Douluo Continent: A Sister Who Loves Me From the Start

Just then, a huge, black cauldron silently appeared on his head!

It's Xiao Xiao.

Why didn't Xiao Xiao make a move when fighting Tianmeng?

She herself was also helpless. She couldn't see the opponent's speed at all, and her Soul-Shocking Cauldron couldn't detect the opponent's figure at all, so how could she fight?

Originally, he planned to appear when the other party attacked Huo Yuhao in order to save him. However, in the blink of an eye, instead of the other party, he saw a figure flying backward. That person was Huo Yuhao.

At this moment, Xiao Xiao was also filled with guilt, feeling that she had been standing by and doing nothing...

Now that's great, we have a perfect opportunity to make a move.

At that very moment, Shen Yumo, who had been immersed in killing for many years, suddenly sensed a dangerous aura. Looking up, she saw that the black cauldron was about to press down on her head.

There was no time to think further; the first thing that came to mind was defense.

With a flick of his wrist, the Demon Blade Thousand Blades returned to his hand. There was no time to dodge, so he raised his hand to defend.

Boom!

A series of clanging sounds rang out, occasionally accompanied by sparks.

The Soul Master is indeed the Soul Master; not only is their Soul Power level high, but their consciousness, reaction speed, defense, and even mental strength have all improved significantly.

Shen Yumo not only had to endure the pressure from the collision between the enormous furnace and the Demon Blade Thousand Blades, but also the mental energy attached to the furnace! Her mind was buzzing, and her ears were ringing as if heavy machinery was cutting through objects!

The collision of her martial soul with the other caused Xiao Xiao's eyebrows to furrow. This feeling was too strenuous, and she understood that what followed was a battle of soul power.

The face beneath the black light of the cauldron was filled with madness, and the demonic blade in his hand kept pressing against the bottom of the black cauldron.

His face flushed red, but he couldn't let go yet. If he dodged, he would be easily hit by the Soul-Shocking Cauldron at this distance, which would lead to defeat in the battle.

Both sides expend so much soul power to resist the attack; when one side's soul power is exhausted, that side will be defeated.

Shen Yumo didn't believe it. She didn't believe that Xiao Xiao would be foolish enough to compete with a Soul Master in soul power. That was obviously not the right thing to do. Otherwise, Xiao Xiao's side would definitely lose if the battle dragged on.

Yes, Xiao Xiao was naturally not foolish enough to engage in a prolonged battle of soul power with her opponent, but she also knew that if she gave up this opportunity, it would be only a matter of time before she was defeated.

Xiao Xiao's forehead was already covered in light sweat, but she was still gritting her teeth and struggling to hold on. She knew that if she continued like this, she would definitely lose, but she was helpless.

"Hehe..." Shen Yumo, who was struggling with the opponent's cauldron, suddenly felt that the opponent's cauldron had loosened its grip.

It was obvious that the opponent could no longer withstand such a high-intensity battle that consumed so much of their soul power.

"Why? We've already tried so hard..." Xiao Xiao's eyes were covered with a layer of mist, and the soul power in her body kept flowing away. The black cauldron swayed for a moment, and the figure under the cauldron had already disappeared without a trace.

The sharp blades gleamed coldly in the sunlight, and countless fragments of the demonic blade completed the magnificent and extraordinary process of breaking and reforming in a matter of moments.

"Xiao Xiao, you've lost. You can't beat me in a battle of soul power. Give up."

"But...but I don't understand, we've tried so hard, so why...is this the result..."

The weakened Xiao Xiao collapsed to the ground, and at that moment, the gleaming demonic blade disappeared with a single wave of Shen Yumo's hand.

Why? Shen Yumo murmured to herself, "Why? I don't know why either. I only know that in this world, the strong are respected. Effort or anything else is futile in the face of true power!"

If hard work were effective, the world would already have countless more strong people, and no weak people at all...

The boy seemed to have thought of something. Looking at the dazed and weak Xiao Xiao, he said with pity, "Actually... sometimes... no matter how hard you try, it's all in vain."

After saying that, Shen Yumo suddenly felt a sense of shared sorrow.

……

The battle was over, and no one spoke. The last two sentences were thought-provoking.

The blue-haired boy's back suddenly became lonely and desolate, and nearly a thousand pairs of eyes silently watched him go.

Sometimes the world is just that cruel, especially in a world where individual strength is paramount, where the law of the jungle is on full display behind the scenes.

