Newcomer Joins the Chat Group—Could They Be a Peerless Expert?

Bringing Tang Chen back from the City of Slaughter was not urgent.

He still had to return to Heaven Dou City first and meet Chen Xun offline.

Judging by the time,

Chen Xun should have nearly arrived in Heaven Dou City by now.

The news of his defeat of Qian Daoliu should soon spread across the continent as well...

Chen Luo took a single step, and his figure instantly vanished between heaven and earth.

Inside the Papal Palace, the atmosphere was incomparably grave.

Bibi Dong slammed the scepter in her hand heavily against the ground. The crisp impact echoed through the vast hall, making Yue Guan and Ghost Douluo's hearts tremble.

"Two level ninety-five Titled Douluo..."

Her voice was as cold as ice.

"And yet you let trash like Dugu Bo slip away from under your noses. You had better give me an explanation that satisfies me."

Yue Guan hurriedly bowed, fine beads of cold sweat forming on his forehead. "Your Excellency, we had already laid down an inescapable net. It should have been impossible for Dugu Bo to escape."

"But just then, a mysterious person suddenly appeared."

His Adam's apple bobbed, lingering fear still evident in his voice.

"That person did not even release a martial soul. With merely a trace of pressure, he caused Old Ghost and me to completely lose consciousness."

"What?"

Bibi Dong abruptly rose from her throne, a cold glint flashing deep within her beautiful eyes.

To suppress two Titled Douluo with only a trace of pressure—even Qian Daoliu at level ninety-nine could never accomplish such a thing.

Just who was that person?

At that moment, Yue Guan suddenly recalled something and said,

"Oh, right, Your Excellency. That mysterious person called himself the Lord of the God Realm, and he gave Dugu Bo the qualification to join the God Realm..."

"Lord of the God Realm?"

Bibi Dong's brows furrowed slightly.

When it came to gods, Bibi Dong was one of the few people on this continent who knew of their existence.

After all, she herself was an inheritor of a Deity Inheritance.

Her inheritance came from the Rakshasa God, a Level One God of the God Realm.

But even so, she had only heard of the God Realm and had never seen it with her own eyes.

And what kind of place was this God Realm?

Although Bibi Dong did not understand these matters, the recent string of sudden upheavals all faintly foretold that the continent was about to undergo a great change.

Bibi Dong fell silent for a moment. The sharpness in her eyes slightly receded as she said in a low voice,

"Forget it. This matter cannot be blamed on you two."

"The Soul Hunting Plan is about to begin. It would be unwise to stir up further trouble. Let Dugu Bo's matter end here."

"I must seize this opportunity..."

An opportunity to bring down the Angel Family and take complete control of Spirit Hall.

Outside Heaven Dou City,

Chen Xun's gaze had barely left the Myriad Laws Mirror in his hand.

His fingertips occasionally swiped across the screen as he browsed the dazzling array of treasures in the Myriad Worlds Mall.

"Grandfather, we've arrived at Heaven Dou City."

Chen Xin reminded him softly from the side, a trace of confusion in his eyes.

Along the way,

Chen Xun had remained immersed in that strange mirror almost the entire time, rarely looking up.

Chen Xin had carefully observed it during the journey. It was clearly an extremely ordinary mirror.

Yet his grandfather watched it with great interest, even chuckling from time to time.

If his grandfather was not crazy, then Chen Xin felt that he himself must be crazy.

The reward for Chen Xun's mission to defeat Qian Daoliu had far exceeded expectations.

A full five million Contribution Points!

That was even more than the total he had earned from defeating the six worshippers before.

Chen Xun only felt that his thoughts flowed freely now,

and he had never felt so refreshed and clear-headed.

"What treasure should I buy?"

"Should I buy some more Enlightenment Tea?"

"No... I'd better ask Senior in person when I see him later."

Just then,

a new message suddenly popped up.

God Realm Preliminary Group chat.

[Not Just Targeting the Poison God joined the group chat]

"Oh? A newcomer?"

"Not Just Targeting the Poison God... Hiss, another expert has joined us."

Chen Xun's eyes widened slightly as he began thinking about how to build a good relationship with this newly arrived expert.

Apprentice Yearning for the Way of the Sword: @Not Just Targeting the Poison God, welcome to the group, Fellow Daoist. (Fists clasped) (Fists clasped) (Fists clasped)

Sunset Forest, inside a cave dwelling.

Dugu Bo sat on a stone stool, his fingers moving across the Myriad Laws Mirror as a faint glow flowed over its surface.

Having just joined the group chat, he immediately saw Chen Xun's message.

"Apprentice Yearning for the Way of the Sword... Judging from that name, he should be some exceptionally gifted junior from the continent?"

He thought to himself.

Though his strength ranked near the bottom among Titled Douluo, he was still a Titled Douluo nonetheless.

His status was noble, and he could be considered one of the continent's few top experts.

Xue Ye, the emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire, had even shown him favor several times in an attempt to recruit him.

"We'll all be in the same group from now on. Since he is a junior, I should naturally take better care of him."

Thus, Dugu Bo began typing in the chat box.

A few breaths later, a message was sent.

Not Just Targeting the Poison God: @Apprentice Yearning for the Way of the Sword. Hehe, thank you for the welcome, Fellow Daoist. If you encounter any questions in cultivation from now on, feel free to ask this old man.

On the other side, when Chen Xun saw Dugu Bo's message, he was beside himself with excitement.

"It seems this Senior is very easy to get along with. Senior So Handsome They Chop Me was the same. The God Realm Preliminary Group has such a friendly atmosphere—what kind of scene must the God Realm group be?"

"No, since this Senior has just joined the group chat, I have to help him more and build a closer relationship."

After the matter with the Enlightenment Tea, Chen Xun had deeply realized just how important it was to have a senior expert willing to help you. Such an opportunity could only be encountered by chance.

He had to strike while the iron was hot!

Immediately afterward,

Chen Xun introduced everything he currently knew to Dugu Bo one by one, including how to claim missions on the forum, how to obtain Contribution Points, how to purchase treasures in the Myriad Worlds Mall... and a whole series of other functions.

Faced with such an active and enthusiastic junior, Dugu Bo was in high spirits. At the same time, he was deeply shocked by the treasures in the Myriad Worlds Mall.

Any random item from the Myriad Worlds Mall was far stronger than something like a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone from their world!

No, they were simply not comparable at all.

What kind of trash was a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone?

How could it dare compare itself to the treasures in the Myriad Worlds Mall?

While Dugu Bo was sighing in amazement, Chen Luo had returned to the bookstore and just finished cooking a bowl of instant noodles, intending to make do with it for dinner.

"The Myriad Laws Realm kept ringing nonstop on the way back. Dugu Bo must have joined the group."

Chen Luo immediately slurped up a huge mouthful of noodles, opened the Myriad Laws Realm group chat, and swiped across the screen.

When Chen Luo saw the messages in the group chat, he nearly spat out the noodles in his mouth.

"Cough... cough..."

"Why is Chen Xun groveling before Dugu Bo?"

"What a sin."

At that moment, there were dozens of messages, large and small, in the God Realm Preliminary Group chat.

Every single message from Chen Xun carried undisguised flattery and attentiveness.

In contrast, Dugu Bo's replies were filled with an air of calm detachment, carrying the bearing of a reclusive master beyond the mortal world.

If Chen Luo had not known his identity,

he might truly have taken Dugu Bo for some hidden peerless expert.

"If Chen Xun finds out who Dugu Bo really is, that scene..."

It was too beautiful to imagine.
