Taichu: "Yu Tianheng, I See a Shadow of My Uncle in You!"

At those words.

Dugu Yan's face instantly darkened.

"What does this have to do with you? What gives you the right to meddle in my affairs?!"

She spoke with obvious hostility.

Ever since that incident, all of her goodwill toward Yu Tianheng had been wiped clean. Even though he had recuperated for several months before returning to Heaven Dou Royal Academy, she remained just as cold toward him when she saw him again.

But he simply would not stop pestering her.

Sending flowers!

Using overly intimate forms of address!

Driving away a whole group of her suitors!

In short, Yu Tianheng had done all those things. It could even be said that he already regarded her as his private property. Having realized this, Dugu Yan found herself even less able to feel any goodwill toward him.

Therefore.

Over the past two years or so, Yu Tianheng had not brought his relationship with Dugu Yan closer. Instead, he had only pushed her farther and farther away.

It could even be said that if Dugu Yan's Soul Power Level had not merely become roughly equal to Yu Tianheng's, while he still held the advantage of his Martial Soul and she remained unable to defeat him after his Dragon Transformation—

Otherwise, Dugu Yan would have long since fought him, beaten him flat, and told him to get lost!

As for this situation.

Dugu Bo could not personally intervene either. After all, Yu Tianheng's identity was special. He was a Direct Descendant of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, and his talent was astonishing. Not To Mention, he was only pursuing her; it was not as though such a matter warranted intervention.

In the end, it could only be left unresolved.

Thus, Yu Tianheng had continued fawning over Dugu Yan throughout the past two years.

Upon hearing that.

Yu Tianheng's face darkened as well.

"Kid, get out here and fight me one-on-one."

Rather than challenge Dugu Yan, he immediately fixed his gaze on Taichu beside her and challenged him.

To him, this was a chance to display his strength, as well as a warning to everyone around them.

"Yu Tianheng, don't go too far!"

Dugu Yan's face instantly darkened. She was about to Summon Own Martial Soul, but Taichu reached out and caught the hand she had raised to attack. At the same time, he Stepped Forward himself.

"I'm standing here. What are you going to do about it?!"

Taichu gazed calmly at Yu Tianheng. Though he had not summoned his Martial Soul, the pressure he gave off under normal circumstances was still terrifying.

Sure enough, Yu Tianheng froze on the Original Spot.

He vaguely felt that Taichu seemed a little familiar!

However.

He quickly tossed that thought aside.

The woman he wanted was about to be taken from him. What else was there to talk about?

Of course—it was time to fight!!!

Although he had yet to win Dugu Yan over, Yu Tianheng had already lowered himself somewhat over the past two years in order to successfully win over Dugu Bo, a wild Titled Douluo.

Even.

Taichu vaguely saw a trace of his Uncle in Yu Tianheng.

Why only a trace?

Naturally, it was because his Uncle, Su Yuntao, was a veteran simp. After comparing Yu Tianheng to his uncle's model, Taichu could clearly analyze exactly what a simp was like.

"The loser leaves Yanyan!"

Yu Tianheng declared arrogantly.

In his eyes, he was a Genius. How could he possibly lose to Taichu? That would simply be absurd.

"Sister Yan is a person, a person with thoughts of her own. What she does and whom she chooses are Sister Yan's freedom. It's none of your business!"

Taichu let out a Cold snort.

At those words.

Dugu Yan was deeply moved. Over the past two years, perhaps because of the lingering effects of the trauma Yu Tianheng had suffered from Taichu's Tsukuyomi, he had completely exposed his true colors.

In any case, Dugu Yan had truly had enough of Yu Tianheng these past two years. But he had influence behind him and simply would not stop pestering her.

No matter what, Dugu Yan's goodwill toward Yu Tianheng had completely fallen to zero.

"Enough nonsense!"

Yu Tianheng directly unleashed his Soul Power Level. It was only Level 33, yet Taichu was thoroughly stunned upon seeing it. If he remembered correctly, when he had seen Yu Tianheng a year and a half ago, his Soul Power Level had seemed to be at Level 31.

Yet now.

Two years had passed, and his Soul Power Level had only risen by two levels?

If this counted as a Genius, then this Genius was far too pathetic!

"Be careful. Don't be fooled by the fact that Yu Tianheng's Soul Power Level has not improved much. The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan cultivates Dragon Transformation, so part of the energy they cultivate is absorbed by the Dragon Transformation itself."

"So let your sister handle this."

As she spoke, Dugu Yan Stepped Forward without hesitation, shielding Taichu behind her while summoning her Nine-Colored Heaven Serpent Martial Soul.

Following her Martial Soul Possession.

Her Level 48 Soul Power Level was released without the slightest concealment.

At the same time, four Soul Rings—yellow, yellow, purple, purple—slowly emerged.

Her Soul Ancestor level was fully revealed.

Yu Tianheng's expression instantly changed.

"Weren't you only Level 38? How is that possible?!"

He could not accept Dugu Yan's strength, and he was utterly dumbfounded.

Not long ago, her Soul Power Level had only been Level 38. Yet in the blink of an eye, she had directly become a Level 48 Soul Ancestor.

In such a short time.

She had gained ten whole levels.

Even if he had been unconscious for another month, it should not have become this outrageous!

Not To Mention.

Her Martial Soul had changed as well. Though both were serpents, this clearly did not look like a Jade Phosphorous Serpent.

"That's none of your concern!"

"If you want to fight, then fight me!"

Dugu Yan gave a Cold snort, with no intention of explaining anything further to him.

"I..."

Yu Tianheng's expression turned ugly as well.

He truly had wanted to fight just now, but his confidence came from his own strength. Though his Soul Power Level was only Level 33, he possessed the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, the number one Beast Martial Soul in the world. Even if she was a Soul Ancestor, he could still contend with her.

But.

Against Dugu Yan's Level 48 Soul Power Level, he truly had no confidence.

At this.

He gritted his teeth and glared fiercely at Taichu, who was being shielded behind Dugu Yan.

"Kid, if you're a man, don't hide behind a woman."

Yu Tianheng attempted to provoke him with words.

"Heh heh!!!"

Taichu sneered and looked at him disdainfully.

"Sister Yan is protecting me. What, you don't like it? Then get lost already if you don't!"

He wanted to use provocation to force him into fighting?

Hmph!

Did he think I'd fall for that?

Besides, Yu Tianheng was nothing more than someone he had defeated before. If revealing his Martial Soul and Soul Rings would not have drawn too much attention, he would have displayed them on the spot and instantly defeated Yu Tianheng again!
