"Of course!"
Almost without hesitation, Tuoba Xi answered Ling Yuan's question.
Anyone protected by a Title Douluo of the Spirit Hall is a red seed of the Spirit Hall. They will shoulder the heavy responsibility of the Spirit Hall in the future.
The Spirit Hall attaches great importance to the cultivation of its descendants, and even goes so far as to have extremely prestigious Title Douluos secretly protect their safety in order to safeguard them.
Each generation of promising young talents in the Spirit Hall is carefully nurtured by the Spirit Hall.
Historically, the probability of successive generations of revolutionary leaders dying midway through their careers is extremely low.
Douluo Continent is a continent where power comes from might.
Whoever has the strongest fist holds the truth.
Anyone who dares to harm the Red Seed will be taught a lesson by the Title Douluo protecting it. If anyone dares to kill a Title Douluo protecting the Red Seed, the Spirit Hall will declare war on them.
Similar things have happened in history.
Someone once tried to harm the Red Seeds by relying on their strength and connections, even attempting to relocate the Title Douluo protecting them. In the end, that person killed the Title Douluo. Ultimately, the Spirit Hall declared war on them and destroyed that person and their faction.
From then on, no one dared to touch the Red Seed. Even if they did, they could only suffer in silence when the Title Douluo protecting him intervened.
Perhaps it is precisely because of this tradition of the Spirit Hall that each generation has a Title Douluo-level powerhouse presiding over the Spirit Hall. The Spirit Hall has grown stronger day by day.
There are always exceptions.
There are always some forces that, relying on their strength, dare to recklessly provoke the Spirit Hall.
For example, the swordsman Chen Xin and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect just now.
Of course, the three sects are of the same lineage.
Tai Tan was the patriarch of the Power Clan, one of the four major affiliated clans of the former Clear Sky Sect. Ning Fengzhi had met him a few times ten years ago. With a friend in trouble, Ning Fengzhi, being in the capital, couldn't afford to stand idly by; doing so would ruin his public image. Instead, stepping forward and making his presence felt would benefit both him and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Suddenly, Tuoba Xi froze, his pupils widening to a size larger than copper coins.
His aura was extremely chaotic; due to his anger, his soul power was highly unstable, like a bomb about to explode at any moment.
Eight spirit rings rose from beneath his feet, two yellow, two purple, and four black.
Chen Xin's heart skipped a beat, and he thought to himself, "Level 89!"
With just one level away, Tuoba Xi could reach level 90 and become a titled Douluo revered by the world.
As someone who had been through it all, Chen Xin could sense that Tuoba Xi's soul power could break through to level ninety at any moment.
A pure white light emanated from Tuoba Xi as he charged toward Tai Tan.
Dragon scales began to appear on Tuoba Xi's body. A phantom, energy-like, white-armored earth dragon appeared behind him.
"You dare kill my grandson, you old gorilla? You'd better pay with your life!"
At first, Tuoba Xi's mind didn't process it.
It wasn't until Tuoba Xi realized that the person Lingyuan was protecting was Tuoba Yan that he realized the person the Li clan wanted to kill was his own grandson.
Tuoba Xijiu, a member of the Soul Hunter Brigade, possesses the fierce and valiant qualities of a general.
As a commander, he usually cultivated this kind of temperament internally. But now, his anger erupted, and the murderous aura he unleashed covered the surrounding ground with a thin layer of frost.
In an instant, the surroundings became bitterly cold.
This is not ordinary cold; it is a cold that penetrates directly into the soul.
Tai Tan's pupils contracted slightly. He had long heard that Tuoba Xi, besides being loyal to the Spirit Hall, was also a madman. If he went mad, he would dare to wield the King-Beating Staff bestowed upon him by Qian Daoliu and teach the former Pope Qian Xunji a lesson on behalf of Qian Daoliu.
During the rush, Tuoba Xi's seventh spirit ring pulsed upwards, transforming into a white-armored earth dragon tens of meters long. With each step it took, the ground trembled violently, leaving a deep, sunken footprint.
