Douluo Continent: Twin Golden and Silver Dragons Shock Bibi Dong

Xuan Hao sighed and turned his gaze to Na'er, who was eating obediently beside him. "Na'er is the same."

"what?"

Na'er, who was struggling with a giant chicken leg, was suddenly called upon. She looked up, somewhat bewildered, with sauce still on her lips, and asked, "Brother?"

"Brother will protect me," Na'er blinked her big eyes and said innocently. "Brother said that as long as you're here, no one can bully me."

"It's possible now, but not necessarily in the future."

Xuan Hao took out a tissue and gently wiped her mouth, his movements gentle, but his tone was somewhat serious:

"Na'er, you must remember. Unexpected events can happen at any time, and misfortune can strike at any moment."

"Maybe one day I'll be struck by lightning when I go out, or I'll run into an enemy I can't beat and die."

"What will you do if I'm no longer here?"

The chicken leg in Na'er's hand fell onto the plate with a "thud".

Her face turned deathly pale instantly, tears welled up in her eyes, and she gripped Xuan Hao's sleeve tightly with her small hands, her voice trembling:

"Brother...where are you going? Don't you want Na'er anymore?"

"Silly boy, your brother didn't say he was leaving, he was just using an analogy."

Xuan Hao gently rubbed her head and said softly, "In this world, no one is indispensable to anyone else, nor can anyone be indispensable to anyone else."

"The road ahead is ultimately one you have to walk yourself."

……

"Boom boom boom!"

A heavy knocking broke the silence of the room.

"I'll go open the door!"

Na'er jumped off the sofa, ran to the door, and tiptoed to open it.

Outside the door stood a group of important figures with solemn expressions and menacing demeanor.

Leading the group was Poison Douluo Dugu Bo, dressed in a green robe. Behind him were Prince Xue Xing, Ning Fengzhi, Crown Prince Xue Qinghe, and Sword Douluo Chen Xin.

They had already prepared for the worst, and even had prepared their negotiating arguments and the means to take action.

However, the moment the door opened, everyone was stunned.

There was no tense atmosphere in the room as one might have imagined, nor was there any tragic scene of Dugu Yan being bound hand and foot, crying and begging for help.

On the contrary, the art style... is a bit strange.

Xuan Hao was lying on the thick Persian carpet like a big shot, while behind him, Dugu Yan, who should have been the "victim," was kneeling on the ground, looking unwilling but still obediently massaging Xuan Hao's shoulders.

After opening the door, Na'er skipped back, took off her shoes, and jumped directly onto Xuan Hao's back, stomping on his back while giggling.

The scene was so heartwarming, it looked like three siblings playing together.

"..."

The people at the door froze instantly.

Dugu Bo rubbed his eyes, even wondering if he was hallucinating from worrying too much.

"Yanyan?!"

Dugu Yan paused in her movements, looked up, and saw the group of important figures at the door. A hint of panic flashed in her eyes, but she quickly followed Xuan Hao's script and put on a puzzled expression:

"Grandpa? What brings you here?"

"This……"

Dugu Bo was stunned by this rhetorical question. He pointed at Dugu Yan, then at Xuan Hao, and stammered:

"No...didn't you say you were kidnapped by this kid?"

"Kidnapping?" Dugu Yan rolled her eyes, pointing at Xuan Hao who was lying on the ground. "Him? Kidnapping me?"

"Grandpa, don't you even know how old he is? Besides, didn't we leave a message when we left the academy? We said we were at the Tiandou Royal Hotel. What kind of kidnapper would announce their identity after abducting someone? And stay at a hotel right under the nose of the royal family? Is that kidnapping or courting death?"

"Then... then what are you doing?" Dugu Bo pointed to the shoulder massage he had just performed, his tone slightly unsteady.

"Oh, a bet's a bet, I guess." Dugu Yan pouted, looking like she couldn't accept defeat. "I sparred with him this afternoon and lost. According to the bet, I have to be his... cough, babysitter for one night."

"Anyway, it's nothing serious, so I'll accept my loss."

Dugu Bo: "..."

Prince Xuexing: "..."

Ning Fengzhi: "..."

Everyone felt like their brains weren't working properly.

Especially Prince Xuexing, who told Dugu Bo with absolute certainty that his granddaughter had been kidnapped. Now, how are they going to handle this situation?

"Cough cough."

Ning Fengzhi, being a shrewd man, was caught off guard by this sudden turn of events, but he quickly recovered, coughing twice in an attempt to break the awkward atmosphere:

"It seems... it really was a misunderstanding."

"We also received news that extremely dangerous criminals had infiltrated the hotel. We were worried about everyone's safety, especially about Miss Dugu, so we joined forces with the royal family and rushed over overnight to check the situation."

"A villain?" Xuan Hao sat up abruptly, pulled Na'er into his arms, and looked at Ning Fengzhi with a half-smile:

"The villain that Sect Leader Ning mentioned... could it be me?"

"This..." Ning Fengzhi was speechless. All the words of comfort and negotiation he had prepared were now stuck in his throat.

