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

Chapter 321 White Tiger
"The world of the dead?"

Dai Hao repeated the name of this place he had never heard of before.

In just a few short moments, countless memories flooded his mind, making him feel as if he had been reborn, and he was still somewhat dazed.

"You will know if you come with me."

The unfamiliar figure spoke, and before Dai Hao could react, it "pulled" him up, and he floated lightly into the air.

Then, a blinding light suddenly shone before his eyes, and when he opened them again, he was back in the valley.

The man who had fought him earlier was dragging the corpses of the White Tiger Guards into a large pit.

Lin Xiao suddenly turned to look at the souls of Feng Shen and Dai Hao that had appeared to the side.

"I forgot to tell you, for me, death is not the end."

"you--"

Before Dai Hao could speak, Lin Xiao turned her head again and said, "I really don't have time to bury them all, but since they were comrades, it wouldn't be unfair to them to be buried together after they die."

"If you wish, I can bury your body with them."

"Are you an evil soul master?" Although Dai Hao still didn't quite understand the specifics, he roughly realized that he must really be dead, and the person in front of him had the ability to use other people's souls.

“That’s right.” Lin Xiao didn’t deny it. “So what are you going to do?”

"I--"

Dai Hao paused, unsure how to respond. He didn't know how the person before him intended to use his soul, nor did he know if the soul of a dead person could die again.

"Since you don't know either, why don't you stay by my side for now?" Lin Xiao smiled. "Don't worry, I won't force you."

"After all, I have no shortage of souls that are willing to serve me. Forcing them would only distract me. By the way, you still haven't answered me whether you want to be buried with these soldiers."

“This…” Dai Hao hesitated for a moment, “Thank you.”

Lin Xiao waved her hand, walked to the side, and lifted Dai Hao's body up.

“I still have a soul bone inside me. Since I have fallen to this state, the soul bone should belong to you.”

“I saw it.” Lin Xiao nodded. “However, I already have the left arm bone. I’ll keep your ten-thousand-year-old soul bone for now.”

Dai Hao thought for a moment and then remained silent. After all, Lin Xiao possessed three 100,000-year soul rings, so he probably didn't lack soul bones.

Just as Lin Xiao finished dealing with the body and began burying it, Dai Hao suddenly spoke again, "I just heard about the world of the dead... Do all people have souls after they die?"

Lin Xiao paused slightly. "The higher the cultivation level, the stronger the mental strength, and the more likely it is that a soul will appear. Title Douluos like you usually leave behind a complete soul."

"What about those without cultivation?" Dai Hao's tone was slightly anxious.

"It will probably only leave behind a mindless remnant soul."

"So that's how it is." Dai Hao fell silent again.

"Alright." After a moment, Lin Xiao clapped his hands and looked at the huge tomb in front of him.

Upon hearing the sound, Dai Hao slightly raised his head and looked at the simple tombstone in front of the grave. There was no inscription on it, only the simple words "Duke Dai Hao of the White Tiger and his brothers rest here together".

"From this day forward, Dai Hao is dead. You will stay by my side and be called... White Tiger."

The White Tiger slightly raised its head, looking at the world before it with a completely different perspective. It was clearly right in front of it, yet it seemed as if it were still incredibly far away.

Lin Xiao did not put away the white tiger, and even released the Snow Empress to let her see the mountain scenery that was almost impossible to see in the far north.

"This matter is settled, it's time to go back." With that, Lin Xiao lightly stepped forward, and in a flash, he completely disappeared into the valley.

Near the mountain path, soldiers wearing flying soul tools patrolled back and forth, searching for traces of the White Tiger Guards. Then, a figure appeared out of thin air.

"grown ups."

"Let's go. Duke White Tiger is dead. We can go back and report."

High in the Mingdou Mountains, the Sun Moon Empire had already set up camp, and the sounds of the Fire Phoenix Soul Mentor Corps attacking Tianming City could be faintly heard in the distance.

"Reporting to the Marshal, the west gate of Tianming City has been breached, and the Fire Phoenix Soul Mentor Corps has entered the city."

Inside the command tent, the messenger's voice rang out, and Ju Zi abruptly stood up upon hearing it.

The Fire Phoenix Soul Master Corps acted even faster than she had expected, which made her smile involuntarily. "Good, pass on the order: we must not be careless in the street battles in the city. The three great empires' combat power is mainly composed of Soul Masters, and they have an advantage over us in street battles."

"Yes."

The messenger should have left by now, but soon the voice of a guard could be heard outside the door.

"Eighth Elder."

Ju Zi looked up and saw that Lin Xiao had already entered the commander's tent.

"You're back?"

"Mm." Lin Xiao nodded gently, looking at the smile that hadn't faded from Ju Zi's face.

"Have you found the White Tiger Duke's body?"

Lin Xiao shook his head. "He was still alive, but he was determined to die, so I killed him with my own hands."

As Lin Xiao spoke, her gaze fell on Ju Zi's face.

Her expression didn't change much; she didn't feel any joy at having avenged herself. In fact, the news didn't affect her as much as the breach of Tianming City's gates.

"Where is his body?"

"I buried him under the cliff."

Orange nodded, turned around and sat back down in her seat. "After all, he is the commander-in-chief of a country. This is for the best."

"By the way, we just received news from the Fire Phoenix Soul Instructor Group that they have already entered Tianming City. We should be able to enter Tianming City before tonight."

"Next, it depends on whether we can hold Tianming City. Only by establishing a foothold here and making the Star Luo Empire feel threatened can we attract the attention of the other two great empires."

Ju Zi's plan did not surprise Lin Xiao. In his memory, the original Ju Zi used the offensive of the Mingdou Mountains to lure the army of the Tianhun Empire here, then launched a surprise attack on the border of the Tianhun Empire, and pushed the battle line to the capital of the Tianhun Empire, Tiandou City.

The northern border of the Heavenly Soul Empire was almost entirely occupied by the Sun Moon Empire, and there were several mineral veins there that the Heavenly Soul Empire had never discovered.

However, Lin Xiao frowned slightly upon hearing what Ju Zi said.

Ju Zi seemed to notice the change in Lin Xiao's expression, so she got up and took a few steps toward him. "Don't rush. The Star Luo Empire hasn't made a move yet, and our experts can't easily step in."

"I'm not in a hurry." Lin Xiao looked up at Ju Zi and shook her head slightly. "Alright, since there's nothing else for the time being, I'll go out for a bit."

"where are you going?"

“Let’s go to the battlefield and take a look.” Lin Xiao stood up. “Don’t worry, I won’t let anyone else find out before the Star Luo Empire makes a move.”
