Chapter 129: I Am Actually a Title Douluo
Inside the hotel, Lingxu did not go to sleep; after returning, he had been continuously practicing the Lingxue Sacred Heart Art.
And just as he had expected, the people of Hanhai City had brought men with them.
There were quite a few of them, and they had already surrounded the entire hotel!
"Which room are these three people staying in!" A Soul Saint, holding portraits of Lingxu and the other two, walked straight to the front desk.
When the woman at the front desk saw that these people were all from the City Lord's Mansion, she immediately panicked and said, "I... I don't know; I wasn't the one who checked them in."
It was not this woman who had handled the check-in; although she had seen the three of them enter the hotel that evening, she truly did not know which room they were staying in.
"Then go and open every room for me to check, until you find these three."
At this moment, a beautiful woman walked in, her voice sounding somewhat anxious, as if she could not wait to see the people immediately.
"This..."
"Alright, alright!"
The woman was helpless; these were people from the City Lord's Mansion, so she could only comply and take out a ring of keys.
If she did not give them up, she knew she would very likely be killed on the spot.
"These are the spare keys for all the rooms, you can..."
Before she could finish speaking, the Soul Saint snatched the keys and said, "Follow me up, we'll search them one by one."
Just at this time, the City Lord Hai Dafu also walked in, along with several Soul Saints under his command.
This time, almost all the elite forces of the City Lord's Mansion had been dispatched, because the fact that the opponent could easily use Mental Power to attack two Soul Emperors meant that the opponent's Mental Power was vastly superior to those two Soul Emperors.
To achieve this, only an expert whose Mental Power had reached the level of a Spirit Douluo could do it.
Therefore, it was highly likely that the opponent was a Spirit Douluo.
And just as his men were about to open the hotel room doors, a young man was seen slowly walking out from the hallway.
Someone looked at the portrait in their hand and immediately said, "Lord City Lord, it's him!"
Having just walked out, Lingxu was surrounded on his left, right, and rear, with only an opening in front.
"Yo, not bad, two Spirit Douluos have come," Lingxu said as he walked forward.
Using the system to check, the old man wearing fine clothes had soul power that had already reached Level 89, and the woman beside him also had Level 83 soul power.
Two powerful Spirit Douluos were enough to control an entire city.
Although this place belonged to the territory of the Heaven Dou Empire, the heavens were high and the emperor was far away, so they were basically local emperors here, possessing absolute control, the final say, and the power of life and death.
"Kid, my son Hai Qing has no grudge against you; why did you treat him like that?" the woman asked directly.
At this moment, Lingxu had hidden his soul power; from the outside, his soul power appeared to be only around Level 20.
Lingxu feigned confusion and said, "What did I do to him?"
"What did you do? You used a mental attack to injure my son's soul, along with two other Soul Emperors; you tell me what you did!" the woman said.
"You must have the wrong person, do I have such great ability?"
"Those were two Soul Emperors!"
"Besides, I don't know any mental attacks."
Looking at the very young Lingxu, the City Lord and his wife were actually somewhat doubtful.
City Lord Hai Dafu suddenly remembered something and said, "You might not, but that doesn't mean the people behind you don't!"
"Seize him for me, and the two women with him; don't let a single one escape."
"No matter which great family or sect you are a disciple out for training from, if you dare to hurt my son, you must pay the price."
While speaking, a Soul Emperor took a rope out from a Soul Guidance Device.
"Kid, you had better be obedient in front of the Lord City Lord, otherwise..."
Before the words were finished, a powerful aura erupted from Lingxu, and that sharp killing intent made the Soul Emperor's body begin to tremble.
"Otherwise what?"
Lingxu stepped forward, no longer pretending, and looked at the City Lord and the City Lord's wife.
"I admit it, I did it."
"If you want to fight, come and try!"
As soon as the words fell, soul power flickered on Lingxu, and then his Spirit Rings began to appear.
When the first Spirit Ring appeared, all the Spirit Masters present were stunned.
The first Spirit Ring was black; were their eyes playing tricks on them, or was this fake?
One after another, the Spirit Rings appeared; nine Spirit Rings, six black and three red, appeared exceptionally striking.
The scene went strangely quiet for an instant; even if an embroidery needle had fallen, it might have been heard.
After a long while, someone finally said, "This... impossible, it must be fake; the first Spirit Ring is over ten thousand years old, and there are three red hundred-thousand-year Spirit Rings."
"Impossible, absolutely impossible."
"It must be fake."
At first, Hai Dafu's subordinates were very afraid, but as people kept saying it was fake, everyone's mindset seemed to relax at this moment.
But when everyone noticed that City Lord Hai Dafu and his wife still had solemn expressions, they immediately dared not say anything more.
