Douluo: The Glory of the Peerless Angel

Chapter 54 The Forest of Radiant Light, Peaceful Inn, A Long Time (Part 2)

"what!"

Zhang Wu's salted pork knuckle came without warning, but Miss Xu was no ordinary person either. Upon hearing She Chong's shout, she reacted quickly and used her soul power to shake Zhang Wu away. However, her body was also pushed crooked by the force. After a cry of surprise, she staggered and fell towards Ling Bai's position, about to knock over his fragile table and dinner.

In that critical moment, Ms. Xu felt a gentle yet strong hand pressed against her back, allowing her to maintain her balance and prevent her from falling.

"Thank you, young master."

Miss Xu steadied herself, turned around and gave Ling Bai an elegant and graceful courtly salute. She looked up to see the face of the person who had come to her rescue, but was surprised to find that he was a young man who looked to be about eighteen or nineteen years old and had an unusually charming appearance.

Ling Bai withdrew his hand and said with a faint smile, "It was nothing. May I ask if I may have the honor of knowing your name, Miss?"

He was somewhat curious whether Miss Xu was a member of the royal family of one of the three great empires of Douluo Continent, and whether she was from the Star Luo Empire.

"I……"

Miss Xu pursed her rosy lips, about to speak, when the guard She Chong rushed over, knelt on one knee, and apologized:

"Your Highness, it was my fault for failing to protect you properly. Were you injured?"

"I'm fine."

Miss Xu reached out to help She Chong up, her beautiful eyes sweeping coldly over Zhang Wu, who was still arrogant at the next table, and said coldly, "Uncle She, it's up to you."

"Your subordinate obeys!"

She Chong immediately stood up, his resolute face filled with boundless rage, wishing he could skin Zhang Wu alive!

"What, you're not convinced?"

Seeing She Chong's menacing approach, Zhang Wu crossed his arms without flinching. Relying on his Soul Master status and his group of cronies, he had committed countless acts of bullying men and women. Moreover, they were numerous and powerful, and even the city lord of that small town couldn't do anything to them. What could a mere She Chong do to them?

Most of the guests at the Peace Inn were Soul Masters. As the saying goes, those who dare not cause trouble are mediocre. When they saw the two about to clash, the people around them had no intention of mediating. Instead, they started to fan the flames, hoping they would fight until the world turned upside down. The innkeeper and waiter were used to this. If anything was broken, they would just ask these well-off Soul Masters for the money.

"Kid, you seem pretty arrogant."

She Chong tilted his neck from side to side and clenched his fist so hard that it made a crackling sound like firecrackers.

"I have the right to be arrogant!"

Zhang Wu chuckled, then his soul power surged, and a kitchen knife appeared in his hand, its blade gleaming coldly. Two soul rings, one white and one yellow, slowly rose from beneath his feet.

"A Grand Soul Master?"

She Chong froze for a second, then laughed angrily, "Fine, fine, you truly are the most courageous Great Soul Master I've ever seen! I'll even activate my Martial Soul and beat you up as a reward!"

[At this point, I hope readers will remember our domain name: 202ᴋᴋs.ᴄᴏᴍ]

Before Zhang Wu, who was holding a kitchen knife, could react, a dark shadow appeared in his field of vision. The next second, a fist the size of a vinegar jar hit his nose squarely. His whole body bent into a C-shape, spun two and a half times in the air, and fell backward unconscious. The blood flowing from his nose drew two beautiful arcs in the air.

"That's enough!"

How could the eldest sister sit idly by while her younger brother was beaten up? Luo Mei slammed her hand on the table and led her brothers to surround him. They exuded a terrifying aura of oppression, and white, yellow, and purple soul rings rose one after another.

Three Great Soul Masters, four Soul Venerables, and the only Soul Sect Master, Luo Mei—this lineup is undeniably powerful. At least in the past, it would have been enough to dominate the small inn!

"Wow, that's amazing!"

