"The master of the Martial Soul Main Hall, and the president of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Chamber of Commerce. Bing'er, given the situation, should we use a signal flare and call the Skywater City troops, our Shui Family, and the Skywater Academy instructors for help?"

Shui Yue'er, who was hiding by the entrance of the Prince's Residence, peeked outside and saw the situation. She immediately suggested it to her younger sister.

"Mm, Mom said before that if anyone from another faction tries to approach the Prince's Residence, we should use the signal flare immediately."

"Once I use the signal flare, we'll head straight back inside. Don't cause trouble for Uncle Yu. This is the safest place for now."

Hearing her usually unreliable sister finally make a reliable suggestion, Shui Bing'er nodded and prepared to take the signal flare from her Storage Soul Tool ring.

"Little Bing'er, there's no need to make such a big fuss over something so minor. Leave it to me."

Just as Shui Bing'er was about to take out the signal flare, Yun Duo's voice sounded behind her.

"Brother Yun Duo!" x2

Upon hearing Yun Duo's voice, the two sisters, Shui Yue'er and Shui Bing'er, abruptly turned around and saw him standing behind them.

"Mm. The two of you stay here and don't go out. I'll handle what's happening outside first."

"Mm-hmm, okay, Brother Yun Duo!" x2

After seeing the two little girls nod in agreement, Yun Duo headed straight outside the Prince's Residence.

At that moment, the situation outside grew increasingly tense.

Besides the master of the Martial Soul Main Hall and the president of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Chamber of Commerce, several groups from unknown factions were watching the residence like tigers eyeing prey. The air was thick with tension.

"Hmph, Yu Dabao, stop pinning things on Spirit Hall. Across the entire Douluo Continent, who doesn't know that Spirit Hall has always been eliminating Fallen Ones and preserving peace on the continent?"

"I came here today only because I noticed unusual fluctuations around the Prince's Residence and suspected traces of an evil soul master. I merely came to investigate."

Faced with Yu Dabao's accusation that he had openly attempted to assassinate a prince of the Heaven Dou Empire, Mark Xier immediately retorted.

Naturally, he had not truly come to investigate the so-called Fallen Ones in the Prince's Residence. He merely wanted to determine the truth behind the news that the Heaven Dou Empire's prince had awakened his Martial Soul, then report it to his superiors.

Having stayed in Skywater City for so many years, he naturally knew that today was the day Prince Yun of Skywater City awakened his Martial Soul.

Moreover, although Mark Xier was getting old, he was not blind. The two young girls who had appeared above the Prince's Residence earlier, along with the two massive clocks behind them, were very likely the legendary Twin Martial Souls.

Although he desperately wanted to enter the Prince's Residence and find out exactly what level of Innate Soul Power Prince Yun of the Heaven Dou Empire had awakened—

At the end of the day, Mark Xier was merely a Level-79 Soul Sage.

Against Yu Dabao, a veteran who had been to war, and the five hundred soul-master soldiers behind him, there was no way he could contend with them.

Not to mention Shui Yunxi, an Soul Douluo powerhouse who held multiple positions in Skywater City.

Thus, he could only use Spirit Hall to put pressure on Yu Dabao.

"Pah! What fucking nonsense! Are you accusing our Prince's Residence of sheltering Fallen Ones? Investigate, investigate, investigate—why the fuck don't you investigate the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Chamber of Commerce's residence instead?"

After hearing Mark Xier's words, Yu Dabao cursed at him without the slightest restraint.

"Uh... General Yu, what you're saying...! Our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Chamber of Commerce doesn't seem to have offended your Prince's Residence, does it?"

Faced with Yu Dabao's shamelessly unreasonable manner, a young woman who had been watching from nearby was left completely speechless by his retort.

That young woman was Ning Hudie, president of Skywater City's Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Chamber of Commerce. She came from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, one of the Three Upper Sects, and was a Level-75 Seven Treasure Glazed Tile support-system soul master.

Standing beside Ning Hudie was a taciturn middle-aged man. He was her husband and protector, Chen Jian, a Level-81 Soul Douluo.

Of course, one could tell from the name Chen Jian that his Martial Soul was naturally the Seven Kill Sword. Like Sword Douluo Chen Xin, he came from the Xili Stone Kingdom and was a younger member of Sword Douluo Chen Xin's Chen Family.

Don't be fooled by the original story, where Sword Douluo Chen Xin never married or had children. His father had been a Level-97 Titled Douluo powerhouse. In a small country like the Xili Stone Kingdom, he naturally possessed his own family power. With such a peak powerhouse overseeing it, it would have been difficult for the family not to prosper.

"Hehe, President Ning, Senior Chen, this is a misunderstanding. General Yu never went to school and is just a crude fellow. I hope you won't take it to heart."

At that moment, Yun Duo, who had arrived at the scene, took over Ning Hudie's words. Unless necessary, he did not want to fall out with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Chamber of Commerce.

Besides, if he wanted to develop Skywater City in the future, he would need the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's Chamber of Commerce, renowned for its immense wealth, as an early source of funding.

Yes, upon seeing Ning Hudie of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Chamber of Commerce, Yun Duo had already made a decision regarding Skywater City's future development.

Once he resolved the Jade Phosphor Serpent Poison in Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan, he would help Shui Yunxi quickly break through to Titled Douluo.

Then, he would recreate the items within the inherited memories in his mind, providing powerful support for Skywater City's economic development.

Whether it was the Soul Guidance Technology whose inheritance had already been lost, or rare pill formulas, as long as they were used properly, they could allow Skywater City to rapidly obtain massive amounts of wealth and resources in a short time.

With those resources, Skywater City could not only attract more independent soul masters to settle there, but also strengthen the foundation of his own family, as well as the power of the Shui Family, Skywater Academy, and the entire army.

Moreover, Yun Duo had not forgotten that in the near future, after Pope Bibi Dong won over several kingdoms within Heaven Dou and Star Luo Empire, she would announce the establishment of the Spirit Hall Empire in Spirit City.

Whether he wanted to destroy the Star Luo Empire and the Clear Sky Sect to avenge his parents, or protect himself in the continental war that would begin after Bibi Dong established the Spirit Hall Empire, he would need strength and an army to support him.

Naturally, Yun Duo had not forgotten Tang Xiaosan, a key figure of the Douluo Continent. With Tang Hao's personality as a sect slave, he would definitely stand against Yun Duo in the end. That meant Tang Xiaosan would become Yun Duo's enemy as well.
