West of the city, in Zhu Zhuqing's small courtyard.
"Tianya, are you sure this is it?" Bu Le pointed at the courtyard in front of him, puzzled.
This was the wealthy district of Soto City; any courtyard here was worth tens of thousands. Even just renting it would cost dozens of gold soul coins a month.
Similarly, the people living here were all rich and powerful. There were also guards patrolling regularly, responsible for maintaining order in the wealthy district.
"Bu Le, what do we do?" the thin man asked.
Bu Le clenched his fists, his eyes bloodshot. "Old Goose, Tianya, I must avenge this! Are you still my brothers?"
The thin man frowned in displeasure. "What are you saying, kid? If we brothers join forces, we can even hold our own against a typical Soul Emperor. What are we afraid of!"
The thin man sniffed the air, a greedy look on his face. "That little wench is in the courtyard right now, alone. Let's attack!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the three of them summoned their martial souls and rushed towards the courtyard.
At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing was practicing her soul skills in the small courtyard. After returning from the forest, she usually stayed at the academy, only returning occasionally.
Lu Feng, on the other hand, spent most of his time in the Soul Arena. Without the wealthy woman in the courtyard, he felt somewhat lonely living alone.
"Who goes there!"
Zhu Zhuqing's eyes sharpened, and alarm bells rang in her mind.
She suddenly felt a surge of powerful soul energy rushing towards her, the intense pressure making her hair stand on end.
Zhu Zhuqing's first soul ring shone, and she quickly rolled to the side.
The next moment, a huge pink dome covered the spot where she had just been standing.
"It's him!"
Zhu Zhuqing recognized the lewd man who had attacked her.
At the same time, her eyes caught sight of the tall, muscular man beside her. Seeing the five soul rings shining on his body, a strong sense of crisis surged in Zhu Zhuqing's heart.
"Soul King! Retreat!"
Zhu Zhuqing moved like lightning, quickly retreating.
"Such speed!" Bu Le exclaimed in surprise, clearly shocked by Zhu Zhuqing's reaction and skill.
Immediately, a sly smile curled at the corner of his lips.
Seeing Bu Le's displeased smile, Zhu Zhuqing felt a sudden, ominous premonition.
The next moment, she felt a surge of powerful soul energy from behind her, a force so strong and violent that she couldn't resist it at all.
Zhu Zhuqing only had time to glance back before losing consciousness.
A trace of terror remained in her eyes; she hadn't expected that the other party had another Soul King lurking in the shadows.
"Hahaha!"
Bu Le grinned, revealing a set of disgusting yellow teeth, as he looked at the unconscious Zhu Zhuqing.
Then, the three of them carried Zhu Zhuqing directly into the room.
Bu Le took out a small medicine bottle from his pocket and gently shook it near Zhu Zhuqing's nose, releasing the aroma.
Soon, Zhu Zhuqing's face flushed rapidly, she let out a faint moan, and her body began to writhe unconsciously.
A faint, sweet fragrance emanated from Zhu Zhuqing's body.
"Wow~, still a virgin, top-notch! Top-notch!"
Looking at Zhu Zhuqing's rosy cheeks and the hint of youthful innocence, the skinny man's smile was filled with wickedness and lewdness.
With that, the skinny man reached for his belt and began to undo his pants. "Little beauty, your brother's here."
Seeing this, Bu Le immediately grabbed the skinny man's hand. "Tianya, what are you doing?
Don't you know how to give way to your older brother?" Saying this, Bu Le pulled Tianya away and quickly stripped off his shirt.
Tianya immediately became unhappy, yelling, "Bu Le, if it weren't for me today, you'd still be starving in that brothel!"
"Pah! I even got beaten up!" Bu Le shouted back.
While the two were arguing, the tall, muscular man on the other side had already taken off his pants.
"Damn it, old goose! You're playing dirty!"
Bu Le shouted, then he and the skinny man rushed forward and pinned the tall, muscular man to the ground.
The group argued for a while, none willing to concede.
For these old lechers, a young girl like Zhu Zhuqing was a fatal temptation.
"Hmph, stop arguing, the old rules," Tianya said seriously, stroking his mustache.
The other two also stopped laughing.
They formed a circle, hands behind their backs, their expressions grave. Then, the three exchanged glances and simultaneously extended their right hands.
