Chapter 16: The Clouds Arrive
"Na'er, be good, don't cry..."
Na'er, like a frightened little koala, quietly huddled in Su Jiu's arms.
The familiar tone and familiar way of getting along made her subconsciously overlap Su Jiu's image with A Jiu's, and she unexpectedly found a rare sense of security in him.
Her crying and sobbing gradually subsided, but her little hands still tightly gripped her tear-soaked clothes, as if afraid that if she let go, this warm embrace would vanish into thin air.
Looking at her red and swollen eyes, Su Jiu's face was a mixture of heartache and relief. This little girl had learned to rely on herself. She gently stroked her head and back with her fingertips.
It's his fault, he's the one who's bad...
A short while later, Leng Yaozhu arrived carrying the sleeping Leng family's second sister in her hand, with two Dark Hummingbirds and a Dark Bell, both of which had lost all their cultivation, chained behind her using soul power.
"Ah Jiu, why is my sister crying?"
"What else could it be? Sister Yaozhu, you know my martial spirit. I activated it three times in a row, and I got scared..."
Su Jiu's face was full of helplessness; there was nothing he could do.
"Well, that's true, there's nothing we can do about it."
"By the way, Ah Jiu, should we go help them next?"
Leng Yaozhu raised her head, gazing at the team battle above the Sea God Clan, looking worried, and subconsciously asked Su Jiu for advice.
Several Limit Douluos were already bloodthirsty, fighting fiercely until the sky darkened. The violent collision of soul power tore through layers of clouds, and even the stable spatial barrier was constantly distorted, showing signs of faintly collapsing!
Meanwhile, on the distant sea, the other two were even more fearless, fighting to the death with every move, each strike splattering blood. They were completely insane, exchanging lives for lives, each strike carrying the determination and bloodlust of mutual destruction!
"My dear sister, to put it bluntly, you'd better not go up there and cause them trouble. Below the limit, everyone is an ant, and there are several quasi-gods over there. Let's just stay here and keep an eye on our two special merits."
Su Jiu grabbed Leng Yaozhu's hand, preventing her from helping. "We've already done what we could to help; we're not afraid of what others might say behind our backs."
The opposing team consists entirely of level 98 experts. If she, a level 98 Super Douluo, were to go up there, wouldn't that be a free kill?
Even if Leng Yaozhu has a four-word battle armor that can boost her combat power to a level comparable to the limit, it is still fake after all. The strength that is boosted by external forces will be exposed in a single move when facing the real limit!
Actually, these are not what Su Jiu is most worried about.
Blow up!
The self-destruction of the Limit Douluo, driven to desperation, is the hidden bomb that Su Jiu is currently most worried about.
As far as he knew, Guan Yue of the Temple of War was such a person. If he used the Divine Strike, it would be fine, but if he self-destructed, he might wipe out all of his teammates as well.
At the same time, we cannot rule out the possibility of those lunatics in the Holy Spirit Cult.
"Besides, if you go to help them, I still have to look after Na'er. What about Sister Yu Lai? We siblings went through so much trouble to catch her. If she runs away, where are we supposed to cry?"
"Ah Jiu is right. Let's wait here and watch them."
Leng Yaozhu suddenly realized what was going on. To be on the safe side, she immediately channeled her soul power into Leng Yulai's body, completely sealing and imprisoning her soul core and spiritual sea. At the same time, a massive amount of crimson-gold soul power surged out, condensing into solidified chains that tightly bound her limbs, rendering her unable to move.
Just then, Su Jiu slowly walked forward.
He examined them closely and couldn't help but marvel at the wonder of the Creator. The two sisters looked as if they had been copied from the same mold.
Leng Yulai has long, purplish-pink hair, a dark temperament, and a captivating and alluring charm that is both cold and bewitching.
Leng Yaozhu, on the other hand, has long, fiery red-gold hair that is bright and beautiful, with a refined and elegant temperament, and a radiant and dignified presence.
It must be because their martial soul attributes are completely different that they have such similar appearances but completely contradictory temperaments.
"Old Su, why are there two cold ladies here?"
Na'er turned around at some point and saw this amazing scene, and she was also amazed.
"Na'er, this is my sister's younger sister, Leng Yulai. Just call her Second Sister."
