The two were not only partners, but also biological siblings. For certain reasons, both had become Evil Soul Masters.

Since his sister was dead set on that kid, he might as well indulge her madness. They had both died once already—what was there to fear...

Asura God King Descends to the Lower Realm and Still Has to Take Two Slaps Before Leaving

You Ying was the name of the male Evil Soul Master, and he was You Meng's older brother. The two were twins, but You Meng had never wanted to be the younger sister.

Their becoming Evil Soul Masters could be considered fate playing tricks on them. They came from commoner backgrounds, but Martial Soul Awakening changed their destinies. Both possessed Soul Power, and it was not low, either.

At first, they had merely been innocent youths. At twelve or thirteen years old, their cultivation had already reached Level 19.

Then, because You Meng was too beautiful, a spoiled young master took a liking to her. After being rejected, that young master tried to force himself on her!

Fortunately, their master saved You Meng. But that was precisely the beginning of hell...

Their master was an Evil Soul Master at the Soul Fighting Douluo level. Gradually, the two of them became Evil Soul Masters as well. Murder and arson... (They were going to die anyway, so no need to pad this out.)

Back to the point.

"How should I deal with these two Soul Saints?"

Zhong Li pondered again, thinking about how to face the two Soul Saints.

"I say, Morax, what exactly are you thinking? So what if you're exposed? With me here, even if this world's so-called Asura God King descends to the lower realm, he'd still have to take two slaps before leaving!"

At that moment, Ruo Tuo spoke in Zhong Li's mind. She simply could not understand it. He had once been such an arrogant person—how had he become so much like a "social reject" now?①

Zhong Li: If you'd said that earlier, would I have needed to worry?

"Heh heh heh! Do you think you've got me cornered just like that?"

After hearing Ruo Tuo's words, Zhong Li's entire demeanor changed. The Rock King Emperor's "Divine Armor," which he had prepared long ago, somehow appeared on him.

You Ying and You Meng: ...

Zhu Zhuqing: "Zhong Li, you..."

"So handsome!"

"Vortex of Thunder!"

As Zhong Li shouted, the Vortex of Thunder appeared in his hand. Six earthy-yellow Soul Rings threaded with faint gold emerged around him. Each Soul Ring bore six Rock Element Marks.

"A Soul Emperor! What kind of Soul Rings are those?!"

The siblings' expressions changed. Such a young Soul Emperor! And his Soul Rings were strange!

Zhu Zhuqing: Zhong Li actually had Twin Martial Souls! He was even a six-ring Soul Emperor!

Dai Mubai: Damn! If I survive today, with Zhong Li's help, the throne will be within my grasp! Twin Martial Souls, a twelve-year-old Soul Emperor!

The three Zhong Family members were the most shocked. They had never seen Zhong Li add Soul Rings to this Martial Soul. And the colors of those Soul Rings were so strange—they had never even heard of them.

"God-given Soul Rings!"

When in doubt, quantum mechanics.

On Douluo Continent, many things that could not be explained could be attributed to a Mutated Martial Soul.

Then Soul Rings that could not be explained could also be attributed to God-given Soul Rings.

As long as you dared to say it, someone would dare to believe it.

"Kid! So what if you're a Soul Emperor? So what if your Soul Rings are strange? We are two Soul Saints! In a few years, we may not be your match, but right now, you still have no right to act arrogant before Soul Saints! Today, I will teach you what weakness—"

After his surprise faded, You Ying's killing intent surged.

If Zhong Li had merely been an ordinary genius, that would have been fine. But such a young Soul Emperor—letting him go would undoubtedly be like releasing a tiger back into the mountains.

Once he grew stronger, no! In just a few years, the two siblings might face endless pursuit and slaughter...

"Hmph. Mere Soul Saints. How shamelessly boastful!"

"First Spirit Skill: Impregnable Fortress!"

What Spirit Skill? It was nothing more than for show.

An earthy-yellow shield appeared around Zhong Li and the other two. It was the first skill he had inherited, the Jade Screen Shield.

He had originally planned to lie low for a while, but since Ruo Tuo had spoken, why keep lying low?

"Heh heh heh... You spear-wielding Spirit Master, and your Spirit Skill is actually a group shield? Watch me smash that turtle shell of yours to pieces!"

As You Ying spoke, he released his Martial Soul.

"Ghost Shadow Wolf Possession!"

After Martial Soul Possession, numerous wolf-like traits appeared across his body, while a black mist tinged with red enveloped him. That red mist was the blood energy left behind after he killed others and devoured it...

As You Ying released his Martial Soul, two yellow, two purple, and three black Soul Rings appeared beneath his feet.

"Don't let your guard down! Big sister will help you." In the end, You Meng chose family. That handsome young man Zhong Li was simply not fated to be hers.

"Ghost Fox Possession!"

Two yellow, two purple, and three black Soul Rings likewise appeared beneath her.

You Meng had already been alluring and beautiful, but after Martial Soul Possession, her exotic charm became even more pronounced...

"A little wolf pup and a little fox. Where did you find the courage to stand before me, Morax?"

Zhong Li glanced at the two of them and spoke disdainfully. No matter how beautiful You Meng was, in his eyes, she was nothing more than a pretty skeleton.

Morax was the arrogant one. What did that have to do with Zhong Li?

"All-Encompassing!"

Zhong Li did not even bother making up which Spirit Skill it was. He had already used the shield earlier.

