Douluo Reborn: The Silver Dragon Returns, but Regrets End

Chapter 144 The Small Town
Lin Xiuran slowly closed his eyes, calmed down, and tried to sense the subtle movements around him, as if he could hear the breathing of the wind and feel the pulse of the earth.

After a long time, he opened his eyes and a glimmer of light flashed by. Although he did not get promoted, there was a hint of enlightenment deep in his eyes.

While Leng Yaozhu was teaching Lin Xiuran about mental power, a young girl was standing at the door of a nearby room.

The girl was naturally Gu Yue. This was the laboratory where they conducted experiments together, so it was normal for her to appear here.

Leng Yaozhu said to Lin Xiuran, "Don't worry, things are already very good for you now. Aren't you going to Tiandou City? You can go there first to get a feel for it, just in case you suddenly make a breakthrough."

"Okay, auntie. I was planning to leave tomorrow as well."

Lin Xiuran’s plan is actually about to be implemented. He cannot break through the spiritual realm for the time being, but at least he has a direction, which is already very good.

Gu Yue, who was standing at the door, had been keeping his head down in silence, but when he heard the last part of the conversation between the two, a gleam of light suddenly flashed in his eyes.

That light was nothing but filled with a deep murderous intent.

…………

Shrek City is actually not very far from Tiandou City, but in order to be faster, Lin Xiuran directly chose the high-altitude flying car.

Its speed is obvious to all. Even getting from Mingdu to Shrek City only takes a few hours, not to mention the relatively close Tiandou City.

And between Tiandou City and Shrek City there is a small city called Notting City.

Speaking of Notting City, you may not remember it very clearly, but within the jurisdiction of Notting City there is a place that is most famous in the soul master world.

Shenhun Village!
Legend has it that this is the hometown of the first generation of Shrek Seven Devils, the Tang Sect, so it is very famous and can be considered a place with a lot of historical charm.

Of course, Lin Xiuran didn’t care too much about these things. If it weren’t for the fact that he couldn’t start a war, he wouldn’t even mind just setting it on fire.

But he has to stay here today. There is a small forest here, which is under the jurisdiction of the Spirit Communication Tower.

There has been something unusual about this place these days, and the people in charge of guarding it have not found the specific reason, so they reported it to the Spirit Pagoda headquarters.

Then Lin Xiuran happened to pass by here, so Leng Yaozhu gave the task to him.

Nottingham can be said to be a historical city. Even after 20,000 years, this former border town has not fallen under the torrent of history.

Perhaps because of its special significance, Shrek Academy and the federal government's Bureau of History and Culture have taken extra care of this place.

Therefore, the development of this small town is still good. Relying on the booming tourism industry and economic support, the residents live a very good life.

Moreover, this place is very different from places like Mingdu. There is no fast-paced feeling. People live a leisurely and unhurried life.

After entering the small town, Lin Xiuran walked alone for a while. It must be said that the ancient buildings here looked very similar to those in Tiandou City.

It can be said that this is a castrated Tiandou City. After all, Notting City was also the territory of Tiandou City 20,000 years ago. Naturally, the architectural style is very similar and it is relatively well preserved.

After walking around for a few times, Lin Xiuran went straight to the base of the Spirit Pagoda. After all, this is a small city, and even if the geographical location is advantageous, he can actually go to the Spirit Pagoda headquarters in the nearby Shrek City.

Therefore, there is no branch of the Spirit Tower here, but because this forest is under the control of the Spirit Tower, people were still sent here to station in the forest.

After all, this place is part of the Spirit Pagoda's property.

Lin Xiuran came directly to the office of the Spirit Communication Tower outside the forest.

The office of the Spirit Pagoda is relatively luxurious even though it is located in a small town. It is a very large house.

There are some guardrails made of special metal around it, and there is a small pavilion at the door, which may be the duty room.

This is the Spirit Pagoda. It is rich, so even though it is a small city, it has very good configurations.

As Lin Xiuran approached, three people came out of the office. The leader was a middle-aged man with a calm face and eyes that showed the competence accumulated from long-term work. Behind him followed two young people who looked full of vigor and vitality.

When the middle-aged man saw Lin Xiuran, a trace of doubt flashed across his eyes, and then he showed surprise. Because he noticed the Spiritual Tower medal on Lin Xiuran's chest, which was proof of his identity. He never thought that the person sent by the headquarters to deal with this abnormal incident was so young.

"Are you the person sent by the headquarters?" The middle-aged man spoke first, with a hint of uncertainty in his tone.

Lin Xiuran nodded and said with a smile: "I am Lin Xiuran, and I have been ordered to come here to understand the situation."

The two young men couldn't help but look Lin Xiuran up and down, with expressions of disbelief on their faces.

"I really didn't expect you to be so young, but since it was arranged by the headquarters, you must have some outstanding qualities." The middle-aged man quickly adjusted his state and said, "My name is Wang Meng, and these two are my assistants, Xiao Liu and Xiao Zhao. The recent abnormalities in this forest have caused us a headache, thank you for your concern."

Lin Xiuran nodded slightly and said, "Tell me the details first."

Wang Meng quickly responded: "Okay, recently, there have been some strange noises coming from the forest, and some instruments have detected unknown energy fluctuations, but we have sent people in to investigate many times, but have not found anything substantial."

While listening to Wang Meng's story, Lin Xiuran looked toward the mysterious forest, thinking about all the possibilities in his mind.

"Okay, open the entrance to the forest. I'll go in and take a look."

Nothing is better than actually investigating it, so Lin Xiuran planned to go in and check it out and solve the problem as quickly as possible.

"Okay." Wang Meng nodded and instructed the young man next to him: "I'll prepare the tools now, let's go in together."

"No need. I can go in and take a look by myself." Lin Xiuran naturally refused their company.

Wang Meng was startled, and then hurriedly said: "But... there are still some soul beasts in there, and some have reached the thousand-year level, so I'm afraid..."

"It's okay, I can handle it." Lin Xiuran glanced at him lightly. With his powerful mental strength, he could naturally see that Wang Meng's cultivation was only at the Soul King level.

Wang Meng hurriedly persuaded, "But if anything goes wrong with you, I won't be able to explain it to the headquarters."
