The Worship Hall's Douluo Turned Out in Full Force! (1 / 2)

"There's no need for me to show myself. This is Spirit Hall's territory, after all!"

"Besides, if I showed myself, wouldn't Spirit Hall hunt me down across the entire continent?"

Li Tianyuan's voice was indifferent as he replied, but he remained calm.

He had not let injuring Qian Daoliu go to his head.

By keeping his identity hidden, he could still travel freely across the Douluo Continent in the future.

Once he exposed his identity, however, Spirit Hall's forces would surely watch and guard against him wherever he went.

"Hmph, you cowardly rat! If you've got the guts, come out and fight me!"

Demon Subduing Douluo flew into a rage, gripping his Coiling Dragon Staff as he bellowed.

"Don't be so impatient, Demon Subduing Douluo. Sooner or later, I'll make sure you die by my hand."

Li Tianyuan was equally blunt, his tone laced with murderous intent.

This old bastard had tried to kill him more than once. Now that they had truly made enemies of each other, he would strike to kill as soon as the time was ripe.

"You rat! Why wait until later?"

Demon Subduing Douluo roared and stepped forward, ready to attack again.

"Jiang Mo, don't let your guard down. Be wary of him goading you."

Qian Daoliu stopped him. The person behind all this was shrouded in mystery; the slightest carelessness could leave them vulnerable to a sneak attack.

"Big Brother, this rat is practically trampling all over us! Are we just going to let this go?"

Demon Subduing Douluo was reluctant to back down.

"Listen to me. This isn't a matter where you can play the hero."

"I was careless just now and fell victim to his sneak attack. That's why I can't use my Martial Soul's power."

"This man is deeply calculating. Do you want to fall into the same trap?"

Qian Daoliu reprimanded him sternly.

"Well... yes, Big Brother!"

Demon Subduing Douluo was no fool either. He took a step back, returning to his original position.

Naturally, he had no desire to fall victim to Li Tianyuan's sneak attack and die on the spot.

"Who exactly are you, sir? What is your purpose in coming to Spirit City?"

Qian Daoliu looked around, his expression cold as he questioned him.

He urgently needed to know what hidden agenda Li Tianyuan had.

"There wasn't really anything in particular. But who told your Spirit Hall people to stick their noses into other people's business?"

"And you, Qian Daoliu, you old bastard—you wanted to kill me, didn't you?"

Li Tianyuan sounded deeply displeased.

If those old bastards from the Worship Hall had not interfered in his affairs, he would have left long ago.

"Hmph! I was merely concerned for Spirit City's safety!"

Qian Daoliu spoke with righteous conviction.

"Bullshit! You really are a shameless old bastard!"

Li Tianyuan almost laughed in anger. The old fellow made it sound so perfectly justified, when he was nothing but a conniving old prick.

"How dare you!"

Azure Luan Douluo roared upon hearing those words.

"What, Azure Luan Douluo? You've already lost to me, and you still want another fight?"

Li Tianyuan mocked him.

"You rat! Stop spouting such arrogant nonsense!"

Azure Luan Douluo's anger blazed three feet high. Hearing himself called a defeated opponent was more than he could bear.

"Enough."

Qian Daoliu reprimanded him again, and Azure Luan Douluo swallowed his anger without another word.

"Sir, since you refuse to explain your purpose here, I won't press you further. But let me tell you this: even if I am injured, don't think you can swagger around Spirit City flaunting your might!"

"With every Douluo in the Worship Hall deployed, you would still be no match for us!"

Qian Daoliu's tone carried a threat.

"Hahaha... Qian Daoliu, there's no need for threats. I won't swagger around Spirit City flaunting my might. Of course, even if every Douluo in the Worship Hall came out, I could still escape without any trouble whenever I wanted!"

"You can't keep me here!"

Li Tianyuan showed no fear. After their battle just now, he was certain that even if the remaining Douluo of the Worship Hall appeared, he could still escape Spirit City with ease.

"Arrogant!"

Qian Jun Douluo was provoked as well and snorted angrily.

Every Douluo in the Worship Hall was at least level 96. This fellow thought far too highly of himself.

"Then put it to the test!"

Just then, several figures charged over from the direction of Spirit Hall, each radiating a powerful aura.

In the blink of an eye, they arrived before Qian Daoliu. Leading them was a tall, imposing old man dressed in dark-gold worship robes embroidered with a ferocious great crocodile.

He bowed to Qian Daoliu. "Big Brother, are you all right?"

"I'm fine!"

Qian Daoliu looked at the Douluo and waved a hand lightly.

"There was no need for you to come down."

"This man may be mysterious, but his attacks aren't powerful!"

Qian Daoliu said.

"He speaks far too arrogantly! He actually dares to scorn our Worship Hall. The fool has no idea whether he's courting life or death!"

"Big Brother, leave him to me!"

At those words, the man's face filled with anger. He swept his gaze around and spoke with wild arrogance, an abyss-deep aura erupting from his body.

"Who are you?"

Facing the gathered Douluo, Li Tianyuan did not back down. His voice remained calm as he asked.

"I am Golden Crocodile Douluo, level 98!"

"Do you dare fight me?"

Golden Crocodile Douluo's eyes blazed like torches as he looked around, ferocity in his gaze.

"No time."

Li Tianyuan's languid voice rang out. His earlier battle with Qian Daoliu and the others had taken a considerable toll, and there was no need to fight again.

His opponent was a level-98 Douluo, after all. Fighting him would only mean more trouble.

"You rat! You're scared!"

Demon Subduing Douluo laughed wildly at his reply.

"I'm not scared. You're simply ganging up on me."

"Enough. I have no time to play with you. I'm leaving."

Li Tianyuan did not want to linger here. Almost every Douluo in the Worship Hall had turned out in force, and he was not foolish enough to fight them to the death.

There was nothing here he felt particularly attached to anyway. Turning and stepping through the air, he used Wind God Leg to race toward the outskirts of Spirit City.

"He ran?"

Demon Subduing Douluo widened his eyes and looked around, but he could not spot any unusual movement at all.

"He probably left. I sensed a mysterious presence departing. It seemed to be heading out of Spirit City?"

Golden Crocodile Douluo spoke gravely.

He had only sensed a faint trace of an aura, so he could not be certain.

"He has indeed left. Never mind. Let's return to the Worship Hall and discuss our next steps!"

Qian Daoliu swept his gaze around. Golden light surged from his body once more, spreading out in an instant, but no ripples of golden light appeared in the surroundings.

That meant their opponent had already left.

"He's lucky he ran so fast!"

Although Demon Subduing Douluo remained unwilling to let it go, he did not dare pursue him.

The group of Douluo began swiftly making their way back toward Spirit Hall.

Halfway up the mountain, before the Pope's Hall.

Bibi Dong had been watching the activity below the whole time. When she saw that the mysterious Douluo had left, a hint of disappointment appeared on her face.

"The Worship Hall turned out in full force and forced him to flee."

"Hmph, those old bastards only know how to gang up on someone!"

Bibi Dong's tone was mocking.

"Your Holiness, that mysterious Douluo managed to force every Douluo in the Worship Hall to come out. That alone is enough to make his name resound throughout the world!"

Chrysanthemum Douluo spoke with some emotion, a hint of envy in his voice.

"Indeed. How wonderful would it be if a Douluo like that could serve me?"

A trace of regret showed in Bibi Dong's eyes as she spoke wistfully.

As they were speaking, Qian Daoliu and the others appeared near the Pope's Hall.
