Plotting Against Chrysanthemum Douluo

"A coincidence of shared names?"

Yu Yuanzhen narrowed his eyes.

Could it really be that simple?

The surname Yu was not common on the continent.

The most iconic bearer of it was their own Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

Furthermore, according to what Yu Tianheng and the other had said, Yu Shuangbai's martial soul was an ice-attribute dragon type.

Ice Lizard, Ice Dragon...

There seemed to be some sort of similar characteristic between the two.

Could all of this really be explained away as just a coincidence of names?

Yu Yuanzhen suddenly thought of his own son, whose martial soul had mutated.

A guess suddenly rose in his heart.

Could this Yu Shuangbai also have undergone a martial soul mutation?

Only, unlike the malignant mutation of his own good-for-nothing son, had this one undergone a benign mutation?

Thinking of this, Yu Yuanzhen spoke slowly:

"Yu Song, is there anyone in the clan who is familiar with this Yu Shuangbai you speak of?"

Yu Song frowned, unsure of Yu Yuanzhen's intentions, but replied truthfully:

"That Yu Shuangbai was only a member of a branch family with very few relatives. After his parents passed away, he practically wandered the clan like a ghost."

"I have only seen his name in the clan registry, where I listed his disappearance in the sect records."

"As for anyone who might be familiar with him, I really..."

Yu Song did not finish his sentence, but his meaning was quite clear.

As an insignificant loner, how could he know who in the clan might be familiar with him?

Hearing this, Yu Yuanzhen's expression darkened.

He knew, of course, that this matter was not actually Yu Song's fault.

After all, he wouldn't pay attention to someone with mediocre aptitude who was of no consequence.

But the problem was, the current Yu Shuangbai was likely not that insignificant boy with the Ice Lizard martial soul.

He was highly likely to be the possessor of a mysterious Ice Dragon martial soul with a quality even higher than their Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon!

If a genius of this level had truly left their Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, wouldn't that be a massive loss for them?

Therefore, Yu Yuanzhen issued his command without the slightest hesitation.

"Go, notify everyone in the sect. Have everyone who knew the previous Yu Shuangbai come to me."

"I want to see if this Yu Shuangbai is truly a member of my Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan!"

"Yes!"

Yu Song dared not delay.

After acknowledging the order, he hurried toward the rear.

Having done all this, Yu Yuanzhen waved his hand, dismissing everyone else.

Sitting on the high seat of the Sect Master, his gaze was distant.

"A superior dragon martial soul that suppresses the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon..."

"Could it be someone from my Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan..."

Unaware of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's reaction.

Yu Shuangbai was currently leading Dugu Bo and Snow Emperor on an operation.

"Young Master, are you certain that Chrysanthemum Douluo has what you need?"

Dugu Bo glanced at Yu Shuangbai, who was standing to the side, and asked.

There was a clear hint of malice in his tone.

It was, of course, not directed at Yu Shuangbai.

It was directed at Chrysanthemum Douluo.

The relationship between Dugu Bo and Chrysanthemum Douluo was far from good.

The two had experienced some friction in the past.

Now that Yu Shuangbai had set his sights on Chrysanthemum Douluo, and with his own cultivation having broken through, plus the mysterious powerhouse Snow Emperor helping from the side, Dugu Bo was naturally feeling a bit of schadenfreude.

"Naturally." Yu Shuangbai nodded in agreement.

Indeed, his purpose for this trip was precisely to obtain all knowledge regarding immortal herbs from Chrysanthemum Douluo.

After all, there were still so many immortal herbs left in the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

It would be a terrible waste if they were not put to use.

Yu Shuangbai did not like waste.

He always preferred to maximize the value of everything.

Across the entire Douluo Continent, the only ones who possessed knowledge regarding immortal herbs were the original protagonist Tang San and Chrysanthemum Douluo.

That fellow Tang San was, after all, the original protagonist.

He might possess some inexplicable protagonist halo.

Or perhaps he had already caught the eye of the Asura God.

Furthermore, there was the Clear Sky Douluo nearby, guarding him with that bug-like skill of detonating spirit rings.

Therefore, Yu Shuangbai had no intention of targeting him for the time being.

Instead, he had set his sights on Chrysanthemum Douluo, the other person who knew about immortal herbs.

Yu Shuangbai was quite confident in his ability to handle Chrysanthemum Douluo.

This Titled Douluo had an extremely peculiar personality.

Not only was he somewhat effeminate, but he was also incredibly fond of flowers and plants.

He was particularly obsessed with rare and precious flora.

Yu Shuangbai was confident he could trade for the knowledge of immortal herbs from him.

As for failure...

Then he would simply have to ask Snow Emperor to intervene.

Yu Shuangbai was a man with some moral bottom lines, though not many.

When a trade was possible, it was best to resolve things peacefully; he did not intend to bully the weak.

But if a trade truly could not be made, he wouldn't mind bullying the weak just a little bit.

The rules of the spirit master world had always been this way.

His deal with Dugu Bo had been based on this intention from the very beginning.

It was just that the transaction had gone so smoothly that this second plan never had the chance to be executed.

In truth, Dugu Bo had actually been looking forward to the deal failing.

That way, relying on his breakthrough in cultivation and the help of a powerhouse like Snow Emperor, he could have properly settled old scores with Chrysanthemum Douluo.

However, since Yu Shuangbai, his savior, had such wishes, Dugu Bo would not go out of his way to cause trouble.

They had already scouted the information.

Chrysanthemum Douluo would be heading to a branch of the Martial Soul Hall to conduct an inspection as a representative of the Pope Palace.

This was the path he was bound to take.

Before long.

An orange figure appeared in the sky.

"Hmm-hmm-hmm~"

Chrysanthemum Douluo soared through the air, humming a melodious tune.

"Not being by the Pope's side, I feel so much more at ease!"

Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan couldn't help but sigh.

That Pope's personality was simply too extreme.

Even for a Titled Douluo like him, it felt like walking on thin ice.

Every step was taken with great trepidation, fearing that he might displease the Pope and invite disaster.

Moreover, because he and Ghost Douluo were the only two right-hand men under her command, she had piled a mountain of work onto them.

It had left him with so little time to tend to his flowers and plants.

But Chrysanthemum Douluo was one of the most timid among the Titled Douluos, and he dared not speak out in defiance.

Now, using the excuse of inspecting a branch hall to temporarily leave the Pope Palace, without that Pope looming over him, it felt absolutely wonderful!

He even sometimes regretted why he had joined the Pope Palace in the first place.

It was too late to withdraw now.

After all, given that Pope's overbearing personality, if he decided to quit the Pope Palace now, she would never let him off easily.

Thinking this, Chrysanthemum Douluo had already decided to take advantage of this good opportunity to properly relax.

However, three figures suddenly appeared before him.

The leisurely expression on Chrysanthemum Douluo's face changed instantly.

His aura surged, and he stared intently at the three people who had appeared before him.

His spirit power was already mobilized, ready to strike at any moment to deal with the situation ahead.
