Douluo Continent: The Butterfly, Starting from the Authority of Death

Chapter 117 Ghost Nana

The golden patterns meandered and almost covered the entire room.

It was a circular alchemical array with a border.

Within the alchemical array, two objects that appeared to be armor floated.

A bluish-white halo flowed, the breath of life and the breath of death mingling harmoniously.

The other piece is entirely blackish-gray, with some tiger stripe carvings.

The armor was surrounded by black energy, which combined with pure white light, so that the dark attribute did not appear cold.

"凝"

Xia Die stood outside the circular formation and whispered.

Press your palm down toward the edge of the magic circle.

In an instant, the golden light of the magic array burst forth with seven colors.

After an unknown amount of time, the light faded away.

"call"

Xia Die took two steps back and leaned against the wall.

The purple and orange spirit rings that rose beneath his feet quickly faded away.

In the empty room, the golden magic circle had vanished without a trace.

"I have a basic understanding of the rules here."

"But—" Xia Die gently shook her head, "it's still quite difficult to make them compatible."

Two large walnut beads, crystal clear.

They lay quietly on the ground.

One of them contains an intermingling of life and death elements.

The other one is filled with pure, dark elements.

"Soul Armor—" Xia Die shook her head, "Never mind, let's just call it Battle Armor."

The soul tool in Xia Die's hand flickered, revealing two jade boxes.

Place the beads into the container and label them accordingly.

After the alchemy was completed, Xia Die canceled the soul-guiding barrier she had set up.

She casually pushed the door open.

"Um?"

Xia Die paused for a moment, "Nana, have you been here the whole time?"

She looked at the girl with dark red hair by the door.

"Master, I don't know when you finish work, so, so—" The girl's voice was somewhat timid.

"There's no need for that," Xia Die sighed. "Nana, you don't have to call me master."

"No, that won't do." Nana shook her head. "That's my special nickname."

Xia Die: "————"

No, what kind of XP is this?!

Your calling me that reminds me of the novels I wrote and examined spontaneously when I was in Onphalus.

Xia Die placed her hands on Nana's shoulders and looked intently into her eyes.

"Nana, I helped you back then because that's what I wanted to do."

"I invited you to join the Fire Chaser Pavilion because we have similar attributes, and I wanted to see similar martial souls."

"If you really want to help me, then work hard at your cultivation." Xia Die paused for a moment, "Level 51 at 15 years old is quite good."

With her hand on Nana's shoulder, Xia Die could sense the fluctuations in Nana's soul power.

"It's still best that the master taught us."

Xia Die shook her head: "Your achievement of becoming a Soul King is the result of your own hard work."

"Well, I guess I played a little role."

"I have always believed that opportunity favors the prepared mind."

"Just like I was back then—" Xia Die shook her head and didn't continue.

"Go find Old Wang, that reserve team. I remember asking her to reserve a spot for me."

"Thinking about it, it's time for me to start getting to know them better."

"it is good."

Nana didn't ask any more questions and quickly left after receiving the instructions.

"Sigh! It's been a year." Xia Die looked out the window.

Nana, also known as Ghost Nana in the original work, has a ghost-like spirit.

In the original novel, when Huo Yuhao came to Mingdu as an exchange student, a series of events related to the Holy Spirit Cult occurred.

Huo Yuhao saved the child and allowed the souls of the child's parents to be released and ascend to heaven.

Subsequently, Nana joined the Tang Clan.

Now that Huo Yuhao isn't here, I'll focus on what I'm doing in Mingdu.

I don't know how the other party found out.

On one occasion, when Xia Die and Wang Xian'er went to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, Ghost Nana knelt before them, saying she wanted to be their slave, hoping to free her from the Holy Spirit Cult and allow her parents' souls to return to heaven and earth.

Just then, Ye Guyi was also about to join the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy. After hearing about Nana's experience, her sense of justice immediately surged.

As a result, Ghost Nana has chosen a master!?

The way I address you has been corrected many times, but you just won't change it.

It makes me feel like some sadistic character from a manga who assigns tasks.

