Douluo Dalu 3: The Legend of the Dragon King

“This rapier was gifted to me by my father when I was a child. It was the rapier I used for my sword cultivation in the beginning. I haven’t used it in many years, yet it is still exceedingly precious to me. It was my first gift from my father and also my first sword. I made it into this ring now. I’m sorry, Lizhi. It’s a little rushed, but I…”Xu Lizhi took a step forward instantly and extended his chubby wrist to her. “I love it, I love it.”

Ye Xinglan could not help laughing upon seeing his eagerness. She seldom smiled, yet this smile was akin to a flower blooming in the spring. It showered glory upon the entire gymnasium.

Xu Lizhi could not refrain himself from laughing out loud upon putting on the sword ring. He spread out his arms and wrapped them around Ye Xinglan abruptly in a rather wild manner for the very first time.

His embrace was warm and secure. Ye Xinglan smiled as well, hugging his waist tightly.

Meanwhile, Xu Lizhi unleashed the soul power from his body and took her along as he shot into the sky. They flew out from the gymnasium and headed straight for the sky.

On the lakeside of Sea God Lake!

Xie Xie eyes revealed his restlessness as he watched the crystal clear lake water. Meanwhile, a familiar aura appeared behind him.

Xie Xie hastily turned around and looked at the person that spoke.

Yuanen Yehui said in confusion, “It’s still very early in the morning. Why did you ask me to come out?”

Xie Xie clenched his teeth and said, “Yuanen, I would like to challenge you!”

Yuanen Yehui was stunned for a moment. She took two steps forward and stood before him. She raised her hand and felt his forehead. “Do you have a fever? Or are you feeling overstuffed after eating?”

The corner of Xie Xie’s lips twitched. “Why would I be overstuffed after eating?”

Yuanen Yehui smiled and said, “If not, why would you come looking to get beaten up?”

Xie Xie could not help feeling exasperated. “How are you so certain that I won’t be able to defeat you?”

Yuanen Yehui shrugged. “Don’t you know it in your heart already?”

Xie Xie said furiously, “I refuse to be misled by fallacies. Come, come, come. Come and beat me up if you can!”

Yuanen Yehui said smilingly, “Sure!” As she spoke, she charged toward Xie Xie in a flash.

They were truly too familiar with one another. She was well aware of Xie Xie’s specialty. Xie Xie was very fast, so she would never allow him to take advantage of his speed.

Ever since she sought revenge for her mother, rekindled her relationship with her father, and returned to her clan, Yuanen Yehui’s temperament had actually changed a lot. She was much more pleasant compared to before.

However, Yuanen Tiandang doted on his daughter more after being reunited with her, naturally. He did not have a good impression of his future son-in-law Xie Xie. He played a few tricks to punish Xie Xie on multiple occasions, and Xie Xie endured them in silence. These punishments were carried out behind Yuanen Yehui’s back, and Xie Xie was too embarrassed to complain to her.

Xie Xie’s silhouette flashed when he was confronted by Yuanen charging at him. His entire body turned illusionary. Given that Yuanen Yehui was familiar with his strategies, would he not also be familiar with her techniques?

Yuanen Yehui’s slap missed. She shouted, “Let’s head to the sky.”

There was no need for her reminder. Xie Xie’s silhouette flickered and he flew toward the sky in order to prevent damaging the area surrounding the Sea God Lake.

Yuanen Yehui followed closely behind. One of them pursued while the other fled, and they arrived high above in a split second.

Xie Xie twisted his body and conjured the Light Dragon Dagger in his hand. His figure flickered continuously as he swiftly split into six duplicates. Those copies craftily attacked Yuanen Yehui from six directions.

The Light Dragon Dagger exuded an aura of sharpness and lightness while emitting a faint dragon’s roar. Radiance pulsated randomly on the dagger, making it bright or dark at various times. It was unpredictable.

