151: Chapter 151 Arrow Kills the Title, the Helplessness of the King of Slaughter

Liu Erlong absorbed the spirit ring, and it took another two days to finish. During these two days, Su Ling and Hu Liena completed two intimate interactions, obtaining a purple treasure chest and a black treasure chest.

"Su Ling, I succeeded!"

Nine spirit rings lit up: two yellow, two purple, four black, and one red. According to the current standards of the Douluo Continent, this was the optimal configuration for a Titled Douluo.

"Sister Liu, what Rank has your Soul Power reached now?" Su Ling asked, while Hu Liena also looked at Liu Erlong curiously.

"Rank 95. I thought I could reach Rank 96," Liu Erlong said with some regret.

Cultivating from Rank 95 to Rank 96 is very difficult, and the energy required is much greater than when increasing Ranks previously.

Although Liu Erlong absorbed two 100,000-year spirit rings, she started from Rank 88.

The energy contained in the first 100,000-year spirit ring allowed her to rise from Rank 88 to Rank 90; in fact, the energy contained in the spirit ring should have been more than that.

It was only when Liu Erlong absorbed the second spirit ring that she fully absorbed all the energy from both spirit rings, so her Soul Power only increased to Rank 95 at most.

Actually, this was just Su Ling's guess; whether it was Rank 94 or Rank 95, Rank 96 was somewhat impossible.

"Sister Liu, reaching Rank 95 is already very good," Hu Liena said, though this actually surprised her quite a bit.

How long has it been? Just about a year, right? Liu Erlong started at Rank 86, and in the blink of an eye, she has risen to Rank 95.

Such a rate of improvement, if placed on the continent, who wouldn't be surprised?

And the driving force behind all this is Su Ling, who is standing next to her.

And it's the same for her; how long has it been? She has already risen from Rank 61 when she first entered to Rank 76. Everything feels like a dream, and she doesn't even know how to explain it to Bibi Dong when they go out in the future.

"Su Ling, can we go to challenge the Hell Slaughter Arena now?" Liu Erlong said. The continuous improvements had left her unable to wait to go fight.

Su Ling said: "Of course, let's go now."

The three of them tidied up briefly and went straight out of the Formation towards the Hell Slaughter Arena.

The moment Su Ling and Liu Erlong appeared again, the members of the Enforcement Team and the people from the Hell Envoy's side immediately ran out to report it.

After all, both the Hell Envoy and the Enforcement Team had orders from the Slaughter King not to let anyone reach 100 victories again to challenge the Hell Road.

"Captain, that 8225 and 8226 signed up at the same time. They are going to participate in the 90th battle. That 8001 has already reached 99 battles, but she hasn't signed up; it seems she is waiting for all three of them to reach 100 victories together."

"Good, very good. This time, I'll see how he answers me," Laris immediately stood up.

"Go to the Hell Slaughter Arena. Also, notify the other two vice-captains to take people and ambush them on the only road they can take back. If he doesn't agree, hmph... then don't blame me for being impolite."

The last time he didn't make a move against the one called the Shura King, it was because the Slaughter King had said that they must follow the rules to kill him or keep him in the Slaughter City.

As for these two, the Slaughter King didn't say to follow the rules.

Since they didn't want to show Face, then don't blame him for being impolite.

At this moment, in the Hell Slaughter Arena, after Su Ling and Liu Erlong entered, nine opponents were quickly matched for Liu Erlong, the strongest of whom was only a Spirit Emperor.

Now, facing nine opponents, Liu Erlong was like an adult bullying children, or rather, bullying children in kindergarten.

Liu Erlong made her move, and before long, she achieved her 90th victory.

As for Su Ling, he didn't wait too long either.

Perhaps the people in the Slaughter City knew they hadn't come recently, so there were more people signing up than usual.

When the people who came in saw that Su Ling was an opponent, their Faces all turned green.

However, since they had signed up, they had to continue to fight, because not going on stage meant death—certain death—while going on stage at least offered a glimmer of hope for survival.

But how could they withstand Su Ling?

Before long, Su Ling held the Holy Sword of Light and slaughtered them one by one, also achieving his 90th victory.

When Su Ling absorbed the Killing Intent and collected the spoils of war, he walked up.

"8225, congratulations on completing your 90th victory. And 8226, you have also completed yours," Laris looked at Su Ling and Liu Erlong with a smile.

At this moment, this Laris's smile was harmless, and even looked a bit kind.

