Meng Shu Offers His Daughter? Dugu Bo: Establish a Sect in Sunset City, Dominate Sunset Forest, Is Young Master Satisfied?
"Level forty-eight?!"
Hearing this number, Meng Shu and Chao Tianxiang gasped, freezing completely in their tracks.
Judging by Huang Yan's age, he was at most fifteen or sixteen years old.
A fifteen or sixteen-year-old level forty-eight Soul Ancestor?
This was no longer just a genius; this was a monster!
During the remainder of the journey, the atmosphere within the group underwent a subtle change.
Meng Yiran, who had previously been somewhat arrogant, was now like a curious little fan girl.
She followed closely by Huang Yan's side, her beautiful eyes filled with undisguised admiration and enthusiasm.
"Huang Yan, how do you usually cultivate?
How are you so powerful?"
"Let nature take its course, and experience a few more life-and-death battles, that's all."
Well, possessing Ma Hongjun—how could that not count as a life-and-death battle?
It was just that the one who died wasn't him, Huang Yan.
"Then, while you were deep in the Star Dou Great Forest earlier, did you encounter anything fun?
What do those ten-thousand-year soul beasts look like?"
"Fun is hardly the word; I just killed a few blind soul beasts along the way."
Facing Meng Yiran's rapid-fire questions, Huang Yan's expression remained indifferent, responding in a desultory manner.
Although he generally disliked noise, he had to admit that Meng Yiran's heartfelt admiration and affection did provide him with a decent amount of emotional value.
Furthermore, Meng Yiran was naturally pretty and moving, with a slender figure; having her by his side to feast his eyes on wasn't bad at all.
Huang Yan glanced at the girl smiling sweetly beside him, pondering to himself:
If things progress naturally later on, it wouldn't be impossible to take her for myself.
After all, according to my plans, once I ascend to godhood in the future, I will need to leave behind my own influence on the Douluo Continent.
Having my own descendants blossom all over this continent is quite a good choice.
Walking in front, Meng Shu and Chao Tianxiang naturally took in the interaction between the two behind them.
Chao Tianxiang lowered her voice, smiling as she nudged her old man's arm:
"Old man, look at this girl Yiran; her soul is practically being hooked away.
I've never seen her pay this much attention to any peer before."
Meng Shu stroked his beard, his aged face full of gratified smiles as he replied in a low voice:
"A peerless genius with such innate talent and a profound background—you couldn't find one even if you searched with a lantern!
This is a rare and ideal husband-to-be."
Chao Tianxiang nodded in agreement, a flash of shrewdness crossing her eyes:
"Indeed, if Yiran can really get together with him, that would be for the best.
Not only would Yiran have a good home, but our family would also have a massive backer for the future!"
Not long after, the four of them arrived smoothly at Heaven Dou City and headed straight for Dugu Manor.
In the manor's main hall, Dugu Bo, dressed in a green robe, was sitting upright in the main seat.
Seeing Meng Shu and the others walk in, he was just about to stand up to exchange pleasantries.
However, his gaze suddenly bypassed them and locked firmly onto Huang Yan, who was walking at the back.
Dugu Bo's pupils shrank, and he froze in place as if struck by lightning.
This... this aura...
A stormy sea surged within Dugu Bo's heart.
Although Huang Yan had not released his martial soul, the faint, superior pressure—a blend of the sacred and the scorching—was something he would never forget for the rest of his life!
This pure Bright Phoenix bloodline aura was exactly the same as that of the "senior" from back then!
Seeing Dugu Bo's strange expression, Meng Shu quickly stepped forward and spoke respectfully:
"Senior Poison Douluo, my wife and I have come as promised.
This is Young Master Huang Yan; we met him by chance on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest, and he said..."
"No need for introductions."
Dugu Bo snapped back to his senses, cutting Meng Shu off mid-sentence.
Under the shocked gazes of the three members of the Meng family.
The dignified Title Douluo, Dugu Bo, actually strode over to Huang Yan, bowed slightly, and spoke with undisguised reverence:
"You... are you a descendant of that senior?"
Huang Yan sat down in a guest chair with a calm expression, glancing at Dugu Bo indifferently:
"Great-grandfather sent me to find you.
It seems you haven't forgotten his aura."
Upon hearing this confirmation, Dugu Bo took a deep breath, his attitude becoming even more respectful:
"That senior saved my life and gave me a new lease on existence; how could I ever forget him!
Since you are the senior's great-grandson, you are my Young Master."
Dugu Bo cupped his hands and bowed solemnly:
"I, Dugu Bo, greet the Young Master!
I wonder, how has the senior been lately?"
Huang Yan waved his hand dismissively:
"The old man is used to living like a wandering crane; don't worry about him.
Since he asked you to be my guardian, you shall handle matters here in Heaven Dou City from now on."
"Rest assured, Young Master, I will certainly give my all!"
Dugu Bo agreed without a moment's hesitation.
To the side, Meng Shu, Chao Tianxiang, and Meng Yiran watched this incredible scene, completely petrified.
The dignified Poison Douluo was actually willing to serve as a guardian for a mere youth, even addressing him as "Young Master"?!
Just what kind of heaven-defying figure was this "great-grandfather" behind Huang Yan?
After a brief, deathly silence, Dugu Bo gave a light cough and turned to look at Meng Shu and Chao Tianxiang.
His expression returned to normal, though he kept a close eye on Huang Yan's reaction.
"Dragon Duke, Serpent Granny, since you have already agreed to join, let us discuss the serious business of establishing the sect."
Meng Shu and Chao Tianxiang quickly snapped out of their daze and nodded respectfully:
"We await your instructions, Poison Douluo."
Dugu Bo smiled slightly, then turned specifically toward Huang Yan, bowing slightly with a tone that clearly sought approval:
"Young Master, regarding this newly established sect, I have prepared a detailed plan over these past few days.
Please listen, and if there is anything improper, I ask that you correct me."
Huang Yan picked up the teacup at his side, took a light sip, and calmly uttered one word:
"Speak."
Having received permission, Dugu Bo perked up and immediately began to speak with enthusiasm:
"I intend to choose the sect's headquarters in Sunset City, just outside the Sunset Forest.
Although Sunset City is unremarkable, it is close to the Sunset Forest and rich in resources.
Once the sect is established there, we can directly control the soul beast resources of the entire Sunset Forest."
"As for the sect's foundation, I will provide the medicinal herbs I have collected over the years and my unique poison formations as the base.
With my reputation as a Title Douluo.
Added to the Martial Soul Fusion Skill of the Dragon Duke and Serpent Granny, which is enough to rival a Title Douluo.
Our high-level combat power will be absolutely second to none in the Heaven Dou Empire!"
Dugu Bo grew more excited as he spoke, his eyes burning as he looked at Huang Yan:
"In the early stages, we will recruit civilian soul masters with good talent but no backing, as well as some friends I trust.
The sect will be divided into inner and outer branches; I will lead the inner, responsible for resource allocation and military deterrence.
The Dragon Duke and Serpent Granny will lead the outer, responsible for daily operations and expansion."
"As long as we advance steadily, within five years, our new sect will surely rank among the top powers on the continent!"
Dugu Bo paused, asking with a face full of anticipation:
"Young Master, does this arrangement meet with your approval?"
Meng Shu and Chao Tianxiang nodded repeatedly, their hearts burning with excitement.
With a Title Douluo leading the way and such a detailed plan in place.
Coupled with the "great-grandfather" Huang Yan mentioned as the ultimate backer, it would be difficult for this sect not to rise!
Both of them looked at Huang Yan, holding their breath.
Waiting for Huang Yan's final decision.
