Douluo: Ruo Tuo Save Me

Whether it was her appearance, her movements, or her voice! No wonder he was someone from there!

Zhu Zhuqing: ...

She did not blame Zhong Li for failing to save her. They were complete strangers. Why should he save her?

Zhu Zhuqing was not blind, and she had noticed Zhong Li's attire.

She understood why the people her eldest sister had sent to "kill" her had changed so drastically before and after, even giving him money.

That was a force that had shocked the entire Douluo Continent overnight!

The so-called Upper Three Sects, before that force...

Even combined, they might not be enough for them to beat!

Zhu Zhuqing saw that the masked men were still staring in the direction Zhong Li had left.

"An opportunity!"

She hurriedly used her first Spirit Skill, Hell Stab.

The point she chose to break through was precisely the direction Zhong Li had left. Her destination for this journey, Suotuo City, was also in that direction...

Hell Stab allowed her to swiftly assassinate others while increasing her movement speed.

She did not choose to assassinate the masked men in that direction, because there was no one there either. Zhong Li had just walked through there!

The masked men had surely made way for him. They did not dare stop Zhong Li, and could not wait for him to leave sooner.

Before they could react, she quickly ran in that direction.

As an Agility Attack Type Spirit Master, Zhu Zhuqing was somewhat faster than Spirit Masters of the same rank.

Seeing this, it was time for the masked men to test their acting skills!

"Stop, Second Miss! You can't escape! Heh heh heh..."

"Heh heh heh, obediently come back with us!"

"Quick! Chase her! Don't let her get away, heh heh heh..."

Chase her, my ass. They pretended to pursue her for a moment before stopping.

Their purpose here was simple: to let Zhu Zhuqing know that her eldest sister wanted to "kill" her.

And to guide Zhu Zhuqing toward Suotuo City. Dai Mubai was there...

Zhong Li was not walking very fast. Zhu Zhuqing caught up to him in no time, swiftly passed him, and ran toward Suotuo City.

Neither of them greeted the other.

Zhu Zhuqing's thoughts at that moment were simple.

As long as she reached the city, those people would not dare openly try to kill her, right?

She was only a girl of just over eleven, not yet twelve.

Being hunted by a group of people terrified her.

Still unaware of the truth, Zhu Zhuqing desperately ran toward Suotuo City...

(Seeing this, you know whose pairing will be broken up, right?)

"What a strong-willed yet tragic girl. But fate toys with people, and she had no choice."

Zhong Li watched Zhu Zhuqing's departing back and sighed.

Ruo Tuo suddenly spoke from within Zhong Li's Sea of Consciousness.

"What, do you want to give her a choice?"

Zhong Li thought for a moment before replying,

"I won't force the matter. No one can make sense of fate. Let nature take its course."

"Perhaps a hundred years from now, perhaps a thousand years from now, she will still live on in my memories..."

As he continued to fuse with Morax's power, he would eventually surpass the limits of a human lifespan.

As for how long he could live, even he did not know.

"Still, Ruo Tuo, you haven't spoken in a long time."

This time, he did not snap at Ruo Tuo. This woman held grudges. Last time, he had merely called her Fat Tuo and Chubby Tuo, and she had made him die of embarrassment...

"Heh heh heh, didn't you not want to hear me speak?"

Hearing that, Zhong Li subconsciously replied,

"No, never."

"I just haven't been able to figure something out."

The woman in yellow who resided within Zhong Li's Sea of Consciousness heard him instinctively deny her words.

Rather than becoming angry, she revealed a stunning smile.

"What is it?"

"What you did to that rabbit when you first took control of me."

He still had not figured it out. He had no thoughts about Xiao Wu whatsoever. Why had Ruo Tuo...

"Would you want a rabbit with descendants of many different breeds to get close to you?"

Rather than answer directly, Ruo Tuo asked Zhong Li a question.

"..."

Zhong Li understood!

At This Moment, Ning Rongrong Was on Her Way to Heaven Dou Royal Academy

When an avalanche came, not a single snowflake was innocent.

The same was true of the storm stirred up by a butterfly's wings.

Grassroots Village

The woman nestled against the man's chest, her eyes filled with longing.

When a child traveled far from home, his mother worried.

It was a common failing shared by all mothers.

"Li'er, our son has his Second Uncle and the Ice Fire Elders protecting him. Even if a level 99 Peerless Douluo attacks, they can still take him and run..."

Zhong Tian had emotional intelligence, but apparently not much of it.

High emotional intelligence: Three Title Douluo protect him, so he can roam the Douluo Continent freely.

Low emotional intelligence: Someone might harm my son! But running away won't be a problem...

