Chapter 77 Yu Tianheng Dies Suddenly! The Second Prince Xue Luochuan is Also Dead!
"As expected of the number one spirit ring in a thousand years, he defeated a speed-attack type spirit master using only one spirit ring!"
"Young Master Dugu didn't use his Martial Soul, didn't you notice?"
"Yes! Such strong control over soul power! The martial soul didn't even appear when the soul ring was released!"
"I call him the greatest genius in the Douluo Continent in a thousand years. Does anyone object?"
"No objection! No objection!"
"I wonder how powerful Young Master Dugu's later soul skills are."
Below the arena, Yu Tianheng squinted at Dugu Lin on the stage, listening to the compliments he heard, and his jealousy secretly grew and spread.
At this time.
Dugu Lin jumped off the stage, and Ye Lingling immediately summoned the Nine Heart Begonia to heal his injuries.
Dugu Yan asked, "You're coming down already? Aren't you going to fight anymore?"
"Let's not play anymore, it's pointless!"
Dugu Lin's biggest goal in this Soul Master exchange competition was to figure out the gap between himself and other Soul Masters without using their Martial Souls.
With Yu Tianheng and the Snow Leopard Soul Master as sparring partners, that's enough.
His strength is already on par with any of his peers, but his speed and defense are severely lacking.
...
I'm home.
Dugu Lin found Dugu Bo and asked, "Grandpa, did you arrange a marriage between Huo Wu and me as children?"
"No, their family didn't agree. They said they'd think about it."
"Oh, is that so? I saw Huo Wushuang today, and his soul power level seems a bit off! Twelve and a half years old, and already at level 32 soul power! His cultivation speed is even faster than Tang San's, it feels so abnormal!"
Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo hesitated for a moment before saying, "Grandpa did indeed go to their house to propose marriage back then, and he also brought a rare Immortal Herb: Fire Phoenix Queen!"
Dugu Lin was stunned for a long time, then said speechlessly, "You mean to say that Huo Wushuang ate this Fire Phoenix Queen? And that he hasn't agreed to our family's arranged marriage yet?"
"Yes, that should be it."
Dugu Lin was stunned for a long time, blinked, and asked in a serious voice, "Grandpa, tell me, do they have something on you that they can use against you?"
"What's the meaning?"
"So, they ate all the herbs, but we didn't get any benefit at all! Is that... normal? Is that reasonable?"
Dugu Bo opened his mouth, then hesitated before saying, "If I said... I forgot, would you believe me?"
"Wh...what?"
"Never mind that, Grandpa's going to the Huo Clan right now!" Dugu Bo hurriedly left, thinking to himself, 'It's all because I was too busy lately! I completely forgot about Huo Fengkui's matter!'
That evening.
Dugu Bo returned to his family, bringing with him a message.
"Lin'er, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan intends to form a marriage alliance with the Blazing Fire Clan!"
"A marriage alliance?"
Dugu Lin frowned slightly, his mind racing, and asked in confusion, "This didn't happen in my previous life!"
Dugu Bo explained, "It's Yu Tianheng!"
"Yu Tianheng?"
"Yes! The Blue Lightning Clan saw Huo Wushuang's talent on the field, and Yu Tianheng was unable to win over your sister because of us. Therefore, the Blue Lightning Clan has set its sights on the Blazing Fire Clan!"
"So that's how it is... By the way, Grandpa, please don't tell me that Yu Tianheng's marriage proposal is Huo Wu!"
"It really is true!"
"Uh... and then? The marriage was arranged?"
"No! They already refused this morning!"
Dugu Bo's reputation was widespread... but also infamous!
After consuming Dugu Bo's precious Immortal Herbs, Huo Wushuang not only tempered the flames of his One-Horned Fire Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul, but also increased his Soul Power by a full three levels!
The Immortal Herbs with this effect are extremely valuable!
Now that the Huo clan has obtained Dugu Bo's Immortal Herbs, how could they possibly dare to form marriage alliances with other people?
They dared to let Huo Wu marry Yu Tianheng, and they believed that Dugu Bo would dare to come knocking on their door the very next day after the wedding!
