Douluo Dragon King: I am the Lord of the Abyss, the King of Eternal Night.

Chapter 432 The Struggle for the Orthodox Lineage of the Spirit Pagoda! The End of the Immortal Herbs!

"Is someone planning to raid our base?!"

Na'er's purple eyes were wary, and the silver ahoge on her head kept shaking, like a probe.

She always had this feeling whenever someone tried to raid her home.

"Gu Yue, what are you thinking about?" Seeing the joyful smile in Gu Yue's beautiful eyes, Na'er felt a sense of unease.

Sure enough, that wicked woman Gu Yue still hasn't given up on stealing her boss!

"Hmm?" Gu Yue raised her eyes and glanced at Na'er, picked up the Rising Dragon Pillar in front of her that was ready to be activated at any time, and slowly stood up.

"I am delighted that a god-level powerhouse is about to emerge from our soul beast race. Is there anything I can do for you?"

Upon hearing this, Na'er's red lips immediately pursed, and her purple eyes remained wary as she said, "You'd better be like that!"

Looking at Na'er, who was sitting half-upright on the bed, Gu Yue recalled the feeling of sudden enlightenment she had just experienced. A glint flashed in her dark eyes, and her red lips slightly parted as she said:
"Even if that's not the case, what can you do to me, Na'er?"

Na'er paused for a moment, then her pretty face flushed red. "Gu Yue, you're not going to act anymore, are you trying to rob me outright now?"

As she spoke, Na'er tried to get up, but due to the excessive soul power and mental energy consumed by activating the Dragon Ascension Pillar, and with Gu Yue pressing her down with her slender white fingers, Na'er's delicate body, which had just stood up, fell back onto the soft bed.

Gu Yue straightened her black and gold skirt, raised her fair neck, her cool and pretty face filled with arrogance, and her beautiful eyes revealed a hint of haughtiness and mockery.

"Na'er, is that all you've got?"

"Damn it!" Na'er glared at Gu Yue in front of her, her teeth chattering and her cheeks puffing out.

"It's alright, Na'er. Considering that we are of the same origin, I might as well leave you some soup after I've eaten my fill." Gu Yue's red lips curled up even more upon seeing this.

"I was here first!" Na'er said with a hint of grief and indignation.

"The struggle for half a body has always been like this!"

Gu Yue didn't take it to heart and leaned down to look at Na'er.

"Gu Yue, I will never let you succeed!" Na'er said through gritted teeth.

"Then let's wait and see." Gu Yuexiang shrugged slightly, lifted her slender legs and walked off the bed. With the princess of the Star Luo Empire by her side, she had enough confidence.

"I'm so angry!" Na'er was both ashamed and indignant, but now she could only watch Gu Yue leave.

"By the way, Na'er, don't forget your important business. Right now, thanks to Qian Gu Dongfeng's manipulation, people from the Qian Gu family faction are spreading rumors that Qian Gu Zhangting is the next successor of the Spirit Pagoda, and since he is the legitimate heir, you mustn't embarrass yourself."

As he was leaving, Gu Yue seemed to remember something and turned to give him some instructions.

Currently, the Leng family led by Leng Yaozhu and the Qian Gu family led by Qian Gu Dongfeng are locked in a fierce confrontation.

As Qian Gu Zhangting grows older and the position of the next young tower master of the Spirit Transmission Tower is about to be established, the two opposing factions are pushed to a climax.

Although Gu Yue and Na'er had a conflict over half of their bodies, that was a family matter, so they still needed to unite against the outsiders from the Qian Gu family.

"Hmph, what rightful status?" Na'er scoffed. "The boss said that major powers never play the game of succession; whoever wins is the rightful heir!"

"I hope so." Gu Yue gave Na'er a deep look before stepping into the space.

Na'er's ability to become the young master of the Spirit Pagoda also greatly helped her plans.

"Damn it! Damn it! That wicked woman Gu Yue doesn't even hide from people anymore!" After Gu Yue left, Na'er clenched her fists and kept pounding the pillow.

"No! The boss belongs to Na'er! We absolutely cannot let Gu Yue seize the initiative!" After pounding her fists, Na'er rallied and said firmly with her purple eyes.

Although she knew Gu Yue had ulterior motives, she didn't expect it to happen so quickly.

She never intended to monopolize the boss's position; as long as the boss always had her in his heart, that was enough. Besides, Gu Yue had always wanted to steal the boss's place, but as the rightful wife, she absolutely could not let Gu Yue, the newcomer, take the throne first.

"Hmph, once I've secured my position as the Empress, I'll punish Gu Yue by making her eavesdrop... No, I can't punish her so lightly, I should make her stay behind me..."

As she pondered, Na'er's beautiful eyes curved like crescent moons.

"However, currently only Xiong Jun among the ferocious beasts obeys my orders, so the plan to control all the ferocious beasts in the world must not be abandoned!"

Na'er made up her mind, then slowly got up and walked outside. After a long night, her stomach was rumbling.

However, she has already decided that she will never easily accept food from others again.

After all, in her opinion, the oranges that Gu Yue gave her last night didn't seem like compensation for activating the Dragon Ascension Pillar, but rather compensation for stealing from her boss.

"Heh, so it's true that women only make amends when they feel indebted!" Na'er curled her lip. She had read too many romance novels and had long since memorized these tropes.

As soon as she opened the door, Na'er saw her master, Leng Yaozhu, walk in, carrying her favorite breakfast and a basket of fresh oranges.

