Douluo Jueshi: Who let him join Shrek!

"It must have been hard work for the clan elders to find this way."

Xu Tianran looked at the white-haired elder in front of him, who had undergone a simple disguise, and his expression was very calm.

"Xu Tianran! How could you..."

Before he could finish speaking, his mouth was smashed open by a powerful surge of soul force.

"Throw them in, and while you're at it, arrest everyone who was involved in the investigation before. We can't afford to make this kind of mistake again."

Xu Tianran said calmly.

"Yes!"

Xu Tianran watched as the men in black dragged away the elder of his royal family, slicing open the elder's throat like killing a chicken and draining its blood. The blood and corpse merged into the mountain of corpses and sea of ​​blood.

He waved his hand, summoning a man in black.

"Tell them to hurry up. The year is almost up. I need to make sure we can summon that guy, with enough blood and soul!"

As he spoke, he looked down at his lower body, which had been disabled for many years.

That guy agreed. As long as he could sacrifice enough blood and soul, he could not only help him deal with Jiang Ming, but also restore his paralyzed lower body!
Otherwise, even if he were out of his mind, he wouldn't do such a thing as the emperor of the Sun Moon Empire.

Killing Jiang Ming and restoring his paralyzed lower body are the two things he wants to do most right now.

He could even continue his plan to unify the continent if he killed Jiang Ming!
Without Jiang Ming's interference, he recovered his body and, with his cultivation level and the foundation of the Sun Moon Empire built over thousands of years, who could stop him?!
For these reasons, the sacrifice of these 300,000 people was worthwhile!
It's worth it!
Xu Tianran kept emphasizing these things in his mind, as if by emphasizing them he could ignore the strong smell of blood and the countless wronged souls wafting behind him!

Xu Tianran left, but the mountain of corpses and sea of ​​blood did not stop; instead, it continued to pile up.

Whether the blood and souls of 300,000 people can ensure that he survives remains a question.

To ensure he could bring the other person down, he needed to keep piling up this mountain of corpses and sea of ​​blood, the higher the better!

On the other side, Shrek Academy, Seagod Island.

Jiang Ming must have received news of such a major event as the disappearance of more than 300,000 people within the Sun Moon Empire.

Not only Jiang Ming, but the Tian Dou and Xing Luo empires had also received the news long ago.

Furthermore, both empires were beginning to sense that something was amiss.

Three hundred thousand people have gone missing within the empire; if this happened in their country, it would be a huge deal!
Three hundred thousand people!
The disappearance of 300,000 people into thin air—that's a terrifying thing!

If they happen to encounter us, we must investigate thoroughly, even if it means digging three feet into the ground.

However, the Sun Moon Empire, as the most powerful of the three great empires on the continent, was surprisingly slow in investigating this matter!

It's important to know that this disappearance didn't happen overnight; it lasted for half a year!
In just six months, not only has the matter not been investigated and clarified, but the number of missing persons has also increased!
This is truly incomprehensible.

On Poseidon Island, Jiang Ming sat with Empress Ju Zi of the Sun Moon Empire, Princess Xu Jiu Jiu of the Star Luo Empire, and Princess Vina of the Heavenly Soul Empire—no, now the Heavenly Dou Empire—who had returned after successfully completing her mission. All four of them had somewhat solemn expressions.

Jiang Ming put down the news about Mingdu and the Sun Moon Empire that he had just received through the Mingle Chamber of Commerce, and frowned.

He looked at the orange beside him and said in a deep voice, "The Sun Moon Empire has lost 300,000 people for no reason. What do you, as the Empress, think about this?"

Ju Zi's eyes were fixed on the intelligence in Jiang Ming's hand, and Jiang Ming didn't hesitate to hand it over.

After reading all the intelligence reports, Orange's eyes were filled with confusion.

"No, that's not right."

She knew Xu Tianran quite well. If such a big thing really happened in the Sun Moon Empire, then given Xu Tianran's personality, he would definitely use all his strength to thoroughly investigate it!

Even though the Sun Moon Empire's strength has been weakened considerably, it's impossible that they wouldn't be able to find out about this.

unless
A terrifying thought surfaced in Orange's mind.
If it's really as she thinks, then Xu Tianran has probably gone completely mad!

"It seems the Queen of Oranges has thought of something?"

She had been watching Ju Zi's expression for a long time, and when she saw Ju Zi's pupils slightly contract, she knew what Ju Zi was thinking.

