Douluo Continent: The Ten Kings of Hell, I am the Emperor of the Underworld

"who are you?"

Yu Yuanzhen's heart skipped a beat when the sea witch appeared.

The sea witch did not conceal her aura, and Yu Yuanzhen judged that even if her soul power was not as strong as his, it was not much weaker.

He wondered where Xue Ye had gotten such a mermaid titled Douluo.

The sea witch did not answer, but continued playing her flute.

However, this time the flute music was not mixed with soul power; it was just ordinary music.

Completely ignored, Yu Yuanzhen's brows furrowed with anger. Although he was still puzzled about the origins of the sea witch, he remained confident.

Since receiving the inheritance of the Thunder God's position, Yu Yuanzhen's cultivation speed has increased very quickly. After his soul power reached level 96, he is still rapidly advancing towards level 97.

He was confident that dealing with a Title Douluo who had left his home turf of the ocean would not be a surprise.

"Luo Mian, let's attack together. I'll deal with this woman, and you take the heads off the disciples."

"Yes."

Yu Luomian had a vague sense of foreboding.

Is Xue Ye's only reliance this one Title Douluo? Putting himself in Xue Ye's shoes, Yu Luomian felt that if he were Xue Ye, he would also continue to endure if he had a Title Douluo to help him, unless…

Before he could think any further, Yu Yuanzhen was already surrounded by lightning and soared into the sky.

The Thunder Dragon Claw, imbued with the power of violent lightning, reached out to grab the sea witch who was sitting languidly to the side.

The sea witch seemed oblivious, only her flute music changed, swirling around Yu Yuanzhen as he pounced.

"Huh, what a small skill."

The demonic sound startled Yu Yuanzhen, causing him to lose his focus for a moment. But soon, the sound of thunder surrounded him, blocking out the sea witch's flute music.

Just as he was about to touch the sea witch with his Thunder Dragon Claw, he saw out of the corner of his eye that one figure after another appeared on the city wall.

Moreover, these figures all exuded the aura of Title Douluo.

How can this be?

Yu Yuanzhen was greatly alarmed.

If there had only been one Sea Witch, he wouldn't have had much trouble dealing with her. But then six or seven more Title Douluos appeared one after another, and Yu Yuanzhen was so frightened that his blood ran cold.

Where did all these unfamiliar Title Douluos come from?
With his mind racing, Yu Yuanzhen dared not continue attacking the sea witch. He turned around, forcibly twisting his body, and landed back below.

Yu Luomian, who was originally following behind Yu Yuanzhen, discovered the appearance of the other Title Douluos from Seagod Island even earlier than him.

Yu Luomian had sensed something was wrong long ago and had made preparations in advance, turning back even before Yu Yuanzhen.

"Brother, are you okay?"

Yu Luomian helped Yu Yuanzhen, who had been forced to the ground, and said.

A trickle of blood seeped from the corner of Yu Yuanzhen's mouth.

He was injured, not because he forcibly stopped the attack and turned around, but because he was attacked.

As he turned, the sea witch's flute music once again flooded his mind, stirring up a storm in his spiritual sea.

That wasn't all. Suddenly, several Title Douluos appeared. As he turned around, Sea Dragon Douluo punched him, the punch landing squarely on his back.

The onlookers in the distance gasped in surprise.

"Title Douluos, are all of them Title Douluos?"

"Yu Yuanzhen is injured. The Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect is in trouble."

The appearance of the seven guardian pillars of Poseidon Island, with the aura of seven titled Douluo unleashed, caused a sensation far more shocking than Yu Yuanzhen breaking through to level ninety-six.

"It's just a minor injury, nothing to worry about."

Yu Yuanzhen forcibly suppressed his injuries and pretended to be relaxed as he spoke to Yu Luomian.

Yu Luomian looked worried. He had anticipated that Xue Ye would have a backup plan, but he hadn't expected it to be so powerful.

There were seven Title Douluos in total, and Yu Luomian couldn't figure out where they came from, no matter how hard he racked his brains. "Sect Master, shall we retreat first?"

An elder said tremblingly.

The combined aura of the seven Title Douluos sent shivers down the spines of the elders and disciples of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan.

If war really breaks out, it's hard to say whether Yu Yuanzhen will live or die, but they're definitely doomed.

Yu Yuanzhen looked at the crowd on the imperial city wall with a gloomy expression.

He could sense that none of the seven Title Douluos possessed a soul power exceeding his.

However, even with his strength, he couldn't withstand the combined attack of seven people and was eventually beaten to death.

Suddenly, Yu Yuanzhen noticed that the seven Title Douluos parted to the sides, and Xue Qinghe emerged from behind them.

"Sect Master Yu, how have you been?"

Ning Qiuyang had never officially met Yu Yuanzhen, but Qian Renxue, disguised as Xue Qinghe, had met Yu Yuanzhen a few times.

Yu Yuanzhen said with a gloomy face, "Xue Qinghe? Good, very good. Your methods have exceeded my expectations."

Judging from the attitudes of these seven people, Yu Yuanzhen could easily tell that Xue Qinghe was the mastermind.

He had thought that Xue Ye had brought reinforcements, but now it seemed that the one who caused all this was Xue Qinghe, whom he didn't take seriously.

"I am fine, of course, but Sect Master Yu seems to be in a bad state."

Ning Qiuyang, looking down from his vantage point, said in a loud voice:
"The Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan has huge ambitions. They've taken over the court and seized military power. What are they planning to do next?"

Yu Yuanzhen felt a surge of hatred, but he remained silent.

If you are not as strong as others, all your words are meaningless.

The reason why the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan could make Xue Ye back down step by step was because of their strength, right? Now that the two sides have switched positions, if he doesn't want to really start a war, he can only endure it.

"Bring the people up."

Yu Yuanzhen tried to play dead, but Ning Qiuyang didn't let him go.

Several guards carried out Yu Tianheng, who was almost emaciated.

Yu Yuanzhen's heart sank suddenly.

Yu Tianheng is not dead, which is good news, but judging from Xue Qinghe's attitude, he is definitely not going to let Yu Tianheng go.

"Xue Qinghe, let's talk this out. The Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan is here to help you. Don't go too far. Let me give you a piece of advice: young people shouldn't be so impetuous."

Yu Tianheng is Yu Yuanzhen's grandson. Moreover, Yu Tianheng is exceptionally talented and is one of the most outstanding young talents in the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect. He is highly valued by Yu Yuanzhen, who places great hopes on him.

Even if it comes at a considerable cost, Yu Yuanzhen wants to save Yu Tianheng's life.

“Help us? You call it helping us by killing ministers, seizing power, eliminating generals, and plotting to seize military power? Well then, I’ll help you too. You have too many children, and it’s hard to support them all. I’ll help you lighten your burden.”

Having said that, Ning Qiuyang waved to the guards and said:

“Cut off this man’s head and hang it here.”

"Yes."

The guard answered loudly.

They were all royal guards, and they had long been disgusted by the arrogance of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan.

Especially this Yu Tianheng, who has been coming and going from the palace as if it were his own backyard these days, and he looks down on the guards. If anyone tries to stop him, he will beat or scold them.

With a clang, a guard drew his sword, while several others pinned the struggling Yu Tianheng to the ground.

"Stop! Let's talk this out, Xue Qinghe. There's no feud between our two families that can't be resolved. If you stop right now, I..."

As Yu Yuanzhen was speaking, Xue Qinghe's hand suddenly fell.

Chi~
Blood splattered everywhere under the sword, and heads rolled.

Yu Yuanzhen's most cherished grandson was beheaded right before his eyes. (End of Chapter)
