The next day.
Waking up gently at dawn, Yu Tianmeng returned to Heaven Dou City to take charge of the Purple Micro Palace.
Tang Yuehua officially took over the management of the Clear Sky Sect as the Chief Elder.
Her first order was for the Second Elder and Third Elder, both titled Douluo, to secretly follow the Shrek Academy Team heading to Spirit City to protect her nephew Tang San from assassination by the Spirit Hall.
Immediately afterwards, she ordered the entire Clear Sky Sect to return to the front lines and selected several second-generation disciples as envoys to contact potential allies such as the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family, and the Heaven Dou Empire.
Zhou Chen sat to one side, watching Tang Yuehua coldly issue orders in the Council Hall, and the Clear Sky Sect disciples obey and leave. He felt slightly dazed.
Once upon a time, she was just a weak and powerless noblewoman who stayed in the Moon Pavilion teaching aristocratic etiquette. Back then, she must have been happier and more carefree.
Now, under his influence, Tang Yuehua's fate has completely deviated from its original trajectory. As the Chief Elder the Clear Sky Sect, she commands a multitude of powerful figures, and even the Spirit Hall must be wary of her at a single command.
Not only Tang Yuehua, but also the fates of many other women were altered because of Zhou Chen's manipulation.
Characters like Dugu Yan, Ye Lingling, Meng Yiran, Xue Ke, and Shui Binger were originally minor supporting characters in the original Douluo Continent storyline, but under Zhou Chen's manipulation, their fates were drastically altered, transforming them into pivotal figures in this world.
This gave Zhou Chen a sense of pleasure.
"My husband, my husband..."
Tang Yuehua's soft exclamation brought Zhou Chen back to his senses.
Outside the Council Hall, night had fallen, the bright moon hung high, and Star Dou filled the sky.
"My husband, who were you thinking about just now?"
Tang Yuehua looked at Zhou Chen with a half-smile, her beautiful azure eyes sparkling.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Chen didn't hesitate and immediately declared righteously, "Of course, the one I'm thinking of is Moonlight!"
Don't give me that...
Tang Yuehua's words were blunt, but her eyes held an undisguised joy. She turned around and sat on Zhou Chen's lap. Then, she stretched out her two fair arms and wrapped them around Zhou Chen's neck, saying half-coquettishly and half-seriously, "Husband, will you stay by my side for the next few days?"
Zhou Chen reached out and gently brushed a strand of Tang Yuehua's hair from her temple, saying in a doting tone, "Okay."
Upon hearing this, Tang Yuehua immediately pouted her lips happily and gently kissed Zhou Chen's cheek.
However, at that very moment, outside the Council Hall, Tang Xiao's powerful shout suddenly rang out:
"Who dares to trespass on my Clear Sky Sect?"
Before the words were even finished, Sect Master Tang Xiao's tall and imposing figure appeared in mid-air!
Immediately afterwards, shadowy figures appeared throughout the entire Clear Sky Sect, with hundreds of the Clear Sky Sect disciples pouring out of various rooms, searching for the person who had trespassed into the sect.
"Tang Sect Leader, there's no need to be nervous. We're all family."
A soft, feminine voice rang out in the sky. The next second, a wisp of dark red smoke condensed in front of Tang Xiao, transforming into a handsome young man with a pale face, wearing a blood-red cloak.
Nine Soul Ring —white, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, black—are rhythmically moving up and down on the young man's body!
The nine Soul Rings on the young man's body caught Tang Xiao's eye, causing his pupils to shrink instantly.
A Title Douluo, and such a young Douluo at that!
Judging from his appearance and bone age, he is no more than twenty-five years old!
Where did this genius come from?
Tang Xiao had a vague idea in his mind.
The young man's self-introduction the next second immediately confirmed Tang Xiao's thoughts.
The young man gracefully placed his hand on his chest and bowed, saying, "I am Xiao Chenyu, commander of the Tian Ji Guard among the Big Dipper Seven Guards under the Purple Micro Palace."
"It really is the Purple Micro Palace."
Tang Xiao's expression remained unchanged, but his heart was in turmoil.
As the sect leader of the Clear Sky Sect, Tang Xiao has been quietly keeping an eye on the Purple Micro Palace through various channels over the past few years.
As far as he knew, the Purple Micro Palace had ten publicly known Title Douluo, namely:
Poison Douluo Dugu Bo, whose poison can travel a thousand miles and who is invincible in group battles, possesses the Martial Soul of the Azure Serpent King.
Lin Yang, the Azure Dragon Azure Dragon Douluo Lin Yang, is ruthless, decisive, and possesses the Azure Dragon martial Martial Soul.
The mysterious Moon God Douluo Ji Mingyue, clad in black armor and wielding a shadowy silver spear.
Liu Erlong, the illegitimate daughter of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family, is a fiery-tempered Burning Heaven Douluo.
The shrewd and calculating Flander, the Vermilion Bird Douluo, is devoted to building Shrek Academy.
Beautiful and noble, the Martial Soul Douluo Biji is a healing-type Title Douluo whose martial soul is the Emerald Swan Douluo Bi Ji.
