Douluo: Adventure Begins from Wuhun City

Chapter 174 Settlement
The man was seen stumbling and stumbling, reeking of alcohol, but he was dressed in satin, silk, silver thread, and a jade-waisted belt.

At the foot of this imperial city, the extraordinary nature of his identity is clearly displayed.

After seeing the figures in front of him, the man stopped slightly, rubbed his eyebrows, focused his vision slightly, and after seeing clearly what they were wearing, a look of disdain suddenly appeared on his face.

"Where did this country bumpkin come from? What kind of clothes are you wearing? How dare you walk on the same street with me, young master? Why don't you get out of my way?"

In front, Chen Yao was stunned when he heard this, and his face looked a little strange. It seemed that his guess was correct.

This person dares to be so arrogant in the center of the imperial city, so his background in the palace must be very powerful. In this way, he should have a house.

After the drunk young man in front finished speaking, he shook his head again. With the dim light on the street, he could clearly see the appearance of the two women beside Chen Yao.

His brows furrowed again and he cursed.

"As expected of a country girl, she looks so disgusting!"

As he spoke, the young man rubbed his abdomen repeatedly to calm his slightly churning stomach.

After these words were spoken, Gu Yuena and Qian Renxue's faces became upset. Although they deliberately made themselves look ugly, it did not mean that they could tolerate others directly belittling them in person.

Suddenly, powerful soul power burst out, and nine optimally configured soul rings emerged behind Gu Yuena.

It was not difficult for Gu Yuena to simulate a few spirit rings that were only for show.

With Chen Yao's emphasis, these spirit rings would appear almost every time Gu Yuena prepared to attack.

The young man in front was sobered up instantly after seeing the nine soul rings. He fell to the ground with a look of horror.

“Seal…Seal a Titled Douluo?!”

Looking at the dandy who made the sharp sound, Gu Yuena's eyes turned cold, and she was about to slap him to death.

Chen Yao on the side patted his shoulder, a smile appeared on his old face, and said.

"Don't be impulsive. After all, we just arrived and we may have to deal with each other again in the future. Don't be impolite."

As he spoke, Chen Yao, leaning on his crutches and with a kind smile on his face, walked towards the young man step by step.

"Don't...don't come over here, Guards! Guards!"

Chen Yao's kind face gradually enlarged in the young man's eyes. In his eyes, he looked like a devil. He was frightened and began to scream loudly.

But the strange thing was that although his voice was obviously quite loud, the guards patrolling at the foot of the imperial city, only about 500 meters behind Chen Yao and others, did not react at all.

Some of the patrols even reached the front and their eyes had already swept in the direction of Chen Yao and others, but they still acted as if they didn't see them. They just glanced briefly and then looked away.

Here, from the very beginning, when Gu Yuena wanted to take action, a space barrier appeared in her sight.

This place is separated from the street behind, as if it were divided into two worlds.

As the most mysterious and powerful element, Gu Yuena has already mastered the space element to perfection.

Even though it was only such a short distance from the Imperial City, as long as she didn't want, all the Titled Douluo in the Xingluo Imperial Family would not be able to detect the slightest abnormality.

This is also the reason why Gu Yuena and others dared to act recklessly in this Xingluo capital.

What's more, even if they were discovered, Gu Yuena alone could easily sweep away the entire royal family.

Therefore, as long as they can be sure that they will not attract the attention of the Spirit Hall, they don't need to worry about anything when they act.

"I was wrong! My lords, please don't kill me! My father is the Minister of Imperial Household! He is in charge of the imperial guards in the city! If you kill me, you will definitely be in trouble!"

The young man saw Chen Yao approaching step by step with a calm expression, and the guards in front of him seemed to be deaf and blind.

He didn't know that it was Chen Yao and others who had resorted to trickery. He was so frightened that he began to beg for mercy.

"Don't worry, I'll need your help later, and I won't kill you..."

As Chen Yao chuckled, the shadow beneath him began to stretch infinitely, and then began to twist, forming dots of shadows.

