Douluo:Elf Descends, I Am the Creator God

Though they were mentally grumbling, neither Ning Fengzhi nor Chen Xin showed any anger.

After twitching their lips slightly, the two of them managed to force an awkward smile.

At that moment, Su Xiaoli seemed to recall something.

She rubbed her forehead where Yunxiao had flicked her earlier before speaking slowly.

"A thirty-thousand-year Soul Bone?"

"Is it the same kind of bone that Brother Qinghe gifted last time?"

"I remember Brother Qinghe gave a fifty-thousand-year bone."

"Oh, right, now I recall."

"Brother Qinghe gifted a fifty-thousand-year Torso Bone."

She had learned about Soul Bones before.

However, due to her unique identity as the Six-Winged Space Elf King—or rather, the entire Elf Clan—Soul Bones had never been of any practical use to them.

Because of this, she hadn't immediately remembered the concept of Soul Bones.

In the hands of her clan leader, Soul Bones were nothing more than collectibles or experimental materials.

Honestly, in Yunxiao's possession, Soul Bones hadn't served much purpose either.

Apart from being displayed as collectibles, they were mostly used as expendable materials for experiments.

For instance, those Ten Thousand Year Soul Bones from before had all been placed in the study as decorative items.

As the little maid, Su Xiaoli was naturally responsible for cleaning.

That was how she knew about the fifty-thousand-year Torso Bone that Qian Renxue had gifted.

Ning Fengzhi: "..."

Chen Xin: "..."

"A f-fifty-thousand-year Torso Bone?"

Upon hearing that "Xue Qinghe," representing the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, had gifted Elf Crown a fifty-thousand-year Torso Bone, the two of them were utterly shocked by Xue Ye's extravagance.

Good heavens!

They had thought offering a thirty-thousand-year leg Soul Bone as a gift was already a grand gesture of sincerity.

But never had they imagined someone would outdo even the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School in boldness.

They gave "Xue Qinghe" a deep look, then glanced at Su Xiaoli.

It was then that Chen Xin noticed something amiss.

"A... a Soul Grandmaster under fifteen years old?"

It was one thing not to look, but looking now gave him a fright.

Sensing the Soul Power fluctuations emanating from Su Xiaoli, Chen Xin was inwardly stunned.

He knew a thing or two about Su Xiaoli, the cat girl.

Back when she was still at the Heaven Dou Auction House, she hadn't even been a Soul Master.

Had she been one—even if she only possessed a single white Soul Ring—those "scum" mercenary groups wouldn't have dared to capture and sell her.

After all, Soul Masters were the most revered profession on the Douluo Continent.

Kidnapping and selling a Soul Master was a crime that, if exposed, would provoke the wrath and retaliation of countless free Soul Masters across the continent.

Who didn't have a few relatives or friends with poor talent?

If these "scum" mercenaries dared to abduct and sell a Soul Master today, who was to say they wouldn't target their loved ones tomorrow?

Because of this, no faction dared to traffic Soul Masters.

Noticing Chen Xin's gaze lingering on Su Xiaoli, Yunxiao pondered for a moment before understanding the situation.

"Has Chen Xin detected Su Xiaoli's Soul Power rank?"

Chen Xin, as a peak-level Titled Douluo at rank 96,

noticing Su Xiaoli's Soul Power level was perfectly normal.

But when Yunxiao thought about that assassination-loving Gu Rong,

he felt it absolutely necessary to give the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School a warning.

Glancing at the still-dazed Ning Fengzhi, Yunxiao finally spoke leisurely.

"Sect Leader Ning, Sword Douluo."

"Given how late it's getting, why don't I escort you out of Heaven Dou City?"

Hearing this, Ning Fengzhi snapped out of his daze instantly.

Seeing an opportunity to build rapport with Elf Crown Yunxiao,

he naturally had no reason to refuse.

In an instant, Ning Fengzhi's face brightened with a smile, his wide sleeves swaying gracefully as he regained his usual composure.

"Your esteemed offer to escort us is truly an honor for Ning."

"I only worry it might delay Your Excellency's other affairs—that would be discourteous of us."

Chen Xin: "..."

"Fengzhi, you..."

Observing Ning Fengzhi's beaming smile, Chen Xin felt an inexplicable weariness.

As a fellow Titled Douluo, if he himself had detected Su Xiaoli's Soul Power level,

how could Elf Crown Yunxiao possibly be unaware?

An escort?

More like a warning, no?

And Chen Xin's suspicion wasn't unfounded.

After all, Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong had prior… tendencies.

Recalling this, Chen Xin gave Yunxiao a slight nod,

even throwing him a reassuring glance.

"Hah, this Chen Xin is quite interesting."

"I thought he was just a battle maniac—"

"Or some sword-obsessed recluse."

"Turns out he understands these subtle maneuvers too."

"Guess that's what happens after years in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School..."

But what did that matter to him?

While Chen Xin didn't dabble in assassinations,

a firm reminder to Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong was still necessary.

The former was always scheming and meddling,

and the latter? Even worse.

Today he'd assassinate some clan's genius,

tomorrow some sect's rising star.

Their methods were utterly incompatible with Chen Xin's principles—

jarring and dissonant in every way.

With this in mind, Yunxiao chuckled and said:

"Haha, Sect Leader Ning, Sword Douluo."

"Escorting you out of Heaven Dou City won't delay me at all."

"Besides, it'll be quick."

"Just a blink, really."

As he spoke, Yunxiao began channeling his Soul Power.

Then, calmly:

"Elf King, Sixth Soul Skill—"

"Space Control: Space Displacement."

—Whoosh!

With the activation of his Sixth Soul Skill,

Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin vanished on the spot.

Witnessing this, Su Xiaoli's jaw dropped slightly.

"Clan… Clan Leader."

"How did you even—?"

As the Six-Winged Space Elf King, she understood the sheer mastery behind this.

To silently execute a spatial Soul Skill—

or displace a Soul Master of higher rank without resistance—

was an unimaginable feat.

At the very least, she couldn't achieve this level of skill yet.

Hearing Su Xiaoli's question, Yunxiao smiled faintly.

"Xiao Li, I didn't actually teleport them away."

"I merely swapped their spatial positions."

"Swapped spatial positions?"

Upon hearing Yunxiao's explanation, Su Xiaoli cast him a curious glance.
