Douluo Continent: Starting with a Void Treasure Trove

Chapter 159 The Bizarre Truth

It's cyan!

Moreover, upon closer inspection, it also reveals a hint of gold.

Xu Tianran's voice rang out.

"I have tested the bloodstains on this stone; it was done by my best scholar."

"The result he told me was that the bloodstains did not belong to humans, but could only be from high-level soul beasts."

"Moreover, it is very likely that it has reached the level of a ferocious beast. The dragon bloodline in this drop of blood is very concentrated. Even if I wanted to suppress it with my own Purple Emperor Annihilation Dragon bloodline, I would still have to pay a price."

"Therefore, I suspect that the fall of His Majesty the Purple Emperor is very likely related to the owner of this drop of blood."

"It would be impossible for an ordinary ferocious beast to kill His Majesty Zihuang, unless it is one of the top three absolute soul beast powerhouses on the continent."

"Ice and Snow Maiden, Snow Empress."

"The Evil Eye Tyrant Lord, the Evil Emperor.

"And your ally, the number one soul beast on the continent, the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King—Di Tian."

"But one thing that puzzles me is that these three have no connection with this unfamiliar soul beast powerhouse in terms of either attributes or bloodline."

"Therefore, I am more inclined to believe that the one who killed His Majesty Zihuang was a powerful soul beast that we have never recorded before, hiding in the shadows."

.

After Xu Tianran finished speaking his guess, he seemed to have exhausted all his strength, and a thin layer of sweat appeared on his face, even though he was a titled official.

He didn't touch the stone; instead, he handed it to Xu Yang.

Xu Yang stared at the stone in silence, never expecting that the one in the heavens would have such a deep scheme.

It's likely that he was targeted by the God of Destruction at the same time his father was noticed.

He put the stone into his storage soul tool.

"Your Highness, I owe you a favor."

"I have to admit, you've given me a big surprise. Ever since my martial soul awakened, I've had many guesses about the cause of my parents' death, and what you've brought out has just helped me resolve many of my doubts."

"From now on, as long as it's within my capabilities and doesn't go against my conscience, I can grant you one request—"

Xu Tianran laughed, a carefree laugh.

The last time he was this happy was when he sent his good brother, who had ruined him, to the guillotine.

Although the man was cursing fiercely, every word he uttered sounded more like a compliment to him.

In his view, Xu Yang's promise was far more useful than those of the elders in the Hall of Worship. At least—if he wanted to succeed to the position in the future, there would be no difficulty whatsoever.

And then there's His Majesty Zihuang. It's unlikely he can avenge his idol, but it seems—his idol's family is more capable, and they seem to know things he doesn't—

Xu Tianran no longer wanted to think about the reasons behind it. For him, today's meeting was a very fruitful one.

It's all thanks to his persistence back then —

Xu Yang left, without a sound.

After about half an hour, seeing that the soul-blocking device had been turned off, Orange tentatively knocked on the door.

"Your Highness, what is the Prince doing here—"

"Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"

"There are some things it's better not to know."

Xu Yang suppressed his anger. To be honest, he was now capable of killing the owner of that drop of blood, the murderer who killed his parents.

Gu Yuena was invincible in the Douluo Continent if Tang San did not descend to become a god.

But—some things are more meaningful if you do them yourself.

"Those two beasts from the Haotian Sect, the day he breaks through to the Title Douluo level will be the day they both perish!"

"And there's also—Tang San!"

He had even suspected that Mu En was behind it, because in his memory, Mu En had visited the Sun Moon Empire and, seeing how high his parents' potential was, it would be worthwhile for him to eliminate a future enemy.

Xu Yang took a deep breath, trying his best to control his emotions. He didn't want to be dominated by anger.

Xu Yang returned home, feeling that he needed some comfort from Zhang Lexuan, the class's counselor.

"What's wrong—?"

Zhang Lexuan's gentle voice rang in Xu Yang's ears.

After returning home, Xu Yang went straight to Zhang Lexuan's room.

"Is it because you didn't get along well with that Crown Prince, or is there some other reason?"

Zhang Lexuan sat down next to Xu Yang. The moment she saw him, she noticed that he was in a bad mood. Although Xu Yang controlled himself well, Zhang Lexuan was a very observant person.

"I just discovered something really sad, Sister Lexuan. In a way, we're really in the same boat."

Xu Yang's voice was flat, devoid of any emotion.

But—as someone who's been through it, Zhang Lexuan knows that this kind of situation causes the most damage to the body.

Some things, kept in your heart, will eventually become bombs that detonate within you.

She didn't know why Xu Yang had changed so much after returning from Xu Tianran's place, but—she knew that Xu Yang needed comfort and companionship right now—

So, before Xu Yang could react, she pulled half of his body into her arms. Xu Yang's head rested on Zhang Lexuan's plump thighs.

You can still smell her scent on the tip of your nose.

"Sister Lexuan, I—"

"Don't talk. Whatever the problem is, just sleep it off. Just like you helped me back then, now it's my turn to help you."

As Zhang Lexuan spoke, she covered Xu Yang's eyes with her hands while humming a lullaby, just like a childhood song.

For some reason, Xu Yang's mind completely relaxed, and he fell asleep again without realizing it.

It seems Zhang Lexuan really sleeps well here.

When he woke up, he found himself still resting his head on Zhang Lexuan's lap. After glancing at the time, he realized that another day and night had passed.

Zhang Lexuan didn't ask any more questions. After discovering that Xu Yang had woken up, she continued to prepare medicine to regulate his body and soothe his mind.

Xu Yang felt that his feelings for Zhang Lexuan were a little different, but after a brief period of struggle, he came to terms with it.

He—really enjoyed this feeling.

that's enough.

It's been three days now, and today he's taking Zhang Lexuan to deal with the matter of her becoming his mentor, which he mentioned earlier.

The two of them tacitly remained silent during the meal.

Xu Yang made another soul communication call to Xiao Hongchen, as this matter should have been handled by Jing Hongchen.

Unfortunately, since Jing Hongchen obtained that ninth-grade purple fungus a few months ago and started clamoring to break through, there has been no news at all.

Breaking through to Super Douluo is still too difficult for a Title Douluo like Jing Hongchen whose talent is completely locked, but Xu Yang is not worried. The Ninth Grade Purple Ganoderma has a mild medicinal property, so even if Jing Hongchen fails to break through, it will not cause too much damage to his body.
