Douluo Jueshi: I Don't Want to Be an Evil Soul Master

Chapter 172 Tribe
The Great Elder looked the same as the last time Lin Xiao saw her. The black cloak she wore seemed even larger than the others, completely covering her entire body. It was impossible to tell what was underneath the cloak.

"Great Elder."

Lin Xiao clasped his fists, but the Great Elder did not respond. Instead, a burning gaze came out from under the cloak, constantly looking at him.

After a moment, she finally spoke slowly, "Where have you been during this time?"

Lin Xiao didn't look up. "Replying to the elder, the sect has assigned a task to the disciples."

"Heh, quite cautious. Even I don't want to say more." The Great Elder chuckled. "He must be helping Xu Tianran."

Hearing this, Lin Xiao raised his head slightly.

The Great Elder noticed his gaze and laughed again, "In the Holy Church, although the worshippers have higher cultivation, they only enjoy the resources of the church and do not care too much about the affairs of the church."

"The true administrators of the Holy Religion are the Religious Master and the elders. I am quite clear about what you are about to do." The Great Elder paused for a moment, "Your teacher probably hasn't told you these things, has he?"

Lin Xiao remained silent, just listening quietly. However, the Great Elder seemed to have already had the answer, and his tone was quite firm.

"It's really strange. As a Holy Envoy, you should be the elders' representative. Especially during the time when Old Eight was away from headquarters, all the matters he was responsible for should be handed over to you, but you are doing the same things as those ordinary disciples."

The Great Elder suddenly stood up and slowly walked towards Lin Xiao. "Did Old Eight forget about this matter, or did he never consider you a true disciple? The so-called Holy Envoy is just a nominal position to facilitate your assistance to him."

The Great Elder didn't seem to have the slightest aura of a Titled Douluo. When he got closer, there was only a faint smell of sea water, which was somewhat similar to the scene Lin Xiao had seen in his dream a few days ago.

She guessed correctly. When they had fought, Sleepy Nightmare Douluo had already revealed the truth. Although they were master and disciple in name only, he had never considered Lin Xiao his disciple, but rather a vessel.

Giving him the title of Holy Envoy was probably to lay a solid foundation for him to become an elder again after successfully taking over another body.

The Great Elder speculated as he slowly walked around Lin Xiao. "Although I'm not sure what Old Eight is planning, I can roughly guess a thing or two."

"His martial spirit has no physical form, and it naturally has the advantage of occupying other people's bodies. Your cultivation is getting higher and higher, and I think that day will be getting closer and closer."

"Do you think that when Lao Ba returns to headquarters, he will attack this body he has carefully cultivated for many years?"

The Great Elder suddenly raised his hand, and his white jade-like palm under his cloak touched Lin Xiao's chin.

Lin Xiao lowered his eyes slightly and saw that the color between the elder's fingers was as light blue as the sea water, and there were scaly lines on his wrist.

She had indeed guessed exactly what Sleepy Nightmare Douluo was thinking, but the only thing she hadn't expected was that Sleepy Nightmare Douluo would never come back.

When Lin Xiao first came into contact with Electrolux, the aura Electrolux unintentionally released made Sleepy Nightmare Douluo feel fearful.

Therefore, he chose to act in advance, and as a result, his soul is still in Lin Xiao's martial soul.

"What? You don't believe what I say?" The elder's fingertips brushed across Lin Xiao's chin, bringing a cool feeling.

"Great Elder, the leader said you have something for me to do. Please give me your instructions." Lin Xiao took a step back and bowed slightly.

"Boring." The Great Elder suddenly withdrew his hand and hid it under his cloak again. "Have you been near the icy sea these days?"

"Yes." After hesitating for a moment, Lin Xiao nodded without hiding anything.

The Great Elder always carried the scent of seawater, and judging by the veins on his wrist, her martial spirit was probably connected to a sea-spirit beast, which was why she could detect his aura. Besides, the Great Elder already knew what he was going to do, so there was no need to hide it.

"Did you encounter anything strange?" "Like...hearing any sounds or something..."

The elder lowered his voice slightly and leaned close to Lin Xiao's ear, "Just like now..."

Ever since he first met the Great Elder, Lin Xiao had sensed a strange power in her voice that could affect his mind.

Even the two disciples at the headquarters door had their memories confused just by hearing the Great Elder's voice.

Now that the Great Elder was so close, and under deliberate control, it seemed that his soul power was spreading along with the sound.

Lin Xiao was slightly stunned. It seemed that the stone chamber in front of him was no longer the headquarters of the Holy Spirit Church. Instead, he seemed to be standing on the beach. Even the sea breeze blowing on his cheeks was extremely clear.

wrong!

Lin Xiao's heart suddenly shook, and he came to his senses. When he looked up, he saw the Great Elder standing in front of him and staring at him.

I calmed my breath a little and thought carefully about the feeling just now. It was as if I was in a dream, and it was exactly the same as when I was at the edge of the ice sea.

After a pause, Lin Xiao suddenly spoke, "Great Elder, were you at the beach at that time?"

"It wasn't me." The elder's tone finally changed, as if there was a hint of resentment. "That was one of my people."

Tribe?

After hearing the legend of the siren from the young man before, he guessed that the so-called "siren" should be real, and was probably the sea soul beast that had been seen by others.

The word "tribe members" made Lin Xiao think of a lot of things in an instant.

"What a smart child! It seems you have already guessed it." The elder seemed to see through Lin Xiao's thoughts.

He was not sure just now, but as soon as this sentence came out, Lin Xiao knew that his idea was right.

He had many speculations about this mysterious elder. Perhaps she was guarding a very important place in the Holy Spirit Church and could not escape easily.

Or maybe she has a very important identity in public and cannot return to the headquarters at any time.

But he hadn't considered that the Great Elder wasn't a human at all, but a soul beast. Furthermore, it was most likely a sea soul beast closely related to the "sirens" of the Ice Sea.

"The song you heard comes from the mermaid clan in the sea. Perhaps you would be more familiar with it if it were called the sea princess clan."

"When you humans see the beauty of mermaids, you call them 'sea princesses', believing them to be princesses of the ocean, but you never care whether their songs bring beautiful melodies..."

"It's still death to the bone."

The Great Elder's gaze under his cloak seemed to be real and intimidating as it came towards Lin Xiao. A cold aura immediately filled his surroundings.

The soul power in the body and the spiritual power in the sea of ​​​​spirituality surged together, and even the Higanbana martial spirit seemed to resonate faintly with this breath of death.
