Douluo's Spirit Pearl Divine Sword

But now, she couldn't sense any tyranny in Tianlin at all. She had even prepared a series of lessons in advance to help Tianlin suppress his evil aura.

“Madam Yue, I’ve come to apologize and withdraw from the course,” Tianlin said apologetically. “During my two years of training, I have been able to fully control my Qi and no longer need to continue my studies here.”

"I can tell." Tang Yuehua nodded with a smile. She wasn't angry at all. In terms of self-cultivation, she was probably one of the best in the entire Douluo Continent.

"This is a letter from Uncle Ning to you. There are some important things to tell you in it!" Tianlin's purpose in coming here was actually to hand over this letter under the guise of an apology.

This letter was written by Ning Fengzhi himself, and it contained very important information. A small part of it was even related to the Soul Hunting Operation. The Spirit Hall wanted to integrate all the sects in the world, and it would never allow the Clear Sky Sect, the former number one sect in the world, to remain aloof under the guise of seclusion.

Tang Yuehua took the letter and read it. It was indeed very important intelligence, not something she could easily decide. However, she remained calm and said without showing any emotion, "I received the letter. Please thank Sect Leader Ning for me later."

"Today is my Yuexuan's performance day. Although you're not coming here for classes anymore, you can still try listening to the performance. It's very beneficial for improving your state of mind. And today I'm going to go on stage myself."

"Then I'll accept your invitation!" Tianlin was already interested in Tang Yuehua's invitation, so he and Oslo found a seat and sat down to wait for the performance to begin.

His real purpose was to see how Tang Yuehua planned to pass the message to Tang Xiao. She couldn't possibly not tell her older brother such important information.

But over the years, neither the Heavenly Dou Royal Family nor the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School could find the Clear Sky School through her. She must have an extremely secretive means of communication. It couldn't be as simple as just handing the letter over to someone to take back. Otherwise, if someone were following her, the Clear Sky School would have been exposed long ago.

As the performance time drew near, Yuexuan was soon filled with nobles of all ranks, and Tianlin even saw Prince Xuexing among them.

His eyes never left Tang Yuehua's graceful body; he had clearly been coveting her for a long time.

"That Prince Xuexing is still up to no good. I heard he once asked Lady Yue for her hand in marriage, but she refused. If Lady Yue hadn't been unaware of his powerful background, given that old lecher's personality, he might have forced himself on her!" Oslo whispered in Tianlin's ear.

"That's because Lady Yue is my father's close friend of many years. Even my uncle would never dare to force her." Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded behind the two of them.

Tianlin couldn't help but stand up and say, "Brother Xue, what brings you here?"

The newcomer was Xue Qinghe, who was staring intently at Tianlin, his gaze filled with a mixture of nostalgia and anger.

"Why am I here? Of course, I'm here to see you. Tell me, where did you go two years ago when you left without saying goodbye? I've gone to look for your teacher and your master, but they only said you went to train, but they won't tell me where you are!"

He came specifically for Tianlin. Tianlin was surprised by his current control over Tiandou City. He had only been in the city for a short time, yet Tianlin had already learned of his arrival and come to see him.

In just two years, his power seems to have increased considerably.

"Brother Xue, don't be angry. I'll explain everything to you later. The performance is about to start," Tianlin said awkwardly.

He could easily imagine how long Xue Qinghe had searched for him, how angry she had been, and how worried she had been.

"Alright, come back to the East Palace with me later and explain everything clearly!" Xue Qinghe was afraid that Tianlin would run away again, so she didn't intend to leave and just sat down next to Tianlin.

"Well, Your Highness, that's not what I meant. His Highness the Prince is just a bit of a womanizer." Oslo looked at Xue Qinghe with some fear. To speak ill of his own uncle in front of the Crown Prince and be caught red-handed was a serious crime.

“Oslo, you don’t need to be so afraid. Do you think I don’t know my uncle’s personality? I won’t hold it against you for Xiaotian’s sake, but remember, loose lips sink ships. If someone hears you, I won’t be able to save you,” Xue Qinghe warned.