As the fragments floated and condensed, a giant dragon with a completely dark body and three ferocious heads slowly emerged from the tail to the head beside Chen Yao.

The three pairs of huge pupils with different luster made the young man's face turn extremely pale in an instant.

"What...what is this! No...don't come over here!"

He wanted to escape, but the terrifying pressure from the Nightmare Dragon made him tremble all over and he was completely out of control.

Coming up to the young man, Chen Yao, looking down at him, his face still gentle and warm, slowly raised his hand.

The Nightmare Dragon also followed Chen Yao and made the same move. Its slender, dark claws gently touched the young man's brow.

Then, accompanied by a flow of cold soul power, the young man's frightened expression began to slowly subside, his expression began to become dull, and his eyes became empty.

The Nightmare Dragon, naturally, has the ability to create nightmares. By using that horrible nightmare, it is easy to destroy the fragile spirit of this person. It can leave a mark and achieve the effect of temporary control.

……

"Brother Lin, nice to meet you. It's getting late now, go back and have a rest. We'll meet here tomorrow morning."

At this moment, Chen Yao gently patted the dazed young man's shoulder.

There was no longer any tense atmosphere on the surrounding streets, and the rioting soul power had long since subsided.

After Chen Yao's voice fell, the young man walked forward with a distraught look, while Chen Yao and the other two also left to the other side, looking for a hotel to stay in for the night.

Soon, the streets were empty and quiet again, with only gusts of refreshing night breeze blowing in the air, as if nothing had happened.

However, what Chen Yao and the others did not notice was that on the street where they were just standing, on the finely decorated high wall on the left, there was half a round little head exposed to the air.

A pair of big eyes like obsidian, shining brightly, followed Chen Yao's figure until he completely disappeared from sight.

"boom!"

Chen Yao's figure disappeared. The figure hidden in the darkness jumped off the high wall and landed steadily on the ground in the courtyard.

Sitting down against the thick tree trunk, he began to recall the scene he had just seen, and a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes.

……

The next morning, the empty and lonely streets last night were now busy with traffic and people coming and going, after a short rest.

Chen Yao and the other two arrived at the agreed location last night early, and they saw the young man who had been waiting there for a long time.

Walking forward with the two girls, Chen Yao's eyes flashed with a faint light, and suddenly the young man with a stiff expression, his dull eyes were filled with liveliness again.

"Mr. Chen, two girls, you are here."

The young man spoke, causing passers-by to look at him in surprise.

You have to know that this man is the legitimate son of the Grand Chamberlain in the palace. He is spoiled and usually acts unscrupulously and lawless in the city. It is rare that he is so kind and considerate to these three seemingly simple guys.

However, the young man ignored the strange looks around him and walked forward quickly. Chen Yao nodded, then pointed to the house he had already selected yesterday and asked.

"Who lives here? Can you persuade them to sell it?"

The young man thought for a moment and then answered.

“Yes, the owner of this house is a minor official in the palace. He moved here a few years ago and wanted to take advantage of the geographical advantage to build a closer relationship with the Zhu family.

But the Zhu family was married into the royal family and held high positions of power in the palace. How could it be so easy to win them over? Over the years, they have not gained any benefits.

He spent a lot of money to buy this house, and he probably regrets it now, so if I try to persuade him, he will probably choose to sell it. "

As he spoke, the young man pointed to the wall next to the house and said.

Chen Yao was a little surprised when he heard this.

"The Zhu family? The Zhu family whose martial spirit is the Netherworld Spirit Cat?"

He had already noticed this mansion last night.

But after taking a closer look, he found that it covered a large area and was richly decorated. It was obviously the home of a very wealthy family. So he gave up the idea and chose the slightly inferior house next door.

But he didn't expect that the house that he had once paid attention to was actually the queen's maternal family, the Zhu family!

However, after being slightly surprised, Chen Yao did not think much about it and looked at the young man and said.

"Let's go and discuss this matter with this family."

The young man nodded and stepped forward with Chen Yao.

The following process was very simple. With this young man by his side, the owner of the house spoke in a very respectful tone and had a proper attitude.

