The Dignity of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan Shall Not Be Insulted!
The moment Yu Yuanzhen carried Yu Tianheng out of Heaven Dou City, he knew things weren't that simple.
Ever since he left the city, that bastard Dugu Bo has been relentlessly pursuing him, with that aura constantly emanating from behind, always sticking close behind him.
"It's like a persistent ghost." Yu Yuanzhen cursed through gritted teeth, his pace quickening even further.
Yu Tianheng, whom he held in his arms, was wrapped in his Soul Power, and his face grew paler and paler with each bumpy ride.
Two figures sped past each other on the Official Road, the shadows of the roadside trees receding rapidly, and moonlight filtering through the clouds, illuminating two blurry afterimages.
After running for about half an hour, Yu Yuanzhen looked back and saw that Dugu Bo still dared to chase after him, and a chill ran down his spine.
"Dugu Bo, did you have a death wish to come all this way alone!" Yu Yuanzhen coldly, his voice carried by his Soul Power, making it exceptionally clear in the night wind.
Dugu Bo did not answer, but instead increased his speed. His Soul Power suddenly erupted, and his figure transformed into a green afterimage, instantly closing the distance by hundreds of steps.
"Sixth Soul Skill, Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor Break!" Dugu Bo snorted coldly, pushed out with his right palm, and a thick poisonous mist condensed into a huge serpent shape, blasting towards Yu Yuanzhen's back.
Yu Yuanzhen to the side, and the venomous snake grazed his shoulder before landing on the ground and corroding a patch of grass into a scorched pit.
"You're asking for death!" Yu Yuanzhen, turning around and striking out with his palm.
A blue-purple dragon claw phantom roared out, crackling with lightning, aiming straight for Dugu Bo's face.
Dugu Bo clasped his hands together, Serpent Python Heavenly Shield materialized. The dragon claw slammed into the shield, shattering the emerald green protective barrier. However, Dugu Bo had already used the force to retreat dozens of steps.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Yu Yuanzhen vanished in a blur, carrying Yu Tianheng as they ran towards the rear.
Another half hour passed, and the two continued fighting and running, chasing each other all the way from the south of the city to the east, and then from the east to the north.
The Official Road came to an end, and the ground beneath their feet turned into a wilderness. Withered grass was stirred up by the Soul Power and flew everywhere, while the soil was scorched into black pits by lightning.
Dugu Bo's poisonous fog left a long trail of corrosion behind him, and the trees and grass he passed withered and turned black in the fog.
"They're like a persistent ghost, we've run a hundred miles already, how come we still haven't shaken them off?" Yu Yuanzhen's breathing began to become heavy.
He had already been poisoned, which suppressed his Soul Power to Rank 93, and the constant fighting and running along the way had consumed a lot of it.
Although Dugu Bo was not as strong as him, he had the advantage of being in full condition and having abundant Soul Power.
More importantly, the opponent seemed to have inexhaustible Soul Power. Despite unleashing more than ten high-powered Soul Skills in a row, his Soul Power remained abundant, making him extremely difficult to deal with.
"We can't delay any longer." Yu Yuanzhen knew that further delay would be detrimental to him.
Thinking this, he suddenly stopped, turned to face Dugu Bo, raised his right hand above his head, and condensed blue-purple lightning into a fist-sized ball in his palm.
Sixth Soul Skill, Blue Lightning Dragon Emperor Break!
The lightning ball exploded, transforming into dozens of dragon-shaped bolts of lightning that swept towards Dugu Bo, covering the sky and the earth.
Dugu Bo's expression changed; the power of this move far exceeded that of the previous one.
He had no time to dodge, so he could only unleash his full Soul Power. The phantom of the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor roared out from behind him, its huge mouth opening to spew out a jet of dark green poison.
The poisonous pillar collided with the lightning, producing a deafening roar, and the shockwave from the explosion knocked both of them back simultaneously.
Dugu Bo took more than ten steps back before regaining his balance, a trace of blood seeping from the corner of his mouth.
