Douluo: The Glory of the Peerless Angel
Chapter 209 The Battle of the Bride-Snatching, The End of the Sea God's Fate, and Your Lightnes
Everyone held their breath, staring intently at Ling Bai. The Sea God's Fate Tournament was an unprecedented six-nation competition, and they all wanted to know who Ling Bai would ultimately choose.
The elders of the Sea God Pavilion also wore expressions of anticipation, and Yan Shaozhe nodded repeatedly. There weren't many men in this world more scum than him, but Ling Bai was definitely one of them!
"Junior Brother Ling Bai, it's time," Zhang Lexuan said.
"OK."
Ling Bai responded, and six beautiful, watery eyes focused on him, filled with hope, longing, and tenderness. They held a tender heart, hoping to receive a response from the person they admired.
"I choose Ning Tian."
"boom--"
As the phoenix flames burst forth, Ma Xiaotao suddenly lost control of her emotions. She knew that she was Ling Bai's first woman, and even though Ling Bai and Ning Tian were childhood sweethearts, she still harbored a sliver of hope that Ling Bai would choose her.
Now that her fantasy had been shattered by reality, even though Ling Bai's voice was very soft, it felt deafening to her, like a slap in the face, and her ears were ringing.
"Xiao Tao, are you alright?"
Even though her own heart was also breaking and bitter tears were flowing out, Han Ruoruo was a few years older and was able to control her emotions and care for Ma Xiaotao.
"I'm fine; it was something I foresaw long ago."
Ma Xiaotao turned to the side, wiping away the uncontrollable tears from the corners of her eyes. She held her head high, her proud phoenix-like demeanor even showing an upward tilt when she wiped away tears.
Han Ruoruo sighed softly. No matter who she chose, it would hurt the other girls. She had just given Ling Bai a way out.
Choosing her was merely a stopgap measure. He had feelings for many people, but couldn't express them due to the Sea God's Fate. However, Ling Bai didn't seem to want to drag things out and preferred to act more decisively.
Dugu Lin still had a smile on her lips, playing with her emerald green nails. Ling Luochen's expression remained unchanged. The two of them knew perfectly well that Ling Bai would not choose them, so they didn't feel much sadness.
Wu Feng crossed her arms and surveyed the surroundings with an air of superiority. At this moment, she seemed to share Ning Tian's fate, supporting Ling Bai and Ning Tian with both hands and feet, and was willing to serve them from the bottom of her heart.
Ever since Ling Bai uttered her name, Ning Tian's clear, azure eyes, as blue as the ocean, had been fixed on Ling Bai's face, the deep affection surging within them almost drowning one.
Among thousands of students from both the inner and outer academies of Shrek Academy, in a situation that was almost common knowledge, he resolutely chose her. Ning Tian cherished this blatant favoritism as a treasure.
Zhang Lexuan felt sorry for Han Ruoruo, but could only dutifully preside over the proceedings: "Ling Bai chose Ning Tian, is anyone going to try and stop the bride?"
The boys in the inner courtyard had shifty eyes. In the past, Ling Bai had personally defeated each of them. Now, Ling Bai had become even stronger. Only someone who was tired of living would dare to steal a bride.
"I."
Ling Luochen kept his promise: "Senior Sister, I am a six-ring Soul Emperor, and my Martial Soul is completely countered by Ling Bai. Can I find some helpers?"
"According to the rules of the Sea God's Fate, the bride kidnapping must maintain a balance of power between the two sides." Zhang Lexuan nodded.
"Alright, Senior Han, Ma Xiaotao, and Dugu Lin, the three of you come with me."
Upon hearing this, the three women were stunned. Ma Xiaotao even forgot her sadness and stared blankly at them.
"With Ling Bai's talent, he's at least a Title Douluo in terms of combat strength," Ling Luochen said calmly. "You don't need to show him any mercy. Let's vent our frustrations in a fight!"
"That makes sense, let's fight!"
These words struck a chord with Ma Xiaotao, whose phoenix eyes once again shone brightly as she stared intently at Ling Bai, while the faint cry of a phoenix echoed over the Sea God Lake.
"Then come on over."
