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

Chapter 70 Taking Medicine
As they were talking, another person knocked on the door and walked into the room, kneeling before Shangguan Wei'er.

"Alliance leader, the people who went to the Tianhun Empire have returned."

"Have you found that batch of goods?" Shangguan Wei'er stretched her arms lazily.

"Not yet, but another matter has been resolved." The person who just entered raised his head slightly, "Our people have seen a very rare martial spirit in the Sky Soul Empire."

"Oh?" Shangguan Wei'er became interested and sat up straight again. "What is it?"

"Angel spirit."

As soon as she finished speaking, Shangguan Wei'er's mouth curled up slightly. She didn't speak for a moment, but looked through the window at the street outside.

"Okay, the evil soul master destroyed my Ordinary Alliance's business, how can we let it go so easily? No need to look for the goods anymore, just bring that person back."

"Yes, Alliance Leader."

On the other side, Lin Xiao walked out of Qiwu Garden and took a deep breath of the air on the street. The fragrance at the tip of his nose became a little lighter. The night wind blew, and a chill rose on his back. Only then did he realize that a layer of sweat had appeared on his body without him knowing when.

Communicating with Shangguan Wei'er, who often deals with people and understands people's hearts, is no less than going through a tough battle. During the casual conversation at the table, Lin Xiao has paid special attention, but he is not sure how much Shangguan Wei'er has gained from their conversation.

He had already guessed that his invitation was probably related to his meeting with Xu Tianran some time ago. As the crown prince of the Sun Moon Empire, and with the incident of the second prince, naturally many people were paying attention to what was happening around Xu Tianran.

Lin Xiao also attracted a lot of attention because of this. However, although it was a coincidence, if it hadn't happened, with his current strength, he probably wouldn't have had the opportunity to connect with the Pingfan League and Shangguan Wei'er. If he could use it well, it might not be a bad thing.

After calming down and relaxing his mind, Lin Xiao glanced around and walked away along the street. However, he was not heading back to the academy, but to the Holy Spirit Church branch.

It was no secret that people from Qiwuyuan appeared in the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy. Lin Xiao was sure that besides him, there were other people from the Holy Spirit Church in the academy. This news could not be hidden from the eyes and ears of the Holy Spirit Church, so he went out to the branch temple on the night he received the invitation.

Now that the banquet is over, I must return to report. Disciples who have undergone the Spirit Ascension Ceremony should naturally be loyal to the Holy Spirit Church.

"So the Pingfan League is looking for you just to find out about Xu Tianran?"

"Yes, teacher."

In the Holy Spirit Church branch, Lin Xiao had changed back into his church attire, and the voice behind the mask was a little unclear.

"How did you respond?"

"Teacher, Shangguan Wei'er knows countless people. I told her the truth, but I concealed some details."

"Yes." Sleepy Nightmare Douluo nodded, "She didn't ask about the affairs of the sect?"

"No." Lin Xiao shook his head.

"Looks like you've learned your lesson," Nightmare Douluo sneered. "When the Holy Church first entered Mingdu, many people inquired about it openly and secretly, but I've always trusted the loyalty of its disciples." Lin Xiao remained silent, but admitted that Nightmare Douluo was telling the truth. Those disciples in the Holy Spirit Church who truly knew those secrets had all undergone the Spirit Ascension Ceremony, so there was no need to worry about them betraying the Holy Spirit Church.

Sleepy Nightmare Douluo lowered his head in thought and slowly took two steps forward. "But this is an opportunity. Since the Ordinary Alliance can inquire about us everywhere, why can't we explore the Ordinary Alliance's true strength?"

"If someone from the Ordinary Alliance comes looking for you again, you can reveal some insignificant matters within the sect." Sleepy Nightmare Douluo turned and looked at Lin Xiao. "She suspects you of a special identity, doesn't she? Then make her suspicion a reality."

"I understand, Master," Lin Xiao agreed with his head bowed. If it had been before the Ascension Ceremony, Sleepy Nightmare Douluo would never have made such a decision. He was also afraid that he would actually leak the secrets of the Holy Spirit Cult.

But now, after the soul-raising ceremony, he no longer had any guard against himself.

"Okay, go back first. We can only wait for them to come to us. If we take the initiative to do it, it will seem less real."

"Yes."

It was already late when we came out of Qiwuyuan, and the trip to the branch temple took quite a while. It was already late at night when we got back to the dormitory.

However, Lin Xiao didn't just rest. He sat cross-legged on the bed and took out a brocade box from his soul storage device. He still accepted Shangguan Wei'er's "reward". Such good things were never too much, so there was no reason to be modest.

Lin Xiao couldn't tell the exact age of the whale glue in the box, but since it was produced by the Ordinary Alliance, its quality couldn't be too low. As soon as he took a sip, a warm current flowed into his stomach, then spread throughout his limbs. With every breath, a faint fragrance lingered in his mouth.

"call--"

Lin Xiao exhaled lightly, and the air from his mouth seemed to become a little hotter. In the darkness, his skin all over his body began to turn red visibly, and beads of sweat continued to overflow from his forehead.

He naturally knew what the reaction would be after taking this extremely yang and strong tonic. He endured the discomfort of his body and slapped the storage soul guide. Another large object appeared in front of him.

It was the Star Vein Grass that was brought out from the wolf den.

Sand and stones kept falling from the huge block of earth and landed on his bed, but Lin Xiao had no time to care about them. Instead, he reached out and picked a leaf of the Star Vein Grass and put it into his mouth.

Suddenly, a cool feeling spread from his mouth, then flowed down his chest to his stomach, instantly making him much more awake.

In stark contrast to the extremely yang and strong whale glue, star vein grass grows in damp and dark caves. It is an extremely cold substance. Taking it at this time can just neutralize the side effects of whale glue.

Two drugs with opposite properties but similar effects entered Lin Xiao's body at the same time. Instead of canceling each other out, the effects blended together and amplified each other. Lin Xiao could even clearly feel that every muscle in his body was changing.

After swallowing one piece of grass leaf after another, in the pitch-black dormitory, Lin Xiao's skin actually emitted a faint fluorescence like the star vein grass, and beneath the skin, the blood was rushing rapidly under the stimulation of whale glue.

The two medicinal ingredients come from animals, plants, deep sea and mountains. One is dynamic and the other is static, one is positive and the other is negative. The two forces intertwine and blend with each other, invisibly improving Lin Xiao's physical strength.

Lin Xiao sat cross-legged on the bed, his brows slightly furrowed. The two forces made his face flicker. The soul bone on his left arm even lit up on its own, and the silver-gray light enveloped his entire left arm.