The color of the Spirit Rings might be fake, but the aura of the person in front of them was not.
As a Level 89, how could Hai Dafu not feel it?
Because he had not given the order, the others did not dare to make a move.
"Are you a Title Douluo?" Hai Dafu looked at Lingxu in doubt; if the opponent really was a Title Douluo, then this matter would have to be handled in a different way.
"Of course, do I need to lie to you?" Lingxu said indifferently.
Hai Dafu's brows were tightly furrowed; if the opponent had just stepped into the Title Douluo realm, at Level 91 or 92, relying on the abilities of the two of them, plus these subordinates, it was not impossible to fight.
The key was that he did not know the opponent's background, what his exact soul power level was, and if this man was a Title Douluo, what about the other two women? Were they the same as the person in front of him?
Hai Dafu thought a great deal; having clawed his way up from an ordinary Spirit Master to become the lord of a city, he certainly possessed depth of character.
But just because he had it did not mean others did.
His wife simply could not endure her son being turned into a fool, and seeing Hai Dafu lost in thought, she said, "Everyone attack together! How could someone this young be a Title Douluo? He's faking it, he must be faking it."
A group of Spirit Masters swarmed forward; the hotel lobby could not withstand such a battle, so Lingxu struck quickly.
In an instant, phantom images appeared, and only a series of miserable wails could be heard.
Nearly twenty Spirit Masters in this hotel lobby all collapsed, without even a chance to resist.
"I really am a Title Douluo; is there any need for me to lie to you?" Lingxu clapped his hands and said.
"Now it's your turn!"
"I... you..." The woman who had just ordered the group to attack did not know what to say.
She had not expected that the other party was actually a Title Douluo.
"Brother Fu, what should we do?" She could only ask Hai Dafu beside her.
At this moment, Hai Dafu also furrowed his brows; the movements of this person just now were truly too fast. If it were him, he could also resolve one or two Soul Emperors or average Soul Saints in a short time.
But to resolve so many people in such a short time, that was somewhat difficult.
This indicated that the other party was indeed a Title Douluo; as for the specific level, it remained to be determined.
"This is not a place for battle. Do you dare to go outside and fight?" Hai Dafu looked at Lingxu and said.
Lingxu smiled: "I have the exact same intention."
The three of them retreated outside; some of the people inside stood up and prepared to leave, while others were too terrified and continued to play dead inside.
Lingxu had used force, but he did not take their lives; naturally, it would not be easy for them either.
Arriving outside the hotel, Hai Dafu saw a pond in front of the hotel and seemed quite satisfied.
Whoosh...
Lingxu discovered that the moisture in the air had suddenly increased quite a bit.
Hai Dafu's Spirit Rings appeared on his body, and his martial soul was also revealed before Lingxu.
It was actually a single-horned sea lion with eight Spirit Rings—one yellow, three purple, and four black. It was very clear that this fellow might have eaten Whale Glue when he was young, which was why he had successfully absorbed Spirit Rings beyond his level.
At the same time, this woman also released her martial soul and Spirit Rings: two yellow, two purple, and four black.
Her martial soul was a jellyfish. When he arrived, Lingxu had also read some books about sea Spirit Beasts, so he had some understanding of the martial souls of Sea Soul Masters.
The jellyfish before him was extraordinary; it was a highly poisonous Styx Jellyfish.
It could be said that her poison was not inferior to the Jade Phosphorus Snake Emperor of the Poison Douluo.
The two of them surrounded Lingxu from the left and right.
At this moment, the commotion below also drew the attention of the people in the hotel.
Through the windows, one could clearly see the situation below.
This included Lingxu's group, who were also watching from above, so Lingxu also transmitted his voice to them, telling them not to move around and just to watch.
Swish...
Just after Lingxu's voice transmission, the Styx Jellyfish's two oar-like arms stretched over, seemingly intending to surround Lingxu.
When reading books related to Spirit Beasts, it was said that this Styx Jellyfish was one of the most poisonous jellyfish, and naturally, it was also the ugliest.
These arms coming over made Lingxu feel very disgusted.
He felt that using the Golden Twin Swords would dirty his soul bone, so Lingxu took out that Xuantie Sword instead.
Facing something extremely disgusting and highly poisonous, Lingxu traced several sword flowers, condensed his soul power, and used the Lingxue Sacred Heart Sword.
Under several flashes of sword light, the arms—or rather, tentacles—of the Styx Jellyfish were directly cut into several pieces.
But after Lingxu cut them off, the fallen parts began to emit light, and then popping sounds rang out.
These pieces actually exploded, and in an instant, a mist permeated the area.
The surrounding Spirit Masters began to flee one after another.
