Chapter 32: 32. Xue Qinghe: Tell them to stop!_1
After fusing with both the Holy Pattern Ghost Leopard and the Red Flame Serpent King, Lin Yi did not generate any Soul Power.
It seems that there is a difference between Martial Souls obtained from the system and those awakened on one's own. He had thought he would be born with full Soul Power.
Both the Growth Spirit Stone and the Breakthrough Crystal could be used to increase Soul Power, but Lin Yi did not plan on using them right now.
His current appearance gave off the impression that he had no Soul Power, which perfectly added to his mysterious aura.
After all, he did not need to use his Martial Soul for self-defense at the moment. With three extreme Attributes, he was already powerful enough to dominate Soul Land.
After a brief rest overnight.
The next day, in the early morning.
Lin Yi's biological clock woke him up early.
He walked out of the cabin Bi Bidong built for him and went up to the stands.
Turning his head, he suddenly froze for a moment.
It's only this early, and yet a long queue has already formed beneath the stands!
Have you people eaten breakfast yet?!
All these were the Gua Sha Masters from last night.
The first in line was a middle-aged man with dark circles under his eyes. Lin Yi remembered him; he had earned fifty golden soul coins the previous night, which made him ridiculously happy.
But that's understandable. For the mighty, strength is everything.
Whereas for ordinary citizens and normal Soul Masters, the importance of money in life is still significant.
"Senior has finally woken up!"
"We didn't dare to disturb you while you were sleeping!"
"Senior! Let's start quickly before the people from Martial Soul Hall arrive!"
"That's right! Once they arrive, we won't have a chance!"
Lin Yi nodded lightly.
However, he had no sympathy for these people because all he saw was damage.
So, when those Titled Douluo arrived later, Lin Yi would not let them queue up. He would even be happy to let those Titled Douluo cut in line.
...
Early in the morning, the battle for looting on the stands was in full swing.
These Gua Sha Masters had an understanding among themselves, quickly dealt their damage twice, collected their rewards, and did not linger on the stands for long.
But Lin Yi knew that they were actually afraid of being attacked by the people lining up behind them.
Outside of Soul City.
A convoy slowly entered.
Elite soldiers dressed in shiny silver armor with long spears cleared the way at the front.
Following behind was a lavishly decorated carriage.
With the Tiandou Empire's unique totem on the carriage, the individual sitting inside was none other than the Crown Prince of the Tiandou Empire, Xue Qinghe.
"Crown Prince, Soul City is just ahead!"
"Hmm."
A gentle male voice responded from within the carriage.
On the surface, Xue Qinghe's mission was to conduct trade between the Tiandou Empire and Martial Soul Hall.
But in reality, it was to report on the specific progress of Martial Soul Hall's infiltration plan.
And by the way, to visit his grandfather, and that woman.
"Guard Commander, after entering Martial Soul Hall, you all shall wait outside, and I will go in alone."
Xue Qinghe's calm voice came from the carriage.
"But, Crown Prince, we are responsible for your safety..."
"No need to worry. Although Martial Soul Hall has been audacious lately, if they were to do something to a Crown Prince, it would amount to a declaration of war. They do not dare to turn against the empire just yet."
"Yes, Crown Prince!"
The secret of Xue Qinghe, apart from some within Martial Soul Hall, remained hidden from the entire royal family of the Tiandou Empire.
His true identity was the daughter of the former Pope of Martial Soul Hall, Qian Xunji, the granddaughter of the Great Priest, Qian Renxue.
He was also the possessor of the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul.
The convoy entered Soul City.
"I can't remember the last time I was back. I wonder if there have been any big changes in Soul City..."
Just as he opened the curtains to look outside, Xue Qinghe paused for a moment.
So many people gathered there... what does that mean?
The Guard Commander also noticed the scene ahead, mainly because the road the convoy was traveling on had already been blocked by those people.
He furrowed his brows, "The people of Soul City, really have no manners, can't they see that the whole road is blocked?"
"People ahead! Envoys from Tiandou, make way at once!"
However, when the Guard Commander called out, not a single person paid him any heed, acting as if they hadn't heard him at all, their gazes all fixed on the direction of a viewing platform.
There appeared to be a battle taking place on the viewing platform.
"Guard Commander, let the convoy stop, we'll proceed on foot."
Xue Qinghe said calmly.
"How can this be acceptable? Your Highness, the Crown Prince! This is beneath your dignity! Damnable Martial Soul Hall, they're definitely making things difficult for us on purpose!"
The Guard Commander was extremely angry. He was a level 50 Soul King himself, and at that moment he really wanted to release his Martial Soul and teach those people a lesson.
"Let's not complicate matters, stop the convoy."
"As you command..."
The carriage curtain was lifted, and Xue Qinghe, with his handsome appearance, was helped off the carriage by the Guard Commander.
He was dignified and refined, every move he made was full of the elegance imparted by the court's etiquette.
"Let's go and see what exactly is happening. Speak to them nicely, we don't want to start a dispute here."
Xue Qinghe ordered the Guard Commander.
"Yes, Your Highness, the Crown Prince."
The Guard Commander walked toward the crowd, with Xue Qinghe following slowly behind.
"Hey! What are you people doing blocking the way here? Make way at once!"
The Guard Commander shouted angrily at the people lining up.
But the people in line ignored him.
The Guard Commander frowned and looked up at the viewing platform, pausing for a moment in surprise.
He saw that on the platform, a group of burly men surrounded a youngster, who was currently being bombarded with soul skills one after another.
And that poor young man didn't even have a chance to fight back, subject to their bullying!
"Your Highness, the Crown Prince! They... they're queuing up to bully a youngster! And that youngster looks like just a child!"
The Guard Commander quickly ran back and said angrily.
Xue Qinghe also saw the scene taking place over there at that moment.
He couldn't help but frown deeply.
When did the customs within Soul City become so deplorable?
How could so many people gang up on a young man like this?
Was this still the Soul City he remembered, with its strict customs, where behavior was always constrained?
"Make them stop."
Xue Qinghe commanded, brow furrowed.
He could not tolerate that such things were happening in the place where he once lived. If word got out, what face would the Martial Soul Hall have to stand on in Soul Land?
...
"Is this true?!"
Inside the Worship Hall, a dignified-looking man turned around, his anger causing his sleeves to flutter.
Thousand Waves was staring intently at the Scout before him.
The Scout had just reported that Bi Bidong had actually gone out early in the morning with several Elders to do what... to see some 'suicidal' youngster?
Did she not know that Qian Renxue was coming today?!
"Return to the Great Priest, absolutely true. Moreover, that viewing platform in the city has been excessively popular since yesterday. More than half of Soul City's Soul Masters have been there to watch for a whole day."
"Her Holiness the Pope and several Elders did not return until after dark."
"Preposterous!"
Thousand Waves was unable to contain his fury.
How could Bi Bidong, as the Pope, be so frivolous?
It seemed he would have to reconsider his stance on impeaching the Pope.
But just then, the Demon Bear Douluo, the only one who had not left Martial Soul Hall, arrived outside the Worship Hall.
In his hand was the Six-winged Angel Suit Experience Card that he had obtained yesterday.
