Douluo: Dragon King's Tai Chi Mystery

The thought of Leng Yulai plunging the Demon God Sword into Leng Yaozhu's body, causing her sister's soul to suffer eternal torment, made Zhao Xuanzhen unwilling to dwell on Leng Yulai's actions. He seemingly casually changed the subject:

"I had a face-to-face exchange with the Purple Dragon Douluo yesterday. I wonder how it went, Teacher?"

"Purple Dragon Douluo, there's something really strange about him..."

Leng Yaozhu turned her head, her delicate profile shimmering in the sunlight, and slowly said, "The Purple Dragon Douluo is indeed a Super Douluo, and her words subtly reveal the extraordinary strength of the hidden family behind Gu Yue."

However, the Purple Dragon Douluo's aura was unstable, and his blood and qi were fluctuating, indicating that he was seriously injured and had not yet recovered.

"The Purple Dragon Douluo is seriously injured?"

Zhao Xuanzhen was surprised. The Purple Dragon Douluo was most likely the Hell Demon Dragon King Zi Ji. How could she be seriously injured at this point in time?

Gu Yue… Tang Wulin… Golden Dragon King… Sea God…

With a thought racing through his mind, Zhao Xuanzhen gradually formed a logical chain in his head. It was clear from the performance of the Spirit Ascension Platform during the riot that Gu Yue and the other four members of Class Zero were not of one mind. While others were taking action, she was just watching the show, giving off a sense of being out of place.

In this timeline, Gu Yuena did not lose her memory and spent three years with Tang Wulin. The two Silver Dragon Kings had no feelings for him. Gu Yuena came to Donghai City simply to seize the Golden Dragon King's divine core.

Given Gu Yue's straightforward personality, upon seeing Tang Wulin, he would definitely summon the Star Dou Beasts to attack, which would inevitably arouse the divine thoughts of the God King.

Therefore, Zi Ji was likely severely injured by the God King, and even the Star Dou ferocious beasts such as Di Tian, ​​Xiong Jun, and Wan Yao Wang suffered great losses due to being caught off guard. Even the healing ability of the Emerald Swan Bi Ji could not help the ferocious beasts recover to their peak condition.

At this moment, Gu Yue is still stationed in Donghai City, indicating that the Golden Dragon King's divine core is still inside Tang Wulin's body. The Star Dou Ferocious Beast has been utterly defeated, rating 3.0.

"So the God-King only has two more opportunities to make a move?"

Zhao Xuanzhen pondered to himself that during the Spirit Ascension Platform journey in the riot period, the God King occupied Tang Wulin's body and used the Trident Spirit Imprint. The situation was more like the time of Phosphorous Fire Soul Refining, where less energy was used and it did not take up many attack opportunities.

When facing the ferocious beasts of the Star Dou Great Forest, the God King would consume a huge amount of energy, losing one of his three life-saving hairs.

That Starry Sky Beast wasn't exactly an easy win; its rating actually increased slightly...

"What are your plans for Gu Yue, teacher?"

“Gu Yue has exceptional talent and will definitely be admitted to the Spirit Pagoda,” Leng Yaozhu said. “However, I am still considering what position to assign her.”

"Not a core disciple?"

Leng Yaozhu shook her head: "Before meeting Purple Dragon Douluo, she was a core disciple of the Spirit Pagoda. After meeting Purple Dragon Douluo, I became hesitant."

The Purple Dragon Douluo wanted Gu Yue to become my disciple, but I told her I already had a direct disciple. Immediately afterward, she surprisingly offered a 100,000-year-old soul bone, just to ask me to accept Gu Yue as my disciple.

"That's quite a generous offer. Did the teacher agree?"

"Xuanzhen, remember your teacher's words: the greater the benefit, the more you must remain calm."

Leng Yaozhu said calmly, "Judging from their appearance, they seem eager to enter the core circle of the Spirit Pagoda. I'm afraid they have some ulterior motive..."

Fortunately, you defeated Gu Yue with near-total dominance, giving the Spirit Pagoda a legitimate reason to refuse to grant him a core discipleship.

Your teacher has given you a task: Gu Yue will enter the Spirit Transmission Tower as a prospective core disciple. As her sole examiner, you have the power to decide whether she can be officially recognized and thus enter the top tier of the Spirit Transmission Tower.

