You Hit One, We Hit One!

That frightened Chrysanthemum Douluo badly.

He had expected Demon Bear Douluo to follow him.

He had expected Demon Bear Douluo to try to take them away.

But he had never expected Demon Bear Douluo to actually want to kill him!

He was a Martial Soul Hall Elder!

Moreover, others had witnessed the battle between him and Demon Bear Douluo.

Yet Demon Bear Douluo had directly summoned Ghost Leopard Douluo and repeatedly tried to kill him.

For Ghost Leopard Douluo to have been called in so promptly, there could only be one explanation!

Demon Bear Douluo had only ever had one goal from the very beginning.

To kill him!

As for Lin Ning and Lin An, those two little ones were merely incidental!

Chrysanthemum Douluo was completely dumbfounded!

He had never expected to suddenly find himself facing a deadly crisis for no reason at all.

Demon Bear Douluo and Ghost Leopard Douluo did not deny it in the slightest.

Demon Bear Douluo even continued unleashing his martial soul, violently hammering the barrier Chrysanthemum Douluo had formed with his fourth soul ring.

Boom!

Boom!

Boom!

Each deafening impact shook the barrier before them.

The tremors even caused blood to seep from the corner of Chrysanthemum Douluo's mouth.

The barrier had been formed from Chrysanthemum Douluo's soul ring, so it was directly tied to both his martial soul and Soul Power.

Now, every time the barrier was shaken—

it also battered Chrysanthemum Douluo's martial soul itself and consumed an enormous amount of his Soul Power.

But!

Chrysanthemum Douluo had no way to deal with it!

In a one-on-one fight, Chrysanthemum Douluo, whose martial soul was an Immortal Herb, was confident he could pin Demon Bear Douluo down and mercilessly crush him.

But!

Once there were two of them—and they were partners, no less—

most importantly, these two Titled Douluo were nearly the same level as him.

This caused Chrysanthemum Douluo to lose every advantage and even fall directly into a disadvantageous position.

Unless Ghost Douluo appeared and the two of them joined forces, they could naturally defeat their opponents with ease.

However...

That was no longer possible.

Before leaving, he had never imagined this group would be so utterly deranged.

Nor had he expected protecting the Saintess to involve so much trouble, so he had not informed Ghost Douluo.

At that thought, desperate to win, Chrysanthemum Douluo furiously demanded, "Why?! How dare you?!"

Demon Bear Douluo gave a soft laugh, shaking his head indifferently, his gaze filled with resolve.

"Why wouldn't we dare? This concerns Lord Qian Daoliu's advancement!"

"This time, it isn't just the two of us. Pufferfish and Snake Lance have come as well, all to kill you!"

The moment those words were spoken, Chrysanthemum Douluo's heart sank halfway into an abyss.

Pufferfish, Snake Lance, Demon Bear, Ghost Leopard!

With four great Titled Douluo acting together, let alone himself—

they could even go and ambush monsters on the level of Sword Douluo Chen Xin and Clear Sky Douluo Tang Hao.

Most importantly!

Having heard Demon Bear Douluo's purpose, Chrysanthemum Douluo could not help but roar in fury.

"Are you insane?! Lord Qian Daoliu is the Angel Guardian—he can never become a god!!"

That was right!

Qian Daoliu truly was Martial Soul Hall's strongest soul master.

A terrifying existence known as invincible in the sky.

A Level 99 Limit Douluo.

But!

Qian Daoliu was also a pitiful man destined to never advance further.

As the guardian of the Angel Clan, as the guardian who was to watch over the Nine Trials of the Angel.

Qian Daoliu was destined to have no possibility of becoming a god!

Because his existence was meant to complete the final step for the god who completed the Nine Trials of the Angel.

Many Titled Douluo knew about this.

However...

Faced with Chrysanthemum Douluo's questioning, Demon Bear Douluo shook his head excitedly and said with considerable enthusiasm.

"We're not crazy. That person has four Black Soul Rings, which proves that the force behind her has broken through the existing theories of soul masters."

"Since that's the case, why can't we break the shackles that prevent the Angel Guardian from becoming a god?!"

Chrysanthemum Douluo's eyes widened as he shouted.

"You're crazy! You're all crazy! If you kill me, do you think you'll still live?!"

Chrysanthemum Douluo was numb with shock!

At this point, how could he not understand what had gone wrong?

Lin Ning's four Black Soul Rings had clearly been too stimulating.

Something capable of overturning most current soul master theories had allowed these fanatics to see a glimmer of hope.

Thus, they had resolutely decided to take Lin Ning away and buy themselves a little time.

But!

Taking someone away right in front of Chrysanthemum Douluo was basically impossible.

So Demon Bear Douluo and the others had made a direct decision.

The four of them would join forces and secretly kill Chrysanthemum Douluo.

That way, they could conceal Lin Ning's existence. Even if it was only temporary concealment, it would be enough.

Then Lord Qian Daoliu could take Lin Ning as his disciple and slowly begin to understand her.

Chrysanthemum Douluo could not help but threaten them.

He was an elder of Spirit Hall in charge of punishment, holding an extremely high position.

If he died at the hands of his own people, these four would certainly be hunted down by everyone in Spirit Hall.

Even Qian Daoliu would be unable to protect them from that!

However...

In the face of Chrysanthemum Douluo's threat.

Demon Bear Douluo's smile grew even brighter. His Demon Bear Martial Soul did not stop hammering at the barrier as he laughed loudly.

"Then I'll die. I'll die for Lord Qian Daoliu, willingly."

After saying that, Demon Bear Douluo once again swung his Demon Bear Martial Soul and brought the hammer down fiercely.

Boom!

Crack!

This time, Chrysanthemum Douluo's barrier was finally shaken slightly, and a crack finally appeared on its surface.

Seeing that crack, Demon Bear Douluo immediately called out to Ghost Leopard Douluo.

"Ghost Leopard, attack together! Ju Huaguan can't hold on any longer!"

As soon as his words fell, Ghost Leopard Douluo swiftly revealed his Black Panther Martial Soul and prepared to attack.

However...

Just then!

A childish voice suddenly rang out, directly interrupting the actions of the three people present.

"Let Chrysanthemum Grandpa go!"

They followed the voice and looked over.

They saw two adorable children standing there, both putting on fierce expressions as if they were threatening Demon Bear Douluo and the others.

Demon Bear Douluo saw the two of them, and his eyes immediately lit up.

"So it's you two. What a lucky break—we searched everywhere, and you delivered yourselves right to us!"

Seeing this, Chrysanthemum Douluo ignored his own situation and shouted, "Run!! Quickly!!"

At this point, Chrysanthemum Douluo was certain that he was doomed to die.

Since he could not survive, he could only place his hopes on these two little children surviving.

However...

Faced with Chrysanthemum Douluo's warning, Lin Ning showed off her slender little arms, swung them twice, and shouted.

"Chrysanthemum Grandpa, we'll take one, and you take one! It'll be easy!"

With that, Lin Ning looked directly at Lin An. The siblings exchanged a glance and immediately unleashed their trump card.

"Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Heaven Punishing Sword Array!"
