158 Chapter 158: I seem to have learned something...

...

Looking at the figure that appeared, Zeng Yi breathed a sigh of relief.

But thinking about it, there shouldn't be any ghosts or monsters in this world, especially female ghosts.

The person in front of Zeng Yi, although dressed in black night clothes with her face covered by black cloth, only revealing her eyes, the tight-fitting clothes showcased her slender, graceful, and well-proportioned figure.

And the faint rouge fragrance carried by the wind, it wasn't difficult to judge that the person stopping him in front was a woman.

Could it be one of my female fans? Coming to intercept me in the middle of the night?

Zeng Yi couldn't help but think this way, considering his reputation in the Suotuo Great Spirit Arena and his handsome appearance, it was actually possible.

Ah, why am I thinking about this? Who would intercept their idol in the middle of the night? It's more like a robbery.

Looking at the person in front of him, Zeng Yi's expression instantly became sharp, his right hand quietly reached for the hilt of his Ronin sword at his waist, and suddenly, the surrounding air became heavy.

Zeng Yi could clearly feel that this woman in front of him was emitting an unfriendly aura towards him. Moreover, the pressure coming face to face also made Zeng Yi feel a heavy weight in his heart.

This woman is strong!

And this scene gave Zeng Yi a sense of familiarity.

More than two months ago, wasn't he almost in the same situation, being stopped and troubled by a group of people at almost the same time?

But this time, it's just one person?

Seems like she's very confident in her own strength! Little sister.

"Are you Zeng Yi?" The woman in black asked in a soft voice, her voice was pleasant and delightful, like a heavenly melody, with a seductive tone that irresistibly drew people in.

This enchanting voice made Zeng Yi's heart uncontrollably heat up, his gaze fixed on the woman in front of him, his eyes involuntarily becoming blurred.

Not good! It's charm!

Zeng Yi instantly came to his senses, biting his tongue to feel the stinging pain and regain his consciousness. He stared at the woman in front of him with heightened vigilance, pumping himself up mentally.

He had experienced this ability before, it was Xiao Wu's soul skill, Charm. But for him, with his highly developed spiritual power and willpower, it had no effect.

However, this woman made him fall into this charm just with a simple sentence. Although he was somewhat careless, it was enough to prove her formidable strength.

At least much stronger than that girl Xiao Wu.

"No, I think you've got the wrong person. My name is actually Tang San." Zeng Yi immediately denied with a shake of his head.

"Haha, it seems that you have mistaken me. I'll go home to sleep then, otherwise, my mother will worry," Zeng Yi laughed, turned around, and quickly left.

Seeing Zeng Yi's pretentious appearance, the woman in black's corner of the eye twitched. Her soul power surged, her feet lightly touched the ground, and she suddenly leaped forward, blocking Zeng Yi again.

"Do you think I'm stupid? Zeng Yi!" The woman in black's tone carried a hint of anger, a faint red soul power emitted from her body, filled with a peculiar allure. The surging soul power created a wave of pressure rushing towards Zeng Yi.

If it weren't for her investigation of the Suotuo City for a few days, she would have been played by him.

Not Zeng Yi? Still using his companion's name to conceal, truly shameless.

Does he really think I'm blind?

A powerful wave of energy hit them, along with a seductive fragrance, sweeping across Zeng Yi's face, his clothes fluttered, his long hair swayed, but he remained unchanged, his gaze intense as he locked onto this woman who wouldn't stop bothering him.

He couldn't sense the slightest intention to kill him from this woman. It seemed that she just wanted to cause trouble for him.

Did I recently provoke any woman? The only females I've been in contact with are the three female classmates from Shrek and Big Sister Kali.

Looking at this inexplicable woman, Zeng Yi felt puzzled.

[Name: Hu Liena.]

[Soul: Demon Fox.]

[Soul Power: Level 51 (Soul King).]

Who is Hu Liena? I don't seem to know her, right?

After looking at the information of this person in front of him, Zeng Yi furrowed his brows, even more confused. But the name does feel somewhat familiar, probably a character from the original story.

After careful consideration, Zeng Yi couldn't recall who this person was.

But if I can't even remember, she's probably just an insignificant supporting character with a few more appearances in the original story.

Level 51 Soul King, a Demon Fox soul, this strength is quite noteworthy.

Looking at this woman, Zeng Yi couldn't help but feel a hint of excitement. From her aura, it seemed that she was stronger than the Soul King he had killed previously.

"Zeng Yi, the unparalleled genius of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, the disciple of Sword Douluo, am I right?" Hu Liena stared at Zeng Yi with her eyes flickering with a strange, charming pink light, her tone carrying a hint of anger.

Upon hearing this, the black pupils of Zeng Yi contracted, his heart trembling.

How did she know I am currently Sword Douluo's disciple? Wasn't he secretly sneaking out to make me his disciple? There shouldn't be many people in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect who know about it, so why did the news leak out?

This person's background is not simple.

Looking at this woman named Hu Liena, Zeng Yi felt a heavy atmosphere. As he had guessed, Sword Douluo must have had some ulterior motives for accepting him as a disciple, a conspiracy.

Or perhaps, this person is actually from the Martial Soul Hall.

Zeng Yi understood clearly that it was because he casually mentioned himself being Sword Douluo's disciple in the Suotuo Martial Soul Hall that he ended up getting visited by Sword Douluo.

Combined with the previous pursuit by the Soul King, who were Martial Soul Hall people, Zeng Yi could be certain that he had become a target of the Martial Soul Hall.

Furthermore, the Martial Soul Hall had found the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect through this incident, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had learned about his existence because of it. Sword Douluo also came looking for him because of this.

And now, someone from the Martial Soul Hall had found him again.

Would the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect do some kind of deal with the Martial Soul Hall?

Combining the recent events, Zeng Yi connected them together and felt like his doubts in his mind were being answered.

With this realization, Zeng Yi suddenly felt enlightened, feeling that what had happened was not too different from his speculations.

This is too uncomfortable! I had been perfectly fine, and just because of a casual remark, things turned out like this? I feel like I'm nothing more than a marionette being controlled by the big shots.

Zeng Yi did not like this feeling at all.

Damn it! After this matter with Shrek ends, I'll run to a secluded place, live peacefully, and wait until I become a Title Douluo. Let's see who would dare to plot against me.

Zeng Yi cursed inwardly, his left hand supporting the scabbard of his Ronin sword, and his right hand tightly gripping the handle of the Ronin sword, adopting a combative posture while facing this woman.

Judging from her aura, it seemed that a battle tonight was inevitable.

"Let me see how strong you, the unparalleled genius of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, really are!" Hu Liena said coldly, a stronger surge of soul power overflowing from her body. A strange fox silhouette appeared in the empty space, roaring before fading away.

Hu Liena's own body also underwent changes. Two furry pointed ears grew on her head, a big fluffy tail appeared at the end of her spine, and her foxtail swished, stirring up a strong gust of wind and kicking up dust.

Her slender jade fingers flicked, and suddenly ten sharp claws extended, glinting with a cold light under the moonlight.

Five soul rings rose around her body, the dazzling soul rings revolved around her graceful figure in a rhythmic manner, emitting a brilliant radiance. The overwhelming aura made the space feel oppressive.

Seeing the five soul rings on her, Zeng Yi felt alarmed. Two yellow 100 year soul rings, two purple 1,000 year soul rings, and one flickering deep black soul ring. It was a configuration of the best possible soul rings!

This won't be easy to deal with!

Observing the colors of her soul rings, Zeng Yi's gaze grew even more solemn.
