Annihilation! The Overconfident Dugu Bo Began Questioning His Life: This Old Man Was Suffering!

Qian Xunye gripped Yu Luomian's throat tightly and laughed. "Hehe, I even killed the Clear Sky Sect Master's younger brother. Why would I fear the younger brother of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's leader?"

"What...?! Tang Hao was... killed by you?" The composure on Yu Luomian's face finally collapsed, terror spreading across his features. "Y-You're the Dark Douluo who killed Tang Hao and shook the soul master world in recent years!?"

"Dark power, a nine-ringed Titled Douluo!"

"There's no mistake! This lord is the renowned Dark Douluo who has risen to fame in recent years!!"

"Heavens! It's actually him!"

The entire crowd erupted once more.

Yu Luomian was completely panicked.

He had even dared to kill Tang Hao of the Clear Sky Sect. How could such a madman possibly fear their Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan?

It was over. Yu Luomian knew that they likely could not escape death.

The fear of death filled his heart, and Yu Luomian hurriedly said, "Even if you are a Titled Douluo, you cannot stand against our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan! Our clan leader, Yu Yuanzhen, is a peak Rank 95 Titled Douluo. If he goes all out, he can rival a Rank 96 powerhouse!"

"Release my daughter and me, and I can guarantee that the grudge between you and our Blue Lightning Clan will be wiped clean. Otherwise, the Blue Lightning Clan will never let you go!!"

"Hahaha!" Qian Xunye threw back his head and laughed, his words brimming with unquestionable confidence. "I don't need you to let me go, nor do I need to wait for your entire clan to come. I will personally come to your door and slaughter the entire Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan."

Yu Luomian trembled. "Wipe out my entire clan? Demon, you're a demon!! You'll definitely pay the price!!"

"Heh. Die."

"No!!"

Splat~

The next second, Liu Erlong's and Yu Luomian's necks were instantly crushed by Qian Xunye's grip before he tossed their bodies to the ground.

"Erlong! Second Uncle! They're dead... They're all dead..." Yu Xiaogang fell into complete despair.

"Yu Xiaogang, there are still eight days left. Let's wait and see who else will come save you." Qian Xunye returned to the top of the high wall and lay back down.

At that moment, Notting City was in an uproar. Nearly the entire city was discussing the matter heatedly.

"That lord atop the high wall is actually the legendary Dark Douluo. H-He even killed the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's second-in-command!"

"This has truly blown up now. The Blue Lightning Clan definitely won't let this go. No matter how strong Dark Douluo is, he's only one person. Can he really fight the entire Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan?"

Standing at the orphanage entrance, Tang San could not help asking the animated crowd, "Elders, is the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan very powerful?"

"More than powerful—they're one of the Upper Three Sects!"

"The Upper Three Sects?" Tang San did not understand.

"That's right. Aside from a behemoth like Spirit Hall, the Upper Three Sects represent the strongest forces in the soul master world. Any one of them making a move would be enough to shake the entire soul master world!"

"No matter how strong Dark Douluo is, he can't possibly fight the entire Blue Lightning Clan!" a passerby said excitedly.

"They're that powerful?" Tang San was thrilled and excited. "Perhaps the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan can avenge me and get rid of him!"

The disturbance temporarily subsided.

Notting City gradually returned to calm.

Qian Xunye continued waiting silently for the person he was waiting for.

Meanwhile, elsewhere.

Chrysanthemum Douluo had arrived in Sunset Forest. Standing before Poison Mist Forest, he shouted, "Old Poison, get out here!"

"Hm?"

Dugu Bo, who had been sitting cross-legged in cultivation, instantly opened his eyes. His expression shifted slightly. "That sissy's voice—it's him! Chrysanthemum Pass!"

"Hmph! I was just worrying about finding him to settle the score, yet Chrysanthemum Douluo actually came to me himself!"