"Rock, paper, scissors!"
"Rock, paper, scissors!"
"Damn it, Bu Le, why do you keep choosing scissors? If you had chosen paper, Tianya would be eliminated!"
A new round began.
Similarly, the three each made a gesture.
"Again!" Bu Le shouted.
This time, the situation changed.
"Rock, paper, scissors! How come there's one more?"
Bu Le counted again carefully; there were indeed four gestures.
"Haha, although there are still three gestures, we have two scissors, so we win!" Bu Le laughed loudly, making a scissor gesture.
"Smack!" Tianya slapped Bule on the head. "Damn it, you didn't even know someone sneaked in, what are you laughing at!"
Immediately, Tianya summoned his martial soul and shouted at the suddenly appearing Lu Feng, "Who are you!"
At the same time, Bule and Lao'e also summoned their martial souls, their auras menacing.
"Huh? Let's continue, you guys aren't playing anymore? Then I'll go first." Lu Feng crossed his arms and said teasingly.
"Hmph, where did this brat come from, looking for death!"
Tianya's eyes narrowed, his third soul ring flashed, and he rushed towards Lu Feng.
Lu Feng remained calm and composed, neither dodging nor avoiding.
The next moment, Tianya, who was halfway there, suddenly trembled, his martial soul possession state instantly broken. His body, propelled by inertia, rushed directly in front of Lu Feng.
He slid down and knelt down.
"Tianya, what are you doing, you brat!" Bule shouted upon seeing this.
He had just taken a step when he felt a strong sense of weakness wash over him. His legs gave way, and he collapsed to the ground.
At the same time, the tall, imposing goose also fell to the ground with a thud.
"You poisoned him!" Bu Le said, his fingers trembling.
The next moment, Bu Le's pupils shrank to a single point.
Lu Feng raised his right foot and stomped hard on Tianya's head, like stepping on a cannon.
"Bang!"
Instantly, blood splattered everywhere, turning the entire room filthy.
"Huff~"
"Huff~"
Bu Le gasped for breath.
Looking at Lu Feng slowly approaching, his face turned deathly pale, and his forehead was covered in large beads of sweat.
Bu Le was a notorious thug in Soto City, having been beaten up many times. But most of the time, he was satisfied after the other party had been beaten.
Looking at Lu Feng, Bu Le's fear reached its peak.
Where did this ruthless person come from?
Without a word, they'd stomp on someone's head.
"Great hero, spare me! I was forced into this by these two bastards!" Bu Le pleaded.
At this moment, Lu Feng's face was smeared with a few drops of blood, but he ignored it, even grinning.
At this moment, Bu Le felt as if an invisible hand was choking him, making even the simplest breath impossible.
"Bang!" A crisp sound.
Bu Le died peacefully.
"Bang!" Another crisp sound, and the tall, burly man joined his brother.
Lu Feng looked at the three headless corpses on the ground, his eyes devoid of any emotion.
These people dared to touch his rich woman; such a peaceful death was too good for them.
Tonight, Lu Feng had originally planned to spend the night in the Soul Arena. But Luo Wupao told him that his rich woman had returned.
So, Lu Feng rushed back.
He hadn't expected to encounter something like this. If he wasn't mistaken, these three should be the Bu Le trio from the original story.
Lu Feng took out a bottle from his soul tool, uncorked it, and sprinkled the powder inside onto the corpse.
"Sizzle, sizzle, sizzle!"
A sickeningly corrosive sound immediately filled the air.
Bone-dissolving powder was an essential item for Lu Feng, whether at home or traveling.
The drug he had used earlier, capable of instantly incapacitating a Soul King, was concocted using poisonous herbs from the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well.
For Soul Masters who had cultivated to the Soul Sect or Soul King levels, ordinary poisons were useless.
Soul Masters of this level were rare; they could easily hold a mid-level position in any organization.
Smelling the stench, Lu Feng frowned slightly.
He took out several more bottles from his soul tool and sprinkled them on the ground.
Then, Lu Feng opened the window, circulated his soul power, and a gentle breeze wafted, scattering the powder throughout the room.
Gradually, a faint rose fragrance filled the room.
"Hmm~"
A groan reached Lu Feng's ears.
He turned his head and, by the dim moonlight, looked towards the bed.
At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing's body twisted unconsciously. Her bodice had been pulled open, revealing her fair skin.