"As expected of an outsider; they don't know the high toxicity of the lady's Styx Jellyfish at all. Cutting it with a sword—isn't that just giving it the opportunity to spread the toxin?"
"Exactly, exactly. So what if he's a Title Douluo? Even an average Title Douluo can't handle the poison of this Styx Jellyfish."
Hai Dafu also retreated a good distance at this moment, standing near his wife, because even he dared not approach the poisonous mist of this Styx Jellyfish.
Inside the room at the hotel, several people began to worry.
"Will Brother Ling be alright?" Huo Wu asked.
"He should be fine," Shui Bing'er said.
At this time, only Luo Liu'er and Luo Yun'er feigned composure. Luo Yun'er said, "Don't worry, Young Master will be fine."
As soon as the words fell, Lingxu moved his soul power, and these poisonous mists dispersed.
The people watching from afar were shocked.
"Run!"
"Ah..."
It was just that the poisonous mist was driven too quickly by Lingxu's soul power, and in the blink of an eye, it assaulted them.
Some who had just smelled the poisonous mist collapsed to the ground and began to convulse.
"How is this possible?"
The city lord's wife did not care about the lives of her subordinates; the high toxicity of her Styx Jellyfish was famous, and she had basically never missed when using it to deal with people.
Lingxu said, "This little bit of poison doesn't seem to have any effect on me. Let's continue; bring on whatever moves you have."
"By the way, you two are husband and wife; do you have a Martial Soul Fusion Skill? Use it and let me see."
Being spoken to by Lingxu, both of them were speechless. Was a Martial Soul Fusion Skill something that could be possessed so easily?
"Attack together!"
The next moment, both of them activated their Martial Soul Avatar.
One was a giant jellyfish, its tentacles covered in deadly poison.
There was also a sea lion.
They surrounded Lingxu in the middle.
Lingxu only said indifferently: "I don't want to play anymore; you're disturbing everyone's sleep."
Immediately after, Lingxu moved.
He did not use any soul skill, using only the Eight Extremities Fist he had obtained at the very beginning.
Boom—
Facing this sea lion that was four or five meters tall, Lingxu threw six or seven consecutive punches, and the massive sea lion was sent flying twenty or thirty meters away, crashing into the rockery of the hotel.
And this Styx jellyfish, in the same way.
She was sent flying dozens of meters by Lingxu; her specialty was deadly poison.
Her other attack power was truly not very good; once the toxins had no effect, even an ordinary Soul Saint could fight her.
One crashed into the rockery, and the other crashed into a tree.
After landing, they both deactivated their Martial Soul Avatar state.
Lingxu said: "Do you want to continue?"
Just from this one attack, both of them were terrified; this was definitely a Title Douluo, and an extremely powerful Title Douluo at that, not someone they could afford to provoke at all.
"Brother Fu, what should we do?"
"Accept our defeat. As long as we are still alive, there is a chance to cure Qing'er. If we die, think about how Qing'er will live in the future," Hai Dafu said; he was thinking very clearly and was also very rational.
"Fine, that's all we can do."
The two finished their telepathic communication and, enduring the intense pain in their bodies, walked toward Lingxu.
Lingxu did not attack immediately, because looking at the appearance of these two, it seemed they had already given up.
And it was just as Lingxu had thought.
When the two approached Lingxu, they bowed and said: "We are sorry. It is our failure to discipline our son that disturbed your rest. We ask for your forgiveness, my lord."
It must be said that these two were truly capable of enduring; they were worthy of being people who could attain the position of city lord.
Lingxu said indifferently: "Is that all?"
"My lord, to express our apologies, I am willing to compensate you with one million Gold Soul Coins, how about that?" Hai Dafu said.
Generally speaking, Gold Soul Coins could solve most problems.
Lingxu said: "Gold Soul Coins? I don't need them! I have no interest in money."
For some reason, Lingxu suddenly said this sentence, as if he had heard it somewhere before.
"My lord, my Hanhai City treasury has all kinds of treasures. If you can spare us, you may choose three treasures from inside, how about that?" Hai Dafu said.
Actually, he had also thought of this outcome; how could such a powerful person lack Gold Soul Coins?
Only treasures might have some appeal.
To be honest, this actually attracted Lingxu; in fact, for him, he had turned his son into a fool—although it wasn't fatal, this grudge was indeed a deep one.
According to Lingxu's heart, he certainly wanted to kill them all to avoid leaving any future trouble.
However, since there were treasures, he would put that aside for now.
Thus, Lingxu said: "Three items? That's not enough."
"My lord, what do you suggest?" Hai Dafu asked tentatively.
Lingxu said with a serious face: "Whatever I take a liking to, I want it all!"
