Douluo Continent: The Legend of the Dragon King? No, the Legend of the Six Kings!

In the dead of night, Xu Jiawei was planning the Soul Master Competition in a month. He felt that with the item sealed by the Conferred God Platform, there would be no problem with the auction.

They even looked down on the Vanrui Chamber of Commerce, saying that the Star Luo Empire could still hold auctions after the Soul Master Competition without the cooperation of the Vanrui Chamber of Commerce!

Beneath the palace, the bandits of the Body Sect had already begun digging a tunnel. Their speed was astonishing; each digging motion was as fast as a blur. This was the advantage of the Body Martial Soul—it could handle any kind of physical labor with ease.

In Lin Nuo's previous life as a cowherd, it would have been considered a divine skill.

His flirting with Hyotei was just a minor incident.

The two stood together keeping watch for the Body Sect. They had originally wanted to help, but were refused by Poison Undying.

They said it would be faster to let them do the physical work, but they could only keep quiet about it.

Lin Fan stayed at the hotel, but in reality, he was using the threads of fate to monitor every move of the Star Luo Imperial Palace. He had almost mastered the art of manipulating the threads of fate.

"That familiar aura is getting closer and closer to me. I never expected that the Snow Empress would be captured by a human soul tool."

Standing beside Lin Nuo, Hyotei felt an even stronger connection to Xue Di's faint senses, and couldn't help but squeeze the boy's hand tightly, revealing her inner tension and unease.

Noticing the haughty Ice Empress's nervousness, Lin Nuo said, "If I can capture you, then the Snow Empress who is about to undergo tribulation is even more likely to be captured."

"Do you know how to comfort people, Arnold?"

"I am stating the facts. That level nine soul master took advantage of the moment when Xue Di transformed into human form to capture her. Xue Di was unable to resist in this situation."

"I see." Hyotei nodded, seemingly understanding, "Humans are truly despicable!"

"You are human now too," Lin Nuo reminded him.

That's true. After Ice Empress relinquished her spirit rings and original form, and was recreated by Lin Nuo, she was no longer a spirit beast, but a genuine human.

She was indirectly criticizing herself when she said those words.

Hyotei: "..."

She remained silent for a while, then added, "That level nine soul master is truly despicable."

"Heh~" Lin Nuo was amused by this guy's thought process. "As expected of you."

"But don't worry, with me here, she can only be ours."

"Mmm." Hyotei moved closer to Lin Nuo to ease his tension.

Inside the palace, Xu Jiawei's eyelids suddenly started twitching, clearly sensing that something bad was about to happen. He hurriedly summoned Cheng Gang, the Guardian Douluo: "Cheng Gang, how are the guards in the capital?"

"His Majesty remains unchanged and is as safe as ever."

"But I have a feeling that something bad is about to happen."

"Your Majesty, you've probably been too busy lately and are worrying unnecessarily."

Cheng Gang suggested, "Why doesn't Your Majesty go and rest?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Jiawei remained silent for a moment before finally making a decision: "Let Xu Jiujiu accompany me to the underground palace, patrol it once, and then rest."

He was still worried, so he decided to go to the underground chamber to check if the soul beast embryo was still there before he could rest.

The three of them headed to the underground chamber side by side. As for why he brought Cheng Gang along, it was naturally to give this Guardian Douluo a warning and prevent him from having any wicked thoughts.

The passage below the secret chamber has been dug to its exact location. Du Busi immediately took out the soul-searching device that Kong Deming had specially made for him. After checking that the data matched, he said, "Brothers, we've arrived. Get ready to dig upwards."

Just as Lao Jin was about to break the floor tiles above, Elder Da Tou hurriedly stopped him: "Wait, Lao Jin, and the Sect Master too."

"What's wrong, Big Head?" Poison Immortal asked in confusion, and the other elders also looked at this Big Head Elder.

Elder Big Head used his spiritual power to sense something and said, "Someone is approaching from above."

"Anyone there? How many?"

"Three."

Du Busi exchanged glances with the other elders, and the Golden-Bodied Douluo Jinpeng spoke first: "Boss, how about we wait for those three to leave before we make our move?"

"Get out of here! Why all the rules? Just rob us! We're bandits, what are we afraid of!"

"We'll hand the embryo over to Arno and let those people search the Body Sect. If they can't find it, we can turn the tables on them. We're not Shrek Academy."

After listening to their sect leader's words, everyone present looked at each other and nodded in agreement with the sect leader's proposal.

Without further hesitation, Jin Peng clenched his fist and gathered his strength. His powerful soul force enveloped his fist, and then he unleashed a punch. The floor tiles above him shattered, and countless cracks spread instantly.

Xu Jiawei and his two companions, who had rushed to the basement, opened the door to the secret room and saw the embryo on the Conferred God Platform in front of them. Just as they were about to breathe a sigh of relief...

Click!

The paving stones in front of them trembled slightly, and fine, spiderweb-like cracks spread out, with small pieces of stone falling down.

The next instant, the entire floor collapsed!

Cheng Gang immediately shielded Xu Jiawei and Xu Jiujiu behind him. He felt a chilling aura below, and not just one, but several.

"Your Majesty, Princess Jiujiu, we're in trouble."

"What?" Xu Jiawei saw Cheng Gang's grim expression and immediately realized that a tough battle was about to begin. He hurriedly told Xu Jiujiu to go find other titled retainers.

Without any hesitation, he turned and left to find the other offerings.

The Star Luo Emperor stared intently at the collapse: the original stone slab had collapsed downwards, scattering debris and revealing a bottomless black hole. He already guessed which force was responsible.

On the mainland, which family is the best at digging tunnels? Only the Body Sect and its bandits. How did they know that there was a soul beast embryo here?

Shouldn't all the forces on the mainland only find out at next month's auction?

Or……

Xu Jiawei's face grew increasingly grim as he thought about it. It was Lin Fan. His presence in the Star Luo Empire was probably not just for cooperation, but for investigation. That level nine soul master had betrayed the Sun Moon Empire and defected to their Star Luo royal family.

Although the Xu family ultimately discarded them after using them, it doesn't mean that the Sun and Moon Sect had no other means to find that level nine soul master.

An even more terrifying thought arose in his mind: the Body Sect might have already established connections with the Sun Moon Empire.

"Xu Jiawei! I didn't expect you to have something like this." Du Busi was the first to appear. He didn't even pretend. He activated his true martial soul, and the nine dazzling soul rings and level 99 aura scared Cheng Gang so much that he didn't dare to move.

Xu Jiawei was surprised to find that his intuition was right; it really was those damned bandits!

"Poison Undying, do you know what you're doing? Aren't you afraid of starting a war between Star Luo and Heavenly Soul?"

"Go away, why are there so many rules?" Poison Undying didn't care about the so-called Heavenly Soul Empire at all. "The Body Sect is the Body Sect, and the Heavenly Soul Empire is the Heavenly Soul Empire. If you have the guts, let Star Luo go to war with the Body Sect."

"Whatever the Body Sect sets its sights on belongs to the Body Sect, regardless of your opinions!"

Xu Jiawei: "..."

War? Does he dare? Right now, which power on the continent doesn't know that you can't poison a Douluo who's broken through to the limit?!

And this old guy became even more shameless after breaking through to the Limit Douluo level, he even started openly robbing people.

How are other factions supposed to compete with this?!