Instantly, Lu Feng felt as if he had been struck by a sledgehammer, his mind going blank for a moment.
No, two sledgehammers!
"Don't look, don't look!"
Lu Feng rubbed his eyes, then blinked hard, and a pale purple light quietly appeared.
"This is the big cat I remember!"
"Hoo," Lu Feng took a deep breath, calming himself.
He walked to the bedside, gently taking Zhu Zhuqing's hand. A warm, luminous power flowed up her arm and into her body.
Seemingly suddenly touched, Zhu Zhuqing instinctively began to resist. With a strength she didn't know she possessed, she twisted her body, pinning Lu Feng beneath her.
"Bang!" Lu Feng's body crashed heavily to the ground.
He was about to get up when he suddenly saw two mountains rushing towards him.
The next moment, Lu Feng felt his face flush red, as if he were trapped in a crevice, even breathing becoming difficult.
After a long while, Lu Feng finally regained consciousness from the intense pressure.
He tried to sit up, but seemingly due to prolonged oxygen deprivation, he felt his hands were weak.
"Hoo,"
Lu Feng took a deep breath; the alluring scent almost made him transform into a werewolf.
With great effort, Lu Feng freed his right hand and gently stroked Zhu Zhuqing's back. A warm energy flowed slowly into her body through his palm.
Gradually, he realized something was wrong.
Having lived two lives, Lu Feng was no naive newbie. Before transmigrating to Douluo Continent, he and his girlfriend had enjoyed the ocean of life.
But now, Lu Feng felt his body was somewhat unsteady, completely lacking strength.
Even circulating his soul power was difficult.
"Hmm?" Lu Feng's thoughts raced, an unknown emotion rising within him.
He freed his right hand, trying to push Zhu Zhuqing away.
However, something incredible happened.
Lu Feng discovered that Zhu Zhuqing's body seemed to become ethereal. His hand passed directly through her body.
Lu Feng looked at his right hand, which had now also become transparent.
"Meow!"
In the void, Lu Feng seemed to hear a cat's meow.
At some point, Zhu Zhuqing also opened her eyes. However, her eyes still held a hint of drowsiness.
The next moment, black and white light burst forth from the two of them. A powerful energy fluctuation rippled outwards, instantly illuminating the area as if it were daytime.
"What's that? Go see!"
Patrolling soldiers on the street noticed the anomaly and rushed to the courtyard.
When they arrived, accompanied by a deafening roar, a gigantic white tiger appeared before them.
The white tiger was completely transparent, with white fur and black stripes, and its eyes emitted beams of golden light. The leading soldier met its gaze and immediately felt an overwhelming pressure bearing down on him.
Standing before the white tiger, compared to its ten-meter-long, over three-meter-tall form, they looked like a group of ants.
"Damn it! Where did this soul beast come from!"
The soldiers dropped their weapons, wishing they had more legs, and turned to flee for their lives.
For them, patrolling the streets was just their duty, and protecting the area was merely a way to make a living.
Why risk their lives for a few dozen silver soul coins a month?
"Huh? What am I doing?" Lu Feng exclaimed in surprise.
However, when the White Tiger acted, a deafening roar erupted.
A powerful energy wave shot from the White Tiger's mouth, and with a deafening boom, a five-story building in the distance was razed to the ground.
"Damn it, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" The White
Tiger frantically waved its paws, and three more wind blades shot out. The street surface was instantly cleaved into several cracks several meters deep.
At this moment, the residents were also awakened by the enormous sound and fled the area.
Then, a Soul King soldier rushed out.
His martial soul was a greatsword, with two yellow, two purple, and one black rings, all five lighting up simultaneously. His entire body was bathed in intense golden light, and the sword energy emanating from his greatsword slicing through the air with a hissing sound.
"You beast, cease your arrogance!"
the Greatsword Soul Master roared, swinging his greatsword and slashing fiercely at the White Tiger's throat.
The next moment,
the White Tiger casually swung his hand, and the Greatsword Soul Master was sent flying like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily into a small building.
"Requesting backup!!"
Amidst the ruins, the Greatsword Soul Master trembled as he raised his right hand, then immediately fainted.
"Damn it, how do I dispel this? Forget it, I'd better hide first."
The White Tiger let out another deafening roar, then leaped away and disappeared into the town.
