Xu Tianran Loses Another Leg

Hearing Dark Cloud Douluo's threat, Jiang Heng nearly failed to keep a straight face and burst out laughing!

Would he be afraid of such a threat?

He wished the other party would immediately self-destruct over Ming Capital and put on a fireworks show for the human Soul Masters!

"Seventh Soul Skill, Martial Soul Avatar!"

"Ninth Soul Skill, Dark Tiger Soul Destruction!"

At that moment, Scorpion Tiger Douluo Zhang Peng unleashed his Soul Skill again. Despite the severe damage to his Spirit Sea, he was determined to deal his opponent a fatal blow.

Only then would they have a chance of escaping from the hands of a Limit Douluo.

After years of cooperation, Dark Cloud Douluo was already thoroughly familiar with Scorpion Tiger Douluo Zhang Peng's methods.

The instant Zhang Peng used his Ninth Soul Skill to strike Jiang Heng, Wu Yun, who had been threatening him verbally and fleeing in panic only moments ago, immediately unleashed his most powerful Soul Skill.

"Seventh Soul Skill, Martial Soul Avatar!"

"Ninth Soul Skill, Heaven Soul Devouring Crow!"

The two Super Douluos activated their Martial Soul Avatars at the same time.

The nearly hundred-meter-long Scorpion Tiger stretched across the heavens, baring its sharpest fangs as it launched a lethal attack at Jiang Heng.

Jiang Heng completely ignored Dark Cloud Douluo and turned to look at Scorpion Tiger Douluo Zhang Peng behind him.

Now this was more like it.

Today, he intended to use thunderous means to intimidate the Holy Spirit Cult and let them know that he was not someone to be trifled with.

If they had any more unnecessary ideas in the future, they had better think twice.

"Star Breaker!"

The moment Jiang Heng turned around, his right hand transformed directly into a dragon claw, much like the Heaven Dragon Sect's Dragon Transformation Secret Technique.

The dragon claw carried the fusion of his spiritual power and Soul Power, along with his unyielding will to tear everything apart.

As for Dark Cloud Douluo behind him, Jiang Heng truly did not take him seriously. Not to mention that the other party could not break through the Class 9 defensive Soul Tool he wore, even if he had that strength, given Jiang Heng's Martial Soul quality and cultivation level, he could not harm Jiang Heng's physical body at all.

If this battle had taken place within the Star Dou Great Forest, he would have casually tortured Dark Cloud Douluo to death long ago.

Why bother playing a game of cat and mouse here?

The one he truly needed to take seriously was Scorpion Tiger Douluo Zhang Peng. Not only had the other party reached Rank 96, but his Martial Soul was also of exceptional quality.

The Scorpion Tiger, a subordinate Martial Soul of the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger, not only possessed the Dark Demon Evil God Tiger's devouring ability but also carried darkness and piercing damage.

Therefore, he had to kill him at once!

"Boom!"

With a muffled explosion, the massive Scorpion Tiger formed by Scorpion Tiger Douluo's Martial Soul Avatar collided with Jiang Heng's dragon claw.

Although Scorpion Tiger Douluo could absorb the Soul Power contained within Jiang Heng's attacks, the power of this Star Breaker strike was absolutely not something he could withstand.

"Something's wrong... this Soul Power..."

"This isn't Soul Power a human should possess!"

Through his Soul Skill, Zhang Peng immediately sensed that something was wrong. This mysterious Title Douluo before him was not human.

He was a Soul Beast!

In an instant, countless possibilities flashed through Zhang Peng's mind.

This discovery was beyond imagination.

A Soul Beast—no, a Fierce Beast—had disguised himself as a human and infiltrated the human world. Whatever he sought was surely beyond imagination.

Zhang Peng only wanted to flee at once. Even if he had to sacrifice half his life today, he had to spread this information.

"You noticed? Too late!"

Just as Zhang Peng made a move, a green ray flew from Jiang Heng's brow, piercing through layer after layer of Zhang Peng's defenses and striking him between the eyebrows.

It was the Blade of Life!

"You..."

He wanted to say something more, but Jiang Heng slapped him to death.

