Douluo Continent: Lin Dong transmigrates into Huo Yuhao

Chapter 150 The Soul Master Legion Sets Off, White Tiger Duke's Mansion!

Star Luo Empire.

"Your Majesty, news has come from Shrek Academy that they have refused to participate in the operation and kindly reminded us that the plan may be exposed. Jing Hongchen has already led people to the Body Sect, and they suggested that we also cancel the operation."

Upon hearing the report, Xu Jiawei was so enraged that he sat bolt upright, slammed his hand on the dragon throne, and roared:

"Damn Shrek! They backed out at the last minute! Seriously, I already spoke with the clan elders, and now they've changed their minds. This puts me in a difficult position!"

The Prime Minister, standing to the side, forced himself to offer his advice:

"Your Majesty, please calm down. Shrek Academy's refusal is reasonable. We all know how protective Jing Hongchen is. If she is determined to protect him, our operation will not succeed unless we start a war. We can only find a more suitable opportunity."

Xu Jiawei nodded with a gloomy expression after hearing this. He knew that with the strength of the Star Luo Empire, how could it dare to go to war with the Sun Moon Empire without the support of Shrek Academy?

"Sigh, that's all we can do. Give the order to the elders of the clan not to go down the mountain; the operation is canceled."

"Yes."

Seeing the messenger leave, Xu Jiawei murmured absentmindedly:

"If Shrek Academy were an academy of my Star Luo Empire, why would we be so subservient and subject to others at every turn..."

The Prime Minister looked at him, whose face was full of worry, and said comfortingly:

"Your Majesty, please do not be anxious. The conflict between Lin Dong and Shrek Academy is irreconcilable. When the two sides fight, it will inevitably result in mutual destruction. At that time, it may be the opportunity for our Star Luo Empire to benefit from it."

"Well, that's the only way..."

White Tiger Duke's Mansion.

"Madam, a scout has reported that both the royal family and Shrek Academy have cancelled their operations because Jing Hongchen seems to be leading a large force towards the Body Sect."

Looking at Zhu Da kneeling on the ground, a venomous glint flashed in Zhu Ling's eyes, and she said in an icy tone:

"If this kid gets away this time, I'm afraid I won't have another chance to kill him. I can't do it in the Sun Moon Empire either. What am I supposed to do!"

Hearing the murderous intent in her words, Zhu Da could only lower his head in silence, avoiding provoking her.

Zhu Ling gripped the back of the chair tightly, looked at Zhu Da, and said in a deep voice:

"By the way, how is Hua Bin doing after he returned from the academy?"

Zhu Da, forcing himself to speak, replied with a grim expression:

"Sigh, how could the Second Young Master, who is such a proud person, tolerate such a thing? He hasn't eaten for three days in his room and keeps saying he wants to kill Lin Dong."

"Shut up! If outsiders find out about this, you should know the consequences. Since the operation is canceled, I'll go see Hua Bin. We can't let him be so depressed for the rest of his life."

"Yes, Madam, I will never divulge a single word of this matter!"

"Alright, you can go now."

Zhu Da's figure slowly disappeared into the darkness. Zhu Ling got up and walked towards a lavishly decorated room. She gently knocked on the door and said softly:

"Huabin, your mother has come to see you."

Hearing that there was no more movement inside, Zhu Ling anxiously opened the door with one hand. As soon as she entered the room, a pungent smell of blood wafted into her nostrils.

Seeing Dai Huabin lying in a pool of blood, Zhu Ling's expression changed drastically. She rushed forward, hugged Dai Huabin, and used her soul power to seal his bleeding wrist.

Looking at Dai Huabin, who was utterly dejected and deathly pale, Zhu Ling gritted her teeth and said with exasperation:

"It's just a temporary loss! Is it really worth making such a fuss? If that's all you've got, how will you ever get revenge on Lin Dong!"

Shrek Academy went to such great lengths to use the power of the Golden Tree to revive you. You finally had hope for revenge, and now you're just giving up like this? Are you still my son?!

Upon hearing Zhu Ling's words, a flash of hatred crossed Dai Huabin's eyes, and his tone was utterly dejected:

"Mother, what's the point of a man's life if he loses even this? Besides, he could easily defeat me more than two years ago. How can I catch up with him now? How can I take revenge?"

Seeing Dai Huabin becoming increasingly agitated as he spoke, Zhu Ling felt a pang of guilt and hugged him with tears in her eyes.

"Hua Bin, I'm sorry you had to go through this. Don't worry, your mother will definitely find a way to avenge you. As for your cultivation, I will have your father try to obtain all sorts of spiritual medicines to treat your aftereffects. As long as you're alive, there's always hope. Trust me, okay?"

