Chapter 126 The Crown Prince's Residence
After consuming the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower, Liu Erlong's soul power not only broke through to level 80, but her martial soul also underwent a remarkable evolution. Yu Tianyun named her evolved martial soul the Blazing Sacred Dragon.
Yu Tianyun harbored doubts about Liu Erlong's martial soul evolution. While the power of her flames had indeed increased significantly, he wasn't sure if this was the legendary ultimate fire. After all, he wasn't clear on the criteria for classifying ultimate fire.
Although Liu Erlong's flames are much more powerful than before, his elder brother also consumed the immortal herb, Thunder Source Grass, but his martial soul didn't seem to change much. At most, his lightning attribute was a little stronger than before, but it was still far inferior to his own.
Therefore, Yu Tianyun felt that Liu Erlong's martial soul would not evolve into the ultimate fire so easily.
Yu Tianyun readily agreed to take on the task of obtaining Liu Erlong's eighth spirit ring. With his current strength, hunting a spirit beast that was 7 to 8 years old for Liu Erlong would be a piece of cake.
However, they did not rush to go. Yu Tianyun asked Liu Erlong to first stabilize his current cultivation level and at the same time deeply understand the various changes brought about by the evolution of his martial soul.
In the days that followed, Yu Tianyun's life was packed full. In the mornings, he devoted himself to perfecting his self-created soul skills; in the afternoons, he would use combat training as an excuse to sneak off to Liu Erlong's place for illicit affairs; and in the evenings, he would meticulously serve the many women residing in the villa. He planned his time meticulously, without wasting a single moment; calling him a master of time management would not be an exaggeration.
Fortunately, he had already condensed his soul core and was currently in the stage of consolidating his cultivation, so he was not in a hurry to improve his soul power; otherwise, his cultivation would have been delayed.

In the prince's residence!
The fake crown prince, Xue Qinghe, also known as Qian Renxue, has been troubled lately. For some reason, Ning Fengzhi has almost stopped contacting her in the past six months, and he no longer goes out of his way to pave the way for her as before.
At first, she thought Ning Fengzhi might be preoccupied with many affairs of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, but half a year had passed, and even if there were many affairs, it should not have been delayed for so long.
Although she has now ascended to the position of Crown Prince, losing Ning Fengzhi's support will still bring her many minor troubles.
After all, she is currently only the Crown Prince, not the Emperor. If she has the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School as a solid backing, she can more easily win people's hearts in the court and thus have more say.
Although she held a very high position in the Spirit Hall, the Spirit Hall's power mostly operated covertly and had little direct influence on the imperial court. Therefore, the support of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was of great significance to her.
Ning Fengzhi used to have plenty of time, but now that he has broken free from the shackles of his martial soul's flaws and has a bright future ahead, he naturally devotes himself entirely to cultivation. He has no energy left to pay attention to this cheap disciple.
At this moment, Qian Renxue's thoughts suddenly drifted to Yu Tianyun, who had once aroused her curiosity, and she spoke:
"Uncle She, have you heard anything about Yu Tianyun lately?"
Before he finished speaking, Serpent Spear Douluo She Long swiftly appeared before Qian Renxue, bowed, and said:
"Young Master, we have recently found some relevant information about Yu Tianyun."
"Oh? Let me see it quickly."
Qian Renxue's eyes lit up, and she spoke softly.
"Yes."
Serpent Spear Douluo hurriedly took out a document from his storage soul tool and respectfully handed it to Qian Renxue with both hands.
Qian Renxue took the documents and began to carefully review them. However, the more she read, the more her brows furrowed, and she murmured softly:
"Blue Tyrant Academy, Yu Tianyun, Dugu Yan, Ye Lingling, Ning Rongrong? Zhu Zhuyun? Zhu Zhuqing?"
"How strange, Ning Rongrong and the eldest daughter of the Xingluo Zhu family are both with Yu Tianyun? And they're even close? Is Ning Fengzhi getting senile? Isn't he afraid that Ning Rongrong will be taken advantage of by this brat from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect?"
"And what about the Zhu family of Xingluo? How did they get involved with Yu Tianyun? These two sisters should have been the spouses of the heir to the throne of the Xingluo Empire, so why did they travel all the way to Lanba Academy?"
Qian Renxue was completely baffled by the strange relationship between Yu Tianyun and these women. She turned her gaze to the Serpent Spear Douluo and asked:
"Uncle She, have you found any information about Yu Tianyun before he came to Blue Tyrant Academy?"