Regardless of Gu Yue's and that reclusive family's motives, Gu Yue's talent and background are undeniable. Subduing her would be a huge boost to your future.

"it is good."

Zhao Xuanzhen sighed that experience is indeed valuable. His becoming Leng Yaozhu's direct disciple triggered a series of butterfly effects. Gu Yue, who had been doing well, suddenly found herself unable to enter the core of the Spirit Pagoda. Zhao Xuanzhen held the power to officially recognize Gu Yue.

"Teacher, there's one more thing. I'll be going to Tiandou City in a couple of days."

"Well, I'll accompany you."

Zhao Xuanzhen pursed his lips and said softly, "Teacher, I can take Na'er with me."

The moment the words left his mouth, the world seemed to freeze for a moment, the surrounding temperature suddenly soared, and the Heavenly Phoenix Douluo rose from the beach chair, his crimson phoenix eyes fixed on his disciple, his stunningly beautiful face inexplicably crumbling, as he coldly said:

"Xuanzhen, do you mean to abandon your teacher and go to Tiandou City alone with Na'er, with no guarantee of safety, and who knows if you'll be kidnapped..."

Zhao Xuanzhen shuddered. Leng Yaozhu's posture was truly frightening, as if the two of them would appear in a secret room at any moment!

"It's not that serious..."

Zhao Xuanzhen finally understood why Han Tianyi suggested that he get out of Leng Yaozhu's sight before going to Tiandou City to see Mu Ye.

Imagine Zhao Xuanzhen going to Tiandou City with Leng Yaozhu. His body trembled, his true self no longer concealed. Mu Ye was overjoyed and warmly invited Zhao Xuanzhen to join the Body Sect. And then…

That was the end of it. Leng Yaozhu slapped Mu Ye to death and sent people to find Aruheng. The Body Sect, which had been passed down for ten thousand years, was declared extinct!

"The Federation is relatively safe. I have important business to attend to in Tiandou City... for my sake and for our future."

Moreover, people must grow up and learn to face difficulties and obstacles on their own; they cannot live forever under the protection of their elders.

Zhao Xuanzhen spoke sincerely, and it was necessary to inform Leng Yaozhu in advance, as he did not want to leave secretly and hurt his teacher who had always cared for him.

Besides, Leng Yaozhu has too many ways to track him down. Instead of exhausting herself, she might as well be frank and straightforward from the start.

This trip to Tiandou City wasn't just to see Mu Ye; Zhao Xuanzhen had other plans. He could keep it from Na'er, but not from Leng Yaozhu. Leng Yaozhu had watched him grow up, and some things that suddenly appeared out of nowhere were inexplicable.

After a long silence, Leng Yaozhu looked at her resolute disciple, sighed softly, and chose to back down:

"In the end, they've grown up and can't be kept here. You can go to Tiandou City, but you have to agree to three requests from your teacher."

First, report your safety twice a day via the soul-guided communicator.

Second, you must not agree to any unreasonable demands, such as asking you to leave me and join another faction.

Third, wear this, and you'll be safe and sound.

She handed Zhao Xuanzhen a crimson pendant, which was warm to the touch, and the cries of phoenixes echoed all around.

The phoenix pendant contains the Heavenly Phoenix True Fire, and its power in a single strike is enough to annihilate a level 95 Title Douluo. Once it is shattered, Leng Yaozhu will sense it and rush to her aid at the fastest speed.

"Thank you for your understanding, teacher."

Zhao Xuanzhen put on the phoenix pendant. Although he was protected by the Teng Snake, the phoenix pendant could put Leng Yaozhu at ease.

"Protect yourself. If the phoenix pendant breaks, return to the Spirit Pagoda obediently."

Leng Yaozhu tried to appear stern, but quickly lost her composure, saying meaningfully:

"Xuanzhen, once you go to Tiandou City, don't be fooled by other people's verbal promises..."

Trust me, teacher. I can give you more than anyone else.

"Yes, I never doubt it."

"You almost ruined my vacation mood, come here."

Leng Yaozhu beckoned to Zhao Xuanzhen and slipped a bottle into his palm. Then, she propped her chin up and lay on her side on the beach chair, combing her long, red hair with her delicate hands. Her snow-white back stretched out in the sunlight, and her waist dimples were filled with shimmering spots of light.

"Help the teacher apply some sunscreen."

"Eh?"