Gongsun Li glanced at Zhong Tian. After hearing you put it that way, I'm even more worried, okay?

"Tell me, wouldn't it be fine for our son to cultivate here in Grassroots Village? He could cultivate back in the clan too..."

Such a woman's view! Zhong Tian grumbled inwardly, but how could he dare say it aloud?

"Without enduring wind and rain, how can one see a rainbow? A fledgling eagle must eventually learn to fly on its own..."

Honestly, he was well-practiced at this! Since he had come of age, he had spent more than forty years reasoning with Gongsun Li.

The words came right out of his mouth. It was not only muscles that had memory; nerves had memory too.

Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect

Ever since their trip to Nuoding City, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had undergone considerable internal changes.

The First Offering Elder was a Super Douluo with strength as high as level 96.

Although Sword Douluo Chen Xin had lost an arm, his strength had become greater than before. There was Great Terror between life and death.

Breaking through to level 97 was not easy, but he had reached the peak of level 96, only one opportunity away.

"Uncle Sword, your..."

Over the past few years, the scene of him and Sword Douluo being ambushed had surfaced in Ning Fengzhi's mind from time to time.

Sword Douluo had lost his left arm protecting him. He could not let it go for a long time.

Not counting the one who had not acted.

Just those Title Douluo who wielded the same kind of Martial Soul, though with different attributes.

Even if their Soul Power cultivation had not been as high as Chen Xin's, their strength had been terrifying!

Ning Fengzhi never wanted to experience that feeling of being locked onto by their Martial Souls a second time in his life.

A glint of cold light arrived first, then Spear Emerges Like a Dragon. It perfectly demonstrated the terror of that spear Martial Soul.

Even the Seven Kill Sword, the number one attacking Martial Soul in the world, had never given him such a feeling.

"Fengzhi, stop thinking about that matter. Haven't you seen the changes across the continent over these past few years? That is an existence our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect cannot afford to offend..."

Chen Xin shook his head. It was not only Ning Fengzhi who could not let it go. How could he?

But what could they do? Falling behind meant taking a beating.

Ning Fengzhi only had level 79 Soul Power, so his perception had not been as clear as Chen Xin's.

Other than possibly having different attributes, the faint Spear Intent emanating from those Title Douluo all indicated that they belonged to the same clan.

The two who had fought him had not used any Spirit Skills at the beginning.

They had merely used their Martial Souls and Martial Arts, yet that alone had kept him busy defending himself.

He could clearly sense that after they used their Martial Soul Avatars, they received a boost that ordinary Martial Soul Avatars could never achieve!

It was a boost unrelated to the age of their Soul Rings!

What was even more outrageous was that after using their Martial Soul Avatars, they had actually displayed the Dragon Transformation possessed by the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan!

Terrifying indeed!

Fortunately, they had only wanted to teach him a lesson. Otherwise, they truly might have...

As for revenge? Forget it. The force that had suddenly been exposed several years ago left the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect without the slightest thought of retaliation.

They guessed that this force had at least twelve Title Douluo! How could the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, with only two Title Douluo, dare offend such a force?

"By the way, have you sent Rongrong to Heaven Dou Royal Academy?"

Not wishing to continue discussing that matter, Chen Xin asked Ning Fengzhi.

When Chen Xin was injured, Ning Rongrong had only just turned six.

At the time, she had cried her eyes out. Her beloved Grandpa Sword had lost an arm and could no longer hold her in both arms...

That had changed the young Ning Rongrong considerably.

She lost her former arrogance and worked hard at cultivation, dreaming of one day avenging her Grandpa Sword.

This had caused the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's other level 95 Bone Douluo, Gu Rong, to mock Chen Xin for a long time.

"Bastard, you've actually fallen so low that you need Rongrong to avenge you. Heh heh heh..."

Given their relationship, Chen Xin naturally did not get angry over Gu Rong's words.

Still, the two had fought and bickered for decades, so Chen Xin immediately declared battle!

"Yes. You and Uncle Gu have both seen Rongrong's performance over these past years."

"She is not yet twelve, but she has already reached level 28. Although the quality of students at Heaven Dou Royal Academy varies greatly, there are still some children there who cultivate diligently..."

Ning Fengzhi explained. He had also studied at Heaven Dou Royal Academy in the past, so he knew its circumstances well.

"Looks like losing this arm was worthwhile after all..."

Chen Xin sighed.

At the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Rongrong received even better treatment than an imperial princess. She was the treasured darling of the two Offering Elders.

She was also a genius with level 9 Innate Soul Power. The reason she cultivated so diligently truly had something to do with Sword Douluo losing his arm.