When all the hard work and sweat have been poured into something, only to find that it was all in vain, one feels a deep sadness and can't help but sigh, "Life is so tiring."

When a person lives to be a hundred years old and then departs, all that remains is a handful of yellow sand. No one remembers you, just like an ordinary grain of sand in the desert. The lucky ones can be swept away by the wind to various places, while the unlucky ones are buried underground, experiencing the changes of time and eras, quietly listening to the sound of the wind.

What people pursue is nothing more than that, and it remains the same in the end, just with a different packaging and a different word. But isn't the purpose of this life to experience the joys and sorrows?

Sometimes, don't be discouraged; live strong, and you will gain more.

A desolate feeling, like a fox mourning the rabbit's death, lingered over Shen Yumo like an inescapable haze. In that instant, she suddenly felt so tired.

"Yu Mo..."

At that moment, a soft call awakened Shen Yumo's sleeping soul.

Turning his head, he saw a stunningly beautiful young woman walking towards him, her face etched with a hint of sorrow that evoked pity.

"Nannan." Shen Yumo gave a stiff smile. She had forgotten that Jiang Nannan had greeted her before entering the venue and had come specifically to watch her elimination round.

But he completely forgot about this beautiful woman. After finishing the elimination rounds, he left on his own, not thinking of Jiang Nannan at all. Now he's in trouble. Maybe she thinks he did something wrong, or that he doesn't care about her at all.

……

Chapter 93 Tianmeng Appears?

But he completely forgot about this beautiful woman. After finishing the elimination rounds, he left on his own, not thinking of Jiang Nannan at all. Now he's in trouble. Maybe she thinks he did something wrong, or that he doesn't care about her at all.

"Hmph." Jiang Nannan snorted coldly, her cheeks bulging, but a hint of worry flashed in her eyes. Although she was circling around him, her attention was entirely on Shen Yumo.

The girl wore a neat purple dress, her graceful figure faintly visible beneath the slightly transparent hem. The well-fitting clothes accentuated her beautiful and slender figure.

Jiang Nannan circled around Shen Yumo, surprised, and asked, "What's wrong? You look so unhappy. Is there something you're hiding from me?"

"No." Faced with Nan Nan's understanding and considerate girlfriend, Shen Yumo couldn't feel the slightest bit of indifference, and her previous inexplicable unhappiness vanished at this moment.

He was immediately in a great mood. He didn't care about winning or losing, or whether he was first or second. It was all nonsense. He smiled and went up to take Jiang Nannan's hand. She was stunned and looked at Shen Yumo in confusion. Obviously, she did not believe Shen Yumo's words.

Shen Yumo looked into her pale golden eyes and said seriously, "What else could I possibly be hiding from you? It's just that I won the competition, but I'm not happy about it. I don't know why, maybe it's because I'm not interested in fame and fortune."

Looking into his earnest eyes and at his warm hand that was holding her tightly, Jiang Nannan felt a sense of security for no apparent reason.

However, she still had a temper, and snorted, "What's there to be unhappy about after winning the game? Are you a little heartbroken because you hit that girl too hard and scared her?"

Jiang Nannan pouted and said with dissatisfaction.

Shen Yumo was both amused and exasperated. What was this all about? How could it be as she said? But one thing was true: he did seem to have gone a bit too far, which was quite outrageous for this young girl.

But I didn't feel sorry for them! Giving your all to your opponent is showing them enough respect, how can that be related to feeling sorry for them? Sometimes women might suddenly become jealous... for no apparent reason...

However, Shen Yumo only felt that Nannan was somewhat cute.

He gently pinched her cheek and said affectionately, "How could I possibly feel sorry for her? I have a girlfriend, you know. I'll save all my heartache for you, you silly girl!"

Jiang Nannan rubbed her cheek, which the boy had just pinched, and a blush crept onto her face.

"You've saved all your heartache for me, you really know how to sweet-talk me." Thinking this, Jiang Nannan lowered her head, no longer showing any jealousy.

Even now, she still suspects that the girl named Xiao Xiao has a strong interest in Shen Yumo, but she has no evidence. She just feels that Xiao Xiao is coveting her boyfriend, which makes her very uneasy. Sooner or later, she will see Xiao Xiao for herself.

A barely perceptible hint of doubt flashed in Jiang Nannan's eyes, but she didn't tell Shen Yumo.

