Chapter 278 - Waiting for Long Xiaoyao, Forbidden Soul Arena

"Hehehe, there have been many Geniuses in history, but someone as prodigy as you is unheard of…" Mirror Hongchen smiled bitterly.

In his eyes, Laughing Hongchen's talent was already abnormal. He even felt that Laughing Hongchen would be among the top even among Shrek, a group full of prodigy.

But who could have imagined that a monster like Bai Zhou would appear in this world...

Of course, the resources required to cultivate Bai Zhou to this level must be extremely terrifying. He didn't believe that anyone could cultivate to this extent based solely on pure talent.

This also indirectly demonstrates that the power behind Bai Zhou is absolutely terrifying! Otherwise, it would be impossible to cultivate a Genius to this level!

"Alright, Mortal World, you're getting on in years. I still advise you to mind your own business. For Meng Hongchen's sake, I won't hold it against you."

Bai Zhou waved his hand, releasing Mirror Hongchen.

After Bai Zhou Holy Light's "treatment" has mostly healed Meng Hongchen's external injuries, but his internal injuries may still be there, and his psychological trauma is also quite severe...

This thing can't be cured by Bai Zhou.

"Thank you... Since I've lost, I admit defeat. No matter what your backing forces are up to, I won't interfere..."

Mirror Hongchen gave a wry smile, then looked at Bai Zhou and couldn't help but say, "As for your relationship with Xiao Meng, I won't stop you. I hope you treat her well..."

Putting everything else aside, Meng Hongchen following Bai Zhou could even be considered to be climbing the social ladder.

As long as Bai Zhou is a decent person, Meng Hongchen can not only live a happy life, but in the future, she might even be able to take the Hongchen Family to new heights...

With this thought in mind, Mirror Hongchen's mind started to race, and he felt that the beating he had taken today hadn't been in vain, at least it had brought him a little closer to Bai Zhou...

Ming Capital is likely in turmoil right now, so joining forces behind Bai Zhou might not be a bad idea...

It's much better than cooperating with those lousy Evil Soul Masters.

"Yes, I will treat her well, but you should keep a close eye on her during this time to prevent any accidents from happening." Bai Zhou nodded.

Although he was at the academy, he was aware of what had recently happened in Ming Capital, where many factions had been inexplicably wiped out, resulting in rivers of blood.

However, these things were suppressed and did not spread.

It's very chaotic outside right now, with all sorts of shady characters jumping out, most of whom actually come from other places to stir up trouble.

If Meng Hongchen went out and wandered around alone, he might actually encounter danger.

Thank you.

Although Mirror Hongchen's gaze was complicated, he still bowed slightly to Bai Zhou to express his gratitude.

On the one hand, he was grateful to Bai Zhou for sparing his life; on the other hand, he was also grateful to Bai Zhou for taking care of Meng Hongchen.

With chaos looming, the Hongchen Family may also face turmoil, but with a super prodigy like Bai Zhou protecting them, things are still quite comfortable.

...

...

While Mirror Hongchen returned to Ming Capital, Bai Zhou did not go back.

Judging by the timeline, the Holy Spirit Church should be planning something big soon...

Although he discovered many Holy Spirit Church followers within the city, he did not find any particularly powerful figures. Currently, the two Titled Douluo are stationed in Ming Capital: one is Tianwu Douluo Nangongwan, and the other is Masked Douluo.

Nangong Bowl is an attack system Spirit Master, Masked Douluo is the control system. With the Spirit Master and the Evil Soul Masters working together, plus the amplification from the Evil Soul Masters, even Super Douluo is no match for them.

The two of them are more than capable of overseeing the Holy Spirit Church branch of Ming Capital.

With such a big incident at Ming Capital, these two naturally began to investigate in secret... Of course, they found nothing.

But although nothing seems to have been found, one conclusion can be drawn—the force behind all this is definitely exceptionally powerful!

