Chapter 95: Suppressing the turmoil. Shui Binger takes the initiative
Dongfang Ziping and his men attacked the camp with various spirit skills, creating a two-meter deep pit around the tent. Dongfang Chitie was the first to notice something was wrong. "Why is it so easy? Oh no, retreat quickly, it's a trick!"
But it was too late. The young geniuses of the Extreme Yin-Yang Leopard Clan pounced on the evil soul master's minions. The two level 81 elders of the clan watched on the side. As for Zhuang Xingyu, he locked onto Dongfang Chitie and Dongfang Ziping and walked towards them slowly.
The fourth elder Dongfang Chitie knew that the other party was not as simple as he thought. He secretly stepped back a few steps, but still pretended to be fierce and laughed: "Good boy, you really have some skills, but you think you can deal with me with just you, funny! Fifth brother, go ahead and kill him."
When Dongfang Ziping saw Zhuang Xingyu was alone, he immediately spewed out corrosive poison mist from his mouth and rushed forward using his seventh soul skill. His mind was now filled with the thought of killing Zhuang Xingyu and obtaining the treasure in order to break through the seal.
Zhuang Xingyu used a lightning five-whip to neutralize his attack and knocked him to the ground.
Then, without waiting for Dongfang Ziping to react, he stepped hard on him and activated the Eight Meridians Divine Spear attached to his soul bone, piercing his meridians and releasing poison. In just a few breaths, Dongfang Ziping was dead.
Zhuang Xingyu would naturally not be polite to these evil soul masters who had lost all conscience and tried to destroy Douluo Continent and who had attacked him.
On the other side, Dongfang Chitie felt that Zhuang Xingyu easily used his fourth soul skill to block Dongfang Ziping's seventh soul skill. He was even more afraid that Zhuang Xingyu would join forces with the two level 81 figures of the Jidao Yin-Yang Leopard Clan to deal with him. Knowing that he could not win, he started running and had already run 500 meters.
While running, he shouted in his heart: Freak, how can he be so strong at just over 11 years old? Young clan leader Dongfang Ninja Ghost is nothing compared to him.
But would Zhuang Xingyu let him escape right under his nose? He flew through the air and teleported behind Dongfang Chitie. He transformed his soul power into a sword and activated his soul bone skill, the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms. With just one palm, he blasted the dragon away.
Dongfang Chitie quickly mobilized his limited soul power, used his eighth soul skill, and launched a full-strength attack. However, Zhuang Xingyu used his merit field and activated the innate ice and fire Yin-Yang flame to easily resolve the attack.
The soul power of these evil soul masters is dark and evil. When facing the innate Yin-Yang Flame of Ice and Fire, which is extremely strong and masculine, their power is directly weakened by 1/3.
Zhuang Xingyu then destroyed his soul power and cut off his limbs, intending to take him back and torture him severely. This was the first high-ranking Eastern Divine Religion figure that he had captured alive. By using his identity, he might be able to gain some unexpected gains.
Dongfang Chitie regretted it very much at this moment. If he had known that the opponent was so strong, he would not have come. He begged for mercy quickly: "Sir, please spare me, please spare me! This is all a misunderstanding. It was the bad idea of the guy who attacked you first! It has nothing to do with me."
"I am the fourth elder of the Eastern Divine Religion. My mission is to hunt living creatures. The second elder is in charge of directing this plan. He is a level 91 Titled Douluo. I am responsible for hunting in the western part of the Heaven Dou Empire, and the second elder and his men are responsible for hunting along the southern coast of the Xing Luo Empire."
"The predecessor of the Eastern Divine Religion was the Eastern Family. We believe in the Black Demon God. Our family is located in a giant valley called the Eastern Holy Valley, east of the border between the two empires. It is now guarded by the Great Elder, who is a Level 92 Titled Douluo. All of our family members are evil spirit masters, and our family is plotting a plan to devour all the lives on the continent."
"Besides that, I know a lot of valuable information and I have a lot of hidden treasures. As long as you spare my life, I will tell you everything. I can also be your undercover agent."
Although Dongfang Chitie originally believed that Zhuang Xingyu must have some protective power in the dark, he thought that it was not at the level of a Titled Douluo and could be dealt with.
After all, in the eyes of most people, there is no need to dispatch Titled Douluo to deal with a group of spirit masters who only dare to jump around in remote mountain villages! Dongfang Rengui, the young patriarch of his Dongfang family, went out to perform dangerous tasks, and there were only two level 86 secret guards around him.
