Douluo: Dragon King's Divine Elegy

Chapter 224 Ah Yin can only be a maid, she absolutely cannot be a concubine!
The Ditian brand spatial passage is highly praised by all who have used it.

After Nan Liujing and Gu Yue stepped into the spatial passage created by Di Tian and left, the other beast kings also departed one after another.

Knowing they bore the heavy responsibility of publicity, the Beast Kings were determined to spread the news that the Great Ocean Supreme had been replaced.

It's definitely not because of any blessing.

The vast island instantly returned to its former tranquility.

The released demonic great white shark beasts all looked at their clan leader, their faces shrouded in fear mixed with unease. Meanwhile, Bai Xiuxiu, who had already walked away, stealthily returned.

"He didn't kill me." Xiaobai looked at the rubble on the ground and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

"Mom," Bai Xiuxiu said weakly, "isn't it a good thing that person didn't kill you?"

Xiao Bai reached out and rubbed his daughter's head, saying earnestly, "Xiuxiu, you must remember, I am the mount of the first Sea God and the watchman left in the sea by the second Sea God. My identity means that after the collapse of the Sea God's faith, some sea creatures that have long harbored grudges will no longer care about the Sea God's majesty and will launch a surprise attack on us."

"Just because this human doesn't kill me today doesn't mean that other sea beast groups won't attack us tomorrow."

"Over the years, I have gathered a vast amount of cultivation resources, which has enabled our Demon Soul Great White Shark Beast Group to flourish. However, this flourishing is only based on a belief system. When that belief collapses, we will inevitably collapse as well."

Upon hearing this, Bai Xiuxiu, who had been living in the Sweet House for years and was naive to the ways of the world, panicked: "Then what should we do?"

She asked the same question that the beastmen wanted to ask.

Hundreds of eyes turned to look at them.

Thanks to the blessing of the Sea God, the Demon Soul Great White Shark clan to which Xiao Bai belongs generally has higher intelligence and cultivation than other Demon Soul Great White Shark clans. They all understand what their clan leader said, and this is not just unfounded worry.

Xiao Bai looked around at everyone and said in a deep voice, "The Demon Shark Sea is our homeland and we must not give it up. Now I announce that, from the center of Poseidon Island, we will set up outposts in eight directions, every fifty kilometers outwards, up to a maximum of two hundred and fifty kilometers. If we encounter a powerful enemy attack, we will report it immediately."

"No matter what, this sea area has been cultivated by us for thousands of years; it is our home ground, and the advantage lies with us!"

"The advantage is mine!"

Hundreds of demonic great white sharks shouted in unison.

Soon, the demonic great white sharks in charge below the clan leader quickly implemented the clan leader's orders.

The clan leader remained calm, which also calmed the clan beasts down.

Ultimately, relying on home-field advantage, unless there's a sudden influx of dozens of Beastmasters like in the previous scenario, it will be very difficult for the enemy to break through the defenses of the Demon Shark Sea.

Furthermore, some sea creatures with long-standing grudges must also seriously consider how much they themselves would lose if war were launched and they were ultimately wiped out. Would these sea creatures' own tribes be attacked as a result?

The ocean is unpredictable, and even the sea princess wouldn't dare to claim she could sit back and relax.

After all the beasts had left, the composure on Xiaobai's face turned into worry again.

Bai Xiuxiu didn't quite understand: "Mom, are you worried about something? Is it unrelated to other sea creatures?"

Xiao Bai paused, then gave Bai Xiuxiu a meaningful look: "Xiuxiu, remember to keep the Shark King Pearl that your mother gave you safe."

Bai Xiuxiu said obediently, "Mom, don't worry, Xiuxiu has kept it safe and sound."

Xiao Bai smiled, looked up in a certain direction, and a strong sense of worry appeared in his eyes.

Twenty thousand years ago, she witnessed Tang San slay the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, who dominated the ocean. But the Deep Sea Demon Whale King, like her, was not alone. No one knew where the other female Deep Sea Demon Whale had gone.

If she finds out that the head of the Da Hai Kingdom has changed, will she come knocking on our door to kill us?
She can't take revenge on the sea goddess, but she can easily capture her followers.

……

"Here, take a look for yourself."

In the Heavenly Spirit Tower, Leng Yaozhu was dealing with a mountain of documents when she saw Nan Liujing walk in from outside. She casually waved her hand, and beams of light appeared, hovering in mid-air.

"what is this?"

Nan Liujing took a closer look and raised an eyebrow.

