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

Chapter 225 A Kind Heart

……

After a brief discussion, Xuanming left Qibaozhai.

There are some things that Ning Fengzhi will not say to Xue Qinghe's face, and Xue Qinghe will not say the same thing.

Their meeting this time was more of a formality, to show everyone that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Heaven Dou Royal Family were still trying to retain them, both to maintain appearances and to prevent anyone from acting rashly and prematurely.

The stage wasn't set up yet, the audience wasn't seated, and the play wasn't about to begin.

"Ok?"

On the way to the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy, a gust of cold wind blew by, and Xuanming stopped in his tracks.

Dugu Bo, whom we hadn't seen for a year, came out with a long face.

"Long time no see," Xuanming said.

"You brat, aren't you going to explain yourself?" Dugu Bo looked at Xuan Ming speechlessly.

"I just came out of seclusion, and Heaven Dou City is already in an uproar. What exactly are you up to?"

The seven major families, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, the Heaven Dou Royal Family, and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon School—a whole bunch of inexplicable troubles!

Remember how polite these major powers were to each other before he went into seclusion!
Xuanming, whom they regard as a cash cow, also has a bright future.

When he came out of seclusion, he was so surprised that he wondered if he was dreaming!
What was once a thriving place is now a complete mess!
Xuanming's relationship with these people could break down at any moment and they could come to blows!
"Flip the table!" Xuanming said.

“They made a fool of me, so I had to give them a little thrill in return.”

"Why did you have to drag yourself into this?" Dugu Bo said speechlessly.

"What are you going to do about Yan Yan?"

"Have you forgotten what you promised Ye Lan?"

"Don't worry, nothing will happen," Xuanming said.

Even if I become the target of everyone's criticism, no one will dare to lay a hand on them.

Dugu Bo's eye twitched slightly. "Because of me?"

“No.” Xuanming shook his head.

"That's the Spirit Hall?" Dugu Bo frowned slightly.

"Don't you know what kind of people the Spirit Hall is?"

It is said that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is only interested in profit, but compared with the Spirit Hall, they can be considered to be loyal and righteous!

Once Xuanming loses his usefulness, he will be devoured without leaving a trace!
“I will handle this matter personally,” Xuanming said.

"What can you do about it?" Dugu Bo asked, puzzled.

Xuanming paused for a moment, "The specifics are a bit complicated, but let me give you a simple example."

"Tang Hao clashed with the Spirit Hall back then, and the Spirit Hall has been hunting him down for many years, and it's still not over now."

"But what if Tang Chen were still alive? Would the Spirit Hall dare to do that?"

"Do they dare to hunt down Tang Hao? Or do they dare to force the Clear Sky Sect to retreat into seclusion?"

Dugu Bo was taken aback. "You have that ability?"

If Xuanming had Tang Chen's abilities, let alone just relying on killing a few people in the life-and-death arena of the Great Soul Arena to stabilize his martial soul, even if he openly killed people on the street, how many people would dare to say a word against him?
Right and wrong are not determined by what is done, but by violence!

No one in the world dares to argue right and wrong with a Title Douluo, and no one in the Soul Master world dares to waste a single word on someone of Tang Chen's level!

"Whether I have the ability or not, you'll soon see," Xuanming said.

Dugu Bo was silent for a moment, then asked, "Is there anything I can do?"

"No need, just watch the show," Xuanming said.

"However, this matter of mine is not very pleasant to hear. When the time comes, you will have to make a show of distancing yourself from me."

Dugu Bo raised an eyebrow slightly, "I'm not so old as to need to play the fool for something like this."

“You don’t care, but you have to consider Dugu Yan,” Xuanming said.

"She is still young, and we shouldn't put her under this unnecessary pressure."

Dugu Bo frowned. "Why are you making it sound like you're giving your last words?"

“It’s not my last words, it’s just that I will be leaving afterward, and I’ll probably be gone for a long time,” Xuanming said.

"No, that's not right either. Maybe... it really was his last words."

"..."

……

Shrek Academy. After discussing the matter, Ning Fengzhi and the others headed towards Shrek Academy.

"Dad, why are you in such a hurry? Can't we take it slow?" Ning Rongrong pouted.

"Anyway, I won't die."

“Dai Mubai is indeed not going to die, but Yu Xiaogang is a different story,” Gu Rong said.

Ning Rongrong was slightly taken aback. "What do you mean?"

"You have no idea how ruthless his Ice and Fire Man technique is. Even in my experience, there's nothing more torturous than that," Gu Rong said earnestly.

“Dai Mubai is still young, and he is a beast soul master of level 30 or above. His physical fitness and meridian strength are quite good. He can withstand the torment of alternating ice and fire.”

"But Yu Xiaogang is already old, not even level 30 yet, and his martial soul is mutated, so his physical fitness is quite average. In addition, he has lacked training for many years, so he is probably not even as good as a support-type soul master of the same level."

"Under that kind of torture, it's hard to say whether Yu Xiaogang can survive tonight."

