Chapter 149 Making a Deal with Xiao Wu
"You'll have to ask your son's teacher about that. It's ridiculous, really. A titled Douluo, he actually let his son go and become the apprentice of that old dragon's good-for-nothing son, a mere level 29 Great Soul Master. Now look what's happened, not only has his son not grown tall, but even his external soul bone has been taken away. A perfectly good innate genius with full soul power has been reduced to a dwarf. It's simply a pitiful sight."
A mocking smile appeared on Dugu Bo's face.
Hearing this, Tang Hao knew all too well that Yu Xiaogang, in order to show off his so-called theory, had made him take out his external soul bone to fight against others before it had fully fused with his body, thus exposing it and allowing someone to steal it while he was being chased by Chrysanthemum Ghost Douluo of the Spirit Hall.
Overwhelmed with anger and rage, his eyes suddenly turned bloodshot, and he began to pant heavily.
"Prison! Small! Anus!"
Tang Hao was gripped by unprecedented madness and rage. He spoke slowly and deliberately, and finally burst into the air, flying towards the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
Dugu Bo shook his head, feeling somewhat disappointed with this so-called Haotian Douluo.
Tang Hao, who once had the feat of defeating Qian Xunji, the former Pope of the Spirit Hall, was perhaps an unattainable figure for him.
However, once his strength reached a certain level, he discovered that Tang Hao and Tang San were indeed father and son, their temperaments were practically identical. The slightest blow would enrage them to the point of losing their minds.
I really don't know how they survived the Spirit Hall's pursuit back then.
Could it be the Pope of the Spirit Hall...? Suddenly, Dugu Bo seemed to realize something, and a chill ran down his spine.
Without delay, to prevent Tang Hao from attacking Ye Qinghe in a fit of anger, they chased after him.
Because his cultivation level was higher than Tang Hao's and he had cultivated the Xuan Tian Gong, he quickly surpassed Tang Hao and arrived at the Tian Dou Royal Academy ahead of him.
.................
On the other side, when Ye Qinghe and the others arrived at the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy, the main campus square in the center of the academy had already been mostly deserted.
Only Xue Xing avalanche, and Ye Lingling waiting here.
Xue Xingxue rushed to their aid immediately, asking anxiously, "Brother Ye, where is Mr. Dugu?"
It seems that the old fellow Gu Rong did not show up in public after returning... Ye Qinghe understood, and then replied perfunctorily, "Gu Rong has been defeated by Senior Dugu, and Senior Dugu is currently dealing with some matters."
Upon hearing this, Xue Xing and Xue Beng exchanged a glance, feeling both surprised and excited. Overjoyed, they realized that Dugu Bo's defeat of Gu Rong meant that he was now at least a level 95 Title Douluo, or even level 96.
In this way, the stronger their backing, the more secure their safety will be in the Heavenly Dou Empire. They won't have to worry about Xue Qinghe killing them one day.
"Alright, this is none of your business now. Go back to where you came from," Ye Qinghe impatiently ordered them to leave.
If it were anyone else, these two pampered fellows would have already thrown a tantrum. But Ye Qinghe was the grandson-in-law of their powerful patron, Dugu Bo. Instead of showing any dissatisfaction, they left with a forced smile.
After Xue Xingxue and her nephew left, Ye Lingling stepped forward and said somewhat nervously, "Captain... my father is waiting for you in meeting room number nine."
"Okay, you guys wait here for me for a bit. I still have some things to take care of." Ye Qinghe turned his gaze to the wooden house, released his spiritual power, and quickly sensed Xiao Wu through the wooden house.
It's clear that Xiao Wu is trying her best to suppress her soul beast aura to ensure she isn't discovered. Otherwise, even with the cover of the wooden house, she would have no chance of escaping the detection of Gu Rong, a level 95 Title Douluo.
Dugu Yan knew that Xiao Wu was a 100,000-year-old transformed soul beast, and Zhu Zhuqing also knew this after following Ye Qinghe. Upon hearing this, the two nodded slightly. As for Ye Lingling, she seemed to have already taken Ye Qinghe into the role of her master, so she didn't ask any more questions.
Ye Qinghe walked towards the wooden house. As soon as he entered, Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, Oscar, and Yu Tianheng summoned their martial spirits to protect Xiao Wu, who was huddled in a corner, trembling with fear.
"Get out of here, you bastard! You're not welcome here."
These four scoundrels unanimously declared their determination to protect their "lovers".
"Don't worry, I won't hurt your Xiaowu." Ye Qinghe smiled and looked at Xiaowu, who was being protected behind them. "Rogue Rabbit, would you mind having a chat? As a former alumna of Notting Academy."
After hearing this, Xiao Wu paused for a moment, nodded slightly, and said to Dai Mubai and the other three, "You can go out first."
"But Sister Xiaowu, we..." They were worried about Xiaowu and Ye Qinghe being alone together.
"Get out." Having spent so many years following Tang San around Yu Xiaogang, Xiao Wu didn't learn much else, but she did learn to be weak and powerless against outsiders, though she did learn to strike hard against insiders.
Hearing this, the four rotten devils could only reluctantly come out.
"Speak, what do you want to say?"
Xiao Wu forced herself to remain calm as she looked at Ye Qinghe.
"Do you know why I was so hostile towards you back in Notting Academy?" Ye Qinghe said something inexplicable.
Xiao Wu was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and she was also puzzled. Logically speaking, the two had no grudges against each other. In fact, if Ye Qinghe had been willing to accommodate her at the beginning like Tang San, the two might have become good friends. If things had gone further, she might have even gradually fallen in love with him.
For example, Xiao Wu initially had a great liking for Tang San, until she gradually discovered that Tang San never grew up, and later even stopped growing altogether, which led her to categorize him as a younger brother type like Da Ming and Er Ming.
But this so-called younger brother actually has a titled Douluo father, yet he doesn't tell her that. Not only does he conspire with his titled Douluo father to steal her soul ring and soul bone, but he also puts on all sorts of coy and effeminate acts in order to make her sacrifice her soul so that he can obtain her 100,000-year soul ring ahead of time.
That's absolutely despicable.
Wait a minute, since Tang San already knew he was a 100,000-year-old transformed soul beast, then Ye Qinghe must have known as well. Otherwise, given Dugu Bo's titled Douluo cultivation level, having been guarding her in the shadows all along, there's no reason he wouldn't have discovered her and would have captured her long ago.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a chill run down her spine and said in a cold voice, "It's because of Tang San's father, Tang Hao, right?"
"It seems you've figured it out." Ye Qinghe smiled. Talking to Xiao Wu, who wasn't love-struck, was simple.
Xiao Wu didn't answer, but just looked at Ye Qinghe with an indifferent expression.
Ye Qinghe said, "Indeed, if I had chosen to flatter you like Tang San did, or even said things like 'If you want to hurt me, you'll have to step over my body first,' our relationship would only be better than Tang San's before he revealed his true intentions. Perhaps, if we were in mortal danger, you would even be willing to sacrifice yourself for me. But in that case, I would inevitably be targeted by Tang Hao. Putting aside whether you would sacrifice yourself for me, even if you did, I would still be unable to escape the pursuit of a Title Douluo."