Dongfang Chitie originally wanted to instigate Dongfang Ziping to take the lead, and when both sides were defeated, he would kill everyone around him, take all the treasures on Zhuang Xingyu's body, and then hide in the deep sea under an assumed name, fly away and never come back.
After all, his affair with the wife of the Dongfang clan leader was about to be exposed, so he took the initiative to request to follow the second elder to hunt creatures all over the continent in order to seek a chance to escape safely.
Zhuang Xingyu knew all these things and was too lazy to listen to his barking, so he directly blocked Dongfang Chitie's mouth, nose, ears and eyes, leaving him in peace.
Zhuang Xingyu was speechless. He was a Level 87 Soul Douluo after all. How could you be so spineless? You had already confessed almost everything before the interrogation.
But then again, the Eastern Divine Religion's control over its subordinates shouldn't be so weak! Otherwise, their identities would have been known to all the major forces long ago. Zhuang Xingyu was very confused about this.
In fact, Zhuang Xingyu forgot one thing, and that is himself!
The evil soul master's peculiarity of cultivating through devouring the lives of others destined him to be incompatible with outsiders, and the Dongfang family is very good at brainwashing.
More importantly, due to the influence of demonic energy and demon species, there is really no traitor in the Dongfang family who has leaked family information to the outside world. Even if Dongfang Chitie wanted to escape from the Dongfang family, he never thought of betraying the family or the Black Demon God, he just wanted to fly away.
But he met Zhuang Xingyu, who practiced Tai Chi Xuanqing Dao and possessed the Hongmeng Liangtian Ruler martial spirit. He was also affected by the field of merit, and the control over the demonic energy and demon species loosened, which led to the leakage of so many secrets.
After dealing with Dongfang Chitie and Dongfang Ziping, Zhuang Xingyu observed the battles of the others but did not take action. This was a test for them. Besides, he couldn't do everything himself! Zhuang Xingyu was not their babysitter, but their commander.
The Extreme Yin-Yang Leopard Clan was taken care of by two level 81 core elders, but the other side had no Soul Douluo at the moment, so their side had an overwhelming advantage, and no one was seriously injured or sacrificed.
Carefully feeling the soul power of these evil soul masters, Zhuang Xingyu thought to himself:
"What a disgusting aura! These evil soul masters actually have so many wronged souls and blood-killing powers. Fortunately, they don't know how to use this energy and can only use the soul ring skills roughly. Otherwise, it would take a lot of effort to deal with them."
"The combat power of evil soul masters is generally weaker than those of their peers. Just like the two strong attack soul masters just now, one is level 87 and the other is level 86, but their combat power is only equivalent to that of ordinary soul masters at level 86 and 85. They are only in their fifties, but their hair is already gray. It seems that absorbing the vitality of others to practice has a high price."
An hour later, the battle ended, and the Extreme Yin Yang Leopard Clan won a great victory. After the defeat, the remaining evil soul masters unexpectedly chose to self-destruct without any exception, leaving behind bursts of blood mist.
"Yes, everyone fought bravely. Clean up the battlefield and take a rest. After daybreak, we will go to other places to pursue the evil soul master. Do not spread the truth about my true strength, or I will punish you severely! Come, keep this prisoner under strict guard."
"Yes!"×50
Shui Bing'er, Ma Shan, Jun Fengyang and other people from affiliated forces who did not know Zhuang Xingyu's true strength were all shocked when they saw Zhuang Xingyu easily kill two Soul Douluos. They sighed that the Young Supreme was worthy of being the Young Supreme and was just strong.
In the next two days, the family and its affiliated forces dispatched several Soul Douluo teams, and Zhuang Xingyu led his men to fight in the western part of the Tiandou Empire and the northwestern part of the Xingluo Empire, killing many waves of evil soul masters.
The evil soul masters in charge of these areas, Dongfang Chitie and Dongfang Ziping, have already been dealt with. Therefore, the strongest evil soul masters encountered later are only Soul Saints, and Zhuang Xingyu does not need to take action at all.
The western part of the Tiandou Empire and the northwestern part of the Xingluo Empire subsequently stabilized.
The reputation of the Mission Pavilion also took this opportunity to gain popularity. In these areas, the prestige of the Extreme Yin Yang Leopard Clan has surpassed the two empires and the Spirit Hall. It can be predicted that when the Extreme Yin Yang Leopard Clan unifies the Douluo Continent in the future, these areas will take the initiative to respond.
