Yu Tianheng Chose to Charge

"Let me ask one last time. What you said last night wasn't a joke?"

In the corridor outside the cafeteria, Ye Lingling looked seriously at her close friend.

"Didn't you ask me a dozen times yesterday? I'm serious, and I'm not planning to bring in just you."

Dugu Yan gave her a definite answer.

"Then that's fine. Saves someone from turning against me later."

They were close friends, after all. Ye Lingling still treasured their relationship.

"So, our frosty fairy agrees?"

"Of course. Since you recommended it so strongly, Yan, wouldn't refusing be a slight to you?"

Seeing Ye Lingling still maintaining that cool expression, Dugu Yan could not help wondering whether she could keep it up while Yu Yuan pinned her down.

I'll give her a push when the time comes!

Thinking of the expression Ye Lingling might reveal, Dugu Yan felt delighted.

"Come on, let's eat."

After the two returned to the academy, it was time for a certain fellow from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan to make his appearance.

Yu Tianheng.

He had started pursuing Dugu Yan after enrolling last year.

After all, both her looks and the Titled Douluo backing behind her were highly attractive to Yu Tianheng.

Unfortunately, what he did not know was that the goddess he had painstakingly pursued had already been shaped by someone else.

Yu Tianheng had not come to the academy yesterday due to clan matters, so he naturally did not know that Dugu Yan had already told some people she had a lover.

He was still irritated by the uncle who had returned to the clan yesterday to request assistance.

That uncle called Yu Xiaogang was supposedly trash back in the day.

And he had even brought trouble upon the clan.

Yet now he had returned claiming that the origin of his martial soul had been taken from him two years ago, and that he needed the clan to provide resources for his recovery.

Seriously, who would even want the martial soul origin of trash like you?

Weren't they afraid their martial soul would turn out like yours—a pig that could only fart?

Yet the clan head had actually agreed.

Because of that, the clan's cultivation resources for this month had been temporarily withheld.

Sigh, I really need to latch onto a rich woman.

Dugu Yan was the rich woman Yu Tianheng had chosen. After all, her grandfather was a Titled Douluo.

And she was his only descendant. As long as he latched onto her—

Wouldn't that be the same as inheriting the Poison Douluo's fortune?

But before he could finish fantasizing, Osro, one of his lackeys at the academy, came looking for him.

"Boss, it's urgent!"

"Whatever it is, wait until I find Yan first."

Yu Tianheng was brimming with confidence and badly needed to go show off his charm.

"Uh..."

Seeing the confidence on his boss's face, Osro suddenly could not bear to tell him the news.

But it was obvious that the blissful expression on Sister Yan's face yesterday when she spoke of her lover could not have been fake.

And that blockhead Shi Mo had even dared to ask what Sister Yan thought of their boss at the time.

As a result, Sister Yan had poisoned him on the spot until he was half-dead, and she had even declared that she had nothing whatsoever to do with their boss.

Remembering everything that had happened yesterday—

Osro's gaze toward Yu Tianheng was filled with pity.

Boss, you've got it rough.

Still, he had to shatter the man's fantasy. Sister Yan was already over level thirty, and her third soul skill was ridiculously powerful.

If his boss did not let go now, he would definitely be poisoned to death by Sister Yan in the heat of romance.

"Boss, it's news about Sister Yan."

"Oh? Has Yan decided to accept my pursuit?"

Yu Tianheng was thrilled. Did he finally have a claim to the Poison Douluo's inheritance?

"No. Also, Boss, I suggest you stop calling Sister Yan that in the future. She'll beat you to death."

"Why?"

Yu Tianheng was confused.

"Because Sister Yan already has a lover!"

"Huh?"

Yu Tianheng was confused again.

Yu Tianheng doubted.

Yu Tianheng faced reality.

After repeatedly confirming that Osro was neither joking nor passing on false information—

That Dugu Yan had admitted it herself, and had even begun living with the other person—

It hurt.

It hurt so much.

My fortune...

Ah, no.

My goddess.

Gone. Yu Tianheng was speechless. Why were all the terrible things happening at once?

It had to be Yu Xiaogang's fault. Ever since he came back, nothing had gone right for him.

Damn it!

If he were not his uncle, Yu Tianheng would have personally driven him out.

Besides, Yu Xiaogang definitely could not beat his level-thirty-one self.

Right!

Level thirty-one!

Yu Tianheng suddenly looked at Osro beside him.

"Did Dugu Yan mention how strong her boyfriend is?"

"Huh? She didn't say specifically, but he seems stronger than her in every way."

Although Osro did not know why his boss was asking, he honestly answered the question.

Stronger than Dugu Yan.

Right. Otherwise, the Poison Douluo would not have agreed to let them start living together.

But it did not matter.

Dugu Yan had only been level twenty-nine before, and he himself had only broken through with difficulty. She had to be slower than him.

So her boyfriend's strength should be about the same as his.

In other words, as long as he defeated him, he still had a chance.

Thinking this, Yu Tianheng immediately prepared to find Dugu Yan.

"Boss, why are you running so fast?"

"I'm going to spar with Dugu Yan's boyfriend!"

With that, he waved his hand and ran off without looking back.

For the fortune...

No.

For love, I will firmly declare—

I will win!

As for what Osro was thinking?

It was this.

So you ran off that fast to court death, Boss?

Osro did not know Sister Yan's lover's true strength, but Sister Yan's level was already higher than his boss's!

Boss, you can go this far for your love?

I, Osro, underestimated you.

Though there's no need for you to face an enemy you simply can't beat.

But I'll support you in my heart.

As for how he would support him?

Naturally, by offering every kind of help except actual help.

He did not want to get poisoned. Agreeing to deliver the message had already put his life on the line, all right?

Hopefully, his boss would not die.

"Achoo."

Strange. Can my physique still make me sneeze?

Yu Yuan, who was discussing beast-taming contracts with Little Dragon, did not think anyone was talking about him at all.

After all, he barely knew anyone, and most of those people had been given communication soul tools.

Speaking of communication soul tools, the device beside Yu Yuan rang.

He flipped open the phone.

Hmm?

Sister Yan said someone wanted to spar with him?

What level were they?

Yu Yuan chose to play it safe. What if the other side was a Titled Douluo?

But upon seeing Dugu Yan's reply, Yu Yuan's expression could not help turning strange.

A level-thirty-one Soul Elder?

I think I know why I sneezed.

So someone was rushing over to offer himself up to die.

"Reject him. He's too weak. He doesn't even count as fish fry."

Yu Yuan had no intention of wasting precious research time on crushing weaklings.

He was only a Soul Elder, anyway. Sister Yan should be able to handle him herself, right?

Then Yu Yuan saw another message.

Damn!

He actually dared to poach my woman?

I'll kill you within three hours and scatter your ashes for you.

Yu Yuan decided that he would kill the other side a few times first to vent his anger.

Only then would he allow him to live.

I must end the enemy's life immediately!
