Fire Qilin True Body, Suppressing a Titled Douluo

"Your Excellency, Teacher Lin Mu isn't here. If you need to see him, this junior can pass along your message."

Qin Ming hurriedly stepped forward and spoke respectfully.

Dugu Bo snorted coldly and said in an unquestionable tone, "Go tell him that I, Dugu Bo, have an important matter to discuss with him. If he dares make excuses and refuse to come—"

"He'll bear the consequences himself!"

As his words fell, the pressure of a Titled Douluo suddenly descended upon Qin Ming, making his body tremble slightly.

"Yes, this junior will go at once."

Qin Ming did not dare say another word and immediately turned to leave the training grounds.

Then, Dugu Bo's gaze fell upon Yu Tianheng. He was not particularly satisfied with the boyfriend his granddaughter had chosen.

Although Yu Tianheng possessed a top-tier beast Martial Soul like the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, his talent was not especially outstanding.

Moreover, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan was now lacking in both seasoned and rising talents.

Yu Tianheng had risked being poisoned to get close to Yan Yan, clearly intending to win over him, a Titled Douluo.

Feeling the Poison Douluo's scrutinizing gaze, Yu Tianheng felt as though a mountain weighed upon him. He forced himself to step forward.

"This junior, Yu Tianheng, pays respects to Your Excellency the Poison Douluo."

Dugu Bo glanced at him. Noticing that his Soul Power was already close to level forty, his expression softened slightly as he said coldly, "If not for the change in team leader, at your previous cultivation speed, it would have taken you at least another half year to break through level forty!"

Yu Tianheng looked embarrassed, yet he could not refute it.

"Grandfather!"

Seeing this, Dugu Yan quickly took Dugu Bo's arm and pleaded sweetly, "Tianheng has already been working very hard. Once he obtains his Fourth Soul Ring, his strength will definitely increase greatly."

Dugu Bo doted on his granddaughter immensely. With a snort, he temporarily spared Yu Tianheng and turned his attention to the others.

"Who is Tang San?"

Hearing his name, Tang San was about to step forward when Xiao Wu tightly grabbed his arm.

Tang San had no time to concern himself with Xiao Wu's emotions. He continued forward, cupped his hands, and said, "This junior, Tang San, pays respects to Your Excellency the Poison Douluo."

Dugu Bo sized up the somewhat immature youth before him. He was indeed much younger than Yu Tianheng.

"Not bad. To possess level thirty-four Soul Power at such a young age, your talent truly is—"

Before he could finish, Dugu Bo's pupils suddenly contracted. In that instant—

He had actually caught a faint trace of a soul beast's aura!

He immediately swept his gaze over the crowd again and instantly locked onto the girl hiding at the very back.

"A Hundred Thousand Year transformed soul beast!"

Delight burst from Dugu Bo's eyes. He had not expected that merely stopping by would allow him to find such a supreme treasure.

Though he was already a Titled Douluo and could no longer absorb Soul Rings, he could keep her captive and kill her when Yan Yan needed her.

Or he could simply kill her now and take her bone.

This was a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone, second only to a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring in preciousness.

Merely being targeted by Dugu Bo's gaze, filled with greed and killing intent, made Xiao Wu feel as if all the blood in her body was freezing. Her pretty face turned deathly pale, and her delicate body trembled slightly.

All of a sudden.

Everyone felt their vision blur. When their eyes focused again, Dugu Bo had vanished from where he stood.

When they shifted their gazes, Dugu Bo had already appeared before Xiao Wu and seized her by the throat.

It had happened far too quickly. No one had any time to react, and they could only stare at the scene in shock.

"Xiao Wu!!"

Tang San shouted and instantly launched an attack. Countless Blue Silver Grass vines, like enraged venomous snakes, swiftly lashed toward Dugu Bo.

"A mere Soul Elder dares attack a Titled Douluo?"

Dugu Bo sneered and moved slightly. Everyone's vision blurred once more, and they could not see his movements at all.

The next moment, Tang San flew backward like a cannonball and slammed heavily into the ground. Blood surged into his throat, and he spat out a mouthful of it.

"Kid, for your Master's sake, this old man does not wish to kill you. Don't fail to appreciate my kindness!"

Dugu Bo had deliberately held back some of his strength. If he killed Tang San, he would certainly offend Lin Mu, and dealing with his Martial Soul problem afterward would become troublesome.

As for this transformed soul beast, soul masters and soul beasts had always been mortal enemies. Since she had fallen into his hands, she was his property.

"Brother—ugh, ah~"

Xiao Wu had wanted to tell Tang San to leave, but Dugu Bo's grip around her throat was too tight for her to say a word.

Dugu Bo knew full well what a transformed soul beast represented. If word got out, it would definitely draw the covetous attention of other Titled Douluo.

Thus, he came up with an excuse.

"She is the descendant of one of my enemies. I never expected to encounter her here."

At his words, Yu Tianheng and the others finally understood. No wonder the Poison Douluo had attacked Xiao Wu—there was a reason behind it.

There was no denying that after a month of training together, they had developed some camaraderie. But offending a Titled Douluo over this was clearly impossible.

"Let her go!"

Tang San struggled to get up, his eyes bloodshot.

Dugu Bo frowned slightly at the sight.

Tang San actually had such deep feelings for a transformed soul beast. Once he grew stronger, or once his Master broke through to become a Titled Douluo, they would become no small problem.

"Better take them both away."

Just as Dugu Bo was about to make a move against Tang San, a cold, furious shout rang out from afar at that critical moment.

"How dare you touch what belongs to me!"

Before the words had even faded, a massive flaming blade dozens of meters long tore through the air from afar, carrying a terrifying force that seemed capable of burning everything to ash.

It slashed fiercely at Dugu Bo!

The enormous blade was formed entirely from dark green flames. Wherever it passed, even space twisted slightly.

It was Lin Mu's Fifth Soul Skill!

This soul skill came from a ten-thousand-year Hellfire Dragon and was already incomparably powerful.

With the Sixth Soul Skill's twofold amplification layered on top, it could even rival a Titled Douluo's Eighth Soul Skill.

Dugu Bo's expression changed drastically. The power contained in that attack actually made even him, a Titled Douluo, feel his heart tremble!

Without time to think, he decisively activated his Seventh Soul Ring. Green light surged around him as his Martial Soul Avatar instantly erupted.

"Seventh Soul Skill, Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor Avatar!"

A massive phantom of the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor coiled into view, attempting to withstand the earth-shattering slash head-on.

"BOOM!!"

The violent energy shockwave forced everyone nearby back. Yu Feng and the others, whose strength was weaker, were sent flying outright.

Before Dugu Bo could steady himself, a scorching heat and pressure that made his soul tremble came crashing down from overhead!

Immediately afterward, an unknown divine beast appeared in the sky, flames beneath its feet and burning scales covering its body. The pressure it radiated alone made even the Poison Douluo feel as though he were suffocating.

Even though the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor was a top-tier beast Martial Soul, it still had to bow before the Fire Qilin!

Could this person also be a Titled Douluo?

Dugu Bo was utterly horrified. His Soul Power had actually been suppressed by at least thirty percent.

"Stop!"

"Move again, and I'll kill her!"

Dugu Bo lifted Xiao Wu and threatened Lin Mu, who stood atop the Fire Qilin's back.

"How laughable. You captured her—what right do you have to tell me to stop?"