Vina and Jiang Ming also looked at the orange.

Jiang Ming said softly, "If you have any thoughts, just say them. Although you are the Empress of the Sun Moon Empire, this matter still occurred within the territory of the Sun Moon Empire. If you don't want more people to go missing, it would be better if you told us everything you know."

In fact, he also had an idea in his mind.

He wanted to see if Orange's thoughts were the same as his.

Vina, who was standing nearby, added, "Actually, we should both be happy that the Sun Moon Empire lost 300,000 people, since it reduces the likelihood of them appearing on the battlefield. However, morally speaking, I still don't want to see this happen."

The first half is true, but whether the second half is sincere, everyone present knows the answer.

Ju Zi raised her head, her gaze sweeping over Xu Jiujiu, Vina, and Jiang Ming.

She only had a guess in her mind, but if her guess was correct, then she would have to rely on the strength of the people in front of her!

She didn't know what Xu Tianran was planning to do, but if things really developed to that point, stopping Xu Tianran would be more important to her than anything else!

Although she was the Empress of the Sun Moon Empire, she didn't really have much awareness of what it meant to be the mother of a nation; she just didn't want to see ordinary people being sacrificed.

After all, her father was also a sacrifice, and he never returned after going to the battlefield.

Just as she was about to express her thoughts, Jiang Ming suddenly said:

"How about this, we write down our thoughts and guesses on a piece of paper, and then we can all take a look?"

Upon hearing this, the three women nodded.

A few seconds later, the four of them turned the papers in front of them over.

Coincidentally, all four of them wrote three words on their papers.

Evil soul master!
When she saw that the other three people had also written "evil soul master," Ju Zi's eyes narrowed slightly.

It seems these people are very knowledgeable about the situation in the Sun Moon Empire!
Jiang Ming looked at the description of the evil soul master written by Ju Zi and clenched his fist slightly.

He put himself in Xu Tianran's shoes based on Xu Tianran's current situation to speculate on the possibility of this matter.

After all, Xu Tianran is quite capable, if nothing else. But when this happened, he couldn't even find out anything.

This is impossible.

That's 300,000 people!
With 300,000 people missing and no trace found, Xu Tianran might as well give up being emperor. There was no way they could have ambushed and killed him in the western suburbs of Mingdu in the first place.

But since Xu Tianran really couldn't find anything, there's only one possibility.

The disappearance of these 300,000 people is related to Xu Tianran!

Since it involved Xu Tianran, Jiang Ming adopted Xu Tianran's perspective, considering his current predicament and possible solutions. Naturally, he thought of the time when those evil soul masters brought death by creating massive carnage. Jiang Ming was certain that Xu Tianran wasn't an evil soul master. Although the Purple Emperor Annihilation Dragon was an extremely ferocious species among dragons, even being personally annihilated by the Dragon God, its martial soul wasn't that of an evil soul master.

However, Xu Tianran is not an evil soul master and does not have the so-called means to attract evil gods to descend and obtain their power, but the Holy Spirit Cult does!

The Holy Spirit Cult, this evil spirit master organization, has existed on the mainland for quite some time, spanning thousands of years. It's not surprising that they possess some means of communicating with evil gods.

Moreover, Xu Tianran had previously colluded with the evil spirit masters of the Holy Spirit Cult, and their connection can be described as very deep.

Even though he had killed most of the powerful members of the Holy Spirit Cult, in the end, Death God Douluo Ye Xishui was still alive.

Ju Zi realized that the evil spirit master's thinking was similar to Jiang Ming's. She understood Xu Tianran better and knew his personality and abilities very well.

The other two princesses had simpler ideas.

Historically, all instances of mass disappearances or deaths have been attributed to evil spirit masters.

The cultivation of evil soul masters relies on killing, on bloodshed, and on souls!

However, there were too many missing people this time, so many that even the two princesses were not confident, but this was the most likely guess.

"It seems Xu Tianran has truly gone mad."

Jiang Ming's eyes narrowed slightly.

Then, he stood up and looked in the direction of the Sun Moon Empire in the distance.

"We originally had some time, but now that he's acting like this, let's just send him to his death sooner."

Jiang Ming's original plan was to go to Mingdu and take Xu Tianran's head off when it was about a year later.