Some obstacles, such as walls and artificial hills, were directly smashed and shattered by his running.
Faced with an attack from a Soul Master of the same level, Tai Tan dared not be careless and reached out with both hands to touch the massive head of the White Armored Earth Dragon.
With a loud bang, Tai Tan was slid across the ground, crashing into four rooms before regaining its balance.
Tai Tan underestimated Tuoba Xi's anger.
In his rage, Tuoba Xi's power was not diminished in the slightest; it was even greater than usual.
Tuoba Xi wasn't just trying to save face; he genuinely intended to kill.
Knock knock knock.
After knocking back the Tai Tan, Tuoba Xi, transformed into a white-armored earth dragon, did not stop attacking. With a swing of its tail, it destroyed three houses and swept towards the injured Tai Tan on the ground.
Tai Tan was unwilling to accept this.
If he hadn't been injured by Ling Yuan, Tai Tan was confident he could fight Tuoba Xi, who was at the same level. He even felt he could defeat Tuoba Xi, who was also at the Soul Douluo level.
Just as the dragon's tail, as large as a mountain, swept in with immense force, the Seven Kill Sword descended from the sky.
"stop!"
Sword Daochenxin's body seemed to lose gravity, and he landed at a steady speed on the hilt of the Seven Kill Sword stuck in the ground.
The burst of energy easily intercepted the dragon's tail, whose realm was one level lower than Chen Xin's.
Tuoba Xi did not give up, roaring, "Chen Xin, don't think I'm really afraid of you!"
Roaring, Tuoba Xi swung his dragon tail again, trying to knock away Chen Xin, who was protecting Tai Tan.
Chen Xin blinked her eyes.
"Seven Kill Domain!"
A silver light emanated from his body and spread outwards.
Suddenly, Tuoba Xi, who was no match for Chen Xin, was suppressed by the Seven Kill Domain.
When the dragon's tail reached within ten meters of the Seven Kill Sword, it could not advance an inch.
A trickle of blood flowed from the dragon's tail.
The martial spirit and the soul master are one.
Especially in the state of Martial Soul True Body, if the Martial Soul True Body is injured, the Soul Master's main body will also suffer the same damage.
Chen Xin remained expressionless, showing no regard for Tuoba Xi, whose cultivation level was one level higher than his. He calmly stated, "Tuoba Xi, with me here, you won't be able to touch Tai Tan today!"
The atmosphere in the arena was tense and confrontational.
Even when facing Chen Xin, Tuoba Xi's emotions did not change much.
Both sides continued their standoff.
"grandfather!"
Tuoba Yan walked to Tuoba Xi's side and softly called out to the latter's Martial Soul True Form: "You and Tai Tan are Soul Douluo of the same realm. Even if you want to harm her, you must let him fully recover and heal his injuries before you come."
Tuoba Xi scoffed, "He wants to kill you, and you're still speaking up for him?"
Tuoba Xi shook his head. "You misunderstood me. Killing an injured dog isn't honorable. It'll be much more satisfying to let him fully recover and heal before killing him!"
Tuoba Xi still refused to give up. He only had one grandson, Tuoba Yan.
This time is different from before.
Previously, Tai Nuo had been bullying the weak, but he did not gain any advantage over Tuoba Yan. Instead, Tai Nuo suffered a loss in the subsequent clash.
Tuoba Xi did not intervene in the previous two incidents because Tai Tan did not show up, and especially because Tuoba Yan made Tai Nuo lose face.
Things are different now.
Tai Nuo didn't want a friendly spar; he wanted to take Tuoba Yan's life.
This is absolutely intolerable.
Tuoba Yan could see that Chen Xin's attitude was very firm, and at the same time, he could see that his grandfather could not possibly kill Tai Tan.
Unless, unless he gives his talisman to his grandfather to use. Perhaps only his grandfather would have the ability to fight Chen Xin.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Tuoba Yan could not possibly give the talisman to his grandfather.
This was a secret known only to him and his grandfather, and it concerned his personal safety.
