In Spirit City, in a hidden manor.
A tall man wearing a ghost mask was sipping tea alone in a dark quiet room. At this time, another thin figure walked in and sat directly opposite the tall man.
"Tsk, tsk, Soul Master World and the mysterious Shadow Dragon Hall are actually hiding in Spirit City. It's really unexpected. Tell me, who are you looking for to kill me?"
The tall man put down the tea cup and said, "Brother Shi Nian has misunderstood. We Shadow Dragon Hall are at home all over the world and have no stronghold. We meet here just because the target is here."
Shi Nian narrowed his eyes slightly, "Oh? The target is here? Although my Residual Dream Martial Soul can kill people invisible, it can't be as invisible as it is. The person Shadow Dragon Hall offered one million Gold Soul Coin to kill is probably not an ordinary person. To kill someone in Spirit City, to be honest, the risk is too great."
"I'm afraid this deal won't go through."
The corner of the tall man's mouth curled up and he said, "Haha, don't worry, of course I won't let you do anything in Spirit City, because the target this time is Title, and I don't dare to say that you can succeed in the city."
"Moreover, I didn't ask you to act alone when I came here. After all, the target has a certain immunity to mind control. You are just a part of this assassination plan to ensure that the target can be killed quickly in a short time."
Shi Nian frowned and said in confusion, "The ability to be immune to mind control? Isn't this Residual Dream Martial Soul that completely restrains me? Why are you looking for me to do this?"
"Don't worry, although the target has certain Illusion Immunity abilities, he is still just a Soul Grandmaster, and his abilities are still very weak."
Shi Nian understood, "So it's just Soul Grandmaster, then what I have to do is control the other party into your sure-kill trap?"
"Smart and professional as expected." The tall man praised him.
Facing the praise, Shi Nian's expression did not change much, but he said with some curiosity, "You have spent such a big price to just let me assist in the kill, and the opponent is just Soul Grandmaster. I really want to know who the target is?"
The tall man said, "I can't tell you yet. What I can reveal is that the background of this target is very big. It is a young genius Soul Master. How about it? Do you dare to take it?"
Shi Nian smiled, a little unruly, "When it comes to killing people invisible, no one dares to call me Residual Dream Martial Soul the second, but no one dares to call me the first. There are quite a few geniuses Soul Master who have died in my Remnant Dream over the years, but none of them can be traced to me. Not to mention my background, even if I am the King of Heaven, as long as I can't find the murderer, what can I do?"
The tall man clapped his hands, "Okay, so, brother Shi Nian agrees?"
Shi Nian said, "I can take it, but there is one thing. After the deal is completed, in addition to one million Gold Soul Coin, I also need Shadow Dragon Hall to find me a stable job. After completing this order, I will wash my hands of the job."
The tall man said boldly, "No problem, you can stay at Spirit City first. I will tell you the specific action plan later."
"Okay, happy working together."
"A pleasure to work with."
After receiving the order, Shi Nian put on the gray hood and left the manor.
After a while, a tall man wearing an evil ghost mask also walked out of the quiet room, looked at Shi Nian who had already left, and took off his mask.
Under the outdoor skylight, the tall man's appearance was clearly revealed.
It is Spirit Hall Elite Training's leading teacher, Borba!

After Xu Huxiao returned home from Great Soul Arena, he went straight to the pavilion of Martial Arena and began to meditate.
He is waiting for someone, someone who collects information about Lei Dao.
Xu Huxiao didn't wait long. After a while, he opened his eyes and took the initiative to end the meditation practice.
Just at this time, a handsome man in white had arrived at the pavilion.
This man had a feminine and handsome face, holding a jade fan. What stood out was his pair of mysterious, deep red pupils.
Xu Bayan The vice-captain in Blizzard Squad, Martial Soul ruby, level seventy-eight Soul Sage, Lin Mengmeng.
Xu Huxiao saw the visitor, nodded in respect, and called, "Uncle Lin, please excuse me."
Lin Mengmeng said, "No trouble, Huxiao, I heard from my elder brother that you want to know the current information of former elder Lei Dao?"
Xu Huxiao nodded and said, "Yes, Uncle Lin."
Lin Mengmeng looked at the slightly calm young man in front of him, chuckled, and said, "I can't tell you are a young man, but you are quite vindictive. This is good. Back then, Lei Dao and Flash Mongoose teamed up to target Xu Family. Although now one of them is dead and the other is seriously injured, they have received their due retribution, but snakes should be beaten to death."
