Chapter 142 Is there a possibility that you are too weak?_2

Qin Xiao pondered seriously upon hearing this before answering, "Is there a possibility that you are just too weak?"

"You..."

The Soul Douluo opened his mouth, completely at a loss for what to say.

More than twenty Soul Sages, seven Soul Douluo level powerhouses, do you call such a lineup weak?

Keep in mind, the Xingluo Empire had to exhaust all its resources just to assemble so many experts.

They even dispatched the emperor's personal trusted aides.

Yet, they were almost completely annihilated!

After this battle, the Xingluo Empire was undoubtedly severely weakened, and who knows how long it would take to recover.

"Cough cough, kid, don't be too arrogant, I'm not dead yet!"

At this moment, not far from Qin Xiao's side, someone struggled to get up.

It was none other than the leader known as the Fleet Admiral.

His face covered in blood and scars, even without a mask to cover his face, it was impossible to make out his features.

However, Qin Xiao saw a raging fury burning in his eyes.

"Hey, you're actually not dead?"

A trace of surprise flashed in Qin Xiao's eyes.

At those words, the Fleet Admiral's eyes filled with sorrow.

The reason he had survived was due to the sacrificial protection of two other Soul Douluo level experts.

"I, I'll fight you to the end!"

As he spoke, the Fleet Admiral mustered his last bit of energy and charged at Qin Xiao.

"You were no match for me just now, and you stand even less of a chance now."

Seeing this, Qin Xiao shook his head slightly and then threw a punch at the Fleet Admiral with his left hand.

Titan Cangqiong Cannon!

Boom.

The air seemed unable to bear the burden, rumbling ominously.

The next moment, a hole the size of a bowl appeared in the Fleet Admiral's chest.

"Fleet Admiral!"

The last remaining Soul Douluo level powerhouse let out a cry of despair.

The Fleet Admiral turned back slowly, his mouth opened, but before he could say a word, he slowly fell.

"Now it's your turn, release Er Long and I might choose to leave you a whole corpse."

"Or, I'll take action myself and you won't even have bones left."

Suddenly, Qin Xiao's light voice spread throughout the area and entered the Soul Douluo's ears.

"Ha, hahaha."

He laughed as if he had heard a joke, "After killing so many of us, you expect me to let her go?"

"It's not impossible, you end yourself. Trade your life for hers."

Madness spread across his face.

"Ah this..."

Qin Xiao was taken aback, appearing to be in a difficult position.

"Hmph, so you refuse?"

"How about this, let me show you a treasure," Qin Xiao said seriously to him.

Without a doubt, the man rejected Qin Xiao's proposition.

I freaking want your life, and you want to show me a treasure?

What a joke!

"To tell you the truth, I am a professional death soldier, no treasure can sway my heart. I only want your life, or his life," said the Soul Douluo beside Liu Erlong, his voice cold.

Liu Erlong was also secretly shaking his head at Qin Xiao, as if telling him, I'm not worth this, just kill him and avenge me.

But.

How could Qin Xiao's thoughts be swayed by others?

The next moment, soul rings began to emerge from beneath Qin Xiao's feet.

Red!

The first to appear was a red soul ring that left onlookers agape.

In the distance, the Soul Douluo was stunned.

His heart thumped violently in an instant.

But, the next moment, Qin Xiao's third soul ring suddenly lit up.

He had disappeared from the spot.

"Where did he go?"

The Soul Douluo was already dumbfounded.

"Stop looking, I'm right behind you."

Qin Xiao's voice echoed ghostly from behind him.

"You!"

He turned around abruptly, only to see Qin Xiao with a cold smile on his lips, looking at him indifferently.

"If I can't kill you, I'll kill Liu Erlong!"

With his mind set, he knew that at this point, killing one to break even was the only option.

The thought had barely registered when he began to exert force, ready to crush Liu Erlong's throat.

But to his horror, he found he couldn't apply any strength at all.

No.

More precisely,

he had lost all sensation in his arm.

He looked down to find that his arm had been...

severed.

What kind of speed was required to sever a Soul Douluo Strong Warrior's arm before he could react?