The most outstanding aspect of Xie Xie’s martial soul that had evolved into the Space-time Dragon was its unpredictability.

Yuanen Yehui realized that Xie Xie was serious about the match when he unleashed his most effective ability at the start.

Immediately, she decided not to hold back as well. Still in the sky, she took a step forward with her left foot, and at once, the air around her exploded with a loud boom. It felt just like the air had boiled over as large areas of distorted light spread outward.

Judging by the richness of their soul power, Yuanen Yehui, with her twin martial souls, was only preceded by Tang Wulin in the Shrek Seven Monsters.

The tremor her foot had made caused the entire sky to sway.

Xie Xie’s six clones slowed down as though they had sunk into mud. Moreover, they were being displaced.

Yuanen Yehui swung her fist. At once, the warped air began surging toward her direction, cutting off the surrounding area.

The punch was not aimed at any of Xie Xie’s six silhouettes but the thin air. Even so, it caused six duplicates to stumble and fall. It was the Titan Divine Punch!

Yuanen Yehui’s Titan Divine Punch was fused with her Cloud Vortex Divine Punch. Its strength could definitely be described as terrifying.

This was also the reason she had absolute confidence when she was sparring against Xie Xie. Regardless of Xie Xie’s speed, it was utterly meaningless when he was confronted by absolute power, especially her ability that could practically shackle an area of the sky and land.

The strength of one powerful person could defeat ten martial arts cultivators!

She would not unleash her Fallen Angel martial soul when she was fighting against Xie Xie because Titan Giant Ape was the best option to subdue Xie Xie.

Nevertheless, Xie Xie’s six silhouettes suddenly faded simultaneously. They had vanished because of the Cloud Vortex Divine Punch, but Xie Xie’s real body was not revealed.

In a split second, Yuanen Yehui could only feel as if everything around her had become a vacuum. She was surprised by how uneasy she felt.

The unexpected change startled her. It would be unprecedented for her opponent to force his way out of her Titan Divine Punch during a battle. Generally, the opponent could only confront strength with strength. Even if the opponent could teleport, it was utterly impossible to unleash it when she had locked him down.

There was no doubt that Xie Xie was also improving. The instantaneous change was the product of ingenious interchanging of time and space.

Xie Xie’s body was actually in the air diagonally across from behind Yuanen Yehui. His gaze was icy cold and his entire person was in an extremely calm state. Light flickered on his body as he transformed into an illusionary shadow instantly and descended from the sky.

His body flickered consecutively seven times as he went down. With each flicker, he was moving in and out of space.

Yuanen Yehui could rely on her formidable spiritual power to detect Xie Xie’s attack coming from her back, but as a result of his flickering, she felt as if seven people had suddenly appeared behind her. Moreover, they were all attacking her from different angles.

She was not as quick as Xie Xie after all. It was definitely rather dangerous for her to brace an attack like this with her back. In fact, she did not even have the time to turn around.

Nevertheless, Yuanen Yehui made a display of her incredible abilities. Instead of turning around, she let out a howl from her mouth, and her body swelled up instantly. Like an eruption, she grew several meters taller in a split second, and her entire body emitted an awesome aura.

Her body suddenly slammed backward. As she slammed her body back, a powerful vortex began spinning at high speed at the center of her back.

Xie Xie’s flickering body was immediately affected. Not only that, his angle of attack changed as a result of Yuanen Yehui’s body growing so suddenly.

However, Xie Xie’s eyes lit up, one black and the other white. The eighth soul ring on his body was faintly glowing.

He took a step forward into the air. The residual shadows left behind when his body flickered seven times had condensed simultaneously. They continued their attack, but his original body had disappeared without a trace.

It was a Time-space Shuttle!

Despite the piercing pain, Yuanen Yehui still slammed her back into the attack coming from behind. The seven silhouettes were blasted away forcefully.

Just as she was preparing to turn around and finish off Xie Xie, a feeling of extreme danger from an unseen world suddenly arose in her heart.
