A Mere Soul Sage, Why Seek Your Own Destruction?

"Brother, Qiu'er wants this!" Wang Qiu'er's voice rang out, pointing to the large skewers of roasted meat on the charcoal stove.

Seeing this, Lu Yuan couldn't help but frown and said softly, "Qiu'er, you just had lunch."

"But Qiu'er wants to eat it, brother, let's just buy two skewers, okay?" Wang Qiu'er pulled Lu Yuan's hand, shaking it while blinking her big eyes, her little face scrunched up, looking pitiful.

"Okay, buy it if you want to eat it!" With Wang Qiu'er's pitiful approach, Lu Yuan was no match for her. As a doting brother, Lu Yuan had absolutely no resistance to his cute little sister Wang Qiu'er's coquettishness.

He immediately took out his money and bought a large bunch.

"Yay, I knew my brother was the best!" Wang Qiu'er took the roasted meat, holding a skewer in one small hand, eating as she walked, not caring about her image at all.

So what everyone saw was a beautiful blonde girl, as pretty as a fairy, skipping along while munching on a piece of grilled meat, while behind her, a handsome young man, equally dashing, held a large handful of grilled meat, Sisi smile on his handsome face.

Wang Qiu'er was young and energetic, with a strong sense of curiosity. She wanted to try everything fun and delicious. After half a day, Lu Yuan was exhausted.

He felt that he wouldn't be this tired even if he were in a fight.

Looking at the setting sun, Lu Yuan stopped Wang Qiu'er, who still wanted to go on a shopping spree.

"Qiu'er, it's getting late, we should go back now. We can buy it next time we come out," Lu Yuan said softly.

"Alright then!" Hearing Lu Yuan's words and glancing at the sky, Wang Qiu'er nodded obediently. Although she liked to play, she was still very sensible.

"Qiu'er is such a good girl!" Lu Yuan said with a slight smile, rubbing Wang Qiu'er's head.

"Let's go then, Qiu'er." Holding Wang Qiu'er's hand, Lu Yuan said with a smile.

"Okay!" Wang Qiu'er nodded, letting Lu Yuan pull her towards the Dragon King Hall.

The sun had already set, and its afterglow painted the sky a fiery red.

On the main road outside the Heaven Dou Imperial City, Lu Yuan and Wang Qiu'er walked quietly.

There wasn't a soul in sight on the main road. Although it was still bright outside, the wind carrying a faint chill made one feel distinctly uncomfortable.

"Brother, something seems wrong." Wang Qiu'er suddenly grabbed Lu Yuan's hand, her pretty face showing a hint of seriousness.

"What, Xiao Qiu'er, you felt it too?" Hearing Wang Qiu'er's words, Lu Yuan's face showed no surprise, as if he had already noticed it.

"Yes, my innate senses tell me that danger is approaching. This feeling is so strong that it makes my heart race." Wang Qiu'er replied immediately upon hearing Lu Yuan's words.

"Qiu'er, don't be afraid. Your brother is here. He won't let you get hurt." Lu Yuan said softly, gently squeezing Wang Qiu'er's little hand.

Although Lu Yuan spoke softly, his words carried a strange power that made Wang Qiu'er unconsciously believe him.

"Come out, what are you hiding for?" Lu Yuan's Double Pupils flickered slightly, and his calm voice rang out.

"Hehe, as expected of the captain of the Heavenly Star Academy, your perception is indeed extraordinary, you were able to detect my presence. However, this does not change your fate of death."

As soon as Lu Yuan finished speaking, a slightly aged voice rang out, and a figure appeared not far in front of Lu Yuan. It was an old man dressed in silver-gray clothes.

"Shi Nian from the Canghui Academy?" Looking at the old man, Lu Yuan spoke calmly. Judging from his appearance, wasn't this Shi Nian from the Canghui Academy?

What, is this guy trying to kill me now?

A cold smile crept onto Lu Yuan's lips. This piece of trash who was killed by Tang San in the original story dares to come looking for trouble with him?

"Hehe, it seems you have a good memory. It is indeed me. I have been watching you for a long time. I have finally waited for the moment when you were alone. Your Heavenly Star Academy seriously injured our Canghui Academy team members, preventing them from playing. This caused our Canghui Academy to lose several matches and lose hope of advancing to the next round. Today, I can finally avenge this."

Shi Nian spoke calmly, but his tone carried an undisguised murderous intent.

"Heh, our Heavenly Star Academy Canghui Academy fair and square, without any trickery. Everything we did was within the bounds of the competition. You lost because you were not as skilled. We actually went easy on you. I didn't expect that you, the team leader, would have the nerve to bully the weak and come looking for trouble with us?"

As Lu Yuan spoke, he shook his head slightly, as if expressing his disdain for Shi Nian's behavior.

"Heh, bullying the weak? I've never cared about that. In this world, only the victor is king and the loser is villain. Since you've made our Canghui Academy hopeless in the qualifying rounds, then today I'll make you and this little girl beside you disappear completely, as a way of getting some interest back."

"And I won't let the rest of your team off the hook either. I'll make them all go down and join you."

Shi Nian said in a gloomy tone.

"Heh, you've got some nerve. You might not know my identity, but let's not dwell on that. Among the remaining people are the little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the granddaughter of Poison Douluo. You dare to kill people like that?"

Hearing Shi Nian's words, Lu Yuan smiled faintly and said.

"What wouldn't I dare to do? As long as I handle it cleanly, who would know it was me who killed you? For example, if I kill you and then destroy the evidence, would that so-called Dragon Emperor Douluo know that I killed you? Besides his impotent rage, what can he do to me?"

"Your biggest mistake was that you had a powerful protector like the Dragon Emperor Douluo, yet you didn't let him stay by your side. Otherwise, with him there, I really wouldn't have dared to make a move."

Shi Nian said calmly.

"Hehe, looking at your confident face, are you so sure you can kill me?" Lu Yuan asked with interest as he looked at Shi Nian.

"Of course, I am Soul Sage, while you are at most Soul Ancestor Master. Killing you is as easy as turning my hand." Although Shi Nian could not discern Lu Yuan's specific level, in his opinion, Lu Yuan was at most Soul Ancestor Master. With such strength, how could he possibly escape when he encountered a Soul Sage like Shi Nian?

"Sigh, there are always so many people in this world who are blindly confident and think they can do it, but in fact they really can't."

Shi Nian Lu Yuan gazed silently at Shi Lu Yuan ahead, his expression gradually turned cold. A sentence uttered from his mouth, his voice soft and distant.

"A mere Soul Sage with seven Soul Rings, why would you choose to bring about your own destruction?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lu Yuan's Double Pupils suddenly narrowed, a sharp light flashed, and a strong killing intent emanated from his body.
