Douluo Jueshi: Who let him join Shrek!

Chapter 454: The prince wants to see me?
"I heard Mr. Kong say that your boy has made great progress!"

Jing Hongchen held a rather mechanical teacup in his hand that was actually porcelain. After briefly tasting the tea inside, he looked at Ming Jiang who was sitting on the sofa opposite and said softly.

Ming Jiang smiled and waved his hand, and said modestly: "No, no, this is all due to the good teaching from Mr. Kong and the recommendation from you, the hall master, otherwise how could I have made such great progress."

With that said, Ming Jiang stood up from the sofa, took out a gold card, and placed it on the table in front of Jing Hongchen.

"This is?"

Jing Hongchen glanced at the gold card and frowned slightly.

Ming Jiang said softly: "During the auction, didn't I borrow some gold soul coins from the hall master? It's been two years, and I just have some spare money on hand. I want to pay back the gold soul coins I owe you to the hall master. ”

Originally, Mingjiang wanted to repay the money after the last auction, but at that time he was busy studying the core array of the ninth-level soul guide given by Kong Deming, and also had to deal with the aristocratic forces in Mingdu and the Holy Spirit. I was so busy fighting against the arresting forces of Mingdetang that I forgot about it.

But now, after those things came to an end, he remembered this incident.

"Take it away."

Jing Hongchen looked unhappy.

"I still need some gold soul coins from you, right?"

When he lent the money, Jing Hongchen never thought about getting the money back from Ming Jiang.

After all, we are all a family from now on!
Ming Jiang shook his head and said with a serious face: "Hall Master, you are definitely not short of such a few gold soul coins, but I can't accept it with peace of mind just because you are not short. As the saying goes, if you borrow something, you must pay it back. It’s not difficult to borrow again. I might have trouble with the Hall Master in the future. Hall Master, you’d better accept the money.”

Hearing this, Jing Hongchen raised his head and glanced at Ming Jiang. Seeing Ming Jiang's serious look, he reluctantly nodded and put the gold card into his storage soul guide.

If not for the fact that the outside world can train people, Ming Jiang didn't know anything about worldliness before.

But now, you still need to understand a little bit.

"I will accept the money, but you are also at a critical period for promotion to the ninth level soul engineer. If you are short of money, just tell me."

Jing Hongchen reminded.

The profession of soul mentor is a profession that has a strong ability to make money, but an equally terrible ability to spend money!

A high-end soul tool can easily cost several million gold soul coins. But when a soul master buys those rare metals, especially rare metals that can make eighth-level or ninth-level soul guides, he is throwing away a lot of money.

After all, no soul engineer can say that he has a 100% success rate when making soul guides. There is always some probability of failure. If it fails, it will waste more than just a little money.

After hearing Jing Hongchen's words, Ming Jiang nodded and agreed, but he had no intention of borrowing money from Jing Hongchen anymore.

why?
He is about to be promoted to a ninth-level soul master. By then, the character Ming Jiang will have evaporated. Naturally, he will not be able to borrow money from Jing Hongchen.

Ming Jiang chatted with Jing Hongchen in Jing Hongchen's office for a while. When Ming Jiang was about to get up and leave, Jing Hongchen suddenly said: "Ming Jiang, if you have nothing to do recently, please don't leave Mingde Hall."

Ming Jiang was shocked.

Could it be that Jing Hongchen discovered something?
"The guy who snatched the 100,000-year-old soul beast embryo from our Mingde Hall in the past six months has appeared again. He has robbed nearly a hundred soul masters. The law enforcement team in Mingdu has not caught him yet. After catching him Before, it was dangerous out there.”

Speaking of this, Jing Hongchen's face was filled with sadness.

The Royal Law Enforcement Team, Mingdetang, and Holy Spirit Cult, these three parties together, can really rummage through the entire city from light to dark, from outside to inside, but they just can't catch this person. Guy!

However, both the royal family and the Holy Spirit Cult attach great importance to this strong man with super spatial abilities!
The royal family needs to catch him and ask him where the three level nine fixed-installed soul-guided artillery shells came from. The people from the Holy Spirit Cult want to torture him and ask him where he has arrested all the people. You know, among the missing people from the Holy Spirit Cult, there are even some There is a Titled Douluo, an elder at the level of a ninth-level soul master!

As for the theft of the treasure troves of the nobles in the Ming capital, it was relatively no big deal.

"Not caught yet?"

Ming Jiang frowned suddenly, and his eyes were full of solemnity.