"If you want to know the information about Lei Dao, then I will tell you."
The two sat down, Lin Mengmeng shook his jade fan gently, and began to tell Xu Huxiao the information he had collected over the years one by one.
"·······If you cut the grass without eradicating the root, it will grow again when the spring breeze blows. In fact, big brother also understands this truth. We Blizzard Squad have been doing this kind of thing all these years. Now Flash Marten Lin Family's remnants Most of them have been wiped out by us secretly, but Lei Dao, who was seriously injured, took his family and fled back to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. Now he can't get out, so it's not easy to take action."
"As for Lei Dao's personal location information, it is now certain that since he entered Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's clan, he seems to have disappeared and has never appeared in front of others."
"We have never found his whereabouts, but as far as I know from my investigation, this severely disabled Lei Dao Douluo is no longer a threat to the Xu Family."
"Because, after the Spirit Hall siege Tang Hao failed, Lei Dao, the old dog, was seriously injured and was relieved of his duties as Spirit Hall elders. The reason why he and his family were able to return to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and be protected was because he gave his own life Left Arm Soul Bone, stripped off Left Arm Soul Bone, and severely damaged by Clear Sky Hammer, Lei Dao's strength has now dropped to the Soul Sage level. To be specific, it may be a little more powerful than the ordinary Soul Sage level."
Having said this, Xu Huxiao asked, "Uncle Lin, is the information about Lei Dao's strength reliable?"
Lin Mengmeng's self-channel. "Of course it is reliable, even more reliable than Lei Dao himself knows. But don't forget, my Ruby Martial Soul is specifically following the Mental Detection route. It can be said that currently Ruby Martial Soul in mainland China is Soul Fighting There are many people who are stronger than me, but in Mental Detection, my Ruby Martial Soul has a natural advantage. There are no people who can surpass me in this. After all, there are people outside the world, but there are definitely very few."
"So, you don't have to worry about the authenticity of the information. However, there is one thing. This information was from a year ago. Now Lei Dao has disappeared from the world. There is no way to get the latest information. However, according to my investigation, Lei Dao's injuries are extremely serious. There is no possibility of recovery. His strength will only be worse than a year ago."
After saying that, Lin Mengmeng closed the jade fan and took a sip of the herbal tea on the table.
"That's about it Lei Dao's information. Huxiao, is there anything else you want to know?"
Xu Huxiao said, "That's it, no more, thank you Uncle Lin."
Lin Mengmeng smiled and did not leave immediately. Instead, he looked at Xu Huxiao with some curiosity. His eyes were like seeing a precious jade.
"You're welcome, but are you really at level 24 now? This level of Soul Power has basically reached the high level of Soul Ancestor. I didn't believe it when I heard what the elder brother said. Now that I see it, it's incredible."
"Uncle Lin, I am indeed Soul Grandmaster now. I don't know about Soul Power. Maybe it's because of my natural constitution." Xu Huxiao scratched his head and said honestly.
"This is a rare talent. Just practice with peace of mind. Don't worry, what happened six years ago will not happen again."
"Hmm."
······
Spirit Hall Intermediate Soul Master Academy.
On Blazing Sun Lake Heart Island, inside the girls' dormitory for elite training.
Xu Yanran finished her meditation and planned to read a novel for a while and take a break. Just when she picked up a copy of the recently popular "The Sweet Wife Doesn't Act Like a Baby, the Overbearing Douluo Falls in Love with Me", the dormitory door opened.
Xu Yanran took a look and saw that it was Orleans with a burgundy high ponytail.
"Hey, I'm back from skipping class. Why do I look so worried? Who messed with our good sister again? It couldn't be my cousin again, right?"
As soon as Orleans saw Xu Yanran, he felt aggrieved. The emotion of being frightened by Xu Huxiao's murderous thoughts this morning suddenly burst out. The corners of his mouth shrank, and he threw himself into Xu Yanran's arms and cried:
"Woo~ That's the bad guy, sister Yanran, am I very annoying? Did I really do something wrong? He really hates me. Wuwu, what should I do?"
This cry was like a river bursting its embankment, soaking a large area of Xu Yanran's pajamas. Xu Yanran had to keep comforting her. When the good sister on her shoulder gradually calmed down, she learned what happened from Orleans's mouth.
