Qian Renxue took a deep breath and bowed solemnly to Gu Wuchen:
"Thank you for the reminder, Young Master Gu. I will remember this favor and repay you handsomely another day."
After saying that, she hurriedly left the villa with the Pufferfish and the Snake Lance Douluo.
After everyone left, Bo Saixi frowned and said:
" Chen'er, is it really necessary to go through all this trouble? Why not just take action and eliminate them directly?"
Gu Wuchen shook his head:
"There's no need. Xue Qinghe can handle it himself. We don't need to interfere in the internal affairs of the Spirit Hall."
Moreover, the previous princes died under mysterious circumstances, and Xue Beng had long been terrified. Pretending to be a Xue Beng was his only way to survive; this kind of thing was all too common in the royal family.
Snow Empress spoke calmly:
" Little Wuchen is right. The more someone knows how to be patient, the more ruthless they can be when they scheme."
Ice Empress immediately moved closer, glancing sideways at Bo Saixi with a mocking expression:
"Did you hear that? Sister Snow Empress understands perfectly. You're still too naive. You spend all your time on Sea God Island and have no idea how treacherous people can be."
Bo Saixi's face darkened:
"You're the naive one! I've lived for over a hundred years, what haven't I seen?"
"Then why did you just say to attack directly?"
"I just thought it was too much trouble!"
Gu Wuchen covered his forehead and said helplessly:
"Alright, alright, here we go again. If you guys have so much energy, why don't you go help me prepare? We're going to the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect tomorrow."
At the same time, the news of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan changing hands had spread like wildfire throughout the entire Douluo Continent.
Yu Luomian ascended to the position of sect leader with the strength of a level 93 Titled Douluo, and announced a comprehensive and in-depth cooperation with the Gu Clan.
This news sent shockwaves across the entire continent.
At the Shrek Academy, Yu Xiaogang's face turned deathly pale upon hearing the news.
He rushed out of the office like a madman and headed straight for Liu Erlong's residence.
" Erlong! Erlong!"
He abruptly pushed open Liu Erlong's door, panting as he looked at her:
" Yu Luomian has become the sect leader? What exactly happened? Where is my father?"
Liu Erlong sat in the chair, calmly looking at him:
"That's right, my father is now the patriarch of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Yu Yuanzhen has already abdicated."
Yu Xiaogang excitedly grabbed her arm:
"Abdicate? How could that be! My father is a level 95 Titled Douluo, how could he possibly abdicate!"
It must be Yu Luomian! Erlong, go and persuade your father to return the position of sect leader to him!
Liu Erlong abruptly shook off his hand, her tone icy:
"How do we persuade him? Do we make him relinquish the sect leader position he's already secured? Do we allow the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan to continue following Yu Yuanzhen, becoming reviled throughout the continent, losing all trade routes, and leaving their disciples without even cultivation resources?"
Yu Xiaogang said urgently:
"That doesn't excuse usurping the throne! Yu Yuanzhen is the rightful clan leader! What Yu Luomian is doing is utterly rebellious!"
"Outrageous?" Liu Erlong laughed, a somewhat desolate laugh. " Yu Xiaogang, you only care about your father's legitimacy. Have you ever cared about the life or death of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan? Have you ever cared about those collateral descendants who can barely afford to eat?"
"During his years in power, Yu Yuanzhen favored his own faction, suppressed dissidents, and withheld resources, which alienated everyone. This huge scandal is his own doing, and he has no one to blame but himself."
Yu Xiaogang was stunned; he had never thought of these things before.
In his heart, Yu Yuanzhen will always be that dignified father, the symbol of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
"My father becoming the sect leader will bring the Gu Clan family's cooperation to the clan, provide all disciples with better cultivation resources, and allow the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan to rise again. What's wrong with that?"
Liu Erlong looked at him, her eyes filled with disappointment.
"When you abandoned me and left the family for your theories, did you never think of it as a grave act of rebellion? Now you turn around and criticize my father?"
Yu Xiaogang's face turned red, and he opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a single word.
He felt a sharp pain in his heart as he looked into Liu Erlong's cold eyes.
He knew that Liu Erlong was still blaming him.
"You can leave now. This is a done deal, and no one can change it. Don't come talking to me about this again."
Liu Erlong turned around, her back to him, her voice devoid of any warmth.
Yu Xiaogang stared at her retreating figure, stood there for a while, lost in thought, before finally turning away silently.
Liu Erlong was left alone in the room. She slowly closed her eyes, her long eyelashes trembling slightly.
The past is the past; now, she only wants to look forward.
Liu Erlong slowly opened her eyes, the last trace of emotion in them vanishing completely.
The argument earlier didn't shake her resolve; instead, it made her even more certain that she had made the right choice.
Tomorrow, her father will formally announce her as the young patriarch of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan in front of the entire clan.
From then on, she was no longer just the vice-principal of the Shrek Academy, but the heir who could mobilize the resources of the entire family.
With the Gu Clan's Immortal Herb and resources, and the guidance of Young Master Gu, they have a lot of help.
Her father could leap from level 89 Soul Douluo to level 93 Titled Douluo, so why couldn't she?
One day, she too will be able to break through that insurmountable barrier and become a true Titled Douluo.
At that time, with two Douluo from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, plus the full cooperation of the Gu Clan, their strength will definitely surpass that of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and they will return to the peak of the Upper Three Sects.
As for Yu Xiaogang, all those entanglements of love and hate have long since faded away with time and this argument.
Let bygones be bygones; she can no longer be bound by the past.
Her future lies with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon.
Everything is moving in a positive direction.
" Zhu Zhuqing's development is quite good; perhaps we could consider taking her back to the sect."
Liu Erlong thought highly of Zhu Zhuqing, whose life had been the most bumpy among them.
On the other side, in the boys' dormitory of the Shrek Academy.
The room was dark and the curtains were drawn tightly shut.
Tang San sat on the edge of the bed, staring blankly at the ground.
Ever since he was publicly rejected by Ah Yin and then knocked unconscious and taken away by Liu Erlong, he has locked himself in his room, refusing to eat or drink, and has lost a lot of weight.
With a creak, the door was pushed open.
Tang Hao's tall figure walked in, and a hint of heartache flashed in his eyes when he saw his son's dejected appearance.
He slammed the door shut behind him and said in a deep voice, " Little San, I have a way to enhance your Martial Soul."
Tang San suddenly raised his head, a glimmer of light finally appearing in his eyes:
"Father? Really?"
"Really." Tang Hao nodded, but his tone carried a hint of heaviness. "But there's one condition: you need to become someone else's God's Attendant."
" God's Attendant?" Tang San was stunned, his face full of confusion. "Father, what is God's Attendant? Did the gods choose you?"
"That's right."
Tang Hao said in a deep voice.
"I was chosen by a dark god and received his legacy."
He promised me that as long as you are willing to become his God's Attendant, he can help you evolve your Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul into Dark Blue Silver Grass.
Its power is several times that of ordinary Blue Silver Grass, and it possesses inherent dark corrosive power, making it far stronger than your current Martial Soul.