Upon hearing this, Oslo breathed a sigh of relief. "Yes, yes, thank you, Your Highness!"

Chapter 251 The Noble Circular Telegraph Communication Method

Just as Tianlin and Xue Qinghe were catching up, a servant whispered something in Prince Xuexing's ear, probably informing him of Xue Qinghe's arrival.

Prince Xuexing turned his head and glanced in this direction. When he noticed Tianlin, who had disappeared for two years, the hostility in his eyes was undisguised.

In his mind, Tianlin was a staunch supporter of Xue Qinghe, so it was not surprising that he was hostile to Tianlin, given his support for Xue Beng.

But the problem is that he made it too obvious. Shouldn't he have kept a low profile like Avalanche at this point?

It seems that the Heaven Dou Empire has undergone changes in recent years that differ from the original story.

Xue Qinghe also noticed Prince Xuexing's hostility towards Tianlin. He frowned. The hostility towards Tianlin angered him more than the hostility towards himself.

At this moment, a melodious and gentle harp sound began to resound throughout the Moon Pavilion, and the anger that had just risen in both Prince Xue Xing and Xue Qinghe vanished instantly.

Tang Yuehua had already begun playing in the center of the Moon Pavilion, while other beautiful noble girls, and even Princess Xueke, were accompanying her.

It is said to be the most beautiful music in the Heavenly Dou Empire, bringing peace to the mind.

Tianlin had to admit that if he didn't have the Holy Spirit Pearl, coming here for baptism would have helped him quickly master the killing intent within his body.

Tianlin could clearly sense a gentle wave emanating from Tang Yuehua, elegant and natural, as if it could soothe all resentment and sorrow in the world.

This is Tang Yuehua's innate domain, the Noble Circle, which serves no purpose other than to soothe people's hearts.

"Demon-Suppressing Domain!"

Tianlin activated a very small demon-suppressing domain around his body to protect himself from the influence of the noble ring.

Because this noble circle unconsciously immerses people in it, even someone as strong as Xue Qinghe, whose true combat power is already comparable to a titled Douluo, still closed his eyes and enjoyed the beautiful music.

"Brother Tianmeng, I suspect that Tang Yuehua's method of transmitting messages is related to her innate domain. Can you use your spiritual power to sense if there's anything unusual here?"

This is actually the best time to pass on the message, because Tang Yuehua has just obtained the intelligence, and she has not left Tianlin's sight until now. Under normal circumstances, no one would think that she has had the opportunity to pass on the message during this period, so they ignore the present and only focus on what she will do next.

In other words, once a focal point is established in a field of vision, blind spots naturally appear as well.

"Leave it to me, brother!" Tianmeng Ice Silkworm closed her eyes and sensed it.

No matter how wondrous this noble ring may be, it is nothing more than a method that works on the mind. Under the million-year mental power of the Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworm, it has nowhere to hide.

"Xiao Tian, ​​the second person from the left in the third row of the audience, receives a different kind of mental fluctuation than the others. The others receive a continuous rhythmic flow, but his is intermittent, like the sound of a drum, very regular."

"Intermittent, yet very regular? I feel like I've seen this pattern somewhere before." Tianlin racked his brains, trying to recall, "That's right, it's telegrams,"

He finally remembered—wasn't this method just like modern telegraphy? Tang Yuehua's aristocratic ring couldn't transmit sound directly through her soul, but as long as the opponent didn't resist, interrupting the music being played intermittently was no problem.

In this way, the recipient only needs to remember the rhythm. The Haotian Sect should have a similar codebook. Tang Yuehua doesn't need to hand the letter directly to anyone; the Haotian Sect can access the information on their own.

"Impressive methods indeed. No wonder we haven't been able to find the Haotian Sect through you all these years," Tianlin thought to himself.

Tang Yuehua's intelligence is directly proportional to the strength of the Haotian Twin Stars. If what happened back then hadn't happened, and the three siblings had cooperated sincerely, the development of the Haotian Sect would probably have far surpassed that of the current Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

After all, who could discover such a method? Those spies didn't know when Tang Yuehua passed on the intelligence or to whom.

Even though he was always paying attention to her, under the influence of the noble ring, his mind was still immersed in the music.

