Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul, Luo Sanpao, Allows Me to Defy Fate

Yu Xiaogang turned his head and looked directly at Lin Wan'er.

"I will spare no expense for this."

Lin Wan'er was taken aback.

Yu Xiaogang looked at her for a long time before speaking again.

"Including my own life."

Lin Wan'er's lips parted slightly, but she couldn't speak for a long time.

Just then, a messenger disciple hurriedly ran up the cliff.

"Second Young Master! The Sect Master has ordered you to immediately proceed to the main hall on the main peak for a meeting!" the disciple announced loudly.

Yu Xiaogang nodded.

He turned to Lin Wan'er and said, "Let's go, come with me."

The two walked along the mountain path toward the main peak.

Inside the main hall.

Yu Yuanzhen sat high on his throne. Several wounded elders stood in the hall, the atmosphere extremely oppressive. The constant reports of defeats from the front lines made it hard for everyone to breathe.

Yu Xiaogang strode into the main hall. Lin Wan'er followed behind him.

Yu Yuanzhen was listening to the elder's report when he looked up and saw Yu Xiaogang walk in. His gaze immediately fixed on Yu Xiaogang's striking white hair.

The elders in the main hall also turned their heads, their faces showing astonishment.

Yu Yuanzhen stood up, quickly walked down the steps, and came to Yu Xiaogang. This usually dignified and imposing Super Douluo now showed heartache in his eyes.

He raised his hand, wanting to touch Yu Xiaogang's white hair, but his hand ended up on Yu Xiaogang's shoulder.

"Why are you doing this to yourself?" Yu Yuanzhen sighed.

As a titled Douluo, Yu Yuanzhen immediately saw through Yu Xiaogang's condition. The depletion of lifespan caused by forcibly raising his cultivation level was something he could not hide from his eyes.

Yu Xiaogang remained calm.

"For the sake of the sect, I have no other choice."

Yu Yuanzhen patted Yu Xiaogang's shoulder with a slight pressure. In this desperate situation, the father finally expressed his concern for his second son, whom he had always neglected.

“You’ve done a great job. These days, you’ve handled logistics and defense flawlessly.”

Yu Xiaogang's heart skipped a beat when he heard those words.

Yu Yuanzhen withdrew his hand, his gaze passing over Yu Xiaogang and looking at Lin Wan'er behind him.

Lin Wan'er stood there quietly, her appearance delicate and her temperament gentle.

Yu Yuanzhen looked at Lin Wan'er with eyes full of admiration and optimism.

"Miss Wan'er," Yu Yuanzhen called out.

Lin Wan'er quickly stepped forward and curtsied, saying, "Sect Master."

Yu Yuanzhen nodded and said gently, "These past few days, Xiao Gang's health has been greatly improved thanks to your care. Xiao Gang is stubborn and often doesn't take care of himself. With you by his side, I feel very reassured."

Yu Yuanzhen looked around at the elders and continued, "Once we get through this calamity that will destroy our sect, I will personally arrange for you to marry into our family and become Xiao Gang's wife."

Upon hearing this, the hall fell silent for a moment.

Lin Wan'er blushed instantly, her hands twisting together, unsure how to answer. She lowered her head, her face full of shyness.

Yu Xiaogang stood to the side, not denying it. He accepted Yu Yuanzhen's arrangement in silence.

Chapter 461 Objective: Supporting Yu Xiaoheng

Upon seeing this, the elders finally managed a slight smile on their somber faces.

For days, the Blue Lightning Sect has been besieged by various forces, losing territory and its disciples in battle. The oppressive atmosphere is maddening. Today, the sect leader's public promise of marriage to the second young master was like a glimmer of humanity injected into the Blue Lightning Sect, which was on the verge of destruction. This glimmer briefly illuminated the hearts of those around.

An elder stroked his beard and said, "The sect leader is right. Once we defeat the enemy, our Blue Lightning Sect will definitely hold a grand banquet to celebrate this joyous occasion."

The atmosphere in the main hall eased considerably.

Yu Yuanzhen gestured for everyone to be quiet.

He refocused his attention on the matter at hand. Yu Yuanzhen took Yu Xiaogang's arm and led him to the giant sand table in the center of the hall.

Upon seeing this, Yu Xiaogang immediately turned around and waved to Lin Wan'er.

"Wan'er, come and listen with us," Yu Xiaogang suggested.

The elders in the main hall frowned.

"Second Young Master, what we need to discuss next is a secret operation of the sect. Although Miss Wan'er is the future young mistress, she has not cultivated and is powerless. It may not be appropriate for her to participate in this matter," an elder in charge of punishments reminded him.

In the minds of all the Blue Lightning Sect disciples, Lin Wan'er had almost never made a move. Everyone speculated that she had extremely poor talent and was incapable of cultivation.