Leng Yaozhu chuckled, "After the live broadcast, Zhenhua has perfectly stepped back from the spotlight, and you have now become a master craftsman of our time. You are so young, and all the forces around you can't wait a moment longer. They immediately tried to invite Tianduan Metal through their local branch towers."

"This number is far too many." More than twenty different top-tier forces—just looking at them gave Nan Liujing a headache.

Leng Yaozhu smiled and said, "When Zhenhua was doing Heavenly Forging before, every time he succeeded, he had to rest for a period of time. Even though these forces had the conditions to exchange goods, Zhenhua itself could not continue to do Heavenly Forging. It was like there were too many wolves and not enough meat. But you are different. You can destroy a three-word Battle Armor Master without wearing Battle Armor. Your physical strength is obvious at a glance."

Nan Liujing complained, "So they just think of me as a tireless, stubborn mule?"

"Hmm~ She really is a stubborn mule." Leng Yaozhu remembered something, and a blush spread across her pretty face.

“Teacher, something’s wrong with you.” Nan Liujing blinked. “Fine, I’ll just pick a few invitations and accept them. Anyway, the Four Elements Heavenly Forging isn’t that difficult for me.”

Leng Yaozhu coughed lightly: "Perfect timing, I have a favor to ask you."

"You say it and I listen."

Nan Liujing first selected three top-tier forces that he found pleasing to the eye, then walked behind Leng Yaozhu, placing his hands on her round, fragrant shoulders. He intended to give his beloved teacher a massage, but his hands accidentally slipped and landed on her towering breasts.

Leng Yaozhu narrowed her phoenix eyes, feeling the tremors caused by the earthquake on the mountains: "I'll count to three."

No need to count.

Nan Liujing immediately withdrew his weapon.

One rule was agreed upon: no flirting or joking with teachers while they were in the office.

There's no way around it, the workload for the tower master is truly enormous.

Even though Leng Yaozhu had already assigned many tasks to the other spirit messengers and councilors, she was still very busy.

Leng Yaozhu's fair ears were slightly hot, and she breathed softly as she said, "In the entire Spirit Transmission Tower, there are actually only five true four-word Battle Armor Masters. Your great-great-grandfather was one, your great-great-grandfather and great-great-grandmother were two, plus me, and Qian Gu Dongfeng who ran back to the Spirit Transmission Empire to hide."

“Besides the five of us, there are more than thirty other people with cultivation levels of nine rings or above. However, the most powerful of these people only have a complete set of three-word battle armor, and the quality varies greatly. So I'm thinking, should we add an exchange channel to the treasure vault?”

Nan Liujing suddenly realized, "You want me to forge some high-quality metals to place in the treasury, specifically for councilors above the ninth ring or for offerings?"

Leng Yaozhu said gently, "That's right. But only Heavenly Forged Metal is put in, and only a fixed amount is put in each month."

Nan Liujing chimed in, "Given the allure of Heavenly Forged Metal, it's enough to motivate councilors and worshippers to dedicate themselves to the development of the Spirit Pagoda in exchange for contribution points, instead of slacking off as they used to. This is an excellent approach."

Leng Yaozhu nodded and said, "Since you, the master craftsman, have agreed, things will be much easier. By the way, you and Yue'er went out for a while, why did you come back so quickly? What were you doing?"

Nan Liujing began to massage Leng Yaozhu's shoulders and explained, "The sea has always been the foundation of the sea god's faith. The main purpose of Yue'er and my trip there was to break the sea god's belief in ruling the sea. Overall, everything went smoothly, and I also obtained a treasure that the sea god used to absorb the power of the sea's faith."

Leng Yaozhu enjoyed the massage, a hint of joy appearing in her eyes. She said, "Doesn't this mean that you will be able to take over the Sea God's rule over the sea in the future?"

“That’s right,” Nan Liujing replied.

“Good.” Leng Yaozhu praised, then suddenly changed the subject, “By the way, Xinglan and Siduo’s parents have come to Shrek City. Didn’t you want to meet your father-in-law and mother-in-law? This is a good opportunity.”

Nan Liujing paused for a moment while rubbing his shoulders.

Leng Yaozhu teased, "Nervous?"

"A little," Nan Liujing joked in return, "but also a little regrettable."

"Regret?" Leng Yaozhu closed her beautiful eyes and asked in confusion.

“It’s a pity your parents are no longer here.” Nan Liujing lowered his head and whispered in Leng Yaozhu’s left ear, “After all, they were my parents-in-law.”

