Super Douluo Guardian

"Dad, besides me, there was another child in the village today with Innate Full Soul Power."

Having basked in his father's love, Tang San told Tang Hao about Lin Qi.

"What?"

Tang Hao was greatly shocked. Innate Full Soul Power was exceedingly rare. Tang San possessed the exceptionally rare Twin Martial Souls, which was why he had Innate Full Soul Power.

How could an ordinary child from a village also possess Innate Full Soul Power?

"Who is it?"

Tang San thought for a moment. He did not care much about the other villagers, but Lin Qi had mentioned his name today. After thinking about it, Tang San remembered.

"Lin Qi. His name is Lin Qi."

"What is his Martial Soul?" Tang Hao asked again.

"It's a sword. It looks rather unique."

Tang San did not mention that his Clear Sky Hammer Martial Soul had seemed to be suppressed, since it was probably just an illusion.

"A sword? A Weapon Martial Soul?"

Tang Hao frowned. The Clear Sky Sect was the number one sect in the world, and the Clear Sky Hammer Martial Soul had always been the number one Weapon Martial Soul.

Yet even so, within the Clear Sky Sect, it could take many years for a disciple with Innate Full Soul Power to appear.

However, Tang Hao did not believe Lin Qi's Martial Soul could be stronger than the Clear Sky Hammer. The Clear Sky Sect had been passed down for so many years, and Tang Hao had absolute confidence in the Clear Sky Hammer Martial Soul.

"Oh, right. That Spirit Hall Soul Master kept trying to invite him to join Spirit Hall."

Tang Hao's gaze instantly turned fierce.

Spirit Hall was his mortal enemy. He could not allow such an exceptionally talented child to join Spirit Hall and further strengthen its power.

If this child named Lin Qi became one of Spirit Hall's people, he would definitely become Little San's great enemy in the future.

"Has Lin Qi already left with the people from Spirit Hall?"

Tang Hao was already considering intercepting him and strangling the threat in its cradle.

Even if Lin Qi had already been taken to Nuoding City, a mere Spirit Hall branch in a remote province could not stop him.

"No." Tang San did not understand why Tang Hao cared so much about Lin Qi's affairs.

"Lin Qi said he needed to think about it and would give them an answer after going to Nuoding City."

"Is that so?"

The killing intent burning in Tang Hao's chest subsided somewhat.

Since you have not made the wrong choice yet, I'll give you one chance.

When Little San faced Spirit Hall in the future, he would also need capable helpers, just as the Four Single-Attribute Clans served the Clear Sky Sect.

Being able to become Little San's subordinate would also be his greatest honor.

At Lin Qi's home, he was wondering when Tang Hao would come.

That was right. The reason he had not immediately rejected Su Yuntao's invitation was because he wanted to wait for Tang Hao to come looking for him.

He did not believe Tang Hao could simply watch him join Spirit Hall without doing anything.

"Haozi, Haozi, you'd better come quickly."

Inside the room, Lin Qi activated his Body of Fortune Martial Soul.

In the Body of Fortune state, Lin Qi felt that the world before him had become much clearer. Through the window, he could see distant places that he had never been able to make out before.

Beyond his sight, his hearing, sense of smell, and every other form of perception had risen to an unimaginable level.

If he wished, he could even hear the wind brushing through leaves ten miles away.

It was as if the wind wished to bring him information, while the leaves were willing to dance for him.

Both of Lin Qi's Martial Souls were absurdly high in quality, but their main effects lay in their various special abilities. Otherwise, his Innate Soul Power would probably not have stopped at level twenty.

After happily finishing the dinner Village Chief Jack had sent over, Lin Qi prepared to enter the Body of Fortune state once more.

In that state, his Soul Power circulated on its own, moving in the manner most suited to him.

Lin Qi had never encountered any other meditation methods, but he believed that no other method of meditation could surpass himself in this state.

Suddenly, the system sounded a notification.

[Ding! Detected a powerful mysterious guardian beside Tang San, the target suppressing the host's background]

[Background Suppression activated. Rewarding the host with one level ninety-eight Titled Douluo Guardian]

Mysterious guardian, my ass. Isn't that Tang Hao?

Lin Qi was somewhat speechless.

Tang Hao really could not keep his cool. At this hour, several households in the village still had their lights on, yet he had already come impatiently.

But his timing was perfect. If you didn't come, when would my reward ever trigger?

Lin Qi waited for a while, then found it rather strange.

Where was the Guardian the system mentioned? Why had he not arrived yet? Did he have to wait until Tang Hao arrived before appearing?

In the darkness of night, Tang Hao's figure blended into the shadows as he rapidly approached Lin Qi's home.

Suddenly, Tang Hao came to an abrupt stop.

"Who are you?"

Not far ahead of him, a tall figure was blocking the way.

More importantly, Tang Hao had not even noticed when he had appeared.

If his eyes had not clearly seen him, he would not even have sensed that a person was standing there.

A powerful expert. This man was absolutely a powerful expert, perhaps even stronger than Tang Hao at his peak.

"Hmph. I am Young Master's Guardian. You sneaky rat, how dare you threaten Young Master's safety?"

Young Master?

Tang Hao was puzzled. Such a powerful expert was merely some Young Master's Guardian?

Even the young sect masters of the Upper Three Sects did not have guards of this caliber. Not even Spirit Hall was this generous.

"Could the Young Master you speak of be Lin Qi?"

This man's appearance could not have been without reason. Thinking of what he had come to do, Tang Hao asked in disbelief.

How could an ordinary child from a village possess such a powerful Guardian? Even if he were the Pope of Spirit Hall's illegitimate son, it would not make sense.

"Hmph. Pay for your foolishness."

Tang Hao's pupils suddenly contracted. That man's figure vanished in an instant, and the intense sense of danger made Tang Hao's scalp tingle.

Boom—

The violent explosion awakened everyone in Holy Spirit Village who had already fallen asleep, while those still awake were badly startled.

Roosters crowed and dogs barked from all directions, mixed with the cries of cattle and sheep.

"What happened? What was that?"

"Was it an earthquake? Or did a mountain collapse somewhere?"

Villagers rushed out of their homes one after another.

"Little Qi, Little Qi, are you all right?"

Old Jack was the first to run over to Lin Qi's place. Only after seeing that he was still safe and sound did he let out a great sigh of relief.

"Village Chief Grandfather, I'm fine. What happened?"

"I don't know. It's good that you're all right, Little Qi. It may have been an earthquake. Don't stay inside the house."

After saying that, Village Chief Jack felt his way toward the source of the Loud Noise.

"Here! There's such a huge pit. Could it be a meteorite?"

Not far outside the village, a huge pit more than ten meters across had appeared.

"There isn't even a meteorite here. Niu Er, did you hide it, you brat? You were the first one here."

Meteorites were highly valuable on the Douluo Continent. Some Soul Masters bought meteorites at high prices.

If they had truly found a meteorite, they would certainly be able to sell it for a hefty sum.

"Bullshit." Niu Er's face turned red.

"I only got here one step before you. I never even climbed down there. Did I hide it in your pants?"

"Hahaha!" Everyone burst into laughter.

A villager with sharper eyes suddenly pointed toward a spot in the center of the pit.

"What's that red thing over there?"

Several bold men climbed down to take a look, then quickly scrambled back up even faster than they had descended.

"What is it?"

"Why are you all so scared?"

"Blood. It's blood."

Niu Er was also one of those who had gone down. The tall, burly man's face was now drained completely pale with fright.