Dai Huabin's lips were black, and he said weakly in a low voice:

"Mother, I know I'm a useless person now. My only purpose in living is to see you kill that little beast. Can you promise me that?"

"Okay! Mother promises you, I will definitely find a way to kill him, so that you can live a good life."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Ling became emotional, tears welling up in her eyes, and she nodded repeatedly in response to Dai Huabin.

Seeing that he agreed, a glimmer of light returned to Dai Huabin's dim eyes, but it quickly dimmed again. He forced himself to stand up from Zhu Ling's embrace.

"Mother, I want to be alone for a while. You can go out now. I promise you, I won't do anything rash until I see that guy die."

Zhu Ling's lips moved as if she wanted to say something more, but she was afraid of upsetting him, so she could only grit her teeth and nod silently, then quietly left the room.

Reluctantly glancing back, Zhu Ling's eyes, which had been brimming with tears, suddenly filled with a scarlet killing intent, and she growled venomously:

"You damned little beast! It was you! You're the one who ruined Hua Bin like this! If I'd known it would turn out this way, I shouldn't have let you and that bitch live!"

"Just you wait, I'll find a way to make sure you die a horrible death!"

Inside the main body sect's waiting room.

"Lin Dong, if nothing unexpected happens, Jing Hongchen and the others will be arriving soon. I won't keep you any longer. You've been at my Body Sect for quite some time now, and we have a lot of fate to share this place with. Today, I'll give you a farewell dinner in advance."

Seeing the wine offered by Du Bu Si, Lin Dong clasped his hands in a fist salute, picked up the wine on the table, drank it all in one gulp, and replied with a faint smile:

"Then thank you very much, Poison Sect Master. I am truly sorry for making such a mess of your great formation. If there is an opportunity in the future, Lin Dong will find a way to repay this favor."

Poison Undying nodded in satisfaction, then looked at him and laughed loudly:

"Haha, you little rascal, you're so sensible! Sigh, that old man Jing Hongchen is just too lucky!"

"Poison Undying, why are you secretly spouting these nonsense while I'm not around? Are you trying to poach my girlfriend again?"

A hearty laugh rang out, and Jing Hongchen, leading Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen, strode into the hall.

Seeing the three familiar faces, Lin Dong smiled faintly. Meng Hongchen quickly stepped forward and asked him:

"Why did it take you so long to finish your cultivation? It's been over eight months! Does awakening your true form's martial soul take that long? Are you deliberately hiding from us?"

Seeing the worry in the girl's eyes, Lin Dong touched his nose and replied:

"I have been cultivating all along. How could I possibly be intentionally hiding from you? You can ask the Poison Sect Master if you don't believe me."

The poison-free man, who had been unfairly blamed, paused for a moment, then laughed:

"Hehe, yes, this little guy's awakening is quite special. He did wake up just a few days ago and asked me to inform you. If I hadn't reminded him, he was planning to go back without informing you."

Looking at the strikingly beautiful young girl, Poison Undying couldn't help but sigh inwardly:

Our Body Sect is practically a Buddhist temple. Can I only regret that I didn't have a granddaughter?

Hearing Du Bu Si's explanation, Meng Hongchen said "Oh," and looked at Lin Dong with concern in her eyes, saying:

"Why are you planning to go alone again? What if those Shrek bastards give you trouble?"

Xiao Hongchen also clicked his tongue and muttered:

"That's right, Lin Dong. Didn't we say that even if Grandpa gave you that trump card, you don't need to worry about it affecting his cultivation? Isn't it good to just send a message like today?"

Feeling a little uneasy under the resentful gazes of the three, Lin Dong shrugged and said helplessly:

"Oh, I forgot. I was planning to use the simulated soul skill to go back directly, and there shouldn't be any surprises."

Jing Hongchen pointed at Lin Dong, shook his head, and said with a wry smile:

"Why do you insist on shouldering this burden alone? Although we Sun Moon Sect won't provoke Shrek Academy in the short term, we are definitely not afraid of those bastards."

Lin Dong didn't elaborate on this topic, but instead smiled and said:

"Didn't I already tell you? Since you're all here, let's go."

After saying that, he turned around, looked at Poison Immortal, and cupped his hands in a respectful gesture:

"Master Poison, thank you very much for this time. We'll meet again someday."

"Alright, until we meet again," Du Bu Si replied with a smile, and saw them off.

After they left, Poison Undying sighed with a touch of melancholy:

"Alas, such a monstrous little fellow has sided with the Sun Moon Empire. This is not good news for us."

