Douluo: The Glory of the Peerless Angel

Chapter 76 The Scumbag King of the Land, the Pink Queen's Wrath (4K)

"Soul Bone!"

Chu Qingtian, with her sharp eyes, immediately noticed the soul bone in Ling Bai's hand and jokingly leaned over, saying, "Brother Ling, let's share it half when we meet!"

"Don't worry, you'll all get your share!"

Ling Bai replied with a smile that the four of them had made an agreement before setting off to avoid disputes: whoever killed the soul beast would get the soul bone, and the owner of the soul bone would give the other three 50% of the market price as compensation for their hard work.

Although Ling Bai will not absorb this 70,000-year-old torso soul bone, several of his close friends possess fire attributes, and he will find a suitable opportunity to give them to them in the future.

After putting away the Burning Sun Fire Dragon Soul Bone, Ling Bai took out the Angelic Holy Sword and invited Chu Qingtian to share the spoils of war.

A folk saying in Douluo Continent: Dragon meat from heaven...

Dragon meat is also on the ground!

This Sun-Burning Fire Dragon has a cultivation level of 70,000 years and is a rare and highly nourishing ingredient. Its dragon teeth, scales, horns, blood, and other parts are also extremely valuable.

The two men happily dismembered the beast, and in no time, the soul beast was divided into four parts, one for each of them.

"You two are quite efficient."

Han Ruoruo slowly woke up at some point, her beautiful, dark eyes curving upwards, a hint of a smile flashing in them.

"Senior sister, have you cleared the internal heat? Shall I use my divine attribute to cleanse it for you again?" Ling Bai asked with concern.

"No need." Han Ruoruo gently shook her head. "I have already neutralized the blazing fire dragon's anger, but I have suffered internal injuries and need to rest. It's best not to fight for a while."

"I'm sorry, senior sister..."

Ling Bai felt somewhat apologetic that Han Ruoruo was injured while forcibly controlling the Burning Sun Fire Dragon. More importantly, Wu Ming was seriously injured by a sneak attack, and the strongest combatant, Han Ruoruo, also suffered internal injuries. This time, they might be forced to end their hunting trip prematurely.

"For Soul Masters, getting injured is a common occurrence."

Han Ruoruo waved her hand dismissively, then decided, "Once Ming'er returns, we'll leave the Star Dou Great Forest."

Her thoughts coincided with Ling Bai's; given everyone's current situation, staying in the Star Dou Great Forest was indeed too dangerous.

After a while, Wu Ming returned from the distant forest. After treating her wounds, she changed into a red outfit, looking dashing and capable, which made Chu Qingtian secretly admire her from time to time.

Wu Ming wholeheartedly agreed to Han Ruoruo's suggestion; she still had intelligence before the inner courtyard's active volcano erupted.

The four set off immediately. Ling Bai and Chu Qingtian, true to their nature, took turns scouting ahead and bringing up the rear, protecting the two women in the center without hesitation. Han Ruoruo and Wu Ming exchanged a quick glance, noticing the smile that flashed across each other's eyes.

Traveling through the night until dawn, the four of them stopped at a clear lake at the border of the core area and the mixed area of ​​the Starry Sky Forest. A layer of misty fog rippled on the lake surface, and the air was exceptionally fresh and pleasant.

"Let's rest for a while, make the most of our time to recover our soul power, and then eat something to replenish our strength."

Han Ruoruo reminded everyone that they must maintain 80% of their soul power at all times while traveling in the Star Dou Great Forest to avoid being suddenly attacked by soul beasts. Once they left the core area, with the combined strength of the four of them, there were almost no soul beasts in the mixed area that could threaten their lives.

Ling Bai took out a black steamed bun from his storage soul tool. It was a special food prepared by Shrek Academy, containing various medicines that promoted satiety and soul power recovery. Shrek disciples usually took it with them as their staple food when they went out.

