Douluo: Divine Fire Xuanyuan

Chapter 435 The Threat of the Flame Lord: A Temporary Break in the Battle
It was a burly man with fiery red hair, over three meters tall, wearing a set of dark red armor covered with flame patterns.

Although his face is not handsome, his resolute and upright appearance easily gives people a sense of security.

“You are the Flame Lord!” Niu Tian frowned.

"Wow, so tall! So this is what the Flame Lord's human form looks like," Xiao Xiao exclaimed.

This was also the first time they had seen the Flame Lord in human form. Compared to his beast form, he seemed to be even stronger at this moment. This had nothing to do with his form; it was probably because he, like Niu Tian, ​​had activated the divine power within him, and his aura was in no way inferior to Niu Tian's.

"Flame Lord, do you want to be my enemy?" Niu Tian frowned.

"What do you mean by being my enemy? You have the duty to protect the Golden Tree, and I naturally have the responsibility to protect the inheritor. If you want to harm Yuwen Tuo, then why should I be afraid to fight you!" The Flame Lord laughed. "Although I can't defeat you, so what if we fight until the heavens and earth collapse?"

It had actually arrived long ago. Since the God of Fire had issued such a test, he had naturally considered the possibility that Tang San would send Da Ming and Er Ming to take action, so he secretly ordered Ah Huo to protect it.

If Niu Tian and Titan don't intervene, he can simply watch the show.

"So that's how it is. You're trying to force me to take action." Niu Tian's expression changed. How could he not see through the Flame Lord's intentions?

This guy actually tried to outsmart him.

Although guardian beasts like them are not like true gods who can only stay in the God Realm and can come to the lower planes, they are still limited. For example, he and Erming are only level 99 Limit Douluo and level 98 Super Douluo respectively in the lower realm.

Using divine power or the power of a priest is a violation of the laws of the divine realm.

At this time, if one were to engage in a fierce battle with another divine beast in the same situation, using divine power to cause widespread suffering and destruction in the lower planes, that would be a serious violation of the law.

He, the Flame Lord, and even Erming, who is not here, will be forcibly sent back to the God Realm and will never be able to come down again.

At that time, who here will be able to stop Yuwen Tuo?

However, if he didn't use divine power, he might not be able to defeat the Yuwen siblings with just his strength as a Limit Douluo.

They both reached into their robes, one taking a doll and the other pinching dragon scales. Did they think it couldn't tell?

Niu Tian waved his hand, "Flame Lord, take Yuwen Tuo away. As long as he doesn't touch the Golden Tree again, I'll spare him this time."

Unexpectedly, the God of Fire also had a hidden plan. With the Flame Lord protecting him, it was difficult for him to make a move against Yuwen Tuo for the time being, unless he didn't want to stay in the lower realm anymore.

"Senior!" Yan Shaozhe said anxiously, "Are we just going to let him go like this? He has ruined Shrek Academy!"

“My situation is special. As long as Yuwen Tuo doesn’t attack Wu Tong and the Golden Tree, even if he kills them indiscriminately, I can’t attack him,” Niu Tian sighed.

Unless there is no longer any divine control, he can act without restraint, but that's not the case now.

No matter how powerful his master is, he is only one of the five great god-kings.

There are four others, one of whom has always been at odds with his master.

Yuwen Tuo put down the Snow Empress doll in his arms, first bowing to the Flame Lord, "Thank you for your help, senior!" Then he looked at the Shrek Seven Devils and said, "As for you guys... well, I've had my fill of killing today, I'll take my leave for now. But Yan Shaozhe, remember this: my grudge with Shrek Seven Devils is far from over. Next time we meet, I will definitely pluck your wings. Qiu'er, Xiao Xiao, Senior Brother, let's go!"

"Wait, leave Xiao Tao here!" Yan Shaozhe tried to stop him.