Su Ling knew that this smile was not so good; it hid a knife.

"Thank you. We should have reached this long ago; recent Cultivation delayed us. I wonder what Captain Laris wants?" Su Ling replied.

Laris wasn't angry either; he said indifferently: "It's still the same matter as before. Are you willing to join my Enforcement Team? Before, you said you would consider it. Now that you've reached 90 victories, you should give me an answer."

"So it's this matter. If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have almost forgotten. We have already decided: the Enforcement Team is not suitable for us. Reaching 100 victories to challenge the Hell Road is our goal," Su Ling replied. At this time, there was no need for him to beat around the bush.

He had thought that Laris would throw a tantrum on the spot, but the other party kept smiling and continued to say one more thing.

"Have you decided?"

Su Ling and Liu Erlong said at the same time: "We have decided."

"Good, since it has been decided, I won't disturb you anymore."

After saying this, Laris was the first to leave the Hell Slaughter Arena.

"Su Ling, what do we do now?" Liu Erlong and Hu Liena looked at Su Ling together.

"What else can we do? If he dares to make a move against us, we'll just deal with them one by one, right? It's just the Enforcement Team. What about the Slaughter King? We are leaving," Su Ling said.

The Slaughter King is a very mysterious figure; up until now, Liu Erlong and Hu Liena hadn't seen him.

Hu Liena had heard Bibi Dong mention him, only saying that the Slaughter King was extremely strong and that they should try not to provoke him if possible.

Even Bibi Dong is wary of him, so one can imagine how strong the opponent is.

But right now, Su Ling doesn't seem to fear even the Slaughter King.

Right, we still have Fusion!

The Fusion ability; Su Ling had taken Hu Liena to try it once before, so she knew how powerful this ability was.

Hu Liena didn't even dare to imagine the combat power after the three of them fused.

Walking out of the Hell Slaughter Arena together, Su Ling said: "Nana, you need to be careful later."

"Mm! Brother Su Ling, I know!" Hu Liena replied in a low voice.

After walking for about a kilometer, they arrived at the death zone where the three members of the Enforcement Team had been previously.

"Su Ling!" Liu Erlong glanced at Su Ling, and Su Ling also nodded, then looked forward: "Come out, everyone. Don't hide anymore."

As soon as Su Ling's voice fell, several figures appeared all around them.

"8225, 8226, someone reported that you two violated the rules of the Slaughter City. Now, my Enforcement Team is here to arrest and investigate you. If you resist, you will be killed without mercy."

The person who came was not Laris; the leaders were two Rank 89 Spirit Douluo, one male and one female.

Su Ling ignored the man who spoke and looked at a ruin nearby, then said: "Laris, come out. Since you want to deal with us, why hide?"

Laris was also stunned. As a Rank 96 Titled Douluo, he had hidden very well; how was he still discovered?

Laris walked out of the ruins, and the thirteen Spirit Douluo surrounding Su Ling immediately saluted, saying: "Greetings, Captain."

"8225, 8226, surrender and accept the trial of our Enforcement Team. If you are innocent, we will naturally let you go." Laris no longer had the smile from the Hell Slaughter Arena; his eyes were cold, and he emitted a chilling, terrifying Killing Intent.

This is the style of the Enforcement Team; they don't need a reason to deal with you.

They only need to say a random sentence to determine your life or death.

If it were an ordinary person, they might really be doomed here today.

Su Ling smiled and said: "Laris, you seem very confident. If you were all counter-killed by us, what would happen then?"

"You, you dare to counter-kill us?"

"Hahaha..."

Su Ling's words were met with ridicule from everyone in the Enforcement Team.

The one who spoke was the male vice-captain who looked to be in his sixties; Su Ling's statement was completely a joke in their eyes.

Laris, however, said: "Even if we can't do anything to you, there is still the great Slaughter King. Just you? Hmph..."

"Everyone, attack together!" Laris said.

"Nana, protect yourself," Su Ling said.

But at this moment, Liu Erlong took the initiative and said: "Su Ling, you don't need to make a move. Let me do it. I have long been unable to stand this group of Enforcement Team members in the Slaughter City. Today, I want to kill to my heart's content."

After speaking, Liu Erlong directly released a powerful Aura, and her Rank 95 Soul Power was unleashed at this moment.

Laris frowned and shouted: "Everyone, be careful! Attack with full force! She is not a Spirit Douluo, but a Titled Douluo."

But his words were a little too late.

