Chapter Forty-Eight: The Enemy Comes to the Door

The night is as cool as water,

The bright moon hangs high,

The silver moonlight sprinkled on the earth,

Envelop the entire city of Soto in a blanket of silver.

Xu Ran walked out of the Fighting Soul Hall under the guidance of a Fighting Soul Arena attendant, he moved his nose, and felt that the air around him seemed to become a little different from before.

There was a faint scent in the air, a somewhat pungent scent, not like a natural fragrance, but more like the smell of some cheap perfume.

Standing at the door of the hall and looking from a distance, I saw a black shadow half-leaning on the corner of the wall at the mouth of an alley not far away.

It is not difficult to judge by the moonlight that this should be a man, more than one meter eight tall, slender body, because he has kept his head down, and his vision is too poor at night, his face cannot be seen clearly.

Xu Ran took a few steps forward and stopped thirty meters away from the strange man.

He was curious,

But it's more about vigilance.

Seeing Xu Ran's arrival, the strange man was still motionless, as if he was asleep.

Neither of them spoke first, and time passed slowly in an oppressive silence.

Take the initiative to find yourself but don't speak?

Seeing the strange man's abnormal behavior, Xu Ran frowned, ready to ask.

Who knew that before he could speak, he suddenly found that his body was unconsciously out of control.

My heartbeat was normal and my breathing was steady, but I couldn't move even a finger or even roll my eyes.

This made him stunned for a while.

This is not the first time he has encountered this feeling, not long ago in the Li family was affected by Xia Mingfeng's Xiao Sheng, which made his movements sluggish, and he almost suffered a big loss.

Compared to the last time, this time it is more serious.

Not only did this energy that control itself come without warning, but it is not even clear how it came, and he was taken away control of his body by others in a daze.

Xu Ran tried to resist, and his body trembled slightly, but then his consciousness suddenly sank rapidly, as if sinking into boundless darkness, and he could only watch as a blurry mass was taking over his body.

Seeing Xu Ran's demeanor and movements in his eyes, the strange man moved, he hooked his hand at Xu Ran, turned around and walked into the alley on the side.

As the strange man walked into the alley, Xu Ran's body also followed under the control of some kind of force, his arms and legs mechanically swayed back and forth, looking like a wooden doll, indescribably weird.

Going all the way down to the innermost part of the alley, the two stopped at the same time, one after the other.

The strange man turned around slowly, with a faint smile on his face, although this smile looked unusually elegant and easy-going, but the cold moonlight made his face look a little pale.

"Xu Ran, a native of the Holy Soul Village, was adopted by the village elder Jack since he was a child, the first six years were unremarkable, but at the age of six, he awakened a top-level martial soul similar to a dragon stick, and then entered the Noah Forest alone to practice, and now he is twelve years old, with four 10,000-year soul rings, and his soul power is guaranteed to be level 40, he is the youngest soul sect in the history of the Douluo Continent."

"But it's a pity that such a dazzling genius is going to die, and at his own hands."

The strange man walked up to Xu Ran and reached out to hand out a weapon similar to a mace.

The weapon was only thirty centimeters long and about five centimeters in diameter, made of some unknown metal.

The lower part looks very smooth, carved with circles of patterns,

The upper part was covered with dense spikes, glistening in the moonlight.

"Child, haven't you ever seen such a fun thing, uncle told you, it's called a thorn cow. Whether it's in your mouth or someone else, the experience is absolutely incomparably beautiful and will make you want to die. Although I usually use it for women, but seeing that you are so handsome, and you have fine skin and tender meat, what if you ...... Hey. ”

As he spoke, the man's expression gradually became a little hideous.

If he was dressed in white and looked like a scholar before,

At that moment, the bruised neck and a pair of extremely bulging eyes were full of madness and evil, like a man-eating demon.

Because the distance between the two had been far away before, and now that the other party approached Xu Ran, he saw the man's appearance clearly, it was the man in white who had made him suspicious in the restaurant before.

At this moment, the eight soul rings of white, yellow, purple, black, black and black on the man's body rhythmically moved up and down regularly, and the black light of the sixth soul ring was completely restrained under the cover of the night.

At the same time, under his white robe, six or seven thick vines only showed a sharp horn, about a dozen centimeters, and the rest were all hidden in the hem.

Each vine has a circular hole at the tip, and it is constantly spewing out some powder of unknown color.

Seeing this, Xu Ran immediately understood, no wonder he would unconsciously catch the other party's Dao, it turned out to be because of these powders, presumably this is also the origin of those strange fragrances in the air.

It seems that the other party has already laid out the game in order to deal with himself, and he is too young to jump in without thinking too much.

Although he was already relatively cautious, he always kept a distance of more than thirty meters from the other party, but he really didn't expect the other party to attack through the smell, and it was on a completely open street.

This made him defenseless at all, after all, he couldn't keep pinching his nose and not breathing.

After laughing to himself, the man gently brushed Xu Ran's cheek with his fingers, and his expression instantly became gentle as water.

"Son, my stupid brother died at your hands, because he was not as good as others, and he was to blame, I have nothing to say about this."

"But as his half-brother, I still have to avenge him, after all, I have killed countless people in my life, my heart is like iron, my blood is like ice, if I completely abandon my family affection, I will really be completely reduced to a beast who only knows how to kill."

"But don't worry, the pain will only last for a short time, and it will pass soon."

When the man's words fell, Xu Ran's arm trembled and raised, firmly catching the "thorn cow" in the man's hand.

"Eat it."

The man's voice was a little excited, and he rubbed his hands together, his eyes full of anticipation.

Xu Ran watched as he personally handed the thorn cow to his mouth, and the top few sharp spikes had already pierced his lips, accompanied by a stinging pain, and a few drops of blood flowed down the corners of his mouth.

At this time, Xu Ran frantically shouted the purple jade pendant in the depths of his heart, wanting to get its help.

But his pleas were like a stone in the sea, and no matter how much he shouted, he could not get a response.

"Hurry up, swallow it whole in my mouth!"

"Haha, hahaha...... Who?! Who's sneaking around over there, get out of here! ”

The man shouted loudly, but suddenly stopped going crazy, his eyes were like a poisonous snake waiting for an opportunity, and he raised his head and stared at somewhere on the edge of the roof.

Over there

A black-robed man wearing a hat stood under the moon.

A black cloak fluttered slowly behind his back.

In his hand, he held a large black hammer covered in patterns......