After the song ended, Tang Yuehua stood up and gracefully bowed to the audience to express her gratitude to all the guests.

The audience erupted in applause. Her musical talent was so extraordinary that everyone forgot about time and their own identities, simply enjoying the performance.

Tianlin's lips moved slightly as he secretly transmitted his voice to Oslo, who was clapping wildly.

Oslo was still shouting loudly that Lady Yue was the best and Princess Xueke was the best. When he heard Tianlin's voice transmission, he first looked over in confusion, and then showed a rare serious expression. He nodded to Tianlin and used his skillful movement to weave through the crowd and disappear without a trace.

"Hmm?" Others might not notice Tianlin's subtle movements, but Xue Qinghe could not hide them. "What did Xiaotian secretly transmit to that Oslo? I can't even tell him."

He was a little angry and jealous. Why did she keep things from him when she could only discuss them with Oslo? Was it because they hadn't seen each other for two years and their feelings had faded?

Xue Qinghe also moved his lips slightly and secretly sent a message to a servant, ordering him to follow Oslo closely, not to touch him, but to find out what he had been doing.

Xue Qinghe's actions did not escape Tianlin's notice. Tianlin smiled slightly; this was exactly what he wanted. It was better for Qian Renxue to investigate some things herself. Even if she didn't appear today, he would find a way to guide her later.

After the performance, Tianlin bid farewell to Tang Yuehua and left Yuexuan with Xue Qinghe. However, he couldn't go home today and was forcibly dragged back to the East Palace by Xue Qinghe.

He knew that if he didn't explain himself clearly today, he probably wouldn't be able to leave.

Left with no other choice, Tianlin had to tell Xue Qinghe about his journey to the City of Slaughter in a condensed and edited manner. For example, he couldn't tell Xue Qinghe about Hu Liena being controlled by him and obtaining the inheritance of the Asura God. But the Killing God Domain didn't matter, since Tang Hao had it and her mother had it too. To her, it was far inferior to her Angel Domain.

"So that's how it is. You went to the City of Slaughter. No wonder every time I asked my teacher, he hesitated to speak. Your Rongrong and your little brother Gu Ran also kept saying they didn't know where you went."

“Brother Xue, only my master and Uncle Ning know about this. Don’t blame them. You know how dangerous the Killing Capital is. They were just afraid you would worry.” Tianlin had learned a lot of polite words from Ning Fengzhi and had also touched on Qian Renxue’s weakness.

Because she knew how dangerous the City of Slaughter was, and that she would not allow Tianlin to go if she knew, he had no choice but to act first and leave without saying goodbye.

Chapter 252 Changes in Heaven Dou City: The Mysterious Title Douluo

Tianlin and Xue Qinghe talked for a long time, and Tianlin told them everything that had happened in the past two years.

It's basically nine parts truth and one part falsehood, which makes it easier for people to believe.

After listening, Xue Qinghe didn't pay attention to anything else, but instead frowned and said, "You really went through the trials alongside that Hu Liena, didn't she use any tricks to deal with you along the way?"

Tianlin shook his head. "No, they were actually quite nice. Besides, if we hadn't cooperated sincerely back then, we might both have died."

"That woman is no good. Remember to stay away from her in the future," Xue Qinghe suddenly said loudly, looking very displeased.

"Brother Xue, are you very familiar with Hu Liena? How do you know she's not a good person?"

"Well, I heard that a woman who uses charm as her main fighting method, what kind of decent person could she be?" Xue Qinghe also realized that his reaction was too extreme.

Actually, she didn't dislike Hu Liena, but she was extremely jealous of her. Bibi Dong poured almost all her affection into Hu Liena, while she, her own daughter, received none of it.

Moreover, that vixen's allure is too great; she is now deeply afraid that Tianlin will also be seduced by that vixen.

"Don't worry, Brother Xue, Hu Liena and I are just using each other. We won't get close to her." Tianlin assured him confidently, but he secretly thought to himself, "I'm just controlling her. I never intended to get close to her. This isn't exactly lying, is it?"

