Douluo: Divine Fire Xuanyuan

Chapter 246 Assassination of Shadow Douluo Xuechen

"Great Elder, my work is done, please go back first." Yuwen Tuo said.

"I'm going back now? But you have this sixth soul ring? And aren't you worried about assassination on the way back?" Jin Peng hesitated.

He knew that Yuwen Tuo could now summon the Evil Eye Tyrant and was not afraid of ordinary Titled Douluo, but with him around, wouldn't the chances of winning be higher?

Jin Peng's train of thought obviously didn't click. Indeed, if he was there, even if someone at the Titled Douluo level came to assassinate him, they could easily take him down by joining forces.

But the problem is, if the killer sees Jin Peng next to Yuwen Tuo, will he just rush out and die?
They would only kill Yuwen Tuo when he was alone.

"Great Elder, I am not afraid of them coming to assassinate me, I am just afraid that they will not come. As for my sixth soul ring, we cannot go back to the Demon Forest now. However, I think the Sun-Moon Empire is so big, it must not be just this one gathering place for soul beasts. I will find a way to deal with it myself. I will go back to the Demon Forest one day, and I want to meet that Evil Emperor!" Yuwen Tuo said coldly.

He knew that he and the Evil Emperor would have a battle sooner or later. If there was any soul beast that Yuwen Tuo would forcibly subjugate even at the cost of violating the Guigu Sect rules, it must be the Evil Emperor.

Because the grudge between them could not be reconciled, Yuwen Tuo killed its son, and it must kill Yuwen Tuo in revenge.

Yuwen Tuo also wanted to seek revenge on the Holy Spirit Church, but he knew that the Holy Spirit Church's trump card, in addition to Ye Xi and Shuilong Xiaoyao, was actually this Evil Emperor. In the original novel, Zhongli Wu even asked for help from it.

The Holy Spirit Cult's headquarters is located underground somewhere in the Demonic Forest. This was allowed by the Evil Emperor. In exchange, the Holy Spirit Cult has to offer sacrifices to it every once in a while.

He will not let go of anyone who colludes with the Holy Spirit Church, no matter if they are human or soul beast.

"Okay, then be careful on your journey!" Jin Peng nodded. He seemed to understand Yuwen Tuo's intention and flew away.

Yuwen Tuo immediately sat cross-legged to recover his soul power.

Since he now has the strength to fight a Titled Douluo head-on, he must use this opportunity to break Xu Tianran's arm.

In fact, Yuwen Tuo has always known who Xu Tianran would send to deal with him.

He was afraid of him before, but now, he wanted to chop him up as the first gift to Xu Tianran.

Only after his soul and physical strength were fully restored did he stand up and return towards Mingdu.

He deliberately chose the road he had taken before and returned the same way.

The reason why he asked Meng Hongchen to go back first was not only because he didn't want her to know his secret, but also because he wanted to let the people in Mingdu know that he was alone and now outside the city.

So if we want to ambush and kill him, wouldn't his way back be the best time?

If Yuwen Tuo had been pretending to be friendly with Xu Tianran before, Xu Tianran might have endured for a while. After all, if Yuwen Tuo died at this time, he would definitely be the first suspect of the Sun and Moon Emperor.

But now, the news that Yuwen Tuo had publicly exposed his biggest weakness, the eunuch, had completely aroused his murderous intent.

Secondly, he made a similar analysis to Jing Hongchen, that Yuwen Tuo wanted to compete with him for the throne in a fair and just manner.

Compared to himself, Yuwen Tuo was in perfect condition and had unparalleled talent.

As long as he stays in Mingdu for a year or two, gets along well with his father, learns a little about politics, and gets to know some court officials, his position will be in danger.

Don’t you see, Jing Hongchen, who was originally slightly biased towards him, is now just about to give his granddaughter directly to Yuwen Tuo.

Once Meng Hongchen follows Yuwen Tuo, won’t Jing Hongchen help his grandson-in-law?
As the head of Mingde Hall, Jing Hongchen holds a high position of power. Once he makes his choice, there will definitely be many people following his lead.

Xu Tianran would never allow this to happen. Yuwen Tuo must die, the sooner the better.

Even if his father blames him later, so what?

Yuwen Tuo is already dead, this is a fait accompli. Apart from Yuwen Tuo, which other prince is more outstanding than him?

There is no real family affection in the royal family. The dead people are no longer useful.

The emperor would definitely scold him and punish him, but he would never do anything to him just for a dead person.

Xu Tianran still has this confidence.