As the group was finishing their meal, a rustling sound suddenly came from nearby, accompanied by faint murmurs. They immediately became alert, exchanged glances, and slowly approached the source of the sound.

Not far from the lake, large swathes of trees lay fallen to the ground, and the bushes seemed to have been deliberately cleared by some creature.

Four pairs of eyes peered through the gaps in the trees at the clearing. There, they saw two soul beasts tightly entwined, one above the other. The soul beast on top was a huge scorpion with a pale blue body. Its joints exuded a scorching aura, and its tail, formed from five coccyx vertebrae, was raised high.

"The King of the Earth for Fifty Thousand Years!"

Wu Ming's eyes lit up instantly. The Earth King was a powerful fire-attribute soul beast, and its age perfectly matched her requirements.

Upon seeing the soul beast beneath the Earth King, Chu Qingtian's expression suddenly became incredibly excited. It was a scorpion half the size of the Earth King, but its physique was far more beautiful. Its body, as if forged from a blue-purple gemstone, radiated light, and its long purple tail intertwined intimately with the Earth King's scorpion tail.

The Purple Lightning Scorpion, a ten-thousand-year-old creature, is associated with lightning and excels in speed.

I was thinking of leaving the Star Dou Great Forest, but then a new opportunity arose, and the Earth King and the Purple Lightning Scorpion delivered themselves to my doorstep!

Wu Ming stared intently at the two strangely positioned soul beasts, one above the other, and asked in confusion, "What are they doing?"

Han Ruoruo coughed lightly, looked up at the sky and pretended not to hear. Ling Bai looked at the ground, as if there was something interesting on the ground. By the time Chu Qingtian realized what was happening, it was too late. Wu Ming's fist, the size of a sandbag, was standing in front of him.

"Two soul beasts are..." Chu Qingtian was drenched in sweat, his brain frantically searching for words that would pass censorship to describe that action.

"Creating baby scorpions, striving for new life!"

Chu Qingtian thought he was a little genius, but Wu Ming was stunned for a second after hearing this, and then her fair face began to turn red visibly.

Ling Bai and Han Ruoruo were both amused and exasperated. "Big sister, why are you blushing when two scorpions are doing what they like?"

Wu Ming buried her flushed head in her arms and said in a low voice, "To commit such lewd acts in broad daylight, they really need to be taught a lesson!"

"They haven't spotted us; we can't miss this golden opportunity."

Han Ruoruo made a decisive decision. Although she and Wu Ming were injured, the two scorpions' soul power was not particularly high. Moreover, the enemy was in the open while she was in the dark, giving her a huge advantage. There was no reason not to fight for Wu Ming and Chu Qingtian's soul rings.

The temperature in the Star Dou Great Forest was low in the early morning. The air by the lake was moist, and the misty fog was cold and damp. The group concealed their auras and slowly approached the two soul beasts. When they were less than 500 meters away, Ling Bai raised his hand to stop them and whispered:

"A group of soul beasts is approaching this area, numbering in the thousands, and they seem to be heading towards those two guys."

After the battle between the Void Demon Leopard and the Thousand-Pound Ant King, everyone had absolute trust in Ling Bai. Han Ruoruo thought for a moment and then decided, "Let's maintain the status quo and wait and see."

As soon as he finished speaking, a strange wind blew from the side, and the previously fresh white morning mist turned pink. The eerie pink mist drifted out with a faint sweet scent, which inexplicably had a captivating quality.

"poisonous."

Ling Bai activated his Angelic Domain and said, "Everyone, stay within the domain and don't go out."

Everyone could clearly see that at this moment, there seemed to be a golden shield around their bodies. No matter how thick the pink mist was or how the wind blew through the forest, the pink mist could no longer penetrate the ten-meter radius around them.