"What kind of extraordinary ability does this guy have that he can hide for so long?"

Jing Hongchen rubbed his head and said with a headache: "This guy is very accomplished in space, and his cultivation is at least above that of a Super Douluo! Even if an ordinary soul master encounters him, he can't catch him at all. And there are I'm really surprised that I can't catch this guy. It was relatively normal to snatch 100,000-year-old embryos in Mingde Hall, but now this guy can't even capture the treasure troves of nobles like Mingdu. Robbing, even robbing people, this kind of style really doesn’t cost the former a super Douluo any face!”

Ming Jiang nodded and said solemnly: "Indeed, this Super Douluo is so shameless!"

Scolding this super Douluo, Ming Jiang felt no emotion in his heart.

Those who steal things and rob people are Super Douluo. What does it have to do with me, a Contra?

"Okay, you don't have to worry about this matter. Just don't go out during this period. When he shows up again next time, someone will take care of him, and then you don't have to worry."

Jing Hongchen said in a deep voice.

"Well, I see."

Ming Jiang nodded, indicating that he understood, but he was thinking about it in his heart.

Someone will deal with him?

Jing Hongchen seemed very confident when he said this!

However, the strength he showed was that of a super Douluo with powerful spatial abilities!

To put it bluntly, even if Mr. Xuan takes action, he may not be able to catch a space-type super Douluo.

A strong man of the same level wants to arrest someone, unless he is restrained by a martial spirit!
But to be able to restrain space-type abilities, one must be a Super Douluo, and there are not many in the entire Douluo Continent.

Could it be that Kong Deming took action himself? Or will there be a leader-level figure from the Holy Spirit Church?

Based on Ming Jiang's knowledge in Mingdu in the past few years, the only space-type titled Douluo who wants to steadily suppress the cultivation of Super Douluo is these two people.

It seems that I can't show my face recently.
Ming Jiang secretly decided in his heart that even if the tool man assembly line in the small world lacked raw materials, he would not cause trouble. To avoid capsizing the boat in the river's wet shoes and gutter.

Thinking this, Ming Jiang planned to get up and leave.

After these few months of study, he was only one step away from being a ninth-level soul master. His ultimate goal of coming to Mingdu and working as an undercover agent in Mingde Hall was about to succeed.
It's just that the tree wants to be quiet but the wind doesn't stop.

When Ming Jiang just spent a month completing his first level nine soul tool, something happened.

"Mingjiang, the prince wants to see you."

Prince!

"Master, what does the prince want from me?"

Ming Jiang asked with some confusion.

Although he has stayed in Mingdu these years, he has basically only had contact with people from Mingdetang, and has never had any contact with people at the imperial prince level like the prince.

It was so unexpected that the prince suddenly wanted to see him. It was definitely impossible to say that nothing happened.

"You will know if you come with me."

Jing Hongchen didn't say anything more, but led Ming Jiang directly outside the laboratory.

Not long after, Ming Jiang came to a luxurious hotel. The corridor was filled with soldiers wearing strong armor. These soldiers were all dressed in silver armor and looked very mighty and majestic. At first glance, they were the Imperial Guards of the Sun and Moon Empire.

In addition to these silver-armored soldiers, there was also a group of soldiers wearing light armor. Most of them are over thirty years old, with a calm demeanor, standing among the imperial guards.

Soul mentor, fully armed soul mentor!

The armor on their bodies was clearly soul guide armor. The equipment on them all looks standard, but is extremely sophisticated.

In addition to these, Ming Jiang's mental power also keenly felt that there were several powerful aura feedbacks around him.

These auras are all at least powerful ones with title Douluo or above!
And according to the configuration of the powerful Titled Douluo in the Sun Moon Empire, a soul master who has reached the level of Titled Douluo is very likely to be a ninth-level soul master!

In other words, the prince was not only protected by the imperial guards and the soul master team, but also by several ninth-level soul masters.

This specification.
Ming Jiang's eyes were slightly focused, observing the surrounding environment, but the expression on his face did not change much.

With his current strength, unless Extreme Douluo intervenes to stop him, it would be unrealistic to capture him even with the size of the people around him.

After walking through the long corridor, the two came to the door of a room.

The captain of the Imperial Guard guarding the door was a strong man with Contra cultivation. He had a serious and square face. Even if he did not deliberately target him, he would unconsciously reveal a terrifying aura.

But after seeing Jing Hongchen and Ming Jiang coming, he opened the door respectfully.