After Chen Yao took out a large number of valuable ornaments and gold soul coins, he successfully completed the handover with the owner of the house.

Afterwards, he took a group of servants, packed up his luggage, and moved out quickly.

As for the young man, Chen Yao did not take his life. After all, the background behind him was not weak, and he was too lazy to cause trouble.

After destroying his memory of yesterday with a nightmare, he stopped caring about it.

After some more hustle and bustle in the house, Chen Yao finally relaxed completely. Looking at the luxurious decoration in the house, he felt satisfied.

He has been toiling day and night and running around all these years. Now he can finally take a good break and experience the life of a man.

However, before Chen Yao could relax for a while, he suddenly felt something soft on his body, forcing him to open his eyes.

Looking at Gu Yuena's eyes in his arms, which were full of spring color, Chen Yao's face twitched and he said quickly.

"You don't know how much time it takes you to come down here, do you? I am only a Soul Saint now, and my training is already full. If you take up so much of my time, how can I cultivate to become a god and help your soul beast tribe?"

When Gu Yuena heard this, her beautiful eyes widened, her face froze, and she quickly climbed up from Chen Yao's body.

Her eyes were full of regret. She had been too immersed in her studies during this period of time and forgot about the important matter of the soul beast's revival.

If Chen Yao's cultivation was neglected because of her, wouldn't she become a sinner of the soul beast clan?

For a moment, Gu Yuena's face was full of fear, and she said quickly.

"You must practice well. I...I will definitely control myself!"

As Gu Yuena spoke, her tone began to lower.

If it were in the past, she would have been extremely confident that she could suppress her estrus.

But now she is not so sure...

Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue, who was standing by, walked forward with a strange look and spoke.

"If you want Brother Chen Yao to speed up his cultivation, you can actually consider releasing the soul power restraints in my body.

My brother Chen Yao and I have a very high degree of spiritual compatibility. Similarly, if we practice together, our spiritual powers will merge and our strength will increase significantly.

If you are worried about me, you can remove my seal when Brother Chen Yao needs to practice, and then remove the seal after the practice is over."

Qian Renxue's words made Gu Yuena stunned, and then she subconsciously looked at Chen Yao.

And Chen Yao also fell into deep thought.

Although the prosperity of Xingluo City made him want to indulge himself, he also deeply understood that his most important task at present was to improve his soul power.

He knew what Qian Renxue was thinking, but if it could speed up the improvement of her soul power, it seemed that it was not impossible to give her a good time?

After pondering for a moment, Chen Yao nodded.

"The method Xue'er mentioned is not unfeasible..."

Before Chen Yao finished speaking, Qian Renxue's eyes suddenly burst into excitement and her body began to tremble. If Gu Yuena hadn't been watching her closely, she would have lost control and pounced on Chen Yao!

"Then...Brother Chen Yao...shall we start practicing?"

Qian Renxue suppressed her excitement and spoke tentatively.

"Do you really just want to practice?"

Chen Yao raised his head with a teasing smile on his face.

"I…"

Qian Renxue's cheeks flushed when she heard this, her body twisted, and her hands crossed in front of her body in no regular pattern. She didn't know how to answer.

As Chen Yao saw this, the corners of his mouth curled up even more.

He didn't know why, but the more he saw Qian Renxue's anxious expression, the more he didn't want to let Qian Renxue succeed so easily. He felt like he was at a disadvantage.

Could this be what those fairies think of the dog-licking spare tires?

For a moment, Chen Yao seemed to suddenly be able to empathize with others.

However, since it was related to the improvement of his own soul power, he did not keep Qian Renxue in suspense just for the sake of momentary interest.

Qian Renxue stood up and walked towards the house with surprise.

But as he walked, he seemed to sense something was wrong. He looked back and looked at Gu Yuena who was following closely behind him, and raised his eyebrows.

"We are going to practice, why are you following us?"

Gu Yuena said with a somewhat unnatural expression.

"I haven't seen what it's like when your human martial spirits fuse. Can't I go in and take a look?"
