Tang San panicked.

He's panicking right now.

For the past few months, he hasn't been sleeping well, he hasn't been able to concentrate on his cultivation, he's had no appetite, and he's been absent-minded all the time.

Why?

The day to repay the money has arrived.

He has no money.

I can't pay it back.

What should we do?

Tang San racked his brains but couldn't figure it out.

Why?

This interest-free loan cost a full 10,000 contribution points, which he simply couldn't earn back. He could only barely make ends meet through the academy's missions.

His Soul Power only increased by one level, reaching level thirty-nine, which also means that Tang San had no intention of cultivating at all.

He can't repay 10,000 contribution points, which means he has to compensate Yu Longyue with a full 100,000 contribution points!

One hundred thousand!

Even if you sold your life, you couldn't repay him.

Tang San dared not go out of his dormitory.

Fortunately, Yu Longyue was seriously injured during the Eastsea City incident, so only a few people came to collect debts from him. The company was also quite busy, so his matter was considered a minor issue.

But we can't drag this out for too long.

If the company has handled things properly, then it's time to deal with him.

"What should we do? What should we do?"

Even the mighty former God King Tang San was stumped by this difficult problem.

The problem is that all his assets combined don't even amount to 10,000 contribution points.

"Should I borrow money from others? But who would lend me 8,000 contribution points?"

Tang San gritted his teeth; he was still 8,000 contribution points short of paying back the money.

Just as he was thinking of a solution, the dormitory door rang again.

" Tang San? Tang San! Do you have a moment? The 10,000 contribution points I borrowed are due..."

The knocking on the door kept going on, so Tang San could only stay huddled in bed, too afraid to come out or make a sound.

"That's strange, isn't he in the dorm? I can't find him anywhere."

"Hello, do you know where Tang San is? I need to talk to him, but he doesn't have a cell phone and it's hard to contact him..."

Listening to the voices of the staff outside, Tang San closed his eyes and kept thinking of a solution.

Soon, he seemed to remember something, and his eyes lit up.

"I've got an idea."

Within the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

Grandpa and Mother were watching Yu Qitian teach Yu Longyue the Nine True Dragon Techniques of the family.

Yu Longyue learned very quickly, and with her father's help, she even successfully created the second of the Dragon King's Nine Absolutes Techniques.

"How come you're more successful than me in communicating with the power of the laws of heaven and earth?" Yu Qitian's lips twitched. The main reason why the Nine True Dragon Techniques could only be practiced by Titled Douluo was that this move required the use of the power of the laws of heaven and earth.

The Qiangu Family also possesses such a family secret technique, and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan is no exception.

"Perhaps, because I am God's chosen one."

Yu Longyue chuckled and made a joke.

Huo Yuhao said he was the chosen one of this era, and perhaps because of this, he could communicate with the world more smoothly and use the laws more easily than ordinary people.

While other Titled Douluo can barely make contact, he, Soul King, can. This is why he was able to kill Soul Douluo with a single shot.

This kind of ultimate technique can only be used by Titled Douluo. If you can't kill them instantly, it would be too beneath you.

"Alright, that's enough for today. Eat some more tonics. If there's a chance, your grandfather and I will go to the Tang Sect headquarters and get you a suitable Immortal Herb."

Yu Longyue thought for a moment. Now that the Tang Sect controls the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, it is indeed the only place where Immortal Herb can be found.

He blinked:

"This must require a lot of resources, right?"

"You brat, you're acting all innocent after getting the benefits. It's just resources, we have as many as we want." Yu Qitian crossed his arms, thought for a moment, and said, "By the way, in a few years, Shrek will be selecting this generation of the Shrek Seven Devils."

"You, of course, are undoubtedly the captain of the Shrek Seven Monsters."

Yu Longyue remained silent, not mentioning whether he could resign or not, since he could only obey the family's arrangements now.

"We'll arrange a suitable Immortal Herb for you when the time comes; just wait."

"I'm not in a hurry about that," Yu Longyue shrugged. "But Dad, you're so strong, I've never heard of you being one of the Shrek Seven Monsters."

"Because when your dad was young, he clearly had the ability and talent to become one of the Shrek Seven Monsters, and being a captain wouldn't have been a problem. But there's a big age difference between me and you, old man Yun Ming, and the key point is that we're actually from the same generation. Back then, all the spots for the Shrek Seven Monsters were filled. No matter how outstanding I am, I can't become one of the Shrek Seven Monsters. I can only say that my parents gave birth to me too early. If only I were born in your era." Yu Qitian rolled his eyes.