Zhao Xuanzhen was taken aback. The mighty Heavenly Phoenix Douluo was afraid of the sun?!

Leng Yao frowned slightly, seemingly wondering why I hadn't made a move yet.

"Sigh...this...I..."

Zhao Xuanzhen was honest, reliable, and respected his teacher, so he could only obey his master's orders. He was tasked with completing a job ten thousand times more arduous than fighting the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear.

The waist and hip curves are smooth and supple, the skin feels like it's been polished and refined. The subtle sound of sunscreen seeping in is amplified a thousand times. As your fingertips trace the grooves of the spine, sunlight breaks down into seven-colored spots, like a liquid rainbow.

Xuanzhen remained silent, only continuing to apply oil!

Chapter 21 The Communication of the Eternal East Wind, The Soaring Serpent Descends, Burning the Sky and Boiling the Sea (4K)

The beach chair still held the warmth of the sun. Zhao Xuanzhen unscrewed the cap of the sunscreen, and the sweet fragrance mixed with the scent of sea salt melted between her fingers.

A wonderful sensation of coolness and warmth meanders along the spine, causing Leng Yaozhu's long eyelashes to tremble slightly. Under the warmth of her body, the sunscreen seems to release a caramel-like aroma, mixed with the natural rose fragrance of this Heavenly Phoenix Douluo, rich, charming, and refreshing.

As a master of technique, Zhao Xuanzhen's skill in applying sunscreen is unparalleled. He applies the sunscreen with just the right amount of pressure, ensuring it is evenly distributed. Under the sunlight, Leng Yaozhu's skin glows with a dazzling luster like mother-of-pearl.

Zhao Xuanzhen let out a soft breath, looking at his masterpiece, a sense of accomplishment welled up in his heart. However, it was a real pity not to cup such a beautiful, snow-white back.

Throughout the entire process, Leng Yaozhu remained silent, her crimson phoenix eyes tightly closed, showing no outward change in emotion, seemingly quietly appreciating her disciple's exquisite technique.

"Jingle Bell--"

The ringing of the soul communication device shattered the warm and pleasant atmosphere between master and disciple. Leng Yaozhu opened her eyes, glanced at the caller ID, and a hint of annoyance flashed in her eyes.

The East Wind Through the Ages.

Despite his annoyance, Qian Gu Dong Feng was, after all, the master of the Spirit Transmission Tower, and logically, the deputy master, Leng Yao Zhu, could not ignore his communications.

As Zhao Xuanzhen pressed the answer button, he clearly heard a strong and enthusiastic male voice because Leng Yaozhu had not asked him to leave or used her soul power to block the sound.

"Yaoju, it's me."

"Is there something you need?" Leng Yaozhu asked calmly.

"I heard you went to Donghai City for vacation. Donghai City is picturesque, and its beaches are absolutely stunning. I took Zhangting there when he was a child," Qian Gu Dongfeng said with a smile.

"Ever since Yu Lai left the Spirit Pagoda, you haven't been able to relax. I hope you have a great time this time."

"Thank you. Is there anything else? If not, I'll hang up."

Upon hearing this, the other side paused for a second, and Qian Gu Dong Feng said with a slightly heavy tone: "Yao Zhu, what happened to the Spirit Transmission Tower in Donghai City? The two newly transferred Spirit Ascension Platform Guardians died, and all three external soul bones disappeared."

External soul bones are different from ordinary soul bones; they are precious assets that can hardly be reused. Moreover, those three external soul bones are among the top-tier items in the treasure trove accumulated by the Spirit Pagoda over ten thousand years.

The Evil Eye Tyrant is a descendant of the Evil Emperor. After a thousand years of cultivation, he has developed an extremely rare ancestral form. If he had not fallen into the hands of the Spirit Pagoda, he would have had the opportunity to comprehend the power of spacetime and become the next Evil Eye Tyrant ruler.

The Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear carries the bloodline of the Bear King and is the only super soul beast in history to have produced two external soul bones. According to the Spirit Pagoda's historical records, when this Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear was captured, the Bear King went berserk on the spot, tearing apart two Title Douluos with its Dark Gold Terrorclaws.

"Yaozhu, this time... it's really over!"

The true intentions are revealed when the map is unrolled; the so-called friendly greetings are just a cover-up. The ancient east wind is clearly questioning Leng Yaozhu about the three external soul bones.

