Civilian Soul Masters in Douluo World

Chapter 20 True and False News
Tieli decided to secretly follow Niu Dahuang to find out what was going on.

Niu Dahuang was an ordinary person, unaware of the value of spirit bones. Cheng Lao Da was a genuine spirit master, so how could he not know the value of spirit bones? And how could he let Niu Dahuang steal them?

At this time, Niu Dahuang was still excited and was imagining the scene of becoming the boss in the future. By then, he would be a well-known figure.

It was not until he saw the mansion where Boss Cheng lived that he put his thoughts to rest.

As usual, he sneaked in through the side door of the mansion.

A slightly plump lady was putting on makeup in front of the mirror, with boxes of expensive rouge and powder in front of her.

Just as she was concentrating on putting on makeup, she felt a familiar touch on her abdomen.

"Why are you here in broad daylight? When did you become so bold?" A hint of shyness flashed across the woman's face.

"Didn't you ask me to find an outsider spirit master last time to deal with Boss Cheng?"

"Did you really find him? How strong is he? Can you deal with him?" the woman asked in surprise.

But before the two of them started for long, they saw a figure outside the door, a figure that made them tremble with fear.

The figure looked thin, with dark and dry skin, and only his eyes revealed a cruel look.

"They are indeed an adulterer and a whore."

"Boss... I came to look for you, but I accidentally walked into the wrong room. I..." Niu Dahuang wanted to explain, but was interrupted by Boss Cheng.

"Do you think I don't know anything?"

"Since you knew, why did you..." The woman couldn't understand. Since he knew about the dirty deeds between her and his men, why didn't he stop it, but let this situation continue for so long?

"Because of your brother, do you think the spirit bones are real? They are all fake. I used them to trick you. I thought you would only tell your brother, but I didn't expect you to tell him too."

"Then what are you now..." Suddenly, the woman understood that all this was Boss Cheng's plan. As long as she figured out one point, she would understand everything else.

“When he learned I had a spirit bone, he immediately gathered his men and planned to assassinate me by surprise, but he didn’t know I had already set a trap for him;
I'll send you to meet him now. He might have just started his journey. Let your brother talk to you about it then!"

Two white soul rings emerged from under Boss Cheng's body, a layer of gray fur appeared on his body, and his pointed incisors grew to his lower jaw.

"Hiccup"

The sharp teeth bit off the necks of the adulterer and the adulteress. Such a bloody scene naturally fell into Tieli's eyes.

Tieli didn't expect that the news about the soul bones was fake, and he used it to frame him... No, there was a flaw in his words, why did he have to use soul bones?
There are many treasures that can make these underground rats bold and daring, so why did he choose the most precious soul bone?
For a soul master living at the bottom of society, treasures worth thousands of gold will attract them; but if they get news of a treasure that they may not be able to get their hands on in their lifetime, they will instead become suspicious.

Tieli thought this was very problematic.

"boom"

Tieli stepped on the tiles on the roof and landed in front of Boss Cheng.

"Oh? I thought you would just leave after you knew the fake news about the spirit bones. Isn't it good that we pretend not to know each other when we both know the truth?"

"Where is the soul bone?" Tieli asked directly.

"Haha, you actually believe it! Even if I ran to the street and shouted that I have a spirit bone, I'm afraid people would think I'm crazy. You actually believe it? Hahaha, it's ridiculous."

"Just now I only believed it 50%, but now I believe it 80%."

"Oh?" Boss Cheng stopped laughing and a cold look appeared in his eyes.

"No one trusts people like you. You definitely wouldn't choose to hide something as important as a soul bone in that place. If I'm guessing correctly, the soul bone is on you, right?"

As soon as Tieli finished speaking, Boss Cheng's first soul ring lit up, and a white light enveloped his body, and his speed exploded instantly.

"呲呲"

A flash of lightning burst out from Tieli's right hand, and a forging hammer appeared in the lightning. The scale-like ripples on the hammer were tempered by the lightning, and it was like a thunder python wriggling on the hammer.

A yellow soul ring floated up and down the hammer, appearing particularly dazzling.

The first soul skill, thunder hammer!
The forging hammer was covered with a layer of thunder armor, wrapping every part of it, spreading all the way to the handle, climbing up Tieli's right hand that was holding the hammer handle, and all the way to his forearm.

In addition to the forging hammer covered with thunder armor, Tieli's forearm also has an extra layer of thunder armor.

Boss Cheng's outburst was very fast at that moment, but it was clearly captured by Tieli's eyes.

The thunder hammer breaks through the air with a whirring sound. The power of this hammer is extremely strong, and it will also cause high damage from lightning.

Boss Cheng sensed the danger, his second soul ring lit up, his thin forelimbs suddenly swelled, and his strengthened rat claws wanted to be the first to pierce Tieli's body.

"boom"

The thunder hammer hit the boss's head without any hindrance, and the burst of lightning destroyed his body wantonly, turning it into a charred piece in an instant.

Before Boss Cheng died, there was disbelief in his pupils as his claws were blocked by a hard object.

Tieli had been wearing iron inner armor. If the opponent had a hundred-year soul skill, he would naturally not dare to risk his life. However, the opponent only had a ten-year soul skill and was a great soul master with two ten-year soul rings.

This iron inner armor is not made of ordinary iron blocks. Tie Niu added iron essence during the forging process.

Tieli glanced at his right arm covered by thunder armor and tried to move the thunder hammer to his left arm.

Sure enough, the thunder armor on the right arm quickly fell off, and a layer of thunder armor spread over the left arm holding the thunder hammer.

Even though the boss's soul power level is higher than his own, his physical strength is definitely inferior to his own, especially during this period of time, with the help of the Millennium Thunder Python's inner alchemy training, every time he increases his soul power by one level, the accompanying physical attributes are far beyond the past.

With his current soul power level of seventeen, his physical strength is no less than that of a twenty-level great soul master of the assault system.

After retrieving his martial spirit, Tieli came to Boss Cheng's body and began to search.

"No?"

Then, Tieli saw the ring on his right index finger and took it off.

"It is indeed a storage type soul guide device." Tieli was delighted. He did not expect that a city boss could actually get a storage type soul guide device.

As long as you attach your mental power to the storage ring, you can find out the items in the storage space.

Although there is only one cubic meter of storage space, it is more than enough for me now.

"That's it, isn't it?"

Tieli saw an iron box, from which a faint fluctuation of soul power was released.