Ning Rongrong's expression turned somewhat unnatural. "That terrifying?"

Gu Rong looked helpless. "My little darling, do you really think that Xuan Ming kid is some kind of pushover?"

In terms of ruthlessness, Xuanming is no less cunning than Dugu Bo!
When it comes to scheming, this kid is no less cunning than Ning Fengzhi!
They all misjudged this kid before!
Just like he said, he just lacks manners, but being straightforward doesn't mean he's brainless!

Xuanming simply dislikes pretense; he's not stupid at all.

Soon, the group arrived at the back of Shrek Academy.

Flander and Liu Erlong, who were about to go out to find someone to save them, also breathed a sigh of relief.

After briefly explaining the situation, Flander led Xue Qinghe to a private room to rest, while Liu Erlong led Ning Fengzhi and the others to Yu Xiaogang's room.

Yu Xiaogang was lying on the bed, covered in injuries, breathing weakly, as if all his strength had been drained away, and he was on the verge of death.

Although Dai Mubai was also covered in wounds, his eyes still showed a stubbornness as he gritted his teeth and persevered.

Ning Fengzhi stepped forward to examine Yu Xiaogang's injuries, his brows furrowing even more deeply. "These injuries are indeed serious. If he doesn't receive treatment soon, he probably won't make it through the night."

As he spoke, he turned to look at Gu Rong, "Uncle Gu, please help him."

Gu Rong nodded without saying much, stepped forward and circulated his soul power to forcibly expel the violent ice and fire energy from Yu Xiaogang's body.

"Uncle Gu, let's save this child too." Ning Fengzhi looked at Dai Mubai lying to the side.

Gu Rong frowned slightly, but still stepped forward to help expel the ice and fire energy.

"Thank you... Bone Douluo, Sect Master Ning." Dai Mubai said weakly, his face covered in sweat.

"Get some rest." Ning Fengzhi released his Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda martial soul, and a gentle soul power flowed into Yu Xiaogang and Dai Mubai's bodies.

A moment later, Yu Xiaogang slowly opened his eyes and saw Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong in front of him. "Thank you... thank you Sect Leader Ning and Bone Douluo for saving me."

"It was nothing, but I wonder how you ended up offending Xuanming?" Ning Fengzhi asked, somewhat puzzled.

"Although Xuanming has a rather aloof personality, he doesn't attack others casually. Is there some misunderstanding in this matter?"

"I..." Yu Xiaogang's eyes darted around, unable to speak.

"It's all because of Zhu Qing's matter." Ning Rongrong, standing at the back, pouted and whispered.

"Zhu Qing?" Ning Fengzhi was slightly taken aback.

"What happened to that child again?"

"Sect Leader Ning, Bone Douluo, thank you both for your trouble. Please come with me to the private room to rest." Liu Erlong, who knew the inside story, quickly said.

Seeing the awkward atmosphere, Ning Fengzhi didn't say anything more, nodded, and walked out of the room with Liu Erlong. Dai Mubai also walked out with Oscar's help. Soon, only Tang San was left in the room to take care of Yu Xiaogang.

"Teacher, what exactly happened?" Tang San asked worriedly.

Why would Xuanming attack you?

Yu Xiaogang's eyes flickered as he forced himself to sit up. His face was pale, but he tried to appear calm as he said, "Xiao San, you know about Dai Mubai's situation. I wanted to help him win back Zhu Zhuqing. I did it for their own good, but Xuan Ming came back. When he saw that Dai Mubai was still harassing Zhu Zhuqing, he became furious and embarrassed, and I was dragged into it as well."

"How could he so casually injure someone? And with such brutality!" Tang San frowned deeply as he listened to Yu Xiaogang's words, his eyes gradually burning with anger. He had always regarded Yu Xiaogang as a father and believed him wholeheartedly.

In his heart, Yu Xiaogang was the guiding light that led him on the path of a Soul Master, a teacher worthy of respect and trust.

"Teacher, how could he be so outrageous!" Tang San gritted his teeth and said bitterly, "You meant well, but he is so narrow-minded!"

Seeing that Tang San had been stirred up to hate Xuan Ming, Yu Xiaogang was secretly pleased, but on his face he still pretended to be both grief-stricken and relieved. "Little San, Xuan Ming is not weak. You must not act impulsively. Your master will find a way to deal with him. You just need to focus on your cultivation and improve your strength. It's not too late to settle accounts with him when you have the chance in the future."

Tang San clenched his fists, his knuckles turning white from the force. "Teacher, I understand, but I won't let this go. Since he dared to hurt you, he must pay the price. I will secretly look for an opportunity to make him regret what he did!"

Yu Xiaogang nodded slightly, "Alright, I believe you. However, this matter must not be publicized, lest we alert the enemy. We need to plan this carefully."

Tang San nodded heavily. "Don't worry, teacher, I will be careful. You should focus on recovering first. I will discuss it with you once I have a plan."
