Douluo V: Starting with daily check-ins, I'm trying to trick Xiao Wu into becoming my wife.

After packing their luggage, Ao Yin and Ning Rongrong said a brief goodbye to everyone and set off together for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

Having just left Shrek Academy, Ning Rongrong suddenly stopped. She took out a Cloud Piercing Arrow from her bosom and shot it into the sky.

This is a signal exclusive to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School; only Ning Rongrong has the right to use it throughout the entire school.

Bang bang bang!

Several colorful fireworks exploded in the sky.

Almost simultaneously, Ao Yin sensed more than a dozen powerful soul energies rapidly approaching from all directions. Moments later, ten white-robed guards emerged from the dense forest.

Nine Soul Emperors and one Soul Saint!

Ao Yin was secretly amazed; this was the foundation of the three upper sects.

As the daughter of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Ning Rongrong's return to the sect was accompanied by such a grand escort, which shows how much the sect values ​​this future successor.

But at that moment, Ao Yin felt a sudden chill.

In the shadows, another aura lurked, its strength far surpassing that of the ten guards before them.

It was cold and eerie, sending chills down your spine.

But he remained expressionless, and the other party did not show the slightest hostility.

This person is none other than Gu Rong, one of the two guardian deities of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, who was protecting Ning Rongrong from the shadows.

Bone Douluo's martial soul is unique, and among Title Douluos, it is known for its unpredictability, cunning, and difficulty in dealing with opponents.

Clearly, the guards were unaware of Bone Douluo's existence.

"We are under orders to escort Miss back to her clan!"

The ten guards bowed in unison.

Ning Rongrong was already used to this kind of scene, and she turned to look at Ao Yin.

"Brother Ao Yin, let's set off for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."

Ao Yin thought to himself, "This girl, is she afraid I'll run away halfway through?"

He raised the corners of his mouth slightly: "Then let's go. I hope the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School won't disappoint me."

And so, Ao Yin and Ning Rongrong continued their journey, escorted by ten white-robed guards.

……

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

The group walked to the middle section of the One Line Sky Canyon.

The only Soul Saint in the group, who was also the captain of the guard, suddenly stopped. He looked into the depths of the canyon, his tone solemn.

"Miss, something's off about this canyon. I'll go ahead and check the road conditions. You two rest here."

"You nine, you must protect the young lady well."

"yes!"

Ning Rongrong nodded in agreement. With nine Soul Emperors and one Soul Saint protecting her, she had never expected such an unexpected turn of events.

As soon as he finished speaking, the Soul Saint's figure flashed and disappeared into the depths of the canyon like a ghost.

The remaining nine Soul Emperors dispersed and stood guard beside the two, temporarily entering a state of rest.

Only Ao Yin remained completely focused, his entire body on high alert.

This place is completely unsuitable for rest. The cliffs on both sides of the canyon are steep and the passage is narrow, making it a dangerous area where spirit beasts congregate.

As the captain of the guards, that Soul Saint couldn't possibly be unaware of this. Yet, before leaving, he didn't even set up any means to ward off Soul Beasts.

This person has ulterior motives for throwing his young mistress into such a dangerous place!

"Brother Ao Yin, have some water."

"Um."

Ao Yin remained calm and accepted the water bag handed to him by Ning Rongrong.

Fortunately, Bone Douluo was lurking in the shadows. If this Soul Saint truly harbored treacherous intentions, the Title Douluo would have dealt with the traitor without Ao Yin even needing to intervene.

"Brother Ao Yin, why do you look so troubled?"

"It's nothing. It's just that it's my first time visiting a girl's house, so it's normal to be a little nervous."

Ning Rongrong chuckled after hearing this, and the little devil girl came up and simply reached out to take his arm.

"What's there to be nervous about? Are you afraid to stay in our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and become a live-in son-in-law?"

Ao Yin froze, thinking to himself: Is it too late to run away now?

Boom!

The earth shook violently, interrupting their conversation.

Tap tap tap tap—

The entire canyon floor trembled continuously.

"earthquake?"

The nine Soul Emperors' expressions changed drastically.

"What happened?!"

"Oh no, it's a beast tide!"

"Form a protective array immediately and protect the young lady!"

"yes!"

Even when faced with the beast tide, the nine Soul Emperors did not back down. Most of those at the forefront were thousand-year-old Soul Beasts, and judging by their sheer size, they still had room to hold off the attack.

Ning Rongrong knew the strength of the guards, so she didn't panic and pulled Ao Yin to her side.

"Brother Ao Yin, don't be afraid, we'll get out safely."

"Um."

Ao Yin responded calmly, his face showing no panic, but his eyes were fixed on the rear of the beast tide, constantly on guard against the high-level soul beasts lurking there.

Ning Rongrong looked up at his profile, her heart filled with mixed emotions. If she had met Ao Yin first, would the ending have been different?

Rumble!

The beast tide surged forward madly. The nine Soul Emperors activated their soul power together, erecting a massive protective barrier that shielded Ao Yin and Ning Rongrong within its circle. All the thousand-year-old soul beasts that charged forward were repelled by the barrier.

Just then, a piercing scream suddenly rang out.

"ah--!"

Blood splattered as a Soul Emperor's entire arm was torn to shreds by a Soul Beast.

"What's going on?!"

"There are ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts mixed in with the beast tide! I've been ambushed!"