But that was his last thought.

A Thunder Hammer, falling from the sky, instantly crushed him to dust.

"It's over..."

Seeing this, Liu Erlong felt a wave of relief wash over her, followed immediately by a wave of exhaustion.

Luckily, Qin Xiao was quick to act, reaching out and wrapping his arms around Liu Erlong's slender waist. He gently pulled, allowing Liu Erlong's head to rest softly against his chest.

"Are you alright?"

"Is there anywhere that feels uncomfortable?"

Qin Xiao looked down at Liu Erlong in his arms and asked with concern.

"I'm fine, it's just some injuries from before...."

Liu Erlong said weakly, then as if remembering something, she quickly added, "Don't worry about me for now, the Assistant Soul Masters who were hiding out there have run away, you can't let them go."

"Otherwise, once they return to the Xingluo Empire, they will regroup and pose a threat to you again."

She was very anxious about this matter.

"It's okay, they won't get away."

Qin Xiao replied with a faint smile, full of confidence.

In fact, after the Thunder Titan's self-destruction, he had lost the sensation of those Assistant Soul Masters' presence, and he knew then that they must have retreated.

"Could it be, you've laid a trap with helpers?"

Liu Erlong guessed something.

Qin Xiao smiled slightly, then looked up in a certain direction, "He's here."

Liu Erlong followed his gaze and saw a green light appearing in the sky.

It didn't take long for it to arrive in front of Qin Xiao and Liu Erlong.

A Titled Douluo-level Expert!

Liu Erlong's pupils shrank, guessing the identity of the newcomer.

At that moment, Qin Xiao said, "Allow me to introduce you, this is Poison Douluo, Du Gu Bo."

Poison Douluo...

Liu Erlong wasn't too surprised; she had heard more or less about the relationship between Qin Xiao and Du Gu Bo.

She said, "I've had the honor, Your Highness."

Upon this, Du Gu Bo's eyes flashed, "You're injured."

As he spoke, he took out a pill, "Take this for now, it will temporarily stabilize your condition, and I'll treat you later."

However, Liu Erlong hesitated.

After all, Poison Douluo was notorious and rumored to be full of poison. Could something he offered be ingested so casually?

At that moment, Du Gu Bo's face turned green.

"Hahaha, Du Gu Bo, not to attack your character, but you really have a reputation, don't you," chuckled Qin Xiao, and then he reassured Liu Erlong, "Er Long, just eat it with confidence, it's fine."

"Okay."

Liu Erlong nodded and then turned to Du Gu Bo saying, "Then I thank Senior Du Gu."

After saying this, she took the pill from Du Gu Bo's hand and gently placed it into her mouth.

Her eyes brightened instantly.

Hmm, it was cool and minty, quite delicious indeed.

What was more miraculous was that in the space of about ten breaths, Liu Erlong felt much more at ease all over her body.

The Soul Power inside her began to flow smoothly once again.

She was even able to move freely on her own, without Qin Xiao's support.

"Thank you, Senior."

She expressed her gratitude to Du Gu Bo once more.

In response, Du Gu Bo didn't seem too pleased, "You don't need to thank me; we have no acquaintance. If it weren't for Qin Xiao finding me, I wouldn't have come. If you want to thank anyone, thank him."

Uh...

A look of astonishment flashed across Liu Erlong's face.

Qin Xiao simply smiled faintly in response.

It was very typical of Du Gu Bo's eccentric nature.

He was straightforward, if there were no ties, there was no need to forge them.

Qin Xiao replied cheerfully, "Then I thank you."

"Hmph, stop with the pleasantries, giving me a couple more acres of medicine fields would be much better," Du Gu Bo snorted.

However, this time Qin Xiao didn't continue to respond.

Asking for two acres of medicine fields right off the bat, what a joke!

"So, did anyone escape?" Qin Xiao asked again.

"Fail against some pure Assistant Soul Masters with almost zero combat capability? How could I?"

After hearing what Qin Xiao said, Du Gu Bo rolled his eyes dramatically and then took out from the Spatial Soul Guidance Device one after another...

Heads.
