Douluo: Soul Shadow King

After leaving the Tiandou Great Soul Arena, Cheng Xiao and Ye Lingling walked side by side on the bustling streets. The two slowed down their pace and strolled leisurely on the busy streets.

As the capital of the Tiandou Empire, Tiandou City is extremely popular. It was afternoon, but the streets were still crowded with people, and even some nobles could be seen heading to the Tiandou Soul Arena.

Perhaps with Cheng Xiao's company, Ye Lingling became much more lively after leaving the Great Soul Arena, at least not as cold as before.

When passing by some stalls, Ye Lingling would always recommend some delicious and fun things to Cheng Xiao, and the two were very happy.

The girl's light and charming laughter made the hot weather a little cooler.

"Cheng Xiao, thank you for being willing to accompany me today." Ye Lingling, who was walking in front, suddenly turned back, looked at the latter with bright eyes, and smiled.

"Aren't we friends?" Cheng Xiao smiled and said.

"Friends..." Ye Lingling was slightly startled, then smiled and said, "Since we are friends, then accompany me for a walk?"

Hearing this, Cheng Xiao nodded with a smile, and once again strolled with the girl in Tiandou City.

The two walked leisurely like this, and when they were tired, they just found a drink shop to sit down, drink cold drinks, and chat about some interesting things in life, which was also very happy.

Looking at the endless stream of people outside the window, Cheng Xiao was keenly aware of something, his eyes slightly shifted, relying on the corner of his eyes, an old man in white who was hiding in the crowd was staring at him intently.

Seemingly noticing Cheng Xiao's gaze, the old man in white turned around and disappeared in the crowd.

"Oh, it's him." Cheng Xiao retracted his sight. He knew the identity of the person who came, but in order to ensure Ye Lingling's safety, he still didn't plan to tell the other party about it.

"Lingling, I'm going to buy some snacks. You wait here for me." Cheng Xiao said, and then he stood up and left the beverage store.

"Huh?" Ye Lingling hadn't reacted yet. When she stood up and looked, Cheng Xiao's figure had disappeared.

For some reason, her eyelids twitched a little, and deep in her heart, she vaguely felt that something was going to happen.

After leaving the beverage store, Cheng Xiao directly chose a remote alley. When he entered the alley, two shadows rushed out of his shadow and got into the shadow blocked by the wall.

As expected, after walking in the alley for a long time, Cheng Xiao never walked out, as if the alley had no end.

"Now that you're here, why don't you come out?" Cheng Xiao paused, his eyes slightly fixed, and a low voice came out of his mouth, causing the air around him to ripple slightly.

As soon as the voice fell, the air around him suddenly became quiet, and the sounds that should have been on the street disappeared at this moment, and the whole world became quiet.

Then, an illusory figure appeared at the entrance of the alley and slowly became clearer.

"As expected of the strongest student of this session, his vigilance is extraordinary. Unfortunately, it's too late now."

The speaker was an old man in white. He was wearing a moon-white soul master robe, and the word Canghui was embroidered in the green ring on his shoulder.

Hearing the old man's voice, Cheng Xiao slowly turned around, staring at the old man quietly, and said lightly: "I don't seem to have any grudges with your Canghui Academy, right? You come to me like this, aren't you afraid of attracting death revenge?"

"Hahaha!" Hearing this, the old man laughed out loud, the sound was like coming from the underworld, and said: "We really don't have any grudges, but you still have to die."

"If you want to blame someone, blame your strength for being too strong, which hindered our Canghui Academy from winning the championship!"

"Now, as long as you are killed, and then the talented soul masters of other soul master academies are killed, who else can stop our Canghui Academy from winning the championship?"

"Oh? If you are so confident, you must be very powerful, right?" Cheng Xiao suddenly said.

"Haha, whether I am confident or not, whether I am powerful or not, you will know it later." A hint of coldness appeared at the corner of Shi Nian's mouth, and he said, "Boy, I have to say that your observation ability is really strong. This place, did you lure me here?" When saying this, Shi Nian also looked around deliberately.

"Yes, I did lure you here on purpose." Cheng Xiao smiled indifferently, and the shadow in his palm burst out, "If I don't find a remote place, how can I kill you?"

As soon as the voice fell, Cheng Xiao waved his palm, and dozens of shadows condensed into sword shapes, and then as he waved his hand, they shot towards Shi Nian violently.

