Chapter 384: Feihuang's Acting: The Siege by Six Title Douluo

~8 min read 1,589 words

"Flying General, what is that you are holding in your hand?" Lingyuan did not answer, but instead looked at the Ten Thousand Year Ginseng King in Nan Feihuang's hand and asked, "I recall that in the letter you wrote to our Young Master, you said you had a gift for her. Is this it?"

"Yes, this thing is called the Ten Thousand Year Ginseng King. It is one of the Immortal Grade Herbs and the greatest national treasure of my Gu Lei Kingdom," Feihuang said with a smile.

"A national treasure! Are you truly willing to give such a treasure to our Young Master?" Title Douluo Lingyuan was astonished; such heaven-sent treasures are not easily obtained.

Especially on the Douluo Continent, there are not many treasures in the world. For a Spirit Master, there are generally only Spirit Rings and soul bones, and Immortal Grade Herbs, which are different from these two categories, are absolutely priceless treasures.

Feihuang said directly, "Of course I am willing. Your Excellency Lingyuan, I am not afraid of you laughing at me, but actually, I have confessed to Xue Jie twice, yet I was rejected both times. Today, she took the initiative to ask me to meet, and was even willing to meet my mother. I feel this is a good opportunity, so I am willing to take all my secrets and treasures to confess to her a third time." Feihuang's eyes shone, as if he were full of anticipation for a beautiful future.

Having fooled too many people, his acting skills had naturally improved.

In any case, Title Douluo Lingyuan could not tell that he was actually acting; she only felt that this man was indeed deeply in love with Qian Renxue.

"Secrets?" Lingyuan caught the keyword in Nan Feihuang's words. It seemed that besides treasures, he had something else. It was fortunate she had not acted rashly just now, otherwise, she might have lost some important intelligence.

"Yes, Your Excellency Lingyuan. I had already made up my mind to confess today, but it is a pity that Xue Jie had matters to attend to and could not come. But even so, I do not intend to give up, because after years of bitter cultivation, I believe I am already worthy of Xue Jie," Nan Feihuang said proudly. "I have also consumed an Immortal Herb, my level has broken through to Spirit Douluo, and I am willing to take the Immortal Herb to propose marriage to the Offering Hall. From now on, my Gu Lei Kingdom will follow the lead of the Spirit Hall. Please, Your Excellency Lingyuan, convey these words of mine to my Xue Jie."

Feihuang did not hide anything; in any case, once the fighting started later, his strength would not be able to be concealed anyway.

"Spirit... Spirit Douluo!" Lingyuan looked at Nan Feihuang with a shocked expression. This kid was actually already a Spirit Douluo? How old was he? Eighteen at most, right?

Thinking back to when she was eighteen, what was she doing? It seemed she was just preparing to participate in the Soul Master Elite Tournament with her classmates.

Was the effect of an Immortal Herb really that great? If it were true, then this man was too infatuated. Such a precious treasure, he was not only willing to share it with Qian Renxue, but he was also practically using the entire Gu Lei Kingdom as a dowry.

This was a love-struck fool who wanted the beauty and not the empire.

Lingyuan suddenly envied Qian Renxue very much; why couldn't she have met such a man when she was young?

He was handsome, infatuated, powerful, had a noble status, and his potential was shocking. An eighteen-year-old Spirit Douluo—this was no longer a matter of being destined for a Title Douluo position; it was no different from telling her directly that the youth in front of her was a future Limit Douluo.

"What a pity!" Lingyuan sighed inwardly.

She had to admit that if Bibi Dong had not interfered and insisted on Nan Feihuang's life, he would absolutely have been the best match for Qian Renxue.

Both of them had the strongest aptitude and potential in the world, and in the future, they might have the possibility of joining hands to become gods.

Nan Feihuang was even willing to give away the entire Gu Lei Kingdom, so the Spirit Hall could use this as a foundation to first absorb the Tianshuang Principality, which had marital ties with Gu Lei, and then slowly encroach upon the other major kingdoms.

This would bring many conveniences to the subsequent plans of the Spirit Hall.

Lingyuan revealed a smile, "Flying General, you are truly sincere. If the Young Master knew your thoughts, she would definitely be very happy."