But Yu Yuanzhen was in even worse shape; he had used up nearly a third of his Soul Power in the process.
He stood there, panting heavily, his chest heaving violently.
"Dugu Bo, I'll give you a chance." Yu Yuanzhen forced himself to stand up straight and said coldly, "Leave now, and I guarantee I won't touch you."
Dugu Bo wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, a strange smile suddenly appearing on his face, "Clan Leader Yu, you've made a mistake."
Upon seeing that smile, Yu Yuanzhen suddenly felt a sense of foreboding. "You wouldn't happen to be?!"
Dugu Bo burst into laughter. "I'm not alone!"
As soon as he finished speaking, five figures slowly emerged from the night behind Dugu Bo.
The Qian Jun Douluo wielded the Coiling Dragon Staff, its blade shimmering with golden light; the Demon Subduing Douluo held a short pestle, his eyes cold and sharp; and the Demon Bear Douluo's massive figure cast a huge shadow on the ground.
The Snake Lance Douluo and the Porcupinefish Douluo stood on either side, completely blocking all of Yu Yuanzhen's escape routes.
The Soul Rings beneath the feet of the five people rose simultaneously, Soul Ring glow illuminating the entire wilderness.
Yu Yuanzhen's expression changed completely.
He suddenly turned to look at Dugu Bo, then at the five figures, and finally understood everything. Recalling Xue Qinghe's face, he realized that he had never escaped the other party's control.
"What a Xue Qinghe! What a Spirit Hall!" Yu Yuanzhen gritted his teeth and roared angrily at Qian Jun Douluo.
Qian Jun Douluo stepped forward, his Coiling Dragon Staff slamming on the ground, and said in a deep voice, "Yu Yuanzhen, you are also a figure of your generation. I respect you greatly."
"Now surrender and join the Heaven Dou Empire, and I can assure you I will not harm the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan."
Yu Yuanzhen sneered, "You want me to join the Heaven Dou Empire and be Xue Qinghe's dog? Don't think I don't know what you're up to!"
Qian Jun Douluo shook his head and said helplessly, "A wise man submits to circumstances. You, Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, have no other choice but to surrender."
The Demon Subduing Douluo also spoke, his voice cold and fierce. "Yu Yuanzhen, I'll give you one more chance. If you're willing to surrender, it's not too late."
Yu Yuanzhen remained silent for a moment.
Then he raised his head, the weariness and dejection on his face vanishing, replaced by an almost frenzied ruthlessness, and roared at Qian Jun Douluo and the others:
"The dignity of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan must not be dishonored!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yu Tianzhen turned around abruptly, grabbed Yu Tianheng behind him, and ran wildly into the depths of the wilderness.
"Chase!" Qian Jun Douluo shouted coldly, and six figures chased after him at the same time.
The Snake Lance Douluo's spear thrust at the side, and Yu Yuanzhen dodged it, but his speed was forced to a halt.
The Poison Needle of the Porcupinefish Douluo shot from behind, and he slapped it away with a backhand, but he was a beat too slow.
The Demon Bear Douluo charged from the front, his massive body like a wall, forcefully knocking him back.
Six Titled Douluo surrounded them from six directions, their Soul Power weaving into an impenetrable net.
Yu Yuanzhen stood in the very center of the encirclement, while Yu Tianheng in his arms was too frightened to speak.
He had at least seven or eight wounds on his body that were oozing blood, and his left arm was hanging down at his side and he couldn't lift it.
He had very little Soul Power left, and even maintaining the Martial Soul Possession was becoming difficult.
"Yu Yuanzhen, I'll ask you one last time," Qian Jun Douluo asked in a deep voice, "Will you surrender, or not?"
Yu Yuanzhen looked around at the various Soul Rings and Soul Power glows of the six Titled Douluo, and suddenly smiled.
There was no fear in that smile, only a kind of wistful feeling that was hard to describe.
He shoved Yu Tianheng behind him, clenched his fists, and crackled the remaining blue-purple lightning on his knuckles. A cold smile spread across his face, "Bring it on!"