Liu Erlong had already made her move, using the movement technique Su Ling had given her, and in the blink of an eye, she arrived in front of a Spirit Douluo.

This Spirit Douluo was completely unprepared, as in their eyes, Su Ling and his group were far from being that powerful.

With a punch, Liu Erlong unleashed the Eight Desolations Fist; the current Liu Erlong had already mastered the sixth punch.

With a loud bang, the Spirit Douluo's body was shattered, and he died on the spot.

"All of you back off, let me handle this! You go deal with the other one." Laris was enraged; he released his Spirit and faced Liu Erlong directly.

Laris's Spirit was a giant axe; wielding the giant axe, he activated his Spirit Ability and slashed toward Liu Erlong.

"I have a Spirit Ability, and you do not! Even if you are a Titled Douluo, so what?" Laris was very confident.

Liu Erlong remained calm as she raised her arm, sending out a giant fire dragon claw that grabbed at Laris's giant axe.

"A Spirit Bone skill? So what! Break for me!" Laris shouted.

But at this critical moment, an arrow pierced through the air.

"Captain, look out!"

At this critical moment, Su Ling activated his skill, Slow, instantly increasing the arrow's speed by 40%, and in an instant, the arrow pierced straight through Laris's heart.

"You... you... des... despicable!"

Su Ling smiled and said, "Despicable? You should ask yourselves that first; don't blame me for not fighting fairly."

In fact, from the very beginning, Liu Erlong had sent a voice transmission to Su Ling, telling him to seize the opportunity to kill him while she fought the opponent, as she knew the power of Su Ling's arrows.

And just as Su Ling had said, who was really being despicable?

This was Slaughter City, not a place where a few people draw a circle and fight by the rules.

As long as you can kill the opponent, no matter what method you use, killing the opponent and surviving yourself is the best way; furthermore, when killing an opponent, you must preserve yourself as much as possible and keep some strength in reserve to deal with other enemies who might have designs on you.

This was the way of survival in Slaughter City.

If they were outside, Liu Erlong certainly wouldn't have done this.

Although this did not align with her personality and usual behavior, Liu Erlong realized that after killing Laris, the Slaughter King might make a move, so she needed to maintain as much of her current Soul Power and combat strength as possible to deal with a stronger opponent.

"Arrows!"

"Kate was also killed by him; no wonder we could never find the culprit."

"Quick, everyone, fight seriously!"

Laris died on the spot, and while everyone was astonished, Su Ling drew his bow and nocked an arrow again, firing several more arrows.

This time, all members of the Enforcement Team began to counterattack, each unleashing their Spirit Ability.

But one must know that Su Ling was now at Rank 90, his strength had increased significantly, and his arrows were drawn to a full moon before accelerating and spinning.

With the acceleration at the tip of the arrows, the six arrows pierced through the bodies of everyone, regardless of their defensive Spirit Abilities, offensive Spirit Abilities, escape skills, or even their Martial Soul Avatar, all fell under Su Ling's arrows.

With one attack, Su Ling had eliminated six Spirit Douluo from the Enforcement Team.

At this point, only six members of the Enforcement Team remained: two deputy captains and four members.

Su Ling said, "Go and bring the Slaughter King here; I want to see how he manages you all."

"You..." The remaining six members of the Slaughter City Enforcement Team were stunned.

With so many teammates and their captain Laris dead, could they continue? They could only devoutly call upon the Slaughter King.

Su Ling did not kill all of the Enforcement Team.

The reason was actually very simple; Su Ling did not want Slaughter City to disappear just yet. It was still necessary, as it could at least punish some evil Spirit Masters, letting these Spirit Masters kill and consume each other here, which meant fewer senseless deaths on the Douluo Continent.

One must know that some Spirit Masters specialized in devouring the Souls of other Spirit Masters or ordinary people; such Spirit Masters were either killed or sent here.

Leaving the remaining members of the Enforcement Team allowed them to stay and manage the existing order of Slaughter City.

Suddenly, a figure appeared in the sky and then slowly descended.

A powerful Aura pressed down directly.

"You are courting death, daring to kill members of my Enforcement Team; you deserve to die!"

Under the immense pressure of the Aura, Hu Liena was pinned to the ground on the spot, using her hands to support her body.

As for Liu Erlong, her body felt extremely uncomfortable, and she tried her best to support herself, refusing to bow down to the Slaughter King.