The tone she used to say this was very sincere, because she truly thought so. This man's deep affection and persistence—who wouldn't be bewildered by it? He didn't give up after two failed confessions, his third dowry was the most generous in history, and he himself was so outstanding. If she were to put herself in Qian Renxue's position, she estimated she would also desperately put on a wedding dress and marry Nan Feihuang.

"Many thanks for your praise, Your Excellency. By the way, Your Excellency, you haven't told me the words Xue Jie asked you to convey to me yet?" Nan Feihuang asked curiously. He was getting a bit anxious. He had chatted with Lingyuan for so long, and he had finished all the acting he needed to do, so why wasn't she moving? Shouldn't she be finding an opportunity to ambush him, steal the Immortal Herb, and then go to surround and kill his mother?

Why was she spacing out at a time like this? This woman was too irresponsible in her work. Lingyuan's expression changed; she seemed to have just fallen into Nan Feihuang's trap of gentleness and almost forgot the main task.

It was too dangerous; this man was too dangerous. No wonder the Young Master couldn't resist.

After chatting for a while, even she, an old woman of over seventy, felt her heart flutter.

However, Lingyuan was a Title Douluo after all, so she quickly steadied her mind. Remembering the main task, she leaned close to Nan Feihuang's ear and said softly, "Flying General, you must listen carefully to the words the Young Master asked me to convey to you, and that is————go to hell!"

After speaking, Lingyuan struck Nan Feihuang's chest with a palm containing massive soul power. While instantly knocking Feihuang flying, Lingyuan also took the opportunity to snatch the Immortal Herb from his hand.

"Ugh!" Feihuang's entire body slammed into the rock wall, instantly causing countless cracks to appear on it and nearly triggering a landslide. Feihuang crawled up from the ground spitting blood, looking at Title Douluo Lingyuan in disbelief, "Your... Your Excellency Lingyuan, what are you doing?"

Feihuang's expression looked very painful, but there was no help for it. Lingyuan's palm strike made him feel like he was dying of itchiness. Having prepared in advance, Feihuang himself had not expected that he would be completely fine after taking Lingyuan's palm strike head-on.

He even had to use his own internal energy to force out the mouthful of blood he spat.

It seemed that sometimes it was not good to be too strong; he couldn't even feign weakness to scheme against his opponent.

"You didn't die? It seems you weren't boasting just now; you really have broken through to Spirit Douluo. An ordinary Spirit Saint would absolutely not be able to take my palm strike," Lingyuan said triumphantly.

"Lingyuan!" An angry voice came; it was Feihuang's mother, Lan Xue. With such a big commotion here, how could it not alarm her? Although she knew her son was acting and was perfectly fine, she was indeed filled with anger.

What mother who loves her child could tolerate him being ambushed?

At this moment, not only Lan Xue, but five more figures descended from the sky like meteors.

Six of the nine Great Elders of the Spirit Hall had actually come all at once.

Except for Lingyuan who appeared at the beginning, the other five were Ghost Douluo, Chrysanthemum Douluo, Demon Bear Douluo, Ghost Leopard Douluo, and Snake Spear Douluo.

The six of them stood in a pentagram formation, surrounding Feihuang and Lan Xue in the very center.

Among them, Chrysanthemum and Ghost were standing together; their soul power had already merged. It seemed they were quite wary of Lan Xue's strength, so they had already prepared a Spirit Fusion Skill in advance.

Now they could launch it at any time; even a Super Douluo would be too late to interrupt it.

Lan Xue held her Halberd horizontally in front of her and said guardedly, "Six Title Douluo, what exactly is your Spirit Hall planning?"

"Nothing much, we just want you dead. My apologies, Lan Xue," said Snake Spear Douluo. He could be considered to have a slight friendship with Lan Xue; at the very least, they had fought side by side in the Star Dou Great Forest.

Moreover, he was also the one who thought most highly of Nan Feihuang and Qian Renxue, and had even been trying to play matchmaker for them. If one were to talk about who felt the most regret here, it would probably be him.

They were clearly a talented and beautiful couple, lovers who were moving toward each other, yet their fate was completely severed today.