Zhuang Xingyu also figured out from Dongfang Chitie why others couldn't discover that the Eastern Divine Cult was the evil soul masters who came out to hunt down living beings. This was because: the Black Demon God passed down a soul skill he created himself!
When the evil soul master's true identity is revealed, his aura will change completely, and his martial soul will turn into a ball of black mist. He can ignore the external situation and self-destruct at any time!
In addition, these evil soul masters specifically target remote mountain villages, wrapping themselves tightly in black robes. Once caught, they will activate their demonic energy and demon seeds to self-destruct, turning into a cloud of blood mist and dissipating. [Unless they are within the scope of Zhuang Xingyu's merit domain, they will honestly confess everything.]
It is difficult for outsiders to connect with Eastern religions.
At first, in other areas, the major forces did not send troops to kill the evil soul masters, and secretly mocked the Jidao Yin-Yang Leopard Clan for wasting a lot of financial and material resources.
The Tiandou Empire's move of sending people to burn the corpses to prevent the spread of any toxins was already considered a good thing. The Xingluo Empire and the Spirit Hall did not react at all.
Because there were only about 5 poor people, and the size of 10 to villages, and they were remote mountain villages, and they could not pay much tax in a year. It was harmless to them, and many fallen soul masters had done this before, and they would just let it go after a few days.
In order to prevent these poor people without soul power from entering the city and seizing resources, they strictly control the city gates and prohibit them from entering.
But what they didn't expect was that nearly a month had passed and not only had things not calmed down, except for the areas where the Extreme Yin-Yang Leopard Clan had sent troops to clear out the evil soul masters, the noise was getting louder and louder, and it had already affected the taxes and labor of the two empires and the Spirit Hall, and food prices were skyrocketing. The mountain villages without soul masters dared not go out to farm, but gathered together to take refuge.
In the villages that were a little more united and daring, hundreds of people, nearly a thousand of them, fled to Beiyuan with their families. It was no use calling to the heavens or the earth, so it was better to go to Beiyuan than to sit there and wait to be killed.
Because there are extreme Yin Yang Leopards killing evil spirit masters in large numbers, it is safe, and the welfare benefits are good. Once you go there, as long as you are not lazy and work hard, you will definitely be more than ten times stronger than you are now. Even many civilians and merchants in the wealthier villages and cities have gradually migrated to the North Plains controlled by the extreme Yin Yang Leopards.
In just over half a month, more than 40 people poured into Beiyuan, and many villages were still on the road with more than million people coming, and the scale is still expanding.
The Jidao Yin-Yang Leopard Tribe welcomed this very much. They gave them food and allowed them to freely cultivate the uncultivated land (not the Soul Beast Forest), and set a one-year observation period. As long as they were not spies or villains, they could become true Beiyuan residents after one year and enjoy the welfare benefits of Beiyuan residents.
As a result, the other major forces could not sit still. They did not care about the death of ten thousand poor people, but now more than three million people fled, and many of them were from key tax-paying areas. They would not agree, as these were all their blood bags!
Once all these poor people run away, who will carry sedan chairs, grow crops, and work like slaves for the nobles of the two empires and the Spirit Hall? Should we let those nobles do the work themselves?
Therefore, these forces set up checkpoints to intercept the poor and civilians heading to Beiyuan.
Then he learned from the Extreme Yin-Yang Leopard Clan and sent troops to wipe out the evil soul masters, who temporarily went into hiding. However, traces of evil soul masters would occasionally reappear.
After a cleanup, the other major forces also discovered that these guys who slaughtered human beings were actually from the same force, and there were even Title Douluo and multiple Soul Douluo among them. They were highly organized, and once they were caught, they exploded into a ball of blood mist, and nothing was found.
Just like the death soldiers, it is very difficult to train death soldiers. It takes a lot of resources and it is difficult to train them on a large scale. They were all puzzled and could not guess the reason.
There are only a few in the entire Douluo Continent who have such strength and can launch a massacre across the entire continent at the same time.
The major forces began to meet, and each produced strong evidence that it was not their own doing. After all, in everyone's opinion, there was no benefit in killing the poor across the continent.