However, I have done him a favor today, and perhaps in the future, my Body Sect will be able to avoid being destroyed…”

"Sect Master, the Sun Moon Empire's forces today are quite formidable!"

Hearing the gatekeeper's words, Poison Undying looked up in surprise:

"What's all this commotion? Didn't Jing Hongchen come alone?"

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

Upon hearing Poison Undying's question, the guard's disciple looked at him and replied in a deep voice:

"You don't know this, although Jing Hongchen brought those two young men and women to the reception room, there is an entire legion of Soul Masters outside our sect, as well as two Level 9 Soul Masters."

The most terrifying of them all was a man in black robes. I couldn't see his face clearly, but I vaguely sensed that his aura was even stronger than yours!

Upon hearing this, Du Busi froze for a moment, then whispered:

"No way, does Jing Hongchen really value Lin Dong that much? He even brought over the Soul Master Legion. It's like he's ready to start a war at the drop of a hat!"

"I did consider forcibly keeping Lin Dong, but judging from the little guy's appearance, he didn't seem like he would compromise easily. Fortunately, I didn't do it, otherwise, our Body Sect would probably have suffered heavy losses..."

"Yes, Sect Master, you didn't see it with your own eyes. Almost all of the Soul Master Legion members are Soul Saints, and we've never seen the Soul Guidance Devices they wear."

That force looked so formidable; even a Title Douluo might not be able to handle it.

Seeing his disciple's dumbfounded expression, Poison Immortal smiled and patted his head:

"Sigh, there's no use in saying all this. Just focus on your cultivation. The mysteries of your physical martial soul are no less than those of a soul tool. As long as you intensify your cultivation, you'll definitely be able to defeat any soul master of the same level."

"Yes, Sect Master! This disciple will certainly cultivate diligently and live up to your expectations!"

"Okay, go down."

After his disciple left, Poison Undying gazed into the distance and murmured softly:

"Jing Hongchen is making such a big fuss, is he going to Shrek Academy, or somewhere else...?"

Lin Dong and the others left the reception hall and arrived outside the Body Sect. Looking at the grand scene before them, Lin Dong couldn't help but click his tongue:

"Dean, I am truly flattered by this. With so many people here, anyone who didn't know better would think you were here to attack the Body Sect."

Sensing the teasing in his words, Jing Hongchen gave him a helpless glare.

"Who told you not to tell me? If I hadn't made adequate preparations, wouldn't you have been bullied by those Shrek bastards again?"

Lin Dong felt a warmth in his heart and chuckled softly, "There's no need to be so exaggerated. You even brought the royal Soul Master Legion."

Jing Hongchen smiled upon hearing this and explained:

"This isn't the Royal Soul Master Legion; this is yours, or more precisely, yours and theirs together."

Jing Hongchen watched with a smile, while Xiao Hongchen and the other person raised their chins:

"This is an extra reward for your championship in the last competition. The strength of this Soul Master Legion is estimated to be among the top three in the entire Sun Moon region. The three of you can mobilize this legion at will."

Lin Dong was taken aback at first, then looked at Xiao Hongchen and the other person who were smiling. At the same time, the two raised their hands and each threw a jade military token at him:

"Hey, you're a general now, with your own army. You won't take advantage of your army to bully the two of us, will you?"

Lin Dong's heart skipped a beat. He smiled, grabbed the jade talisman, and patted Xiao Hongchen on the shoulder:

"If they were to bully you, the military probably wouldn't need to get involved. As for Miss Meng, she shouldn't do anything to displease me."

Meng Hongchen rolled her eyes dramatically and whispered reproachfully:

"That's not necessarily true. Anyway, we've handed over our military command to you. Whether you bully us or not is entirely up to you."

Sensing the teasing tone in their voices, Lin Dongqian smiled and shook his head.

"When did you all learn to gang up on me and make fun of me?"

Then, wiping the smile from his face, he looked at the old man and solemnly cupped his hands in a respectful bow:

"Thank you very much. This army is indeed of great use to me. I will remember this kindness."

Xiao Hongchen waved his hand casually and patted him on the shoulder:

"Hey, hey, what are you doing? Aren't we that old? You're acting all mature for your age, doesn't it make us look like we're childish?"

Lin Dong seemed to realize what was happening, and with a smile, he put away the military token without saying anything more.

The Soul Master legion below suddenly bent over in mid-air, looking at Lin Dong and shouting in unison:

"Greetings, Commander! We will obey any orders you give, even at the cost of our lives!"

Hearing the powerful roar, Lin Dong smiled and whispered a few words in Jing Hongchen's ear.

A terrifying aura suddenly emanated from him, and he stared south, revealing his gleaming white teeth.

"It's time to go back..."
