Douluo Phoenix

Ma Hongjun thought for a moment before speaking: "I know that with your personality, you will not show mercy to evil spirit masters. I'm afraid that neither I nor everyone in the Holy Spirit Cult will be able to escape death."

"But there are still many young people in the Holy Spirit Church. They are not necessarily all wrong. Many of them were kidnapped. I hope you will let them go. This is my last request."

Wang Xiaofei said calmly, "You've said so much, not because of your kindness, but probably for the sake of your descendants."

After speaking, Wang Xiaofei waved to one of the people in the main hall, and that person involuntarily came in front of Wang Xiaofei and Ma Hongjun, seemingly unable to resist.

Approaching Wang Xiaofei was a woman in red, the only one in the entire Poetry Holy Spirit Cult to wear red. The woman was tall and slender, her face veiled in red, though her features were obscured by her eyes and brows, revealing her undeniable beauty. Her blood-red eyes possessed a captivating allure, radiating a mesmerizing, soul-stirring gaze.

Wang Xiaofei couldn't help but take a few glances. It did look somewhat like the original story. Finally, he said, "This woman should be your descendant. Her martial soul is the Fire Phoenix. Moreover, there is a strange aura in her Fire Phoenix martial soul. It is somewhat like the Phoenix Evil Fire, but it also has a divine aura. It is probably your aura."

"It's clear that you value this descendant highly, and you even personally helped her deal with the evil fire. Otherwise, at this young girl's age, she shouldn't have reached this level of soul power. It's likely that you used divine power to help her grow."

The woman in red seemed to have a hint of arrogance and a hint of ferocity on her face. She spoke to Ma Hongjun, "Ancestor, who is this person? Why do they dare to be so presumptuous in my Holy Spirit Sect? Aren't they afraid of the wrath of my Holy Spirit Sect, and afraid of you?"

Ma Hongjun quickly spoke up: "Xiao Tao, shut up, don't be rude. This is Senior Wang Xiaofei, who is from the same generation as me and is also the first emperor of the Douluo Federation."

The woman in front of me is Ma Xiaotao, a descendant of Ma Hongjun and one of the characters in the original novel, Douluo Dalu II: The Peerless Tang Sect. However, it seems that, influenced by Ma Hongjun, she did not join Shrek Academy but instead became a saintess of the Holy Spirit Cult ahead of time.

Ma Xiaotao was shocked. Her ancestor was a god. She never imagined that there would be someone in the same era as her ancestor. How powerful could he be?

Wang Xiaofei ignored Ma Xiaotao and instead addressed the crowd below: "Are Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao among you? If so, come out and say something."

As everyone looked at each other in bewilderment, a man and a woman seemed to want to come out, but Wang Xiaofei casually waved his hand and said, "Forget it, you don't need to come out. You're just two level 99 Limit Douluos. No matter what your love story is or what your reasons are, joining the Holy Spirit Cult is wrong. I personally don't care about the reasons, but mistakes should always be punished."

Just then, a man stepped out. He was a very tall old man with neatly combed silver hair, a rosy face like a baby's, long eyebrows hanging down on both sides of his face, and his hands behind his back.

He could only bow to Wang Xiaofei and then say, "Senior, I am Long Xiaoyao. This gentleman beside me is Ye Xishui. He joined the Holy Spirit Cult out of necessity. I am willing to die to atone for his sins."

Wang Xiaofei simply said, "Sins can't be redeemed. If you make a mistake, you have to be punished. No matter who you are, everyone is equal in my eyes."

"Although you are exceptionally strong and have cultivated to the Limit Douluo level, which shows your outstanding talent, you still joined the Holy Spirit Cult. You must bear the consequences. Otherwise, if everyone joined the Holy Spirit Cult out of necessity, wouldn't everyone be innocent? What would be the point of the law then? What would be the point of me?"

Ma Hongjun, standing to the side, seemed to be getting anxious as well: "Wang Xiaofei, we've known each other for a while now, and I've told you everything you asked. Even if you want to kill me, I won't complain. But Xiao Tao is innocent. She only joined the Holy Spirit Cult because she's my descendant. She hasn't done anything evil. Can't you let her go? I promise you'll definitely reform and never have anything to do with the Holy Spirit Cult again."

Ma Xiaotao and the others were stunned. They never expected that the leader of the cult would say such things. It was beyond everyone's imagination.

Wang Xiaofei thought for a moment and continued, "What you said today was very good. I have indeed learned a lot and begun to understand many things. I can let Ma Xiaotao go this time, but I hope she won't make me regret it. As for the others, I'll give you five minutes to discuss your last words."

After saying that, Wang Xiaofei sat down alone, closed his eyes, and seemed no longer concerned about anything in the outside world.

Ma Hongjun quickly said to Ma Xiaotao, "Xiaotao, from today onwards you should live in anonymity and never come out again. The Holy Spirit Cult is an evil organization, and this place is not suitable for you."

Ma Xiaotao seemed somewhat anxious: "Ancestor, how could it have turned out like this?"

Ma Hongjun looked worried: "Leave now. Since Wang Xiaofei said he'd let you go, he won't stop you from leaving. I hope you'll be a good person and live a good life from now on. Find someone you love, find an ordinary person, get married and have children. Don't be like me, trapped by love all my life and lonely forever."

Ma Xiaotao seemed to want to say something more, but Ma Hongjun suddenly became fierce: "Hurry up and leave, or you'll miss your chance."

Hearing this, Ma Xiaotao had no choice but to leave quickly.

Meanwhile, Long Xiaoyao and Ye Xishui below seemed to be talking about something.

As for the others at the scene, although they also wanted to leave, they seemed to be under an invisible pressure that prevented them from moving an inch, let alone escaping.

Time flew by, and five minutes passed quickly. Everyone present looked at Wang Xiaofei with great seriousness, including Ma Hongjun, Long Xiaoyao, and Ye Xishui.

At this moment, Ma Hongjun spoke up: "Wang Xiaofei, I have always looked up to you and admired you very much. Your talent and hard work far surpass all of us of the same age, and even surpass Third Brother. Today, I would like to learn from you."

Wang Xiaofei nodded: "It's been ten thousand years since I've had a proper fight with anyone. I also want to test your strength as a level 100 True God. I hope you won't disappoint me."

As soon as he finished speaking, Ma Hongjun, Long Xiaoyao, and Ye Xishui's soul power flickered.

Ma Hongjun transformed into a fire phoenix a thousand meters long, seemingly surrounded by endless phoenix flames. Long Xiaoyao transformed into a dark holy dragon a hundred meters long, while Ye Xishui transformed into a giant blood soul demon puppet. Judging from the situation, all three of them were giving it their all, especially Ma Hongjun, who seemed to have begun to burn his divine soul.

Wang Xiaofei couldn't help but shake his head: "If this is all the strength you have, then it's really boring."
