People in Doupo: Unparalleled Talents Actually Bring a System

"Because it has condensed the power of the starry sky, the Three Thousand Flames is equivalent to having an immortal body. So even our Danta can only seal it, but cannot kill it... Whoever obtains the Three Thousand Flames and successfully subdues it will also have an extremely powerful recovery ability. If this kind of fire falls into the hands of the Soul Palace, it will definitely bring great trouble..."

"And I have summoned you here for this very reason. I hope that you can do your best to stop the Soul Palace from obtaining the Three Thousand Flames."

As soon as he finished speaking, Xuan Kongzi stared at the young men in front of him with a fiery gaze, but his focus was still on Xiao Ling.

Just as he had said before, in Xuan Kongzi's opinion, as long as Xiao Ling did not encounter any unexpected situation, then winning the Alchemy Competition championship would be almost a foregone conclusion.

"Don't worry, teacher." Cao Ying spoke first, with a firm look on her face.

"We will definitely stop the Soul Palace's conspiracy." Dan Chen and Song Qing also nodded, their eyes full of determination.

Feeling Xuan Kongzi's gaze, the three of them looked serious, as they were fully aware of the responsibilities they shouldered.

As alchemists of Danta, they would never allow Soul Palace to succeed in this alchemy competition and win the championship. It was not just a victory in a game, but also about the honor and future of Danta.

Xiao Ling also nodded solemnly. Although he did not speak, his attitude clearly expressed his position.

Anyway, Xiao Ling and Soul Palace have an irreconcilable conflict. Even if he doesn't take action against Soul Palace, Soul Palace will definitely come to trouble him. As long as he can embarrass Soul Palace, he is naturally very happy to do it.

Moreover, if he remembered correctly, the person sent by the Soul Palace to participate in the alchemy conference this time was Venerable Mu Gu.

At that time, in the Alchemy Realm, Xiao Ling could directly take action and completely eliminate this Mu Gu Venerable. In this way, when the final round of the Alchemy Conference comes, Mu Gu Venerable will definitely not be able to participate, and the plans of the Soul Palace will naturally be broken without any attack.

Xiao Ling must kill Venerable Mu Gu, not for any other reason, but because Venerable Mu Gu is one of the few people in the world who knows the secret of the Burning Art.

At that time, if Yao Chen had not met by chance and coincidence, then the Burning Art would probably have been taken away by Venerable Mu Gu in advance in the space of the Light and Dark Fighting Emperor.

In order to keep this secret secret forever, it is better for Venerable Mu Gu to die.

After all, if he suddenly had a brainwave one day and reported the matters related to the Burning Art and the Dou Emperor to the higher-ups of the Soul Palace, and then spread the news to the Soul Clan, it would most likely bring great trouble to Xiao Ling.

Seeing the four people's reactions, Xuan Kongzi stroked his beard, a gratified smile appeared on his face, and he said with a smile: "I am relieved that you can be so aware."

After saying that, Xuan Kongzi walked slowly to a desk, where he saw various scrolls piled high. He stretched out his hand and gently fiddled with the scrolls, glancing back and forth as if he was carefully examining them.

Then he carefully selected a few scrolls, raised his arm slightly, and threw them in the direction of Xiao Ling.

A look of doubt appeared on Xiao Ling's face. He slowly raised his palm and circulated his Dou Qi, covering his palm with it. Then he gently pulled the scrolls that were thrown to him and absorbed them into his hand one by one.

He looked down at these brand new scrolls, his eyes full of curiosity, and couldn't help asking:

"Master Xuan, these are..."

"Haha." Xuan Kongzi chuckled, raised his hand slightly and stroked his snow-white beard, a kind smile bloomed on his face, and he said slowly, "These are some of the experiences of alchemy that I have carefully sorted out. In addition, there are several volumes of quite good pill recipes, as well as several methods of practicing soul fighting skills. Just regard them as some benefits for you."

Then, he paused slightly, looked at Xiao Ling meaningfully, and continued, "After all, I asked you to help Danta deal with the Soul Palace, so I will not let you do it in vain without any reward."

