Chapter 14 Human hearts may be deceived, but the Way of Heaven remains unchanged.
Night has fallen, and the moonlight falls like water, shrouded in a hazy glow.
At this moment, many soul-guided lamps in Tiandou City had been lit, illuminating the dark road. The lamplight and moonlight intertwined, casting dappled shadows on the stone pavement, and a night breeze carried a touch of coolness.
Chen Yingwu used the Moral Mirror to adjust the surrounding light, thus concealing his figure.
The mirror surface shimmered with a faint light, and the surrounding light seemed to be manipulated, distorted, and folded by an invisible hand. Those nearby could only see a blurry image of light and shadow, but could not see what was inside it.
This morning, when he saw Wang Haibin's companion, he noticed something strange in his eyes, a hint of malice. Although the malice was faint, his senses were so sharp that it wasn't difficult for him to perceive it.
He took advantage of the short time he had to use the Mirror of Morality to deduce the evil spirit master, interrupted it, and after asking some questions, he found that the matter was indeed as described.
"Wu Kunjun..."
Chen Yingwu had long had an idea for this name, which he had obtained from the Mirror of Morality, in mind.
"The strength of a one-word battle armor master is already quite formidable across the entire continent."
No wonder they came from Shrek Academy, right?
Each student's skill level is quite impressive, even compared to the older generation.
Especially since this guy is a student of the inner academy, he's even more extraordinary.
Chen Yingwu moved forward slowly, without making a sound. His steps were as light as a cat's, his breathing long and even, and he avoided making any noise with each step.
He was extremely patient in dealing with enemies.
Before long, a building bearing the five large characters "Tian Dou Grand Hotel" appeared before him. The five characters gleamed with a golden light in the night, exuding grandeur.
This is the hotel where the Soul Master named Wu Kunjun stayed.
This place is considered the best hotel in Tiandou City. It is not only extremely luxurious, but also very safe, with a Soul Douluo protecting it year-round.
As for becoming a Title Douluo, that's impossible.
Even now, a Title Douluo is still a powerful figure. It's estimated that only Shrek Academy has the ability to appoint a Title Douluo as the head of security.
Chen Yingwu glanced at the hotel; there were numerous rooms and a maze of winding corridors. For an ordinary person, finding his specific room would be quite a task, but he was different.
He lowered his breath and, in the distorted light, leaped inside silently.
Ordinary Soul Masters cannot sense his movements at all.
This was something he had planned.
The Moral Mirror told him that at this time, high-level Soul Masters rarely come out.
After arriving at the hotel, he did not touch anything in the hotel.
He didn't want to do anything that would cause unnecessary trouble.
Having calculated the time in his mind, he looked up, his gaze seemingly piercing through layers of barriers, and saw the room where Wu Kunjun was.
Following the known route, he quickly found the target room.
Room number: 444
Looking at the room before him, Chen Yingwu glanced up and his heart stirred slightly.
He then waited quietly to the side, as still as a stone or a tree, seemingly without making a sound. Even his heartbeat, breathing, and pulse were barely perceptible.
one two three four……
Time is up.
A waiter walked over from the side, carrying some food and drinks that looked quite nice.
The waiter knocked lightly on the room door.
A moment later, the door was kicked open with a loud bang.
"Get out!"
Wu Kunjun, dressed in loose clothing, looked like he had just woken up. He shook his hand and told the waiter to leave.
This is the moment.
Taking advantage of the waiter leaving and the door not yet closing, Chen Yingwu dug his toes into the ground, straightened his knees, tensed his thighs, and suddenly exerted force, leaping into the room like a shifting shadow.
Then, with another roll, he landed on the floor below the bed.
Wu Kunjun only felt that his vision seemed to flicker, but he thought it was just his imagination.
In reality, Chen Yingwu used the Dao Intercepting One Line technique to disrupt this brief moment of thought.
Since it wasn't a big deal, Wu Kunjun forgot about it immediately and started eating and drinking heartily.
