Chapter 130: The Opportunity to Change Fate
Heaven Dou Empire, Heaven Dou Royal Academy!
Emperor Xue Ye was overjoyed. The performance of the Heaven Dou Royal Team in this Continental Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament was the best in the history of the competition.
Therefore, Emperor Xue Ye not only lavishly praised the members of the Heaven Dou Royal Team in front of his civil and military officials but also arranged for Crown Prince Xue Qing He to personally visit the Heaven Dou Royal Academy to deliver rewards to the team members.
The rewards included titles and wealth. All members of the Heaven Dou Royal Team were granted the title of Viscount. If they wished, they could receive a city as their territory, where they would enjoy a high degree of autonomy and live as nobles. As for wealth, each member was directly awarded 100,000 gold spirit coins.
Once the rewards were distributed, the members of the Heaven Dou Royal Team were about to graduate from the academy and go their separate ways.
On the plaza halfway up the mountain!
Chen Yuan stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the scenery of the academy. He realized that he, too, would soon be leaving. Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing had already graduated and returned to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan.
In a little while, he would also leave. First, he planned to go to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye to cultivate for a while, break through to level 60, absorb a spirit ring, and become a Soul Emperor. After that, he would consider heading to the City of Slaughter.
The City of Slaughter, the inheritance ground of the Asura God, was originally a place of pure slaughter. However, due to the interference of the Rakshasa God, it had become a filthy, depraved place.
To survive in such a place and leave alive, one needed a strong spirit to avoid being corrupted by the filth and depravity.
Moreover, without the use of spirit skills, one needed formidable combat abilities to achieve a hundred consecutive victories in the Hell Killing Arena, pass through the Road to Hell, and obtain the Slaughter Domain. Only then could one leave alive.
However, there was also the Slaughter King to consider. Chen Yuan frowned as he thought about this:
'This trouble cannot be ignored. But since Tang Hao and Bibi Dong both managed to escape the City of Slaughter, it shows that even the Slaughter King cannot act recklessly in the Hell Killing Arena. After all, the Slaughter King is the uncrowned king of the City of Slaughter, not because he is the Crimson Nine-Headed Bat King, but because he is Tang Chen, the inheritor of the Asura God.'
'As the inheritor of the Asura God, if he were to act recklessly in the Hell Killing Arena and disrupt the rules of the Asura God's inheritance, the Asura God would not hesitate to use divine power to eliminate him, lest Tang Chen continue to occupy the inheritance.'
"Without considering the Slaughter King taking direct action, the greatest danger in the City of Slaughter comes from the unscrupulous fallen ones. Even if I can't use spirit skills, with my swordsmanship alone, I can cut through them..."
As Chen Yuan pondered, a figure approached him. It was none other than Xue Qing He.
Although Xue Qing He was the crown prince, his attire was always simple. His long hair was tied back with a green ribbon, and his face bore a gentle smile that naturally made people feel at ease. He spoke softly:
"Chen Yuan, I heard from the three education commissioners that you're also graduating from the academy. What are your plans?"
Hearing this, Chen Yuan pulled his thoughts away from the City of Slaughter and looked at Xue Qing He, smiling as he replied:
"Brother Xue, as you know, my true spirit power level makes staying in the academy more harmful than beneficial. As a soul master, I naturally need to find a new place to cultivate my spirit power, reach the next bottleneck as soon as possible, and absorb a spirit ring to gain my next title."
Hearing this, Xue Qing He was momentarily lost in thought. As a soul master, Chen Yuan was single-mindedly focused on cultivating his spirit power. This was something Xue Qing He, as a spy, could only dream of. He was no longer pure. As a spy, his eyes were filled with利益 (interests), and his hands were stained with blood. He could no longer be a pure soul master.
Then, Xue Qing He looked at Chen Yuan with admiration and said regretfully:
"Chen Yuan, it's such a pity that you're Sword Douluo's disciple. If you were a free soul master, I would definitely recruit you into the Crown Prince's residence, entrust you with important responsibilities, and make you my right-hand man. A pure soul master like you will undoubtedly achieve great things in the future."
Then, Xue Qing He spoke solemnly:
"Chen Yuan, I truly admire you. Even if I can't recruit you as a guest elder in the Crown Prince's residence, I hope we can still be friends."
Chen Yuan replied with a calm expression:
"Brother Xue, I thought we were already friends."
Hearing this, Xue Qing He was delighted. Even as he left, he was still smiling.
Watching Xue Qing He's retreating figure, Chen Yuan shook his head imperceptibly. Friends? Perhaps we can be friends when you're willing to be honest with me.
A short while later, Dugu Yan and Ye Ling Ling also approached the plaza.
Earlier, the three education commissioners had arranged for their graduation. From now on, they would be free soul masters. Additionally, they held the title of Viscount, making them nobles. If they wished, they could request a territory from the empire. If not, they could receive a monthly stipend.
Dugu Yan stretched lazily, her perfect figure on full display. She then smiled at Ye Ling Ling:
"Ling Ling, now that we've graduated, what are your plans?"
Hearing this, Ye Ling Ling felt a moment of confusion before answering honestly:
"I plan to travel the continent with my grandmother, using the Nine-Hearted Begonia's healing abilities to help people. During our travels, I'll focus on cultivating. If I don't meet someone I love, I'll live with my grandmother. If I do meet someone, I'll marry him and have children. When the child turns six, either my grandmother or I will commit suicide to pave the way for the child to awaken the Nine-Hearted Begonia martial soul. This is the fate of our Nine-Hearted Begonia lineage."
Hearing this, Dugu Yan's heart tightened. Such a fate was unbearable, yet Ye Ling Ling spoke of it so calmly, as if she had long accepted it.
She didn't want her friend to end up like this. Dugu Yan then spoke seriously to Ye Ling Ling:
"Ling Ling, you're one of my few friends. I don't want to see you meet such an end. The fate of your Nine-Hearted Begonia lineage is clearly due to a flaw in your martial soul. If your martial soul can evolve, perhaps the flaw can be fixed."
Ye Ling Ling could sense Dugu Yan's concern, which warmed her heart. She then smiled bitterly:
"Martial soul evolution is not so easy. The chance of a martial soul evolving is one in ten thousand. Yan Yan, I'm truly grateful, but there's really nothing you can do to help me."
Dugu Yan frowned. There were no suitable immortal herbs left in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye for Ye Ling Ling. However, Chen Yuan had mentioned that he would bring back an immortal herb full of vitality. Perhaps this was the opportunity to change her fate.
Coincidentally, Chen Yuan was standing ahead, waiting for them with a smile...
