The dead birds were crowded together and turned into a piece of soul bone, which eventually came into Wang Rui's hands.
There is no such thing as past lives or present lives in Douluo Continent. These broken souls are not strong enough and will soon dissipate. There is no possibility of survival, just like dew in the sun, which will soon evaporate.
Only in the end, they were free and could finally rest in peace.
Time to go home.
Watching the cloud of light formed by the bird's soul flying towards the stars, Wang Rui closed his eyes and thanked Alex in his heart.
Outside the window, a sleek swallow was staring blankly in the direction of the stars.
"I'll go out for a walk." Wang Rui took a deep breath and said in a low voice.
After saying that, he stood up and left the room.
Huo Yuqing stood by the window and watched Wang Rui walk downstairs and shout something. A familiar-looking swift then flew onto his shoulder, revealing a thoughtful look.
……
"Come back to your senses, Xiaobai." Wang Rui called out lightly.
Bai Chenxiang, who was in a trance, turned around, flapped her wings, and landed on Wang Rui's shoulder.
"...They've gone home." After a long while, the swallow chirped softly.
Even though she had been a human in the past, she sometimes felt disgusted by humans' endless greed.
A lion and a bird walked along the path towards the Sea God Lake and passed Jiang Lan on the way.
"That direction... is it the freshman dormitory?" Wang Rui turned around and squinted his eyes to stare at the purple-haired girl's back. The girl walked straight into the freshman dormitory. "She and Wang Dong are a bit close..."
A mysterious character who is not in the original novel is so close to Wang Dong... Jiang Lan's fate is unclear, and I don't know if this is a good thing.
"Does the sect have any information about this Jiang Lan?" Wang Rui asked in a low voice.
"I was just about to report to you." Bai Chenxiang said, "Although, I am not willing to admit the incompetence of our intelligence department, but about this Jiang Lan... we currently only know that she is Yan Shaozhe's adopted daughter in name, but Yan Shaozhe seems to be very wary of her. She has a thunder-type martial spirit, suspected to be the ultimate thunder. The first time Jiang Lan appeared in everyone's sight was when she was brought out of the Sea God Island by Yan Shaozhe three years ago. In the past three years, she usually either attended classes, sat in her room in a daze, or went to the fighting spirit field to be a referee."
"Is that all?" Wang Rui asked in disbelief.
With the omnipresent small soul beasts gathering information, and the disciples of the Silver Moon Chamber of Commerce gathering intelligence, except for a few extremely special places, the Beast Sect's intelligence network covers almost the entire continent.
In this situation, it is really incredible that there is so little information about Jiang Lan.
"So, was there anything unusual in the period before Jiang Lan showed up?"
"The Sea God Pavilion seems to hold meetings frequently. Shrek Academy has purchased more thunder-attributed auxiliary materials from the Chamber of Commerce. I have also investigated the purchase list... In addition, a fourth-year civilian girl with thunder-attribute who was sure to enter the inner courtyard dropped out. She did not return to Shrek, and our people are still looking for her." Bai Chenxiang said, "I think this information is related to Jiang Lan... It is difficult to find out more. After all, it is too risky to go to the Sea God Island."
"I see." Wang Rui rubbed his forehead. He felt a headache for the first time in a long time. The Emperor Beast rarely felt that the situation was difficult. The mystery of Jiang Lan gave him a bad feeling. "You don't need to follow up on Jiang Lan's affairs. I will fight her sooner or later."
"Is there anything else?" Wang Rui asked.
"Yes." A sad sigh floated out of the sharp beak of the Spine-tailed Swift. "Mr. Bear is making trouble... The most talented cub among the cubs born to his favorite great-granddaughter is missing. He wants you to go back to Xingdou and find the cub for him."
Xiong Jun's original words were much more aggressive than this, and Bai Chenxiang had already been as tactful as possible.
Wang Rui: “…”
"Let him go." Wang Rui cursed angrily, "I told him to put the cub in the affiliated city of the Beast Sect, but he said at the time that he was not free in the city. The forest is so big, he doesn't think highly of his own cub, who has the time to find a little bear for him? Damn it, the King of Ten Thousand Monsters is at home, he is in charge of the surveillance of the entire forest, if he doesn't go to the King of Ten Thousand Monsters, come to me, I think he is just spoiled."
"The King of Ten Thousand Demons looked for him, but he said he couldn't find him... Hey, from what I see, Mr. Bear isn't very popular either—" She stopped short in the middle of her words.
