Douluo Continent: Martial Soul Saint Master, Twelve Talismans Chaotic the Continent

Chapter 90 The past is the past

……

Thanks to Dai Tianfeng's cooperation, Nan Feng was able to stop causing trouble in Xingluo City. With the help of the Spirit Hall, the Xingluo royal family quickly spread the word about the prince exchange program, emphasizing that it was the Spirit Hall's request, the Xingluo royal family's active cooperation, and the Spirit Hall's clear guarantee.

"My dear in-laws, do you think they can come back?"

At the gates of Xingluo City, Dai Tianfeng, along with a group of ministers, saw off Nan Feng, his own prince, and the prince's fiancées.

"It's hard to say," said the Duke of the Underworld.

"However, whether they return or not, it will be beneficial or harmless to Xingluo."

If Davis and his group were to encounter trouble in Spirit City, the reputation of the Spirit Hall would plummet, Nan Feng's previous image would be shattered rapidly, and the Spirit Hall would even be made the target of public criticism.

If Davis and the others return safely, not only will Xingluo suffer no loss, but they will also learn about the Spirit Hall's movements.

He didn't have high hopes for the other kids, but Davis had a lot of confidence in that one.

"You don't seem to care at all?" Dai Tianfeng said.

"That's your daughter."

"That is also His Majesty's son." Duke Youming's expression remained unchanged.

"And it's all for Xingluo."

Dai Tianfeng narrowed his eyes slightly, watching the departing convoy. "Yes, it's all for Xingluo..."

What exactly is this guy trying to do?

Is it really for the sake of peace?

"Interesting... very interesting!" Dai Tianfeng laughed loudly, then turned and led the group of court officials back into the city.

"Unfortunately, they are not from my Xingluo."

……

In the center of the massive convoy, a large carriage sponsored by the Xingluo royal family sat together, along with Dugu Bo, Dugu Yan, Nan Feng, and several other guests from Xingluo.

"Don't be nervous, everyone. Just think of it as a trip to Wuhun City," Nan Feng said.

"I wonder, what aspects of teaching is Elder Nanfeng referring to?" Davis remained relatively calm, even though he was the most furious one at the moment.

He finally managed to get rid of the second prince, and the position of crown prince was within his grasp.

After all, he was six years older than Dai Mubai. With such a large age gap, there was no way Dai Mubai could catch up.

In other words, even if he didn't take action to eliminate Dai Mubai beforehand, the position of Crown Prince was already in his grasp.

But now, he has to follow this mentally unstable Nan Feng to Wuhun City!

Is that godforsaken place something you can just go to anywhere?!

"I don't know," Nan Feng said.

"I haven't decided yet."

"..."

The air fell silent.

Not only was Davis speechless, but even Dugu Bo and his grandson were speechless.

You've made such a big fuss, dragged everyone into it, and now you're saying you don't know what to do?

What the hell could this mean?

Isn't it just about luring people to Wuhun City before making a move?!

If you're going to take action, you shouldn't be so obvious about it!

"Do you have any suggestions?" Nan Feng asked.

He hadn't really thought about this. After all, the main reason he made this commotion was to help Bibi Dong. Perhaps stimulated by the matter of the Acacia Heartbreak Red, she wasn't as resistant to Qian Renxue anymore. She said that since they didn't plan to start a war through the Heaven Dou Empire, there was no need to let Qian Renxue waste her time in Heaven Dou.

Qian Renxue would definitely not agree to let Xue Qinghe die suddenly. After all, she had worked so hard in that godforsaken place for so many years. It would be impossible for her to give up suddenly, given her personality.

So, the best way to preserve Xue Qinghe's identity without hindering Qian Renxue's cultivation is naturally to bring Qian Renxue to Wuhun City in a legitimate way.

In order to avoid arousing suspicion, he simply took the princes of Tiandou and Xingluo under his control.

If possible, he also wanted to see if these princes could understand him.

After all, top-down change is much easier than bottom-up revolution.

However, he didn't have high hopes.

"..."

Davis and the others remained silent. After Nan Feng said that he hadn't thought it through yet, they had already roughly guessed their fate.

Even Zhu Zhuqing, the youngest and only recently awakened her martial soul, was instructed by Duke Youming before setting off that they had a mission in Martial Soul City: to gather as much intelligence as possible about the Martial Soul Hall. Moreover, the probability of them getting into trouble on this trip to Martial Soul City was very high; in fact, it could be said that there was almost no chance of survival.

Saying they can return on their own in three months is just an excuse. By then, something will definitely happen in Wuhun City, and they won't be able to go back.

"It seems you guys are rather introverted," Nan Feng said.

"They don't really like to talk."

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

"Actually, I used to be an introverted person and also had social anxiety."

Dugu Yan looked strange; she really wanted to complain.

Are you introverted? Are you socially anxious?

How could you have the nerve to say something like that?

Nan Feng patted Dugu Yan's head, stopping her from giving him a disdainful look, "I already said it was in the past."

"The past is the past, the present is the present."

"Then how did you become like this?" Dugu Yan asked.

She always felt that Nan Feng's mind would occasionally lapse, or rather, he would intermittently go crazy. Most of the time he was still relatively normal, but when he went crazy, it was frightening.

This situation most likely indicates that the person has experienced some kind of intense trauma.

"Around that time, after we left the City of Slaughter," Nan Feng recalled.

Dugu Yan's eye twitched. "You really went to the City of Slaughter?"

"Didn't I tell you I practically grew up there?" Nan Feng said.

"I wasn't like this at first, but in that hellish place, the Killing City, I was subjected to too many, too frequent, and too intense shocks."

"You probably can't understand it, living in fear in a hellish place where you could be torn to pieces at any moment, even being robbed by a bunch of lunatics, and not even being able to commit suicide."

"I vaguely remember that in the first two years, I would break down several times almost every day, and then be pulled back by the shock of death. After about three years of this, I found myself inexplicably getting used to it."

"Moreover, I felt pretty normal when I was in Killing City, but after leaving Killing City, I was a little unaccustomed to the stimulation, so... in your eyes, I'm a bit crazy."

He felt that he might have developed a certain dependence on Bloody Mary's toxins, and in the Killing City, going crazy was a normal thing. He only had so little soul power at the beginning, and he couldn't keep the healing going all the time. He would only give himself a thorough treatment when he felt that his mind was about to lose control.

However, he didn't know what mental state he was in when he made the judgment that "treatment was necessary."

"How...how did you end up in that godforsaken place?" Dugu Yan asked in confusion.

Nan Feng shook his head. "I don't know. I was in there as soon as I opened my eyes."

"Moreover, I felt that apart from being quite nervous in the Killing City, I did not experience any mental instability. Of course, perhaps my mind was no longer able to make a correct subjective judgment about my situation."

"I must have had this problem for a long time, but I just didn't realize it."

The power of the Horse Charm is to expel the influence of external forces, but the change in his mind under the influence of Bloody Mary may not necessarily be due to external forces.

His change should be considered his own choice.
