Chapter 223 - Chapter 209: High-Spirited Yet Slightly Timid Dugu Bo

At the same time, Azure Dragon Douluo, who had earlier been suppressed by the Nether White Tiger formed by Dai Wei, saw his opponent fall and likewise hefted his staff to go support Xiao Hei.

Unlike Xiao Hei, though, when he noticed down on the wilderness the Heavenly Wolf Douluo who had been heavily injured earlier by the great Lord, Azure Dragon Douluo's sixth soul ring lit up and he thrust his staff at the gravely wounded Heavenly Wolf.

Boom—

A violent roar sounded, and the Star Luo Empire lost yet another nine-ring Titled Douluo.

Although Azure Dragon had used only a roughly twenty-thousand-year strong-attack soul skill, Heavenly Wolf had already been badly wounded. With his Avatar broken and suffering martial soul backlash, he could not even use a defensive soul skill, so Azure Dragon cleanly took another head.

On Douluo Continent, because Titled Douluo are relatively scarce, few experts have a record of slaying a Titled Douluo, and those who have slain two are even rarer.

On this metric alone, the level-94 Azure Dragon had already far surpassed Chen Xin and Gu Rong, who are much stronger than he is.

After all, while those two had killed Titled-level Nether White Tigers, they had no kill record against proper Titled Douluo.

On the way to support the battlefield.

Sensing that three somewhat unusual yet terrifying auras had suddenly appeared in the distant battlefield, and that the powerful auras present were vanishing one after another, She Long paused, then said to Qian Renxue, "Young Master, I don't think we need to go support."

To be honest, She Long thought he had already done his utmost to overestimate the strength of this youngster Chu Chengzhou, yet he had still underestimated him.

Barring surprises, those three unusual auras that had just appeared should be Chu Chengzhou's summons.

As for their strength... She Long had never seen a hundred-thousand-year soul beast, but he had seen plenty of ninety-thousand-year ones.

Yet the aura of an ordinary ninety-thousand-year soul beast was far from comparable to these three.

These three summons likely were no weaker than hundred-thousand-year soul beasts, and fought better besides—enough to match an ordinary level-96 Titled Douluo, or even be stronger, like hundred-thousand-year beasts.

Don't be fooled by how many experts Star Luo sent. They had thirteen Titled-level forces, but most were under the strength of an ordinary level-95 Titled Douluo. Under the iron fists of three hundred-thousand-year soul beasts, they would not fare well—let alone with that crafty youngster Chu Chengzhou in play.

The instant those three auras appeared, four Nether White Tiger auras immediately vanished. She Long would stake his manhood on it: the youngster didn't play by the rules and definitely pulled a sneak attack.

Hearing this, Qian Renxue, who had likewise sensed the distant battle, couldn't help stopping and looking expressionlessly at She Long.

At this moment, she felt a bit awkward. She had thought that with so many enemies, Chu Chengzhou would be in mortal danger—but the situation had reversed in short order.

Barring surprises, the ones who needed to think about survival now were not Chu Chengzhou, but the Star Luo experts still alive.

Worthy of being the consort chosen by this young lady—no, by this empress.

"Young Master, shall we go back and calmly finish the plan?"

Seeing her expressionless face, She Long tested the waters.

"Very well."

Qian Renxue nodded, abandoning the idea of going to support Chu Chengzhou and preparing to return to Heaven Dou City to carry out the original plan.

Just then, a figure flew over from the rear.

"Hm? Who are you two?"

With such a huge commotion outside the city, Dugu Bo was about to go watch the fun. But not long after leaving Heaven Dou City, he saw a blonde woman and a Titled Douluo.

Although She Long had not entered Martial Soul Avatar to display his soul rings, his aura was not weak, and he could fly, so he was undoubtedly a Titled Douluo.

The blonde woman, however, had a much lower soul power level, only seven-ring Soul Sage. Her aura was unusual though, most likely a genius who could challenge above her rank.

"Four wings? What martial soul is that?"

Seeing the two pairs of wings behind Qian Renxue after she entered martial soul state, Dugu Bo was inwardly puzzled.

In that moment, Dugu Bo revealed his poor grasp of book learning.

In the continent's spirit master world, the Six-Winged Angel of Spirit Hall's angel clan is quite famous.

Those who know understand that the Six-Winged Angel is the most powerful martial soul on the continent, bar none.

Few spirit masters know, however, that an angel spirit master's wings only reach three pairs when they advance to nine-ring Titled Douluo and enter martial soul state.

"Dugu Bo?"

Seeing him, She Long said in surprise.

With so many experts fighting outside the city, and this old poison's strength so poor, he should have stayed put in Heaven Dou. He dared come join the fun? Not afraid he'll become the fun?

"You know me? Sneaking around like that—speak. Where are you from?"

Seeing that this lanky fellow seemed to recognize him, Dugu Bo lifted a brow and questioned bluntly.

This was Heaven Dou territory. Aside from those under Heaven Dou and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, in theory there should be no Titled Douluo from other forces.

A stranger of Titled Douluo level suddenly popping up—whether he was here to do bad things was unclear, but he certainly wasn't here for anything good.

Sizing him up and judging that this lanky fellow's soul power was around level 92 at most, and confirming that he, a level-95 Titled Douluo, could easily handle him, the high-spirited Dugu Bo decided to make an example of She Long.

The commotion over there was so great it seemed several Titled Douluo had died. At this moment, Dugu Bo didn't quite dare butt in blindly.

Only alive could he be a revered Titled Douluo. Once he fell, he would be nothing.

But since he had already set out, if he slunk straight back, wouldn't that make him look too timid?

Conveniently, he had run into a Titled Douluo likely up to no good. Capturing him would at least be worthy of Emperor Xue Ye's pay.

Dugu Bo: I wasn't being timid. I was apprehending a suspicious person.

With that thought, Dugu Bo entered Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor martial soul state. His soul rings lit up, and a mass of dark green Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor poison mist swept toward She Long and Qian Renxue.

"Bold! You little Jade Phosphor Dou—uh, why is your aura this strong?"

Seeing that Dugu Bo neither ran nor kept his distance, but even dared make a move, She Long was furious. He opened his mouth to mock and was about to teach him a lesson—only to suddenly realize that Dugu Bo's aura seemed far above his own.