Leng Yaozhu suddenly opened her eyes, turned her head and looked over, her small mouth opening as if to say something.

Nan Liujing was quick-witted and decisive in his attack.

His lips pressed directly against Leng Yaozhu's full, red lips.

Savoring the sweet fragrance, completing the kiss, less than a second later, Nan Liujing decisively took off running: "Teacher, I'm going to see my father-in-law and mother-in-law, I won't stay with you tonight."

"You can run fast."

Leng Yaozhu paused for a second, her cheeks flushed red, and she exclaimed coquettishly.

Hearing the door close, she chuckled to herself again, "If my parents were still alive, they would break my legs if they found out I'd become their apprentice's partner."

Humming a little tune, Nan Liujing took the elevator downstairs, intending to go to Chuanling Academy to discuss with Ye Xinglan and Wu Siduo whether to arrange a dinner party for tonight.

"Spirit Messenger." Everyone greeted him respectfully as he passed by.

Nan Liujing responded with a smile.

Not only ordinary members of the Spirit Pagoda, but also several councilors who pretended to bump into him by chance, greeted him with smiles on their faces.

Nan Liujing, without regard for personal relationships, returned the smile as before. She now had a clear understanding of the concept of a divine craftsman.

Although Leng Yaozhu's position and her becoming a Spirit Transmission Envoy make her seem noble, in reality, because the parliamentary system is practically defunct, the councilors don't care who the future Tower Master is. They just do whatever the Tower Master says, as long as they don't cause trouble.

The only exception is the master craftsman.

Are you a Title Douluo?
Have you got the three-word battle armor yet?
Want a four-word battle armor? The kind that grants you ultimate combat power after you equip it!
If you want it, then keep your mouth shut.

"That's the benefit of a monopoly."

Stepping out of the Heavenly Spirit Tower, Nan Liujing sighed, then boarded the hovering soul guide vehicle and sped along, soon arriving at the academy.

As the soul-guided vehicle slowed down and Nan Liujing took a moment to admire the scenery, his gaze suddenly changed. He then pulled out Long Yeyue's specially made communication phone from his storage ring.

The screen displayed the incoming call.

And the name is none other than... "The East Wind Through the Ages".

With an indifferent look in his eyes, Nan Liujing immediately made the call.

Qian Gu Dong Feng's calm voice came through: "How did things go?"

Nan Liujing's voice suddenly changed, becoming identical to Long Yeyue's: "Haste makes waste. What are you panicking about?"

Qian Gu Dongfeng coldly said, "Don't underestimate Nan Liujing's speed of progress. It's possible that within a few years, he will have combat power comparable to a Limit Douluo."

Nan Liujing grinned and, mimicking Long Yeyue's voice, continued, "I'll try to speed things up."

Qian Gu Dongfeng softened his tone: "I have already spoken with the Ghost Emperor. Whether it works out or not, you can join the Holy Spirit Cult."

Nan Liujing's gaze remained unchanged: "Remember what you said, don't wait until I've done the work and then you turn your back on me."

hum~
The communication was disconnected.

Nan Liujing held his phone, sneering repeatedly, "Once the plan against the Abyss is over, I'll come and take your dog's life right away."

However, there has been a wave of unrest.

Just as Nan Liujing was preparing to continue his journey to find the two women who had become instructors for the academy's combat courses, a terrifying aura, as if falling from the sky, suddenly swept over his head.

His expression changed slightly. He did not release his spiritual power, but through the car window, relying on his late-stage Spirit Realm spiritual power, he could barely see the sky in the direction of Golden Island. There were wriggling ripples, and a brownish-yellow light was faintly visible.

It remained stationary for nearly twenty minutes before finally, the terrifying aura dissipated, and in contrast, an invisible radiance of life faintly emanated from the Golden Island.

As a child of nature, Nan Liujing possesses an astonishing ability to perceive the laws of life in the universe.

It is no exaggeration to say that the laws of life have weakened throughout the entire Spirit Transmission Academy, including the area extending outwards for countless miles.

"Could it be?"

With something on his mind, Nan Liujing parked the car and decisively headed to Golden Island.

Upon arrival, one could see Ah Yin's graceful and gentle figure standing alone. On her heavy chest, a ball of green-gold light was flashing with intense spatial fluctuations, as if tentacles had appeared out of thin air, piercing into the void and then transferring the life energy inside the green light.

"Has the Titan Ape arrived?"

Nan Liujing stepped forward and asked in a deep voice.