Dugu Lin tossed her short, emerald-green hair. She was the kind of person who thrived on chaos; only in chaos could she have the opportunity to fish in troubled waters.
"I will not participate. I wish you a long and happy marriage."
Han Ruoruo refused the marriage-snatching battle, floated up, and left the troublesome Sea God Lake.
"Damn it, he dared to hurt Sister Ruoruo's feelings! I'm going to steal him away from her!!!"
On the water lilies behind them, Wu Ming was so angry that she jumped up and down.
Chu Qingtian was startled and quickly tried to appease her: "Senior Wu, calm down! What kind of behavior is this?!"
"Ma Xiaotao, Ling Luochen, and Dugu Lin are challenging." Zhang Lexuan looked at Ling Bai: "Do you agree?"
"I agree."
Ling Bai spread his six angel wings and flew into the sky. He didn't want to rank the women around him, but he had to establish a red flag, otherwise, trouble would inevitably arise sooner or later.
Ning Tian, his childhood sweetheart; Ma Xiaotao, the first woman he was intimately connected with; and Han Ruoruo, his senior who was willing to accept others.
If you're having trouble making a decision in your emotions, then suppress your restless feelings with absolute clarity of reason.
Ma Xiaotao and Han Ruoruo had always known of Ning Tian's existence. Since they couldn't be his legitimate wife, they were more likely to accept that Ning Tian was the one.
Because Ling Bai's bond with the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School is too deep, including Jianmu Douluo, Ning Fengya, Ning Fengyu...
Most of the people who have cared for and loved him since childhood come from the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, making it difficult for him to choose other girls.
"In the bride-kicking segment, Ling Bai faces off against Ma Xiaotao, Ling Luochen, and Dugu Lin!"
Beibei announced loudly.
No one expected that after the successful unions of Lone Sail Flower Yao and Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong'er, the third match would turn into a dramatic "falling out" scenario, with the three beauties, unable to win the hearts of the other two, turning around and launching a fight to snatch the bride. This dramatic turn of events thrilled everyone watching.
As the initiator of the wedding snatching battle, Ling Luochen rushed out first. His toes touched the water's surface, and a thin piece of ice instantly appeared. Six spirit rings, yellow, purple, and black, rose up, and a cold aura spread in the direction of Ling Bai.
Ling Luochen's delicate features were cold. She had not truly fallen in love with Ling Bai, but the moment Ling Bai appeared, her heart began to pound uncontrollably. There was an aura within Ling Bai that kept calling to her, drawing her body and soul.
She would always remember that feeling, which came from Ling Bai's left hand, the one that had touched her when he absorbed the Ice Jade Scorpion Soul Bone in the previous competition.
Previously, Ling Bai summoned snowflakes to freeze the lake surface. The long-lost excitement made Ling Luochen involuntarily move closer. As long as she could touch that left hand, she would rather be beaten up.
A dazzling flash of fire streaked across the sky, and a golden-red fire phoenix soared in mid-air, its magnificent tail feathers and perfect physique displaying the majesty of the king of birds.
Yellow, purple, black, red!
The eight spirit rings shone brightly in the night sky, instantly becoming the focus of everyone's attention. Ma Xiaotao's aura suddenly soared, and flames shot into the sky!
Yan Shaozhe was very pleased with himself. He had gone to great lengths for Ma Xiaotao, his disciple who was personally taught by the Ultimate Flame.
A meeting of the Sea God Pavilion was held, and all the elders of the Sea God Pavilion approved the plan to fully cultivate Ma Xiaotao, including sharing the cultivation experience of the predecessors' ultimate fire and gathering the power of the Sea God Pavilion to hunt 100,000-year-old soul beasts in the Blazing Volcano.
Furthermore, Yan Shaozhe also supports Ma Xiaotao in the inheritance dispute between Huo Yuhao and Ma Xiaotao.
With his discerning eye, he understood that Huo Yuhao was already a potential successor to Shrek Academy, so giving him the position of Elder of the Sea God Pavilion would suffice, and handing him over to Ma Xiaotao would surely earn Ling Bai's favor in the future.
The Lord of the Sea God Pavilion!