Facing the Slaughter King, or rather, the Aura emitted by Tang Chen, Su Ling also resisted with all his might, currently only managing to keep from collapsing.

Su Ling had still underestimated the Slaughter King, or rather, Tang Chen.

Although his body would be hollowed out later, it seemed his power was still present for now.

With difficulty, he lifted his head to look at the descending Slaughter King, only to see him wrapped entirely in a huge, high-collared scarlet cloak.

From a distance, he looked like a blood shadow, and as he approached, Su Ling saw his Face.

He looked like a middle-aged man, around forty years old, with a somewhat pale complexion; looking at it this way, Tang Chen's body was already having problems, and a collapse was only a matter of time.

Su Ling circulated his Soul Power, and under the protection of his Soul Power, the pressure on him lessened significantly.

"Great Slaughter King, they killed our Enforcement Team members and killed our captain; please make a decision for us." The six kneeling Enforcement Team members shouted in unison.

The Slaughter King said in that low voice with a hint of sharpness, "You... deserve to die!"

After speaking, the Slaughter King moved, attacking Su Ling directly.

Although he did not use Tang Chen's Spirit, the Clear Sky Hammer, a Rank 99 attack was not to be trifled with; Su Ling immediately fired an arrow to counterattack.

But the arrow he fired was actually swatted away and shattered by the Slaughter King with one hand.

"A mere trick!"

"It's over, this is dangerous!" In this instant, Su Ling felt the threat of death for the first time on the Douluo Continent.

"Don't even think about hurting Su Ling!" Liu Erlong's body flashed and she arrived beside Su Ling; her speed was simply inconceivable.

In a split second, Liu Erlong directly took the Slaughter King's attack head-on.

Just a moment ago, Liu Erlong had been suppressed to the point where standing was difficult, but now her combat strength seemed to have skyrocketed in an instant.

What is this?

Su Ling looked at Liu Erlong's System panel; at this moment, she had actually activated the passive Guard skill, and this was the first time it had been activated since Su Ling acquired this skill.

This was the second skill on the System panel for Liu Erlong, Guard, a passive skill.

Its effect was that when the host encountered danger, if Liu Erlong was nearby, her combat strength could increase by 300%.

With the Rank 95 Liu Erlong increasing her combat strength by 300%, she could instantly go toe-to-toe with the Slaughter King.

According to the combat strength calculations in Douluo, a Rank 99 is at least 2.5 times stronger than a Rank 95, or even more.

This time, Liu Erlong had increased her combat strength by 300%.

She rushed forward and began fighting the Slaughter King.

At this moment, the Slaughter King was stunned, or rather, the Nine Headed Bloody Crimson Bat King was stunned, and it was a bit panicked!

It actually couldn't quite defeat the human woman before it.

After all, it could not exert the full power of this body, and if the fight continued, there was even a risk of losing control of this body.

"Wait!" The Nine Headed Bloody Crimson Bat King called for a stop in time.

"Keep fighting, aren't you the Slaughter King?" Liu Erlong said coldly.

The Nine Headed Bloody Crimson Bat King was very helpless, its mood very complicated.

If I had known you had such an ability, why would I have put on such an act?

"This place is not suitable! Let's go to another place to continue the fight." The Nine Headed Bloody Crimson Bat King said; it had lost its nerve, but it couldn't look weak in front of its subordinates in Slaughter City, so moving to an uninhabited place was best.

"Fine!" Su Ling responded on Liu Erlong's behalf.

The reason was simple: at this moment, Su Ling's crisis had been resolved, the passive skill had deactivated, and Liu Erlong's combat strength had returned to its original state.

Liu Erlong also knew about the changes in her body, and since Su Ling had said so, she didn't say anything more; Su Ling must have his reasons, and she only needed to cooperate.

Although Liu Erlong did not look as imposing as before, the Nine Headed Bloody Crimson Bat King dared not try anything lightly at this moment.

Thus, Su Ling took the initiative to send a voice transmission, saying, "Nine Headed Bloody Crimson Bat King, if you don't want to die, let's make a deal."

The Nine Headed Bloody Crimson Bat King looked at Su Ling with a surprised expression; it had actually been seen through.

"You... how could you know?" The voice transmitted back to Su Ling, different from the previous voice, sounding a bit timid.

Su Ling also immediately responded via voice transmission, "How I know is not important; what is important is that you can rest assured, we do not want to target you, we just want to pass through Slaughter City; as long as you do not stop us, you will remain the Slaughter King of Slaughter City."