The parties involved have already said everything is fine, so what can you say? Say, "No, you're the kidnapper, hand over the hostage immediately?"

Isn't that just plain crazy?

"How could that be?" Xue Qinghe stepped forward at the right moment, with a gentle smile on his face. "We are worried about the young brother's safety. After all, Tiandou City is a mixed bag, and it would be bad if some ignorant fools offended you."

"Oh, I see." Xuan Hao nodded, looking as if he had just realized something. "Then thank you all for your kindness. But... wasn't blocking the door enough this morning? To bring so many people to show concern for me so late at night, I'm really flattered."

These words were spoken in a sarcastic tone, but the people present were all shrewd and could naturally hear the sarcasm in them.

"Um... Yan Yan, are you sure you weren't threatened?" Dugu Bo was still a little worried, looking at Dugu Yan with suspicion. "If this kid dares to threaten you, just say so! With Grandpa here, no one can touch you!"

"Oh, Grandpa!"

Dugu Yan stamped her foot and said impatiently, "I already said I'm willing to accept the consequences of my bet! Why don't you believe me? Besides, look how young he is, what can he possibly threaten me with?"

"Alright, alright, since everything's alright, you should take your people and leave now. It's so noisy late at night."

"Yanyan." Dugu Bo stepped forward with a stern face. "Since everything's alright, come back with Grandpa. What kind of behavior is it to be out here so late at night?"

"No, what's wrong with it so late at night? Could he possibly be plotting something against me?" Dugu Yan said speechlessly.

"And even if he had those thoughts, what could he possibly do?"

"You've spit on me?"

"???"

Xuan Hao was completely dumbfounded.

No, what kind of inappropriate and offensive language is this?

Chapter 47 Dugu Bo: The avalanche was actually in

……

As night deepened, the noise subsided.

With the "misunderstanding" cleared up, this sensational "kidnapping case" that rocked Tiandou City finally came to an end as a farce.

Although Ning Fengzhi and Xue Qinghe still had many doubts, especially about Xuan Hao's identity and purpose, they were deterred by Dugu Yan's "testimony" and Xuan Hao's unyielding attitude, which made them ready to overturn the table at any time. After exchanging a few polite words, they left in a hurry.

As for Prince Xuexing, seeing that his biggest backer had left, he could only slink away from the Royal Knights surrounding the hotel, filled with resentment and unwillingness.

The hotel, which had been packed with people, quickly returned to tranquility.

……

In Tiandou City, there is a secluded mansion.

This is the private villa of Poison Douluo Dugu Bo.

"Go ahead."

Dugu Bo dismissed the servants and sat in the grand chair. "What exactly happened? Don't try to fool me with those 'winner takes all' nonsense. I may be old, but I'm not senile yet."

"You're my granddaughter, don't I know your temper? You would massage the shoulders and back of an eight or nine-year-old kid? Even if you lost the bet, with your personality, you would have made a scene long ago, how could you be so calm?"

Dugu Yan sat opposite, holding a cup of hot tea, and remained silent for a long time.

"Grandpa, if it weren't Xuanhao today, what would have happened to us if it had been someone else?"

"What will happen next?" Dugu Bo sneered. "I am a titled Douluo, who dares to do anything to me?"

"Yes, no one dares to do anything to you. But..." Dugu Yan put down her teacup, "Today, you almost fought with Xuan Hao to stand up for Xue Beng. If Xuan Hao hadn't been so confident, wouldn't an ordinary person have been crippled by you today?"

"But if... Xuan Hao really has a stronger force behind him than you, what would be the consequences if this fight broke out today?"

Dugu Bo frowned: "Since I dare to take action, I am naturally not afraid of the consequences."

"Then do you know why the royal family mobilized the Imperial Guards in such a grand manner?" Dugu Yan asked.

"Xuanhao told me that the royal family did this not to save me, nor to capture Xuanhao. They were putting on an act for you! To make you think the royal family is loyal, so you'll be willing to risk your life for them!"

"And if a real fight breaks out, the royal family will definitely hide in the back and let you fight alone! If you win, it will be because of the royal family's good leadership; if you lose... or even die, it will be because of your personal grudges, and it will have nothing to do with the royal family!"

"Bullshit!!" Dugu Bo slammed his fist on the table and roared, "This kid is trying to sow discord! The royal family may sometimes act unethically, but they're not shameless enough to do this!"

"Really not?" Dugu Yan looked directly into Dugu Bo's eyes. "Grandpa, think about it carefully. Xue Beng was beaten up in the street, so why didn't Prince Xue Xing go to someone else or the Royal Knights? Why did he have to travel all the way to Sunset Forest to ask you to come out?"

"How old is Xuan Hao? Is it really necessary to call upon a Title Douluo just to bully a child?"

“This…” Dugu Bo was speechless.

"Because they know this is a tricky matter! The other party is not someone to be trifled with!"

Dugu Yan's voice rose a few decibels, "They don't want to risk their own people, so they pushed you out! If they win, the royal family will regain face; if they lose, it's because Poison Douluo is less skilled!"