Although Xuan Kongzi claimed that these items were some benefits given to Xiao Ling for working for Danta, in fact, his main purpose was undoubtedly to use these things to win over Xiao Ling, so that Xiao Ling and Danta could always maintain a good relationship.

Besides, Xiao Ling was not a member of Danta at all, and he had no obligation to work for Danta. Xuan Kongzi naturally understood this, so he prepared these things.

After hearing this, Xiao Ling raised his eyebrows slightly, and became a little interested. Although Xiao Ling had all these things, this was still a token of the other party's kindness. Moreover, the more the better, there was no harm. After all, who would complain about having too many good things?

Moreover, this also shows Xuan Kongzi's sincerity and Danta's emphasis on him. Xiao Ling naturally would not refuse such good intentions.

"Haha, President Xuankong is thoughtful." Xiao Ling raised the corner of his mouth slightly, revealing a faint smile, and then said, "Xiao Ling will live up to the president's expectations."

Afterwards, Xiao Ling did not check the contents of the scrolls on the spot. He just flipped his palms lightly, and the scrolls were instantly stored in the ring.

When Xuan Kongzi saw Xiao Ling's attitude, he was very satisfied and nodded slightly.

Then, he no longer wanted to let them stay here any longer, nor did he want to continue talking useless nonsense.

"Okay, that's all I have to say today. I won't waste your precious time any more." Xuan Kongzi smiled and glanced at the four people in front of him gently. "Now, the only thing you need to do is to wait patiently for the opening of the Alchemy Conference."

He waved his hand gently, his tone revealing his concern and admonition for the few people: "In seven days, the selection of the Alchemy Competition will begin. During this time, you'd better stay in the Alchemy Tower. In order to compete for the championship of the Alchemy Competition, the Soul Palace may take some unknown means. Therefore, you must be more careful and protect yourself..."

Seeing this, Xiao Ling and the others all nodded, indicating that they understood. After that, they did not stay here any longer. They bowed respectfully and then walked out of the hall with steady steps. Their figures gradually disappeared outside the solemn hall door...

Xuan Kongzi quietly looked at the backs of the four people leaving, and his originally gentle eyes gradually became frosty.

He swung his sleeves violently, turned around and walked towards the depths of the hall. As he walked, he whispered to himself: "Humph, Soul Palace, you are a group of people with ulterior motives. Since you dare to attack Danta during the Dan Conference, then we Danta will naturally not sit idly by and wait for death..."

"Dan Chen, Cao Ying, and Xiao Ling, you can't let me down. The championship of the Alchemy Competition and the Three Thousand Flames must not fall into the hands of the Soul Palace..."

……

The four of them walked out of the hall slowly. For a moment, no one spoke. The atmosphere was a little dull, with only the sound of light footsteps echoing in the air.

Song Qing's eyes were always on Cao Ying. After hesitating for a moment, he couldn't help himself and took the initiative to move forward and try to communicate with Cao Ying.

With a flattering smile on his face, he said softly: "Ying'er, with your alchemy skills, you will definitely shine at this alchemy meeting. I will also protect you well in the alchemy world..."

However, Cao Ying was annoyed by his initiative to talk to her. She frowned slightly, a hint of impatience in her eyes, and glanced at Song Qing coldly without responding to his words.

However, Song Qing seemed not to notice Cao Ying's annoyance and continued to chatter on about irrelevant things, trying to attract Cao Ying's attention.

Cao Ying became more and more annoyed, and her pace unconsciously quickened a bit, trying to get rid of Song Qing's entanglement.

But Song Qing still pestered Cao Ying relentlessly, constantly saying all kinds of flattering words. Cao Ying was really fed up and just wanted to get rid of Song Qing as soon as possible.

She turned her eyes and saw Xiao Ling not far away, and immediately had an idea in her mind.

Cao Ying walked quickly to Xiao Ling, hugged Xiao Ling's arm without hesitation, and said to Xiao Ling with a sweet smile on her face: "Xiao Ling, didn't you say you had something for me? Now that we are free, let's find a place so that I can see that thing."

