Hearing Light Feather Douluo's words, Su Zui's face filled with longing.
A Super Douluo! That was something countless Soul Masters dreamed of day and night. On the Douluo Continent, even Titled Douluo were few and far between, while Super Douluo were rarer still, as scarce as phoenix feathers and qilin horns.
Yet for Su Zui, becoming a Super Douluo seemed to be only a matter of time.
But then Light Feather Douluo poured a bucket of cold water over him.
"However, your situation is rather unusual right now. At the Soul Elder realm, you absorbed two Ten Thousand Year Soul Rings beyond your level. That's unheard of across the entire Douluo Continent."
Light Feather Douluo's gaze grew serious. "Although that Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast's sacrificial power strengthened your body to a truly terrifying degree, you still need some awareness of danger in times of safety."
Su Zui asked tentatively, "Then what do you mean, Sister?"
Light Feather Douluo answered earnestly, "Once your Soul Power reaches level fifty, don't absorb a Soul Ring right away. Return to the Worship Hall and have the Great Enshrined give your physical condition a comprehensive assessment."
Su Zui agreed at once. "I was wondering what it was. No problem! Once my Soul Power Level breaks through to level fifty, I'll return to Spirit Hall on my own."
Light Feather Douluo nodded, then put away his makeup case and stretched.
"Mmm~ No time to lose. Let's hurry and set off. Once we get the Soul Ring, I can go back to Spirit Hall and rest. At my age, I still have to come out and work overtime!"
Su Zui grinned. "What do you mean? You'll be eighteen forever, Sister! There are hardly any beauties as lovely as a heavenly immortal like you on the whole Douluo Continent."
It had to be said, Su Zui was a master of flattery. A few words from him had Light Feather Douluo giggling.
Because of his Martial Soul, Light Feather Douluo's own time had been frozen, and he would never grow old.
But although others couldn't tell, Light Feather Douluo himself still cared somewhat about his age.
So Su Zui's flattering words were very pleasing to Light Feather Douluo.
As a Level 96 Peak Super Douluo, Light Feather Douluo already stood at the summit of the entire Douluo Continent and had heard countless words of flattery in his life.
But Light Feather Douluo simply liked listening to Su Zui.
His own Xiao Zui was not only handsome and talented, but also sweet-tongued. Who wouldn't like a cute little boy like that?
Light Feather Douluo rubbed Su Zui's head and smiled. "All right, you're such a sweet talker. I don't know how that little head of yours works, but you always know how to make your sister happy."
Then Light Feather Douluo changed the subject, sounding eager to give it a try. "Speaking of which, we haven't seen each other for half a month. I'm really curious about how strong you are now, Xiao Zui."
Looking at Light Feather Douluo's dangerous smile, Su Zui said with a perfectly serious face, "Sister, first of all, that's a dangerous idea. Second, I'm still a child. I can absolutely take the moral high ground and condemn you... Damn, you're serious!"
Su Zui watched in despair as Light Feather Douluo summoned his Martial Soul. The moment the Light Feather Divine Bow appeared, brilliant as ice crystals, even the surrounding air seemed to freeze.
"Little Su Zui, the hunting game begins now! You have three minutes to run."
Without the slightest hesitation, Su Zui threw open the window and jumped from the third floor.
Downstairs, the young lady at the front desk was just about to start work when she turned and saw Su Zui jump from the third floor.
For a moment, the young lady thought she ought to go back to sleep.
Seriously, what normal person had nothing better to do all day than jump out of buildings for fun?
But Su Zui had no time to pay her any mind. Without looking back, he called, "Miss, tell Deacon Sai'en to save me dinner tonight. I'm going to hunt Soul Beasts! Second Soul Skill, Instantaneous Divine Speed!"
As his voice fell, Su Zui activated his second Soul Skill. His thirty-twofold divine speed burst forth, and combined with his Nine Steps of the Wandering Dragon, it carried him several hundred meters away in mere seconds.
The young lady at the front desk was still standing there in a daze when she suddenly felt a gust of wind overhead.
She jerked her head up, only to see a breathtakingly beautiful figure fly out of the window and chase after Su Zui.
"I got up early in the morning and saw an immortal. I really might be too tired."
The young lady at the front desk strongly suspected she was hallucinating. She felt she ought to go back for another nap.
But she was a working stiff, after all, so she had better get to work.
Meanwhile, Su Zui's figure sped through the broad streets.
With the aid of the profound Nine Steps of the Wandering Dragon, Su Zui was already moving as fast as a high-speed train, yet he didn't collide with a single pedestrian.
The pedestrians around him only felt something whoosh past their ears. None of them knew that a person had just run past them.
But using thirty-twofold divine speed consumed far too much Soul Power for Su Zui as he was now.
Su Zui could only keep lowering his speed. Once he reached eightfold divine speed, his Soul Power consumption finally fell within a sustainable range.
At that speed, however, Light Feather Douluo soon caught up and appeared above Su Zui.
Seeing Light Feather Douluo so close, Su Zui immediately protested at the top of his lungs.
"Sister, you went back on your word! You clearly said you'd let me run for three minutes first. How have you already caught up?"
Light Feather Douluo answered casually.
"When did I say I'd wait three minutes before chasing you? I said I'd let you run for three minutes before I attacked."
Su Zui shouted, "Don't you really think you're going a little too far? Sister, you're a peak level ninety-six Super Douluo. Doesn't your conscience hurt, attacking a child?"
Seeing Light Feather Douluo prepare to nock an arrow and draw his bow, Su Zui immediately launched into talk-no-jutsu, hoping his heartfelt words would awaken Light Feather Douluo's conscience.
Light Feather Douluo didn't respond to Su Zui's words. Instead, she put on a bewildered expression and shouted down at him, "Xiao Zui, what did you say? The wind's too loud up here. I can't hear you!"
Su Zui was especially naive at that moment. I'm a flower of Spirit Hall. How could Sister lie to me? If I just shout a little louder, surely she'll hear me, right?
So Su Zui raised his voice and shouted again, "Sister, I said, you have to have a conscience! I'm still a child, and you, a Titled Douluo, are bullying a poor, lonely little kid like me. Is that right? Isn't this really going a bit too far?"
Light Feather Douluo looked at Su Zui with a smile, then spoke again. "Xiao Zui, what did you say? You said you wanted to properly test your strength, and you even asked me to do everything I could to please you?"
"Since you're so confident, I'll have to give you a proper whipping into shape!"
"First Soul Skill, Ice and Snow Drifting, Ice Seal Arrow!"