The Serpent Spear Douluo looked helpless and said:
"Young Master, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect has kept that kid's information extremely well hidden. We can only obtain basic information such as his age. This kid rarely leaves the sect. He only went to the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy two and a half years ago. The first time was to find Dugu Yan, and the second time was to find Yu Tianheng. Apart from that, there is no other valuable information. This kid must be extraordinary, otherwise the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect would never have hidden his information so thoroughly."
Qian Renxue glanced sideways at the Serpent Spear Douluo, thinking to herself:
"Do you even need to tell me? Anyone with a brain can guess that Yu Tianyun must be hiding a secret. He's probably a prodigy with extraordinary talent. The Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect is afraid he'll die young, so they've kept him hidden within the sect."
The less Qian Renxue knew about Yu Tianyun, the more interested she became in him, eager to learn everything about him.
At this moment, she thought of the Blue Tyrant Academy where Yu Tianyun was. So, she asked She Long:
Do you have the dean's information here?
Upon hearing this, Serpent Spear Douluo was taken aback, his brows furrowing involuntarily as if he were hesitating about something.
Upon seeing this, Qian Renxue's face darkened, and she said coldly:
"Uncle She, is there something you're having trouble saying?"
Serpent Spear Douluo hurriedly cupped his hands and said:
"Young Master, please calm down. It's not that I intentionally concealed anything, but the information about the Dean of Blue Tyrant Academy is truly scarce and somewhat vague."
Qian Renxue narrowed her eyes slightly and said thoughtfully:
"Vague and unclear? That's interesting. Then tell me everything you know!"
The Serpent Spear Douluo had no choice but to nod in agreement:
"Yes, young master."
He then took out another document and handed it to Qian Renxue.
"Yu Luomian's illegitimate daughter?"
"The Golden Triangle?"
"Master Yu Xiaogang?"
As Qian Renxue murmured softly, a fine layer of sweat gradually appeared on the forehead of the Serpent Spear Douluo.
Suddenly, Qian Renxue seemed to have discovered a crucial point of doubt. Her eyes flashed with a sharp light as she looked up at the Serpent Spear Douluo and asked in confusion:
"Uncle She, what's wrong with you?"
Serpent Spear Douluo hurriedly wiped the sweat from his forehead, bowed, and said:
"Young Master, I am only worried that the information I have found may not meet your needs, and I am filled with anxiety."
Qian Renxue gave a light snort and said:
"Uncle She, there's no need for that. But the background of the Dean of Blue Tyrant Academy seems far more complicated than I imagined. Do you have more detailed information about Yu Xiaogang?"
Upon hearing this, Serpent Spear Douluo became even more nervous and stammered:
"Young Master, Yu Xiaogang's information is classified as top secret, and I truly had no idea about it."
"Hmph! What top-secret information is beyond my knowledge? Or is Uncle She no longer willing to serve me? Fine, I can report to Grandpa and have him send someone else!"
Qian Renxue snorted coldly, her face dark as she glared at the Serpent Spear Douluo.
Serpent Spear Douluo was immediately shocked and dared not hide anything any longer, hurriedly saying:
"Young Master, this was a decision made jointly by the High Priest and His Holiness the Pope; there's nothing I can do about it!"
Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue was stunned, her beautiful eyes widening as she murmured to herself:
"How is this related to that woman? And why is Grandpa involved too, without my knowledge? What are they hiding from me? I guess I need to find a suitable opportunity to ask Grandpa myself."
Qian Renxue's face was gloomy as she paced back and forth in the room. After a moment, she stopped and said:
"Alright, I'll ask Grandpa about Yu Xiaogang myself. Uncle She, you continue to investigate Yu Tianyun."
Serpent Spear Douluo, feeling as if he had been granted a pardon, quickly bowed and replied, "Yes, Young Master. Your subordinate will do his utmost."
Qian Renxue waved her hand, signaling him to leave, and then sat down in a chair, her brows furrowed, lost in thought.
"I never expected it to cause so much trouble. Perhaps showing goodwill to Ning Rongrong can win back Ning Fengzhi's support. But what's going on with Yu Tianyun? Ning Rongrong, Dugu Yan, Ye Lingling, Zhu Zhuyun, and Zhu Zhuqing—these five women all have impressive backgrounds. How did they all get involved with him?"
"Is he incredibly charming? Pah, what a scumbag!"
"The people of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan are all this disgusting, and that Yu Luomian is no exception."
"I'm free tomorrow, so I'll go and see you, you scumbag!"