In the original story, he reached level 54 Soul King at the age of 17. Now, he has reached Soul King at the age of 15, which is about right.

Also, the banquet from a year ago has ended.

With a wave of his hand, the Sun and Moon Emperor decided to promote Wang Xian'er to Dean of the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, while Jing Hongchen would step down as Dean and become Vice Dean, but retain his position as Hall Master of Mingde Hall.

Jing Hongchen agreed.

However, Wang Xian'er ultimately declined the suggestion.

She chose to serve as the vice dean of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, a position she held until now, a year later.

After Wang Xian'er became the vice dean, Xia Die and Zhang Peng also founded the Zhu Huo Pavilion.

Xia Die shook her head, discarding the messy things.

"Let's go find Lord Zhang Peng first."

Xia Die followed her senses to find Zhang Peng's location, and soon after getting close, she heard Zhang Peng's voice.

Xia Die stood quietly by the door, waiting for Zhang Peng and his employees to finish their work discussion.

This is a woman with light purple hair.

She wasn't particularly beautiful, but she looked quite capable.

"Greetings, Pavilion Master."

The woman bowed slightly towards the distant butterfly.

"Your Majesty, thank you for your hard work."

"I have some things to discuss with Mr. Zhang Peng."

"Yes."

Bai Linglong nodded and quickly left.

After Bai Linglong left, Zhang Peng asked, "You've finished your seclusion?"

"Yes, I made some little things." Xia Die nodded.

She was currently stuck at level 49 and needed a spirit ring to advance, but she wasn't in a hurry.

As time went on, her understanding of the rules of Douluo Continent deepened.

Many moves that were previously unusable can now be used without being restricted to soul skills.

"Mr. Zhang Peng, can Bai Linglong be trusted?"

"No problem." Zhang Peng thought for a moment and replied, "Not everyone in the Holy Spirit Cult is an evil soul master. Bai Linglong's martial soul is the Dark Bell, which is dark in nature and mainly attacks the mental realm."

"They joined the Holy Spirit Cult because they were being hunted down, just like me."

Xia Die nodded and did not ask any further questions.

Zhu Huo Ge has only been established for a year, and in the end, it is just a makeshift operation.

Most of the people under his command were recruited by Zhang Peng, and some were brought by Ye Guyi from the Ordinary Alliance after she joined the Fire Chaser Pavilion.

Xia Die didn't know what Shangguan Wei'er was thinking, but it didn't matter to her.

Just treat it as a hobby.

Her main goal right now is to connect with the spirits of the other planes.

Currently, neither she nor Electrox has been able to contact the higher plane spirits.

After chatting with Zhang Peng for a while, Xia Die got down to business: "How is our current cash flow?"

"They can probably come up with about 200 million."

"This is still because the pills you and Ye Guyi refined are better than other pills in the Sun Moon Empire."

"Part of this comes from the sale of soul tools."

"That's enough." Xia Die nodded gently. "Have you taken care of things with the royal family and the Ordinary Alliance? After all, it's a cooperative relationship. You can't eat the meat and not let others drink the soup."

"Oh, this makes me laugh." Zhang Peng laughed. "More than half of our pills and soul tools are bought by major customers of Mingde Hall. I imagine Jing Hongchen bought quite a lot."

Upon hearing this, Xia Die's lips twitched.

The pills that he and Ye Guyi refined were mostly for improving one's foundation.

Let me put it this way!

Drug use is rampant in the Sun Moon Empire, and many elixirs can damage one's foundation. However, the elixirs that Xia Die refines using alchemy can improve this.

This is equivalent to you taking a different path in alchemy.

"Don't worry about them, the Crown Prince also has shares."

"Those families wouldn't dare to go too far."

The Emperor of the Sun and Moon has almost made it clear that he is paving the way for the Crown Prince. With the Crown Prince's affiliated businesses, who would dare to mess around?

"Never mind that for now."

Xia Die walked up to Zhang Peng and placed a jade box on the table.

"This is?"

Zhang Peng looked puzzled.

"Open it and take a look," Xia Die gestured.
