The Underworld of Heaven Dou City

"Is this Heaven Dou City?"

"Damn it, the corruption! It's so corrupt!"

At the gates of Heaven Dou City, accompanied by Yue Guan, Nan Feng had arrived to strike down the forces of feudal corruption.

With Bibi Dong steadily advancing things over at Martial Soul Hall, he couldn't just sit idle. The great cause of anti-feudalism on the Douluo Continent was a long and arduous journey!

"Uh... take it easy." Yue Guan's eye twitched.

He had finally witnessed Nan Feng's talent for stirring up trouble.

At the coronation ceremony for the Honorary Elder, he had been so arrogant!

Calling Golden Crocodile "Brother" one moment, and Ling Yuan "Little Sister" the next!

If it weren't for the sake of Bibi Dong, and the fact that the Second Worship, Golden Crocodile, hadn't said anything, the other Title Douluo elders would likely have given him a beating right on the spot!

Nan Feng had originally intended to come alone. After all, the Martial Soul Temple in Heaven Dou City had three Spirit Douluo, and among them, Salas was an eighty-eighth-level Spirit Douluo. In a place like this, unless he ran into a madman like Tang Hao, Nan Feng wouldn't face any danger.

But Bibi Dong was worried. Gui Mei had been busy recently, responsible for receiving the spirit masters after the war and handling some unsavory matters, so she had him accompany Nan Feng on this trip to Heaven Dou City.

She claimed it was to provide personal protection!

Otherwise, she feared that Nan Feng could provoke ten people who wanted to beat him to death within three minutes!

"Take it easy?" Nan Feng frowned.

"Why should I?"

"I am a Martial Soul Hall Honorary Elder, for crying out loud! I just risked my life for Martial Soul Hall! I just bled for Martial Soul Hall! Who the hell would dare touch me?"

"Besides, you're a Title Douluo!"

"Damn it! With you here, who the hell would have water in their brain or be tired of living?"

"Dare to touch me?"

Yue Guan's eye twitched violently.

Bibi Dong was right!

This kid really couldn't stay out of trouble!

"To catch the bandits, you must first catch the ringleader. Let's go! Off to the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace!"

Nan Feng called out and strode forward.

Heaven Dou Imperial Palace.

Unlike most people, Xue Ye was quite pleased after receiving news of the Clear Sky Sect's crushing defeat. After all, the Clear Sky Sect had close ties to the Star Luo Empire; Martial Soul Hall striking at the Clear Sky Sect also dealt a blow to Star Luo to a certain extent, which was naturally a good thing for the Heaven Dou Empire.

Furthermore, the Clear Sky Sect had previously relied on its status as the number one sect in the world to repeatedly refuse to give him, the Emperor, any face.

Take Tang Yuehua, for instance. He had repeatedly proposed a marriage alliance with the Clear Sky Sect, wanting to bring Tang Yuehua into the imperial palace and bestow upon her the title of Imperial Noble Consort, but the Clear Sky Sect had rejected him time and again, even going so far as to threaten him.

Now, he wanted to see if the Clear Sky Sect could still afford to be so arrogant.

With their affiliated forces purged by Martial Soul Hall and now forced to the point of sealing their mountain and retreating from the world, he did not believe the Clear Sky Sect would still think about antagonizing the Heaven Dou Imperial Family.

"Your Majesty, something terrible has happened!"

Deep within the palace, just as Xue Ye was planning to go see Tang Yuehua, whom he had invited to the imperial palace, the anxious voice of the Head Eunuch rang out.

"What are you shouting about?" Xue Ye frowned slightly.

"What has happened?"

"Your Majesty, people from Martial Soul Hall have arrived," the Head Eunuch said.

"Martial Soul Hall?" Xue Ye was stunned.

"What are they here for? I won't see them. Tell them I am busy with state affairs, that I am ill and resting."

"Your Majesty." The Head Eunuch hurriedly trotted up to Xue Ye, blocking his path.

"What is the meaning of this? Are they insisting on seeing me?" Xue Ye said, displeased.

"Your Majesty, the one who came this time is not a Platinum Bishop, but an Elder!" the Head Eunuch said nervously.

Xue Ye was taken aback. "An Elder? Which Elder?"

"The new Honorary Elder of Martial Soul Hall, along with His Excellency Chrysanthemum Douluo, have both arrived. I fear they are already almost at the imperial palace," the Head Eunuch said.

"Chrysanthemum Douluo?" Xue Ye's expression tightened.

"What is he here for?"