Leng Yaozhu stepped forward and took Na'er from her. She was small and cool to the touch, and it felt very comfortable to hold her in her arms.
Su Jiu then freed his hands and walked over to the two unlucky guys, an old man and a little girl.
They were on the verge of death, lying on the ground like two dead dogs.
The once invincible Dark Hummingbird and Dark Bell have become useless overnight. Without its claws and fangs, can a tiger still be considered a mountain king?
What's with the guy who's grimacing and baring his teeth while unconscious?
Su Jiu then remembered that he had almost messed things up. His extreme fire and destructive power were still ravaging their bodies. If he didn't remove them in time, they would probably die!
A living hummingbird and its bell are far more useful than a dead one.
A mental scan swept over them, instantly annihilating the violent elements within their bodies, and their tightly furrowed brows finally relaxed slightly.
……
A short while later.
A series of sonic booms and gunshots echoed through the sky. Looking up, one could see a silver-white spear that was a thousand meters long!
It's Elder Yunming who's here.
Su Jiu looked into Leng Yaozhu's bloodshot eyes, but saw no excitement in them.
"Sister Yaozhu, it seems you've truly let go of Old Man Yunming."
"Well, there's nothing I can do. After all, life always has to move forward. What needs to be let go has to be let go. Besides, I have Ajiu and Na'er now, so I can see things in a better light..."
……
"Tsk! It's Yun Ming!"
The silver spear that pierced the sky in the distance instantly shattered the Demon Emperor's remaining madness and fighting spirit.
Her heart skipped a beat, and she dared not linger in the fight any longer. Her massive body leaped high into the air, and with a mighty whale-like whip, she whipped up a monstrous wave thousands of meters high. Dragging her battered and bruised body, she fled in panic toward the deep sea.
Chen Xinjie gritted his teeth and squeezed out the last bit of the Sea God's power from the Sea God's helmet, smashing the raging waves with a deafening roar, and was also forced to withdraw from the true form of the Vast Sea.
He was panting heavily, each breath carrying a strong smell of blood. Although he was extremely exhausted, his face could not hide the joy of surviving a disaster.
This battle was far too brutal and difficult...
The four-word battle armor was mostly shattered, the Sea God's helmet was almost completely destroyed, the Sea God's divine power was almost exhausted, and his body was covered with wounds of varying depths.
In this battle against the Demon Emperor, he almost exhausted all his life's resources to barely secure this sliver of hope.
In contrast, above the Sea God family, the Underworld Emperor, though weak and pale, was unharmed; the Ghost Emperor's aura appeared unstable, and the Skeleton King's true form was covered in cracks and damaged in many places, but in reality, he was just putting on an act; as for the Dark Blood Demon, he was in a terrible state, with half of his body torn apart by Long Yeyue, the hideous wounds ripped open, extremely terrifying.
On the other side, the other Limit Douluos also suffered a pyrrhic victory.
Zang Xin lost an arm, and a hideous gash on his chest was so deep that bone was visible; Guan Yue suffered a severe injury to his waist and abdomen, a terrifying wound that almost severed him at the waist, and the damaged organs inside his body were vaguely visible; Long Yeyue's Bright Holy Dragon True Body had its wings shattered and its dragon tail completely torn apart. After shedding her Martial Soul True Body, three bloody gashes on her body almost tore open her entire back, and her breath was teetering on the verge of collapse.
Only the father and son, Qian Gu, were spared serious injuries because Qian Gu Dongfeng and the Ghost Emperor harbored a secret. The Ghost Emperor only engaged them in combat and did not kill them.
As for the battlefield below, nearly 60% of the nearly 100 Title Douluos who had fallen into a coma had died!
All the corpses were taken away by the evil soul masters, resulting in heavy losses and a significant blow to Douluo's strength.
On the other hand, the evil soul masters suffered very few titled Douluo who died in battle. They used the Death Knights under the command of the Underworld Emperor as the vanguard to charge forward, while the main force hid in the rear to ambush them when the opportunity arose.
Once the Underworld Emperor had retrieved all the remaining Death Knights, the evil soul masters knew that the time to retreat had come!
The group of evil spirit masters, who valued their lives, immediately withdrew from the fight and retreated swiftly like a tide.