At this time, Orleans finished speaking, and his beautiful eyes were already red and swollen, looking at Xu Yanran eagerly, like a drowning person holding on to the last life-saving straw.
Xu Yanran Seeing her like this and listening to her narration, her words were full of sadness and sadness, but she just refused to say anything.
"Sister Liang, boys tend to be soft-spoken rather than tough-minded. If you're twisting him like this and being so tough, of course he's annoying you."
Orleans was still sobbing a little, "But... but, wuwu, you said that by confronting him, you can vent your anger and make him beg for mercy."
"Yes, after you did this, he showed obvious disgust. Doesn't it mean that what you did made him unhappy? Now you hate him, and he hates you. Isn't this the best result? If you think it's not enough, you can continue to punish him, do everything against him, and make him hate you to death. In this way, won't you achieve the effect of venting your anger?"
Orleans became more and more anxious the more he listened, "No, no, I don't want him to hate me, I am..."
Xu Yanran Seeing that his tough-tongued best friend was telling the truth, he struck while the iron was hot and asked, "You don't want him to be annoying, so what do you want?"
"I think... I... I don't care, I don't care! Anyway, sister Yanran, you have to help me, woohoo~" Orleans was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to say it, and the tears of grievance were about to fall again.
Xu Yanran Seeing this, he quickly wiped her with a handkerchief.
"Oh, my little ancestor has cried like a little cat. Since you want me to help you, let me ask you a question, and you must answer me truthfully."
Orleans looked at her pitifully, "What's the problem?"
Xu Yanran said, "Do you like my cousin, the kind of love between men and women?"
"Like it or not, answer me."
Orleans said, "I... I don't know. His shadow has been in my head for the past few months, which has caused my meditation efficiency to slow down. Anyway, I just don't want him to hate me. I want him to speak gentler to me. I want him to practice with me. I want him to know that I..."
"Okay, I admit it, I like him and this bad guy!"
"I don't know when it started. I always pay attention to him, his words and deeds, his training, his thoughts, and his attitude towards me. When I see him, I unconsciously feel happy. Anyway, it's the feeling that I want to be with him every day."
"But, he doesn't seem to like me, and now he hates me."
"Sister Yanran, what do you think I should do?"
Orleans From the beginning it was difficult to speak, but then he lowered his head and his tender white fingers messed up the corners of his clothes, and finally he revealed everything at once.
Seeing that his best friend had told her true thoughts, Xu Yanran smiled confidently, "Since you admit it with dignity, there is still room for action."
Hearing this, Orleans said, "Sister Yanran, what do you say, I will do whatever you ask me to do."
Xu Yanran said, "But I have to ask you again, do you really like my cousin?"
Orleans didn't hesitate this time, "I like him, I like him, if I can make him like me too, sister Yanran, you will be my savior!"
Looking at Orleans's courageous look, Xu Yanran smiled, daring to love and hate. This is where the two have similar personalities.
"Since you like it, I'll tell you my method. As for whether you adopt it or not, that's your business."
"Yeah, sister Yanran, tell me quickly."
Xu Yanran didn't give in, picked up the novel on the table and said, "This is what I saw in the book. If you still want to win my cousin's heart in your current situation, conventional methods will no longer work, so you have to use some special means."
"Special means?" Orleans looked at the "Dear Wife Doesn't Act Like a Baby, Domineering Douluo Falls in Love with Me!" in Xu Yanran's hand, showing a puzzled expression.
Xu Yanran said mysteriously, "Yes, special means, sister Liang, have you ever heard of marriage first and love later?"
Eh?!
Orleans When he heard this, his brain suddenly shut down, and then his pretty face became hot and red.
"Sister Yanran, what are you talking about? Is this... so possible?"
"It's impossible, it's impossible. Huxiao wants to marry me. Oh my God, how is this possible? I've become someone he hates. And, he... oh, how is this possible? He will definitely not agree. On the contrary, he might blame me even more. Sister Yanran, are you teasing me on purpose?"
"Is it possible that you don't want to think about it first? Just tell me whether you want to think about it first, right?"
Orleans suppressed his shyness and said, "Of course I think so, it would be great if it was really possible."
After receiving a positive reply, Xu Yanran smiled and raised the novel in his hand.
"Sister Liang, don't worry. Since you have this idea, then listen to me and tell you slowly in conjunction with my love book. I guarantee that your wishes will come true. Hehe, my cousin who only knows how to practice martial arts will never escape from your grasp!"
