Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul is the Black Dragon, I am the Lord of the Gods

Chapter 15 No choice
……

"Can you put me down?"

After leaving the scene of the farce, Dugu Yan did not take Xuanming to eat as he had expected. Instead, she carried him through the streets, not knowing where she was going.

"We've arrived." Dugu Yan stopped in front of a house, and without knocking, she carried Xuanming inside.

"Ling Ling!"

"Ling Ling!"

The huge mansion was empty, clearly indicating that its owner also preferred peace and quiet.

"what happened?"

Upon hearing the shout, a young girl who looked about the same age as Xuanming, with silver-gray hair and dressed in black, came out of the courtyard.

"Lingling, is your grandma home?" Dugu Yan asked.

"Yes, what's wrong?" Ye Lingling asked, puzzled.

"My friend is injured, and I'd like to ask her to take a look at me." Dugu Yan shook Xuanming in her arms.

Ye Lingling was stunned for a moment, seemingly frightened by Xuan Ming's peculiar appearance, but she quickly came to her senses, turned around and led the way, "Follow me."

Dugu Yan, carrying Xuanming, quickly followed.

Upon arriving at the backyard, Ye Lingling asked Dugu Yan to place the person in the pavilion. Then, she walked to the room on the east side and knocked on the door. "Grandma, Yan Yan has brought a friend to see you for treatment."

"Mm." A simple response came from inside the room.

Having received a response, Ye Lingling turned around and walked back.

"How so?" Dugu Yan asked.

"Wait a minute," Ye Lingling said.

If her grandmother doesn't respond, it means she's not here, which is to say, she's beyond help.

Once you open your mouth, it means you'll wait and be willing to be treated.

Dugu Yan breathed a sigh of relief. She was genuinely worried that Ye Lingling's eccentric grandmother wouldn't be willing to help.

"You little rascal, what trouble have you gotten yourself into now?"

The door opened, and an elderly woman, who looked to be around sixty years old, wearing a light blue brocade robe, came out.

"Grandma Lan, it wasn't my fault, I just ran into an idiot and almost got into trouble," Dugu Yan said angrily.

"Idiot?" Ye Lan walked over and put her hand on Dugu Yan's shoulder.

"Aren't you perfectly fine?"

“It wasn’t me, it was him.” Dugu Yan pointed to Xuan Ming, who was sitting to the side without saying a word.

Ye Lan looked over, her gaze immediately drawn to the two peculiar black dragons behind Xuan Ming. "This child... his martial soul has mutated?"

"Grandma Lan, don't worry about that for now, let's take a look at his injuries first," Dugu Yan said.

"Alright." Ye Lan placed her hand on Xuan Ming's shoulder again, and after sensing his movements, her expression changed.

"How is it?" Dugu Yan asked worriedly.

"Fortunately, the recovery was timely, and you arrived just in time." Ye Lan released her martial spirit, which appeared as a pink begonia flower, composed of white and pink petals. The flower was brightly colored and gracefully shaped, with leaves and vines cascading down from both sides, the soft tendrils swaying in the wind, and the drooping petals like duckweed.

Yellow, purple, black, and dark, seven soul rings slowly rose, making this old woman clearly a healing-type soul saint!

The soul rings flickered, the soul skill was activated, and milky white, petal-shaped light floated out from the Nine Heart Begonia flower, surging into Xuanming's body and rapidly healing his injuries.

In just a few breaths, Xuanming's injuries were completely healed, leaving not a single scratch.

"Thank you," Xuanming said.

"Mm." Ye Lan responded, withdrew her martial spirit, and sat down.

"Tell me, what's going on?"

Dugu Yan quickly recounted their encounter on the street to Ye Lan, her pent-up anger finally surfaced, and her words carried a faint hint of murderous intent. If it weren't for the First Prince Xue Qinghe's appearance today, she didn't dare imagine what would have happened!
“Golong?” Ye Lan nodded.

"No wonder, his external injuries and bone fractures are minor, the trouble is his internal injuries."

"The healing soul master who treated him at the time was too weak and inexperienced. He didn't realize that the child's internal organs had been severely damaged by Golong's soul power. If you hadn't brought him to me in time, he would have been in serious trouble after tonight."

"What?!" Dugu Yan's face turned pale, feeling a bit scared, but then her anger surged.

"I'm going to make sure my grandpa kills that bastard!"

Ye Lan sighed, "Let's not talk about these things here."

Dugu Yan nodded, her emotions much calmer. "Thank you, Grandma Lan."

"It was nothing." Ye Lan looked at Xuan Ming.

"Why did you even think of attacking that Bales?"

“Among that group of people, that guy has the highest status,” Xuanming said.

“At the time, everyone around was watching the show. If I killed him, the rest of the people wouldn’t dare to deal with us easily. If things got out of hand, someone who knew Dugu Yan would always step forward.”

Ye Lan was taken aback. "Your idea... is quite unique."

In Tiandou City, there are indeed quite a few people who know Dugu Yan. Among those who were watching at the time, there must have been some who recognized her.

However, when something like that happens, there are always more people who enjoy watching the drama unfold.

In that situation, the child's idea, though somewhat extreme, was the fastest and had the highest chance of survival.

If Nabals takes the man away, things could get complicated.

but……

"You're not even a Soul Master, how dare you try to kill Barth?" Ye Lan asked.

Although this child has level 10 soul power, he has not absorbed a soul ring, and there is a huge gap between him and a true soul master.

Even if one possesses that special domain, it would be far too impulsive to kill a Soul Master of unknown strength under those circumstances.

“I took a gamble. I had no other choice at the time. I couldn’t just wait to die,” Xuanming said.

"Let's take a gamble?" Ye Lan raised an eyebrow.

“Nabars is a prince of the Barak Kingdom. If you really kill him, even if Dugu Yan is fine afterward, you will definitely not be able to escape.”

The military strength of the Barak Kingdom is second only to that of the Heavenly Dou Royal Family!
Moreover, the King of Barak is the cousin of the current Emperor of Tiandou. If something really happens, Dugu Yan has the Poison Douluo as her backer, and the Kingdom of Barak will not dare to pursue the matter. But this kid is a different story.

“I have no choice; I cannot simply wait to die,” Xuanming said.

"Even if we're going to investigate, at least there'll be someone to take the blame."

Bars had clearly already decided that he was a slave. He wasn't sure if Dugu Yan would be in trouble once they were captured, but he was definitely doomed.

Passersby watched indifferently, and there was no chance of escape.

When faced with that kind of person, yielding to their wishes will only result in a humiliating death.

In that situation, taking a gamble was the only option he could think of.

Moreover, he almost succeeded. If Goron hadn't suddenly intervened, his blood spear would have definitely pierced Bals's throat!

"Are you dissatisfied?" Ye Lan found it somewhat amusing.

I almost died!
Still not convinced?
"I'm not convinced either," Dugu Yan said, looking displeased.

"Why did they have to come at the exact moment when Barth was about to die? It's like they did it on purpose."

Even if that damned prince is killed, would King Barak dare to go against her grandfather?

This whole thing was started by that idiot!
