After some searching, Xiao Xuan obtained all of Tai Jian's assets, and only then did he stand up with satisfaction.
However, he was not in a hurry to return to the academy.
Instead, he looked down at Tai Jian's corpse, a cold smile curling at the corner of his mouth.
" The Strength Clan..."
"Heh, since you dared to send someone to assassinate me, you'd better be prepared to pay the price!"
Although, to this day, he still has no direct evidence to find out who hired Tai Jian.
However, the fact that he is a member of the Strength Clan is absolutely true!
Since that's the case, this debt can't just be left unresolved.
However, the Strength Clan does have a Soul Douluo in charge.
Although Xiao Xuan was not afraid, there was no need for him to be foolish enough to go to their door alone.
after all...
Why bother doing it yourself when there are already Titled Douluo available to help?
Thinking about this...
A smile immediately appeared on Xiao Xuan's face.
He then grabbed Tai Jian's corpse, and in a flash, headed straight for the Dugu Manor!
Half an hour later.
Heaven Dou City, Dugu Manor.
At this moment, Dugu Bo was sitting in the living room, chatting with his granddaughter Dugu Yan.
Suddenly, a servant hurried in.
"Master!"
"Young Master Xiao Xuan has arrived!"
"Oh?"
Dugu Bo was slightly taken aback.
Dugu Yan, standing to the side, had a sudden flash of interest.
" Xiao Xuan's younger brother?"
Why is he here?
Keep in mind that the two had only been separated for a short time.
Is there something they want to talk to me about?
Thinking of this, Dugu Yan suddenly smiled.
"Let him in quickly!"
However.
Before the servants could answer, Xiao Xuan walked in from outside.
In his hands, he was carrying a bloodied corpse!
" Xiao Xuan's younger brother?!"
Dugu Yan Yan's smile froze instantly.
"What... what is this?"
Even Dugu Bo couldn't help but frown.
"Young friend Xiao Xuan, what happened?"
"Hehe!"
Xiao Xuan smiled.
He then casually tossed Tai Jian's body onto the ground.
Bang!
The dull thud startled Dugu Yan.
" Senior Dugu!"
"I have something I'd like to trouble you with during my visit."
"Oh?"
Dugu Bo glanced at the corpse on the ground.
What exactly happened?
Xiao Xuan didn't hide anything and immediately recounted how he was assassinated on his way back to the academy.
On his way back to the academy, he was intercepted by a level 55 Soul King.
The other party claimed to be Tai Jian of the Strength Clan, hired by someone to take his life.
In the end, he was killed by himself.
After hearing these words...
The entire living room fell silent instantly!
"Etc!"
Dugu Yan suddenly widened her eyes.
"Brother Xiao Xuan, what did you just say?"
"This guy... is a level 55 Soul King?!"
"Good."
Xiao Xuan nodded with a smile.
"And he's Power Attack System Battle Soul King, with the Martial Soul Great Strength Gorilla."
"Hiss!"
Dugu Yan gasped in shock!
Level 55?!
"Doesn't that mean he's a whole realm higher than you?"
You actually killed him?!
Keep in mind, Xiao Xuan is currently only Four-Ring Soul Ancestor!
Although she had always known that Xiao Xuan's strength far surpassed that of his peers.
The ability to kill a level 55 Power Attack System Battle Soul King is simply too exaggerated!
Especially the Strength Clan.
That clan's greatest strength lies in its power!
Among those of the same level, in terms of strength alone, there are probably few Soul Master who can compare to them.
result...
He was actually killed by Xiao Xuan?!
Dugu Yan was at a loss for words.
Dugu Bo, standing to the side, was equally astonished.
"Young friend Xiao Xuan!"
"Did you really kill Tai Jian all by yourself?"
"Nature."
Xiao Xuan nodded.
"Otherwise, I wouldn't have needed to bring the body here in the first place."
Upon hearing this...
Dugu Bo couldn't help but look at the corpse on the ground again.
After examining him closely for a moment, the surprise in his eyes deepened even more!
With his keen eyesight, he could naturally tell that this corpse had indeed possessed considerable strength in life.
Moreover, the fatal wound in his chest was clearly pierced through by a spear!
What does this mean?
This means that Xiao Xuan not only won!
Moreover, it possesses the strength to kill a level 55 Soul King in a direct confrontation!
Thinking about this...
Even with his vast experience and knowledge, Dugu Bo couldn't help but feel secretly alarmed!
'Good lad!'
'How long has it been? How has he grown to this extent?'
'At this rate, I'm afraid it won't be long before this kid catches up with me!'
Thinking about this...
Dugu Bo's gaze towards Xiao Xuan immediately became more appreciative.
but.
After the initial shock...
Dugu Bo quickly noticed something else.
Since Xiao Xuan had already killed Tai Jian, why didn't he just dispose of the body?
Instead, he deliberately brought the corpse to his own residence?
Then, recalling what the other person had just said, "I have something I'd like to trouble you with..."
Dugu Bo immediately understood!
Good lad!
This is a plan to use their influence to settle scores with the Strength Clan!
Thinking about this...
Instead of getting angry, Dugu Bo burst into laughter!
"Hahaha!"
"Young friend Xiao Xuan!"
"I understand what you mean!"
As he spoke, he patted Xiao Xuan on the shoulder with a smile.
"Rest assured!"
"I'll take care of this for you!"
"What a Strength Clan!"
"They actually dared to assassinate someone I valued!"
"It seems they've really started to disregard me more and more these past few years!"
That brings us to this.
A cold glint flashed in Dugu Bo's eyes.
But soon he laughed again.
"Young friend Xiao Xuan!"
"Now that the person has been killed, this matter cannot be left unresolved!"
"If we don't make the Strength Clan bleed badly this time, wouldn't my title of Poison Douluo be meaningless?"
Upon hearing this...
Xiao Xuan immediately smiled.
That's exactly what I wanted to hear!
Although the Strength Clan was only a former subordinate clan of the Clear Sky Sect, over the years, thanks to the Soul Douluo strength of their clan leader Tai Tan and the excellent forging skills of their clan members, they have accumulated a considerable fortune.
Since they dared to provoke me, they shouldn't blame me for being impolite!
"Ha ha!"
"Then I'll have to trouble Senior Dugu!"
Xiao Xuan smiled and cupped his hands in a respectful gesture.
"Don't mention it!"
Dugu Bo waved his hand.
"You have done my Dugu Family a great favor; how could I stand by and watch you be bullied?"
"Walk!"
"I will take you to the Strength Clan right now and demand justice!"
That's all.
Dugu Bo didn't delay any longer and immediately released his Soul Power to protect Xiao Xuan within it.
He then picked up Tai Jian's body from the ground and prepared to leave.
"Grandfather!"
Dugu Yan quickly spoke up.
"I want to go too!"
"Go where you want to go!"
Dugu Bo glared at her.
"Stay home obediently!"
"Grandpa is going to seek justice, not to take you out to play!"
"But..."
"There's no 'but'!"
Dugu Bo waved his hand.
"Don't worry, Grandpa'll be right back!"
Having said that, he didn't wait for Dugu Yan to continue speaking.
It took Xiao Xuan directly into the air!
Whoosh!
A streak of emerald green light pierced the night sky.
The two figures quickly disappeared into the horizon!
Dugu Yan was left standing in the courtyard, gazing in the direction they had left, and couldn't help but stomp her foot.
"Snort!"
"You stinky grandpa!"
"You never include me in any of the fun activities!"
