Qi Ling was having dinner with Xiao Wu and Qian Renxue in the Star Dou Great Forest when he suddenly frowned slightly. He sensed a figure rushing towards him, and it was the panicked Hu Liena.
The three of them hurriedly went to greet her, and when Hu Liena saw Qi Ling, she panicked and wanted to say something, but she couldn't calmly explain the situation.
Finally, with Qian Renxue's comforting words, Hu Liena regained her composure and told Qi Ling about how she and Tang San had been captured.
Qi Ling was surprised to hear Hu Liena's words. Limit Douluo had actually appeared, and just one of the opponent's subordinates? How could this be? When did Limit Douluo become so worthless?
A figure like this could not possibly remain unknown and without any news ever surfacing, and certainly could not exist within the borders of the two great empires. So, where did this Cao Yang come from?
However, regardless of the circumstances, the other party's hostility was already quite obvious, and it was aimed directly at him, so he had to react, at least to rescue Tang San first.
So Qi Ling instructed Xiao Wu and Qian Renxue to take good care of Hu Liena, and then went to find her alone. Although he knew that this might be the result she wanted, acting alone would at least prevent her from taking advantage of him, and he could also act according to the situation.
Qi Ling is now certain that the feeling of being monitored she had earlier was not her imagination, but that someone was indeed observing her through some kind of tool, and of high quality, possibly even a divine artifact. After all, it's not easy to deceive someone's Spiritual Power.
However, now that there is concrete evidence, the feeling of being monitored has become clearer, which has also pointed Qi Ling in the right direction so that he can find Tang San as soon as possible.
Meanwhile, on Cao Yang's side, seeing Qi Ling rushing towards them, Cao Yang couldn't help but laugh smugly, "Hehe, it seems you're still very important to Qi Ling. After learning you were in trouble, he came alone without any preparation. Truly commendable courage!"
"But what about you, Tang San? Can you do the same, risking your life for your elder brother's safety?"
Tang San calmly replied, "You don't need to sow discord like this. Nana is safe now. If you try to threaten my brother with my life, I will absolutely not let you succeed."
"Hahaha, whether you succeed or not isn't up to you, Tang San," Cao Yang laughed loudly. "In this world, strength is everything! You should know that you may think you're strong enough, but in my eyes, you're no different from an insect!"
"And for someone as weak as you, sometimes even death is a luxury! Like this!"
As he spoke, Cao Yang suddenly stretched out his right hand, and a ball of red energy appeared in his hand, emitting a strange aura.
Then Cao Yang pressed his hand on Tang San's head, and the red energy entered Tang San's body. Tang San, who had been on guard, immediately changed his expression and looked pained after the energy entered his body.
"Hehehe, alright, now you can't even die. Moreover, your Soul Power, Soul Bone, Martial Soul, and all sorts of magical powers have been sealed by me. You'd better be a dutiful hostage!" Cao Yang said smugly.
Tang San, now completely incapacitated, was handed over to A Guduo by Cao Yang, who then said, "Hmm, with this hostage in hand, A Guduo, you should be able to handle Qi Ling, right?"
A Guduo respectfully replied, "Of course, my lord. He's just a Soul Douluo; he's not worth all this fuss. Even without this hostage, I can handle him myself."
"Haha, don't be careless, A Guduo. The fact that Qi Ling could Qian Xunji like that shows how powerful she is, far beyond your imagination!" Cao Yang said. "I'll leave this to you. I'll be right back."
Aguduo asked doubtfully, "My lord, where are you going? Do you need us to accompany you?"
"No need, didn't we just see them? There were two Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast over there, and both of them were top-tier Soul Beast!" Cao Yang said. "Perfect timing, it seems like two of us are about to break through to Level 90, right? Let's save these two Soul Ring for them."
"I see. I thank you on their behalf, Master," A Guduo said.
Cao Yang then left at an extremely fast speed, and in order not to attract Qi Ling's attention, he even deliberately chose another route to avoid Qi Ling.
Tang San watched Cao Yang leave, his heart filled with immense tension. However, his body was currently controlled by that strange power, rendering him completely unable to move an inch or utter a single word. All he could do was wait for Qi Ling to arrive.
The place where Cao Yang and the others were located was far from the center of the Star Dou Great Forest. By the time Qi Ling arrived, some time had already passed, and A Guduo and the others had already prepared to deal with Qi Ling.
The moment Qi Ling appeared, several figures scattered and surrounded Qi Ling from all sides, blocking his escape route and giving him no chance to flee.
Qi Ling looked at the people around her and silently calculated in her mind: two Super Douluo, five Titled Douluo, and several Soul Douluo. Their strength was comparable to that of the Divine Court.
Of course, we also have to add the Limit Douluo who appeared in front of him, holding Tang San hostage.
"Hehehe, welcome, welcome, Mr. Qi Ling! You've kept us waiting!" A Guduo laughed at Qi Ling. "We thought you were lost in the forest and were even planning to send someone to look for you."
"Enough nonsense, release my brother, and I'll spare your lives!" Qi Ling said Lingling. "I won't offer such generous terms a second time! If you regret it later, don't blame me for not giving you a chance!"
"Hahaha, how ridiculous! I've never seen such an arrogant person as you!" A Guduo couldn't help but laugh. "Since that's the case, then let's teach you a lesson first, and maybe you'll change your opinion of us."
Then, A Guduo waved her hand, and the two Super Douluo sprang into action, surrounding Qi Ling Qi Ling, clearly intending to teach her a lesson.
Qi Ling sized up the two of them. They were both obviously quite talented. One had Soul Power level of 96, and the other had Soul Power level of 95. What was even more remarkable was that they both had a 100,000-year Soul Ring as their Ninth Soul Ring.
The two clearly knew that although Qi Ling was only a Soul Douluo, he was definitely not someone to be trifled with. He was someone their master should take seriously, and if they didn't go all out from the start, they would probably end up in trouble.
Without holding back, they immediately unleashed their Ninth Soul Skill. Both of them were Power Attack System Soul Master, and both used swords as their Martial Soul, making them incredibly powerful.