Yuwen Tuo said sternly, "Don't push your luck, Yan Shaozhe. You should know what caused the hatred between me and Shrek Academy. I might let anyone go, but there are two people who are absolutely doomed. One is Ma Xiaotao, and the other is you. You'd better wash your neck clean and wait for me to cut off your dog head!"

After saying that, he flew away with Xiao Xiao and the others.

He remembered what happened today. He was no match for Niu Tian yet, so he would endure it for now and get his revenge one day. He just didn't know if Niu Tian could still drop a soul ring or soul bone in his current state.

"Hmph, I'm always here. Don't think you've already destroyed Shrek Academy!" Only after Yuwen Tuo left did Yan Shaozhe dare to suppress his fear and retort.

He was telling the truth. Shrek Academy's power is far greater than that. There are still many Shrek Academy graduates scattered across the continent.

They either live in seclusion, or serve as city lords of important cities in the three great kingdoms. Many of them even have connections to the imperial court, enough to interfere in the politics of the three great kingdoms. This time, he will use them all to make Yuwen Tuo a pariah on the Douluo Continent.

"You bastard, don't you dare leave!" Huo Yuhao, his eyes red, prepared to chase after him.

Niu Tian immediately grabbed his shoulder, and Huo Yuhao was unable to move under Niu Tian's powerful strength. "Yuhao, calm down. Even if you catch up with Yuwen Tuo now, you still can't beat him."

"Damn it, damn it, damn it!" Huo Yuhao pounded the ground with his fists, tears streaming down his face. He hated his own uselessness. Even with the help of Qiankun Wenqing Valley, he had advanced to the Soul Saint level, yet he was still so powerless against Yuwen Tuo.

"By the way, how's the Tang Clan doing?"

Suddenly, it dawned on me that this place wasn't just home to Shrek Academy, but also to the Tang Sect, which they had jointly rebuilt.

The Tang Clan is not located within the academy, but rather in the heart of the city.

"Huo Yuhao, don't worry. As long as the Tang Clan isn't at the academy, we're sure everything will be alright," Tang Wutong comforted him. "I observed from the air just now that Yuwen Tuo's control over his own power has reached an unparalleled level. He controlled his strength so that the black hole's coverage area was limited to Shrek Academy. The rest of Shrek City is fine."

Upon hearing this, Huo Yuhao breathed a slight sigh of relief. Amidst the misfortune, there was still a bit of good fortune; his third home had been saved.

"Huo Yuhao, if you want to avenge your academy, you must strive to become stronger, at least raise your cultivation to the same level as Yuwen Tuo, only then will you have a chance to fight him, understand?" Niu Tian admonished.

Cai Meier gently rubbed Huo Yuhao's head, "Senior is right, Yuhao. Although Shrek Academy has suffered such a great calamity, as long as we don't give up, there is still hope for the academy to be rebuilt. If the houses are gone, we can rebuild them. And those statues can be re-carved. Look, this golden tree is the core of our academy. With this as the foundation, we will definitely be able to rebuild Shrek Academy."

"That's right! Shrek Academy's millennia-old heritage won't be so easily destroyed!" Yan Shaozhe glared fiercely in the direction Yuwen Tuo and the others had flown away, thinking to himself, "Yuwen Tuo, you wait! I will make you pay for what you did today!"

He already had a way to get revenge on Yuwen Tuo. It might not be enough to cripple him, but it would be enough to make it difficult for him to move an inch on the continent.

Yuwen Tuo led the three of them out of Shrek City. As soon as they reached the city gates, they saw Cao Jinxuan and the others coming to meet them with flying soul tools.

They originally wanted to help, but Long Aotian stopped them outside the city, telling them to be responsible for providing support and not to rush into the battlefield.

This is a very correct judgment. Although Cao Jinxuan, Nana and others are quite strong, they are still far from being titled Douluo. They do not have the ability to fight against titled Douluo like Long Aotian. Therefore, their rash entry would only cause trouble for Yuwen Tuo.