Without using his soul power to digest the alcohol, he became somewhat drowsy after drinking a few bottles.
The room was very private, protected by a soul-guided array and soundproof, so he felt at ease.
"Xiuer, I'm so sorry..."
Perhaps he was out of his mind, or perhaps he wanted to vent, Wu Kunjun started speaking rather loudly.
Chen Yingwu, sitting under the bed, showed no expression and simply listened quietly.
"Waaaaah..."
A faint sob escaped his lips, which then grew louder.
"Xiuer, it's all that evil spirit master's fault, otherwise you wouldn't have died!"
As Wu Kunjun spoke, he clenched his fingers, and a thin line of blood slowly appeared, dripping with scarlet blood.
The roar sounded powerful, but for Chen Yingwu, it was not necessarily moving.
After pounding his chest, Wu Kunjun looked distressed and murmured softly:
"Xiuer, please don't blame me. I really want to live. Although you are dead, I have lived on."
"This is already the best possible outcome, isn't it?"
"After all, you wouldn't want me to die..."
Then he slowly uttered the words.
On that day, Wu Kunjun and his girlfriend Qiu Xiu went to investigate a place in Tiandou City where evil soul masters were suspected to have appeared.
It turned out he really was an evil spirit master, and an eight-ring Soul Douluo at that.
He and Qiu Xiu were both only Soul Kings and One-Word Battle Armor Masters, their combat strength was equivalent to that of a Soul Saint.
What is the concept of an Eighth Ring Evil Soul Master?
That is an extremely powerful existence among the eight-ring Soul Douluo.
Why are evil spirit masters so powerful? It's because their methods are incredibly bizarre, and ordinary methods are rarely effective against them.
Ten thousand years ago, a Super Douluo from Shrek Academy, nearing his peak, was defeated by an evil soul master of a much lower level. Almost all of his inner court disciples were wiped out.
This incident shocked the entire Sea God Pavilion. In the 20,000 years that Shrek Academy had lived, they had only ever seen such an incredible thing among evil soul masters.
This matter is recorded in the inner court's archives. In those archives, the evil soul master was described as having extraordinary talent, capable of defeating soul masters far superior to himself, but for some unknown reason, he suddenly disappeared without a trace.
In other files, evil spirit masters are also considered extremely troublesome.
Wu Kunjun had previously read many records about evil spirit masters out of curiosity.
When he encountered this eight-ringed evil soul master, regardless of whether the other party had battle armor or not, he had only one thought: to run.
The moment that evil spirit master revealed his eighth-ring cultivation, he immediately shielded Qiu Xiu in front of him, but it only delayed her for a moment. If Wang Haibin hadn't arrived in time, he would have died on the spot.
He hates it!
"That blacksmith is definitely suspicious; he might even be connected to that evil spirit master. Xiuer, in a few days, I'll bring him here, cripple him to vent your anger, and then interrogate him carefully."
Thinking of that scene made him feel much better, and a sinister smile flashed across his lips.
A wild soul sect member from the outside world, he can't beat an evil soul master, but he can't beat you?
Moreover, he cannot be innocent; we must beat him until he admits to his connection with the evil spirit master.
In Wu Kunjun's mind, if the blacksmith could make him feel better, then he could be considered to have some value.
"In a few days, I'll teach you a lesson..."
Once the goal was set, Wu Kunjun's eyes lit up, and his brows immediately relaxed.
click!
Wu Kunjun suddenly felt that he couldn't move. It was as if his whole body was bound by something invisible, and he couldn't exert any strength at all.
Just as he was about to summon his battle armor, he almost fainted from his own stupidity. The one-word battle armor cannot be summoned by the body itself; it can only be put on manually.
"Who are you? Do you know I'm from Shrek Academy?"
Wu Kunjun looked terrified.
"You were looking for me..."
A figure appeared out of nowhere and suddenly came into his sight.
Immediately afterwards, a detached voice rang out:
"Now, I'm here!"
