Who Do You Think You Are? Send Someone Who Can Speak for You
Xu Feng stood proudly atop the Immortal-Slaying Sword high above Spirit Hall, his hands clasped behind his back. He looked utterly serene and otherworldly, his bearing ethereal, like a true sword immortal descended to dominate the age.
"I am the young master of Sea God Island, and I have come to seek a marriage alliance with Bibi Dong," Xu Feng called out, channeling his Soul Power. His voice rolled in waves into Spirit Hall.
Hearing Xu Feng's words, the crowd around Spirit Hall looked up at him, their faces full of shock and disbelief. Their eyes widened, and their breathing stopped for a moment. Then they could hardly hold it in.
"I'm dying of laughter. This guy must be crazy, right? He actually came to Spirit Hall to make trouble?"
"Did you hear what he just said? Not only did he call Spirit Hall's saintess by name, he even wants a marriage alliance with her. I've never seen anyone so shameless."
"If the elders of Spirit Hall hear him, this guy's in for a world of pain."
"Could this guy have fallen under the saintess's spell and gone mad?"
"But his presence seems rather powerful. He must be one of the best of the younger generation and extremely confident, which is why he came to Spirit Hall to confess to the saintess."
"What good is being a prodigy before a behemoth like Spirit Hall? He'll still have to bow his head."
"Sea God Island? Never heard of it. It's probably some new faction that crawled out of a remote corner somewhere."
"I can barely keep the corners of my mouth down. Damn mouth, don't laugh. We're in for a show."
"His head might not be quite right, but he's handsome. I like him."
"..."
The people around Spirit Hall chattered among themselves, looking at Xu Feng as though he were a madman. They had never imagined that someone would dare make trouble right in front of Spirit Hall and demand a marriage alliance with its saintess.
They could already imagine how lively things were about to get.
When some young women saw Xu Feng's handsome face, stars appeared in their eyes, and they gazed at him like lovestruck fools. They had already made plans: once the people of Spirit Hall knocked the man unconscious, they might be able to seize the chance to pick up his body.
At the very moment Xu Feng arrived above Spirit Hall, countless rays of golden light suddenly burst across the sky in Douluo's original timeline. Amid the dazzling radiance, an enormous screen of light emerged from the void, showing Xu Feng's arrival above Spirit Hall.
This change drew the attention of various factions in the original timeline, including Spirit Hall, the Heaven Dou Empire, the Star Luo Empire, the Clear Sky Sect, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
"Where did this screen of light come from?"
"Gasp, did you notice? We can project our thoughts onto the screen."
"How interesting."
"According to the screen's introduction, it seems to be another timeline of our world."
In the original timeline, comments on the sky screen began to multiply when people saw the mysterious man arrive above Spirit Hall and ask for a marriage alliance with Bibi Dong.
At Shrek Academy, Yu Xiaogang's face turned ashen. Seeing the white moonlight in his heart being defiled, he heaved with anger, ready to explode on the spot. "He actually wants a marriage alliance with Dong'er? What a toad lusting after swan meat! Sea God Island, was it? I'll remember that."
At Spirit Hall, a woman of breathtaking beauty and noble bearing sat upright on the papal throne. She wore a brilliant golden gown, and a faint pressure emanated from her, making her seem all the more domineering and majestic, an overwhelmingly commanding figure.
At first sight of this woman, anyone would feel compelled to kneel in submission and worship her, willingly placing themselves at her command.
"Another timeline?" Bibi Dong's memories returned to her youth, a time of both pain and happiness. When she heard the mysterious man seek a marriage alliance with her younger self, her eyes sharpened a little, and a faint fluctuation of Soul Power leaked from her body, making the entire Pope's Palace feel much more oppressive.
On Sea God Island, Bo Saixi and the Seven Sacred Pillars were dumbfounded and somewhat stunned when they heard the mysterious man call himself the young master of Sea God Island.
Huh?
What was going on?
Since when had their Sea God Island acquired a young master?
As they puzzled over it, specks of light descended from the sky screen and gathered before them into a mirror, helping them recall what had happened earlier in the other timeline.
"So that's how it is," Bo Saixi said in realization. "This is the orphan I picked up from the sea in the other timeline." When she saw Xu Feng embrace her, a trace of awkwardness and a rosy flush immediately appeared on her fair, delicate face. She could clearly see that her other self did not resist Xu Feng's embrace and even seemed to enjoy the warmth of it.
The Seven Sacred Pillars had not expected that the high priestess in the other timeline would have such a tender side either.
In Xu Feng's timeline.
Two streaks of light flashed past, and two figures appeared above Spirit Hall.
One wore bright red ceremonial robes embroidered with gold and silver patterns, with jewels set into the chest. His face was fair and bewitchingly beautiful; if not for the Adam's apple on his neck, one would have thought him a woman.
The other was enveloped in black mist, his true features impossible to make out. He exuded a sinister, evil presence and was cold and austere to the extreme.
Who else could these two be but Chrysanthemum Ghost Douluo?
"You've got some nerve, daring to make trouble at Spirit Hall." Chrysanthemum Douluo's tone was calm, but anyone could hear the chill in it. "Don't bring trouble upon yourself. Leave at once, and I won't hold you accountable for offending Spirit Hall's dignity."
"Who do you think you are, barking in front of me?"
"Send someone who can speak for you!"
Xu Feng glanced at Chrysanthemum Ghost Douluo as he spoke.
What?
Who did he think he was?
Chrysanthemum Douluo froze for a moment, bewildered by Xu Feng's words.
He was an elder of Spirit Hall, a level 95 Titled Douluo. He held an exalted position in Spirit Hall and was qualified to look down upon all living beings. Whenever he went out into the world, he was invariably met with respect and worship.
Yet the man before him had just asked who he thought he was? Wasn't that a slap in his face?
Fine, fine, fine. It had been a long time since anyone had said that to him.
The title of Titled Douluo was not just for show. He would make the man before him understand that a Titled Douluo was not to be insulted.
"Very good." Chrysanthemum Douluo narrowed his eyes, his presence growing much colder and harsher. Beside him, black mist churned around Ghost Douluo, making him look even more sinister. His status was equal to Chrysanthemum Douluo's, so wasn't an insult to Chrysanthemum Douluo an insult to him as well?
Sensing the change in Chrysanthemum Douluo's and Ghost Douluo's presence as they prepared to attack, Xu Feng looked a little helpless. He really did not want to play out the melodramatic routine of beating the younger ones only for the older ones to come after him. "I said to send out someone who can speak for you. Why won't you listen?"
"Alas, I really don't know what to do with you."
He released his Soul Rings outright.
Purple! Purple! Purple! Black! Black! Black! Red! Red! Red!
When Chrysanthemum Ghost Douluo saw Xu Feng's nine Soul Rings, their eyes instantly grew much clearer.