She Chong stomped on Zhang Wu's abdomen with his heel as if crushing trash, ignoring the blood gushing from the man's seven orifices, and said indifferently, "Eight fools, possessing only meager soul power, dared to bully His Highness? You're courting death!"

A magnificent aura suddenly erupted, and an invisible wave of energy exploded outwards. Soul Masters below the Soul Venerable level were directly shaken so badly that their legs went weak and they knelt on the ground, looking around in confusion as they searched for the source of the energy wave. In the end, they discovered that it was She Chong who released his Soul Ring!

Yellow! Yellow! Purple! Purple! Purple! Black! Black! Black!

Eight rings!

Contra!

Luo Mei and the others were stunned, their mouths agape. Who would have thought that Zhang Wu's flirting with a woman would lead to such bad luck, getting involved with the Soul Douluo!

The titled Douluo is rarely seen, and the Soul Douluo She Chong is already the strongest Soul Master they have ever seen in their lives!

"Come here, I'll take good care of you!"

She Chong's martial spirit is a ten-foot-long snake spear with a sharp, frost-like tip. At this moment, he strung the clothes of Luo Mei and the others around the back of their necks onto the snake spear like candied hawthorns, and then started a crazy baton-swinging mode!

"Smack! Boom! Ugh! Ah! Oh! Pfft! Dad! Mom!"

The wooden floor of the inn was smashed and cracked, and screams of agony echoed from one after another, making the soul masters in the shop's eyes twitch. They thought to themselves that it was fortunate they hadn't provoked She Chong, otherwise they would have been the ones with the hawthorns on that snake spear candied hawthorn.

"My lord! My lord! Our shop cannot withstand your guards smashing it up!"

The shopkeeper and waiter rushed out in a hurry. They were shrewd and knew that it would be useless to plead with She Chong, so they decisively went to Miss Xu to kowtow and play the victim.

"Don't worry, I'll compensate you tenfold!"

Miss Xu was not an unreasonable person. She handed the shopkeeper a bag of gold soul coins. The shopkeeper gently tossed the bag, his wrinkles beaming with delight. His old face blossomed into a radiant smile as he cupped his hands in greeting:

"Heh heh, I've long disliked these hooligans. You and the guard are truly acting on behalf of Heaven!"

She Chong unleashed a flurry of blows, and a blood-stained, gold-inlaid tooth, seemingly appearing out of nowhere, spun and flew to Ling Bai's feet. It wobbled a couple of times before coming to a stop. Ling Bai ground the tooth into powder and said:

"With such brave and valiant guards, Miss must be of noble birth. It was indeed presumptuous of me to ask for your name earlier. I hope you will not hold it against me."

Miss Xu's smile was impeccable as she softly said, "You flatter me, sir. My name is Xu Jiu'er. Thank you again for your help."

After a long time?

Ling Bai isn't stupid; this kind of childish trickery involving a fake name doesn't insult his intelligence.

The cunning frog keeps touching your belly, Princess Xu Jiujiu of the Star Luo Empire!

The strange and wondrous scenery of the Youyao Forest, where half is perpetual day and half is perpetual night, gave birth to a massive number of soul beasts with both light and dark attributes. Considering Xu Jiujiu's Soul King strength and Star Crown Martial Soul in the Soul Master Competition a year later, Ling Bai guessed that she and She Chong would probably enter the perpetual day area to hunt soul beasts in order to obtain the fifth soul ring for Star Crown.

After dealing with Luo Mei and the others, She Chong, covered in blood, walked up to Xu Jiujiu, glanced at Ling Bai, and said frankly, "The thugs have all been killed. Your Highness, please move to the room. I will bring you food later."

"it is good."

The first floor was smashed to pieces, so Xu Jiujiu naturally agreed.

After waiting for a long time, the figure disappeared from the second floor. She Chong stared at Ling Bai, and after a moment, tossed out a gold card worth 100,000 gold soul coins, saying:

"Thank you for your help, Your Highness. This is your reward, but I also have a piece of advice for you: never, ever try to use this opportunity to rise in status!"