Yu Xiaogang shook his head.

He explained to Yu Yuanzhen and the elders, "Father, elders, you are unaware of this. Wan'er actually possesses cultivation."

The elders looked surprised.

Yu Xiaogang continued, "Although I haven't inquired about her specific strength in detail, I estimate it's not particularly strong. But she has an extremely rare and special talent."

"Wan'er is extremely sensitive to fluctuations in soul power in the outside world. Whether it is an enemy ambush or a soul skill bursting out from afar, she can detect it in advance."

Yu Xiaogang pointed to the dense enemy markings around the sand table.

"We're going to carry out a secret mission this time, which means we'll have to sneak out of Thunder Mountain. The outside is full of spies from the Spirit Hall and various sects. Taking Wan'er with us will help us avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble, making our actions much easier."

After listening, Yu Yuanzhen's gaze lingered on Lin Wan'er for a moment.

“In that case, let her come with you.” Yu Yuanzhen nodded in agreement.

Yu Yuanzhen picked up a baton from the sand table and pointed it at the location of Sunset Forest.

"Xiao Gang, take a group of elites and leave Thunder Mountain. Go to Sunset Forest and meet up with Xiao Heng."

Upon hearing Yu Xiaoheng's name, Yu Xiaogang's expression remained unchanged.

"Xiao Heng sent a message half an hour ago."

"He is still alive, right here."

Yu Yuanzhen pointed to the Sunset Forest area on the sand table.

"He is wanted by the Spirit Hall. Qian Daoliu and his son, as well as people from the four lower sects, are looking for him. There are also six Title Douluos patrolling the outer perimeter. He used such a killing move to kill the Storm Hound and the Cardinal, which greatly exhausted him. He must have been injured."

"He will need a lot of medicinal herbs to heal his wounds and fight outside."

Yu Yuanzhen pointed his baton at a mark in the center of the Sunset Forest on the sand table.

"The Eye of Ice and Fire".

Yu Xiaogang looked at the mark.

"The spiritual energy there is extremely rich, making it a rare treasure trove in the world. Countless rare and exotic plants grow there."

"Back then, Xiao Heng led our Blue Lightning Sect to discover that place first and sent people to guard it. But later, Tang Wei of the Haotian Sect led people to forcibly take it over and drove our people out. The Haotian Sect treated that place as their own medicine garden."

Yu Yuanzhen tapped the edge of the sand table with his baton.

“A few days ago, Xiao Heng went to Sunset Forest. He appeared directly at the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well and killed all the disciples of Haotian Sect who were stationed there.”

"Tang Wei is currently seriously injured, and the Haotian Sect is too busy to send anyone to take over again."

"That place is now a no-man's land. The situation is extremely chaotic. People from the Spirit Hall, as well as spies from other sects, are all rushing there, searching the mountains everywhere."

Yu Yuanzhen put away his baton.

"Xiao Heng may not stay there."

"But on your way to Sunset Forest, you must stop by and take a look. If he is there, escort him to safety immediately."

Yu Xiaogang nodded.

"I understand."

His gaze lingered on the location of the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire. His mind began to race.

The medicinal power of the Bloodthirsty Dragon Sunflower was extremely violent. He forcibly swallowed three plants, leaving his internal organs riddled with holes and his lifespan severely depleted. Although he was not afraid of death, he did not want to die so soon.

There are countless immortal herbs inside the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire.

If we could find a gentle, nourishing herb in there, it might be able to neutralize and suppress the rampant medicinal power within our bodies.

Once the backlash is suppressed, his level 49 cultivation will be completely stabilized, and he may even be able to advance further and break through to the Soul King level.

For him, this is the current opportunity to survive and gain greater strength.

"Go and prepare," Yu Yuanzhen said.

"Yes."

Yu Xiaogang turned and left the main hall.

Lin Wan'er followed closely behind him.

After a while, Yu Yuanzhen came to his room in person, talked with him for a while, and gave him a storage soul tool.

……

Half an hour later.

Night fell.

Before the secret passage in the back mountain of Blue Lightning.

Yu Xiaogang changed into a black night outfit. His full head of white hair was tightly wrapped in a black cloth.

Lin Wan'er also changed into a tight-fitting outfit and stood next to Yu Xiaogang.

Before them stood fifty elite soul masters from the Blue Lightning Sect. All of them possessed cultivation levels of Soul King or higher. This was the Blue Lightning Sect's current pool of resources.

The three elders at the Soul Saint level were responsible for escorting them through the siege.

Outside Thunder Mountain, the area was completely surrounded by various powerful forces.

The Spirit Hall's elite troops, assassins from the Slaughtering Heaven Organization, and a combined force from the Lower Four Sects and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. Flames soared into the sky below the mountain.
