Douluo: The Unrivaled Demon Lord

Chapter 81 Rebellion against Tiangang
After Han Ruoruo's valiant struggle, she finally gained the right to move freely amidst the dejected look on Old Master Han's face.

It was already afternoon when she arrived at the Shu family manor. The maids passing by on the veranda bowed respectfully to her. The most senior maid even led her to the courtyard where Shu Yan was. Han Ruoruo smiled and did not refuse.

Upon waking from his meditation, Shu Yan immediately noticed Han Ruoruo sitting at a small table brewing tea. He was somewhat surprised, then got up and sat opposite her.

"Is the old man willing to let you out, Sister Ruoruo?"

Shu Yan's words carried a hint of a smile.

Although Grandpa Han is a titled Douluo, it would still be extremely difficult for him to stop Shu Yan. With his current mental strength and control over spatial power, he could not guarantee stable long-distance spatial teleportation, but at least short-distance spatial teleportation was no problem at all.

"Yeah, if I stay locked up any longer, I feel like I'm going to smell like medicine..."

Han Ruoruo stuck out her little tongue, then extended an arm towards Shu Yan. She blinked her beautiful, gentle eyes and smiled:

"Quick, smell her, does my sister still smell of medicine?"

Shu Yan pretended to lean forward and take a light sniff, then slowly said:

"No, but Sister Ruoruo, you smell just as good as the chicken leg I ate for lunch."

Han Ruoruo was stunned for a moment, then a hint of embarrassment and annoyance appeared on her face, and she quickly pulled her fair arm back.

"What kind of talk is that...?"

Shu Yan chuckled softly, then changed the subject:

"We'll probably be heading back to the academy in a few days. This holiday is so short, it'll be over in the blink of an eye."

Han Ruoruo rested her chin on her hand, softly hummed in agreement, and then smiled:

"I'm really curious to know what Ming'er's expression will be when she sees my 100,000-year-old eighth ring. Hmm... Ayan, what are you thinking?"

Shu Yan also had a smile on his face. He thought for a moment before speaking:
"I'm thinking, what three requests should I make to you, Sister Ruoruo..."

Han Ruoruo was taken aback at first, then she remembered her previous promise.

"Okay~ I've always kept my promises, but we agreed beforehand that these three requests can't be too unreasonable..."

Shu Yan nodded, looking at Han Ruoruo with interest, and then spoke directly:

"My first request is, Sister Ruoruo, from now on, for the next three days you have to call me brother..."

"what?"

Han Ruoruo was stunned for a moment, then her face quickly flushed red.

"What kind of request is this? I'm so much older than you, how can I call you 'brother'... It's not appropriate..."

Seeing that Shu Yan remained unmoved, Han Ruoruo put on a pitiful expression and continued to plead:

"Really, no, Ayan, can you change your request?"

Shu Yan remained unmoved, merely smiling as he looked at Han Ruoruo. After a moment, he spoke softly:
"Sister Ruoruo, I've been calling you 'sister' for almost twelve years. I'm only asking you to call me 'brother' for three days. Are you really going to refuse even this small request of mine?"

"this…"

Seeing Han Ruoruo hesitate, Shu Yan added:
"Besides, Sister Ruoruo, you've always taught me to be an honest and trustworthy person. In this situation, you should set an example even more..."

In less than two minutes, Han Ruoruo went from thinking to hesitating, then from hesitating to wavering, and finally, she chose to compromise. "Brother...brother..."

A soft, almost inaudible voice came from Han Ruoruo's lips. Her voice was delicate and carried a hint of shyness, which sent a tingling sensation through one's heart.

"Good~"

Shu Yan's smile deepened, and Han Ruoruo, who was already extremely shy, almost covered her face and ran away on the spot after hearing his voice full of doting affection.

From this day forward, her authority as the older sister has been completely destroyed...

……

The day of departure came quickly.

But before leaving, Shu Yan did something important.

As requested by the Spirit of Life, Shu Yan divided the life energy contained in a portion of the Spirit Gold, which was the size of a teardrop, into two parts and gave them to Yu Bingyan and Yu Ningyi respectively.

Of course, other people who were most important to Shu Yan also received a share, even the old man of the Han family got quite a lot.

With this life energy, their subsequent cultivation will become much easier, and even their life essence will gradually evolve in the process of absorbing life energy.

For example, when Grandpa Han was receiving life energy, he had the reluctant Xie Ji examine his body. Xie Ji concluded that the life energy Shu Yan gave him had revitalized his body, and with the addition of Grandpa Han's decades of accumulated experience, he would likely achieve a breakthrough in soul power in the near future.

The benefits of life energy are immense and long-lasting, which is why Shu Yan wants to share a portion of his life energy with everyone.

Of course, even though only about three Heavenly Dream Ice Silkworms were sent out, the life energy within Shu Yan's spiritual sea was still unimaginably vast.

If we ever run out of stock... sorry, then we'll have golden hawksbill turtles or silver arowanas to serve you...

……

During his short month-long vacation, Shu Yan's soul power has reached level 58. It's hard to believe that he only broke through to Soul King a few months ago, and now he can start preparing to break through to Soul Emperor.

This is an incredible thing; even Shu Yan himself thinks it defies the heavens.

He's only twelve years old, yet his soul power cultivation is already approaching that of a Soul Emperor, and his spiritual power level has taken a huge step forward from the tangible yet intangible level. Given time, his spiritual power will surely break through the tangible and tangible level.

At that time, no one in the world will be able to compare with him in terms of spiritual power.

Han Ruoruo was one of the few people who knew Shu Yan's true strength, and she also had endless feelings in her heart.

Shu Yan once jokingly said that he would definitely catch up with her in the future, but at that time Han Ruoruo thought Shu Yan was just joking.

Because at that time, her soul power level was at least forty levels higher than Shu Yan's!

But in just a few short years, the gap between them has narrowed so rapidly that even Han Ruoruo is now unsure if she can be a match for Shu Yan. Just Shu Yan's mysterious and unpredictable spatial abilities alone are enough to give her a huge headache and leave her completely helpless, with no way to counter them.

Now she truly believes that Shu Yan will surpass her in cultivation level in the near future. His brilliance has completely overwhelmed all the geniuses of his era and left an indelible legend in the world of soul masters...

This is Shu Yan's era. He is like the true master of this era, while others, no matter how dazzling or brilliant, can only become supporting characters in the end...
