He scooped up his granddaughter and flew swiftly toward his mansion.

Leaving behind the Royal Fight Team's Yu Tianheng and the others, still standing there utterly bewildered.

Dugu Mansion.

The moment he landed, he saw the butler, Uncle Liu, walking out of the mansion carrying large bags and bundles.

"Old Liu, how are the preparations coming along?" Dugu Bo called out in a booming, spirited voice, a smile tugging at his lips.

Uncle Liu wiped the sweat from his brow with a trembling hand and replied, "There are still a few things left, and the larger items in the house aren't ready yet."

"And also—"

Before Uncle Liu could finish, Dugu Bo cut him off directly: "Only pack the essentials. Sell everything else, including this mansion."

At these words, not only Uncle Liu but even Dugu Yan, still nestled in her grandfather's arms, was stunned.

She quickly jumped down from Dugu Bo's embrace and hurriedly asked her grandfather, "Grandfather, if you sell all these things, where will we live?!"

"And you still haven't told me why you rushed to pull me out of the academy!"

Seeing his granddaughter's anxious and confused adorable expression, Dugu Bo chuckled softly and reached out to ruffle her hair.

"We're moving. We're leaving this place, leaving the Heaven Dou Empire, to go live somewhere else—a much better place."

"As for Heaven Dou Royal Academy, there's no need for you to stay there any longer."

"But, but!" Dugu Yan had a thousand questions she wanted to ask, but for a moment, she was at a loss for words.

Dugu Bo shook his head. "Enough, Yanyan. There's no room for discussion on this matter."

"When we get there, you'll understand just how wise your grandfather's decision really is."

With that, before Dugu Yan could speak, he turned to Uncle Liu and ordered, "Alright, Old Liu, keep packing. Speed it up."

"Yes, Master!" Uncle Liu hurried back into the mansion to take care of everything.

Just then, the Ye Mansion next door seemed to notice the commotion.

A graceful, elegant woman with a stunning figure stepped out from within.

Seeing the piles of bags and bundles before her, a hint of confusion flickered in her eyes.

"Lord Dugu, what are you doing?"

Dugu Bo saw who it was and let out a light laugh. "Haha, so it's Xiao Ye."

"I'm preparing to leave Heaven Dou City. I'm in the middle of getting everything ready."

At this, the beautiful woman gasped in surprise, covering her mouth. "What?! You're leaving Heaven Dou City?!"

"Where are you planning to go? Will you ever come back?"

Dugu Bo ignored his granddaughter's displeased glare and continued to hold her soft, emerald-green short hair.

He spoke with a faint smile. "A truly wonderful place. I plan to settle down there and won't be returning."

"That's why I came back now to pick up Yanyan."

Just then, Dugu Yan's dissatisfied voice rang out. "But Grandfather, I don't want to leave Heaven Dou City."

"Lingling and the others are still waiting for me at the academy."

Dugu Bo, who usually doted on his granddaughter, shook his head firmly this time. "Yanyan, don't be difficult. This is the one thing that's not up for discussion."

"Hmph!" Dugu Yan turned her head away in annoyance, refusing to acknowledge her wicked grandfather any longer.

Meanwhile, Lady Ye's willow-like brows were tightly knit.

Her Ye family had managed to establish a foothold in Heaven Dou City thanks to their family martial soul's abilities and the goodwill they had built up over the years.

But the most important factor was the protection of a Title Douluo like Dugu Bo.

And now Dugu Bo was leaving...

So suddenly that it left Lady Ye at a complete loss.

Seeing the deeply conflicted expression on Lady Ye's face, Dugu Bo's eyes flickered as if an idea had struck him.

The Ye family's inherited martial soul, the Nine Star Begonia, could be called the number one auxiliary healing martial soul on the continent.

In Dugu Bo's eyes, even the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda—renowned as the continent's top auxiliary martial soul from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect—couldn't compare.

He had just joined the Bright Realm and had yet to render any service. How could he establish a foothold there?

But if he brought the Ye mother and daughter into the Bright Realm, with such a powerful auxiliary martial soul, wouldn't that be a great achievement?

Without further hesitation, he spoke to Lady Ye. "Xiao Ye, why don't you bring Lingling and come with me?"

"This..." Lady Ye was even more conflicted upon hearing this.

The Ye family had already been deeply rooted in Heaven Dou City for many years—if they were to leave just like that...

Dugu Bo spoke again: "I intend to join the Bright Realm."

"The Bright Realm?!" ×2

Both Dugu Yan and Lady Ye exclaimed in shock at the name.

Ignoring their astonishment, Dugu Bo continued:

"And you know about the ailment in my body—even you couldn't cure it completely, but they promised they could resolve it."

"You should understand the weight of that."

With that, Dugu Bo paused briefly, then looked up and sighed:

"Now that the world is in turmoil, your Ye family possesses such a Martial Soul—you ought to make plans early."

At these words, Lady Ye's body stiffened.

As the head of the Ye family, ever since the Heavenly Screen descended, she had sensed the upheaval sweeping the continent.

And with the Ye family possessing the powerful Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul, there was no way they could stay out of it.

She had originally thought that with Dugu Bo's protection, there would be no major trouble.

But now, it seemed there was a better choice.

After only a moment's deliberation, Lady Ye made her decision: "Alright! I'll leave with Your Excellency."

Then, with some concern, she added: "I just wonder if the Bright Realm will deem us worthy..."

Dugu Bo burst into laughter: "Don't worry, Xiao Ye. With the uniqueness of your Martial Soul, the Hall Master and the others will definitely be willing to accept you."

"Then I am relieved." Lady Ye gave a faint smile and returned to her residence to begin preparations.

After a short while, both families had everything ready.

Dugu Bo dismissed the servants from his estate, taking only his longtime steward, Uncle Liu.

As for Lady Ye, she sent away everyone in the household, intending to bring only her daughter along.

Then, Dugu Bo led his group back to Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

He was about to take the bewildered Ye Lingling and leave.

But just then, Qin Ming, having received word, rushed over.

When he saw Dugu Bo and the others carrying large bundles, he immediately sensed trouble and hurried forward to block them: "Wait! You can't take Lingling and the others away."

At these words, the atmosphere in the scene froze.

"Yanyan, Lingling, where are you going?!"

"Yeah, yeah?"

"Are you really leaving Heaven Dou Royal Academy?"

Yu Tianheng and the others from the Royal Battle Team also began asking questions.

Dugu Bo, however, ignored them and prepared to take Ye Lingling and the others away directly.

Seeing this, Qin Ming grew frantic and stepped forward to grab Dugu Bo's arm.

"Stop! You can't take them away."

"Hm?" Dugu Bo furrowed his brow, his aura spreading outward.

Feeling the terrifying pressure from Dugu Bo, Qin Ming's tone immediately softened: "At least... give, give me a reason."

Dugu Bo's Soul Power surged, and Qin Ming spat blood as he was sent flying backward.

"Hmph! Since when does This Seat need to report to you for anything I do?!"

Seeing Yu Tianheng about to step forward and block him again, Dugu Bo warned: "For the sake of that Old Dragon, I can't be bothered with you."

"But don't push your luck!"

With that, he paid no further heed to the stunned crowd from Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

Dugu Bo led Lady Ye and the others away swiftly, heading for the Sunset Forest.