Ling Bai recognized the source of the poisonous fog and said, "The Pink Lady's Excitement Poison, when released individually, is far from lethal. However, the Pink Lady is a gregarious soul beast, ranging from a few hundred to thousands or even tens of thousands of individuals. The combined effect of the Excitement Poison spewed by these Pink Ladies is enough to excite a Soul Emperor-level Soul Master to death."

"Not only that," Han Ruoruo added, "The Pink Ladies are just ordinary soul beasts with low combat power, but once their cultivation exceeds a thousand years, they will evolve into Pink Lady, and once they exceed ten thousand years, they will transform into the Pink Queen, the queen of the Pink Lady clan. Judging from the concentration of this poisonous fog, this group of Pink Ladies must be led by a ten-thousand-year-old Pink Queen!"

The Pink Ladies swarm quickly arrived at this spot. They were crystal-clear pink scorpions, about two feet long, swimming on the ground, with faint pink gas constantly gathering above their heads.

A sharp cry rang out from the depths of the poisonous fog, and a pinkish light and shadow swept in fiercely. It was a huge pink lady, not much smaller than the King of the Earth who had lived for fifty thousand years. Her body was a deep pink, covered with a layer of fine diamond-shaped scales, and six dark red eyes on her head gleamed with a cold, eerie light.

The Pink Queen, with 30,000 years of cultivation!

When the Pink Queen saw the Earth King and the Purple Lightning Scorpion mating in a pyramid-like formation, she opened her mouth and spewed a thick mist at the Purple Lightning Scorpion.

However, something happened that made the Pink Queen furious. When she saw it attacking the Purple Lightning Scorpion, the Earth King immediately rolled down and shot out a torrent of flames from its tail hook, burning away the poisonous mist completely.

"Squeak!"

The Pink Queen's six eyes revealed a human-like disbelief, with a hint of tears welling up, like a pitiful wife who had witnessed her husband's infidelity.

"squeak!"

The Earth King lowered his eyes, unwilling to look at the Pink Queen, while the Purple Lightning Scorpion wrapped his tail around the Earth King's tail, clearly telling the Pink Queen, "Yes, we've done everything, what can you do about it!"

"Good heavens, so it turns out that Purple Lightning Scorpion was the mistress, having an affair with the Earth King and getting caught red-handed by the original wife, Pink Queen!?" Ling Bai commented sharply.

Chu Qingtian's mouth dropped open: "Wow... even the world of soul beasts can be this melodramatic!"

Han Ruoruo shook her head helplessly. The world is going to the dogs, and people's hearts are no longer what they used to be!

Wu Ming reacted particularly strongly, growling, "You scumbag king of the earth, you deserve a terrible death!"

The Pink Queen, having grown to a level of 30,000 years and leading a race, was naturally not one to swallow her pride. She immediately ordered her more than a thousand Pink Ladies to besiege the two, determined to wash away the shame with blood!

Enveloped in lightning, the beautiful blue-purple body of the Purple Lightning Scorpion transformed into a phantom, unleashing countless dazzling bolts of lightning as it charged into the Pink Lady clan. Facing the Pink Ladies, who were mainly composed of century-old soul beasts, it began an indiscriminate and bloody massacre.

Ignoring everything else, the Pink Queen fixed her gaze on the figure who had been with her for millennia, and, fueled by boundless hatred transformed from endless love, rammed her head against the King of Earth.

However strong the Pink Queen was, she was no match for the top-tier fire-attribute soul beast, the Earth King. Intense flames erupted, and the air within a radius of tens of square meters distorted completely around its body. Its two front claws slammed into the ground, generating a powerful shockwave in the distorted air, forcibly controlling the Pink Queen. Then, the ground cracked, and a huge pillar of magma shot into the sky, engulfing the Pink Queen's body.

The Earth King's innate soul skill: Magma Earth-Splitting Strike!

Ling Bai had seen this soul skill before. Ma Xiaotao's fourth soul skill, Phoenix Roaring Strike, was a powerful follow-up burst skill that absorbed the Earth King's innate soul skill and made it her own.

