Douluo: Reincarnation of Pineapple Blowing Snow, the Fruit Treasure returns!

Ning Fengzhi continued talking.

"Secondly, there is political pressure. The Spirit Hall ordered our Heaven Dou Empire to hand over the three of you, or they will start a war."

Ning Fengzhi paused for a moment, his tone lowered, and his face showed helplessness.

"His Majesty Tian Dou is currently doing his best to negotiate, and has temporarily withstood the pressure by citing insufficient evidence and the need for a thorough investigation."

There are dissenting voices within the empire; not everyone fears the Spirit Hall. However… we are all aware of the Spirit Hall's power and influence.

Their influence is deeply entrenched and they are not to be trifled with.

If they really don't hesitate to completely break off relations...

For the sake of the empire's overall interests, His Majesty... may find it difficult to forcibly protect you any longer. Handing you over might be... the best option.

After hearing these words, the heaviness in the room reached its peak.

Bone Douluo clenched his fists in surprise after hearing this.

Sword Douluo broke the heavy silence.

"The situation is dangerous, but it may not be all bad."

Upon hearing this, both Bone Douluo and Sword Douluo showed surprised expressions.

They knew that Sword Douluo was known for his aloof personality, and that he rarely offered words of comfort except when he doted on Ning Rongrong.

Sword Douluo calmly swept his gaze over Pineapple Snow, ignoring the astonishment of the other two.
"After this fierce battle, my soul power was pushed to its limit, and I sought a breakthrough in the face of adversity... My soul power has increased by one level."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ning Fengzhi said, "Uncle Jian, it's a good thing that your soul power has increased by one level..."

Then, as if just realizing what had happened, his eyes widened in disbelief.
"Uncle Jian, what...what did you say? Your soul power...has increased?!"

It's important to understand that for a Soul Master at Sword Douluo Chen Xin's level, advancing even one level is incredibly difficult.

At this stage, improvement often requires years, even decades, of accumulation and sudden enlightenment. He had been stuck at his current level for far too long, so long that everyone thought this might be his limit.

Hearing about the breakthrough at this moment was so shocking it felt like it went straight to the top of my head.

Bone Douluo was also shocked. He gasped, and the muscles on his face twitched slightly.

"You old bastard, you're not mistaken, are you? Under those circumstances... you actually broke through?!"

The reactions of these two people clearly demonstrate just how astonishing Sword Douluo Chen Xin's level advancement truly was.

Pineapple Snowflakes, lying there, was also slightly moved.

That's a promotion at the level of a Title Douluo...

I don't know if my soul power has actually increased.

As he pondered this, he began to examine his own body, wondering if the fierce battle had brought him any benefits.

But as soon as I focused my mind, that familiar, excruciating pain still spread throughout my body, so I decided to give up.

Bone Douluo noticed the change in Pineapple Snow's expression and comforted her:

"Kid, stop messing around. First, take care of your tattered clothes."

"Only by staying alive can you have a future. Focus on recovering as quickly as possible, and then desperately improve your strength—that's your most important task right now!"

Ning Fengzhi finally recovered from his shock, composed himself, and gently comforted him:

"Uncle Bone is right. All you need to do now is rest. We can talk about the rest later."

After giving a few more simple instructions to rest and recover and not to worry about what's happening outside, the three of them left Pineapple Snow's room, carefully closing the door behind them.

Silence returned to the room, broken only by the whistling wind outside the window and the steady breathing of the two companions. (End of Chapter)
