Douluo Dalu: A Reincarnated Teen's Pathway To Ascension 21 Keeping An Angry Bird Away From Catapult!

Without wasting time, the prince jumped again to where Ryan was, trying to get a hold of him. However, due to his training in the mental realm, his body had gotten extremely tough and agile. Hence, the prince's speed was inadequate to catch him. Ryan knew that if he was caught, he'd be in for a really hard time, as the power difference between him and Xinghe was not small. From him, Ryan could feel the aura of a spirit elder rising up. He also knew that Seraphim spirit holders awaken with an inner spirit power of 20. 'But still, to cultivate more than 10 ranks in just around 5 years, this girl must have had a lot of resources put into her training by the spirit hall', Ryan internally exclaimed.

Although she was superior to him in spirit power, she still couldn't even touch his hair, which further infuriated her. She could see his Rank 10 spirit power quite clearly. 'This guy does not even have spirit rings. Why is he so fast?!', the prince thought with frustration.

"I a.s.sume these actions confirm my hypothesis then? I mean, if it wasn't true, you wouldn't be trying to kill me as soon as possible now, would you?", Ryan asked with a sneer on his face. Xinghe didn't say anything back. Instead, the prince launched himself towards him again, only to fail as Ryan jumped away. "How much do you know? And how do you know?", Xinghe asked Ryan with a cold expression.

"Well, let's just say about everything. You are not the best spy I've ever seen", replied Ryan coolly. Of course he'd have seen better spies. He was a die-hard fan of James Bond back on Earth. As he said this, Xinghe's expression turned into that of fury. "You must die!!!!!", the prince shouted as his body vanished again. "And you shall not pa.s.s!!!!!! Wait, wrong dialogue. Ah, I'm getting too old for this quoting stuff right now. Anyway, Xue, you cant harm me", Ryan said with a mischievous smile on his face, as he evaded her (cute little) 'claws' again. "And why is that?!", Xinghe was burning with frustration and fury. "Because, little Xue, I'm just soooo good at getting away with everything", Ryan laughed lightly after after saying this and winking at Xinghe. "Don't call me Xue!" Xinghe jumped to attack him again, but was skillfully evaded by Ryan once more. "Awww.... Angry girls are so cuuute" (power stones from anybody who agrees), Ryan said as he continued to make fun of his opponent, "Now just be a good girl and show me your real face

Now completely humiliated and frustrated that she could not take on a simple spirit scholar, she was angry beyond words. "Fine. I'll show you my real form as a reward for figuring out who I am. And then I'll kill you!!!!!", Xinghe hissed as he started tearing off the disguise (disguise guys, doesn't always mean cloth. So she was not stripping. I dont make 11 year olds strip). To Ryan it looked something like a scene out of a 'Mission Impossible' movie. She was tearing off a completed face mask. Whether it was made from spirit power or not, he didn't know. By the time Xinghe tore all the disguise off completely, he revealed a feminine face. It looked... Well, angelic.

She had snow white skin, blond hair and a slender phoenix eyes. All the features on her face was smooth, but also sharp. She was a beauty who could only be matched by someone with a cheat, like, Jin. He stood there for a moment, stunned. Although he had read the stories, Ryan had never imagined that she would look this breath-taking in real life. Well, that's reality for you. He realized that his jaw was hung open the entire time he was looking at her. Well, she looked 11 by DD standards. On Earth, she'd be around 16 or 17. So, can't blame him. He immediately closed his mouth. A smile slowly presented on his face. "Well, since you've been so kind, and I'm anyway gonna die, why not tell me why you were so interested in me and my sister. I mean, eating a lot is not exactly a skill someone would be proud of", Ryan asked the main question that he had done all this to get an answer for.

A smile of disdain appeared on Renxue's face as she said, "Although you eat quite a lot, neither of you are fat. That means all that energy is going somewhere. Hence, I presumed that you both must be strong. So I wanted to scout you both as potential members of spirit hall . But now that I see your spirit power, I stand corrected. Martial arts skills can only do so much in front of spirit power, hmph!. But I would like to personally inspect your sister myself" She said as she concluded, " Alright, no more talk. Now that you know all this, I will destroy you". As she finished talking, she released her spirit and activated her real guard. A silhouette of an angel appeared as two wings sprouted from Rexue's back. The entire alley was bathed in golden radiance. It was beautiful and divine. Ryan felt incredible pressure was.h.i.+ng over him. As he looked up with great strain, he could see different colors behind Renxue. As he focused his eyes, he recognized them as her spirit rings.

She floated in the air, with three spirit rings on her back, as she looked down on Ryan as if an angel looking down on humanity. deep Yellow, Purple, Purple. This was her configuration. Such monstrous strength! The scion of spirit hall herself deviated from the ideal spirit ring configuration they recommended to a normal spirit master. Well, that goes to say how special she is. "Hahahaha, now all your petty tricks are useless. You will die and I will make sure of that!", Renxue shouted at Ryan as her yellow spirit ring lit up. It released a spirit power explosion, putting more pressure on Ryan.

Ryan immediately coughed up some blood as he felt the pressure (If anyone's wondering why people cough up blood like that, I think its because some capillaries breaking due to the pressure). But in his mental realm, he felt a presence get stronger. The little chicken who usually minded his own d.a.m.n business no longer pecked on the ground. Instead, it was staring outwards, like looking towards seraphim. As more pressure attacked Ryan, his mental realm shook, and the look in the chicken's eyes turned more..... Interested. Also a bit angry, cuz, who likes earthquakes?

But as this happened, the aura released b the chicken increased. Ryan could feel a power welling up inside him. It came from near his spine. He knew that this was not from the bow. Hence, as G.o.d said to not manifest that spirit, he tried to suppress that power. But, he could not risk revealing his bow either, as she might know his father's spirit. Even if he disguised it, he didn't have any spirit skills yet! And all the other things he could do with the bow were going to be ineffective against a spirit elder with 3 rings. The monarch domain was his backup plan. However, in case she notices it and discusses it with someone, it could still come back to masticate him in the gluteals. Hence, his only option was to try to control the chicken's power as much as possible. But it wasn't proving to be that easy.

"Don't make me do this", Ryan said softly for Renxue to hear. He sweating like crazy due to all the effort expended to keep the chicken inside. "Don't make you do what, you lowly glutton?! You're just pathetic!", Renxue sneered at him as she insulted him, although in her mind she was disturbed by Ryan resisting her first spirit skill. Even though he heard it, Ryan was in no mood to counter as he was trying to prevent his beast spirit from manifesting. As he held on with all his will power for some time, he felt the minor physical changes caused to him by the chicken's flare up vanish. Now he only had the welled up power inside him. 'What is this? This feels like how it did when my bow spirit was awoke-'

Everything happened so fast that he did not have enough time to finish that thought. "Die!!!!!!", Renxue screamed as she released her second spirit skill, angelic descent, and the silhouette looming behind her materialized (well, more or less, it was still in ethereal form). It zoomed towards Ryan and and attacked him.

"BOOOOOOOOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!", A large explosion shook the city.........
