Douluo: The Peerless Tang Sect - The Ordinary Life of a Supporting Character

When the Sleeping Demon Douluo died at Jialing Pass, the Holy Spirit Cult only knew that he had never returned and guessed that he was dead, but did not know who was responsible.

However, Ming Lei and Youming Douluo died within the territory of the Sun Moon Empire, not far from the headquarters of the Holy Spirit Cult in the Demon Forest.

Although the two bodies had been burned to ashes, the traces left behind were not easily erased.

Such a commotion was noticed by some people even from a great distance.

Wang Nan's name had been mentioned more than once within the Holy Spirit Cult. Therefore, when Nangong Wan clearly saw the coiled dragon staff landing on him, he already knew who he had encountered.

Although the Sun Moon Empire occupied most of the Heavenly Soul Empire's territory, it was only a little effort for a Title Douluo to bypass their defenses. Then, under the sensing of the Heavenly Floating Dragon, Wang Nan quickly "encountered" Nangong Wan, who was on his way.

Although Wang Nan knocked him down from the air with a single blow, Nangong Wan was still a Title Douluo. As he drew closer to the ground, he finally forced himself to endure the discomfort within his body and circulated his soul power.

Nangong Wan's body plummeted to the ground, creating a deep crater and sending dust billowing into the air.

It blocked the view into the pit.

The spreading yellowish-brown dust quickly turned dark green. A gentle breeze arose from nowhere, and the swirling dark green dust instantly headed towards Wang Nan.

Wang Nan was chasing Nangong Wan as he fell from mid-air. Before he even got close, he saw the rising dark green poisonous mist. His mind raced, his first soul ring lit up, and he instantly retreated. Two dark green lights emerged from the mist, grazing Wang Nan's body as they rushed into the air.

When their first attack missed, the two dark green beams of light turned back like vines.

Wang Nan simply held the Panlong Staff horizontally at his waist, swept it halfway around, his soul core spun, and his spiritual power, blood energy, and soul power perfectly merged into one. With the force concentrated at the tip of the staff, a powerful force swept out, not only shattering the two light and shadow figures, but also causing the surrounding poisonous mist to thin out considerably under the attack.

Nangong Wan finally reappeared from the poisonous fog. However, he was no longer human; his figure had become enormous, and a dark green centipede gradually became clear in the poisonous fog.

He had heard of Wang Nan's name; even Ming Lei and Youming Douluo had fallen to Wang Nan's hands. Naturally, he dared not be careless in the slightest and immediately used his Martial Soul True Body.

Looking at Wang Nan, who was radiating golden light, the light from the Nangong Bowl lingered on the Panlong Staff for a moment.

"The biggest mistake the Holy Church made was not taking you away sooner, allowing you to grow to this point," Nangong Wan's voice came from the centipede's mouth. "It's just a pity that the Holy Church found out the secret of the Panlong Staff too late."

As he spoke, Nangong Wan's body grew darker and darker, his enormous body turning almost entirely black. He stood tall, and a foul-smelling poisonous mist rose up around him.

The pitch-black ninth spirit ring lit up, the poisonous mist spread, and the surrounding space seemed to be corroded and cracked as if it could not bear the weight, and the whole body immediately became dilapidated.

However, the next moment, the shattered space continued to spread towards Wang Nan, while Nangong Wan himself turned around and fled into the distance.

Nangong Wan is still the same Nangong Wan. Facing an opponent like Wang Nan, he never thought of defeating Wang Nan from the beginning, and he never even thought of fighting him head-on.

Whether it was his Martial Soul True Body or his Ninth Soul Skill, he had always been looking for an opportunity to escape. Now, seeing the poisonous mist of his Ninth Soul Skill enveloping Wang Nan, he seized the opportunity to try and flee.

Wang Nan's expression remained unchanged, only his fifth spirit ring glowed with a dark golden light. He pointed the Coiled Dragon Staff forward, and the giant dragon coiled around the staff instantly left the staff and continued to fly forward.

The attack of the fifth soul skill arrived in an instant. Nangong Wan only heard a dragon's roar behind him. As soon as he turned around, he was enveloped in a golden light. His ninth soul ring, which was still emitting light, was extinguished instantly, and all his soul power stopped at that moment.

The poisonous fog surrounding Wang Nan had gone out of control. Without the support of his soul skills, Wang Nan moved and left his original spot.

The enormous dragon-shaped staff seemed to strike from the sky, landing on Nangong Wan. His body landed on the ground once again, but this time he could no longer use his soul power to offset the impact. The giant centipede landed solidly on the ground and disappeared.

As Nangong Wan coughed up blood, he tried to get up from the ground. Just as he raised his head, he saw the golden dragon-patterned staff pointing directly at his forehead.

"You just mentioned the secret of the Dragon-Panning Staff. How did you know that?"

"Can you let me go if I tell you?" Hearing Wang Nan's voice, Nangong Wan didn't get up, but just lay on the ground. "Although I am a member of the Holy Spirit Cult, I haven't done too many bad things."

"Furthermore, I can act as your informant; I can tell you everything the Holy Spirit teaches me to know."

I will relay any news from the church to you from now on.

"Answer my question first," Wang Nan said noncommittally.

"Yes, yes. Some time ago, the Sun Moon Empire captured some children in Tiandou City. Some of these children's abilities were very effective against the Holy Church, no, no, the Holy Spirit Church's abilities. We only found out about the Panlong Staff after interrogating them."

"What about the children?"

Upon hearing Wang Nan's words, Nangong Wan's mind raced. Wang Nan's martial spirit was also the Panlong Staff, and his appearance within the Heavenly Soul Empire was such a coincidence; he was probably here for the children. He knew the children were likely in grave danger, but telling the truth now would probably mean certain death for him as well.

"After the interrogation, those children were all transported to Dongyang City." Before Wang Nan could ask, Nangong Wan spoke up, "We have an agreement with the soul beasts in the sea. They keep attacking the city and causing casualties. We will collect the souls and blood of humans and soul beasts to sacrifice to the soul beasts."

"A sacrifice to a soul beast?"

"Yes, yes, it was a huge soul beast that looked very much like a whale. We discovered it a few years ago. It had many old wounds, otherwise even the sect leader probably wouldn't have been a match for it."

"Our leader saw its fighting prowess and used a blood sacrifice to heal its wounds in exchange for its service to the Holy Spirit Cult."

A whale-shaped soul beast. Upon hearing Nangong Wan's mention, Wang Nan quickly recalled his time cultivating in the icy sea.

The soul beast we saw at the bottom of the sea.

Seeing Wang Nan remain silent, Nangong Wan's eyes flickered, and he spoke again, "Those children might still be alive. I was originally going to Dongyang City to deliver sacrificial offerings. If you let me leave, I can gather information for you."

Wang Nan stared at Nangong Wan for a moment, then slowly withdrew his right hand from the Panlong Staff. Just as Nangong Wan was relieved that he had survived, the golden Panlong Staff suddenly enlarged in front of him, and a crisp sound rang out. He then lost consciousness.
