Melee archer with maxed-out Douluo luck

Chapter 11 The tacit understanding between a pair of scoundrels, a conspiracy outside the palace.

Han Li was unaware of the farce that had occurred in Nottingham, but he was not in a very good state at the moment.

At first, when his teacher lifted him into the air, he was very excited; humans always yearn for the blue sky. Moreover, this was an experience he had never had before, after all, flying in the air without any tools. Even being carried was enough to amaze him, because it meant he could do it too someday.

The Light Feather Douluo thoughtfully used his soul power to form a protective shield, enveloping him and Xiu'er, allowing them to freely watch what was below without any hindrance.

But after a while, the experience wasn't as good. After the initial novelty wore off and he got tired of the scenery below, he started to get bored. The Light Feather Douluo, treating him like a child, didn't bother to ask for his opinion, at least not in terms of traveling.

He was eager to return and show off his newly accepted disciple, and his gains this time were substantial. He had already decided that once he returned to Martial Soul City and settled things with the young man, he would immediately go into seclusion. The opportunity to advance further was right before his eyes, making him somewhat impatient. If he hadn't just taken on a disciple, he would have loved to find a place right now to try and advance his cultivation.

Guangling was even faster than when he arrived. Aside from letting the two of them get off to eat and relieve themselves, he spent the rest of the time flying at full speed towards Wuhun City. As for the two's temporary discomfort, Guangling didn't think it was a big deal; they were just a little bored. The subsequent training would be even more tedious, and if they couldn't even adapt to this, what kind of Soul Masters were they?

So, in just over a day, Guangling brought the two back to Wuhun City and landed not far from the city gate.

Seeing that the two children were still somewhat listless, and considering that they had already arrived at Wuhun City, Guangling was no longer in a hurry. He took the initiative to use his soul power to circulate through them, temporarily eliminating their physical fatigue, and explained, "Unless a special event occurs, no one except law enforcement personnel is allowed to fly over Wuhun City."

With their physical fatigue relieved considerably, Han Li and Xiu'er looked at the magnificent city before them. The brief excitement overcame their mental exhaustion, and they perked up.

Han Li was alright; he had the knowledge from his previous life and had already prepared himself mentally, so he remained relatively calm.

Apart from the village, Xiu'er had spent the rest of her time living in Notting City. It was the first time she had seen such a huge city. Thinking that she would be living here from now on, she couldn't help but feel a little scared, but also full of longing for the future. Her eyes were bright and sparkling, but she still couldn't help but grab Han Li's arm.

Guangling Douluo smiled, took the two of them by the hand, and walked towards the city gate. Nothing dramatic happened, and the three of them calmly stepped into the city.

On the way to the Hall of Offerings, Guangling continuously introduced the basic situation of Martial Soul City to the two, dispelling their confusion. They only stopped when they arrived at a huge complex of buildings, and Guangling then introduced the Martial Soul Main Hall to them.

"From now on, you two will be under the jurisdiction of the Hall of Offerings. Just remember that."

After explaining some basic facts, Guangling didn't say anything else, but he did remind everyone that he hadn't mentioned anything about internal factions, as that wasn't something a child should worry about.

Han Li understood what he meant, but he had no intention of taking the initiative to get involved. He nodded in agreement.

Along the way, passing law enforcement officers kept saluting Guangling, while casting curious glances at the two people beside him, wondering about their identities.

Upon reaching the foot of the mountain, Guangling glanced at the two of them, then at the long staircase leading straight to the summit. After a moment's thought, she took their hands again, her soul power flashing beneath her feet. In just a dozen breaths, the three of them appeared at the summit.

Han Li opened his eyes and saw a huge square with a statue of an angel, over ten meters tall, holding a holy sword in the center. The radiant white light emanated from the statue, and together with the surrounding white marble and golden decorations, it gave people a sense of holiness, making them want to bow down and worship.

As soon as the three appeared, someone came forward to greet them and bowed to Guangling.

"I have seen the five offerings."

Guangling nodded in response, then patted Xiuer's head, who was still in shock, and said softly, "Xiuer, I'll take Xiaoli to meet the others. You go and rest at your lodgings for a while, okay?"

Xiuer glanced somewhat nervously at the young master's teacher, not daring to answer directly, and instead looked at Han Li.

Han Li took her hand and said with a smile, "Sister Xiu'er, then I'll leave my bed to you. You know my habits."

Xiuer nodded subconsciously. Her sense of security came from the young master. Hearing Han Li say this, she felt much more at ease.

"These are my disciple and his sister. Arrange a separate palace for them, right next to my residence."

Seeing that his apprentice had calmed the little girl down, Guangling gave instructions to the newcomer without any hesitation.

"Yes, sir."

The visitor was shocked to find that the person he was supposed to receive was of such high status. He put on a kind smile, afraid of frightening the timid-looking girl.

"Miss, please come with me."

Xiuer wanted to retort that she was merely the young master's maid, but then she remembered that it was Guangling Douluo who had spoken, and she lost interest. She glanced at Han Li again, then took a deep breath under his encouraging gaze, bowed to Guangling Douluo, and followed him toward the group of buildings on one side, glancing back at Han Li every now and then.

Only after the two figures disappeared from sight did Guangling look at his apprentice and stride towards the most conspicuous giant palace.

"I'll take you to meet the other elders so you can get acquainted. Remember to show respect to the senior elders. Also, be smart later. Your teacher is young and doesn't have many valuables. The ones you'll meet later are all your senior uncles and aunts. Even a little bit of what I have is enough for you."

Guang Ling was never an honest person to begin with, and now that it was just the two of them, master and disciple, there was no need for pretense. The personality he displayed was a perfect replica of Han Li.

Han Li nodded vigorously; he understood the importance of a greeting gift.

Then he looked at his teacher and said, "But teacher, I don't have any soul tools. I won't be able to get any good stuff later."

Guangling vigorously rubbed his head, saying irritably, "So you're already trying to use me, aren't you? What's the rush? I could give you anything, but I don't have any good ones. Remember, the Fourth Elder Lion Douluo, the one with the golden beard, easy to spot. He has a soul tool that can hold living things, I think it has a space of over a hundred cubic meters, but he doesn't really need it. Go in later and see how I perform, cooperate with me in a little act, and your storage soul tool will end up with him, understand?"

Han Li nodded with a kind expression, secretly admiring that the teacher truly lived up to his reputation.

When Guangling saw that he could easily accept his way of thinking, a smile spread across his face.

As they approached the palace, Guangling's smile vanished. She released Han Li, reverting to her usual aloof demeanor, a hint of displeasure on her face. Without waiting for her disciple, she strode quickly into the palace.

So this is already a performance?

Han Li blinked, then got into the zone, jogging after him with a serious expression.
