Compared to the excitement on Qian Renxue's side, Yu Tianlong was having an utterly miserable time!
Because he had discovered that the gap between him and a Soul Saint really did seem rather large!
They were on completely different levels!
Even though Liu Erlong was injured, she had not been hurt anywhere vital!
And her fighting strength had not been affected in the slightest. If his Third Soul Skill had not countered her...
Yu Tianlong suspected he would already have been beaten into mincemeat!
Having faced reality, Yu Tianlong had no intention of letting this continue.
Because he could feel Cho'Gath's physical condition deteriorating rapidly.
After all, a Soul Saint's fists were no joke. Every punch sent flesh and blood flying!
And after Cho'Gath had accompanied him for these two years, Yu Tianlong had long since stopped treating him as a Martial Soul or a mere appendage of his own.
He was his companion, his family!
He could not bear to watch Cho'Gath suffer serious injuries because of him!
So, looking at Qian Renxue, who still remained unmoved, he drew a deep breath and shouted:
"Big brother, help me!"
After hearing Yu Tianlong's words, Qian Renxue did not hesitate and immediately gave a meaningful glance.
After receiving Qian Renxue's signal, Snake Lance and Pufferfish suppressed their Soul Power somewhat and concealed their presence as well.
Only then did they appear beside Liu Erlong!
They used their Soul Power to drag Liu Erlong away!
But Liu Erlong, already red-eyed and out of her mind, still tried to attack Pufferfish and Snake Lance after being interrupted!
Who were those two? Although they had suppressed their Soul Power down to the Soul Douluo level, subduing Liu Erlong was still extremely easy!
After all, of those who could cultivate to become Titled Douluos, which one was not a genius?
Nor did they have any intention of showing tenderness toward a beauty. When they saw Liu Erlong attack them, they raised their hands and delivered several resounding slaps!
Only after being struck did Liu Erlong regain a measure of clarity. Looking at the two men before her, a trace of venom flashed in her eyes.
But Liu Erlong was no fool either. Knowing that the circumstances were against her, she immediately forced down her killing intent and buried all her hatred deep in her heart.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince, what is the meaning of this? I was dealing with an internal matter of our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. Aren't you afraid our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan will hold you responsible for suddenly interfering?"
Hearing Liu Erlong threaten her, Qian Renxue was struck speechless.
No wonder trash like Yu Xiaogang had managed to win Liu Erlong over.
Although the Upper Three Sects were incredibly powerful, their relationship with the empire was one of mutual dependence. Their powerful top-level fighters did not mean they could do whatever they pleased!
Otherwise, what was the point of the empire's existence?
Otherwise, why was the empire not a vassal of the Upper Three Sects?
Otherwise, why had Spirit Hall not simply abolished the empire?
There was far too much involved in all this.
So when Liu Erlong said the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan would make trouble for the Heaven Dou Empire over something like this, Qian Renxue only wanted to laugh!
"Dean Erlong, I have great respect for you, but calling this interference in your internal affairs is rather misleading."
"First, little brother Xiaolong has already severed ties with your Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. That is a fact, and he has no intention of returning. How can he count as a member of your clan?"
"Second, Yu Tianlong is my younger brother, which also makes him my imperial father's adopted son, as well as an honored guest of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. You want to kill him. What exactly do you mean by that?"
"Could an illegitimate daughter raised outside the clan like you possibly represent the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan in declaring war on our Heaven Dou Empire?"
Hearing Qian Renxue's words, Liu Erlong immediately frowned.
After all, she truly was not in the right in this matter!
But Liu Erlong was no ordinary woman. She had more than a little overbearing arrogance in her!
"Then, according to you, Your Highness the Crown Prince, you deliberately intend to make an enemy of our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan?"
Seeing that Liu Erlong was still acting like this, Qian Renxue did not even want to waste another word on her.
But to keep Yu Tianlong's future from being disrupted, she patiently added another remark.
"Think whatever you like, but if you and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan behind you dare attack Yu Tianlong, our Heaven Dou Empire will treat your actions as a declaration of war!"
"Think carefully about what that means. If you cannot understand it, you can go back and tell your father. They will understand!"
After saying this, Qian Renxue went straight to Yu Tianlong's side, took his hand, and headed out of the academy!
Yu Tianlong did not resist, though before leaving, he recalled the rather badly injured Cho'Gath into his body.
And silently said a few words in his heart.
"Thank you for your hard work, Little Cho!"
"As long as you're all right, Master!"
"Mm!"
Inside Blue Tyrant Academy, Liu Erlong watched Yu Tianlong being led away. Various emotions flashed through her eyes before finally turning entirely into resentment!
"Why couldn't you just obediently do as I said!"
"You're no longer trash, but what about Xiaogang?"
"An eight-year-old level thirty-four Soul Elder-you certainly are a genius. But does a genius who hasn't grown up count as a genius?"
Clearly, Liu Erlong had no intention of listening to Qian Renxue's advice.
Had Yu Tianlong still been there, he would certainly have understood Liu Erlong's thinking very well.
Yes, a genius who had not grown up was no genius!
By the same token, in Yu Tianlong's eyes, no clan could flourish forever!
Before today's incident, Yu Tianlong had still thought that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan was his grandfather's and parents' home, and that he would simply ignore them at most!
But now he had changed his mind!
He could not allow a clan that regarded him with apprehension to exist in this world!
Ten years. Ten years at most!
In ten years, the night would come when the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan was exterminated!!!!!
After leaving Blue Tyrant Academy, Qian Renxue looked at Yu Tianlong, her face filled with apology.
"Little brother Xiaolong, I'm sorry. I didn't expect things to turn out like this either..."
Yes, when she had seen Liu Erlong searching so anxiously for Yu Tianlong earlier, she had thought Liu Erlong genuinely cared about him!
She had never expected Liu Erlong to start berating him the moment they met.
And for it to finally escalate into a fight to the death.
All she could say was that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan certainly lived up to its name. There were hardly any normal people in that clan!
The clan leader, Yu Yuanzhen, was obstinate and self-serving, the clan uncle stole fame by deceiving the world, the clansmen threw stones at someone already down a well, and even this aunt had a head full of romance.
And the one she loved was her own older brother.
It was no wonder Yu Tianlong wanted to cut ties with a clan like that!
After hearing Qian Renxue's apology, Yu Tianlong fell silent for a moment as well.
His feelings toward Qian Renxue were rather complicated at this point.
She had saved him. That was an undeniable fact!
So he did not mind if she wanted to use him. It could speed up his growth anyway.
But her endless tests still left Yu Tianlong somewhat displeased.
"Big brother, I hope nothing like this happens again. I don't want cracks to appear in our relationship."
After freezing for a few seconds, Qian Renxue's gaze gradually grew serious. She looked at Yu Tianlong for a long while before finally saying one word.
"All right."
