Douluo's coffin Douluo

Soto City is the Forest of Death and the Hermit Academy.

In the morning, the light pierces the gray and is as slender as the scissors cut through the night and dawn, cutting a hole of light in the sky, heralding the arrival of a new day.

It is a simple building, with ivy on the attic and branches climbing up the building. The floating windows are full of dew, and the green branches and leaves penetrate into the corner of the window, accompanied by the breeze blowing through, swaying in the room, giving off the bright and early morning breath.

Gretel was sitting on a thick leather chair when she was blown into the window. The breeze blew across her cheeks and she woke up slightly. Then she leaned back a little and squinted for a while before sitting up and closing the desk with a stack of thick notes.

"Are you awake? Let's have breakfast first."

The door opened from the outside and a beautiful, middle-aged woman came in holding a silver plate in her hand.

She looked to be in her thirties, but she exuded the air of a mature woman. She had long brown hair and a well-fitting shawl, and her graceful figure was highlighted by her figure. She walked up and put down the silver tray with a smile.

There are two pieces of buttered bread sandwiched between a sausage and a piece of dry cheese. A silver fork is placed next to it, which shines attractively.

Gretel smiled happily, briefly washed up, and kissed the woman gently on her cheek. Then she sat back in the chair, poured a glass of fine wine, and pushed the red wine to the woman.

"You eat first, Sonia, I'm going to see an old friend and I may come back in two days."

"friend?"

Being called Sonia, the woman looked surprised and then smiled.

"I thought you didn't have any other friends besides here."

Gretel shook her head and smiled, then put it on her body. She straightened her dark gold coat, which looked slightly sloppy, and walked out the door with her broken hair.

"He is Jiang Muyun. He asked me to go to the Soto Spirit Fighting Arena. He is a typical guy. He comes to me for every issue but is too lazy to chat with me when nothing happens."

"I see, then be careful on the road."

Sonia nodded and smiled and said, "Even if you are present in the Soto Spirit Fighting Arena, it is best to keep a low profile in the territory. After all, there is a possibility of a mixture of fish and snakes there, and everyone owns it."

"Understood, I'm leaving. It's up to you to take care of yourself these days. Contact us."

Gretel pushed out the door and was walking in the attic corridor when she happened to encounter a squirming body on the window sill. The crab beetle looked a bit like a crab. Only the crab shell was slightly transparent and it was crawling gently.

Gretel picked up the crab beetle with two fingers and placed it on her tongue buds habitually, as if she was tasting the most delicious food in the world, and started chewing the food.

"The ten-year soul beast, the crab beetle tastes good, but it's a pity that it can't fill your stomach."

Gretel licked the corner of her mouth and then stretched out her index finger to wipe the corner of her mouth. There was a trace of yellow stain before she turned around and left.

Gretel blew a whistle when she walked out of the attic, and the next moment it was emerald color. She spread her wings and flew high in the forest. The vulture suddenly rushed out and landed in front of him very obediently.

"Let's go and meet an old friend."

Gretel sat on it and stroked the vulture, patting its brown feathers with her head. Then, one person and one vulture spread across the dead forest, and there was a cold, green sea below.

Price hotel.

Jiang Li got up sleepily and checked the time. He slept until three o'clock in the morning again, one day.

Not only did he have to participate in the individual competition today, but he also had to team up with Jiang Po to play in a duo, which made him very... unhappy just thinking about it!

Who knows what tricks his cheap father is thinking of to trick him.

After simply washing up and having breakfast, he found that Jiang Po had left the hotel at some point and seemed to have gone to the Soto Grand Soul Fighting Arena.

Soto Battlefield.

Jiang Po sat in the VIP room, leaning back in the easy chair, shaking a glass of red wine in his hand, and looking through the window sill at the fierce battles happening everywhere.

There are special windows, which can scatter the outside light and scatter the outside light. People inside the VIP room can only see the blurred interior through the window, and cannot get a glimpse of the colorful shadows inside.

"Gretel is really late again. He is a typical person."

Jiang Po put down the red wine glass, lay down comfortably on the easy chair, and changed his sitting position.

"Jiang Muyun, I am here for you, and the privilege of being late is only for you."

