Douluo Continent: Narration Modified, Everyone Goes Crazy!

Chapter 49 Master Yu Meets Emperor Xueye!

"How is this possible? How could Xiaogang do such a thing? I don't believe it!"

Upon hearing that the Shrek Seven Devils had come to Heaven Dou City to investigate Master Yu for stealing Tang San's martial arts techniques, Liu Erlong smashed the wooden table in front of her with a single palm strike.

The Master Yu in her mind was definitely not that kind of person. The upright Master Yu who had dreams and ran away on his wedding night because she was his cousin would never do such a thing!

"Second Sister, I know you can't accept it right away. Actually, I felt the same way when I first found out."

Flander said with a bitter expression, clearly feeling uneasy about his brother's current state in front of an old friend.

"I also miss the time when our golden trio traveled around the mainland, but people change. The Xiaogang we know now is not the same Xiaogang we used to know."

Recalling the time more than a decade ago, and comparing the man from that memory with the man he is now, Flander felt a deep sense of melancholy.

"More than a decade has passed! Even water dripping on stone can wear it down, and even an iron rod can be ground into a needle, let alone a person. More than a decade of ordinariness, more than a decade of repression, more than a decade of unfulfilled dreams—Xiaogang is no longer the person we remember. Would I really frame him?"

"We can all testify! Master Yu is now willing to eat shit! What wouldn't he dare to do!"

"Yeah, yeah, why would we lie to you when there are so many of us here? Once we find him, a simple investigation will reveal everything, right?"

"We understand how you feel, but Master Yu is such a shameless scoundrel!"

"It's also possible that he was good at pretending before, but now he can't keep up the act anymore!"

"If he truly had a conscience, he wouldn't have abandoned you on your wedding night!"

The Shrek students started discussing it amongst themselves.

"Shut up, all of you!"

Upon hearing what everyone was saying, Liu Erlong stood up angrily, but then slumped back down.

She wanted to refute these people's words, but she knew that any rebuttal would be a weak argument with no persuasive power.

"I will send someone to investigate this matter. Until the results are in, I think it's better for us to stay calm."

Although that's what she said, judging from Liu Erlong's expression, she was probably 80% convinced. After all, with so many witnesses, who would lie? Moreover, there were her former friend Flander and Tang San, Yu Da Shi's current disciple, among them. Her current rage was nothing but self-deception.

She didn't want to prove that she had really misjudged him, and she didn't want to get an unacceptable result after waiting for so many years, because that would make her waiting and her life seem meaningless.

Because of one person, Master Yu arrived at the auction house in Heaven Dou City earlier than the Shrek Academy group. In order to successfully conduct the auction and spread his reputation, Master Yu thoughtfully came up with a new name for Tang San's martial arts technique, changing it to Yu Family Divine Skill, or Yoga for short.

"Sir, is this the only cultivation technique you wish to auction?"

"That's right!"

The maid in charge of receiving him was also very polite and perceptive. She did not look down on Master Yu because of his ordinary clothes. After confirming the auction items, she immediately led Master Yu to the advanced appraisal room.

Although auctioning martial arts techniques is relatively rare, it's not like there aren't specialized appraisers.

"The way this technique circulates soul power is truly unprecedented!"

"Based on my observation, I can only confirm that this is an extremely advanced and rare soul power circulation technique, but whether it has the effects described above needs to be determined by a specialist practicing it."

After a professional assessment, they indicated that if there was no rush, it would take about one to two years to provide a more professional result.

"Of course, if you're in a hurry, we can hold an auction like this, but the price might be affected if the outcome is unclear."

"However, you can rest assured about the security. No one will know that you auctioned this martial arts manual, and the details of the auction will absolutely not be disclosed to anyone except those inside the auction house."

Upon hearing the answers from these senior appraisers, Master Yu immediately became anxious.

What?! Let's not even talk about the fact that it takes time to verify, that's reasonable. But Master Yu simply cannot accept the principle of confidentiality!

I auctioned this to make myself famous, to let everyone know that this is my work, and now you're telling me it's a secret? Isn't that ridiculous?

"Could we make an exception? Change the rules?"

"I'm sorry, sir, but we may not be able to fulfill this request. After all, the origin of many things cannot be disclosed. If your special case causes others to lose trust in our auction house, it would be more than just a matter of loss."

"Can't I even ask for it myself?"

"That won't work either. If you need publicity, you should go to royalty or nobility. I believe they would be happy to help you with your publicity."

Seeing that Master Yu was still determined to continue using the auction house's trust for publicity, the auction house manager kindly declined and gave him some guidance.

"I heard that Emperor Xueye has recently contracted a strange illness. If the effects of your yoga are truly as described, you could try your luck at the royal court."

"The royal family? It seems I'll have to rely on my identity as a member of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan to see Emperor Xueye."

After much deliberation, Master Yu decided to use the name of his sect, which he didn't want to mention, when he met Emperor Xueye, in order to fulfill his long-held dream and obsession.

"The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan wants to see me?"

Upon hearing the guard's report, Emperor Xueye was also somewhat puzzled.

It should be noted that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan is one of the three great sects, along with the Clear Sky Clan and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan. Although they have connections with the royal family, it is still very rare for them to take the initiative to seek an audience with Emperor Xueye.

"Did the visitor say what brings them here?"

"Your Majesty, the visitor claims to be Yu Xiaogang, the son of the current patriarch of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan. He says he has created a peerless method for cultivating soul power and wishes to discuss it with Your Majesty."

"Yu Xiaogang? I seem to remember him."

Upon hearing the name, Emperor Xueye pondered for a moment but couldn't recall any specific memories.

"It's that Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan martial soul from over ten years ago that mutated into a pig. He was quite close to the Pope of the Spirit Hall and even proposed some kind of ten core competitiveness of martial souls."

Seeing that Emperor Xueye had no recollection of the event, the attendant thoughtfully provided an explanation.

"Oh, now that you mention it, I remember you! It's that theoretical master! He disappeared after a while, so why is he back after more than ten years? And what's with this original soul power cultivation technique? Did he finish his seclusion and research?"

After listening to the servant's words, Emperor Xueye also became interested and began to wonder what Master Yu had researched and developed over the years.
