Douluo Tang San, stop rolling

"Just call it—deliberate punch!"

After testing the soul bone skills, Xu Dongyang returned home.

He stayed at home with his mother for three months before setting off for Tiandou City. Now his soul power has reached level 54.

This was the improvement brought about by absorbing the soul bone. He gave himself a three-month vacation at home. Although his cultivation improved, it was not outstanding.

Half a month later

Xu Dongyang came to Tiandou City again. As soon as he entered the city, he hid his tracks and headed towards the Tiandou Palace.

"Who is sneaking around!"

When he arrived at the Tiandou Palace, he heard the guard's shout, and then two soldiers in silver armor stopped him.

He calmly took out the token Xue Qinghe gave him and handed it to the guard.

"I'm here to ask for an audience with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince!"

The guard took the token and looked at it, then said respectfully:

"Please wait a moment. I will go and announce it." After saying this, the guard ran into the palace.

Xu Dongyang waited for a while, then saw the guard running out of the palace, then bowed and said:

"Sir, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince invites you in."

"Lead the way." Xu Dongyang nodded in response, then followed the guard into the palace.

"The master has arrived. You can only go in by yourself." The guard said after bringing Xu Dongyang to the door of a hall.

Xu Dongyang nodded, then stepped into the hall.

As soon as I entered the door, I heard Xue Qinghe's gentle voice.

"Brother Dongyang, I haven't seen you for a long time, and you don't come to visit often. Are you dissatisfied with my poor hospitality?"

Xue Qinghe was wearing a white robe inlaid with gold thread and walked slowly towards Xu Dongyang with a faint smile on her face.

"His Royal Highness!"

Xu Dongyang bowed and saluted, then a look of haggardness appeared on his face.

"It's not that I don't want to visit, but I got into some trouble these past few months and have been hiding out."

After saying that, Xu Dongyang glanced at the other person without leaving a trace, observing the other person's expression.

Xue Qinghe's smile faded, and he frowned slightly as he said, "I wonder what kind of trouble Brother Dongyang has encountered? Perhaps I can help you out a little."

Hearing this, Xu Dongyang was secretly delighted and sighed:

"Hey! Some time ago, I injured the son and grandson of Titan, the leader of the Power Clan. I heard that the Power Clan protects its people, and I was worried that Titan would come to trouble me, so I stayed out of the spotlight."

"Titan?"

Xue Qinghe muttered to himself, and after thinking for a while, he asked uncertainly:

"A powerful Soul Douluo nicknamed Hercules?"

"That's right!" Xu Dongyang nodded slightly.

Xue Qinghe pondered for a while, frowned and looked at Xu Dongyang: "This is not easy to deal with! The Li clan is a strong sect, and the four major clans are closely related. Even if they unite, they cannot be underestimated by the top three clans."

Xu Dongyang's mind was in turmoil, trying to figure out the other party's intentions.

'What's the meaning? ’

'It seems that he neither refused nor agreed.'

'Or do I have to put up a bargaining chip to satisfy him? But what do I have?'

"Forget it! You can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a lamb. At most, I'll just take a little loss."

After thinking for a while, Xu Dongyang bowed seriously and said:

"Your Highness, if you can help me get through this, I will keep this in mind. If you need my help in the future, please feel free to ask for my help."

Xue Qinghe raised his lips when he saw this, and quickly helped Xu Dongyang up. "Although this matter is troublesome, since you ask for my help, it means you think highly of me, Xue Qinghe. I will definitely mediate this matter."

Xu Dongyang looked at the fake smile on the other person's face and complained in his heart.

"Damn it! These people who play with power are so difficult to deal with! If I didn't want to gain your trust and get close to you, would I be playing this trick with you?"

But he said gratefully: "Thank you, Your Highness."

"You and I are brothers, there's no need to be so formal."

Xue Qinghe was in a very good mood. In his opinion, the Li clan was a subsidiary sect of the Haotian Sect and could not be won over anyway. He could use it to do a favor and win over a young genius, which would be a huge profit!

The two of them talked for a while, each with their own thoughts, and then Xue Qinghe said:

"Brother, I'd better resolve your issue as soon as possible. You can stay in my house for the time being. I believe no one dares to cause trouble in my territory."

As he said that, he called the housekeeper to take Xu Dongyang to choose a room.

"That's annoying!"

Xu Dongyang watched the other person leave.

Chapter 72 Killing three birds with one stone

On the second day, Xue Qinghe took Xu Dongyang to the Li clan’s territory.

On the other side, in the meeting hall of the Li clan.

"Haven't you found the bastard who hurt my son and grandson yet?"

An old man with white hair and beard, whose hair stood up on his head like steel needles, sat at the head of the hall and looked at the young people below and asked.

The old man had a burly figure like a mountain, with deep eyes. Sitting in the first seat, he gave people a sense of majesty without even being angry.

Several young men below wiped the sweat from their foreheads, and one of them spoke tremblingly:

"Clan leader, we have searched the entire Tiandou City. The young man should have left Tiandou City. Even in the nearby cities, we can't find any trace of him."

The old man leaned slightly to the side, resting his right hand on the armrest of the seat, kneading his brows with his large, rough palm, and said in a low voice:

"Forget it, you guys go down first and then continue looking for it."

After saying this, the young men felt relieved and hurriedly left the hall.

Only the old man was left sitting alone in the hall, thinking quietly.

"Report!"

Not long after, a young man crawled into the hall, shouting.