But at the moment when the shadow sword pierced Shi Nian, the surrounding scene became hazy, and then, in Cheng Xiao's indifferent eyes, everything around became clear, and he was now in a wilderness.

And those shadow swords condensed by the power of shadows directly penetrated through Shi Nian's body, but the latter was not hurt at all.

"This is my illusion. Do you think you can kill me?" Shi Nian showed a ferocious smile and said sarcastically, "I admit that you are very strong, but I may not be your opponent in a real fight."

"Unfortunately, everything you see now is an illusion created by me. In my environment, let alone you, the Soul King, even people with higher soul power than me can't hurt me."

"Unless..."

"Unless what?" Cheng Xiao looked at Shi Nian with a hint of murderous intent.

Shi Nian did not answer Cheng Xiao's words, but his face became ferocious, and the light of his seventh soul ring rose sharply.

The next second, the surrounding scenery changed again, and Cheng Xiao was surprised to find that he was not in the previous grove, but in the room he had traveled through before.

In the dim room, the curtains were tightly drawn, not a trace of sunlight penetrated.

The study table in front of the window sill is filled with all kinds of books, no novels, no classics, just various exercise books, papers, and exercises.

"Cheng Xiao, how old are you!"

"You are already in your senior year of high school. Do you have to force me to study in order for you to study?"

"Look at Aunt Wang's son next door. Learn from others and stop playing with those shabby classmates. If you play with them, what future prospects can you have?"

"If you don't get into a good university, how will you get a good job in the future? Without a good job, how will you marry a good wife in the future? Do you just want to live your whole life in such a muddle?"

Cheng Xiao's expression remained calm as the harsh sarcastic voice reached his ears. He had heard such words many times since he was a child. No matter whether he got the first place in the school or not, he would never meet the requirements of his family. , as if his being alive was a mistake.

And sitting in front of the study table, it seems that I have long become a trash can for them to vent their dissatisfaction.

Immediately afterwards, the scene in front of him changed again.

The scene that appeared in front of Cheng Xiao made him slightly moved.

On a snowy winter night, a child with a scarf and a pale face was sitting on the threshold of a rural house. Unpleasant and harsh curses continued to be heard in the room, followed by the sound of breaking things. out.

Not long after, a woman in a down jacket who was cursing came out of the house. She glanced at the child sitting on the threshold with his head bowed. She was so angry that she stepped forward and grabbed the child's arm, pointed at her nose and cursed: " Didn’t I ask you to read and study? Why are you disobedient for just a moment?”

"I told you not to come to this lousy place, but if you insist on coming, you will be just like your father who died long ago, with no future!"

At this time, it was the New Year's Eve.

Looking at the angry woman, Cheng Xiao pursed her lips and clenched her hands.

The screen turned again, and the dazzling sunlight made it difficult to open one's eyes.

A middle-aged man who looked somewhat similar to Cheng Xiao walked up to him, or in other words, walked up to the child.

"Xiao Xiao, dad believes in you. If you don't study well now, it doesn't mean you won't study well in the future. Don't blame your mother, she just loves you too much."

After saying that, the middle-aged man touched the child's head and showed a smile that he thought was very cheerful, "How can I, as a father, not know what my son is like?"

Looking at the scene in front of him, the corners of Cheng Xiao's eyes were slightly moist, and he clenched his hands harder, his body trembling slightly uncontrollably, and a wave of extremely suppressed emotions made him breathless.

The next second, the picture in front of Cheng Xiao turned again.

Boom!

Huge thunder resounded through the sky, and the majestic heavy rain fell. On the streets with rushing traffic, the blood on the ground was washed away by the rain. The honking of cars was like a piercing wail, constantly resounding in Cheng Xiao's eyes. ear.

A child in school uniform was kneeling next to the man lying in a pool of blood, crying helplessly. Countless people holding umbrellas around him just watched this scene silently.

Cheng Xiao's eyes suddenly filled with a strange scarlet color. His fists were clenched, and the suppressed emotions in his heart made his breathing become heavier. His eyes were fixed on the man lying in a pool of blood in the rain, with blue veins on his forehead. rise.

The next moment, a roaring sound like an angry beast came out.

"Shi Nian! I fucked the mud horse!" (End of this chapter)
