Douluo Dalu: The Legend of Heavenly Ruler

--- Chapter 195 ---

"Welcome to Slaughter City!"

Yunlong slowly moved his gaze to the woman and noticed the skies had weirdly changed from bright blue to dusky black.

"This..." Yunlong walked off his seat and moved to the front door.

The woman smiled at him and was about to offer Yunlong something, but he casually walked past her like she was air.

"The surroundings. No, the entire city was changing..." Yunlong walked out of the bar.

Yunlong saw his surroundings, which were quiet before and now have become full of people. They have horrible killing intent, and each of them had at least killed a human once.

Clak! Clak! Clak!

"Hoo...? A new person has arrived here, huh."

"Your killing intent isn't bad, but it lacks something."

Yunlong turned around when he heard a cold man's voice and noticed a domineering figure standing behind him.

"You are?" Yunlong asked, which caused the man to grin viciously for some reason.

A man in black armor stood in front of him while a black warhorse also stood beside him. He had a pressure of a titled douluo, which was weird because it wasn't restricted here.

"I'm Dread Knight Scoot." The man coldly responded while taking a lance from his warhorse.

He pointed the lance at Yunlong and asked, "Then, who are you a newcomer?"

Yunlong casually shrugged his shoulders and replied, "Hmm, you can call me batman."

"Batman?"

"I've never heard such a name before." The dread knight commented with a frown.

"Well, whatever." He continued. "Let's see what kind of person you are."

Clank!

Yunlong suddenly took out his old wooden katana and clashed with the incoming lance.

"Oh? This hardening wasn't spirit skill?" The dread knight commented while looking at Yunlong's wooden sword, which shone in black gleam.

Yunlong's sharingan quickly was activated, and they stared at each other while intense killing intent clashed in the silence of the shadowy city.

Crack! BOOM!

The ground beneath them cracked because their heavy killing intents actually were added with their personal's pressure.

"Those eyes, not bad..." The dread knight laughed while launching a quick thrust with his lance.

Yunlong calmly raised his hand and caught the incoming lance without worry.

Bam!

"You're interesting, but this mere strength isn't enough to challenge me." The dread knight pushed his lance slightly and thrust Yunlong onto a building, which immediately collapsed.

Boom!

The dread knight drew his lance back and glanced at the collapsed building with a calm expression. "Not bad... See you later, newcomer."

He rode his warhorse and moved away from the area, leaving Yunlong alone in a half-destroyed building.

Kaguya hurriedly moved to Yunlong and found him somehow smiling inside of the half-destroyed building.

"Are you okay?" Kaguya asked with a worried expression.

Yunlong shook his head slightly and casually answered, "I'm okay. He didn't even scratch me."

Yunlong gradually moved his gaze to the dark road where the dread knight had disappeared. "He could launch me with pure physical technique." He continued.

Yunlong didn't sense the dread knight's uses of spirit energy, which means that man's physical strength was better than average titled douluo.

He had expected the people in this city could surprise him, but to think it would be this extraordinary.

"How bizarre." Yunlong's eyes shone with crimson gleam.

The woman Yunlong ignored before suddenly approached them and shouted, "Are you crazy? Do you know who you fought before!"

"He's the Dread Knight Scoot, The law enforcer of this city. You're lucky he didn't kill you there." She firmly continued.

"Is that so?" Yunlong wasn't interested in this woman's remarks and naturally stared into her eyes.

The woman's body becomes stiff while her eyes become dull. "Okay, thanks." Yunlong quickly received some information from her.

Kaguya weirdly stared at the woman and asked, "What are you doing to her."

"Information gathering." Yunlong bluntly responded. "Well, It's just a simple illusion."

"I see..." Kaguya nodded her head in consent.

Yunlong swept off the dust from his clothes and stretched his neck a little because this woman really had a lot of information, but it was worth it.

"Let's go. I know what place to visit next." Yunlong slowly pulled Kaguya's hand.

"Mhm." Kaguya peacefully followed him.

They slowly walked past a few gates and arrived at a huge building, which suddenly echoed with loud cheers.

"This place is..?" Kaguya curiously asked.

"It's the Hell Slaughter Arena." Yunlong calmly answered while feeling a powerful presence inside of the arena.

Yunlong had a guess, but he should enter this place if he wants to confirm it, which is kind of risky.

The guards in front of Hell Slaughter Arena suddenly stopped them. "You should pay two bloody marys if you want to enter." They firmly said.

Yunlong pondered for a moment and didn't have much choice but to draw them into the illusion world.

"There." Yunlong confidently threw thin air at them, which caused the guards to smile.

Yunlong and Kaguya walked past the guards and entered the building, which is weird because the blood stench here was extremely thick.

As they walked into audience seats, a gruesome scene entered their views.

Ten People were moving toward each other with an intent to kill, they couldn't use their spirit skills, but they could increase their physical strength using spirit energy.

As they fought each other for hours, finally, only one person was standing on the stage. The person's condition is horrible, his body is full of injuries, but everyone in the arena could see a grin on his face.

"I won!" He shouted happily.

"Hmm..." A person's groan echoed in the arena.

Yunlong quickly looked at a particular place in the arena, which was a throne room.

A tall silhouette calmly sat in the giant chair. Its appearance couldn't be seen clearly in the darkness, but it was only apparent this person was slim.

However, it should be a man because Yunlong knew this person was.

'Tang Chen.' Yunlong thought while looking at the person who sat in the shadow.

"You...?" The person suddenly pointed his finger at Yunlong.

"Come to Arena."

Everyone immediately moved their gazes onto Yunlong and saw him awkwardly standing there.

"Hey, what are you waiting for?" The people shouted at him.

"Do you want to anger The Slaughter King!?"

Yunlong released a sigh and casually looked at them with a cold gaze, which shut their mouths.

"You want me to enter the arena?" Yunlong calmly asked while looking at the Slaughter King.

"Yes..? Do you want to oppose my order?" The Slaughter King coldly returned, which caused Yunlong to chuckle.

Yunlong shook his head and answered, "Not really. Why don't we spice things up."

"The norm in this arena was ten people entered the death battle, but since you ordered me, why don't you let 100 people fight me?"

"Are you crazy?"

"What a madman!"

"Do you really think you could kill 99 people at once?"

The audience ridiculed Yunlong with their words, which caused Kaguya to frown.

'These people...' Kaguya's eyes shone with a dim white light.

The slaughter king was quiet for a second, but he quickly opened his mouth. "Why should I agree with you?"

"Why should you agree with me?" Yunlong smiled. "Because I know your secret."

He moved his mouth slightly to say something, and the slaughter king immediately frowned because he could easily read what this young man said.

"You..." The slaughter king's voice suddenly became cold. "Fine, let's see how you survive this."

"What?!"

"Eh?"

Everyone was shocked by his sudden statement, and they quickly looked at Yunlong, wondering what he just said to the slaughter king.

"What are you guys doing?" Yunlong suddenly appeared in the arena and confidently glanced at the audience.

"Do you want me to wait the entire day?"