But now it seems that this kid really is planning to summon an evil god, and with the lives of hundreds of thousands of people at that!
If he continues to delay, the number of people affected will likely exceed 300,000.

"They need my Xingluo faction."

He stopped talking after a long time.

Who could the Star Luo Empire send to help Jiang Ming? Basically, they would only cause trouble and hinder his progress.

Vina, however, was able to speak up directly: "Should I ask the sect leader to accompany you?"

Now that his cultivation level has reached the Limit Douluo realm, Du Busi has already joined the ranks of the top on the continent. Following Jiang Ming, he can hardly be considered a burden.

Jiang Ming shook his head and said, "No need, I can go by myself."

If Xu Tianran could summon the evil god, poisoning him would be useless.

Having fought against a true god's avatar, Jiang Ming knew perfectly well that the gap between a Limit Douluo and a god was far too great!
Even the strongest Limit Douluo is still a mortal, and even the weakest god is still a god.

The difference is just too great.

If Xu Tianran didn't have the ability to summon an evil god, then killing Xu Tianran would be no difficult task for him.

"you"

Hearing what Jiang Ming said, Ju Zi didn't know what to say.

Jiang Ming is going to kill Xu Tianran, who is the emperor of the Sun Moon Empire, and she is the empress of the Sun Moon Empire.

Theoretically speaking, she should have opposed Jiang Ming's killing of Xu Tianran and should have spoken out to stop him.

But now, she doesn't want to stop it.

If Xu Tianran really allowed the evil soul masters to kill 300,000 ordinary people within the Sun Moon Empire, then Xu Tianran would truly be insane! In that case, having Jiang Ming kill Xu Tianran might be the best thing for the Sun Moon Empire.

Jiang Ming looked at the orange and said softly:

"Queen Orange has been staying with me for more than half a year. I once said that I would send you back when you were no longer useful. Now, it's time."

After saying that, before Ju Zi could react, he waved his hand and directly put Ju Zi into his own little world.

When Mingjiang brought Ju Zi here, since it was an avatar and didn't have a small world, he could only use a spatial soul tool.

But now, Jiang Ming is going himself!

Without any hesitation, Jiang Ming put the orange into his small world and flew directly towards the direction of the Sun Moon Empire's capital.

At his speed, he could cross half the continent from Poseidon Island to Mingdu in less than a day!
Meanwhile, inside the Mingdu Imperial Palace, Xu Tianran seemed to sense something and slightly raised his eyes.

He was currently in a secret room, with a ball of red blood light floating in front of him.

This crimson light contained an enormous amount of energy, which was continuously being poured into Xu Tianran's body.

As the energy from the blood-red light continued to flow in, Xu Tianran's aura actually increased continuously!
If there were any level 98 or Limit Douluo level Soul Masters here, they would be able to sense that Xu Tianran's aura has reached the peak of level 98!
He's about to break through to level 99, the Limit Douluo!

Keep in mind that just a year ago, Xu Tianran's cultivation level was only level 92!

From a level 92 Title Douluo to about to break through to level 99 Limit Douluo, this leap took less than a year. Even when Jiang Ming was undergoing the Miraculous Trial, he did not achieve such speed!
Xu Tianran closed his eyes again and began to condense the second soul core, symbolizing a level 99 Limit Douluo.

The surrounding space continued to collapse, and the aura raged wildly, but it was suppressed and concealed by a mist-like presence that enveloped the room.

Under this cover, Xu Tianran's second soul core gradually condensed.

That was a blood-red soul core!
Just one glance is enough to feel an aura of mountains of corpses and seas of blood rushing towards you.

Amidst this mountain of corpses and sea of ​​blood, countless souls wailed, wept, and screamed in agony.

After an unknown amount of time, the tightly closed door to the secret room was opened.

Xu Tianran walked out of the secret room.

Yes, they came out.

Without using any soul tools, he walked out on his own two legs, just like a normal person.

His paralyzed lower body has recovered!
"Somebody come!"

A man in black quickly appeared in front of Xu Tianran.

"Find me a woman; she must be the most beautiful and have the best figure!"

Having been a eunuch in a wheelchair for so long, once his body recovered, a certain desire instantly surged within him.

"Yes!"

Just as the man in black was about to go to Mingdu to look for someone, Xu Tianran suddenly looked up at the distant sky, his eyes narrowing sharply.

"They arrived so quickly. Well, let's see who comes out on top this time!" (End of Chapter)
