Douluo: I, the Sun God

Chapter 182 Killing Hu Liena

After hearing Xu Yang's idea, Ning Fengzhi agreed, after all, Xu Yang was the future Emperor of Xia.

So Xu Yang left Tian Dou City and headed towards Jialing Pass. His destination was not Jialing Pass, but the large cities nearby. These cities originally had branches of the Spirit Hall, and after Qian Renxue was driven out of Tian Dou City, they became restless.

On a rooftop in Xilu City, Hu Liena looked down at the Soul Masters who were burning and looting supplies, her eyes showing no emotion. She had instigated these scoundrel Soul Masters to do all this, with the aim of throwing Xilu City into chaos.

She concealed herself well, toying with a black cuboid in her hand—it was a soul power battery.

"What exactly is the working principle behind this thing?! We've already seized so much, and we still can't figure out how it's made. The anti-counterfeiting technology is truly amazing!"

She has already obtained many soul power batteries, but every time she disassembles them, the soul power circuits on the battery materials are damaged, making it impossible to investigate the manufacturing method. It is clearly just a simple level two soul tool, but neither the materials nor the soul power circuits are unprecedented.

As the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall, she herself had studied the creation of soul tools for a period of time. Although she could not create high-level beings, she still had theoretical knowledge.

"Is it really true that the only way to obtain the complete technology is to go to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School?"

Hu Liena knew where the blueprints for the Soul Power Battery were, but she wouldn't go there unless absolutely necessary. She knew very well how powerful the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was now, and for her Soul Emperor level strength to go there would be suicide.

This is also why she has been causing unrest at the border.

Most importantly, according to her intelligence, Xu Yang, that supermodel, has been in seclusion within the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. She doesn't think her team can escape his perception.

Just then, a gust of wind suddenly blew by, and all the scoundrels of soul masters on the street stood still, as if they had been frozen in place. Then, the next second, all of these soul masters fell to the ground, blood streaming from their necks, clearly indicating that someone had slit their throats with a knife.

"what?!"

Hu Liena was in disbelief. She hadn't noticed the attack at all, not even a trace of soul power. Keep in mind, she was a Soul Emperor, and one with several spirit attribute soul rings. In terms of perception, she was definitely among the strongest Soul Masters. Now, someone was killing her right in front of her, and she hadn't noticed at all. What kind of strength did the attacker have?

"So it was you leading the team! No wonder these guys are so excited and acting recklessly without considering the consequences."

Just then, a deep, magnetic voice sounded behind Hu Liena, instantly making her tense and afraid to move. Someone who could appear behind her so silently was no match for her.

Besides, she felt that the voice was somewhat familiar, as if she had heard it somewhere before.

On the rooftops not far away, the Spirit Hall's Soul Masters lay scattered on the ground, each with a deep gash on their neck, blood flowing incessantly and dripping down the eaves.

Xu Yang looked Hu Liena up and down and understood why the territory that had been stabilized was fluctuating again. Hu Liena's charm could bewitch minds and arouse the desires deep in the hearts of Soul Masters.

Most Soul Masters are not good people, especially those at the lower levels. Humanity is nothing to them; they are all people who live on the edge, and killing and robbing are commonplace.

Currently, the Spirit Hall, the Star Luo Empire, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School are all busy fighting wars and have tightened their finances, leaving them with no extra money to subsidize lower-level spirit masters.

Without subsidies, the lives of those Soul Masters, who were already barely better off than ordinary people, became insecure. It's easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality.

This inevitably led these Soul Masters to harbor wicked thoughts. Coupled with Hu Liena's bewitching Soul Skill, their wicked intentions were amplified, and they naturally thought of robbing the money and resources of ordinary people to maintain their extravagant lifestyle.

"It really was you, Xu Yang!"

After thinking for a moment, Hu Liena finally remembered who the voice belonged to. She turned her head and saw that it was indeed the person she was thinking of, and she couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

Then she realized what was happening and said incredulously, "I never thought that such a small matter would attract someone like you to come here in person."

"What's wrong with me? I'm just a level 79 Soul Saint now!" Xu Yang said casually.

After his primordial spirit successfully transformed, his soul power also reached level 79. He was only one level away from obtaining his eighth soul ring and advancing to Soul Douluo, which was a remarkable progress.

"monster!"

Hu Liena cursed inwardly. If she remembered correctly, Xu Yang was still a Soul Emperor a year ago. In just one year, he had advanced ten levels and was still at the Soul Saint stage. What else could he be but a monster?

She remained calm on the surface, forcing herself to be composed, and said, "I am just a minor Soul Emperor. There is no need for a Soul Master with the strength of a Limit Douluo to personally intervene. If this gets out, it will probably damage your reputation."

"Reputation?! Sorry, I've never cared about that kind of thing!" Xu Yang moved slightly, and in an instant, he was in front of Hu Liena. He lifted her chin with his finger and said indifferently.

Hu Liena was startled and instinctively tried to back away, but Xu Yang's aura firmly suppressed her. She gritted her teeth, a resolute glint in her eyes, "Xu Yang, even if you kill me, it won't matter. The Martial Soul Empire will not let you go, nor will it give up on unifying the entire continent."

Xu Yang chuckled, "That would be perfect, because I share the same idea. To unify the continent and bring peace to this land completely."

As he spoke, he reached forward and grabbed the man's neck, applying slight pressure, and continued in a cold voice, "That's why I'm already at odds with the Spirit Hall. You're inciting Spirit Masters to cause trouble here, and that's not what I want to see."

Hu Liena's pretty face flushed red, and despair appeared in her eyes. She could tell that Xu Yang really wanted to kill her.

"Crack!"

Hu Liena's neck tilted, and her aura grew weaker and weaker. She was only a Soul Emperor, and her spine remained a fatal weakness. Xu Yang didn't show any mercy just because she was a beautiful woman.

"Wow!"

Xu Yang activated his solar soul power and ignited the true fire of the sun in Hu Liena's right hand. Hu Liena didn't even have time to scream before she was burned to ashes in the blink of an eye. The ashes drifted away with the wind, and thus, the saintess of this generation perished.

After dealing with Hu Liena, Xu Yang didn't rest. He used his divine sense to scan the entire city of Xilu, and all the Soul Masters who oppressed civilians and robbed resources were identified.