Yue Guan had certainly made his fair share of appearances in Heaven Dou City in the past!

"They said that since the Honorary Elder has never been to Heaven Dou City before, they wanted to meet with Your Majesty first to... to say hello." The Head Eunuch's expression was somewhat unnatural.

This 'hello' was likely to be quite costly!

"Lead the way." Xue Ye's brows were tightly furrowed.

If a bishop had come, he could have gotten away with not seeing them, but this Elder was someone he could not afford to ignore.

"Don't go running off!"

Yue Guan grabbed Nan Feng, who had turned his head and was about to head in the direction of Xue Ye's harem.

"What's wrong?" Nan Feng asked, puzzled.

"Is there any place in this world I can't go?"

Yue Guan's eyelid twitched. "That is Xue Ye's harem!"

"Oh, and so?" Nan Feng looked confused.

"I've even slept in Bibi Dong's bedchamber. Could Xue Ye's harem possibly be more dangerous than the Pope's bedchamber?"

Yue Guan's eyelid twitched violently. "That's different!"

He still couldn't believe that Bibi Dong had actually gotten together with this kid, and it wasn't just some act—it was real!

Most of the time, Nan Feng really did have the audacity to sleep in Bibi Dong's room!

Now, everyone in Pope Hall knew that this Honorary Elder and the new Pope had an improper relationship!

There were even rumors in Elder Hall that Bibi Dong had used such methods to win Nan Feng over!

"Is Xue Ye more impressive than the Pope?" Nan Feng asked, puzzled.

"Of course not." Yue Guan looked as if he had a stomachache.

How was he supposed to explain this?

Or rather, did this even need an explanation?

An outsider, a man, breaking into someone else's harem?

What the hell was this called?

"Then that's that, isn't it?" Nan Feng turned his head and continued walking toward the harem.

"Don't misunderstand, I'm not trying to do anything. I just want to see the world. You know, I'm just a country boy. Isn't it normal for a country boy who hasn't seen much of the world to be curious?"

"What kind of bad intentions could a country boy like me have?"

Yue Guan sighed and had no choice but to follow him.

Bibi Dong had only told him to follow Nan Feng, not to stop him. Forget it!

Passing through a stretch of flowers and grass, Nan Feng arrived at the back garden of Xue Ye.

As for the guards encountered along the way, well, this was the imperial palace; there were no guards, only eunuchs.

Of course, it was also possible that Xue Ye simply never imagined they would head toward the inner palace.

"Hmm?"

Walking past a corner, Yue Guan's expression changed slightly when he saw a pavilion.

"What, an old flame of yours?" Nan Feng followed Yue Guan's gaze and saw a beautiful woman who looked to be in her twenties sitting inside the pavilion.

Yue Guan looked speechless. "That is Tang Hao's sister, Tang Yuehua."

"Tang Yuehua?" Nan Feng was stunned.

Why would she be in Xue Ye's inner palace? Could there be some unspeakable secret between them?

Yue Guan shook his head. "I don't know. In the past, when I came to Heaven Dou City, I went to the Moonlight Pavilion to listen to music. The music there is actually quite good."

Music?

Nan Feng's expression turned strange.

You, an elder of the Martial Soul Hall, went to the territory of the Clear Sky Sect to listen to music?

You really are a fascinating character!

"I see her expression isn't very good. Could there be some hidden story?" Nan Feng said.

"The Clear Sky Sect has been crippled; it would be strange if she had a good expression," Yue Guan replied.

Tang Yuehua was not a Spirit Master, so the affairs of the Spirit Master World did not directly involve her, but the strength of the Clear Sky Sect affected Tang Yuehua's footing in Heaven Dou City.

The Moonlight Pavilion was built and developed to its current scale solely because of the face given to the Clear Sky Sect. Now that the Clear Sky Sect had sealed its mountain and retreated from the world, Tang Yuehua's Moonlight Pavilion was likely going to run into trouble.

"What are you doing?" Yue Guan watched, bewildered, as Nan Feng walked toward Tang Yuehua.

"If the sister does not come to me, then I shall go to the sister," Nan Feng said without looking back.

"Huh?" Yue Guan's eyelid twitched.

"You wouldn't happen to be..."

"I smell the stench of dark, evil forces!" Nan Feng declared, radiating righteousness.

"As a Messenger of Injustice who opposes feudalism, landlords, and hegemony, I, Nan Feng, must fight these dark, evil forces to the end!"

"I shall rescue the suffering masses trapped in the depths of misery!"

"..." Yue Guan.

You brat, this is clearly just you being driven by lust!
