The Far North.
The Ghost Emperor stared at the Dark Bell Na Nali, who had escaped from the Eastsea City operation, and the Titled Douluo who was in charge of leading the team, his face ashen.
"Your Majesty, Ghost Emperor, my mission was to hold off that bodyguard with the Shadow Dragon Martial Soul, and I accomplished it perfectly. He was unable to provide any support to Yu Longyue. As for why Yu Longyue didn't die, you'll have to ask him." Na Nali glanced at the Titled Douluo.
"You didn't have a chance to deal with Yu Longyue?" the Ghost Emperor said coldly. "His bodyguards are not as skilled as you. It's easy for them to hold off an opponent slightly weaker than you, but you couldn't kill him. The Necromancer executed the plan perfectly from beginning to end, but unfortunately, he was one step behind. Yu Longyue's actual performance is different from what the outside world says. Who said he was a playboy?"
Ghost Emperor was about to blame her, Na Nali quickly explained, " Ghost Emperor Majesty, as you know, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan has existed for over 20,000 years and has survived two exterminations. Their bloodline and Dragon Transformation techniques, passed down through generations, allow them to fight beyond their level. It's impossible for me to kill his bodyguard in such a short time."
"If we're held up until Atlas Douluo and Heavenly Dragon Douluo arrive, I won't escape death either."
Upon hearing this, the Ghost Emperor pondered for a moment, then nodded, and stared intently at the Titled Douluo with an extremely oppressive gaze.
Under the Ghost Emperor's gaze, that Titled Douluo felt unprecedented pressure.
"Your Majesty, Ghost Emperor, I..." The Titled Douluo tried to explain, but the Ghost Emperor raised his hand to stop him.
"Failure is failure, and I don't want to hear any explanations." The Ghost Emperor's voice was cold and Heartless. "You were all elites I carefully selected, but the result has greatly disappointed me."
The Titled Douluo lowered his head:
"Your Majesty, the Ghost Emperor, as you know, I couldn't intervene at the time. Moreover, Yu Longyue has a very high battle IQ. He can often rely on intuition to judge the situation in the current battle and make the best choice. At that time, he fought against the Three Soul Douluo and almost never made a wrong judgment."
The Ghost Emperor nodded, not refuting this point:
"Most importantly, another unknown force sent a Limit Douluo to stop you, but they didn't save Yu Longyue. The enemy of my enemy is my friend..."
The Ghost Emperor stroked his chin, deep in thought.
"I can't think of any other force that would be an enemy of the Douluo Federation and Shrek Academy."
"Well, if we can't kill him, we can't kill him. We can only say he was lucky. But his actual combat performance did exceed my previous assessment. It's a pity that such an opportunity is fleeting. If we could do it all over again, I would rather take a greater risk and send three Titled Douluo to kill him."
The Ghost Emperor waved his hand and sighed.
"Once such God Level Martial Soul fully matures, almost no one can rival him, let alone this guy who is only Soul King, yet he was able to fight three Soul Douluo to the death. Although there is a strength-repair relationship, but..."
"If given the opportunity, next time, I will personally take action to kill Yu Longyue, depending on the circumstances."
The Ghost Emperor's words caused Na Nali to involuntarily lower her head.
A Limit Douluo has his eye on him. I really don't know if it's good luck or really bad luck.
There are special wards at the Shrek Academy.
Gu Yue has been taking care of Yu Longyue in her room for at least a few months. The best-case scenario is that Yu Longyue can finally move a little, but she still doesn't have much strength to get out of bed and walk.
His entire body was slashed by the Necromancer who forcibly broke through to the Titled Douluo level. Even with Ya Li by his side, he still suffered many aftereffects and needed to recuperate slowly.
Not to mention that in the end, he had to exhaust his body to activate his Dragon Transformation and block that massive explosion. No matter how strong his body was, he couldn't withstand such torment.
So during this time, Gu Yue fed her, a job that was originally done by her mother.
only...
Gu Yue felt somewhat numb.
During the time Yu Longyue was injured, countless of humanity's most powerful figures came to visit Yu Longyue.
Yu Qitian, his grandparents, Long Yeyue Yun Ming, and even Qiangu Dongfeng and Leng Yaozhu came.
Even several war gods from the Federation, as well as Cai Yue'er with several elders, came.
It's a pity they're not at the level of the Temple Master or Deputy Temple Master of the War God Temple.
Nevertheless, Gu Yue clearly recognized that Yu Longyue, as the young sect leader, represented the entire Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon faction, and that the interests of those top experts were at stake.
Several factions came to personally praise Yu Longyue's heroic act of saving Eastsea City, and even extended goodwill gestures. It can be said that everyone wanted to befriend this young man with unlimited potential and who was recognized as the number one genius on the continent.
No one wanted to offend the future second Yun Ming, or even someone stronger than Yun Ming.
In particular, the hidden powerhouses of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan impressed Gu Yue, who couldn't help but marvel at the strength of this long-established family.