Ah Yin, who was controlling the green-gold light, looked over upon hearing the sound. A smile appeared on her beautiful face as she respectfully replied, "Reporting to Master, it is the Titan Giant Ape."

call out.

Suddenly, Jin Lao's figure appeared beside him. He stroked his beard and said, "That Titan Giant Ape is really greedy. The life energy it seeks actually consumes a quarter of the energy stored in my body."

"So much? You gave it to me?" Nan Liujing was surprised that Erming would ask for such a huge amount.

“If we really gave him a quarter, the Abyss Plane would sense the sharp drop in the life energy level of Douluo Star within a year at the earliest, and might immediately try to break through the barrier and invade directly.” Old Jin sneered. “I had Ah Yin control him, so I only gave him one-seventh of the power. If I wasn’t worried about killing him prematurely and affecting your plans, I would have loved to slap him.”

"Don't worry, Mr. Jin, I will make up for whatever we gave away today in the future," Nan Liujing promised.

Mr. Jin nodded and smiled, "With your words, I can rest assured."

As soon as he finished speaking, Elder Jin's figure dissipated and returned to the Golden Ancient Tree. Losing one-seventh of his life energy at once could easily cause the laws of life to become disordered, so he needed to maintain stability.

Nan Liujing's gaze fell on A Yin's chest: "You mixed your soul into the parasitic seed. Is there anything wrong with your body?"

Even if he were blind, he could notice that Ah Yin's pretty face was slightly pale, as if she had just recovered from a serious illness.

Ah Yin paused for a moment, then smiled gently and said, "Don't worry, Master, everything will be fine once your soul returns."

"I'll trouble you for a while, but when I have the chance, I'll take you to see the sights outside," Nan Liujing said calmly.

The power of the servant contract is unparalleled. Upon hearing Nan Liujing's words, A Yin's face turned completely red. "A Yin thanks Master for his permission."

The visitors at Nanliu Scenic Spot nodded and turned to leave.

Leng Yaozhu also knew that A Yin had become a servant. The only requirement for the arrangement made by the God-King Mother was that A Yin could only be a servant.

However, Nan Liujing has no intention of touching A Yin at the moment. As for the promise he made to A Yin, it was just to provoke someone.

Do you remember a man named Ning Fengzhi who was tricked by Leng Yulai into coming to the Douling Empire?

Upon arriving at the bustling arena, Nan Liujing's gaze fell upon the hundreds of new students who had recently enrolled.

At that time, on the competition stage, there were many young people around thirteen years old exchanging soul skills, while Ye Xinglan and Wu Siduo stood aside as instructors for different types of martial souls.

They were already eighteen and a half years old, and their cultivation had all broken through to the late stage of Soul Saint. They had long since graduated.

Not only the two of them, but all the students in the same class as Nan Liujing either advanced to higher grades and are waiting to meet the graduation requirements, or graduated early and entered higher-level departments within the Spirit Pagoda to study.

In short, those young people from back then have all gone their separate ways.

For example, Tang Wulin, after graduating early, did not join the Spirit Pagoda, but returned to Donghai City, where he is reportedly already holding an important position in the Donghai Forging Masters Association.

"Pretty!"

Suddenly, a girl in the arena forced her opponent back with a single palm strike. Her surging soul power transformed into a shower of pink petals, a breathtaking sight that immediately drew cheers and shouts from the students outside the arena.

Wu Siduo and Ye Xinglan exchanged a smile. Just as another homeroom teacher from the class stepped forward to speak, a voice transmission reached the ears of the two girls.

The two women instinctively turned their heads and saw Nan Liujing standing in the contestants' passage.

As if remembering something, the two women blushed and became nervous.

"Dean!"

Just as the homeroom teacher of Class 1 was about to ask Ye Xinglan and Wu Siduo to say something, he suddenly saw Nan Liujing in the corridor and instinctively called out.

"Dean?"

For the hundreds of students in the class, the dean was a stranger, because the second dean, Nan Liujing, had never officially appeared in public.

In an instant, pairs of eyes turned to look, all eager to witness this peerless warrior who had defeated the three-word battle armor master.

Once they saw it clearly, gasps of surprise were almost incessant.

"I've come to pick up my fiancée. You two continue."

Nan Liujing said with a smile.

"Yes, sir," the homeroom teacher replied respectfully.

"fiancée?"

The students were filled with curiosity, as if they had discovered a new continent. Then they saw Ye Xinglan and Wu Siduo, who were known as the two of the Three Flowers of Spirit Transmission, and they all walked over to them.

"what?"

The trainees were dumbfounded!