Facing the two who had released their Martial Souls and instantly lunged before him, he opened with All-Encompassing!

As All-Encompassing was unleashed, an enormous earthy-yellow meteor appeared in the sky.

Zhong Li raised his right hand high, as though grasping that meteor, then crossed his arms over his chest. The earthy-yellow meteor crashed straight toward the ground!

As for where the Vortex of Thunder had gone, it was naturally floating behind his back.

"?"

Where had the siblings ever seen such a sight? Was this really necessary? Could a Soul Emperor really unleash an attack like this?

Dai Mubai had already retreated one step, then two... A few days ago, I actually survived an attack from someone like him! Heaven truly has mercy on me, Dai Mubai!

Zhu Zhuqing did not retreat. Instead, she used her Martial Soul and prepared to fight these two to the death. Zhong Li could fly. If she did not hold him back, then...

As for Dai Mubai, she did not spare him a single thought...

"Mora—pfft... Damn! A taboo!"

Just as Zhong Daoming was about to say Morax's name, he instantly felt Great Terror descend upon him and nearly spat out blood.

He immediately realized what had happened. That name could not be spoken! It was taboo!

He had thought he was about to die, but for some reason, he was not injured at all!

The Ice Fire Elders were dumbfounded! A taboo! That kid Zhong Li actually called himself a taboo! Damn!

"Zhong Li might not be human..."

"Smack!"

Fire Elder struck Ice Elder on the head.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Zhong Li is one of our Zhong Family! Otherwise, why do you think Daoming wasn't hurt?"

A taboo—what kind of existence was that? Forget speaking of it, one could not even think about it.

"What chosen one? This is clearly a great god reincarnated..."

"If this gets back to the family..."

"Let's take this to our graves. Maybe before you even tell anyone, you'll already be dead. We are seven or eight generations removed from Zhong Li by blood. Who knows..."

(The meteor was falling really slowly...)

When You Ying and You Meng saw the "natural disaster" descend, they were utterly dumbstruck.

"Martial Soul Avatar!" x2

"Sixth Spirit Skill: Ghost Shadows Everywhere!"

"Sixth Spirit Skill: Ghost..."

To be continued...

You Meng's Gift (Bonus Chapter for Boss Li Shunsheng)

"Boom!"

As the Heavenly Star formed from Rock Element fell and collided with the ground, the earth trembled amid a deafening explosion.

A "meteor crater" spanning a hundred meters appeared before everyone.

Zhong Li's group of three was also inside the "meteor crater," but protected by the Jade Screen Shield, not even a strand of their hair was disturbed.

Even after activating their Martial Soul Avatars, the You Ying siblings did not even have the chance to be petrified before turning into fragments of stone.

Zhong Li curled his lip disdainfully and said,

"That's it? How could I possibly lose?"

As Morax's power fused into him, Zhong Li's strength and temperament had long since undergone earth-shaking changes.

How arrogant was Morax? One only had to look at the statue to know.

"This is your true personality. Why hide it? Heh heh heh..."②

Looking at the scene before him, Zhong Li put away the Vortex of Thunder.

"Zhong Li, they..."

Zhu Zhuqing's voice trembled slightly. When the Heavenly Star had fallen just now, she had felt as though she was about to die. But being with him did not seem so bad...

"There. Those stones are them."

Zhong Li pointed toward the scattered rubble.

His first time killing someone, he felt no discomfort at all. It was like stepping on ants while walking—his heart did not ripple in the slightest.

"Huh, there's actually a Soul Bone?"

He looked at the fragments of stone. There was unexpectedly a fluctuation of Soul Power among them.

"A Soul Bone shouldn't have survived. What's going on?"

As Zhong Li puzzled over it, Ruo Tuo's voice sounded in his mind again. Yet for some reason, it carried a trace of resentment.

"Didn't I see that little fox had a Soul Bone suitable for your little girlfriend? So I helped you protect it. Heh heh heh..."

No matter how small a mosquito was, it was still meat. It could not go to waste.

Hearing Ruo Tuo say that, Zhong Li thought back on both his past and present lives. He suddenly realized how miserable he was. An invisible sorrow crashed over him head-on.

"Ruo Tuo, I've been single for two lifetimes! I've never even held a girl's hand! Where would I get a little girlfriend?"

Zhong Li spoke mournfully. Ruo Tuo was teasing him again.

"Tsk tsk. You went on a date with her, grilled fish for her, and you're still saying she isn't your little girlfriend."

"..."

"Dai Mubai and the owner ate some too."

Ruo Tuo: Have you ever considered that there might be a reason you've been single?

She could not be bothered to waste words with Zhong Li. Since he had said to leave it to fate, then leave it to fate. She thought Little Kitten was quite good, though. Ehm... she looked like she would bear children easily.

Seeing that Ruo Tuo suddenly ignored him again, Zhong Li said nothing further. With a wave of his hand, the Soul Bone burst out from the rubble and landed in his palm.

"A Soul Bone over thirty thousand years old. It should have dropped when she obtained her seventh Soul Ring."

It was a Right Arm Bone. He did not know what Soul Beast it had dropped from. The Soul Bone was light as a feather, seeming to have no weight at all.

Under Dai Mubai's astonished gaze, Zhong Li casually handed it to Zhu Zhuqing beside him. The Soul Bone was useless to him. With his current strength, even a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone would have limited use.
