"Furthermore, Yan'er, are you aware that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and our Jade Phosphorus Snake Soul Master lineage have always kept to themselves? Why do you...?"
Before Dugu Bo could finish speaking, Dugu Yan interrupted him.
"Grandpa!" Dugu Yan mustered her courage and looked up, her eyes glistening with tears. " Tian Heng is so good to me. He patiently teaches me cultivation, and he stays with me all night while I cultivate... I've never met anyone who understands me so well." She gripped her skirt tightly, her voice carrying the stubbornness unique to young girls, "I know you're worried I'll be deceived, but this time, I don't want to give up."
"I've made up my mind about Yu Tianheng, and no one can separate us."
"Also, not long ago, Tian Heng took me back to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan to meet his family and friends. They approve of us being together and said they'll be coming to propose marriage soon."
Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo nearly spat out a mouthful of blood.
He went home and even went to propose marriage.
Wow, that was fast! How much time has passed?
So, have you two already made it a fait accompli?
The thought crossed Dugu Bo's mind, but he didn't want to ask, fearing that he would get a bad answer and become even more devastated.
Looking into Dugu Yan's unwavering eyes, he knew that Dugu Yan had made up her mind and there was no point in trying to dissuade her. So he decided to investigate Yu Tianheng's situation first. If he was a decent person, then he would accept it; if he was a scumbag who had toyed with his granddaughter's feelings, then he, Dugu Bo, would not hesitate to be ruthless.
When Titled Douluo decides to kill, no one can stop him.
When Poison Douluo Dugu Bo kills someone, he guarantees that no corpse will be left behind!
The two walked side by side to a pavilion in the academy and found a chair.
Dugu Bo sat on the stone bench, looking at Dugu Yan with concern, and slowly asked, " Yanyan, you've been spending some time with that Yu Tianheng. What kind of person is he? I heard you say he's a direct descendant of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, but I don't know the specifics. Please tell your grandfather about him in detail."
"I want to know him better. If he's excellent in every way and truly deserves you, then Grandpa won't object to you being together."
Upon hearing this, Dugu Yan was overjoyed, her cheeks flushing slightly, her eyes filled with shyness and happiness. She whispered, "Grandpa, Tian Heng is incredibly talented. He's a third-generation member of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, a direct descendant. His grandfather is Yu Yuanzhen, the current patriarch of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, who, like you, is a Titled Douluo- level powerhouse with the title Thunder. Tian Heng has received rigorous Martial Soul training since childhood and possesses the top-tier Beast Martial Soul, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon. He has extremely high talent."
" Yu Yuanzhen!" Dugu Bo's pupils shrank, thinking to himself: I didn't expect that Yu Tianheng was actually Old Dragon's grandson. In that case, it's not such a bad deal after all!
Although Dugu Bo is alone and does not belong to any faction, he still values background and ability, especially when it comes to choosing a son-in-law for his granddaughter.
Yu Tianheng is the heir of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, the third most powerful clan in the world. He has a noble status and a powerful family. His family's Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul is even more powerful and famous, giving them a high status and influence in the Soul Master World. For Dugu Bo, such a family background is a good match for his granddaughter, Dugu Yan.
With this thought in mind, Dugu Bo's expression softened slightly.
He then pressed on, "How old is he this year, and what level has his cultivation reached?"
This is the issue that Dugu Bo values most. Even though Yu Tianheng comes from an extraordinary background, if he is a good-for-nothing, he still won't agree to his granddaughter being with him.
Although it's unlikely that Yu Tianheng, as the grandson of Titled Douluo, is a good-for-nothing, it's not absolute. Dugu Bo had heard that Yu Yuanzhen had a young son named Yu Xiaogang. This son of Yu Yuanzhen was a complete waste. He awakened a mutated Trash Martial Soul, but his Soul Power was stuck at level 29, with no future to speak of. He relied on his limited knowledge of Martial Soul cultivation to cheat and swindle, and even had an ambiguous relationship with Bibi Dong, the Pope of the Spirit Hall.
However, in recent years they have disappeared without a trace, and no one knows where they went.
Speaking of which Yu Tianheng is Yu Tianheng's own nephew.
He might be a theoretical expert, but his actual cultivation is unsatisfactory.
Just to be on the safe side, Dugu Bo still wanted to find out the details.
Dugu Yan answered earnestly, "Grandpa, Tian Heng is about the same age as me, also 16, but his Soul Power Level is much higher than mine. He's already level 45 and has long been chosen as the top choice to succeed the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan as the next patriarch. His future is limitless!"
"16 years old, level 45!" Dugu Bo was shocked once again upon hearing this. He had traveled the continent in his early years and seen countless geniuses, but no one had ever reached such a high Soul Power Level at this age.
Even Tang Hao, who is known as the fastest to become Titled Douluo on the mainland, does not have this kind of strength at this age.
He wanted to raise a question, but seeing his granddaughter's firm and proud eyes, he swallowed his words.
Dugu Bo stroked his beard and continued, "And what is his character like?"
Dugu Yan smiled, her lips curving upwards. " Tian Heng is an upright and loyal man. He is especially considerate to me. Whenever I am in danger, he always steps forward without hesitation to protect me. He is not afraid even when facing Five-Ring Soul King. Grandpa, you don't know, just a few months ago at a court banquet, I had a conflict with the Blood Moon Duke's Mansion, a noble family of the Heaven Dou Clan."
"The eldest son of the Blood Moon Duke was about to attack me. He was a powerful expert at the level of Five-Ring Soul King, and I was no match for him at the time. Just when things were at their most critical, Tian Heng decisively stepped in to save me. Afterwards, he didn't hesitate to fight him and finally defeated him."
"Moreover, he has lofty ambitions and has always hoped to restore the glory of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. He has worked hard to cultivate for this purpose. In short, he is an extraordinary person."
Listening to his granddaughter's story, Dugu Bo nodded repeatedly, thinking that Yu Tianheng was a good young man with a strong background, remarkable talent, amazing strength, and most importantly, he cared about Yanyan quite a bit.
On a personal level, as an elder, he naturally hopes that his granddaughter will find someone she loves to spend her life with.
From the perspective of family and power, the marriage alliance between the Jade Phosphorus Snake Soul Master lineage and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan can further consolidate and strengthen the power of both sides.
He himself is Titled Douluo, and although he is powerful, his power is relatively limited; while the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan has a huge family system and extensive network of connections. The combination of the two can achieve complementary advantages.
From then on, they were no longer afraid of threats from other forces, such as the Spirit Hall.
With this thought in mind, Dugu Bo felt reassured and wanted to see Yu Tianheng with his own eyes.