"You're different. None of your contemporaries can rival you. It's great! Thinking back to my time, tsk, it was really unpleasant to be overshadowed by Yun Ming."

Yu Longyue then realized that the previous Sea God Pavilion Master, Tianjuan Douluo Bei, was also one of the Shrek Seven Devils from the previous generation, since Yun Ming?

My own great-uncle, speaking of which, was also killed by the Holy Spirit Cult, and was none other than the Darkness Emperor, one of the Two Emperors.

In the original novel, things get even worse: after he dies, Long Yeyue cheats on him...

For a moment, Yu Longyue was at a loss for words, only hoping that this kind of messy love affair would not happen, after all, he was her great-uncle.

Even after death, being cheated on by someone else is probably enough to make someone turn in their grave.

"Oh right, I need to go to the academy." Yu Longyue remembered something. "I've been lying here for a year, and there are still many things I haven't done, all waiting for me to take care of."

"You silly child, you've only been home a short while and you're already going out again," the mother said with a hint of reproach. "What if you run into assassins again?"

"If they could have taken action against Xiao Yue in Shrek City, why would they have lured him to Eastsea City?" Yu Qitian sighed.

The Holy Spirit Cult exploited a loophole during that operation, and now Yu Longyue's security has been fully upgraded.

He refused to believe that the other side would dare to make a move. He suggested that if they had the guts, they should send someone of the Darkness Emperor's level and see if they would fight back against the Holy Spirit Cult.

Yu Longyue patted her chest. "Don't worry, in Shrek City, I have five Limit Douluo protecting me, Mom. You can rest assured, they definitely won't dare to come back."

That's all for now, love you Mom, see you tomorrow!

His mother watched him leave, sighing, "That child..."

Yu Qitian said softly, "The children will grow up and eventually leave our side, so stop sighing and complaining, it'll give you wrinkles."

"But the problem is that he left us before he grew up. It's all your fault. The fact that our son ran away from home when he was little is all because you were so strict with him back then."

"Didn't we agree not to mention this?"

"You're punished by having to sleep on the sofa for a month."

Don't be angry, I'll buy you your favorite milk tea later.

"Well... I guess you barely passed."

Having not traveled for a year, Yu Longyue finally got to experience the taste of freedom.

It feels so good to be able to jump around and be energetic.

There are many things waiting for him to deal with right now, which has been dragging on for a whole year.

He's very busy right now.

For example, the company's cooperation with the Spirit Pagoda, the follow-up to the Eastsea City operation, and so on...

The matter of Tang San.

But Tang San's matter isn't important; we can put it aside for now.

After careful consideration, Yu Longyue decided to address the aftermath of the Eastsea City operation first, as that was the most important thing.

He hates being taken advantage of the most.

Therefore, he went directly to Sea God Island to talk to Yun Ming.

"You said you wanted to speak with the head of the Inspection Corps in charge of the Eastsea City area?" Yun Ming, who was busy handling affairs, glanced at him. "It's been so long, why do you still want to talk to him?"

Yu Longyue wore a polite smile.

"No matter how much time has passed, what's done is done. Naturally, I need to talk to this person in charge, have some tea, and have a chat. Uncle Yun, you'll help me, right?"

Upon hearing this, Yun Ming frowned, while Na'er, who was watching the scene unfold, was somewhat puzzled:

"Teacher, is this difficult? Why are you hesitating for so long?"

"Don't you know your brother's personality?" Yun Ming reached out and patted Na'er's head. "He probably went to see that person in charge this time to settle accounts. Don't listen to his nice words. This kid is definitely going to cause trouble. He's just like his dad; he's only good at putting on a show."

" Uncle Yun, do you really need to portray me as so terrible in front of me?" Yu Longyue touched her nose somewhat awkwardly. "I'm probably not as awful as my dad."

"Your dad even wanted to cripple the God of War of the War God Temple, so I guess you're not much different." Yun Ming scratched his temples, looking quite troubled.

"How could that be? I was definitely paying a visit to bring a gift as a token of my appreciation."

Yu Longyue blinked innocently.

Of course, he'd start with politeness and then use force. Once the gift was given and his intentions were clear, he could then give the person in charge a good beating.

In the end, Yu Longyue got the office space in the person in charge as she wished.

Yun Ming couldn't help but say, "Give me some face, don't make a big scene..."

" Uncle Yun, I'm not some kind of villain, how could I cause trouble? Don't worry, I promise I'll keep a low profile, not be arrogant, and be absolutely humble, bowing and scraping to everyone!"

Yun Ming: "..."

So you mean you're going to beat them up until they bow and scrape before you, right?

He waved his hand, tacitly approving of Yu Longyue's actions.