Ever since Jing Hongchen was rescued by Prince Xu Tianran in the last incident at Mingde Hall, he has become the Prince's person and can be trusted.

"please!"

Entering the room, Ming Jiang immediately saw a figure sitting in a wheelchair by the window.

This is the first heir to the royal family of the Sun and Moon Empire, Xu Tianran!
As if feeling Ming Jiang's gaze, Xu Tianran turned his head slightly, looked at Ming Jiang, and stretched out his hand to say hello.

"Master, I."

Ming Jiang looked a little confused and looked at Jing Hongchen.

"It's okay, go ahead, His Royal Highness wants to talk to you."

After saying that, Jing Hongchen sat directly on the sofa in the room, closing his eyes slightly, like an old monk in meditation.

Seeing this, Ming Jiang nodded and walked towards the window.

"His Royal Highness!"

Ming Jiang bowed slightly as a salute.

"How dare you not kneel down when you see His Highness the Crown Prince!"

The captain of the Imperial Guard standing at the door shouted in a deep voice.

Ming Jiang glanced at the captain of the Imperial Guard, then turned to look at Xu Tianran in the wheelchair, and said in a deep voice:
"Your Highness, I don't like to kneel down and bow down."

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became a little solemn.

Generally speaking, if you are a citizen of the Sun and Moon Empire, even a soul master, when you see Xu Tianran, the crown prince of the Sun and Moon Empire, you must kneel down and bow down.

Unless you are a person with a particularly noble status and powerful strength, such as the master of Mingde Hall, or someone who is enshrined by the royal family, you are exempted from the need to kneel down and pay homage.

When Xu Tianran in the wheelchair heard Ming Jiang's words, his eyes narrowed slightly, but a warm smile appeared on his face.

"It's okay. If you don't like it, then there's no need."

In one sentence, he directly showed his magnanimity as a prince.

Hearing this, the captain of the Imperial Guard at the door didn't say anything more and continued to stand back.

By the window, Xu Tianran turned his head and looked through the window sill to the outside world.

His eyes were very calm, and you couldn't tell what he was thinking.

"Mingjiang, I heard that you were a student of Shrek Academy's inner court before?"

Ming Jiang nodded and replied: "Yes, I used to be an inner disciple of the Soul Guidance Department of Shrek Academy."

There is no shyness.

Xu Tianran smiled slightly and said: "Then, which one do you think is better, Mingde Hall of Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy or Shrek Academy?"

Is this a test?
Ming Jiang secretly thought.

He didn't think much and answered directly: "If it's the training of soul masters, Shrek Academy is better. If it's the training of soul masters, there is a big difference between Shrek Academy and the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Master Academy."

This is a fact.

Xu Tianran nodded slightly, with the warm smile still on his face.

"Then where would you rather be?"

Hearing this, a self-deprecating smile flashed across Ming Jiang's lips: "Ming Jiang, you can't go back to Shrek Academy anymore, and there is no need to go back."

The corners of Xu Tianran's mouth curled up slightly, and the smile on his face became a little thicker.

He comforted him:

"Mingjiang, you don't have to be so heavy-handed. Shrek doesn't value you, but our Sun-Moon Empire values ​​you! With your talent, you will definitely shine in our Sun-Moon Empire!"

Ming Jiang bowed and said, "Thank you, Your Highness."

Xu Tianran waved his hand and said: "Actually, you and I don't have to be so restrained. Hall Master Jing Hongchen said that you are a young hero and may become the youngest ninth-level soul master in the history of soul masters. I am really looking forward to it."

Hearing this, Ming Jiang couldn't help but glance at Jing Hongchen behind him.

So, it was Jing Hongchen who recommended him to Xu Tianran?
Ming Jiang and Xu Tianran didn't chat for long, but left after less than half an hour.

During this period, Xu Tianran basically controlled the pace of speaking, and Mingjiang mostly echoed Xu Tianran's topics.

But what made Ming Jiang a little strange was that Xu Tianran met with him specifically and all they talked about was trivial matters in life and complimented his talent, but there was nothing substantial about it.

Jing Hongchen did not come out with Ming Jiang, but stayed in that room.

"What do you think of Mingjiang, His Royal Highness?"

Jing Hongchen stood up, walked behind Xu Tianran, and asked softly.

Xu Tianran said slowly:
"His talent is really strong, which makes me a little jealous."

"But if you can master this kind of genius, your future plans will be much smoother."
