Douluo: Make a gun first

Chapter 92: Returning Home, the Abnormality of Xingdou Border Town
Three days later, near noon, a large carriage with four horses slowly drove out of the Tiandou city gate. The driver was Shen Feng.

When they came, there were only Shen Feng and Dugu Bo. They had to sleep in the open air and travel on foot.

But when going back, Ye Lingling, who Shen Feng had abducted from the Royal Fighting Team, was added, so naturally a carriage was needed to make it more convenient for them to travel and rest.

As for why they left the city so late, it was naturally because of the sadness of parting and the desperate attempts of the Royal Fighting Team to keep them.

After all, Shen Feng's act of kidnapping Ye Lingling actually broke up a perfect team that worked well together.

Dugu Bo was accompanying him, naturally to help Shen Feng hunt down soul rings that were more than 50,000 years old to provide escort.

Time flies, and two months have passed in the blink of an eye.

There is nothing interesting about traveling for a long time. Apart from making people feel a little tired, Shen Feng and Ye Lingling seem to have become closer after two months of daily interactions.

The sound of horse hooves clattering was endless, and as we got closer to the Soul Hunting Town, even the air became fresher.

Fourteen months away from home, more than a year, looking at the increasingly familiar scenery, Shen Feng's heart was moved and he couldn't help but speed up the speed of swinging the whip.

Of course, this also has something to do with the fact that Ye Lingling’s cooking is really delicious.

Shen Feng grinned and said, "I'm almost home, I'm a little anxious."

"You young people should make the decision. There is no need to ask me." Dugu Bo's voice was deep, and he looked like a master.

When Shen Feng went to Tiandou City a year ago, the population of Xingdou Border Town was about 50,000, but there were only more than 100 soul masters, with a ratio of nearly 500 to 1 to ordinary people.

Especially since the establishment of the Soul Hunting Town, it has attracted a large number of soul masters to live here.

As if sensing its master's eagerness to return home (the whip hurt), the horse took big strides and ran faster.

"Xiao Feng, what happened? Why did it suddenly speed up?"

Turning the horse around, Shen Feng changed the direction and drove the carriage towards Xingdou Border Town.

"Drive~"

Shen Feng suddenly realized that it was the girl who was concerned about her image. He then smiled and shouted to another passenger in the car, "Old man, how about we go to Xingdou Border Town to rest for a night and then return to Soul Hunter Town tomorrow?"

The Soul Hunting Town is home to more than 500 soul masters, which is about five times the number of Xingdou Border Town.

Ye Lingling rolled her eyes at him and said, "We've been traveling for so long and are so exhausted. You don't mind it, but what about me?"

In a short while, the carriage entered the Xingdou Border Town. As soon as he entered the city, Shen Feng immediately felt something was wrong.

Although Shen Feng was confused, he still tightened the reins and stopped the speeding carriage.

Feeling that the carriage suddenly accelerated, Ye Lingling also stuck her head out of the window connecting the carriage to the driver's seat.

Although the number of soul masters in Xingdou Border Town is denser than in other cities because it is close to the Xingdou Great Forest, it is still far from the level of 100 to 1 that of ordinary people.

Ye Lingling turned around and said with a smile: "Thank you very much for your understanding, old man. When we get to the city, I will cook a big meal for you myself."

"what happened?"

It seems that every excellent assistant has good cooking skills. Dugu Bo's eyes lit up when he heard Ye Lingling's words. He nodded lightly, then closed his eyes and said no more.

Ye Lingling was stunned for a moment, and quickly shouted: "Wait, wait, stop first."

Shen Feng smiled bitterly and shook his head. Dugu Bo always seemed to have an extraordinary tolerance for girls. This was true for Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling as well.

And now, since entering the city, Shen Feng has discovered that the ratio of soul masters to ordinary people here is extremely abnormal, even exceeding one hundred to one.

This means that in just over a year, the number of soul masters in Xingdou Border Town has increased fivefold.

