Chapter 39: The one who kills my Lingxu brother, even those from the Spirit Hall must die

If Lingxu hadn't mentioned it, Qian Renxue truly wouldn't have noticed that someone was tracking them from behind.

Perhaps it was because she was by Lingxu's side that she let down all her guard.

The two had actually been following them for some time; it wasn't easy to make a move in the Gourmet City, but now, in this quiet place with few people, it was the perfect opportunity to strike.

Whoosh...

In the woods, two men slowly walked out.

One was a tall Spirit Master at level 66, and the other was a slightly thin Spirit Master at level 53.

Both were wearing black clothes and were not wearing masks.

Perhaps in their eyes, killing two children was an easy task; after all, the information stated that this child was only a Soul Elder.

Plus a little girl around nine years old, what kind of threat could they possibly pose!

At this moment, Lingxu was practically a dead man.

"Kid, you're not very big, but your tone is quite bold. At your age, how much soul power can you have?"

"You also know that we, your grandfathers, are a level 66 Soul Emperor and a level 53 Soul King, yet you still say you aren't afraid?" the tall man said.

"Boss, this little girl is nice. Our mission is only to kill this Lingxu. This little girl is incredible; I've never seen such a beautiful little girl. Why not let me play with her for a few days before disposing of her!" the other thin man spoke up.

"You... you actually came to kill my Lingxu brother," Qian Renxue said in surprise.

These people actually had evil intentions toward her.

Lingxu patted Qian Renxue on the shoulder, then stepped forward to stand in front of her, looked at the two, and said, "Why should I be afraid? Since I know your soul power and can still remain this calm, do you think I'm afraid? Do you think only you two are here with us?"

In fact, the tactic was the same as before: deliberately bluffing the two to attack their hearts first.

As soon as these words were spoken, Lingxu could see that they were a bit nervous.

They looked left and right to see if anyone was around.

Seeing that it was effective, Lingxu spoke again: "Didn't you have a level 58 Soul King last time? How should I put it? Anyway, he didn't last three breaths of time."

"You decide what to do, but I will give you a chance to live. Tell me who wants to kill me, and I will consider sparing your lives."

Although Lingxu already had many guesses, the most likely possibility was that Bibi Dong wanted to kill him.

But there had been no evidence, and sending these people from so far away didn't quite seem like Bibi Dong's style.

So, to find out the truth, he still had to start with these assassins.

"Hmph... you dare to kill my Lingxu brother, you are truly tired of living. You should know that Uncle Bufan is a Spirit Douluo. You better think carefully and tell us who ordered you!" Qian Renxue also spoke up.

At this time, Qian Renxue could also guess Lingxu's goal and was asking from the side as well.

"If you don't speak, our people are going to make a move." Seeing the two hesitate, Qian Renxue continued.

The tall Soul Emperor said, "No wonder the second brother didn't return; it turns out he died at your hands. But since we accepted the mission, we must complete it. Because if we don't complete this mission, we will die too, so don't count on me telling you who sent us."

"Call out the people behind you. Today, either you die or I die."

Qian Renxue looked at the two and said, "Could it be that you accepted a Life-and-Death Order mission?"

"Little girl, you know quite a bit. It seems I can't let you live either," the thin Soul King sneered.

Qian Renxue whispered in Lingxu's ear: "Lingxu brother, I know there is an assassin organization in Heaven Dou City. After we go back, leave this matter to me. I can find out who exactly wants to kill you."

Lingxu said in surprise: "Xue'er, you know?"

Qian Renxue nodded and said: "I might not be able to find out elsewhere, but this Life-and-Death Order mission only exists there, and I happen to be able to investigate that place."

"Good!"

Now Lingxu didn't need to bluff the two anymore; he could just kill them directly.

"Xue'er, let's attack together. Our first battle together," Lingxu said.

"Okay!" Qian Renxue was also eager to try; after all, this was her first battle with her Lingxu brother.

Seeing Lingxu and Qian Renxue take the initiative to fight, the tall man said: "I'll watch the surroundings to prevent anyone from ambushing us. You go handle these two dolls; it shouldn't be difficult."

"Okay, Boss!"

The next moment, the thin-looking Soul King released his martial soul.

His martial soul was a monkey, and under Martial Soul Possession, he looked slightly stronger.

Lingxu and Qian Renxue advanced simultaneously, and then both activated their External Spirit Bone, Golden Armor.

"This is a soul bone? Boss, we've struck it rich."

But the next moment, when they saw Lingxu and Qian Renxue activate their martial souls and Spirit Rings, they were stunned.

They both actually had four Spirit Rings; one had two yellow, one purple, and one black, while the other had three purple and one black.

Lingxu's Spirit Rings were naturally different from before.

Because he completed the task of finding a Spirit Ring for Qian Renxue within three months, he was rewarded with the Five Tiger Soul-Severing Spear technique, the Nine Styles of Soul Severing, and a 1000-year increase to the age of all his Spirit Rings.

There was originally a map of the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, but because Lingxu already knew about the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, the system gave Lingxu a different reward.

He was rewarded with a dual formation set of a Maze Array and a Killing Array.

The formation had a certain effect even on Title Douluo, let alone those below the Title Douluo level.

Even Qian Renxue didn't know about the changes to Lingxu's Spirit Rings, and at this moment, she also showed a look of surprise.

It was as if she were saying, as expected of my Lingxu brother, truly amazing!

The next instant, Lingxu and Qian Renxue attacked together; Qian Renxue and Lingxu attacked together.

It was still Qian Renxue's First Spirit Skill, Angel Assault.

Concentrating the sacred energy of the Six-Winged Angel onto her fist, it formed a golden light shield when attacking, serving both offense and defense.

Moreover, the sacred energy had the effect of dissolving and suppressing the soul power of the target being attacked.

Lingxu also activated his second spirit skill, and wings unfolded on his back.

One on the left and one on the right.

"Boss, these two dolls are not..."

Ah...

Lingxu did not launch a physical attack, but instead quietly used a mental shock during the assault.

Although he did not use his full strength, it still disrupted the man's consciousness, leaving him no time to resist before being killed in one blow by Qian Renxue.

In that instant, this Soul Emperor was stunned.

"What did you do to him?" The tall man activated his martial soul, completing his possession in an instant.

Qian Renxue also knew what Lingxu had just done; otherwise, her First Spirit Skill could not have easily killed a Soul King.

She naturally knew about Lingxu's Spirit Bone Skill, mental shock; after all, she was the one who had gifted that soul bone to Lingxu.

"It's time for the next one." Lingxu looked toward the tall Soul Emperor.

Qian Renxue said, "Brother Lingxu, why don't we try that? We haven't used it in actual combat yet."

"Alright!"

Lingxu and Qian Renxue completely ignored the Soul Emperor before them.

It was as if the two of them were simply immersed in their own world.

The next instant, the twelve-winged angel appeared after their martial soul fusion.

At this very moment, the tall man seemed to remember something.

"I remember now, you have the Angel Spirit martial soul. Don't kill me, I am actually a member of the Spirit Hall too; this is all a misunderstanding."

The middle-aged man felt fear upon seeing the martial soul before him; it was an Angel Spirit, and he had actually wanted to kill someone who possessed an Angel Spirit.

Qian Renxue said, "No matter who you are, as long as you dare to kill my Brother Lingxu, even those from the Spirit Hall must die."
