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

Chapter 88 Robbers
Time passed quickly, and noon passed in the blink of an eye. Lin Xiao put away the engraved core magic circle, and then walked out of the soul guide test area with a normal expression, just like usual.

Although he seemed to have created something extraordinary by chance, Lin Xiao had no intention of showing it to others.

Even among ninth-level soul guides, alloy-like materials with completely new properties rarely appear. Lin Xiao knows what kind of turmoil his discovery will cause once others know about it, and he can also guess what kind of benefits he will get as the first soul guide to discover this alloy.

But at the same time, he also knew that with his current level of cultivation, he was still far from being able to grasp such immense wealth.

Growing up in the Holy Spirit Church, he never minded speculating about others with the greatest malice, not to mention that he was an evil soul master hated by everyone. Even if he was a good person, there were always people who would take risks in the face of enviable wealth.

It's okay for him to study it secretly by himself, but telling outsiders is probably impossible until he has the strength to match it.

It was noon, and the number of soul masters fighting near the arena had decreased a lot. Only a few scattered students were standing around some remote arenas, and they didn't look like they were going to rest yet.

"boom--"

"boom--"

The sounds of several soul guide cannons came from the ring, and Lin Xiao suddenly stopped.

There is naturally no shortage of sounds from soul guide cannons here, but Lin Xiao, who is now a third-level soul guide, still heard something unusual from these sounds.

The person who launched these attacks did not use the soul guide devices commonly used by the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Guide Academy, and the method of engraving the magic array was also unusual.

Moreover, he is able to launch several consecutive attacks at almost the same time, and his ability to control soul guides is also impressive.

Lin Xiao often comes to the soul guide experimental area, and has never heard of such an excellent soul guide appearing anywhere.

After looking around with some curiosity, Lin Xiao's gaze suddenly paused.

On the ring not far in front of him, two children about eleven or twelve years old were fighting each other. The boy was dressed in gold and looked quite free and easy. It seemed that his opponent did not bring him too much pressure.

On the other side, there was a little girl in snow-white. Her style of attack was somewhat like that of a practical control department soul engineer, but the connection between her soul guides was even more skillful than those of the senior practical control department students.

And Lin Xiao was no stranger to her.

A thought flashed through his mind, and Lin Xiao looked at the boy again. Seeing that he was covered with soul guide cannons but did not look tired at all, he roughly guessed who he was.

Soul masters have outstanding memories, so even though they had only met once, Lin Xiao still recognized the girl on the ring as Jing Hongchen's granddaughter Meng Hongchen, and it was not difficult to guess who was opposite her.

No wonder Lin Xiao felt something was wrong from the voice just now. The one who launched the attack was Jing Hongchen's grandson Xiao Hongchen. Possessing a martial soul like the three-legged golden toad, he was born with the ability to control metal. Therefore, the attack just now was not a real soul guide cannon, but a soul guide device temporarily constructed by his martial soul on the basis of the soul guide array.

It turned out that they had also entered the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy.

"You've been watching for a long time. Do you want to come up and have a few moves?"

Just as Lin Xiao was thinking, Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen, the brother and sister, had stopped fighting on the ring. Xiao Hongchen looked at Lin Xiao below the ring and raised his chin.

Meng Hongchen also looked at Lin Xiao, stared at him for a moment, as if he suddenly remembered something, took two steps back and hid behind Xiao Hongchen.

"No need, let's talk about it later when we have a chance." Lin Xiao smiled and turned to walk away.

Xiao Hongchen did not stay any longer. He watched Lin Xiao's back disappear, and then looked at his sister behind him with some suspicion.

"Meng, you usually can't walk past handsome guys, what's wrong with you today?" Meng Hongchen blushed slightly and punched Xiao Hongchen lightly.

"Grandpa told me to stay away from him."

"Stay away from him?" Xiao Hongchen glanced at the direction where Lin Xiao left with some surprise. "Why?"

"I don't know." Meng Hongchen shook his head. "Grandpa just said he was dangerous."

"Grandpa really said that?" Xiao Hongchen didn't take it seriously. "Then if I get the chance in the future, I'm really going to try to see how dangerous he is."

"By the way, speaking of Grandpa, why hasn't he come over yet so late today? Is he researching some soul guide again? In that case, we should send someone over."

Xiao Hongchen said this as he jumped off the stage and looked up into the distance.

On the other side, Lin Xiao was not too surprised to meet Xiao Hongchen and his sister. After all, as long as they were in the academy, it was only a matter of time before they met.

At this moment, he was rushing to the dormitory. The Soul Guidance Experimental Area was crowded with people and eyes, and he hadn't even examined the alloy he had made that morning. The dormitory was much quieter. Although there were many secret guards in the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Academy, they wouldn't just poke around in the student dormitories for no reason.

However, when he pushed open the door of the dormitory, his heart suddenly moved.

After closing the door quietly, Lin Xiao sat cross-legged on the bed and closed his eyes.

"Didn't you say before that you didn't want to meditate?" A sinister voice suddenly sounded in Lin Xiao's ears.

"Teacher." Lin Xiao stood up in surprise. "Compared to the previous method, meditation is indeed much slower, but it is better than doing nothing."

The figure of Sleepy Nightmare Douluo slowly emerged and stared at Lin Xiao for a while without making any further comments.

"Teacher, why did you come to the academy at this time? Didn't you say that the academy has strict security..."

"Humph, this time it was Jing Hongchen who personally invited me in."

Lin Xiao raised his head slightly when he heard this. "Teacher, is the Holy Church going to cooperate with Mingde Hall again?"

It would have been fine if Lin Xiao didn't mention it, but as soon as he opened his mouth, Sleepy Nightmare Douluo's face suddenly darkened.

"This isn't a good thing. A batch of materials being shipped from the west to Mingdu was intercepted."

"So Jing Hongchen wants the Holy Church to help him investigate..." Lin Xiao continued speaking according to what Sleepy Nightmare Douluo said, but soon he realized that something was wrong.

Mingde Hall isn't just the inner courtyard of the Sun-Moon Imperial Soul Guidance Academy; it's also the entire Sun-Moon Empire's soul guidance research institute. Even if something unexpected happens, seeking help from the royal family is much more helpful than turning to the Holy Spirit Church. So why would they suddenly invite someone from the Holy Spirit Church into Mingde Hall? Unless...

"Teacher, this batch of goods...is it made by an evil soul master?"

Lin Xiao spoke hesitantly.

"I knew you would guess this." Sleepy Nightmare Douluo raised his eyes and glanced at Lin Xiao. "You are right. The night before last, not far from Mingdu, someone posing as an evil spirit master stole things from Mingde Hall."