Xiao Ling was slightly stunned by Cao Ying's sudden action. Before he could react, he felt Song Qing's jealous and angry gaze.

Xiao Ling naturally noticed Song Qing's hostile gaze, but he didn't really care. Seeing Cao Ying like this, Xiao Ling thought for a moment and guessed what this little devil was thinking. She clearly wanted to use herself as a shield to get rid of Song Qing, the lapdog.

Feeling the squeeze and softness coming from his arm, Xiao Ling's heart was slightly moved. He turned his head and glanced at Song Qing who was staring at him, and a faint smile appeared unconsciously at the corner of his mouth.

Immediately, Xiao Ling reached out and grabbed Cao Ying's slender waist, gently holding her in his arms. Cao Ying was startled by Xiao Ling's sudden action and her body trembled slightly. Her cheeks instantly turned red, and she looked so charming and lovely.

Before Cao Ying could react, Xiao Ling put his lips close to her ear and whispered, "Okay, since you want to see it, take me to a deserted place and I'll show it to you."

Dan Chen and Song Qing behind him were both slightly stunned when they saw this scene.

Dan Chen looked at the intimacy of the two and the conversation that made people think a lot. She didn't know what she thought of in her mind. Her pretty face turned slightly red. She shyly looked away and quickly walked away.

Song Qing's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief. He stared at Cao Ying and Xiao Ling hugging each other, and suddenly he was panting. His hands unconsciously clenched into fists, and his eyes were burning with jealousy, as if he wanted to burn Xiao Ling to death.

"Xiao Ling! Cao Ying, you..." Song Qing growled with gritted teeth, but didn't know how to vent his anger.

At this moment, Cao Ying placed her hands gently on Xiao Ling's chest, and her slender waist was tightly wrapped by Xiao Ling's arms. The hot breath from Xiao Ling's words still lingered in her ears. At this moment, Cao Ying's heart was beating like a drum, and her heart was like a little deer running wildly. Her pretty face couldn't help but blush slightly, and she looked so charming and lovely.

Cao Ying lowered her eyes slightly, trying to hide her inner panic. She pretended to be calm and said hesitantly, "Okay... I'll take you to a place where there's no one."

After saying that, Cao Ying bit her lip lightly, her eyes flashing with shyness and nervousness, as well as a hint of barely perceptible joy.

Then, she turned around, took Xiao Ling's hand, and quickly left with Xiao Ling.

However, Xiao Ling was very calm and had no resistance at all. He just let Cao Ying hold his hand and walked with her slowly.

Watching Cao Ying and Xiao Ling walk away, Song Qing felt as if his chest was blocked by a huge rock, making it difficult to breathe. He stared blankly at the direction where the two of them left, and the fire of anger in his eyes burned more and more fiercely...

"Xiao Ling! How dare you... How dare you snatch Cao Ying away from me!" Song Qing growled with gnashing teeth, his eyes full of jealousy and unwillingness. He felt as if he had been abandoned by the whole world, and the frustration in his heart drove him almost crazy.

Song Qing stamped his feet fiercely and turned to walk in another direction. His steps were heavy and messy, and he had nowhere to vent his anger. He secretly vowed to make Xiao Ling pay the price and let everyone know that only he was worthy of Cao Ying.

On the other side, Xiao Ling turned around and looked in the direction he had just visited. Although he could not see the situation over there, he could clearly sense Song Qing's previous reaction.

The corners of Xiao Ling's mouth rose slightly, revealing a faint smile.

He didn't take Song Qing's anger and jealousy to heart. In his opinion, Song Qing was just a clown who didn't know his own limitations.

A cold light flashed in his eyes, and Xiao Ling quickly retracted his gaze and turned his attention back to Cao Ying.

……

Xiao Ling let Cao Ying lead him like this, and the two did not say anything along the way. Soon, after going around in the Dan Tower, Cao Ying led Xiao Ling into a fairly neat room.

The room was silent and there was no one there. The layout was simple and orderly, with a few elegant paintings hanging on the walls, giving people a sense of tranquility.

