Chapter 8 Departure
Chapter 8 Departure
"You two, it's time for us to leave!" Ji Wudao suddenly appeared behind Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo.
He had finished his competition with Chen Xin. While he was done, things weren't going well here. They were actually entangled by a shame to the Title Douluo, a Soul Douluo, and a Soul Saint, and both sides were evenly matched!
Ji Wudao swung a sword qi, separating Dragon Snake Duo, who were merging their martial souls. The latter looked at Ji Wudao in disbelief and said, "How could you..."
When did they become so weak? Their martial soul fusion skill could even threaten Chrysanthemum Douluo. This Eighth Worship of the Spirit Hall had just broken their martial soul fusion with one strike.
Ji Wudao looked at Dragon Snake Duo, then turned to Dugu Bo with a smile. "A mere martial soul fusion skill can't compete with a Super Douluo. Did they both deceive you?"
With that said, Ji Wudao grabbed Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluo and left. They disappeared into the sky in the blink of an eye.
"So powerful! Is this the Eighth Worship of the Spirit Hall? Truly unmatched by ordinary Title Douluo!" Dugu Bo said with lingering fear. Just now should have been the closest he'd come to death.
His Serpent Jade Emperor Martial Soul sensed the aura of death, extremely powerful. It even hinted to him, the wielder of this martial soul, to run away as if one second slower would mean death here.
In the sky, Ji Wudao carried Chrysanthemum Ghost Douluo and flew away quickly. At this point, he had already depleted most of his soul power. Chen Xin, assisted by Ning Fengzhi, was indeed formidable.
From the moment they arrived at the Title Douluo until now, it was the first time Ji Wudao had used his full strength. It showed just how important the assistance of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul was.
If not for the assistance of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul, his strongest attack, while unable to kill Chen Xin outright, would have been enough to leave the opponent on the brink of death!
On the other side, the siege had already ended. After all, Xue Qinghe was the Crown Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire. He quickly took control of the situation and directed everyone to move the boulders to restore the road.
Qian Renxue looked at Tang San and whispered, "Brother Ji actually failed. This guy is really lucky!"
Seeing Tang San completely unscathed, Qian Renxue knew that Ji Wudao's assassination plan had failed. However, she attributed the failure to another person. If it weren't for her, Brother Ji's assassination plan wouldn't have failed.
The people she sent had made all the participating contestants vigilant, so Brother Ji's assassination had failed!
At least, that's what Qian Renxue thought.
At this moment, Dragon Snake Duo, Dugu Bo, Chen Xin, and Ning Fengzhi approached.
Tang San's group also noticed and walked over, with Ning Rongrong asking first, "Grandpa Sword, how did it go with the guy who wanted to kill Third Brother? Did you kill him?"
Chen Xin glanced at his tattered clothes, and Ning Fengzhi also looked heavy. Ning Rongrong sensed that something was wrong and asked, "Father, did Grandpa Sword not kill that bad guy?"
Everyone's eyes instantly focused on Ning Fengzhi. Especially Tang San's group of seven. Dragon Snake Duo and Dugu Bo sighed. If the opponent had really died at Chen Xin's hands, he wouldn't have taken Chrysanthemum Ghost Douluo away.
"Let me explain." Chen Xin spoke up and looked at Ning Rongrong gently. "Rongrong, Grandpa Sword disappointed you. Even with Fengzhi assisting me, I wasn't the opponent of the other party. I think if the other party hadn't had enough fun, I'm afraid Grandpa Sword wouldn't have made it back today."
"Ah!" Tang San's group was shocked.
Tang San asked, "Senior Sword Douluo, was that person really that powerful? You're a level 96 Super Douluo, and with Lord Ning's assistance, why weren't you his match?"
Chen Xin was already the most powerful Title Douluo Tang San knew of, yet the other party was even stronger than him. Furthermore, even with Lord Ning's assistance, he still lost. What level was the opponent? Level 97 or level 98?
Tang San felt as if he had escaped death. Even Senior Sword Douluo wasn't the opponent of the other party. If it weren't for Senior Sword Douluo's timely arrival, he would probably be dead already!
Ning Rongrong also chimed in, saying, "Yeah, Grandpa Sword, is the opponent really that strong? And with father's assistance, are they truly that formidable?"
Ning Rongrong felt a bit of fear. After all, she had faced the other party directly, without any reservations. The main reason for this boldness was the presence of Grandpa Sword, Grandpa Bone, and her father, the Soul Saint-level support.
But what she heard was that even with Grandpa Sword's and father's assistance, they were still no match for the opponent.
Chen Xin nodded, not denying it, and said, "That's right, I'm not his match. If it weren't for Fengzhi's assistance, I might have died at his hands!"
He understood deeply; the opponent's strength was overwhelming. Without Ning Fengzhi's assistance, he might have truly perished at the hands of the opponent, or at least suffered severe injuries.
Ning Fengzhi interrupted at this moment, saying, "That's enough, Rongrong, why are you so thoughtless? Your Grandpa Sword just went through a big battle and needs rest. Stop asking questions."
After all, losing to someone wasn't honorable, especially considering they were elders of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Everyone nodded without further inquiry, while Ning Fengzhi helped Chen Xin sit on a nearby rock to rest.
"Fengzhi, I'm a bit puzzled. Why would the Spirit Hall join forces with the Hall of Worship? If they really unite, the whole continent would be in danger," Chen Xin asked.
In his understanding, although the Spirit Hall was powerful, internally it was divided. The Hall of Worship and the Spirit Hall were like two administrative units, akin to two governments within one country, neither fully accepting the authority of the other.
The fact that the Hall of Worship and the Spirit Hall were not on good terms was one thing, but if they united, it would be a disaster for the entire continent!
Ning Fengzhi took out a water bag from his soul tool and handed it to Chen Xin, saying, "Uncle Sword, I think the Spirit Hall hasn't truly united internally. The target of these eight worshippers is Tang San, while Chrysanthemum Douluo wants to target all the participating contestants. I believe they haven't truly united but are somehow coincidentally converging due to a certain plan."
Ning Fengzhi's analysis was very reasonable, and indeed, it was the reality. Chrysanthemum Douluo almost wanted to avoid clashing with Ji Wudao, but unexpectedly, the latter acted ahead of time, creating the illusion of the Spirit Hall and the Hall of Worship joining forces.
Chen Xin nodded, took a sip of water, and said in a deep voice, "It would be good if it's really like that. I'm afraid that if the Hall of Worship and the Pope Hall join forces, it will be a disaster for us!"
There were many Titled Douluos in the Spirit Hall, as the head of a sect and as elder guardians, both of them understood this.
As for the Hall of Worship, currently, they had eight great worshippers, each of whom was at least a ninety-sixth level Super Douluo. If they had any intentions toward the continent, the current landscape would have been changed long ago. If the Spirit Hall had intentions toward the continent, unless the top three sects united, they wouldn't have the power to oppose them! The top three sects stand together!
As for the Hall of Worship, Bibi Dong was a Super Douluo, and the extent of her strength was currently unknown. The main point was that she had a group of elders, each of whom was a Titled Douluo! (End of this chapter)