At that moment, Dark Cloud Douluo's attack also struck Jiang Heng's body, only to be blocked by a light barrier. It was the Class 9 Soul Tool he had obtained from Xu Tianran.

"Star Breaker!"

Then he turned and slammed Dark Cloud Douluo with a dragon claw.

"Bang!"

With a dull thud, the dragon claw smashed heavily into Dark Cloud Douluo, shattering his defenses in one blow and taking half his life.

The difference between them was simply too great.

Or rather, this Dark Cloud Douluo's Martial Soul was too weak.

Jiang Heng did not kill him. Instead, he sealed his Soul Core, intending to take him back as nourishment for Ye Guyi.

Only then did he look toward the Soul Bones that had dropped from Scorpion Tiger Douluo's death some distance away.

Two fairly high-quality Ten Thousand Year Soul Bones—not bad. The other party's Storage Soul Tool was also packed with spoils.

After cleaning everything up, Jiang Heng directly grabbed Dark Cloud Douluo, whose Soul Core had been sealed, and headed straight for the Crown Prince Mansion.

As for the aftermath of the battle outside the city, others would handle it.

Many people within the city witnessed Jiang Heng so cleanly and decisively defeating two Title Douluos, killing one and capturing the other alive. After all, Ming Capital had no city walls, and many Class 9 Soul Engineers had even preserved the details of the battle using Image Recording Orbs.

Many were shocked by Jiang Heng, this mysterious expert who had suddenly emerged. After learning that he held a position in the Martial Soul Department of the Royal Academy, they began making plans to use every possible connection and their family juniors to befriend this expert.

Without meaning to, Jiang Heng once again stirred up turmoil in the Sun Moon Empire's Ming Capital.

He did not care about any of it.

What occupied his mind now was further intimidation.

His next move would not be to intimidate the Holy Spirit Cult, but the crown prince who had successfully stood up again.

He did not believe that Crown Prince Xu Tianran knew nothing about the Holy Spirit Cult's assassination attempt.

Even if Xu Tianran truly did not know, so what?

Jiang Heng had already decided that he did.

Therefore, instead of returning to Sun Moon Royal Academy first, he carried a Title Douluo-level Evil Soul Master straight to the crown prince's residence.

With the crown prince's token, no one dared stop him along the way.

"Your Excellency, His Highness has already retired for the night."

"If there is anything you need, I can relay it on your behalf!"

Before the Crown Prince Mansion, Xu Tianran's maid, Ju Zi, stepped forward to stop Jiang Heng.

Clearly, both Xu Tianran and Ju Zi already knew what had happened outside the city.

Though Ju Zi was terrified at the moment, she did not dare disobey the crown prince's orders.

"Move aside within three breaths, or die!"

Jiang Heng's cold voice rang out. He did not care in the slightest for this so-called future legendary empress.

No matter how extravagantly she was praised, he had never seen any genuine talent in her.

Weapons and equipment, strategic concepts and ideas—they were all overwhelming advantages from a higher level. To put it bluntly, even tying a dog to the commander's seat would have won such a battle.

(Except for the Door-Knocking Emperor!)

"Your Excellency..."

Just as Ju Zi was about to say something, a sharp chill suddenly erupted from Jiang Heng.

In an instant, Ju Zi's face went pale.

She could clearly sense that she would die the very next moment.

This was absolutely no illusion.

She was terrified. Her heart went cold.

The man before her was not making a threat. He truly would act.

I can't die yet. I haven't avenged my father, and I haven't destroyed the White Tiger Duke Mansion!

Ju Zi repeated this to herself again and again, constantly urging herself to move and stop blocking this person.

The problem was that she had been frightened so badly that she could not move at all.

"Senior, why frighten my maid?"

At the critical moment, Xu Tianran could no longer restrain himself and had no choice but to rise and meet him.

After all, he regarded Ju Zi as his personal possession. How could he allow anyone other than himself to harm her?

"You've become a Title Douluo. Is that where your confidence comes from?"

Jiang Heng looked at Xu Tianran standing before him with nine Soul Rings displayed around him. Xu Tianran's blood-red Ninth Soul Ring in particular was an eyesore.

So Jiang Heng directly severed one of Xu Tianran's legs!
