People are writing diaries in Douluo, Bibi Dong is crazy about it

Chapter 221: Obtaining the Shura Sword

Tang Chen's eyes suddenly widened. He couldn't comprehend how Zhao Ling knew about Poseidon. Furthermore, Zhao Ling mentioned that Bo Saixi had borne his child—how could that be possible? Bo Saixi was not that kind of woman... was she?

As Tang Chen's mind descended into chaos, the Canglan Sword Technique struck him, obliterating him into nothingness. No trace of him remained.

The corners of Zhao Ling's mouth lifted slightly in satisfaction. Tang Chen was now completely gone. No one would ever snatch Xi'er from him again. Even the Shura Sword was now his. His mood was extraordinarily good.

After handling Tang Chen, Zhao Ling approached the Shura Sword and grasped it, intent on determining whether any evil remnants of the Sixth Lord Rakshasa still lingered within it.

Holding the Shura Sword, Zhao Ling sensed no such presence. His previous concerns had been unfounded; the Rakshasa God had not tampered with the weapon.

This aligned with the original novel's plot: Tang Chen had been deceived by the Rakshasa God during his eighth test, leading to his possession by the blood-red nine-headed bat king.

Still, caution was always wise. As the saying goes, "Better safe than sorry."

With no issues detected in the Shura Sword, Zhao Ling decided to give it to Dong'er to assist her with the divine inheritance test.

Zhao Ling pulled the Shura Sword from the ground, sheathed it, and handed it to Bibi Dong.

"Dong'er, this sword is the key to inheriting the Shura God's throne. Drip your blood onto it to acknowledge it as your master, and you can begin the divine inheritance process."

Bibi Dong nodded, pricked her fingertip, and let a drop of her blood fall onto the Shura Sword.

Since Tang Chen had perished, the Shura Sword was now without a master. Her blood was quickly absorbed, and the Shura Sword officially recognized her as its new master.

Once the Shura Sword acknowledged her, Bibi Dong closed her eyes, seemingly sensing something. Zhao Ling stood silently beside her, not disturbing her meditation.

Meanwhile, Shura God, the enforcer of Douluo God Realm's laws, was overseeing divine matters when he suddenly sensed that the Shura Sword had changed hands.

The previous inheritor of the throne had perished, leaving him perplexed. How could such an unexpected change occur during the eighth test?

However, the new inheritor appeared far more talented than the last. For Shura God, the identity of the inheritor was irrelevant; his only concern was that the throne was passed on quickly.

Thus, he dismissed the need to visit the Douluo Mortal Realm, trusting that the divine consciousness embedded in the Shura Sword would handle matters.

When Bibi Dong reopened her eyes, she smiled at Zhao Ling.

"Husband, let's return home," she said.

"Yes," Zhao Ling agreed, leading her out of the Killing King's palace, where they encountered the Messenger of Killing.

The Messenger of Killing was visibly shocked to see the slain King of Slaughter. As Zhao Ling and Bibi Dong prepared to leave, the Messenger blocked their path.

"You can't just leave like this," she protested. "With the King of Slaughter gone, the City of Slaughter could descend into chaos, splitting into factions and unleashing chaos across the Douluo Continent. The city exists to contain the most vile and wicked individuals in Douluo. Without the King's control, this continent could face endless strife."

Zhao Ling responded without looking at her.

"Haha, aren't you overthinking this? The City of Slaughter was originally created as a place for divine inheritance by a god of the God Realm. It was only later corrupted by a rival god into this evil, bloody place.

"The King of Slaughter has existed for only a few decades, yet this city has stood for over a thousand years. You mean to tell me that its existence now hinges on the King of Slaughter?"

The Messenger of Killing opened her mouth to retort but fell silent. How could Zhao Ling, an outsider, know the City's secrets better than she?

She realized his words were likely true. Before the King of Slaughter's reign, the City was ruled by enforcers. Though not as powerful as the King, they were formidable compared to other inhabitants and maintained order.

The Messenger's real motive for stopping Zhao Ling was personal. As the King's most trusted aide, she enjoyed a privileged status. With his death, her position held no meaning. She hoped Zhao Ling would assume the title of King of Slaughter, even nominally.

But Zhao Ling had no such intentions. He only came to the City to help Dong'er obtain the Killing Domain and seize the divine inheritance. He had no desire to stay.

Ignoring the Messenger, Zhao Ling and Bibi Dong began their journey back.

On their way, they encountered the highest-ranking law enforcers of the City of Slaughter, who sought to stop them. However, the Messenger intervened, allowing them to leave.

A Titled Douluo among the enforcers questioned the Messenger's actions. She silenced him with a sharp glance.

"Even the King fell at his hands. Do you think you stand a chance?"

Her words sent shockwaves through the enforcers. Was it possible? The all-powerful King of Slaughter defeated?

The Messenger, exuding a formidable aura, declared, "Anyone who dares disrupt the City's order will be punished without mercy!"

Her presence, stronger than the Titled Douluo's, was a stark reminder of her strength. Only someone of her caliber could serve as the King's right hand in such a brutal place.