Inside the East Palace, Xu Tianran admired the beautiful moonlight and murmured, "My dear brother, for the sake of my great cause and the future of the Sun-Moon Empire, I beg you, just die."

Under the same moonlight, Yuwen Tuo, carrying his flying soul guide, flew swiftly through the air. Less than thirty miles from Mingdu, a pitch-black shadow suddenly appeared and charged towards him.

The black shadow observed Yuwen Tuo for a long time, and only after making sure that there was really no one around him did he decisively choose to take action.

Yuwen Tuo's eyes flashed. He had already made preparations. He then stretched out his left hand and slashed down with a knife. "Flame Emperor Blade!"

A hundred thousand year old soul skill has infinite power. Even though Yuwen Tuo is only a Soul King, his strength is no less than that of a Soul Sage who has opened his martial soul's true body. Even a Titled Douluo cannot ignore this blow.

The visitor obviously did not expect that Yuwen Tuo could easily deliver such a powerful attack. The black shadow paused for a moment, then shot out a black light, colliding head-on with Yuwen Tuo's flaming sword.

The two forces exploded in the middle.

The black shadow did not move, but Yuwen Tuo was forced to retreat a hundred meters away. Fortunately, he was not injured, but just had some blood boiling.

Yuwen Tuo covered his chest and asked with a smile, "Haha, after all, I'm just a Soul King. Compared to the Titled Douluo, I'm still a lot worse. Right, Shadow Douluo, Senior Xuechen!"

"Boy, how do you know it's me?" A dark shadow gathered in front of him and gradually turned into a human figure. He was wearing a black robe, with white hair and beard, and looked like a middle-aged man in his fifties.

But in fact, he is much older than Jing Hongchen. When he broke through to the Titled Douluo, Jing Hongchen was just a Soul Douluo.

But now, he has already been surpassed by Jing Hongchen.

Jing Hongchen has reached level ninety-four, but he is only level ninety-two. In all these years, he has only improved by that one level.

It can be seen that his potential has reached its limit, and it will be difficult to make any breakthroughs in this lifetime.

However, he is also a soul engineer, and his level may have reached level nine. With the help of soul guides, his strength is not much worse than that of a Super Douluo.

"I only know that among all the Titled Douluo of the Sun-Moon Empire, you are the only one who supports Xu Tianran the most. Jing Hongchen may not know about this, but unfortunately you can't hide it from me. After the events in the court, I know clearly that Xu Tianran must want to kill me as soon as possible. Aren't you the only strongest person he can directly appoint?" Yuwen Tuo explained.

Xue Chen is a very special Titled Douluo in the Sun-Moon Empire. He does not belong to the Royal Worship Hall, but is only loyal to Xu Tianran.

Only he is suitable to be the stepping stone for Yuwen Tuo to intimidate Mingdu.

"Yuwen Tuo, you deserve to die!" Xue Chen's eyes were stern. Yuwen Tuo not only had a terrifyingly high talent for cultivation.

It also possesses powerful intelligence capabilities and good intelligence, and has the Body Sect as its backing.

With so many advantages concentrated in one person, isn't he the most formidable opponent of his Highness?
"If you want to fight, come!" Yuwen Tuo said coldly.

"You are just a Soul King, yet you dare to speak so arrogantly in front of me!" Xue Chen said, his entire body turned pitch black and quickly merged into the darkness.

His martial soul is shadow, which can blend into the darkness. When it comes to assassination skills, no one in the world can match him at the same level.

It was late at night, the perfect battlefield for him.

"First Soul Skill, Shadow Clone!"

In the darkness, an old voice echoed around, and four clones gathered in the four directions of front, back, left and right of Yuwen Tuo.

The four of them raised their hands at the same time, took a step forward, and rushed towards Yuwen Tuo quickly.

Obviously, his clone cannot fight at will, but can only use the same soul skills and perform the same movements as the original.

This clone skill cannot be compared with the Divine Fire Clone.

Yuwen Tuo opened his Yin-Yang Demonic Pupils and, with a God's perspective, instantly saw through all of Shadow Douluo's actions.

However, Shadow Douluo was too fast, and Yuwen Tuo knew that he could not keep up, so in this situation, he took out the Evil Eye that he had prepared long ago without hesitation.

Just before the four were about to attack Yuwen Tuo, Yuwen Tuo suddenly emanated soul power and mental fluctuations comparable to those of a Titled Douluo.

The fluctuations were like ocean waves, instantly destroying all of Shadow Douluo's clones.