She is always dressed in a tight-fitting purple armor, with her chest adorned with overlapping peaks, making her the Purple Dragon Douluo Zi JI.
There are also the Three Elders of the Shi Family of the Black Tortoise Family, a family of Xuanwu, who are of extremely high age and seniority and whose Martial Soul is the Black Tortoise Turtle.
Although Tang Xiao didn't recognize most of these ten Title Douluo, he at least had some basic knowledge of their Martial Soul, genders, and ages.
However, the mysterious and effeminate young man Xiao Chenyu, dressed in a blood-red cloak, was clearly not one of the ten titled Douluo publicly known in the Purple Micro Palace.
In other words, this Title Douluo named Xiao Chenyu is the hidden strength of the Purple Micro Palace. Including Xiao Chenyu, the Purple Micro Palace has at least eleven Title Douluo!
Moreover, perhaps the eleven titled Douluo are still not the full strength of the Purple Micro Palace, but merely the tip of the iceberg!
"Hiss~"
As Tang Xiao's thinking gradually became more enlightened, he couldn't help but gasp. He felt more and more that his younger sister, Tang Yuehua, marrying Zhou Chen, the Palace Master of Purple Micro Palace, and clinging to the Purple Micro Palace's coattails was truly a brilliant move.
Thinking of this, Tang Xiao looked at Xiao Chenyu with a smile and said with a grin, "Mr. Xiao, you are too kind. May I ask what your title is...?"
"Title-banned Blood Wolf."
Xiao Chenyu cupped his hands in a respectful gesture and said.
"Blood Wolf Douluo Xiao Chenyu, that's quite an imposing title."
Tang Xiao offered a compliment, then, as if remembering something, slapped his forehead and hurriedly said, "Blood Wolf Douluo Xiao Chenyu has come to my Clear Sky Sect, he must have some news to report to Palace Master Zhou. Come with me, Palace Master Zhou is with my sister."
Thank you.
Xiao Chenyu gave a polite thank you and then followed Tang Xiao as they descended from the sky into the Council Hall.
Upon entering the Council Hall, Xiao Chenyu saw Zhou Chen and Tang Yuehua whispering sweet nothings to each other. Immediately, Xiao Chenyu knelt on one knee and respectfully said, "Your subordinate Xiao Chenyu greets the Palace Master and the Madam."
"Get up."
Zhou Chen waved his hand, signaling Xiao Chenyu to stand up, and then asked, "Is there anything you need to report today?"
"Yes."
Xiao Chenyu stood up, respectfully cupped his hands in a respectful gesture, and then looked at Tang Xiao and Tang Yuehua.
Clearly, Xiao Chenyu meant that what he was about to say was not suitable for outsiders to hear, and he hoped that Tang Xiao and the others would leave.
Tang Xiao clearly understood Xiao Chenyu's look, and he laughed and said, "Brother-in-law, Mr. Xiao, you two chat, I'll go back to my secluded cultivation now."
Before he finished speaking, Tang Xiao vanished from the Council Hall in a flash.
Tang Yuehua originally wanted to get up and leave the main hall temporarily, but Zhou Chen put his arm around her slender waist.
"You are my wife, there's no need to hide it, and there's nothing you can't know."
Zhou Chen looked at Tang Yuehua tenderly and said softly.
Upon hearing this, Tang Yuehua felt a warmth in her heart and nestled softly into Zhou Chen's arms.
Seeing this, Xiao Chenyu clasped his hands in a fist salute, then respectfully said in a deep voice, "According to information from the Tian Ji Guard spies of the Barak Kingdom, a large number of powerful figures from the Spirit Hall, led by Pope Bi Bi Dong, have entered the Star Dou Great Forest!"
"What?"
Zhou Chen suddenly stood up, exclaiming in surprise, "Are you sure? Isn't the final of the Soul Master Tournament about to begin? Bi Bi Dong should be in Spirit City, preparing to watch the competition!"
"Your subordinate confirms."
Xiao Chenyu said with a wry smile, "The Spirit Hall's formation this time is not much smaller than when they besieged the City of Slaughter last time! Bi Bi Dong brought more than ten Title Douluo to the Star Dou Great Forest, as well as five entire Silent Extinction Squad!"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Chen was completely dumbfounded.
What is Bi Bi Dong up to?
According to the original plot, at this point she should have ordered Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo to go to the Heaven Dou Empire to intercept and kill Tang San, while she herself would stay in Spirit City and wait for the start of the Soul Master Tournament finals.
But now, this woman is acting out of the ordinary, leading a large group of powerful individuals into the Star Dou Great Forest!
Bi Bi Dong's actions immediately made Zhou Chen realize that, just as he had guessed, there really was a transmigrator helping this woman!
Otherwise, Bi Bi Dong would never have acted so abnormally!
"You son of a bitch!"
Zhou Chen couldn't help but curse under his breath. What on earth was going on in this Douluo World? How could there be so many transmigrators?
It's unclear whether the time traveler hiding behind Bi Bi Dong is male or female. If she's female, there's still room for negotiation; if she's male, then the only option is to kill her.
