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

Chapter 99 There are still masters
"Meng, you see, I told you that those evil soul masters couldn't be trusted, but Grandpa told me not to get involved. If it weren't for us tonight, I'm afraid these people would have gotten away."

The people who appeared in front of Lin Xiao were none other than the brother and sister Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen. No wonder the voice just now sounded too young.

As for the people they brought, their attire did not look like that of the people from Mingde Hall or the guards of Mingdu, but more like the guards of Jing Hongchen's own family.

"Although I only heard fragments from their reports to Grandpa, I also know that your crimes were all committed around Mingdu, so your residence is actually in Mingdu City."

"Am I right?"

Xiao Hongchen looked at Lin Xiao, who was standing in front of the three people, with a bit of arrogance on his face.

"So, I came here early after receiving the news tonight. I mentioned it to Grandpa many times before, but he didn't want me to get involved. Now that I've brought you back, I want to see what Grandpa has to say."

Lin Xiao pressed the mask to make his voice more vague, "Who is your grandfather?"

"Hmph, you don't need to know yet, get started!"

At Xiao Hongchen's command, all the guards around him rushed forward.

To be chosen by Jing Hongchen as guards, these people naturally had their own unique qualities. Although their cultivation was not very high, their cooperation with each other was quite close.

Attack, paralysis, penetration... various soul-guided rays with different effects shot out from this group of people one after another, and in the blink of an eye, they enveloped him like a big net.

Lin Xiao dodged while his eyes kept scanning these soul masters.

It is not known whether this is a tactic developed by Jing Hongchen. Although Lin Xiao has been studying soul guides for a long time in the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Guide Academy, this is the first time he has seen soul guides used in this way.

If used by two people, this tactic can have the effect of three people. Now that more than ten people attack together, Lin Xiao feels like he is facing an entire well-trained army.

Especially those different soul-guided rays, you need to spend your mind to judge their attack methods before they fall, and you need to be distracted to consider whether to dodge or defend.

Lin Xiao even felt that their soul power and mental power were interconnected, otherwise how could they cooperate so tacitly.

No, that's not right.

Lin Xiao's eyes flashed. He couldn't be sure of his mental strength, but perhaps their soul powers were truly connected. Lin Xiao's gaze swept over the several people one by one, sensing the flow of soul power around them. Perhaps what these people were using was the prototype of a future array soul guide.

Although these people's cultivation was not very high, Lin Xiao had already consumed a lot of energy before. If he continued like this, he might really be caught by them.

"Help me hold it off for a moment."

Lin Xiao glanced at Xiao Hongchen and spoke to Wu Yun in a low voice.

Wu Yun and Wu Yu nodded slightly, looked at each other, and a sharp scream came out of their mouths.

Even if these people have protective soul guides, their defenses will be much weaker when facing mental attacks.

A moment of distraction was enough for Lin Xiao.

If Xiao Hongchen only let this group of people with the prototype of the array soul guide device fight with him, he might really be trapped here, but he appeared in person, and even if he had little soul power left, he still had a way to escape.

Seeing Lin Xiao looking at him, Xiao Hongchen was not at all panicked. Instead, he showed his martial soul. Four soul rings, two yellow and two purple, rose from his side, as if he wanted to compete with Lin Xiao.

There is certainly a reason why Xiao Hongchen is arrogant. He knows his own talent clearly. Even in Shrek Academy, the so-called number one academy on the continent, the students' talents are not as good as his.

Although he has only recently broken through to the Soul Master level, Xiao Hongchen is confident that he can put up a fight even against a Soul Emperor. Moreover, he and Meng Hongchen have other methods at their disposal.

However, when Lin Xiao got closer and closer and the six soul rings around him rose one by one, he was still a little panicked.

Six ten thousand year soul rings, what kind of monster is this?

Xiao Hongchen subconsciously raised a handful of gold powder. Under the control of his martial soul, the gold powder instantly turned into a number of soul-guided cannons hanging on his body. They seemed to have no weight at all, and the light from the muzzles gathered, obviously ready to fire.

Even though there was a gap in soul power, at such a close distance, Lin Xiao would not feel good if he was hit.

However, behind Lin Xiao, the light of the soul guide propulsion device lit up, and his speed suddenly increased. He raised his left hand and touched Xiao Hongchen's gun barrel, and the soul guide cannon on his body instantly collapsed.

Even if it was a real soul guide device, it would be swallowed and absorbed by Lin Xiao under the power of his left arm bone. The soul guide cannon on Xiao Hongchen's body was just condensed by him using his martial soul. If the soul power level exceeded his, it would be easy to silence these soul guide cannons.

"Dream!"

Xiao Hongchen was just an eleven or twelve-year-old boy with good talent. He had been practicing with Jing Hongchen since he was young, so naturally he would not encounter too many setbacks. He took it for granted that he could deal with the evil soul master with his strength.

But at this moment, he was really in danger, and the panic expression on his face could not be concealed at all.

However, this voice was heard by Meng Hongchen and Lin Xiao as well. How could he not know what the brother and sister were going to do?

Seeing Meng Hongchen flying towards him and hearing Xiao Hongchen's call, Lin Xiao suddenly turned around and stretched out his right arm.

Xiao Hongchen was startled to find that a golden protective shield had already enveloped him.

However, his shield did not block anything. Lin Xiao's target was not him at all. When his right arm bent back again, he had already caught Meng Hongchen in his arms, and his right hand was tightly pinching her tender neck.

"Stop it all!"

"Dream!" Xiao Hongchen exclaimed, but still did not dare to move forward.

"You are right, but there is one thing I didn't expect, that is, your cultivation level is not enough to stop us." Lin Xiao looked at Xiao Hongchen.

"If you have the guts, let her go and keep saying things like that!"

"This isn't an arena for you and other kids to play house with. There's more than one way to decide the winner."

Lin Xiao clenched his right hand slightly, and Meng Hongchen coughed twice.

"Well, can you let us go?"

"My grandfather is Jing Hongchen, the head of Mingde Hall."

"Didn't you just refuse to tell me?" Lin Xiao laughed, then suddenly realized something and looked back. "It's easy for me to let her go, but I'm short of some soul guides when I'm away..."

Xiao Hongchen glanced at Meng Hongchen, not knowing what he was thinking, "I can give it to you."

"I don't want your stuff." Lin Xiao suddenly raised his voice. "I think the soul guides on your guards are quite good. I wonder if you could lend me one to observe."
