I really am a Titled Douluo

The news quickly spread to the ears of everyone in the Sea God Pavilion!

Cai Yue'er, with a solemn expression, began, "Elders, according to the information we've gathered, the Spirit Pagoda has captured and imprisoned the entire envoy team sent by the Douling Empire for negotiations!"

At her words, Turbid World's eyes widened in shock. "What? The Spirit Pagoda actually captured and imprisoned the entire envoy team from the Douling Empire, including their escort!"

Feng Wu Yu, however, appeared much more composed, "That must be a rumor. How could the Spirit Pagoda do such a thing?"

But Cai Yue'er shook her head, "No, the information is very reliable."

Ya Li's brows furrowed slightly, "If that's the case, then what is the Pagoda Master, Leng Yaozhu, thinking? Doing this will undoubtedly worsen the relationship between the Spirit Pagoda and the Douling Empire!"

Now, with the Holy Spirit Cult and abyssal creatures, these two colossal entities present, it would be best not to start a war if harmonious development is possible!

Long Yeyue's beautiful eyes flickered, "No...there must be more to this incident than meets the eye. Leng Yaozhu, able to serve as the Pagoda Master of the Spirit Pagoda, and even having Qiangu Qingfeng willingly assist her, couldn't possibly fail to understand such simple matters!"

"The only possibility is that a conflict has arisen between the Douling Empire and the Spirit Pagoda, perhaps related to the initial decision to cut off the supply of Spirit Souls to the Douling Empire!"

She had a clear understanding of Leng Yaozhu, although she didn't know why she took the position of Pagoda Master of the Spirit Pagoda, she would not easily stir up trouble!

Especially against an empire!

Tang Yinmeng propped up her chin, pondering, "Hearing Elder Long say this, it seems to be the case. This year, the Douling Empire has been unable to purchase Spirit Souls from the proper channels of the Spirit Pagoda!"

"They've always had to rely on buying back at high prices from the Xingluo Empire and Douling Empire, which, accordingly, increases the expenditure by quite a bit!"

Lan Mu Zi's pupils contracted, "Thinking in this context, the emissaries from the Douling Empire came here to convince the Spirit Pagoda to resume supplying Spirit Souls, but were refused and, due to some factor, angered the higher-ups!"

Long Yeyue expressed surprise, admiringly saying, "Lan Mu Zi, I didn't expect you to be so thoughtful at times like this!"

At her words, Lan Mu Zi could only scratch his head awkwardly...

It couldn't be helped; he and Tang Yinmeng were the youngest in terms of seniority within the Sea God Pavilion!

Yuan En Zhentian abruptly said, "That possibility is very high, but it's still just our guess. Elder Xu, what do you think?"

Elder Xu, lost in thought, suddenly snapped back to reality, utters a puzzled, "Hmm?"

Cai Yue'er spoke with a hint of resentment, "Putting aside the matter at hand, Elder Xu, I've always been curious, why are you always so silent during the Sea God Pavilion meetings?"

The other Elders nodded in agreement.

Almost every time, if Elder Xu was not directly addressed, he seemed nearly invisible.

Elder Xu chuckled lightly, "Well, perhaps it's because all the Elders are quite familiar with the proceedings, so whether or not I express my thoughts doesn't really make a difference?"

However, what greeted him was an array of extremely skeptical looks from the Sea God Pavilion Elders...

In the entire Sea God Pavilion, the one with the most say was Long Yeyue, but the person most worthy of trust was undoubtedly Elder Xu!

Because whatever he said has never led anyone astray!

After coughing discreetly into his hand, Elder Xu continued, "Alright, I'll try to get more involved next time!"

He didn't concern himself with these matters; he just wanted to know where the missing Life Force and destructive power had gone and what they were being used for!

Turbid World tried to smooth things over, "Alright, let's not be too hard on Elder Xu. Perhaps he just isn't interested in these trivial matters!"

Feng Wu Yu shot him a glare, "What do you mean 'trivial matters'? This 'trivial matter' could cause the great empires to go to war!"

...

Having witnessed all of this, Sima Jinchi smacked his lips and said, "Truly terrifying, as expected of a woman with multiple hundred-thousand-year soul rings!!"

This punch, if it were himself without utilizing his Martial Soul True Body, he feared he might also find it difficult to defend against!

At that moment, Tang Wulin suddenly drew close to him, reached out, and pressed down on his shoulder, "Brother Sima!"

Sima Jinchi stared blankly for a moment, confusedly asked, "Wulin, what's wrong?"

Tang Wulin said earnestly, "Just now, I felt a bloodline from your Martial Soul that also belonged to the Dragon God, and a voice inside me has been telling me that you are my weapon."

"So... maybe we could unleash a Soul Fusion Skill!"

Sima Jinchi's eyes widened, "Wulin, are you sure you're not joking?"

If it were possible to unleash a Martial Soul Fusion Skill, then those in the Blood God Army who had come into physical contact should have felt some sort of response!

Hope flickered in Tang Wulin's eyes, "We won't lose a piece of flesh by trying, right?"

Sima Jinchi hesitated, and after a few seconds, he replied, "Alright, but only this once; we still haven't dealt with the members of the Spirit Pagoda and the evil Soul Masters yet!"

Tang Wulin nodded slightly, "No problem!"

After saying that, the arm with which he was pressing down on Sima Jinchi's shoulder became the medium, and they started transmitting their Soul Power to each other…

In an instant, it seemed as though they had formed a contract with each other…

Sima Jinchi's body also bizarrely emitted a dazzling light...

He glanced at his lower body and exclaimed, "What... what's going on? My body is glowing??"

Could it be that he and Tang Wulin could actually unleash a Martial Soul Fusion Skill?

Tang Wulin took a deep breath and shouted, "Sword, come!!"

In the next second, the light emitted from Sima Jinchi's body became even more intense, and his entire being transformed into a Zhan Long Dao that carried the aura of the Dragon God, gently falling into Tang Wulin's hands…

"We did it... We did it, this is the Martial Soul Fusion Skill between Brother Sima and me! Although it's a bit different from what we expected!"

But he could feel that his own strength, holding the Zhan Long Dao, had skyrocketed several levels!

The members of the Blood Dragon Squad behind him were all dumbfounded…

A living person had actually transformed into a sword; this was simply a challenge to their worldviews!

"Just now... I'm not mistaken, Sima Jinchi seemed to have become the Slaying Dragon Sword in the captain's hands??"

"No... No mistake, I saw it too, is this a new type of Martial Soul Fusion? Never heard of it before!"

"Could it be Sima Jinchi isn't human, and his true form is that Slaying Dragon Sword?"

"Impossible, if he's not human, how could he awaken a Martial Soul and possess Soul Power and Soul Rings!"

"Enough idle talk, focus on the enemy to buy time for the others!"

Grasping the Zhan Long Dao, Tang Wulin tried to communicate, "Brother Sima, how do you feel?"

The Zhan Long Dao vibrated slightly, and a voice mixed with a bit of resentment sounded directly in his mind…

"Although it's a bit annoying, since we've succeeded, let's see how powerful our Martial Soul Fusion Skill really is."
