enough."

"That's good, Boss Fu. The guy from the Qingyu Mercenary Group inside is called Liu Erlong. He should be alright, right?" Yu Xiaogang asked Flander with a worried expression.

"It's alright. I heard from Qingyu that this Liu Erlong is extremely strong. Don't underestimate her just because her soul power is only level 48. She can handle some Soul Kings without any problem."

“Her soul power is sealed off by herself, but it seems like it could be opened at any time. Let’s wait for Qingyu and the others to arrive,” Flander said.

“Okay, I understand,” Yu Xiaogang said.

Looking back a year and a half ago, he had been consumed by self-blame ever since he met Bibi Dong.

However, his self-blame was only temporary, and he still visited Yichun Pavilion from time to time.

The frequency has decreased slightly, mainly because I don't have many gold soul coins on me.

Until six months ago, his gold soul coins were completely used up.

Unable to pay his bill, he was kicked out by the people of Yichun Pavilion. He eventually met Flander, who was passing by, and Flander, a Soul Master, paid him with gold Soul Coins.

From then on, he followed Flander. Looking at Flander's tall figure, Yu Xiaogang's eyes became somewhat dazed.

But when Flander turned to look at him, Yu Xiaogang's eyes returned to normal.

"Good brother, you must be careful during the battle. You don't need to fight; just focus on rescuing those innocent women." Flander patted Yu Xiaogang on the shoulder.

"Boss Fu, I understand, you're so kind!" Yu Xiaogang whispered.

Seeing this scene almost made Ning Xingchen burst out laughing on the spot.

The way Yu Xiaogang looked at Flander just now was absolutely priceless.

A short while later, the two men who were holding Liu Erlong in the room came out.

Seeing the young and beautiful Liu Erlong, yet unable to harm her, he was now burning with anger and desperately needed someone to vent his frustration.

At the same time, the door to the room where Liu Erlong was being held suddenly opened.

A long sword pierced through the heart of the Soul King.

Who else could this person be but Liu Erlong?

"Such a sharp weapon is still the fastest at killing people," Liu Erlong said, putting away his longsword.

Liu Erlong used an ordinary longsword to commemorate a figure from her memory.

At the same time, Flander, who was in the corner, immediately made his move.

At this point, Flander was already a Soul Emperor with a Soul Power of Level 64.

This Soul Emperor, who joined forces with Liu Erlong to attack the Iron Wolf Mercenary Group from both sides.

Yu Xiaogang, who was in the corner, launched a signal flare into the sky.

At the foot of the three cliffs, several young female soul masters revealed their wings and flew upwards.

Zhao Wuji below was somewhat puzzled. Could it be that something had happened to Ning Xingchen?

So he moved as well, preparing to attack the Soul Masters at the mountain pass.

In an instant, battles broke out both on the mountaintop and at the foot of the mountain.

"The Iron Wolf Mercenary Group killed our sisters. This is a rare opportunity. Today we must kill all the people they left in their lair."

All the Soul Masters who fell from the sky were female; those who could not fly were carried up by the Soul Masters who could.

Just like Ning Xingchen, they came from the sky, instead of attacking directly from the foot of the mountain.

Their highest-ranking Soul King had a Soul Power of Level 59, while their lowest-ranking Soul Master was Level 43.

After landing, they formed pairs and broke down doors to kill the Iron Wolf Mercenary Soul Masters who were not yet ready for battle.

Meanwhile, on Flanders and Liu Erlong's side...

Their opponent's soul power was only level 62. Flander and Liu Erlong quickly gained the upper hand with their combined attack, and it was only a matter of time before they killed him.

Ning Xingchen realized that he didn't seem to need to lift a finger anymore.

There should be some good stuff inside the Iron Wolf Mercenary Group.

So Ning Xingchen sneaked into the main hall of the Iron Wolf Mercenary Group alone.

The Starry Eye's extremely strong penetrating vision allowed him to see clearly inside the room, even inside the stone walls.

"found it."

Ning Xingchen arrived at a wall behind the main hall.

He concentrated the power of the stars into his fist, and then punched out with all his might. With a loud bang, he blasted open the nearly 20-centimeter-thick granite wall.

To describe it in four words: simple and brutal.

Is it the Iron Wolf Mercenary Group's treasure trove?

After entering, Ning Xingchen looked around and saw more than thirty boxes, all filled with gold soul coins and precious jewelry.

He doesn't lack gold soul coins, but he also doesn't mind having too many.

With a wave of his hand, he stored all the boxes into his spatial soul guide.

Oh, there are medicinal herbs too?

On a shelf, there were several boxes. When Ning Xingchen opened one, he found a 10,000-year-old He Shou Wu (Polygonum multiflorum).

It's a bit of a pity that this medicinal herb wasn't preserved very well, and at least 30% of its medicinal efficacy has been lost.

Although its medicinal efficacy has diminished, it is still a medicinal herb that has been around for thousands of years.

There were six boxes left, but Ning Xingchen didn't open them all; instead, he put them into his soul tool.

Inside the treasure vault were gold soul coins, some special soul tools, medicinal herbs, weapons, and many fine wines.

After collecting everything, Ning Xingchen did not find any soul bones.

"Weren't they supposed to be a team that went to the Star Dou Great Forest specifically to hunt soul beasts and obtain soul bones? They didn't even have a single soul bone?"

Ning Xingchen activated his Starry Eye once again, carefully observing everything within his field of vision.

Finally, a clue was found in a mural.

The stone wall was carved with a lifelike iron wolf. Ning Xingchen walked over and reached out to poke at the wolf's teeth.

The main problem was that the wolf fang was too abrupt. After the wolf fang was moved, a section of the floor tile below the wall suddenly collapsed, and then a stone pillar slowly rose up.

On the stone pillar, there is an iron box that is about half a meter long and thirty centimeters wide.

This should contain valuable items from the Iron Wolf Mercenary Group, and might even contain soul bones.

Just as Ning Xingchen was about to open it, she heard a sound outside; someone had arrived.

"Someone has opened the treasure vault! Help!"

The Iron Wolf mercenary group consistently outnumbered their opponents, allowing them to check the vault for damage after the battle.

They immediately discovered that one of the walls of the treasure vault had been broken open.

Without time to check, Ning Xingchen first put the box into her soul tool, and at the same time, the person who was shouting outside also came in.

Seeing this, Ning Xingchen picked up an ordinary longsword and slashed out.

The newcomer was merely a level 46 Soul Master, and Ning Xingchen sent him away from this chaotic world with just one sword strike.

When Ning Xingchen came out, a level 57 Soul King and two Soul Masters were already in front of him.

Just then, screams rang out from outside. The screams were not from a man, but from a woman.

"Do you really think my Iron Wolf Mercenary Group is without anyone?"

"Brothers, go easy on them. These women from the Qingyu Mercenary Group surrendered willingly, so we must treat them well."

Ning Xingchen whispered, "Damn, are we surrounded?"

"Haha, how foolish. Our boss already knew that the Qingyu Mercenary Group was planning to take action while our boss was away, all for revenge."

"So the eldest brother decided to play along and hid nearby without returning. He even sent out two other Soul Saints, waiting for this day."

"I can't believe these silly women actually fell for it. They're really brainless, haha!"

As he spoke, the Soul King couldn't help but sip his saliva, seemingly recalling fond memories from the past.