If calculated at this ratio, the number of soul masters in Soul Hunting Town is likely to have exceeded two thousand.

Thinking of this, Shen Feng frowned and his scalp felt tingling.

You should know that the Haotian Sect, one of the top three of the seven major sects in the soul master world and recognized as the strongest, had only ten thousand soul masters at its peak.

The Seven Treasures Glazed Sect, which ranked second, had no more than 6,000 soul masters to date. The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Sect, which ranked third, had only 1,800 direct members, and with a few vassal families, the total number of soul masters did not exceed 3,000.

As for the lower four of the seven major sects, there will be even fewer soul masters in the sects.

Nowadays, a small soul hunting town has gathered more than two thousand soul masters, which is obviously abnormal.

If the combat power of Dugu Bo, the Titled Douluo, is taken into consideration, then the Soul Hunting Town at this moment is not weaker than any of the lower four of the seven major sects.

For the Soul Hunting Town, which had only been developed for three years, something was very wrong. It was extremely wrong.

"Did you find it too?"

Dugu Bo's voice quietly sounded in Shen Feng's mind.

Shen Feng nodded slightly.

Dugu Bo continued to send a message: "Don't worry about it, find a place to stay first, I'm here, nothing can happen."

Shen Feng nodded again, and then drove the carriage forward as if nothing had happened.

Soon, Shen Feng and others found a place to stay. Ye Lingling agreed and ran to prepare food, while Shen Feng and Dugu Bo stayed in the room.

"Old man, have you also noticed that something is wrong here?"

Dugu Bo nodded gently: "The border of the Xingdou Great Forest is extremely long, so every city adjacent to the Xingdou Great Forest can become a gathering place for soul masters."

"In this way, the soul masters will be dispersed, and the number of soul masters in each city will not be too many. Generally, the ratio of soul masters to ordinary people will reach 100 to 1, which is already the limit."

"However, the number of soul masters in Xingdou Border Town can still reach this ratio under the influence of Soul Hunting Town. This is really abnormal."

Shen Feng frowned slightly: "Not only that, I also found that many people are wearing the badges of the Soul Hunter Union, and most of them are unfamiliar faces."

"I doubt."

Dugu Bo snorted coldly: "There is no doubt that the Soul Hunter Guild has developed too quickly and its structure is too loose. It is impossible to avoid the infiltration of other soul master forces."

"But with so many soul masters gathered here at the same time, I'm afraid some soul master forces can't help themselves and are planning to attack the Soul Hunter Guild."

"But don't worry, as long as I'm here, no monsters or demons can cause any trouble."

As he spoke, Dugu Bo slapped the table beside him, and the table instantly turned into powder.

After his martial soul evolved into a poisonous dragon, Dugu Bo's strength increased every day.

Although he is only level 93 now, his healthy body and higher quality martial spirit allow him to fight even against a level 95 Titled Douluo.

If anyone still regards him as the Poison Douluo from a year ago, then the wrong information will definitely make the other party pay a bloody price.

Seeing such a domineering Dugu Bo, Shen Feng chuckled and said, "Old man, what I'm worried about is not the opponent's blatant attack."

"I'm worried that the other party might use a blunt knife to cut the flesh."

"If all the members of our Soul Hunter Guild come from other forces, then do you think that the Soul Hunter Guild is still our Soul Hunter Guild?"

"This..." Dugu Bo frowned, and for a moment he was at a loss.

At this moment, the door of the room was suddenly pushed open, and Ye Lingling walked in with steaming food.

"Xiao Feng, Grandpa, what are you discussing? The meal is ready, you can eat now."

"Huh? Where's the table?"

Shen Feng shook his head with a wry smile, took out a simple folding table for outdoor dining from his soul guide, spread it out, then took the food from Ye Lingling and placed it on the table one by one.

"Don't think too much, old man. Any problem can be solved by simply dealing with it as it comes."

"Let's eat first. After we return to Soul Hunter Town and gather more information, we can make a long-term plan."
