Douluo: Martial Soul White Tiger, I am the White Emperor of Heaven

Chapter 131 Clear Rewards and Punishments, Blood Spirit Mushroom, a Powerful Figure Comparable to a Title Douluo

The backyard of the Wu'an City Lord's Mansion.

Leaving aside Ye Lingling and Dugu Yan's playful fight, Dai Chengfeng had already stepped out of the hot spring.

When the old woman and Xiao'e, who had been waiting outside the door, saw Dai Chengfeng, they immediately bowed and said respectfully, "Greetings, Your Highness."

Dai Chengfeng glanced at the two men, paused slightly, looked them over briefly, and then strode away.

"Guard the area well; no one is allowed to enter."

"Once those two gentlemen have finished washing up, go to the accounting office and each of you collect ten gold soul coins. Just say that I told you to do this."

Upon hearing this, a look of surprise flashed in Grandma and Xiao'e's eyes.

Ten gold soul coins were a very generous reward for servants like them who worked in the city lord's mansion.

"Thank you for your generosity, Your Highness! Thank you, Your Highness!"

The two were so excited that they quickly bent down again, their voices trembling slightly with excitement.

By the time they straightened up, Dai Chengfeng had already disappeared into the distance.

At this moment, Xiao'e was filled with surprise and doubt, and couldn't help but ask the old woman beside her, "Grandma, His Highness really didn't blame us, and we even got a reward."

A gentle smile appeared on Grandma's face as she lightly tapped Xiao'e's forehead. "Of course, you need to see who went inside."

"If it's someone like Zhu Yan or Zhu Fan, even though they hold high positions, we absolutely cannot let them in without permission."

"But what if those two ladies..."

"You know, there's a lot to learn about this!"

Xiao'e tilted her head, her eyes sparkling with curiosity, and nodded as if she understood, pondering to herself:

If letting the lady in is all that's needed, and we have to keep it a secret from His Highness, then what will happen later...?

Thinking of this, Xiao'e's eyes lit up slightly.

Meanwhile, Dai Chengfeng, led by a servant, had already returned to the room Zhu Yan had prepared for him.

The room was decorated with exquisite elegance, and the wooden furniture exuded a faint woody fragrance, making it extremely luxurious.

However, Dai Chengfeng didn't pay much attention and changed into a white outfit with gold trim.

Looking at himself in the mirror, his well-tailored outfit made him appear even more handsome and dashing.

Dai Chengfeng nodded in satisfaction and went to the main hall.

The main hall of the city lord's mansion today is adorned with carved beams and painted rafters, covered with red carpets, and decorated with magnificent chandeliers and various other extravagant decorations.

Dai Chengfeng, with a cold and stern expression, strode to the head seat and sat down steadily.

He then instructed the servants waiting nearby, "Go and inform Zhu Yan, Elder Ye, and Senior Dugu Bo to come and see me."

"Yes, Your Highness."

The servant obeyed, bowed slightly, and hurried away, his footsteps echoing in the empty corridor.

Dai Chengfeng leaned back in his chair, his eyes deep, his mind racing with thoughts of the many matters to come, his brows furrowed slightly.

"Xu Guotao, how can we kill them without alerting the hundreds of thousands of garrison troops?"

After all, Jinshan Pass was a major strategic pass, and Xu Guotao had been stationed there for many years...

Their soldiers recognized Dai Chengfeng, but it was completely impossible to get them to surrender without a fight like the garrison of Wu'an City.

"Whoo~"

After a long while, Dai Chengfeng took a deep breath, but still had no clue.

stomping on...

At this moment, there was a sound of footsteps outside the door.

"Your Highness, are you looking for me?"

As soon as Zhu Yan stepped into the hall, he clasped his hands together, leaned forward slightly, and bowed respectfully.

Dai Chengfeng sat in the main seat, looked up at Zhu Yan, nodded slightly, his expression calm, and said:

"Yes, Elder Ye will be here soon. You will then take him to the Yin family."

Upon hearing this, Zhu Yan paused for a moment.

Upon hearing the mention of the Yin family, a flash of guilt crossed his eyes. He lowered his head deeply, cupped his hands, and said, "Thank you, Your Highness."