Who could resist a lover of this caliber!
On the other side, Dugu Lin released the Azure Phosphorus Poison, a combination of five poisons. The six spirit rings—two yellow, two purple, and two black—exploded one after another, and the terrifying venom flowed into the Sea God Lake. Everyone who saw this frowned and retreated away with fear on their faces.
Dugu Lin is twenty-four years old this year. According to the prediction of the elders of the Jade Phosphorous Serpent, the venom will completely devour her when she is twenty-five.
Today, she is finding it increasingly difficult to control the poison within her body. In the inner courtyard, only three Soul Douluos—Zhang Lexuan, Ma Xiaotao, and Han Ruoruo—dare to exchange a few blows with her. Even Wu Ming, the active volcano of the inner courtyard, dares not challenge her to the Soul Arena.
Tormented by the deadly poison, her personality became increasingly twisted and bizarre. Coupled with her terrifying poison skills, the inner disciples avoided her like the plague at the mere mention of the name "Deadly Snake Woman."
Most of the inner court disciples had just hoped that Ling Bai would take this beautiful but venomous snake away and restore order to the inner court.
Above the sky, a golden light bloomed in Ling Bai's eyes. The holy light of the Angelic Domain radiated outwards from his body, like a dazzling golden sun, illuminating the space above the Sea God Lake as if it were daytime.
Ling Luochen's ice element was instantly erased by the angelic domain, and the holy light simultaneously purified the Azure Phosphorus Poison that Dugu Lin had unleashed. The scene before everyone's eyes suddenly transformed into a pure golden world, and the magnificent hymns of angels echoed in their ears!
"What a powerful angelic realm!"
On the ferry, an elderly man was so surprised that he stood up.
"This kid somehow managed to bring the fire and light attributes of the six-winged angel to their extremes."
Fire, ice, light, darkness, evil, poison... anything that touches upon them is an enemy.
Yan Shaozhe smiled bitterly, trying to soothe the sharp cry of the Bright Phoenix within his body.
Dugu Lin and Ling Luochen were suppressed to a terrible degree. Ma Xiaotao, at least, possessed the ultimate fire, and although its quality was slightly inferior, it didn't cause her to be instantly defeated like the other two. The eighth soul ring of 100,000 years shone brightly, and the fire phoenix charged forward towards the six-winged angel!
"Boom—"
Thunder roared as countless enormous lightning dragons traversed the dark sky, each strike accompanied by a deafening roar. The surrounding air seemed to be infected by the roars of the lightning dragons, becoming oppressive and heavy!
A Brilliant World!
The inner court disciples opened their mouths dryly, their eyes glazed over. This soul skill, which resembled a natural disaster, far exceeded their conventional understanding.
As the Radiant World descended, colossal lightning dragons, like divine punishment, shattered the extreme flames on the surface of the Fire Phoenix, transforming into a lightning prison that enveloped Ma Xiaotao, who was constantly spewing phoenix fire lines.
The angelic realm shrank into a dazzling sphere of light, obscuring the view of outsiders.
Ling Bai waved his hand to remove the lightning cage and wrapped his arms around Ma Xiaotao's supple waist from behind.
Ma Xiaotao's body stiffened instantly. After struggling twice to no avail, she gritted her teeth and said, "Didn't you choose Ning Tianyao? Why are you hugging me?"
"You are all my wings, the people who stand at the tip of my heart."
"What if I want to break up with you?"
Ling Bai feigned distress: "Then I'll have no choice but to take you back to the sect's secret chamber for some discipline."
"Pooh!"
Ma Xiaotao spat lightly, her pretty face flushing red instantly, and she couldn't help but recall the deep affection she had shared with Ling Bai during that time.
Whenever they were about to reach ecstasy, Ling Bai would always bend down and whisper suggestive words in her ear that would make her blush and her heart race, stimulating her to respond shamelessly. He even gave her specific details on how to train her.
After venting her anger and regaining her composure, Ma Xiaotao began to think about the future. She had a fiery temper but was devoted in love, and breaking up with him was impossible. She couldn't bear to part with Ling Bai, nor could she find another man who could overwhelm her both physically and spiritually.
