Blade Pointed at Yuanqing

This slap contained every bit of Dugu Yan's strength.

Yu Tianheng's face immediately began swelling at a visible rate.

That slap directly stunned Yu Tianheng!

As the eldest young master of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, when had he ever been slapped?!

Especially not in the face. Being slapped in public like this filled Yu Tianheng with immense humiliation.

Purple lightning wrapped around his entire body!

Arcs of electricity crackled across him!

"Ah..."

"I'll kill you!"

Yu Tianheng's eyes reddened as the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Spirit possessed him.

His palm covered in lightning, he charged straight at Dugu Yan.

Wu Qingkong was stunned by the scene as well.

"No way?"

"Is Yu Tianheng really going to kill Dugu Yan?!"

Wu Qingkong was just about to step in and stop him.

Yu Tianheng was extremely fast, and his massive lightning palm was about to strike Dugu Yan.

Yet just as it was about to touch Dugu Yan, he stopped in the end.

Yu Tianheng had merely lost his mind in a burst of fury earlier.

Now that he had calmed down, he immediately withdrew his hand.

He still loved Dugu Yan, after all.

Otherwise, why would he have asked his grandfather to speak with Dugu Bo and propose marriage?!

And why, after learning that Dugu Yan liked cake, would he have made his chef recreate it as quickly as possible before rushing it over to her?

It was only because Dugu Yan's actions earlier had humiliated him far too deeply.

That he had lost control and his senses for a moment.

But he truly loved Dugu Yan. Now that he had calmed down, how could he possibly really try to kill her?!

Yu Tianheng withdrew his hand, lowered his head, and said apologetically.

"I'm sorry, Yanyan. I said the wrong thing just now."

What he meant by saying the wrong thing was naturally his declaration that he would kill Dugu Yan.

As for his earlier words, "I'll tear Wu Qingkong's mouth apart."

He did not regret those words!

But to Dugu Yan, Yu Tianheng was apologizing for saying that he would "tear Wu Qingkong's mouth apart."

As for the words, "I'll kill you."

Dugu Yan naturally ignored them.

She did not believe Yu Tianheng would dare kill her.

Because she had a Titled Douluo behind her!

Even if the Poison Douluo was inferior to that old dragon of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect in direct combat.

A Titled Douluo was still a Titled Douluo, not someone just anyone could provoke!

If anything truly happened to Dugu Yan, Dugu Bo would definitely bathe the entire Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect in blood!

He would drag every member of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect except Yu Yuanzhen down to the grave with her.

No matter how foolish Yu Tianheng was, he would not drag the entire Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect down over a single slap.

What Dugu Yan did not know, however, was that Yu Tianheng had not stopped for the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect's survival, but because of his love for Dugu Yan.

Dugu Yan nodded.

"I hope this is the last time."

Yu Tianheng nodded.

"I understand!"

Yu Tianheng withdrew his hand and dispelled his martial spirit possession.

But just as he withdrew his martial spirit, a gust of wind and thunder sounded behind Yu Tianheng.

A ghostly figure appeared beside Yu Tianheng.

The figure moved swiftly.

In an instant, it struck Dugu Yan.

Dugu Yan immediately collapsed unconscious.

This sudden turn of events instantly drew everyone's attention.

Yu Tianheng rushed forward and caught Dugu Yan.

He shoved away the ghostly figure.

He roared furiously, "Elder Qing, what are you doing?!"

"Why did you attack Yanyan?!"

"Who told you to attack Yanyan?!"

The man addressed as Elder Qing was taken aback.

Elder Qing was a personal guard assigned to Yu Tianheng by the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect!

As one of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect's Twin Stars, Yu Tianheng was the sect's hope of entering the top two sects in the future.

Naturally, he had been assigned a personal guard.

Yu Yuanqing was one of the few Soul Douluo powerhouses in the clan. He had always protected Yu Tianheng closely, and when he saw his master publicly humiliated by Dugu Yan.

That slap had not merely struck Yu Tianheng's face.

It had struck at the dignity of the entire Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect.

In the current soul master world, who did not speak respectfully when mentioning the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect?!

The reputation of the world's number one beast martial spirit sect could not be insulted!

How could a dignified heir be publicly slapped?!

After Yu Yuanqing saw Yu Tianheng withdraw his hand, he naturally acted in fury on the spot.

But recalling Dugu Yan's identity and the Poison Douluo standing behind her.

Yu Yuanqing ultimately held back.

He did not harm Dugu Yan's life.

He merely knocked her unconscious on the spot, intending to have Dugu Bo go to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect and provide an explanation afterward.

Then Dugu Yan could apologize to Yu Tianheng.

That way, they could preserve the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect's dignity without slighting Dugu Bo.

Yu Yuanqing explained his thoughts to Yu Tianheng.

Yu Tianheng's expression immediately changed after hearing them.

"Yanyan hitting me is my business!"

