Douluo Continent: Reincarnated as the Rock King Emperor, Wandering the Mortal World

Chapter 74: A scholar will die for one who understands him.

As fellow "Title Douluo", the old man believed he was qualified to sit down.

But the three young people were different.

So what if you're a genius?

A genius who doesn't grow up is just a genius in the end.

Hu Liena is the most senior of the three young people.

She was merely a disciple of the Pope, not a Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall, and therefore had no right to sit down.

The three of them were very clear about their own position. After bowing, they stood behind the old man.

After observing the three of them briefly, Zhong Li realized their identities.

Among the titled Douluo who enjoys heavy makeup, only the Spirit Hall elder, Yue Guan, has this hobby.

Adding to the "characteristics" of the three young men, he became even more certain of this.

Yue Guan, the three leaders of the Spirit Hall's Golden Generation, Hu Liena, Xie Yue, and Yan!

As Zhongli sized up the four people, the four people were also sizing up Zhongli.

To be honest, they had never seen such a handsome man before. Every move he made was elegant, and his expression was calm and composed, yet there was a hint of melancholy in it.

If you didn't know he was a powerful Title Douluo, you'd think he was a noble young master from some family.

"Grandpa, what happened to your face?"

Paimon floated beside Zhongli and spoke to Yueguan with a seemingly good expression.

Even though Yue Guan was heavily made up and her voice was a little strained, she could still tell the difference between a man and a woman.

Upon hearing this, Hu Liena, Xie Yue, and Yan were all shaken, feeling as if the air had turned several degrees colder.

You should know that Yue Guan hates it when people talk about his gender and his makeup!

This little guy...

Wait, an unidentified flying creature?

Is this Zhongli Mianxia's second martial soul?

Yue Guan was taken aback. He looked at Paimon, then at Zhongli. He slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air, waved his hand, and said, "My face is nothing to worry about; it's just a personal preference."

Why bother arguing so much with a child?

He could hear a sense of concern in Paimon's tone.

The little guy genuinely cares about him; he's not mocking him.

Paimon was taken aback and scratched his head, somewhat puzzled.

Personal hobby?

That's quite a unique hobby!

"So that's how it is."

Although I don't understand, it's the old man's freedom to do whatever he wants.

In Mondstadt, this kind of freedom shouldn't be considered heresy, right?

After all, Barbatos was wearing white stockings...

When stockings first appeared, they were indeed meant for men.

Barbatos's attire is not entirely incomprehensible.

"???"

Seeing Paimon's understanding expression only made Yue Guan more confused!

It's fair to say that no one on the entire Douluo Continent can understand him!

Even if it's his good brother, Ghost, he can accept it, but he doesn't understand it!

"Little one, aren't you curious why I'm like this?"

Originally, Yue Guan referred to himself as "this old man," but now, his tone has changed, and he's calling himself "I."

"You're curious, but isn't that your right?"

Her first stop in the Seven Kingdoms was Mondstadt, where she spent quite a bit of time and thus had some understanding of freedom.

Upon hearing this, Yue Guan was slightly startled, and after a moment, he reacted: "Hahaha..."

His imposing aura emanated unintentionally, making everyone certain of one thing: this old man was a powerful figure!

"Okay, okay, okay!"

Yue Guan clapped his hands and said several "good"s in a row.

"What a wonderful freedom!"

"Yes, this is my freedom!"

After all these years, finally someone understands him!

Wait a minute, Paimon isn't human, she's a martial spirit...

After all these years, finally a martial spirit can understand him!

sad!

What understood him was actually his martial spirit!

"Little fellow, my name is Yue Guan, and my title is Chrysanthemum. I am an elder of the Spirit Hall."

"hiss……"

Upon hearing this, the people in the teahouse couldn't help but gasp.

Moon Pass?

title?

Elder of the Spirit Hall?

The person in front of me is actually the legendary Chrysanthemum Douluo!

According to rumors, Yue Guan was capricious and a ruthless executioner.

But seeing them today, these "prejudices" seem a bit off.

He is still very reasonable.

"From now on, whatever you ask of me, I'll go through fire and water for you!"

Yue Guan said to Paimon with a determined look on his face.

A scholar will die for one who understands him, and a woman will adorn herself for one who appreciates her!

Regardless of whether Paimon is human or not, and regardless of whether she possesses a martial spirit, being able to understand him is what makes a true friend!

"Sigh~"

Paimon looked completely bewildered and somewhat at a loss.

What is this heavily made-up old man saying?

Hu Liena, Xie Yue, and Yan were all numb.

The Pope ordered Chrysanthemum Douluo to "capture" Zhongli, but before he could even exchange a few words, Chrysanthemum Douluo was captured!

What a terrifying vow it is to brave mountains of knives and seas of fire!

Titled Douluo can't make oaths lightly; if they can't keep their promises, their soul power level is very likely to stagnate.

Yue Guan's words were indeed a bit harsh!

Fortunately, they didn't say it out loud, otherwise Yue Guan might have asked them, "Where is it heavier?"

"Little one, although my reputation on Douluo Continent isn't great, I'm a person of my word, and I never go back on my promises!"

Yue Guan said with a solemn expression.

There's a reason he's dressed like this.

He wants to live in place of his deceased sister!

Even if he is looked down upon or ridiculed, he remains the same and has never changed.

Now that he finally has someone who understands him, Yue Guan is overjoyed.

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes twitched, and they nodded in agreement.

Chrysanthemum Douluo's reputation is indeed not very good, and he is well aware of this.

However, the biggest reason for his bad reputation is his heavy makeup.

It would be one thing if she were a woman, but he's a man!

Paimon blinked and instinctively said, "Thank you, grandpa."

"I... I don't think I'm anything special. If it's alright, do you have anything good to eat?"

At this point, Paimon looked on with anticipation.

Yue Guan: "..."

Everyone: "..."

The three little ones: "..."

Everyone felt their heads buzzing. The titled Douluo's promise? She just wanted to eat!

As expected of Paimon!

Yue Guan was taken aback at first, then looked at Paimon again. This little guy has a pure heart!

No wonder she can understand herself.

"Okay, when I get back, I'll collect all sorts of food for you!"

Yue Guan spoke solemnly, as if this matter were extremely serious.

Hu Liena, Xie Yue, and Yan were all numb at this moment!

They knew Chrysanthemum Douluo's personality all too well.

But what did they see today?

Could something like this really happen to Chrysanthemum Douluo?

They didn't know that although Yue Guan had an eccentric personality, he was a Title Douluo who loved flowers.

At the same time, he is also a very loyal and affectionate person!

Even after Ghost Douluo died, knowing he was no match for Tang San, he still sought revenge against Tang San. He died without regret.
