Douluo Continent: The Evil Tiger Subdues the Eight Desolations, and Marries Zhu Zhuqing

Zhu Zhuqing was speechless after Lin Ye's retort, and finally managed to squeeze out a sentence:

"Well, I've... held on for a whole day and night."

The voice grew softer and softer until it was almost inaudible.

Lin Ye felt both angry and heartbroken looking at her stubbornness.

He reached out and pressed on Zhu Zhuqing's shoulder, channeling a gentle stream of soul power into her body.

"You're injured, find somewhere to hide first, I'll take care of this beast."

Zhu Zhuqing's face, which had been pale from exhaustion, regained a little color under the nourishment of this soul power.

But when she heard Lin Ye's words, her expression changed instantly.

"don't want!"

Zhu Zhuqing suddenly grabbed Lin Ye's wrist, her purple eyes filled with stubbornness.

"I can still fight!"

"Big kitty, listen to me..."

"I said no!"

Zhu Zhuqing's voice suddenly rose, interrupting him.

She stared intently into Lin Ye's eyes, biting her lower lip, her voice trembling slightly.

"I'm not here to be a burden."

"I came to Death Canyon to become stronger."

"If I don't even deserve to fight alongside you, then all the suffering I've endured this past month has been for nothing!"

When Lin Ye met her stubborn, almost obsessive eyes, the words he was about to say were abruptly cut off.

He knows this girl too well.

Her pride wouldn't allow her to show weakness in front of him, nor would she allow herself to be seen as a useless person who only knows how to hide behind others.

"……OK."

Lin Ye took a deep breath and released her shoulders.

"Same as always, I'll confront you head-on, and you look for an opportunity from the side."

His tone became serious, carrying an unquestionable sense of command.

"But Zhu Zhuqing, listen to me carefully."

Lin Ye rarely called her by her full name; whenever he did, it meant the matter was very serious.

"Be careful. If things go wrong, retreat immediately. Don't be reckless."

"Did you hear me?"

Zhu Zhuqing nodded heavily.

"Um!"

"roar--!"

In the short moment that the two were talking, the Gale Demon Leopard had recovered from the blow of the Thirteen Slashes of the Evil God.

Its blue fur stood on end, and its blood-red eyes were filled with rage.

How could a mere human injure it?

The Gale Leopard suddenly arched its body, gathering strength in its limbs. The cyan patterns on its body began to flash wildly, and a terrifying surge of soul power instantly swept across the surroundings!

It's getting serious.

"They're here!"

Lin Ye's pupils contracted slightly, and his soul power instantly reached its maximum!

"Third Soul Skill, Dark Demon God Transformation!"

boom!

Dark, malevolent energy exploded from Lin Ye's body, black and purple lightning coiled around his entire body, his muscles swelled, and hideous black demonic patterns appeared on his face and arms.

His aura instantly soared to a terrifying level!

Lin Ye didn't probe any further and immediately unleashed his third soul skill!

Because he knew very well that facing a soul beast with nearly 40,000 years of cultivation, holding back was tantamount to playing with his life.

"Aww!"

The Gale Leopard launched the first attack! Its figure instantly transformed into a blue afterimage, moving at a speed so fast that it was almost impossible for the naked eye to catch it, and pounced towards Lin Ye's throat like lightning!

too fast!

Lin Ye's pupils contracted sharply, and he crossed his arms to block in front of him.

boom!

With a muffled thud, Lin Ye was thrown backward three or four meters by the force of the impact, leaving two deep furrows in the rocks beneath his feet!

The sharp pain in his arms made him gasp.

Even with the triple amplification from the Dark Demon Evil God Transformation, a 40,000-year-old soul beast would still struggle to withstand a direct confrontation!

"First Soul Skill, Thirteen Slashes of the Evil God!"

Instead of retreating, Lin Ye advanced, unleashing a series of dark purple crescent-shaped slashes!

Three! Four! Seven!

The overwhelming slashes crashed down upon the Gale Demon Leopard!

However, this nearly 40,000-year-old ferocious beast has an overwhelming advantage in speed.

With a swift movement, it weaved through the gaps in the slashes at an unbelievable angle, only suffering a minor scratch!

Immediately afterwards, a sweeping kick landed hard on Lin Ye's side waist!

"hiss!"

Lin Ye grunted and flew sideways, rolling twice on the ground before regaining his footing.

A trickle of blood seeped from the corner of his mouth.

Watching this scene from the shadows, Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan narrowed his phoenix eyes slightly.

This Gale Leopard's cultivation level is indeed troublesome for Lin Ye at his current level.

If Lin Ye can't handle it...

His fingers twitched slightly, ready to strike at any moment.

A moment later, Lin Ye got up from the ground, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and his eyes became even colder.

"First Soul Skill, Thirteen Slashes of the Evil God!"

Another round of slashes was unleashed!

This time, he no longer pursued accuracy, but instead spread his slashes out in a fan shape to block the Gale Leopard's movement path!

At the same time, a black shadow silently swept past from the flank.

It was Zhu Zhuqing!

Although she was injured and had consumed most of her soul power, a month of training in the Death Canyon had sharpened her combat instincts to the bone.

She accurately captured the brief pause in the Gale Leopard's movements after it was forced to retreat by the slash!

"First Soul Skill, Netherworld Thrust!"

A black lightning bolt flashed across the sky!

puff!

The sharp claws tore a bloody gash in the hind leg of the Gale Leopard!

"roar!"

The Swift Leopard, in pain, suddenly turned around and pounced on Zhu Zhuqing.

"Big kitty, come back quickly!"

With a roar, Lin Ye unleashed the final three strikes of his Thirteen Slashes, which simultaneously struck the Gale Leopard's side, forcing it to deviate from its course!

Zhu Zhuqing took the opportunity to create distance and retreat to a safe position.

The two of them moved in opposite directions, one attacking and the other harassing.

The two worked together seamlessly, managing to drag a 40,000-year-old ferocious beast into a protracted battle!

However, Lin Ye's brows furrowed deeper and deeper.

He could feel his soul power rapidly draining away under the continuous consumption of the Dark Demon God Transformation.

The Dark Demon God Transformation only lasts for ten minutes, and this beast is too fast; normal attacks simply cannot deal any effective damage.

We must finish this quickly!

Lin Ye took a deep breath, a resolute glint in his eyes.

it's time.

"Big cat, step back and create some distance!"

Upon hearing the code, Zhu Zhuqing immediately understood and retreated rapidly to the side.

Lin Ye stomped his feet on the ground, his figure retreating rapidly, and at the same time, his fourth spirit ring suddenly lit up with a dazzling black light!

"Fourth Soul Skill..."

"Dark Demon Prison Array!"

Rumble—!

The entire canyon trembled violently at that moment!

Centered on Lin Ye, a huge blackish-purple vortex with a diameter of thirty meters appeared out of thin air, churning with evil energy and raging with lightning!

The Gale Leopard was right within the vortex's coverage area!

Its body suddenly sank, and its speed decreased sharply!

Gravity suppression slows down soul power by 30%!

This ferocious beast, which reigns supreme in speed, had its most prized advantage forcibly stripped away by 30% at this moment!

"roar--!"

The Gale Leopard roared in alarm and anger, struggling frantically to break free from the vortex.

But it was too late.

Above the vortex, an extremely dense mass of dark purple evil energy was rapidly condensing.

Amidst flashes of lightning, a colossal phantom of a dark demonic tiger suddenly materialized!