Hearing Tianlin say this, Xue Qinghe nodded in satisfaction.

Seeing that her mood had improved, Tianlin asked about the strange sights he had seen since arriving in Tiandou City. "By the way, Brother Xue, I've noticed that Tiandou City is a bit strange. The relationship between nobles and commoners is completely different from usual. Nobles still look down on commoners, but they don't exploit them either. It's like two parallel lines, not interfering with each other."

"Also, why did Prince Xuexing suddenly show such hostility towards me just now?"

“You’re very observant. Oslo didn’t tell you about this, did he? Well, his family is just a minor noble family. How could they dare to discuss royal matters in public?” Xue Qinghe sighed. “In recent years, my father has suddenly fallen seriously ill, and his health has deteriorated day by day. Many of the affairs of the palace have gradually been transferred to the East Palace, where I handle them.”

"I have increased the constraints on Soul Masters and the noble class, which is why you see them clearly separated from the commoners. Everything was going smoothly until one day, Uncle Xuexing suddenly impeached me during the morning court session, saying that I disregarded the interests of the nobles, acted against the tide, and openly supported Xue Beng. At the same time, as if it were pre-arranged, most of the nobles turned to Xue Beng. If I hadn't cultivated some influence in the court over the years, I would probably have been overthrown by them. Now, the court is basically divided between my Eastern Palace faction and Xue Beng's faction."

"What?" Tianlin was shocked. He didn't need to consider the fact that Emperor Xueye had suddenly fallen ill; he could guess that it must have been Qian Renxue's doing. He had already learned from Hu Liena that the Soul Hunting Operation had started ahead of schedule.

But what about that avalanche? Shouldn't he continue to play the playboy? Xue Qinghe hasn't even been exposed yet, and he's already jumping out like this. Does he think he's lived too long?

"Brother Xue, if that's the case, why didn't you eliminate the root of the problem?" Tianlin asked directly. Anyway, since the last incident, Tianlin had wanted to get rid of Xue Beng for quite some time. Even if Xue Qinghe really took action, he would just applaud.

Xue Qinghe shook his head. "It's easier said than done. My younger brother is truly a hidden talent. Xiao Tian, ​​do you know what level the avalanche is right now?"

"How many?"

"He's almost level 60. In the Royal Fighting Team, apart from you, he's about the same level as everyone else."

"Approaching the Soul Emperor level? How is that possible?" Tianlin was truly incredulous this time. Although Xue Beng in the original story didn't cultivate diligently in order to save his life, his talent was not that high to begin with.

Back then, Tianlin could easily defeat him with a single hand, and at that time, he was not even level 40. How did he manage to level up nearly 20 levels in just four years?

To be honest, while this level is astonishing, a mere Quasi-Soul Emperor doesn't seem to be enough to leave Qian Renxue helpless, especially since she has two Title Douluos by her side.

At this moment, Xue Qinghe continued, "Not only that, but there was also a Title Douluo by his side, completely hidden under a black robe. I don't know who that person is, but he is extremely powerful. My men are no match for him at all."

Xue Qinghe's strongest subordinates on the surface were the three teaching committee members of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy and a general of the Imperial City Guard. The three teaching committee members were Soul Douluos, and the general was a Soul Saint. They were indeed no match for a Title Douluo.

No wonder avalanches dare to brazenly reveal their true nature.

But Tianlin knew that things were probably not that simple. Xue Qinghe had probably already sent the Serpent Spear Douluo and the Porcupine Douluo to try it out, but Xue Beng was still alive and well. That could only mean one thing: the strength of that mysterious titled Douluo was far superior to the two people in Xue Qinghe's hands.

"Oh, by the way, not only that, your 'good friend' Brother Tang has also gotten involved with Avalanche."

"Brother Tang? You mean Tang San!" Tian Lin was slightly surprised when Xue Qinghe mentioned Tang San, but he was only surprised and not at all astonished. Tang San's talent was not enough now, and he had not gone to the City of Slaughter, so he would not be favored by the sect elders. Therefore, Tang Hao would naturally have to think of other ways to return to the sect.

Besides talent and ability, influence is another factor that can represent a person's value.
