Chapter 227 What Iron Triangle? A Love Triangle? [Please Subscribe! Please Vote!]

After Dugu Bo brought Tang San back to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy to report that they were safe, he followed Tang San to the Sunset Forest in the southern part of the Heaven Dou Plain near Heaven Dou City.

Chen Hong then reappeared at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy. After obtaining the qualification to enter the Heaven Dou Royal Academy Library from the three old deans of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, he spent all his time at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy and did not care about the conferment ceremony of the title by the Technology Chamber of Commerce in Heaven Dou City.

On the other side, Yu Xiaogang also found Liu Erlong, the dean of Blue Tyrant Academy and the Killing Horn of the Golden Iron Triangle, a woman with a fiery temper and a hot figure.

"Xiao Gang, are you inviting me to join your Shrek Academy?" Inside Blue Tyrant Academy, Liu Erlong stared blankly at the gaunt man exuding a颓废 (颓废 is a difficult word to translate directly, but it conveys a sense of decadence, listlessness, and apathy) aura in front of her, her voice trembling slightly as she said, "You've lost weight."

Yu Xiaogang looked at the beautiful woman in front of him with somewhat evasive eyes, and then fell silent: "."

Only when a gentle breeze lifted a strand of hair from the beauty's cheek, breaking Yu Xiaogang's silence, did he say with a heavy heart, "Erlong, I need your help."

In front of Chen Hong, Yu Xiaogang had fully realized his own weakness. He was no longer the spirited genius scholar he once was. Yu Xiaogang could feel himself becoming less and less valued by the Spirit Hall, a place revered throughout the continent. If he wanted to improve his Ten Theories of Spirit, he had to find a way to concentrate his power. Only in this way would Yu Xiaogang be qualified to leverage a more powerful force.

Swish!

A fragrant, fiery breeze swept into Yu Xiaogang's arms. Liu Erlong threw herself into his embrace, hugging his waist, her eyes filled with tears, and said, "You finally know you need help."

Yu Xiaogang stared blankly down at the beauty in his arms. At that moment, he suddenly realized that the beautiful young girl he once knew was now a woman in her thirties.

"I'm sorry." Yu Xiaogang's voice trembled, and he stiffly raised his arm, slowly placing it on Liu Erlong's back before relaxing.

"Sigh." In the distance, a hazy black figure with wings on its back silently watched everything from mid-air. Finally, it sighed softly and disappeared.

"Don't you three ever get together?"

On a bustling street in Tiandou City, a burly man with a crew cut looked at the silent, bespectacled middle-aged man beside him.

"What 'iron triangle'? A love triangle?" The middle-aged man with hawk-like eyes paused slightly upon hearing this, then said in a deep voice, "Actually, you've seen it yourself. No matter what, she always loved him. I used to dream about it too, but..."

"The tree on one side of the road fell in love with the tree on the other side. The story begins, and it ends just as well." Suddenly, on the streets of Tiandou City, two handsome men walked towards them from a distance. The man in the lead had deep eyes, as bright as a galaxy. He looked at the crew-cut, burly man and the bespectacled middle-aged man and chuckled, "Long time no see, Teacher Zhao, and Dean Flander."

Zhao Wuji: "."

Flanders: "."

Zhao Wuji and Flander looked at Chen Hong and Ning Quan with surprise. Zhao Wuji asked curiously, "Weren't you in the library of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy?"

Chen Hong smiled slightly: "Yes, but I've basically emptied the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy's library. Why don't I come out and take a look at this ancient city?"

"You've finished reading them?!" Zhao Wuji stared at Chen Hong in disbelief, "You've only been at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy for less than five days! And you've already read through their entire library?!"

Chen Hong shook his head and said softly, "To be precise, it was only three days. I spent some time afterward organizing the complicated content."

The Heaven Dou Royal Academy has a large collection of books, but very little of it contains useful information. Chen Hong reads very quickly. Martial Soul Psychic Power is a more advanced form of spiritual power. It is an invisible tentacle of Chen Hong's perception. As long as his spiritual power is strong enough, Chen Hong can use Psychic Power to collect various information within a certain range at the same time.

The library at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy broadened Chen Hong's understanding of the history of Soul Masters from a macro-historical perspective, giving him a more comprehensive understanding of all related information such as the bloodline, martial soul, soul power, soul skills, and soul rings of Soul Masters.

Zhao Wuji looked shocked: "."

Flander remained silent, watching Chen Hong's deep, resonant aura, before finally speaking, "Did you need something from us?"

Flander didn't think Chen Hong was the kind of person who would wander around aimlessly, so he assumed that Chen Hong must have something to ask them when he came to see them.

Flander and Zhao Wuji came to Tiandou City on their own. Their purpose was simple: firstly, Flander knew that Yu Xiaogang wanted to find Liu Erlong, so he couldn't help but want to follow them to see what was going on; secondly, they wanted to secretly protect the safety of the Technology Chamber of Commerce's convoy.

Since the last time Chen Hong and Ning Lu went to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, their caravan was attacked. The Soul Masters whose interests were closely related to Chen Hong now did not want anything to happen to Chen Hong and the others. Therefore, Zhao Wuji and Flander acted as a covert force, following the Tech Chamber of Commerce.

Chen Hong naturally understood Zhao Wuji and Flander's thoughts, which is why he smiled and approached them.

When the Technology Chamber of Commerce invested in Shrek Academy, Chen Hong's initial plan was to include Shrek Academy's advanced Soul Master combat power within the Technology Chamber of Commerce's sphere of influence. This way, outsiders would unconsciously include Shrek Academy's group of Soul Emperors and Soul Saints when examining the Technology Chamber of Commerce.

Although the Technology Chamber of Commerce could recruit some wandering Soul Masters, it could not attract high-level Soul Masters like Soul Emperors and Soul Saints. Therefore, temporarily bringing Shrek Academy under the sphere of influence of the Technology Chamber of Commerce was the best choice for the weak Technology Chamber of Commerce at that time.

Chen Hong looked at Zhao Wuji and the other two, feeling quite emotional.

The last time I went out, I was escorted by two Soul Emperors and a group of Soul Master mercenaries.

This time, however, he was accompanied by a Soul Emperor, with Soul Douluos from the Spirit Hall in the convoy, and two Soul Saints following behind. Even Tang Hao, lurking in the shadows, could be considered part of the group. The protective force, ranging from a Soul Emperor to Soul Saints, Soul Douluos, and Title Douluos, was far stronger than on his last trip.

"Nothing else, I just happened to see you on the street and thought I'd come over and say hello," Chen Hong said with a smile. This was true; he hadn't approached Flanders and the other man on his own initiative, but had simply bumped into them.

"However, I do have other matters to attend to, but they are not with you all," Chen Hong suddenly looked up at the crowd in the distance and smiled.

An elderly servant in plain clothes, his presence barely perceptible, quietly appeared from the crowd: "Honorable guest, His Highness requests your presence."