The Eastern Divine Religion directly stated that all major forces could go into the cult to search. It must be said that the control of demon species and demonic energy, as well as the self-created soul skills bestowed by the Black Demon God, were really too effective, and the Eastern Divine Religion also got rid of suspicion.
The extreme Yin-Yang Leopard Clan has not exposed them yet, and keeping them for the time being will do more good than harm.
Emperor Xing Luo made a guess: "Could it be the fallen soul master from the Slaughter City?"
The representative of the Spirit Hall said that it was impossible. "Before coming here, I went to investigate outside the Slaughter City. The Fallen Spirit Masters did not go out."
Each major force sent people to investigate outside the City of Slaughter and found that the entrances and exits were the same as usual and the boundaries had not been broken.
All the major forces then jointly declared that this incident was committed by a force that had never appeared before, and everyone named it: Evil Soul Master.
……
Zhuang Xingyu continued his training with the soul master team, and fought several soul fighting competitions in a larger city along the way. However, Zhuang Xingyu did not participate in it as it was not challenging at all.
Zhuang Xingyu gathered everyone together and praised them, "Well done, everyone has performed very well during this period of training, and the teamwork has become more and more tacit. To reward everyone, there will be no training tonight and tomorrow. Everyone can relax in this city. I will pay for all the expenses, and we will return to the family the day after tomorrow."
"Brother Yu is so awesome! Long live Brother Yu!"
"Brother Yu, I want to eat all the delicious food in this city!"
"Brother Yu, I think..."
……
Zhuang Xingyu readily agreed: "Haha, sure, it's all right, you don't have to save me any money."
Everyone happily dispersed and went about their business.
Zhuang Xingyu and Zi Han jointly comprehended the mystery of the Yin-Yang law.
"Lift your hips!"
Zi Han rolled her eyes at Zhuang Xingyu and said, "You just like to do these weird things."
Having said that, Keren cooperated and adjusted well.
"Han'er, you are so beautiful!"
"Who is more beautiful, me or Shui Bing'er?"
"Ah, of course you are more beautiful, Han'er! You are the most beautiful in my heart. Shui Bing'er is like a snow lotus on a high mountain, cold and elegant, pure and clean. But compared to you, Han'er, she is far inferior. Han'er, you are graceful and elegant, no matter what your demeanor is, it touches my heart directly. I like every inch of your skin and soul."
For this kind of question, one must say that the person in front of him is more beautiful. What's more, in Zhuang Xingyu's heart, Zi Han is indeed more important. After all, they have been childhood sweethearts and have been in love for so many years.
Zi Han turned over and exchanged positions with Zhuang Xingyu.
"You're such a chatterbox. I see you, um, these days, ah... talking and laughing with Shui Bing'er. You look very happy! Gently, move a little to the right. If you really like her, just take her. I have no objection."
Zi Han took the initiative to make the connection. She believed that she was as important as his parents in Zhuang Xingyu's heart. She also understood that a hero like Zhuang Xingyu could not have only one woman in his life. Just like now, she could not resist.
"Really? Thank you, Han'er. I promise you that no matter what, you are always the boss among them!"
The two sides cooperated tacitly and deepened their understanding of the law of yin and yang.
The next day.
Zhuang Xingyu looked at Shui Bing'er who knocked on his door, "Well, Miss Bing'er, why are you here?"
Shui Binger came in with a measuring tape and said with a blushing face:
"I found a tailor shop in the city that does very good work. The styles are very novel. Brother Yu, you have been very hard at work in training us these days. I want to make you a piece of clothing by myself to express my gratitude, but I don't know the size of your waist and other parts, so I came to measure you."
"You're welcome. It's my job. Then measure it!" Zhuang Xingyu opened his arms and let him measure with the tape measure.
Shui Bing'er immediately bent down, picked up the tape measure and carefully measured her waist circumference, shoulder width, and foot size.
Suddenly, Shui Bing'er tripped, whether intentionally or unintentionally, and fell directly on Zhuang Xingyu. Fortunately, Zhuang Xingyu was there to cushion her, so she did not fall.
Shui Bing'er felt a unique fragrance coming from her nose. She couldn't tell what the specific smell was, but it was very comfortable and she didn't want to get up for a long time. It was the body odor of Zhuang Xingyu, similar to that of Yang Guo.
"Bing'er, don't you use a tape measure to measure the size when you make clothes? I have an extraordinary talent, why don't you measure it yourself!"
"Yeah." Shui Bing'er agreed softly with a breath as sweet as orchid.
