Chapter 108 Crown Prince of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan
Chapter 108 Crown Prince of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan
Xiao Yan was cultivating his soul power while sitting cross-legged. He planned to take Tang San to Sunset Forest today because Dugu Yan had awkwardly sent him a message yesterday evening, saying that her grandfather would take some time to see him today.
Xiao Yan, who was used to waking up early, would not waste a single second of cultivation time. Although he had not yet broken through the bottleneck of level 40, it did not prevent him from refining his soul power and physical body in one go. In this way, when Xiao Yan broke through, he would also have a considerable increase in soul power.
The rolling beast on his head let out a soft moan, and Xiao Yan opened his eyes. Without needing to say anything, he knew that the old monster had arrived.
His gaze met that of Dugu Bo, who was gently pushing the door open and entering. Dugu Bo was a little embarrassed. He saw that Xiao Yan was cultivating his soul power, so he didn't rush to disturb him. Moreover, in his eyes, his movements were so subtle that he didn't even notice the wind. He didn't know how this little monster had discovered him coming in.
"Old monster, it's been a long time." Xiao Yan jumped off the bed and looked at the newcomer.
The old man with dark green hair coughed, feigning seriousness, and then sat down at Xiao Yan's table without any hesitation, picking up his teapot.
"Tsk, little monster, you're awake so early, why won't you even give this old man a bowl of hot tea?"
"There's hot water in the boiler room. Didn't you think to take care of it on your way here?" Xiao Yan rolled his eyes in annoyance and patted the rolling beast on his head with his right hand.
At that moment, the Digivice at his waist also emitted light, and then Agumon evolved into the form of Agumon, spitting out a small amount of flames towards the bottom of Xiao Yan's teapot.
"No matter how many times I look at it, your martial soul is very strange. If we're talking about its abnormal ability to change form, it can also change back based on its own consumption. Moreover, the power to control fire is probably not as good as some fire attribute soul saints."
Actually, Dugu Bo was just too inexperienced. A martial soul like Agumon, which only requires Xiao Yan's will to control the temperature of the flames, is something even a Title Douluo might not be able to match. After all, when a soul master cultivates, they pursue damage more than anything else. Who cares about all those other miscellaneous things?
However, after the Rolling Ball Beast awakened, it had been cultivating with Xiao Yan. Moreover, Xiao Yan had been consciously or unconsciously pushing its own control over fire, which led to its current level. After all, in Xiao Yan's view, these Soul Masters were only pursuing power. Only when he was a Soul Venerable did he worry about burning people to ashes. After all, there was the precedent of those mercenaries in the Northern Territory. It was better to be cautious when returning to the territory of the Heaven Dou Empire.
"After all, my Agumon is very smart." Xiao Yan said, patting his head. Agumon snuggled into Xiao Yan's arms, enjoying the attention. As the only martial soul with independent intelligence, Agumon had been cooped up by Xiao Yan's frequent trips away. He couldn't say what he wanted to say. In comparison, Agumon probably still preferred the time he spent in Notting City.
"Sigh." Dugu Bo looked at Xiao Yan and sighed.
"The moment I heard the news, I thought of taking you to Notting City. I was worried that you wouldn't be able to control yourself. But the royal family from Tiandou also had something to discuss with me, so I asked Qin Ming to come and comfort you."
It turns out that the information Qin Ming received that day was not from the three education commissioners, but was actually provided by Dugu Bo.
"I can't believe you and that kid Qin Ming were attacked by the Star Luo Empire again on the road. Qin Ming is really a Soul Emperor, how could they let them get away? Luckily you're alright, otherwise I would definitely make things difficult for the Star Luo royal family."
As Dugu Bo spoke, his eyes gleamed, clearly indicating his confidence in doing so.
With Xiao Yan's help, Yan Yan's poisoning was greatly alleviated, and her granddaughter's problem was also solved. Moreover, with the help of the immortal herbs selected by Xiao Yan, Yan Yan's entire constitution underwent a transformation under the nourishment of the immortal herbs. Although those immortal herbs were all his own, without Xiao Yan, Dugu Bo probably would never have touched them in his entire life. Who knows if those seemingly beautiful plants were actually suitable?
"Alright, old monster, it's good that you have the intention, but I asked Dugu Yan to look for you a few days ago, how come you've been busy until today?" Xiao Yan was puzzled.
Dugu Bo's expression was somewhat strange, clearly indicating that he had something difficult to say: "It's still about the Heavenly Dou Royal Family. After all, you're an outsider now. It's not that I don't want to tell you, but some things are better left unsaid. However, given our friendship, if you really want to know, I can tell you. But, you'll have to give me one of those things you sent to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School as well."
"Never mind then, you can deal with it yourself. It's just a Zhuge Divine Crossbow, you're thinking of getting one for your granddaughter again? When I see that mistress later, I'll make him pay for one for you." Dugu Bo must have been a little itchy to buy it after seeing what he had given Ning Fengzhi that day.
Xiao Yan said casually, "Things that even the old monster is unwilling to say directly are mostly not good news, but in his memory, Emperor Xue Ye was clearly not troubled by the poison. So, in the current timeline, what could the Heaven Dou royal family possibly need to entrust to Dugu Bo?"
I had just met Xue Qinghe a while ago, and judging from his expression, he obviously didn't know about what Dugu Bo was talking about. So it could only be that Prince Xue Xing and Xue Beng were up to something. But right now, Emperor Xue Ye was unharmed, and the Heaven Dou Empire didn't have a titled Guardian Douluo. What kind of tricks could they possibly pull?
"You said it yourself, so remember to give it to me later." Dugu Bo wasn't afraid that Xiao Yan would renege on his promise, but he had a kind of friendship with Xiao Yan despite their age difference, so he spoke naturally. "The information I gathered for you wasn't in vain."
"Oh? So, besides working for Tiandou, you old monster also have some personal agendas to pursue?"
"Just a side note." Dugu Bo revealed a sly smile. "The person who attacked you was assigned by the Third Prince of the Star Luo Empire. I heard his name is Dai Mubai. You should know him. He's the White Tiger Martial Soul Master you fought with at Shrek Academy that day."
That's it?
Xiao Yan's expression was somewhat speechless. He had already figured these things out himself, but with Dugu Bo's confirmation, it was now a certainty.
"Moreover, those two Soul Kings disappeared from this continent after their assassination attempt failed. Not only within the Heavenly Dou Empire, but even the people of the Star Luo Empire cannot find them." As he said this, Dugu Bo looked at Xiao Yan with a meaningful gaze.
"Why are you looking at me? I only let Agumon set them off with fire that day. It can't be that they couldn't extinguish the fire of my martial spirit and were burned alive, right?"
Dugu Bo shook his head: "You're just a Soul Venerable. It's already quite impressive that you managed to injure two Soul Kings, and you even thought about killing them. Besides, if they had really been burned alive by your ultimate fire, they would have left behind charred corpses, but right now they've vanished without a trace. So now there's some very bad news coming out about you. It's been confirmed that you have an extremely powerful Soul Master protecting you, and it might even be the illegitimate son of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan Master."
