Chapter 62: Reactions from All Sides
Sunset Forest.
Its center is located in the outermost area.
"Such a wide-ranging attack, such potent poison—Your Majesty Dugu's trump card is truly terrifying!"
Ning Fengzhi's Seven Treasure Glazed Pagoda shimmered in his hand as he looked at the empty space ahead, his eyes filled with a mixture of apprehension and relief.
Fortunately, it was the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan that provoked Dugu Bo this time. If it had been their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, they would definitely not have gained any advantage without being prepared.
"No Title Douluo should be underestimated..."
Sword Douluo Chen Xin remained silent for a long time before finally uttering a single sentence.
Look here.
Bone Douluo looked at the three clumps of some strange mixture on the ground, which contained poison.
"This is...?"
Ning Fengzhi was unable to recognize it for a moment.
"This location seems to belong to those three members of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan?"
Sword Douluo frowned, but he wasn't quite sure.
"call..."
Ning Fengzhi let out a soft sigh: "Your Majesty Dugu truly lives up to his reputation as the first Title Douluo to use 'poison' in his name. But judging from the current situation, his grandson and granddaughter-in-law have probably already lost their lives as well..."
"It's normal that they were weak and left no trace, but the bodies of Yu Yuanzhen and the old poison master were not found either."
Bone Douluo's voice was still as hoarse and unpleasant as ever, but he got straight to the point.
Let's look for it together!
...
The eye of ice and fire.
"Your Majesty, you can rest assured. Our clan excels at concealment. This place has been jointly shielded by us, and even a Title Douluo among humans would not be able to detect it..."
The Blue Silver Forest has remained undisturbed for so many years because the Blue Silver King, together with many other Blue Silver Grasses, concealed it.
Although this place doesn't have as many Blue Silver Grasses as the Blue Silver Forest, the combined strength of the Blue Silver King and numerous high-age Blue Silver Grasses is enough to shield the area of just one Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eyes.
Moreover, the Blue Silver Grass accelerated its growth in the Yin Yang Well of Ice and Fire and absorbed some herbs growing there. Even though it did not reach the level of immortal herbs, it still underwent a significant transformation.
Two of them have already reached the level of Blue Silver King, but they are still a bit short in age, only reaching 70,000 to 80,000 years.
However, the Blue Silver King himself has actually benefited the most this time, reaching 99,999 years!
If it weren't for some kind of restriction preventing it from breaking through, it would already be a 100,000-year-old soul beast.
"This seems to be a restriction imposed by some rule, but there are clearly Blue Silver Emperors on other continents as well, and my spirit already defies common sense..."
Su Lin frowned slightly. He was considered a special case, surpassing the Blue Silver Emperor, but how could the Blue Silver Emperors on other continents be explained?
The distance is too far, so the influence has been ruled out?
Su Lin couldn't figure it out, so he could only put the matter aside for the time being and think of other solutions later.
...
Ning Fengzhi, Bone Douluo, and Sword Douluo searched the area, but still could not find the bodies of Dugu Bo and Yu Yuanzhen.
"Perhaps because they were too close, there's no trace of their remains..."
The three men who came to this conclusion felt a chill run down their spines. If they had been any slower back then, they probably would have ended up like this.
But after that, Ning Fengzhi was somewhat delighted.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is now truly the number one sect in the world!
The following day, a shocking piece of news quickly spread throughout the entire Heaven Dou City.
In Sunset Forest, the Jade Phosphor Douluo Dugu Bo and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan Chief Yu Yuanzhen fought fiercely, resulting in their mutual destruction!
Even in the outer part of the central Sunset Forest, all vegetation and soul beasts within a radius of about three kilometers have been completely corroded away, and the surface is still a highly toxic scorched earth. Without human intervention, it may take decades to recover.
The news was so astonishing that it spread from Heaven Dou City at an alarming speed, shocking every Soul Master who heard it.
Heaven Dou Imperial Palace.
"The despicable Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family, they have no regard for the law and dared to kill a guest elder of my empire! I beg Your Highness to order them to be taught a lesson!"
Prince Xue Xing was truly exasperated.
He saved Dugu Bo's life back then, which was a great favor and an important basis for his high status in the empire.
Although Dugu Bo was unwilling to be bound by such restrictions and did not agree to become a royal retainer, he was still given the title of guest advisor, and could be consulted for important matters.
Such a trump card, and those brutes ruined it?
Emperor Xue Ye sat high on his throne, his fingertips tapping the chair at a sudden, much faster rhythm, his expression somewhat gloomy.
Although Dugu Bo was only close to Xue Ye, he was still the only titled Douluo who could hold his own in the Heaven Dou Empire. In contrast, although the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan was powerful, those arrogant guys didn't have a good relationship with the royal family.
However, even without Yu Yuanzhen, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's strength should not be underestimated.
Moreover, the Spirit Hall poses the greatest threat, even though the new pope is currently dealing with internal turmoil.
"Father, I also agree with my uncle's opinion."
Crown Prince Xue Qinghe suddenly stepped forward and said, "The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan forced the Empire's retainers to fight against them, damaging the Empire's reputation and destroying Sunset Forest. This is an extremely heinous crime!"
Sunset Forest...
Emperor Xue Ye suddenly realized what was happening.
He hadn't really taken the destruction of Sunset Forest to heart. Even though Sunset Forest wasn't as devastating as Star Dou Forest, the damage to that area wasn't too severe.
However, wantonly killing soul beasts and destroying their habitats is tantamount to ruining the future of soul masters, something the Spirit Hall will never allow.
Although Dugu Bo was the one who caused this situation, he was an imperial retainer, and he had lost both his grandfather and grandson, and had no family left. So naturally, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan had to take responsibility for this matter.
Now that Yu Yuanzhen is dead, with such a legitimate reason, the Spirit Hall will never give up the opportunity to take action against the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
Under pressure from the Spirit Hall, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, without Yu Yuanzhen, will at least follow in the footsteps of the Clear Sky Clan, and the outcome may even be worse.
Rather than letting the Spirit Hall benefit, they should do it themselves!
The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan has been passed down for many years, and its treasures, such as soul bones, are still intact. They might even add some depth to the empire.
Thinking this through, Emperor Xue Ye finally stopped hesitating and stopped tapping his fingers on the chair: "What you say makes sense. In that case, I'll leave this matter to the two of you to handle."
...
Spirit City, Papal Palace.
"Dugu Bo, Yu Yuanzhen... Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan..."
"Haha, haha, hahaha..."
"Xiao Gang... Xiao Gang..."
The new Pope, Bibi Dong, laughed like a madwoman, her beautiful face appearing somewhat ferocious.
"Tell Salas to do what he's supposed to do!"