His voice carried a barely perceptible sob. Dai Chengfeng looked at Zhu Yan.

Although her anger had not subsided, Zhu Yan had indeed failed in his duties.

However, Zhu Yan was merely a collateral branch of the Zhu family and had never been highly regarded.

His soul power is only at the Soul King level. It is already quite remarkable that he has been able to hold his own against Xu Guotao and Dai Tian's forces until now.

Even when demoted, he kept the mission entrusted to him in mind; such loyalty is truly rare.

Furthermore, Zhu Yan deserves much credit for the rapid restart of the Dujiangyan project.

If someone else were in his position, they might not be able to do as well as him; his abilities are beyond question.

"We still lack talent, top-tier talent!"

Thinking this through, Dai Chengfeng's eyes grew increasingly expectant as he considered the upcoming itinerary.

However, at the same time, his expression softened.

Looking at Zhu Yan, he raised his hand and took out a Blood Spirit Mushroom from his Soul Guidance Ring. Although it was not a celestial herb, it was still a top-grade medicinal material.

"Zhu Yan, Your Highness is fair in rewarding and punishing. Although you have made many mistakes in your actions since I left, you have done your best and done the best you could."

Dai Chengfeng spoke calmly and unhurriedly, with the authority and impartiality of a superior.

"This is your reward; it is the Blood Spirit Mushroom."

"It can not only greatly nourish the body and strengthen the physique, but also stimulate the circulation of soul power in the body and accelerate the accumulation of soul power."

"Most importantly, it has a miraculous effect on helping Soul Masters break through their bottlenecks..."

"With your current strength as a level 59 Soul King, you will definitely be able to break through to the Soul Emperor realm after taking this."

"Your Highness..."

Zhu Yan's eyes widened instantly upon seeing the Blood Spirit Mushroom in Dai Chengfeng's hand, filled with immense joy.

After all, he had been stuck at the Soul King realm for quite some time and had not been able to enter the Soul Emperor realm.

This Blood Ganoderma is a godsend.

But in an instant, he looked ashamed, lowered his head even further, and unconsciously clenched the hem of his clothes with both hands, his heart filled with self-reproach.

He felt that his previous actions were truly unworthy of His Highness's kindness.

Thinking this, Zhu Yan suddenly knelt on the ground with a "thud" and kowtowed repeatedly, his voice firm and powerful, until blood seeped from his forehead.

"Your Highness's great kindness will never be forgotten by Zhu Yan, and he will repay it even with his life!"

Dai Chengfeng waved his hand, "Get up, and don't disappoint me again in the future."

"Yes, Your Highness, Zhu Yan will certainly remember Your Highness's teachings!"

Zhu Yan carefully put away the Blood Spirit Mushroom, responded respectfully, and spoke in a loud voice, as if he wanted to engrave this determination into his very bones.

Just then, clear footsteps sounded again outside.

A moment later, Ye Renxin, dressed in a gray robe, walked in.

Upon seeing this, Dai Chengfeng immediately stood up and strode towards Ye Renxin, his face beaming with smiles. "Elder Ye, you've finally arrived. The Yin family mother and daughter I mentioned before..."

Upon hearing this, Ye Renxin said, "So, Chengfeng, this is what you wanted to see me about."

As he spoke, a hint of confidence flashed in his eyes, "Leave it to me."

Dai Chengfeng cupped his hands slightly, "Then I'll have to trouble Elder Ye."

Immediately, Dai Chengfeng turned to look at Zhu Yan, his expression returning to seriousness: "Zhu Yan, you lead the way for Elder Ye."

"Yes!"

Zhu Yan responded crisply and turned to Ye Renxin, saying respectfully, "Elder Ye, this way please."

Ye Renxin nodded slightly and followed Zhu Yan away.

Dai Chengfeng sat back down in the main seat of the main hall, and the room fell silent once more.

"Now that my foundation is weak and I don't have many talented people under my command, I hope this next expert, who is comparable to a Title Douluo, won't disappoint me!"

Dai Chengfeng narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze filled with fervor and anticipation as he thought of the person he was about to meet.