"Miss! The captain's not here. We can't hold out much longer. We need to get out of Yixiantian quickly!"

"Retreat!"

Ning Rongrong immediately issued a retreat order. The beast tide, mixed with ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts, couldn't be held up for long by just nine Soul Emperors.

Ao Yin spoke in a deep voice: "There's no need to retreat; we can't retreat any further."

"Boy! Miss has already given the order. Who gave you permission to interrupt? You have no right to speak!"

The Soul Emperor's rebuke was abruptly cut off before he could finish.

A 50,000-year-old bull demon soul beast charged forward, its sharp horn piercing through his body and sending him flying, instantly extinguishing his life force.

Moo-!

The 50,000-year-old bull demon roared to the sky, killed one of the guards, turned around and charged towards the remaining guards, unleashing another savage charge.

The remaining guards dared not be negligent, and all of them activated their spirit rings, using all their spirit power to withstand the attack.

Deep within the canyon, an endless stream of soul beasts continued to surge in, increasing the pressure on everyone.

A resolute glint flashed in the vice-captain's eyes as he roared, "Boy! What are you waiting for! Quickly take the young lady and break through! We'll hold off the beast tide here!"

Ao Yin was slightly taken aback, a hint of surprise rising in his heart.

He truly hadn't expected the guards of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School to be so loyal.

Even when faced with life-or-death situations, these Soul Emperors remained steadfast in their posts, doing everything in their power to protect the sect's safety, their dedication undiminished.

Could they break out and escape? That's simply unrealistic.

The group was trapped in the middle of the narrow canyon, with all passages blocked.

The beast tide continues, and no one can escape unscathed.

But Ao Yin's momentary lapse in concentration took on a completely different meaning in the eyes of the vice-captain, Soul Emperor.

In his view, this was because he had never seen a bloody scene before and was terrified!

"A complete waste!"

He cursed inwardly, then immediately stopped paying attention to Ao Yin, fixing his gaze on Ning Rongrong, his tone urgent and firm.

"Miss! Ignore everyone else! Come with me! Brothers, hold this place to the death!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he reached out to take Ning Rongrong's hand and forcefully led her out of the encirclement.

No one expected that a fatal change would suddenly occur!

A cold glint suddenly appeared, and blood gushed forth!

A scarlet demonic blade cleaved through the air, precisely piercing the Soul Emperor's crown!

Blood streamed down his forehead, tearing his entire face.

The vice-captain's eyes bulged out, his pupils filled with utter astonishment and resentment, and his breath died instantly.

In his dying moments, he mustered his last strength to roar, "Captain...it was you! You traitor!"

The remaining Soul Emperors trembled violently and turned their heads in horror.

The Soul Saint Captain, who had just left under the pretext of scouting, has returned.

At this moment, however, he no longer possessed any loyalty or awe towards his guards; his eyes were filled with chilling killing intent.

He did not return to protect his master; he returned to slaughter his master!

Why...?

Ning Rongrong's delicate body trembled slightly as she stared incredulously at the captain who had once protected her.

Witnessing him brutally kill his fellow disciples filled me with intense fear and chilling dread.

Faced with Ning Rongrong's questioning, the Soul Saint remained silent.

At this moment, all the Soul Emperors are tightly bound by the beast tide and have no time to spare, making it the perfect opportunity for him to eliminate them completely!

His soul power surged in his palm, and the blood-red demonic blade martial soul fully bloomed, its chilling killing aura sweeping across the entire arena.

At the critical moment, Ao Yin stepped forward and steadily shielded Ning Rongrong behind him, his eyes extremely cold.

"I saw through your trick from the moment you left to investigate."

The Soul Saint scoffed, his face full of disdain: "So what if you see through me? You're just a greenhorn, get out of my way if you know what's good for you! I'll spare your corpse!"

Ao Yin raised his hand and gently pressed down on the trembling Ning Rongrong. He turned around, his eyes filled with indifference and contempt.

"You lowly traitor and scoundrel, how dare you be so arrogant? Today, you will be slain."

"You?"

The Soul Saint laughed mockingly, his tone extremely arrogant: "An unknown nobody dares to point fingers at me?"

"Don't say I didn't give you a chance. Even a veteran Soul Saint like Fudo Myoo has been defeated by me."

Ao Yin remained calm, his tone brimming with absolute, overwhelming confidence: "You, an unknown and despicable half-baked Soul Saint, are not worth mentioning."

"Insolence! Unbelievable!"

The Soul Saint was completely enraged and stopped talking nonsense, his soul power erupting suddenly.

"Fifth Soul Skill - Bloodthirsty Demon Blade!"

hum!

The crimson blade light tore through the air, carrying a terrifying aura, transforming into a deadly blood shadow that slashed straight at Ao Yin's face with extreme speed!

"Brother Ao Yin! Get out of the way!"

Ning Rongrong's pupils contracted sharply, and she cried out in heart-wrenching terror, her heart filled with panic.

On the steep cliffs of the canyon, the Bone Douluo Ancient Banyan Tree lay hidden in the shadows, silently observing the entire battle.

Upon seeing this, his narrow eyebrows twitched slightly, his heart filled with surprise.

"Strange. Rongrong has always been indifferent and has extremely high standards. She looks down on all the peerless geniuses of the top sects."

"Today, I've actually lost my composure like this over a... brat?"