If they come knocking on our door, they might not wipe out the Huo clan and the Blazing Fire Academy, but they will at least destroy Huo Wushuang's cultivation and talent!
"Grandpa, you had someone keep an eye on Yu Tianheng. I think his soul power has reached the bottleneck of level 29, and he should be able to break through in the next few days! If he breaks through now, he will probably go to Star Dou Forest to hunt for a soul ring! At that time... we'll secretly kill him!"
"Kill him?" Dugu Bo narrowed his eyes and said in a deep voice, "Fine! If we can't kill Tang San for now, can't we at least kill Yu Tianheng?"
A few days later.
Dugu Bo and Dugu Lin secretly entered Star Dou Forest and went ahead to a gathering place for lightning-attribute soul beasts.
Not long after, a group of three people appeared ahead.
"Grandpa, we'd better stage a soul beast riot to rule out the possibility of human involvement! That old dragon can be quite troublesome when it gets angry."
Dugu Bo took out a packet of medicinal powder and said in a low voice, "I just happened to have a medicinal powder that Yang Wudi and I made together that can attract soul beasts!"
"Then let's wait a while until Yu Tianheng absorbs the soul ring before we make our move!"
An hour later, as Yu Tianheng excitedly killed a 1,600-year-old Tyrant Dragon Soul Beast, Dugu Bo secretly sprinkled the medicinal powder!
Sure enough, not long after Yu Tianheng began absorbing the soul ring, soul beasts slowly began to gather.
"Oh no!"
Yu Tianheng's protectors and the teachers of Thunder Academy were all startled and quickly took out their family communication fireworks.
Whoosh slap
The fireworks exploded, but it was too late!
The Jade Phosphor Serpent, Little Lin, mingled among the group of soul beasts, clashing and fighting with them! Before long, a soul beast riot erupted!
"Brute!"
The protectors and academy teachers displayed 120% of their strength in an attempt to hold off the horde of soul beasts.
However, there is a spy among the group of soul beasts!
Little Lin wrapped its tail around a hundred-year-old soul beast, the Iron-plate Rhinoceros, and threw the Iron-plate Rhinoceros directly at Yu Tianheng, who was absorbing a soul ring!
Bang!
Caught off guard, Yu Tianheng was hit directly, which immediately triggered a surge of soul power within his soul ring!
"Pfft~"
Unable to control his soul power, Yu Tianheng immediately spat out a mouthful of blood. His soul ring collapsed instantly, and the chaotic soul power wantonly destroyed his meridians.
"Tianheng!" The guardian anxiously blocked a king of the earth and turned back.
"Uncle...I...Pfft~"
"Don't say anything! I... I'll take you to find a healing-type Soul Master right now!"
Absorbing a spirit ring is no small matter; if it's interrupted, one will either die or be severely injured.
Sure enough, Dugu Bo, Dugu Lin, Ye Renxin, Ye Lingling and the others heard the news of Yu Tianheng's sudden death in the Dugu residence.
"Yu Tianheng is dead?" Ye Renxin looked at Dugu Bo in surprise, frowning as he asked, "Could it be your doing? Otherwise, how could you have so conveniently invited Lingling and me to the manor for tea, without any real business?"
If anyone could cure the failed attempt to absorb the soul ring, it would undoubtedly be the Nine Heart Begonia!
"Yes, that's right! It was me who did it!"
"Uh... it really is you? You killed the heir of the Blue Lightning family... are you insane?"
Dugu Bo smiled, not wanting to explain, and said directly, "I have my reasons for killing him! Don't ask! Lingling, you can't tell anyone."
"Oh~ I won't tell."
Ye Renxin smiled wryly, speechless, and changed the subject, asking, "Since you don't want to explain the reason... then let's talk about what happened to Shui Bing'er!"
Upon hearing this, Dugu Lin immediately stood up and said, "Lingling, my Little Lin can do a backflip!"
"Little Lin can do a backflip? Impossible!"
"Don't believe me? Then come with me, I'll have him flip it over and show you!"
Dugu Bo: "..."
The next day, just as the news of Yu Tianheng's sudden death was spreading like wildfire, news also came that the Second Prince Xue Luochuan had hanged himself in his mansion!