"I'm willing to let Yanyan hit me. What does it have to do with you?!"

"Who told you to attack Yanyan?!"

"I don't need Yanyan to apologize to me. I should be the one apologizing to Yanyan."

"I was the one who failed to protect her..."

Yu Tianheng tenderly picked up Dugu Yan and laid her on the grass nearby.

At that moment, his eyes were full of tenderness as he looked at Dugu Yan.

Watching his young master act so lovestruck, Yu Yuanqing could only shake his head helplessly.

"This love-struck young master."

"Really is beyond saving..."

So many things had happened in such a short time, utterly beyond Wu Qingkong's expectations.

But considering that Dugu Yan had acted on his behalf.

Wu Qingkong still stepped forward and kindly reminded them, "I think you should send Dugu Yan back to the Poison Douluo instead of taking her to your sect."

"Otherwise, if she isn't home by then, Senior Poison Douluo will definitely worry."

"If you still make the Poison Douluo go to your sect and give you an explanation, things will definitely turn ugly!"

"You should know that Senior Poison Douluo isn't alone. He also has the Heaven Dou Imperial Family backing him!"

"If things truly turn ugly, one side will be her grandfather and the other her friend. Yanyan will be caught in the middle too!"

Yu Tianheng found the earlier words fairly pleasant to hear.

He thought Wu Qingkong had taken his warning to heart and was trying to placate him, which was why he had offered such a good suggestion.

But when Yu Tianheng heard that final "Yanyan," his expression immediately changed.

In Yu Tianheng's eyes, only two people in the world could call Dugu Yan "Yanyan": one was the Poison Douluo, and the other was naturally himself!

The intimate nickname "Yanyan" was his alone.

Even his teammates, Yu Feng and Oslo, could only call her Sister Yan!

Hearing Wu Qingkong call her "Yanyan" once again.

Yu Tianheng instantly flew into a rage!

The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Spirit possessed him once more!

Lightning radiance covered his entire body.

He roared himself hoarse at Wu Qingkong, "Didn't I tell you!"

"If you dare call Dugu Yan 'Yanyan' again."

"I will..."

"Tear your mouth apart!"

Wu Qingkong looked at the enraged Yu Tianheng, somewhat surprised.

It was only a form of address. What was there to fuss over?!

Why was the dignified young master of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect so petty?!

"Sorry, I forgot. I'm simply used to calling her that."

"I didn't react in time and it just slipped out. If you really mind, I won't call her that next time."

Wu Qingkong spread his hands helplessly.

To Yu Tianheng, that gesture was an extreme provocation.

The words, "I'm used to calling her that and haven't changed it."

Deeply stabbed Yu Tianheng's heart.

They meant that Wu Qingkong had called his Yanyan by such an intimate name more than once in private!

Yu Tianheng's face twisted from extreme fury.

Lightning continued to coil around his body.

Seeing Yu Tianheng's furious state, Yu Yuanqing stepped forward and stopped him.

"Young Master, let me handle this!"

"I'll drag this bastard brat and his entire family to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect."

"And make his entire family kneel before you and apologize!"

Wu Qingkong's expression darkened slightly upon hearing that.

"Sorry, I'm an orphan. I've always been alone, and besides..."

"I have my own matters to attend to."

"I don't have time to go to your Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect and apologize!"

"Handle your own affairs yourselves!"

With that, Wu Qingkong turned to leave.

But Yu Yuanqing did not take his words seriously and burst out laughing.

"Brat, I don't care whether you truly have something to do!"

"If you're scared, just say so."

"But even if you are scared, I won't let you off."

"An orphan, huh?!"

"No problem. At worst, I'll dig up all your family's graves, whip their corpses in the wilderness, and announce it to the world."

"So everyone can learn the consequences of offending the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect!"

After saying that, Yu Yuanqing began laughing loudly.

Wu Qingkong's expression changed instantly upon hearing this.

He had been raised by his grandfather since childhood. After Wu Changming failed his divine inheritance trial, the reason he chose to cling to life and forcibly hold on for one more breath was to raise Wu Qingkong.

His grandfather had always been the person Wu Qingkong respected most.

How could he allow his grandfather to suffer such humiliation?!

An ice-blue longsword appeared in Wu Qingkong's hand.

Holding the sword, he pointed its tip directly at Yu Yuanqing.

He said coldly, "You old bastard, say what you just said again if you've got the nerve?!"

"Believe it or not, I'll make Yu Tianheng's blood splatter right here?!"

"Others may fear your Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, but I don't!"

As his words fell.

The temperature in the forest plummeted.

The entire woods filled with an icy chill.

Snowflakes drifted down from the sky, settling on the ground.

In an instant, the ground was covered by a thick layer of ice.

The once lush green grassland was coated in frost.

Even though Yu Yuanqing possessed the cultivation of a Soul Douluo, he still...

Felt a bone-chilling cold...
