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

"Tianheng."

Yu Yuanzhen's eyes were bloodshot, his fists were clenched, and he gritted his teeth.

If he hadn't been rational, he would have rushed up and beaten Xue Qinghe to death right now.

"Wow~"

Ning Qiuyang gave the order decisively, and the guards acted swiftly, eliciting gasps of surprise from the crowd.

"He...the Crown Prince really killed Yu Tianheng?"

"Xue Qinghe actually has this kind of courage? I didn't realize that."

"Do you think just anyone can become the crown prince? This position isn't one that anyone can hold onto. Take Xue Beng, for example; even if you gave him the chance, he wouldn't be able to do it."

"The Crown Prince is no ordinary person. Have you noticed that all these Title Douluos show him great respect?"

Above the imperial city.

The guards tied up Yu Tianheng's head and hung it together with the heads of the other Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect disciples.

"Sect Master Yu, are you satisfied with the favor I did for you?"

Yu Yuanzhen gritted his teeth and said, "Satisfied, I couldn't be more satisfied."

Yu Yuanzhen's voice seemed to come from the deepest hell, making those who heard it feel as if a blade was slicing across their necks.

Yu Yuanzhen swore that he had never hated anyone so much.

Given the chance, he would definitely tear Xue Qinghe to shreds.

"Your Highness, once the matter is resolved, don't forget the important matter concerning Lord Sea God."

Poseidon appeared behind Ning Qiuyang and spoke to him slowly.

Poseidon was quite satisfied with Ning Qiuyang's swift and decisive approach, but she did not want Xue Qinghe to go to extremes and start a war with Yu Yuanzhen.

After all, Yu Yuanzhen still has some use. He can be considered a successor of the Thunder God, although he is a temporary successor like Xue Qinghe, and there is basically no possibility of him inheriting the divine position.

After reporting the matter of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan to the Sea God, the Sea God contacted Poseidon again some time later.

Poseidon and Thor had a heated argument.

The Star Luo Empire was orchestrated by the God of Asura, while the Heaven Dou Empire was controlled by the God of Destruction.

The Sea God and the Thunder God debated before the God of Destruction. In the end, the God of Destruction concluded that the Sea God's side had a better argument. He argued that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan was using the orders of the God Realm to pursue their own interests without regard for the overall situation and needed to be punished.

However, considering the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan's considerable strength, they cannot be completely wiped out. Even if they die, they should die on the battlefield against the Spirit Hall.

"Qinghe understands and will not delay the Sea God's grand plan."

"That's good."

Although Poseidon knew that Xue Qinghe could not become the Sea God, he was still satisfied with Xue Qinghe's character and methods. Only a prince with such decisive methods and strong hands could complete the task assigned by the God Realm.

Yu Luomian noticed the tone of Xue Qinghe and Bo Saixi's conversation. Although Bo Saixi did not exude any power, Yu Luomian believed that this person's identity and status were definitely higher than that of the seven titled Douluo.

"Sect Master Yu, shouldn't you be taking care of some serious matters now?"

Ning Qiuyang walked down the city wall and strolled leisurely to a spot not far from Yu Yuanzhen, as if he wasn't the one who had just given the order to kill Yu Yuanzhen's grandson.

Yu Yuanzhen estimated the distance between the two.

He was very confident that he could kill Xue Qinghe. Even with seven Title Douluos by Ning Qiuyang's side, Xue Qinghe would definitely not be able to withstand his attacks at such close range.

Just as he was considering whether to take action, Poseidon snorted coldly.

Yu Yuanzhen took a few steps back, staring at Poseidon in shock.

This kind of pressure... this person's soul power is definitely much greater than his. Is this person a Limit Douluo?
Yu Yuan was shocked and horrified.

He thought that the seven Title Douluos were Xue Qinghe's greatest source of confidence, but he never expected that there was also a Limit Douluo.

Poseidon gave Yu Yuanzhen a look of disgust.

“You lack a sense of the bigger picture and are only interested in your own selfish interests. If you continue to be so ungrateful and disregard the important matters of the divine realm, I will take your life.” Poseidon disliked Yu Yuanzhen very much.

Yu Yuanzhen received divine favor, but he was only thinking about his own interests. He didn't take the tasks assigned to him seriously at all, but instead used the tasks to make a fortune. It was simply outrageous.

Although he worshipped the sea god, while Yu Luomian received the inheritance of the thunder god, in Poseidon's view, being favored by the gods meant being loyal to them and dedicating everything to them.

In the past, Yu Luomian's actions would never have earned him a chance to inherit a divine position.

"You...you also received a mission from the gods?"

Yu Yuanzhen felt as if he had been doused with a bucket of cold water, and immediately calmed down.

Poseidon said, "The God Realm has decreed that the Heaven Dou Empire's campaign against the Spirit Hall is entirely entrusted to Crown Prince Xue Qinghe. Your Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan must also obey the Crown Prince's orders, understand? If you don't believe me, you can ask the God of Thunder."

Yu Yuanzhen was filled with resentment, but dared not voice any objection.

Putting aside the orders from the gods, Poseidon's strength alone was something he couldn't defy.

Seeing Xue Qinghe's ambiguous smile, no matter how unwilling Yu Yuanzhen was, he could only say, "I understand. I will follow Your Highness's orders."

Ning Qiuyang nodded in satisfaction.

"That's right. You are fortunate to have received the favor of the Thunder God. You must complete the mission of the God Realm at all costs. I will now give your Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect a mission."

"Your Highness, please give your orders."

Yu Yuanzhen was stunned for a moment, and under Poseidon's gaze, he slowly bent down.

"With the campaign against the Spirit Hall imminent, we can't afford any problems at home. You're tasked with leading the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan to eliminate all the Spirit Hall members in the Heaven Dou Empire. That's not too much to ask of you, is it?"

"It's not difficult, I'll take care of it right away."

Yu Yuanzhen didn't want to stay in front of Xue Qinghe for a moment longer, so he took the order and immediately left with his men.

"High Priest, is what I did alright?"

After Yu Yuanzhen left, Ning Qiuyang asked Poseidon.

Even Poseidon managed a rare smile.

"His Highness the Crown Prince is prudent and considerate of the overall situation. Lord Sea God will surely praise him highly when he learns of this."

"That's good."

Ning Qiuyang pretended to be very happy.

He wasn't worried that Yu Yuanzhen would really severely damage the Soul Palace branch.

He had already informed Qian Renxue to consolidate the power of the two empires, preventing them from being defeated one by one.

The Spirit Halls in Tiandou City and Xingluo City have long been deserted. The Spirit Halls in various towns have either returned to the Spirit Hall or gone into hiding.

As for the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan, Ning Qiuyang still has a great gift waiting for them.

……

bang~
On the other side, as soon as he returned to his post, Yu Yuanzhen angrily smashed several tables, chairs and benches.

"This is outrageous! This is utterly outrageous! Xue Qinghe is just a child, how come he can receive the attention of the gods and be put in charge of all affairs of the Heavenly Dou Empire? What gives him the right?"

Since receiving the Thunder God's inheritance, Yu Yuanzhen had been complacent and this was the first time he had ever been so angry.

His grandson was killed, and he also lost many elders and elite disciples, but he could only swallow his anger and suffer in silence.

"Sect Master, can you contact Thor? What Xue Qinghe and the others said may not be true."

Yu Yuanzhen's expression changed.

Poseidon's strength is undeniable, and he speaks with conviction, so there's a high probability that he's telling the truth.

However, Yu Yuanzhen was truly unwilling to give up without making a definitive statement. (End of Chapter)