"Bang—"

The Pink Queen crashed heavily to the ground, her once translucent body now a terrifying dark red, emanating a foul, burnt smell. She occasionally convulsed, and a deep, ten-thousand-year-old soul ring floated around her.

On the other side, the Purple Lightning Scorpion also dealt with the Pink Lady clan. Most of the Pink Ladies died, with only a few lucky ones managing to escape and survive. The forest was littered with corpses, the stench of blood was overwhelming, and yellow and purple soul rings were everywhere, making it look like a living hell.

Seeing this violent and bloody scene, the desire deep within the Earth King resurfaced, and he grabbed the Purple Lightning Scorpion and began to whisper sweet nothings in his ear.

King of the Earth: Darling, let's do it again!

Purple Lightning Scorpion: Ugh, you jerk!

The two soul beasts drew closer and closer, and finally began to make love in the pink lady's blood, oblivious to the world around them!

"A radiant glow!"

"The Ring of Control!"

"The Golden Crow's True Fire Ignites!"

Thunderstorm!

The two beasts were shocked, not expecting the sudden sneak attack. The Golden Rope Control Ring took the initiative to control the beasts, the Six-Winged Angel's Myriad Blades of Radiance dealt damage and reduced their health, and the Golden Crow and the Electric Leopard each finished off the remaining enemies. The combo was smooth and seamless. The two ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts did not put up any effective resistance at all, and the Earth King did not even have time to draw his weapon!

Two ten-thousand-year soul rings rose up simultaneously, spreading out rings of deep black light.

Earth King, Purple Lightning Scorpion, is defeated!

The two ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts proved one thing with their bloody lessons: whether human or soul beast, both are extremely vulnerable when overcome by lust!

"Do you know what the meaning behind the death of the King of the Earth is?" Wu Ming asked the two boys gently.

Ling Bai cupped his hands around his heart, looking compassionate, and said, "There's no good end for scumbags."

"Add one." Chu Qingtian nodded frantically.

"Wrong, being a scumbag will get you a gruesome death!"

After saying that, Wu Ming burned the Earth King with Golden Crow True Fire, sat cross-legged on the ground to absorb the soul ring, leaving Ling Bai and Chu Qingtian looking at each other in bewilderment.

It seems to be a hint to us.

Not sure, let's wait and see!

Wu Ming and Chu Qingtian absorbed the soul rings, while Ling Bai and Han Ruoruo protected them.

"Senior sister, we're only missing your soul ring." Ling Bai said regretfully, as the probability of encountering an 80,000-year-old soul beast after leaving the core area was almost zero.

"Haha, I'd rather not run into it this time."

Han Ruoruo remained calm. If the four of them were to actually encounter an 80,000-year-old soul beast with a powerful bloodline, they would definitely be at risk of being wiped out.

"...Senior sister, what if things don't go as planned?" Ling Bai's face suddenly twisted.

"You mean...it can't be that unlucky, can it?"

Han Ruoruo parted her red lips slightly and glanced at Wu Mingchu Qingtian, who was absorbing the soul ring. The two of them would need at least another hour, and the worst-case scenario had occurred.

"The newcomer's cultivation level surpasses that of the Burning Sun Fire Dragon!"

The two stood in front of Wu Ming and Chu Qingtian. A few seconds later, a blue figure floated over.

A majestic and powerful lion, over five meters tall at the shoulder, stands with its four paws on the air as if unaffected by gravity. Its pale blue mane is as clear and bright as lake water, reflecting countless hues in the sunlight. A blue tentacle grows from each of its shoulders, constantly waving in the wind.

Han Ruoruo gritted her teeth: "Born to control water, the Azure Lion and Azure Sky Beast, so the lake should be its territory. Now that its master has returned home..."

Ling Bai gritted his teeth: "Those two damned scorpions actually dared to have sex in someone else's territory!"