Thinking about it carefully, Ling Bai was also in a situation where she had no choice. If she couldn't be the legal wife, Ning Tian was the only one she could accept.
"I don't care, figure out how to appease me yourself!"
Ma Xiaotao tossed her long, golden hair, accepting the situation with a forced smile, though she remained angry.
Okay, I promise I'll coax you back.
Ling Bai pinched the woman's snow-white chin, and Ma Xiaotao, despite her reluctance, turned around and asked for a kiss.
The so-called "coaxing" is nothing more than romantic flirting. If the occasion were not inappropriate, the two would have already met like dry wood meeting a raging fire, igniting a protracted battle.
The angelic domain was deactivated, revealing Ling Bai and Ma Xiaotao.
"I lost."
Ma Xiaotao left with a single sentence before flying away. Ling Bai easily defeated Ling Luochen and Dugu Lin, both minor Soul Emperors, ending the battle with a flick on the forehead each. Ling Luochen even insisted on using his left hand.
"Are there any classmates who tried to steal the bride?" Zhang Lexuan asked.
Everyone just chuckled and said, "What's the big deal?"
That was the most powerful innate soul skill of the 300,000-year-old Radiant Thunder Prison Dragon!
Water conducts electricity, and they were all afraid that Ling Bai's hand would slip and Hui Ting Can Shi would fall into the Sea God Lake, sending them to see their great-grandmother!
After a long silence, no one suggested a forced marriage. Zhang Lexuan smiled and announced, "May the wedding be a long and happy one. Wishing Ling Bai and Ning Tian a long and fulfilling life together!"
"Mei'er, you have experience, go and persuade Xiao Tao." On the ferry, Elder Xuan suddenly said to Cai Mei'er.
"Yes, Elder Xuan."
Cai Meier nodded subconsciously, but the more she thought about it, the more something seemed off. What did she mean by "I have experience"?
Is this old man subtly mocking me for being a mistress who took over his wife's position?
After the battle ended, the two arrived at the shore of Seagod Island. Ling Bai led Ning Tian on a stroll along the lakeside path, while Wu Feng followed on Ling Bai's other side. The Seagod's Fate Blind Date Event was still ongoing, but they paid no attention to it.
Arriving at the two women's cabin, Ning Tian coughed lightly: "Xiao Feng, I'm sorry to trouble you to stay in Shrek City for one night."
"Huh? Oh! Okay!"
Wu Feng's brain froze for two and a half seconds before he finally reacted, hurriedly running away, clenching his fist excitedly, wishing he could laugh out loud.
Monogamy, here I come!
Ling Bai and Ning Tian both knew what was going to happen soon, and they understood each other without saying a word.
Ning Tian went into the bathroom to take a shower. When she came out, she was a little shy. Her long platinum blonde hair fell to her waist, and a bath towel tightly wrapped around her graceful body, with the hem hanging down to the middle of her thighs, perfectly showing off her beautiful shoulders and legs.
Ling Bai sat on the edge of the bed, his gaze following Ning Tian. It was the first time Ning Tian had been looked at like this, and he paused nervously for a moment. He slowly moved his beautiful long legs, his crystal-clear jade feet stepping on slippers, and came to Ling Bai's side. He gently hugged his waist and leaned completely into his embrace.
"Brother Bai, I can't imagine what stupid things I would do if you had chosen someone else tonight. Thank you for choosing me."
The girl's body was exceptionally supple, and her clear, bright blue eyes reflected the entirety of her beloved.
Ling Bai knew he was guilty. After a moment of silence, he could only say, "I'm sorry, it's my fault for not being able to make you feel 100% love."
Upon hearing this, Ning Tian smiled with relief, as if a knot had been untied from his chest, and spoke very earnestly:
"Then I will love you a little more, to complete the love between us."
They drew closer and closer, becoming indistinguishable from one another.
Wu Feng returned unexpectedly, sneaking to the window to spy on the two of them sitting together sweetly. She bit her handkerchief, tears streaming down her face.
"Damn it, be gentle with Ning Tian..."
It will break my heart, sob sob sob!