"Hahaha! Now that I have the power of the Dark Night Mark bestowed by my master, even if I'm still no match for Chrysanthemum Pass, it'll feel great to poison him badly and then run away!"

Dugu Bo immediately charged out.

Before long, he stood before Chrysanthemum Douluo.

"Chrysanthemum Pass! Die!" Dugu Bo was extremely decisive. Without another word, he unleashed his martial soul and attacked. "Third Soul Skill, Jade Phosphor Bewitching Formation!"

Green poisonous mist blanketed the entire area.

This move was not particularly toxic. Its main purpose was to confuse the opponent.

Dugu Bo's figure vanished.

Chrysanthemum Douluo stood calmly where he was and glanced around. "Old Poison, I didn't come here to fight you this time. I advise you not to bring suffering upon yourself."

"Hahaha! Bring suffering upon myself? Chrysanthemum Pass, I'm no longer someone you can handle so easily!" Dugu Bo laughed wildly, brimming with confidence and arrogance. "Enough nonsense, Chrysanthemum Pass. Die!"

"Dark Night Mark, first seal, release!"

"Second seal, release again!"

The Dark Poison Douluo's strength surged, and he instantly lunged out from the shadows.

"So Old Poison really was branded with the Dark Night Mark by Young Master Xunye. Heh, no wonder he's gotten so bold!" Chrysanthemum Douluo smirked as he turned and blocked Dugu Bo's punch.

"Not bad, Old Poison! This power of yours is quite strong. Unfortunately, I have it too!" Chrysanthemum Douluo smiled smugly and directly released the first two seals of his Dark Night Mark as well.

"What!!"

Seeing Chrysanthemum Douluo completely darkened as well, Dugu Bo was utterly dumbfounded, drenched in cold sweat. "T-This is the power of the Dark Night Mark!"

"Impossible! This is absolutely impossible! Why do you have it too!!"

"Hahaha! Come on then, Old Poison, keep acting so arrogant!"

"Sixth Soul Skill, Golden Stamen Surrendering to Flowing Radiance!"

"Oh no!!"

Bang! Bang! Bang!

"Ahhh~" Dugu Bo was violently blasted away on the spot.

"Old Poison, if not for Young Master Xunye's sake, I would definitely kill you today. I may not be able to kill you, but I can still give you a good beating! Hehehe~" Chrysanthemum Douluo smirked wickedly as he rubbed his fists together.

He immediately went all out, charging forward and pummeling the Poison Douluo.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

"Ahhh~"

Dugu Bo's screams rang out without pause.

After Chrysanthemum Douluo activated the power of the Dark Night Mark, his combat strength was comparable to Rank 96. Dugu Bo was no match for him at all. Before long, he was beaten black and blue and left sprawled on the ground.

His face was filled with doubt over his very existence. This old man was suffering...

"Heh."

Chrysanthemum Douluo withdrew his power and began speaking seriously. "Old Poison, don't be unconvinced. If I weren't afraid of beating you until you couldn't move, only to have to carry you to Notting City later, you wouldn't have suffered only these injuries today."

"Notting City? What do you mean!"

"Young Master Xunye—your master—ordered you to come with me to Notting City immediately. Let's go, Old Poison. Don't waste time," Chrysanthemum Douluo said.

"I never expected my master's reach to have already extended into Spirit Hall's upper ranks. Even someone like Chrysanthemum Douluo is under my master's command?"

Dugu Bo still did not know Qian Xunye's true identity. He sighed inwardly. Sigh, I thought that with the power my master gave me, I could finally regain some ground against Chrysanthemum Pass. I never expected Chrysanthemum Pass to have it too!

"Fine. Since it is my master's command, this old man will go with you!"

"But Chrysanthemum Pass, just you wait. I was the first person to receive the Dark Night Mark. This old man is my master's most important subordinate! With my master's guidance, I, Dugu Bo, will surpass you one day!" Dugu Bo was filled with fighting spirit.