"Ahem, Na'er, come and have breakfast..."

Upon seeing Na'er, Leng Yaozhu's dark red eyes flickered slightly. After clearing her throat, she placed the breakfast on the table.

Because of what happened with Jiang Xiu, she felt indebted to Na'er, so she prepared Na'er's favorite oranges. Although they weren't expensive, they were a way of making amends to Na'er.

"Wow! Master is the best!" Na'er's eyes lit up and she quickly sat down at the table, instantly starting to eat.

"Master, you're so kind. Unlike those other bad women, who only try to make amends to Na'er because they owe her something, you're the only one who truly cares for Na'er..."

Na'er said as she ate.

"Ahem, Na'er, if you like it, eat more..."

Upon hearing this, Leng Yaozhu's eyes darted away slightly, and she coughed to offer some advice. But in her heart, she silently thought:
"Na'er, Master isn't exactly a bad woman..."

……

Shrek Academy.

Inside Ye Xinglan's dormitory.

"Ye Xinglan, I will not allow you to leave Shrek Academy! Do you hear me?"

A dignified voice came from the communication device held by Ye Xinglan, sternly rebuking her.

“Father, as you have seen by now, Shrek Academy stole the Body Secret of the Body Sect. Although Shrek Academy has denied this to the public, you should know the truth behind it.”

A rare hint of sadness appeared on Ye Xinglan's resolute face. "My swordsmanship shouldn't continue to be learned in this kind of academy. Going to the Federation's legion or the Temple of War would be more beneficial for me to become stronger..."

"Foolish! Shrek Academy is merely temporarily holding onto the secret manuals for the Body Sect!" Ye Xinglan's father shouted in a deep voice.
Shrek Academy has now begun public relations efforts to refute the rumors.

After a pause, Ye Xinglan's father continued, "Moreover, Shrek Academy is more beneficial to our family. When Shrek Academy is in dire straits, it needs our support even more."

In his view, this is just like the Federal stock market. Shrek Academy is currently down, and his family can buy at the bottom!
After all, even a starved camel is bigger than a horse; Shrek Academy is far larger than their family, and this incident is not enough to severely damage Shrek Academy.

Therefore, as long as Shrek Academy doesn't experience a margin call, they are guaranteed to make a profit.

"Explosion" refers to something disappearing overnight. Shrek Academy has been passed down for 20,000 years, so how could it possibly disappear overnight?

"Father, I..." Upon hearing this, Ye Xinglan's eyes dimmed even further.

"There's no room for discussion on this!" Father Ye said firmly.

"As long as Shrek Academy exists, you must stay within Shrek Academy!"

After saying that, Ye's father abruptly hung up the communication device.

Ye Xinglan gripped the communication soul tool tightly in her hand, a hint of confusion and hesitation appearing in her eyes.

But then she remembered what Jiang Xiu had told her: she just needed to cultivate quietly and wait.

"Is it really possible to leave simply by quietly cultivating...?"

Ye Xinglan gazed out the window and murmured something softly.

……

Two and a half days later.

Sunset Forest.

Amidst the swirling, multicolored poisonous mist, Hu Jie leaped from the mountaintop, his figure swiftly piercing through the mist as he descended towards the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye below.

"Master Hu, why are you here again?" Before Hu Jie could even land, Qi Luo Tulip appeared with an unhappy expression and a hint of threat in her eyes.

"Does Hall Master Hu want to test the strength of our Dragon Lord again?"

Hu Jie landed slowly on the ground. Upon hearing this, a hint of sternness flashed in his eyes, but his expression remained unchanged. Instead, he smiled and said:

"I came down here specifically to check on everyone's safety because I was worried about your safety."

He brought people with him this time, but confronting these immortal herbs is of no use whatsoever.

He'll show these magical herbs what it means to fly in a moment!
However, before that, he needed to clear himself of suspicion, and at that moment, Hu Jie had a recording soul tool in his hand.

With these immortal herbs refusing, he could conveniently use this opportunity to be transferred back to the Tang Sect headquarters, and even if something happened in the future, he wouldn't be blamed.

After all, when he returns to the Body Sect in the future, he will have to make public appearances anyway...

“Master Hu, I’m glad you thought of this, but I’m very unhappy that you’ve entered the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well again without permission.”

Qiluo Tulip crossed her arms and said, "So please, Hall Master Hu, leave."

"That's right, the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well doesn't welcome you."

Liehuo Xingjiao Shu then coldly echoed.

Upon hearing this, Hu Jie's expression slowly turned cold, and he feigned anger, saying:

"These are the words of several people themselves. If something really happens to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well in the future, don't blame me for not protecting it properly!"

Actually, he was overjoyed when he heard what Xiancao said. This was exactly what he wanted, but he couldn't show it yet.

"Hmph, you're just a Super Douluo. With the Dragon Lord here, we don't need your protection!" Lie Huoxing sneered.

Although Qiluo Tulip did not speak, her expression conveyed the same meaning.

"Good! Very good! But if anything goes wrong, I, the hall master, will not take any responsibility whatsoever!"

Hu Jie seemed to be enraged, and with a furious flick of his sleeve, he stood up and flew into the sky.

After passing through the poisonous fog, Hu Jie looked down at the immortal herbs below, which seemed to be proud of having driven him away, and couldn't help but smile.

"Still so arrogant, huh? We're here to collect your taxes!"