Don't underestimate a girl; she can be quite fierce in private. If you touch her things, she will protect them without hesitation.

Just then, as the two were tenderly embracing and reluctant to part, a figure appeared with slightly unsteady steps.

Huo Yuhao stared at the extraordinary blue-haired boy with a complicated expression.

According to Tianmeng, the other party is hiding a big secret and is not as simple as it seems on the surface.

Huo Yuhao was curious but didn't ask. He just listened as Tianmeng asked and confirmed some things with the other party, because Tianmeng had once again exhausted his own source power in the elimination rounds. It was likely that Tianmeng would not possess Huo Yuhao again for the next few years.

The sound of light footsteps reached Shen Yumo's ears.

"Who?" Shen Yumo's eyes turned cold as she suddenly looked in that direction. The person who came was actually Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao still had a bright smile on his face. It was already dishonorable to sneak around, and now that he had been discovered, the guilty Huo Yuhao could only awkwardly wave to the other party.

Jiang Nannan also noticed Huo Yuhao, glanced at Shen Yumo, whispered something in his ear, and then turned and left shyly.

Shen Yumo watched Jiang Nannan leave, wondering why she would take the initiative to find him in such a short time. It was strange.

Although I didn't know what the other person's purpose was, I still nodded politely.

"Brother Shen... Brother Shen, you're not frostbitten, are you..." Huo Yuhao scratched his head awkwardly. He knew Tianmeng's strength. Although her attacks weren't strong, she could easily take down a Soul Master or even a Soul Emperor. He was worried that Tianmeng might go too far and hurt her. Shen Yumo: Hurt me? What a joke. You'll have to wait a hundred years to hurt me.

"No, that frost only slowed me down, but I guess Zihao from our team got frozen, after all..." Shen Yumo stopped there, too embarrassed to say it. She hadn't saved her teammate, and it wasn't honorable to talk about it.

Hearing that the other party hadn't been hurt by Tianmeng, Huo Yuhao breathed a sigh of relief. Thank goodness… As for Zihao, he was naturally ignored. Zihao: Damn it, how could you treat me like this?

"Oh, it's good that you're not hurt." Huo Yuhao nodded.

Shen Yumo pursed her lips and asked, "You must have something else to do, right?"

"⊙?⊙! Uh..." Huo Yuhao's lips twitched. He felt he couldn't bring himself to ask. Tianmeng was just a troublemaker; how could he possibly ask her?

"Oh, Brother Shen, I do have something to ask, and I'm asking for someone else!"

"On behalf of someone else?... Then ask me..."

"Brother Shen, do you know Hyotei?"

"What?!" Shen Yumo, whose taboo was involved, burst out in surprise. Her icy aura instantly locked onto Huo Yuhao, and the killing intent in her eyes was undisguised.

"Hey! Brother Shen, don't get excited! I'm just asking for someone else!!" The tense and terrifying aura emanating from the other party almost made Huo Yuhao faint on the spot. He already didn't have much soul power left after the elimination rounds, and now he didn't have any soul power left to support him, so he quickly reminded him.

"Brother Shen, don't get agitated... I'm really asking for someone else." Huo Yuhao wanted to cry but dared not. He could only cautiously extend his palm and slowly back away. His eyes were filled with murderous intent, like a ferocious beast, as if he would tear you to pieces at any moment!

Shen Yumo, who was almost losing her mind, still caught the key words: "Asked on behalf of someone else?" Could it be that the boy from that day, Dream Boy, asked the question?

The boy's eyes slowly shifted from murderous intent to calmness, and the surrounding raging soul power quieted down.

He took a deep breath and slowly uttered two words: "Ask away."

Shen Yumo gets angry whenever the topic of the Ice and Snow Emperors is mentioned, perhaps due to her strong possessiveness.

Chapter 94 You're just a big bug!

Shen Yumo gets angry whenever the topic of the Ice and Snow Emperors is mentioned, perhaps due to her strong possessiveness.

Tianmeng thinks he's made something of himself just because he luckily became a million-year-old soul beast. Someone said something wrong: how can natural enemies become friends? Can an ingrained hostility be changed so easily?

They actually dared to dream of taking over Hyotei?

From an outsider's perspective, Tianmeng may not have done anything wrong, but from Shen Yumo's own perspective, it's not what others think. He has already regarded the Ice and Snow Emperors as forbidden from corruption. He is selfish and will not let Tianmeng and Huo Yuhao succeed...