This is also the consensus among Ming Capital's senior management!

After all, no one would have imagined that all of this was caused by one person.

Even if someone could actually kill the Third Prince and Xu Tianran simultaneously, what would their motive be?

Like most criminal cases, murderers must have a motive.

Even the bigwigs at Ming Capital couldn't figure out the murderer's motive, so the theory that there was only one perpetrator was rejected by most people.

On the contrary, there is a mysterious force hidden behind the scenes that wants to overthrow the royal family and change the dynasty. Therefore, it makes perfect sense for them to assassinate the two most promising heirs of this generation.

The Holy Spirit Church originally had the idea of ​​becoming the "state religion" of the Sun Moon Empire, and even envisioned that in the future, the status of the state religion would be above that of the imperial power!

Now, a mysterious force has suddenly emerged, which naturally makes them very wary.

Since Nangong Wan and Masked Douluo couldn't find out who was behind it all, naturally a more advanced and powerful person would investigate.

Bai Zhou could only think of four people: Zhongli Wu, Phoenix Ling, Dragon Xiaoyao, and Ye Xishui.

Ye Xishui is a big shot and rarely goes out.

As the son of the two and the current leader of Holy Spirit Church, Zhongli Wu is unlikely to come to investigate personally. Instead, his wife, Phoenix Ling, is more likely to come.

After all, Phoenix Diamond was originally in charge of Ming Capital. Holy Spirit Church Bai Zhou had not sensed any information from the Soul Guidance System since it was not currently in Ming Capital.

The last one might be Dragon Xiaoyao. This old man is usually very idle, and because of his debt to Ye Xishui, he has been completely trained by Ye Xishui to be like a dog. He obeys her every word and does all the dirty and tiring work without complaint.

Furthermore, Dragon Xiaoyao possesses the strength of a level 99 Limit Douluo, making him virtually invincible.

The recent upheaval at Ming Capital is most likely due to Dragon Xiaoyao's investigation.

Although Bai Zhou is currently very strong, he has not reached the level of Limit Douluo. His overall combat strength is probably about equal to Dragon Xiaoyao's.

After all, he only has a slightly higher mental force than Dragon Xiaoyao. He can use other methods to bully trash like Super Douluo, but he still can't completely overwhelm a powerful opponent like Dragon Xiaoyao.

He couldn't do anything to Dragon Xiaoyao, but Dragon Xiaoyao couldn't do anything to him either. If he wanted to leave, no one could stop him.

That's why Bai Zhou has made ample preparations this time – to unleash his full potential once again!

To be on the safe side, or rather, to increase the success rate of his wish, Bai Zhou didn't wish for any weapon that could directly defeat Dragon Xiaoyao. Instead, he obtained a very fair and ordinary weapon —the Soul-Binding Arena.

Perhaps because this weapon was relatively ordinary, Bai Zhou obtained it with just one wish.

As the name suggests, this device can pull both the user and their opponent into a special space where they cannot use any Spirit Ability. The restriction lasts for one hour, during which neither of them can leave the arena unless one of them dies.

This is somewhat similar to the now-defunct " Slaughter City," which works by blocking the effect of the spirit ring.

After all, a Spirit Master's spirit ring is actually an external object, not an ability cultivated by themselves. If the spirit ring is shielded or broken, the Spirit Ability cannot be used. No matter how strong the spirit power is, it will be in vain.

This is tantamount to cutting off the source of a Spirit Master's strength! It's practically rendering a Spirit Master useless.

Bai Zhou possesses various movement techniques and martial arts skills; this is his own ability, completely unrestricted. In addition, Spirit Bone... Spirit Ability can also be used, just like creating your own Spirit Ability.

If Bai Zhou uses Spirit Ability, he might not be able to do anything to Dragon Xiaoyao.

However, without using Spirit Ability, Bai Zhou is confident he can beat Dragon Xiaoyao to a pulp.