The old man frowned slightly, looked at the young man below and shouted angrily:

"Why are you so flustered? You are bringing shame to our Li clan!"

Haha~ Haha~

The young man took a few breaths before he quickly said, "Chief, I found it! I found the young man you were looking for!"

"What?! Where is he?"

The old man slammed the armrest of the chair with both hands, stood up quickly, and rushed to the young man to ask.

Looking at Titan's wide eyes and majestic aura, the young man said nervously:

"He's just outside the door. He came by himself, but he was accompanied by a man in fancy clothes and a few guards."

The old man frowned slightly and thought to himself, "It seems that the person who came here has bad intentions!" Then he walked out of the hall.

Xu Dongyang followed Xue Qinghe into the Li clan's territory, where there was a wide training ground where many shirtless men were honing their bodies.

Hum~ hum~ ha~ hey~

Some people were holding stone bells, some were punching on the spot, and some were doing squats while carrying logs.

The air was filled with the smell of male hormones and men's sweat.

Xu Dongyang glanced at Xue Qinghe next to him and found that he didn't change his expression. He thought to himself,

"How can a woman like her stand this place? And how can she act so well?"

Xue Qinghe had a blank expression on his face and looked straight ahead, but he was full of contempt in his heart.

"It's so vulgar and disgusting! They are just like those barbarians of Haotian Sect."

She knew clearly that her father died at the hands of the Haotian Sect, and she had been resentful about it for a long time!

Not long after, the two saw a burly, white-haired old man walking out of the central hall.

Xue Qinghe hurried forward to greet him upon seeing this, "Qinghe greets the Titan Chief!"

The old man glanced at Xu Dongyang beside him, then looked at him and said softly, "It turns out to be His Royal Highness the Crown Prince. Please come in!"

After saying that, he turned around and led the way into the hall. Although he wanted to cause trouble for Xu Dongyang, the eldest prince was present, so he still had to observe the proper etiquette.

Ever since the Haotian Sect went into seclusion, the four major clans have been suppressed by the Spirit Hall, and the Li Clan moved to Tiandou City. To have its current size, it naturally cannot be achieved without the secret support of the Tiandou royal family.

Several people walked into the hall. Tai Tan sat in the first seat, Xue Qinghe sat on his right, and Xu Dongyang stood behind Xue Qinghe.

He was well aware that he was not a guest of the Calculation Power Clan, and if he sat down directly, it would be somewhat provocative.

The Titan in the first position looked at Xue Qinghe and asked, "I wonder why His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has come here?"

Xue Qinghe smiled elegantly, "I heard that my little brother has some conflicts with the Li clan, and I came here specifically to mediate."

Titan frowned slightly and said in a somewhat stiff tone:

“This guy injured my son and grandson. Although they were the first to start the fight, he was too ruthless.

My son Tainuo's sternum was shattered and his lungs were injured. He might have a hidden disease. My grandson Tailong is in even worse condition. His meridians have atrophied for no apparent reason. Without a magic medicine, I'm afraid he will never be able to break through to the Soul King level in this lifetime."

"If I don't express my opinion, won't people think that my clan can be bullied?"

As he said this, Titan's sharp eyes swept towards Xu Dongyang, and an invisible power surged towards him.

Xu Dongyang's eyes fixed, his whole body tensed, resisting the opponent's aura, the atmosphere in the field suddenly became oppressive. The air seemed to freeze.

Xue Qinghe stood up and said, "The Tiandou royal family has a collection of many natural treasures, which should be enough to save the two of them. I hope Senior Tai Tan can give me some face and let this matter go. How about that?"

Seeing that Xue Qinghe was determined to protect Xu Dongyang, Tai Tan's face became gloomy, and he thought to himself,

'Now the family still needs the support of the Tiandou royal family, so it is not appropriate to offend them. This is related to the interests of the family, so let's put aside personal grudges!'

Tai Tan sighed softly, "If you can cure my son and grandson, I can let this matter go for now."

Xue Qinghe smiled, "Senior Tai Tan is a man of his word. I happened to bring some supplements with me this time, which may help your son and grandson's injuries."

After the two of them politely declined, Xue Qinghe took Xu Dongyang away from the Li clan's territory.

"cough~cough~"

After the two left, Taino walked out from the darkness of the hall, stroking his chest with his right hand and coughing from time to time.

"What are you doing here?" Titan asked with a frown.

"Father, are you just going to let that kid go?" Taino had a trace of unwillingness on his face.

Tai Tan lectured him angrily, "What else could it be? You two were the ones who were not in the right and started the fight, and you got beaten up like this. If you don't feel ashamed, then I do!"

Taino's face turned red, and he said weakly, "I didn't know that boy was so powerful, and I'm not someone who can't stand losing. It's just that Tailong was injured in the foundation, and I just can't swallow this breath!"

Tai Tan waved his hands helplessly and said, "Let's put this matter aside for now. The family is the most important thing."

Seeing his father's decision, Taino had no choice but to accept his fate and responded:

"Yes!"

On the streets of Tiandou City, in Xue Qinghe's car.

Xu Dongyang looked at Xue Qinghe standing beside him and thanked him, "Thank you, Brother Xue, for your help this time."

"Brother Dongyang, you're welcome." Xue Qinghe waved his hand.

Xu Dongyang hesitated for a while and spoke again:

"I don't know how to repay your kindness, Your Highness. I have some news that may be useful to Your Highness."

"I wonder what the news is?" Xue Qinghe asked doubtfully.