After all, two tigers cannot share one mountain, unless one is male and the other female.
As his thoughts raced, Zhou Chen suddenly remembered another question: what was Bi Bi Dong planning to do, mobilizing such a large force and traveling thousands of miles to the Star Dou Great Forest?
After a moment's thought, Zhou Chen immediately understood Bi Bi Dong's line of thinking!
This woman probably wants to hunt down Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast to complete the Soul Ring she's missing for her Second Martial Soul!
But didn't Bi Bi Dong know that the Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena, was First-Level God in the Star Dou Great Forest? Wasn't she afraid of encountering the Silver Dragon King and kicking a hornet's nest?
Didn't the time traveler behind her tell her this?
This puzzled Zhou Chen greatly.
What Zhou Chen didn't know was that Bi Bi Dong was genuinely unaware that there was actually First-Level God in the Star Dou Great Forest.
Because the transmigrator Ye Wuhen, who knew the truth, was already dead, and the Ye Wuhen Douluo Diary he left behind only recorded the plot of Douluo I.
Therefore, Bi Bi Dong not only didn't know about the Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena, she didn't even know about the existence of the Ferocious Beast such as Di Tian, Xiong Jun, Emerald Swan Bi Ji!
However, although Bi Bi Dong was unaware of the existence of the Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena, and might have run into a brick wall or even been wiped out, this was only a very small possibility.
More likely, the Silver Dragon King Gu Yuena will remain hidden at the bottom of the Lake of Life, just as in the original story, and will not show herself, allowing Bi Bi Dong to kill one or two Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts.
After all, as an enemy of the Divine Realm, Gu Yuena dared not act recklessly in the mortal world, much less kill powerful human beings. Such actions would easily be discovered by the Divine Realm.
Once she is discovered by the Divine Realm, she will immediately be besieged and hunted down by the human deities of the Divine Realm!
Gu Yuena could tell which was more important.
If Gu Yuena doesn't show herself, the other Ferocious Beast like Di Tian probably won't show themselves either, and will only hide at the bottom of the Lake of Life, just like in the original story.
If that's the case, then the Er Ming Da Ming in the Core Region of Star Dou Great Forest, namely the Sky Azure Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape, would probably be in danger.
In the original storyline, Bi Bi Dong, with only a few Title Douluo, chased Da Ming Er Ming to the brink of despair.
Bi Bi Dong has brought more than ten Title Douluo, as well as a large number of Soul Douluo and Soul Saint. Relying solely on the two Soul Beasts, Da Ming Er Ming, is simply like throwing an egg against a rock.
Of course, Zhou Chen didn't care much about the two Soul Beast being dead.
Etc...
Zhou Chen suddenly remembered that Xiao Wu was also in the Star Dou Great Forest!
Damn!
Zhou Chen suddenly felt a surge of anxiety. Whether the Titan Giant Ape and the Sky Azure Bull Python lived or died was irrelevant, but it would be such a pity if the adorable girl, the 100,000-year-old Jade Xiao Wu, were to meet with misfortune!
Good looks are everything!
Thinking of this, Zhou Chen frowned and said, "Xiao Chenyu, immediately issue the order: all the Title Douluo of the Purple Micro Palace stationed in Heaven Dou City, come with me to the Star Dou Great Forest!"
"Yes, sir!"
Xiao Chenyu respectfully clasped his hands in a fist salute, then transformed into a wisp of blood-red smoke, instantly flying out of the main hall and speeding towards the direction of Heaven Dou City!
Then, Zhou Chen looked at Tang Yuehua beside him, wrapped his arms tightly around her slender waist, and sighed, "Moonlight, I'm sorry, Bi Bi Dong has already led her people to the Star Dou Great Forest..."
"It's alright, stopping the Spirit Hall's conspiracy is the priority. You can spend more time with me later."
Tang Yuehua pursed her lips, somewhat disappointed, but still very understanding.
After a pause, Tang Yuehua suddenly remembered something and changed the subject, saying, "Husband, since Bi Bi Dong has brought so many powerful figures, the Purple Micro Palace's own strength might not be enough. I'll have my elder brother come with you too."
"Well... okay."
Zhou Chen nodded. Tang Xiao's Soul Power Level was as high as 97. Coupled with the powerful force of the Clear Sky Hammer, his strength was probably similar to that of the Golden Crocodile Douluo of the Spirit Hall. He was indeed a powerful helper.
"Yes, with your older brother helping you, I feel much more at ease."
Tang Yuehua seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and chuckled, "I'm glad you don't mind me talking too much."
How could I blame you?
Zhou Chen gently kissed Tang Yuehua's smooth forehead, then said tenderly, "I know you're doing this for my own good."
"Good to know."
Tang Yuehua pouted, then reached out and wrapped her arms around Zhou Chen 'Zhou Chen neck, burying her pretty face in his chest, and whispered breathlessly, "I really don't want to leave. I want to stay in your arms all the time."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Chen felt a surge of warmth in his heart and tightly embraced Tang Yuehua's delicate body, as if he wanted to pull her into his arms.
With a wife like this, what more could a husband ask for?
