Stone Desert City, Sand Mercenary Group training grounds.
Qing Lin bit her finger, her gaze shifting from Lu Bu within the azure-gold flames to Hai Bodong, who was covered in white frost.
Worry appeared in her emerald-green eyes. "It's been almost a whole day. Why isn't it done yet..."
Buzz, buzz, buzz~
As soon as she spoke, the hum of Hai Bodong's surging energy rang out. A dark green snake mark appeared on Hai Bodong's forehead, while purple energy surged upward from below and collided with the dark green snake mark.
After a brief stalemate, another hum rang out. The purple light flared, completely driving the dark green snake mark from Hai Bodong's body.
In an instant, an overwhelming aura erupted like a lion awakening, dominating the world.
"Hahaha, this damned seal has finally fucked off!" Hai Bodong threw back his head and laughed wildly. His violent aura battered the defensive formation with every burst of laughter.
The ground beneath his feet cracked, fissures spreading in all directions like a spiderweb, yet they could not shake the formation Lu Bu had set down.
"Elder Hai, keep it down! Young Master is still cultivating!" the young girl shouted crisply.
Hai Bodong's wild laughter abruptly stopped, like a crowing rooster whose neck had been grabbed, leaving his face flushed red.
"Qing Lin, I've recovered my strength. I'm a Dou Emperor now!"
Hai Bodong reminded her with a serious expression, releasing his Dou Qi Wings as well. As they flapped, a biting cold wind howled past.
"Oh." Qing Lin glanced at them, nodded lightly, then turned her attention away.
"Oh?" Hai Bodong was dumbfounded. A mighty Dou Emperor was standing right in front of her, and all she had to say was "oh"?
Good thing I never really took you as my disciple,