His mother is a Level 97 Super Douluo, his grandmother is Level 98, and even his second uncle shows signs of breaking through to Level 99. There is also a hidden powerhouse who guards Yu Longyue day and night, and he is also Level 99 existence.
It seems that after the battle in Eastsea City, they were all afraid. They clearly did not expect that the Holy Spirit Cult would actually target Yu Longyue. This was indeed an oversight on their part, and they were obviously used to living a peaceful life.
But to be honest, there are hardly any weak members in this family.
According to intelligence, Gu Yue still remembers that ten thousand years ago, they were just the Heavenly Dragon Sect, but now they have developed to this point, which is truly remarkable.
It's worth mentioning that Na'er also came. When she saw that it was Gu Yue taking care of Yu Longyue, her eyes widened. However, she doesn't have many opportunities to come over.
After all, whenever she came out, the inner court disciples would follow her like she was drawn by a scent, so Yun Ming had no choice but to accompany her every time he came.
"Why are there still people here?" Yu Longyue forced his head to turn and look out the window near the door. He saw several people peeking out furtively and staring at him.
Gu Yue glanced at it:
"It looks like Huo Haodong and his group."
After saying that, he stood up and opened the door, and saw a large group of people crowded together, led by Huo Haodong.
"Why is the whole class here?" Gu Yue was slightly surprised. "Come in, all of you. The ward is large enough for you to all come in."
One student said somewhat naively, "We'll just take a look. Class monitor, why don't you take a few people as representatives to go in?"
Huo Yuhao nodded and led about ten people into the ward.
It's worth mentioning that someone else, who was almost entirely wrapped in bandages like Yu Longyue, also came in.
And Tang Wulin was covered in injuries, with bandages on his face...
" Yu Longyue, I can finally see you in person!" the person covered in bandages couldn't help but say, though he dared not move too much and spoke in a low voice.
Yu Longyue didn't recognize him. "You are...?"
"I'm Yue Zhengyu from the Angel Clan, a second-year student. It's a pleasure to meet you. I've wanted to see you for a long time, but I've never had the chance."
Yu Longyue thought for a moment, then suddenly realized.
Isn't this one of the future Shrek Seven Devils?
" Angel Clan, thank you so much for coming to see me, but why did you..."
"Don't say anymore. I'm in the same ward as you. You did it to save Eastsea City, while I went to the Spirit Pagoda a few months ago. I don't know why, but suddenly a lot of undead creatures appeared around the Spirit Pagoda." Yue Zhengyu's tone turned resentful as he mentioned this. "I'm from the Angel Clan, so naturally, I'm mortal enemies with these undead creatures. I rushed in immediately to help purify them."
"But for some reason, those undead weren't afraid of my holy attribute, and they were even light-attribute undead creatures. I accidentally suffered a great loss, getting ganged up on by several Death Knight and severely injured. I'm still recuperating..."
Huo Yuhao turned his head away somewhat guiltily.
"You're really unlucky..." Yu Longyue didn't laugh, never expecting that Yue Zhengyu would be affected by that operation.
"Oh well, what can I do? But being in the same ward as you makes us fellow patients, it's quite a coincidence. How about we grab a drink sometime?"
"We're minors, we're not allowed to drink alcohol." Yu Longyue glanced at him.
"I was referring to the drinks." Yue Zhengyu looked Yu Longyue up and down, and couldn't help but admire her. "It's a pity I didn't go to Eastsea City with you, otherwise I would have made those despicable Evil Soul Master pay the price."
"I got hit too..." Tang Wulin rubbed his cheek, "But thank you so much, Brother Yue, for saving me and my parents. I don't know how to repay you."
Yu Longyue laughed, "Haha, then quickly grow stronger and stronger so you can work for me in the future. That will be your way of repaying my kindness."
"Must!"
A chubby little boy suddenly appeared next to Yu Longyue, muttering, "I have a big meat bun."
The meat bun appeared in his hand, which he then handed to Yu Longyue.
"Want some? My meat buns can help restore your Soul Power as much as possible. I see you haven't fully recovered yet. You had a tough time in that battle."
"By the way, my Xu Lizhi, everyone calls me Little Foodie, you can call me that too."
"Thank you." Yu Longyue took the meat bun, then took a bite. The last wisp of Soul Power in his body accelerated its circulation, which made his eyes light up.
Food-type Soul Master are really powerful.
" Xu Lizhi and Ye Xinglan were both students in the inner academy before, but now they've transferred back to the outer academy and are in our class. They all want to meet you, but unfortunately you're always elusive," Huo Yuhao explained cheerfully.
Ye Xinglan looked at Yu Longyue and nodded silently.
"You're known as the strongest student in the outer academy. To be honest, I was indifferent to you before, but after watching your battle in Eastsea City online, I've come to acknowledge you."
"You are very strong; you are the goal we strive for with all our might and throughout our lives."
