Douluo Continent: I was exposed by the Heavenly Ranking after creating the Holy Court.

Chapter 17 Saint Puni? Dugu Bo sees through Jiang Che's identity!
Xue Beng's martial spirit is the same as Xue Qinghe's.
It is the swan, the inherited martial spirit of the Heaven Dou Empire's royal family.

To avoid arousing suspicion, he ran a distance before releasing it.

After meeting Dugu Bo,

Avalanche explained the whole story to him in the simplest terms.
Dugu Bo was furious upon hearing this.
That was his only family member in the world.

She's his precious granddaughter, and he usually can't bear to lecture her. Now, even a mere Soul Saint dares to bully her?
Dugu Bo immediately summoned his Martial Soul True Form and rushed over with Xue Beng.

"My dear granddaughter!"

Seeing Dugu Yan standing there unharmed,

Dugu Bo looked delighted, withdrew his martial spirit, and landed in front of Dugu Yan with Avalanche. He said anxiously, "My dear granddaughter, are you alright? You really scared your grandfather to death."

Seeing that Dugu Yan was alright, Xue Beng, who was standing to the side, also breathed a sigh of relief.

If something really happens to Dugu Yan today, it will be related to me.

A look of doubt appeared on his face: "Sister Yanzi? Those two Soul Saints didn't hurt you?"

Given Dugu Yan's character, he would never give them an antidote. Something must have happened during the short time he was away.

Upon hearing the avalanche mentioned, Dugu Bo suddenly remembered...

His tone revealed a ruthless edge: "My dear granddaughter, where are those two Soul Saints? They dared to hurt you, I'd like to see how many lives they have left!"

He had just injured the Poison Douluo's granddaughter.

That would mean certain death!

Dugu Yan smiled calmly, then turned her gaze to Jiang Che and Muse, who were standing not far away, and said, "Grandpa, thanks to this senior, he taught those people a lesson."

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo followed Dugu Yan's gaze, his eyes narrowing as he carefully examined the young man before him.

To be able to easily defeat two Soul Saints, one's cultivation level must be at least that of a Soul Douluo, or even a Title Douluo.

Even though a Title Douluo might appear younger,
But the person in front of me looks far too young.

As for that woman, he couldn't sense any fluctuations in her soul power either, so her cultivation level was probably above his own.

Dugu Bo walked forward with a smile. When Muse saw this, she frowned slightly and was about to stand in front of Jiang Che.

Jiang Che slightly raised his hand to indicate that nothing was wrong.

"Thank you for your righteous help in saving my granddaughter."

"I am Dugu Bo, and my account bans are deadly."

"I have no way to repay your great kindness. I owe you a favor, young friend. I still do not know your name?"

The powerful figures who came to Soto City were all waiting for the Holy Lord in front of the Holy Court. The person in front of them was no ordinary person. As a titled Douluo, Dugu Bo was extremely shrewd.

The person before me is very likely a powerful figure within the Holy Court.

Jiang Che wasn't stupid. His name had already spread throughout the continent. If he revealed his identity now, how would he ever be able to make a comeback?

He casually waved his hand and, without the slightest hesitation, blurted out, "Poison Douluo, you're too kind. I am Puni."

"Oh~ Puni? Hehe..." Dugu Bo nodded.

After the Heavenly Ranking descended upon the world, Dugu Bo also learned that there were still many hidden powerhouses on this continent, but the person in front of him was very likely from the Holy Court.

He looked at Jiang Che, somewhat puzzled, and asked, "Are you planning to go back, sir?"

Jiang Che shook his head slightly and said calmly, "I have nothing to do, so I'm planning to stroll around for a while longer."

Dugu Bo smiled and said:
"In that case, why don't you travel with us?"

"When I came to Soto, I heard that there was a Listening to the Rain Pavilion in the city."

"The tea there is said to be even better than that in Tiandou City. Why don't we have a few cups together?"

Would you like some tea?
It's getting late,

Even if I go back to the Holy Court at night, there's nothing to do.
Indeed, it's not as pleasant as enjoying tea with the old man. After a moment's thought,
Jiang Che nodded slightly and said decisively, "Alright, let's go together then."

Seeing that Jiang Che agreed,
Dugu Bo's face was full of surprise.

It would be good to make friends with a Title Douluo, and today is just the right opportunity.

Dugu Bo then introduced his granddaughter and Xue Beng's identities to Jiang Che and the other person, and the group strolled around Soto City.

Soto City is not large, and in a short while, the group arrived at Tingyu Tower.

The Tingyu Tower is a magnificent building, and guests come and go frequently, which shows how popular it is.

Dugu Bo led the group into the building. He tossed a bag of gold soul coins on the counter and said to the waiter, "Bring five superior rooms, a table of good dishes, and some of our fragrant tea."

The events that had just occurred had already spread throughout the city, and the waiter knew that these people were no ordinary individuals.

He dared not be negligent and proceeded with utmost respect.
He led Jiang Che and the others to a private room on the second floor and poured them hot tea.

have to say,

The tea at Tingyulou is indeed quite unique.

The taste upon tasting it is even sweeter than the tea served in the sanctuary.

Dugu Bo pointed to the tea in front of him and said to Jiang Che, "I wonder if the fragrant tea from Tingyu Tower suits your taste, young friend Puni?"

Jiang Che nodded in satisfaction and said to Muse sitting beside him, "When we leave, we'll buy more of this tea to take back with us."

The Muse nodded with a smile.

Although she didn't say anything, she made a note of it, since she was personally in charge of the Holy Lord's afternoon tea.

Dugu Bo also observed the way Jiang Che and the other person interacted, and he could sense that the young man's identity was definitely not simple.

Subsequently,

The waiter quickly served a table full of delicious dishes.

Dugu Bo chatted with Jiang Che for a few more minutes, but Jiang Che responded indifferently.

after awhile,

He couldn't contain himself any longer and gave his granddaughter a wink.

Dugu Yan was also shrewd; she quickly understood her grandfather's meaning.

She looked at the avalanche and said, "I suddenly remembered that the team has a match tonight. Why don't you come with me to the Great Arena?"

Xue Beng paused, and although puzzled, he nodded.

In front of the vice-captain of the Heavenly Dou Royal Team, this fourth prince was excessively obedient.

After the two left,
Dugu Bo put down his chopsticks and looked at Jiang Che with a somewhat serious expression.

Jiang Che sighed, glanced at Dugu Bo, and said, "Please speak your mind, sir."

Dugu Bo glanced at Muse again.
He then looked at Jiang Che and asked, "I think... young friend Puni must be from the Holy Court, right?"

As soon as this word comes out,
Muse's eyes flickered almost imperceptibly.

Dugu Bo was terrified and nervously watched Jiang Che.

To have a Title Douluo accompanying you, and to be so polite,
The person in front of me is very likely the Lord of the Holy Court—Jiang Che!
People all over the world only know the name of the Holy Court Lord, but who can know the Holy Court Lord's joys and sorrows?
Dugu Bo was afraid that his words would anger Jiang Che.
He would be instantly killed by the Holy Lord, and then he would have no chance to obtain the Seven Illusions Azure Spirit Liquid for his granddaughter.

Jiang Che smiled calmly and said with emotion:
"Hehe, as expected of Poison Douluo, you still managed to see through my scheme."

"Let's talk about it tomorrow morning. I'm a bit tired today."

Hearing Jiang Che's words,

Dugu Bo was taken aback at first, and then a look of joy appeared on his slightly aged face.