The Spine-tailed Swift glanced at Wang Rui, who was frowning and staring towards the center of Poseidon Lake.
Originally, the outline of Poseidon Island could be vaguely seen in the center of the lake, but now an extremely thick white mist was rising on the surface of the lake.
A blood-red light spot was approaching the lake shore.
110. Chapter 108 Who asked you to play with fire in front of the ultimate fire?
110.
2023-10-14
"Tsk, I told you so." Wang Rui looked at the red shadow in the center of the lake that was rapidly approaching the shore. "What is coming will come sooner or later."
Because Jiang Nannan had already joined the Beast Sect, Xu Sanshi's second awakening changed its target and went very smoothly. He was officially promoted to the top water-attributed martial soul, the Black Tortoise Shield.
With the help of Xuanwu Black Water, Ma Xiaotao was not troubled by the evil fire for a long time, and she practiced without any restraint, always giving it her all. As a result, her cultivation had reached the terrifying 69th level, only one step away from Soul Saint.
In the original novel, she would have lost control three months ago and ran into Wang Dong and Huo Gua by the Sea God Lake. However, after a small change, this incident naturally did not happen.
However, just last week, Xu Sanshi suddenly asked for leave and went home. It was said that something big happened in his family.
Ma Xiaotao immediately suspended her cultivation, but it was no use. During this period of time, with Xu Sanshi around, she practiced too recklessly and had no control over her speed. After only persisting for a week, the Phoenix Evil Fire rebounded.
In fact, this is just a small threat from Xuanming Sect to Shrek Academy.
If they want to facilitate the marriage between Xu Sanshi and Ma Xiaotao, they must make Shrek Academy and Ma Xiaotao herself realize that if she wants to practice successfully, she cannot leave Xu Sanshi.
This also required Yan Shaozhe's tacit consent, otherwise it would have been difficult for Xu Sanshi to get leave.
Of course, with Ma Xiaotao's bold and straightforward character and her straightforward and stubborn mind, she could not think of these twists and turns.
As for Xu Sanshi... he was not good at these twists and turns, and was actually tricked back home by his family.
Now it seems that what is coming will eventually come. This is probably the inertia of fate, or the convergence of the world line. However, Wang Rui did not deliberately avoid this matter.
"Auspicious beast...should we hide for a while?" Bai Chenxiang nervously grabbed Wang Rui's shoulder. With her senses, she naturally knew who was running towards her.
From a selfish point of view, Bai Chenxiang doesn't want Ma Xiaotao to offend the auspicious beast.
He is just a Soul Emperor, so he definitely can't hurt Wang Rui, but...
After all, they are the descendants of Ma Hongjun.
"No, I've been waiting for her for a long time." Wang Rui's golden eyes were fixed on the red shadow running towards the shore. There was a rare look of determination in his eyes, just like looking at a prey.
He once sent someone to find Ma Xiaotao, trying to win her over.
Because Ma Xiaotao's ancestor is Ma Hongjun, she naturally gains the trust of Shrek Academy. If trained properly, she will be a perfect chess piece that can be used to influence Shrek.
However, the original novel did not describe much about Ma Xiaotao's past, and Wang Rui had almost no idea where to start. By the time his men found Ma Xiaotao, she had already become Yan Shaozhe's disciple, making it very difficult to pry her away.
“If it was another Soul Emperor who came, maybe I would pretend, but…” Wang Rui smiled strangely.
Ma Xiaotao has the fire attribute.
In the time it took them to say these few words, the slender blood-red figure had already approached the shore within a hundred meters.
The terrifying high temperature swept over, and the lake water boiled violently where the soles of Ma Xiaotao's shoes touched the water surface. Large flakes of high-temperature water mist rose up with a "hissing" sound, forming a large area of white fog that blocked the view.
The moment she realized she was out of control, she probably wanted to rush into the Sea God Lake to calm down, but she probably didn't expect that the entire lake of water couldn't put out the evil fire, but instead made her float all the way to the outer courtyard.
Controlled by the madness and destruction in her martial soul, Ma Xiaotao, who had lost her mind, noticed that there were living creatures on the lakeshore and immediately killed them with a clear purpose.
Large areas of grass and trees on the shore began to turn yellow and die, and under the terrifying high-temperature air, the surrounding scenery began to become distorted.
However, Wang Rui just stood there quietly, looking at her with a smile.