After entering the room, Cao Ying reluctantly withdrew her delicate hand from Xiao Ling. She turned slightly to face Xiao Ling, with a look of expectation and curiosity on her face, and said,

"The quiet place you requested has been prepared for you. How about it? Can you let me see how a treasure like the Soul Pregnancy Dust is stored in that tattered copper piece?"

When she said this, there was still a slight blush on Cao Ying's face, which was a trace of the intimate behavior just now. It was obvious that she was still a little shy.

At this moment, she was so eager to mention the matter of the pregnancy dust, and she also wanted to change the subject by using another thing to free herself from the embarrassment.

Xiao Ling glanced at Cao Ying calmly, and naturally guessed what she was thinking. He chuckled and shook his head, and very tactfully did not mention the previous words again, but said in a leisurely tone,

"Don't worry, I'll show you right now. Once you've seen my methods, you'll naturally understand."

After saying that, Xiao Ling walked over to a table and chair in the room, pulled out a chair and sat down. Seeing this, Cao Ying also hurried over and sat down next to Xiao Ling.

Xiao Ling stretched out his hand, a white light flashed, and an object appeared on the table. It was the strange copper piece that he had obtained in the trading area not long ago.

Cao Ying's attention was instantly attracted, and she moved forward to take a closer look.

The copper sheet was light yellow in color, and was covered with a lot of green copper rust that was twisted and tangled like earthworms. The copper rust was spreading wildly, and it looked quite strange.

It is precisely because of these copper rusts that some of the original patterns on the copper sheet have been corroded and obscured, making it difficult to see its full picture.

No matter how carefully Cao Ying observed, she could only roughly tell that it was an ancient object. The copper sheet faintly exuded an ancient and distant atmosphere, as if it carried the traces of time, but as for what secrets were hidden in it, she really couldn't tell at all.

This also made Cao Ying more curious. She really couldn't understand how Xiao Ling did it. Just by observing it a little, he could know what was hidden in this copper piece...

Xiao Ling did not pay attention to Cao Ying's curious gaze. He immediately bent his fingers together, and a wisp of Dou Qi quickly condensed at his fingertips. In the blink of an eye, it turned into a tiny Dou Qi needle.

Then, he held the extremely condensed Dou Qi needle firmly, and with full concentration, he carefully inserted it diagonally into the green rust on the surface of the copper sheet.

Xiao Ling had learned a lot about this ancient object during the days when he followed Yao Chen in cultivation, and he naturally knew how to deal with it.

As Xiao Ling continued his movements, the stubborn green rust began to peel off slowly under such delicate provocation, one piece after another, falling like debris and all piling up on the table, revealing part of the pattern that was originally covered by the copper sheet.

After these changes, the copper piece became more and more mysterious, and Cao Ying became more and more fascinated by it, not blinking for fear of missing any important details.

Chapter 434 Shy Cao Ying

Xiao Ling ignored Cao Ying's gaze and focused on the copper sheet in his hand. After spending nearly ten minutes, Xiao Ling finally removed all the annoying green rust from the copper sheet.

At this time, the copper sheet has shed its mottled "outer coat", revealing its original appearance. The patterns on it have also become much clearer, with mysterious lines winding and interweaving, as if telling a story from ancient times, but what specific meaning it contains is still elusive.

Cao Ying came forward, staring at the cleaned copper sheet, looking it up and down, then frowned, with a puzzled look on her face. She couldn't help but ask, "Even if it's cleaned, I can't see anything. What's so special about it?"

"You are so impatient... Just watch me operate it."

Xiao Ling shook his head gently. Although there was some anger in his words, there was no blame in it.

Immediately, he snapped his fingers in an unrestrained manner, and a ball of dark golden flame instantly appeared from his fingers. The flame seemed to have intelligence, and it whistled and swept the copper piece directly in.

In an instant, the flames wrapped the copper sheet tightly, and the scorching heat spread throughout the room. Cao Ying subconsciously stepped back, but her eyes were firmly attracted by the flames summoned by Xiao Ling, and she couldn't take her eyes away.

The dark golden flame leaped and shone, revealing a hot and powerful aura, as if it had the power to burn everything.