A conflict erupted between the deputy tower master and the tower master of the Spirit Pagoda. Zhao Xuanzhen subconsciously stopped applying the oil, while Leng Yaozhu remained calm and said:

"The eternal east wind, everything I have done complies with the rules of the Spirit Pagoda."

Lu Ming, the tower master of the East Sea Tower, reported that an anomaly had occurred at the Spirit Ascension Platform in East Sea City. The entire primary Spirit Ascension Platform was on the verge of collapse, and the original guardians were insufficient to stabilize the energy. The headquarters urgently needed to mobilize more guardians to guard it.

I believe the Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear and the Evil Eye Tyrant are the perfect match, so I decided to send them to East Sea City. The East Sea City Primary Spirit Ascension Platform has been restored to normal thanks to the two spirit beasts, and the matter has been resolved satisfactorily.

As for the deaths of the two guardians and the external soul bones, I never expected that they could kill a super soul beast of the thousand-year level under the limitations of the peak of the third ring of the initial spirit ascension platform.

That said, the guardians of the Ascension Platform of the Eighteen Heavenly Pillars are made of soul bones and have no absorption restrictions. This was originally the reward the Spirit Pagoda gave to powerful soul masters, but no one has been able to achieve it in the past ten thousand years.

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhao Xuanzhen heard Qian Gu Dongfeng's breathing become heavier, and at the same time he completely understood Leng Yaozhu's methods. No wonder she didn't directly send out three external soul bones; she was waiting for Qian Gu Dongfeng!

Following the rules, going through the procedures, and using a non-stick pan—Zhao Xuanzhen was all too familiar with this!

"Don't stop, keep going."

After criticizing Qian Gu Dong Feng, Leng Yaozhu turned her head and looked at Zhao Xuanzhen with dissatisfaction.

Unable to disobey his master's orders, Zhao Xuanzhen immediately began working, once again transforming into a diligent oiler.

"Yaozhu, you..."

On the other side, Qian Gu Dong Feng's voice revealed a strong sense of disbelief: Is this vacation serious? Where did it go?!

"That's how it is. If you have any questions, you can ask me at the next Spirit Tower meeting. Oh, by the way, the Donghai City Primary Spirit Ascension Platform is short of a guardian. You should bring back that century-old Dark Gold Terrorclaw Bear."

After speaking, Leng Yaozhu casually hung up the soul communication device.

"Teacher, will the three external soul bones affect your position as deputy tower master?" Zhao Xuanzhen asked softly.

"Of course not." Leng Yaozhu smiled faintly. "The Phoenix family has been operating for thousands of years, and its members have served as deputy tower masters of the Spirit Transmission Tower for generations. Their influence is deeply entrenched, and Qian Gu Dongfeng dares not easily break ties with them."

For the past few centuries, the Ancient Clan has firmly held the position of Master of the Spirit Transmission Tower, lining their own pockets and opening doors for their own benefit countless times. I only managed to obtain three external soul bones through legitimate means, which pales in comparison to the Ancient Clan's arbitrary and domineering rule.

Qian Gu Dongfeng knew perfectly well that bringing dirty things into the open would make things look bad for everyone. This communication wasn't about getting the soul bones back; he was subtly telling me to stop. Three external soul bones were the bottom line; I couldn't take any more.

"I see……"

The Spirit Pagoda headquarters is on the 107th floor, the residence of the Pagoda Master.

Behind the desk stood a middle-aged man, tall and handsome, radiating a powerful aura. The soul-guided communicator in his hand creaked and vibrated, as if it would explode at any moment.

Qian Gu Dongfeng's face was ashen. The Spirit Pagoda belonged to the Qian Gu clan. It was already excessive for Leng Yaozhu to steal three external soul bones without a word. But what angered him the most was Leng Yaozhu's words, which were clearly meant for others!

In the past, he pursued Leng Yaozhu for many years, but failed to get what he wanted. He had no choice but to marry her and have children to carry on the family bloodline.

Now that his wife has passed away, Qian Gu Dongfeng has rekindled his desire to pursue Leng Yaozhu, but fate has other plans. Leng Yaozhu seems to have come to terms with things and has begun to enjoy a happy life!

"Grandpa, calm down..."

A tall, imposing figure spoke cautiously.

"Grandpa is alright, Zhangting."
