Douluo: Star Crown Glory

Chapter 37 Three-Year Agreement
Xu Mingxi plunged into the Star Dou Great Forest without looking back. The Xingguan Sect recalled most of its disciples, leaving only a few still training outside, and Xu Mingguang was one of them.

The outside world is in turmoil. The Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall believes that she has found true love, and the abandoned son of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan begins to read books and organize information in the Spirit Hall's library.

The Haotian Twins ventured into the continent, gained fame and also met the people they loved most in their lives. Relying on the Sword Bone Twins Douluo, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect's business spread across the entire continent.

The Xing Luo Empire was ambitious and wanted to conquer the entire Tian Dou Empire. The Spirit Hall mediated and curbed the development of the Xing Luo Empire. The entire continent entered a relatively stable development period.

Three years later, the sect master personally came with the great elder and two titled Douluo to a small town on the outskirts of the Xingdou Great Forest. This was the place where they had agreed to meet with Xu Mingxi.

The vast Star Forest is like a man-eating soul beast. Every year, every day, people lose their lives here.

The two began a long wait. As time passed, the Great Elder's face gradually became pale, and there was a hint of pain in the eyes of the Sect Master.

Just when they thought that the future of the Xingguan Sect had been destroyed in the Xingdou Great Forest, Xu Mingxi walked out of the Xingdou Great Forest alone. The moment he saw the Sect Master and the Great Elder, he finally fainted with peace of mind.

The Great Elder's eyes were filled with tears. This was his grandson whom he had spoiled for twenty years. He looked at the bright red blood stains on Xu Mingxi's clothes, as well as his messy hair, beard, and weathered face.

Knowing that the sect leader had carried Xu Mingxi on his back, the Great Elder saw the centipede-like scar on his back that stretched from his back to his neck. He could no longer hold back his tears, and they flowed uncontrollably from the eyes of this nearly 100-year-old man.

"Let's go back to the clan."

The two men checked and found that Xu Mingxi had just fainted due to overwork, so they gave him a wash, bought the most expensive and comfortable carriage in the town, and took the young master of the Xingguan Sect back to the sect.

What they didn't know was that shortly after they left, a group of strong men rushed out of the Star Dou Forest, searching with Xu Mingxi's portrait, and seemed to have robbed them of something.

The portrait showed Xu Mingxi's dishevelled appearance after he had gone through hardships, with messy hair, untidy beard, face covered with dust, and wearing the tattered clothes of an ordinary soul master.

Even if Xu Mingguang came, he might not be able to recognize that he was his once noble younger brother.

As soon as Xu Mingxi came out of the Star Dou Great Forest, he was picked up by the sect master and the great elder. No one in the small town had ever seen him, let alone knew where he had gone.

The burly man in the lead violently displayed his martial spirit, and seven spirit rings appeared on his body. The inky black seventh spirit ring lit up directly, and with one blow of the hammer, the entire town was razed to the ground.

The soul masters in the town fled one after another, and the survivors looked at the hammer in his hand, angry but not able to say anything. They watched him completely destroy the town and then lead the team away.

Xu Mingxi's scribbled wanted poster began to circulate across the continent. Anyone who found it could go to the Haotian Sect to claim a reward of 10,000 gold soul coins.

The instigator had already returned to Xingluo Mountain in a carriage. On the way, Xu Mingxi woke up from his coma and saw his grandfather sitting next to him. He took a few bites of food and fell into a deep sleep again. He was really exhausted in the past three years.

A few days later, Xu Mingxi finally woke up after getting enough sleep. He washed up and put on a high-collared spirit master robe, covering the scars on his back and neck. Looking at his reflection in the water, he felt as if he was in another world. He said hello to his mother and walked alone in the Falling Star Mountain, looking at the grass and trees around him. Time seemed to have stopped in this mountain. There was almost no change at all. The only changes were the people of the Xingguan Sect who grew up here.

Xu Mingxi walked into the sect master's hall. Since the sect master and the eleven elders received the news that Xu Mingxi had woken up, except for the five elders who were guarding Xu Mingguang outside, they have all arrived and have been waiting for a long time.

They looked at Xu Mingxi, whom they hadn't seen for many years. He even looked a little dazed. He was completely different now. The confidence and edge that emanated from him made even these old guys feel dazzling.

Xu Mingxi nodded to the sect leader and several elders, until he saw his father sitting at the bottom and smiled gently.

With this smile, the sharp edge that was exposed was instantly restrained and completely hidden in the body. Xu Mingxi would never direct his edge towards reproduction, nurturing his family and sect.

The sect master and the elders were very pleased. Doesn't this look like the sect's successor? What happened before? They just didn't know if Mingxi had fallen behind in his soul power training during the past three years in the Star Dou Great Forest.

Xu Mingxi knew what the sect master and the elders were thinking. The star crown emerged, and six soul rings lit up above the star crown. The sixty-seventh-level fighting soul emperor came up.

It’s good that his soul power cultivation has not fallen behind. This cultivation speed is even faster than Xu Mingxi’s original speed in the sect. No one asked about his sixth soul skill. They all dispersed after leaving a word.

Seven days later, the succession ceremony of the young master will be held.

When Xu Mingxi returned home, he was surrounded by his grandfather and his parents. He accepted their care and slowly told them the good things about his experiences in the past three years.

Over the past three years, apart from hunting souls and traveling, Xu Mingxi has either been practicing or on his way to practice. He even reduced his sleep time to the extreme, which is why he has his current level of soul power.

At first, he went to a small town outside the Star Dou Great Forest alone, investigated for a few days, and joined a reputable soul-hunting mercenary group.

It was relatively smooth at the beginning. He could earn some gold soul coins while gaining experience. Even when he reached level 60, he happened to encounter a Howling Moon Silver Wolf that was nearly 20,000 years old. With the help of his teammates, he successfully hunted it down and obtained his current sixth soul ring.

But the good times did not last long. During a hunt for a ten thousand year old soul beast, a soul bone exploded. The leader of the mercenary group and the only soul saint immediately turned against them and wanted to kill all the members of the group.

Their mercenary group only values ​​quality over quantity. Including Xu Mingxi, there are only six of them. The strong attack-type Soul Emperor and the strong attack-type Soul King closest to the group leader were killed without any warning.

The remaining three people fled for their lives, but they were no match for their opponents. Xu Mingxi was the last one to be hunted down, and he managed to escape only with the help of the night environment. However, even so, he was left with indelible scars on his back.

As for the soul bone, of course it fell into the hands of the team leader. Xu Mingxi remembered him completely, the soul saint known as Giant Wing. The good guy in the past turned into a devil in the face of interests.
