Chapter 124 - Chapter 124: Strange Martial Soul

Warm sunlight poured down, but the Girl in Black beside Kai subconsciously shielded her eyes. She dared not look directly at such sunlight, even though its touch on her skin was so warm.

She had lived in darkness and had never experienced sunlight.

She didn't even know it was called sunlight.

There was similar light in Slaughter City, but it was moonlight.

It was a blood-red moon in the sky, emitting a cold, violent aura.

"This is… the outside world…"

The Girl in Black gradually adapted to the daylight. She stared blankly at her surroundings. The air was no longer filled with the scent of blood, but with the fragrance of trees and flowers, and the pleasant chirping of birds.

"In Slaughter City, there's only the smell of blood and all sorts of vulgar sounds…"

Her voice trembled and choked up.

A clear tear fell, conspicuous on the ground.

"That's right, this is the outside world."

Kai's voice sounded beside her. He removed the Girl in Black's veil, looked at the somewhat flustered girl, and spoke again: "Outside, you no longer need this."

"Feel this world properly; it's actually very beautiful. Let's go; I'll take you to Spirit Hall."

..."Kai, this is…"

Zhu Zhuqing looked at Kai and the Girl in Black with some surprise, a hint of hostility flashing in her eyes. However, this hostility was not directed at the Girl in Black, but at… Kai.

"Uh, it's like this."

Kai explained to Zhu Zhuqing, who was somewhat surprised to hear it: "I didn't expect her to be so pitiful…"

Listening to what Kai said, Zhu Zhuqing was shocked.

She couldn't imagine what a person would become if they lived in such an environment from a young age.

She considered her own childhood to be very oppressive, but compared to the Girl in Black, her experiences seemed to be nothing at all.

"Living from a young age in a world full of blood and slaughter, without rules, without humanity, without emotion…"

"She is very strong."

Zhu Zhuqing didn't blame Kai for bringing back the Girl in Black; perhaps she had already prepared herself mentally.

She could sense that the feelings Ning Rongrong and Qian Renxue had for Kai seemed to exceed those of ordinary friends. But for her, as long as Kai had her in his heart, what did the rest matter?

Soon, Ning Rongrong and Hu Liena arrived.

They both heard about the Girl in Black's plight and felt sympathy, immediately striking up a conversation with her.

However, the Girl in Black, who had never experienced care from others, seemed flustered. Although she appeared indifferent in Slaughter City, at the end of the day, she was still just a teenage girl.

Living in darkness, she had no choice but to let darkness shroud her outward self.

But the Girl in Black also knew that the three girls held no ill will towards her, and she gradually adapted to their conversation, communicating with them… "Little Kai, your current strength astonishes me."

As soon as Bibi Dong saw Kai, before he could speak, she said to him.

"Huh?" Kai was stunned. Why would she say that?

Bibi Dong slowly said: "I followed you to Slaughter City. I was curious why you would return to Slaughter City, so I also witnessed your battle with the Slaughter King."

Kai suddenly understood.

His strength could no longer be hidden now.

"Actually, I really wanted to keep a low profile," Kai shrugged, quite helpless.

Bibi Dong smiled with relief: "Watching you grow step by step and acquire your current strength, as your teacher, I am very happy. Now I think I can confidently entrust Spirit Hall to your management."

"Why do you want to abdicate so early?" Kai looked at Bibi Dong with some confusion.

Bibi Dong sighed: "With your current strength, you already qualify to succeed as the Supreme Pontiff of Spirit Hall. In fact, Qian Daoliu and I have already reached a consensus, no matter how Spirit Hall develops."

"We will both support your decisions. I also know some of your ideas. I think only by entrusting Spirit Hall to you can you act boldly and confidently."

Kai was somewhat surprised. He indeed hadn't expected Bibi Dong and Qian Daoliu to reach an agreement so quickly, but this was good; at least it saved him a lot of trouble.

"The Slaughter King's strength is definitely not inferior to Qian Daoliu's. If you can defeat him, your strength is among the very few in the entire Douluo Continent."

When the Slaughter King was mentioned, Kai casually added: "That guy is Tang Chen, and he became like that because he was affected by the Rakshasa God's divine force."

Bibi Dong was somewhat shocked. She naturally knew about Tang Chen, but she hadn't expected that the Slaughter King was Tang Chen, and it was because of the Rakshasa God whose Legacy she was currently inheriting.

Kai's expression, however, became a bit more solemn at this moment: "Heh heh, Teacher, I know you are currently inheriting the Rakshasa God Position, but the Rakshasa God is an absolute Evil God. His divine force will gradually affect your mind, causing you to slowly lose yourself."

After hearing Kai's words, Bibi Dong let out a long sigh: "By the time I discovered this, it was already too late."

Kai smiled faintly: "Don't worry, it's just a Divinity Legacy. When the time comes, we'll just destroy it."

After talking with Bibi Dong for a while longer, Kai left… "Are you adapting to this place?" Kai returned to his residence. At this time, Zhu Zhuqing and the others were also there. Looking at the Girl in Black surrounded in the middle, Kai couldn't help but feel a little helpless.

Are they trying to give her social anxiety?

"Kai, we just asked her. She said she awakened her Martial Soul, but she has never applied a spirit ring."

Ning Rongrong walked over and said. Kai was puzzled by this; she awakened her Martial Soul but never applied a spirit ring?

The Slaughter King really did a good job.

But thinking about it from another perspective, she didn't even count as a Soul Master. If the Slaughter King hadn't protected her, she would probably have been targeted by that group of degenerates.

At that time, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"What Martial Soul did you awaken?" Kai asked curiously.

The Girl in Black shook her head: "I'm not quite sure, but I can release it for you to see. My Martial Soul is very strange. When I awakened it, even the Slaughter King warned me not to even think about applying a spirit ring to my Martial Soul."

"Hmm?"

Everyone was taken aback.

What kind of Martial Soul requires such caution?

Everyone came to an open space. As the Girl in Black released her Martial Soul, a surging black light immediately burst forth, and then the surroundings instantly darkened. Within that fallen black light, a figure emerged, like a fallen goddess reaching out from Hell, looking down on everyone.

"This… What kind of Martial Soul is this?" Kai was also stunned. He knew nothing about this Martial Soul..