"Creak!" Jiang Po's voice had just finished when the door opened from the outside and Gretel, dressed in a black coat, had already walked in and took off the mask on her face.

He has a majestic figure, black hair, and a black coat that clings tightly to his body. He has two extremely long lips and mustache, and his beards are long and straight. They stretch to both sides and become more and more fragmented until only the tip remains. A thin golden thread makes it impossible to see the end clearly.

These two beards play an important role on the face, suppressing the corners of the mouth, making the face look like the cheeks are drooping, and marking a drooping crease for the lips.

As long as he stood there, he had a natural look all over his body. His strong aura was accompanied by a calm charm that belonged to an adult man.

"sit down."

Jiang Po was stunned, then chuckled, crossed his legs, and pointed to the easy chair opposite him.

"Jiang Muyun, I am here, and the territory belongs to you, so you are so rude!"

Gretel took off her head, the duck-billed black patent leather hat, put it and the mask on the table, then sat down, poured herself a glass of red wine, took a gentle sip, and breathed a sigh of relief.

Jiang Po didn't care, he just shrugged and looked at Gretel up and down and smiled.

"It's been 14 years since we saw each other, but you don't seem to have changed at all like the big brother."

"Stop it, you are a little worse than me."

Hearing that sound, it was Gretel who shook the wine glass, paused slightly with her hands, then sat upright and looked at him carefully, showing amusement and smiling.

"Tell me, Jiang Muyun came to see me for something and asked me to wipe your ass?"

"I changed my name a long time ago because I don't call him by this name anymore. I call him Jiang Po because it is simple and easy to remember."

Jiang Po smiled bitterly and said again.

"This time I came here to do something about my son..."

Then Jiang Po gave a rough description of him, and his plan was simply to entrust Jiang Li to him and let him take care of him for a period of time.

"Oh? So he is your son?"

Gretel was slightly surprised and looked at him as if she had heard something strange.

"Nonsense, am I still going to be single for the rest of my life? After all, it's you and Sonia, your child is older than Jiang Li!"

Jiang Po laughed, but found that the light in Gretel's eyes suddenly became dim, and the smile at the corner of her mouth disappeared silently.

After a moment of silence, Gretel shook her head, painful memories flashed across her eyes, and in the light was a hand holding her forehead.

"What's wrong is that the child was not born that year or died in infancy, so let's not mention it..."

"Oh yes."

Jiang Po nodded silently and quickly changed the subject without asking any more questions.

"By the way, in addition to this matter, you can arrange a duo for me and Jiang Li. The team is called the Broken Duo. He and I will participate in a two-on-two spirit fight together."

Gretel was stunned when she heard what he said and chuckled.

"Huh? Are you kidding me? Old man, you are a diamond fighting spirit, and the boss is taking Jiang Li to fight the novice brother?"

"Oh, don't worry. I won't expose my strength. Just go and handle it. If something happens, I'll take care of it myself." Jiang Po waved his hand nonchalantly.

"Hehe, that's easy to say. I haven't wiped your butt for you every time. No wonder you came to me. I'm the only one who can help you with this matter."

Gretel shook her head and smiled, stood up, put on her mask, then opened the door and walked out.

Soon Gretel found the staff who directly authorized him to apply for a duo fighting spirit badge with the word "broken" on it.

He had just turned around after taking the badge and saw the fighting spirit section. A young man walked out of the rest area and his eyes were fixed on him.

From this young man, he seemed to see the shadow of Jiang Po when he was young.

"Boy, you must have Jiang Li."

Gretel walked over to stop him and looked at him with doubts on her face, but Jiang Li smiled.

"My name is Gretel."

"...Yes, uncle?"

Jiang Li hesitated for a moment and stared at the tall man in front of him with wide eyes. The man remembered that Jiang Po asked him to address Gretel.

Gretel was stunned for a moment, and it seemed like it took her a long time to react before she patted him hard and nodded on her shoulder.

"I have Gretel, your father Jiang... Po, and my friend is your boy. You call me uncle because your father told you, right?"

"Well, that's right."

Jiang Li looked at Gretel up and down, and was very surprised. He had his cheap dad here, his old friend was from the Hermit Academy, and Gretel was the dean.