Ma Xiaotao's Phoenix Evil Fire was nothing but a drizzle compared to the flames of the Three-Eyed Golden Lion.
When the blood-red figure was about ten or twenty meters away from Wang Rui, her figure suddenly froze.
The dark red flames flowing around Ma Xiaotao also stopped at this moment. Then, the dark red flames as thick as blood "swooshed" back to Ma Xiaotao's body, as if they had never existed.
The next second, gorgeous red-gold flames burst out from her body.
The flame that originally belonged to her was stripped away and then attacked him.
"Ah——!!!!" Ma Xiaotao let out a shrill scream.
She had always been protected by the Phoenix Evil Fire, but this was the first time she felt the pain of being burned since her martial spirit awakened.
Bai Chenxiang moved her slender claws and helplessly grabbed Wang Rui's shoulders.
She wanted to beg for mercy, but ultimately she didn't say it, after all, Ma Xiaotao did offend the auspicious beast.
"Why are you so worried?" Wang Rui smiled understandingly, "She will be fine."
Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, the golden-red flames subsided, and even Ma Xiaotao, who was originally in a violent state, regained her composure.
Ma Xiaotao had obviously lost control of her body. Under the influence of inertia, she fell to the ground like a rolling gourd and rolled twice before stopping.
If she was awake at this time and could look inside herself, she would find that the Phoenix Evil Fire in her body, which had lost its suppression and turned dark red, had now completely returned to its original golden red color. It was even better than when Xu Sanshi helped her suppress it.
This is the absolute suppression of the ultimate fire on general fire attributes and the amplifying effect of the ultimate attribute conversion.
Just like in the original novel, Huo Gua once raised Ling Luochen's elemental ice to the extreme ice, Wang Rui, who had a higher level of control over fire, suppressed and took over the evil fire running rampant in Ma Xiaotao's body in an instant, and raised her fire attribute to the extreme level.
The negative factors of madness and despair originally contained in the flames were instantly burned out by the flames that had surged to their extreme levels, leaving only the pure and clean phoenix flames.
This is just a temporary solution, not a fundamental solution. If Ma Xiaotao's martial spirit problem is not solved, evil energy will continue to be produced in her body.
Wang Rui walked over to Ma Xiaotao and squatted down
This senior from the inner courtyard now looked extremely embarrassed. She was lying face down on the ground, and it was obvious that she had just fallen very hard. If she hadn't had the protection of a mask, her face would have been bruised.
Wang Rui turned her over, stretched out his little finger to hook open the mask on her face, revealing a sharp, beautiful and aggressive face.
"Tsk tsk, she looks nothing like her ancestors." Wang Rui sighed.
He knew what Ma Hongjun looked like.
Ma Xiaotao's current appearance has nothing to do with her ancestor ten thousand years ago. After all, the old Dai family in Xingluo has passed down such a clear physical feature as double pupils.
"How many generations have passed? The blood relationship is already minimal." Bai Chenxiang said with a smile.
"Yeah...but she's obviously not your offspring, right? Then why do you care about her so much?"
"..." Bai Chenxiang was silent for a while, "But she is the descendant of Fatty after all."
"Even if her ancestor was born to your lover and another woman?" Wang Ruiyi asked relentlessly.
"That was before Fatty met me. After he met me, he didn't do anything to let me down. But his brother..." At this point, Bai Chenxiang sneered, "And I always have to think of something. What's more, Fatty's life was not easy after his bloodline was found. The Bai family, Tang Sect and Shrek Academy are all vying for the ownership of his bloodline. After all, the Phoenix Martial Spirit is a powerful martial spirit that can be inherited. Now it seems that Shrek has won, right?"
Wang Rui was a little frightened by her smile, and couldn't help asking a question he had always been curious about: "Have you ever thought that if you really meet him, he no longer loves you...what should you do then?"
"My good auspicious animal, please don't ask me anymore." Swallow's eyes showed a look similar to a bitter smile, "I can't think about this now. If I think about it, I won't be able to stand it."
At this point, Bai Chenxiang hesitated for a moment and said, "Lucky beast... can you help the child?"
Wang Rui raised his eyebrows.
"Since my dear Secretary Bai has asked sincerely, I will mercifully agree to your request." He showed a very annoying smile on his face. "But before that, I need to do a small test to see what kind of character this child has, and then decide how much help I can give her. After all, if she is not a good child and I help her a lot, then won't we become enemies?"
