She Long paused for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "Young Master, rest assured, no matter who the other party is or what their purpose is, I will protect you with my life!"

"Moreover, with the pufferfish providing support from the shadows, coupled with your own strength and planning, you might not be unable to handle the situation."

Xue Qinghe nodded, but the worry in his eyes did not completely disappear.

He walked to the window, pushed it open a crack, and the cold night wind rushed in, blowing a few strands of hair on his and her foreheads.

He gazed at the deep night and the majestic palace outside, his voice tinged with solemnity:
"Zhou Xuan... I hope so."

"But in the face of absolute power, any scheme may appear pale."

"Pass down the order to make our people behave more cautiously in the near future, especially those near Sunset Forest."

"We'll talk about everything after we see the true colors of these three 'uninvited guests'."

"Yes, young master!" She Long bowed and accepted the order, his figure disappearing back into the shadows.

Inside the palace, only Xue Qinghe remained, standing alone by the window.

The night wind stirred the candlelight, casting his shadow in shifting light.

His gaze seemed to pierce through the endless night sky, landing on that distant valley that looked as if a cruel deprivation had just taken place, or perhaps on some place where those three mysterious and unpredictable Super Douluo might exist.

……

morning.

Tiandou City, Prince's Mansion.

Dugu Bo stood outside Prince Xuexing's luxurious study, his chilling aura, befitting a titled Douluo, spreading out without any attempt to conceal it.

Deep within his emerald green snake eyes lay the lingering power of the earth-shattering upheaval in Sunset Forest, and a sense of mission that compelled him to serve a higher being.

The young master needed a stronghold in the heart of Tiandou City, and Dugu Bo was the one who laid that foundation—although the young master had not yet specified what it would be called.

The heavy wooden door to the study was pushed open silently by a gentle yet powerful force.

Dugu Bo's figure appeared at the door like a ghost.

Prince Xuexing, who was working on documents at his desk, was startled. He looked up and saw Dugu Bo. The anger on his face instantly turned into utmost respect and fear. He almost immediately jumped up from his large chair, quickly walked around the desk to greet him, and lowered his posture to the lowest possible level.

"Your Majesty!"

Prince Xuexing bowed deeply, his tone filled with utmost respect, "I was unaware of Your Majesty's presence and have failed to greet you properly!"

"Please take a seat!" He personally pulled out the most honored guest chair next to the head seat.

Dugu Bo remained expressionless, merely nodding slightly as he calmly walked to the chair and sat down, his casual demeanor exuding a natural sense of pressure.

Prince Xuexing dared not sit in the main seat, but carefully sat in the seat slightly below him opposite, personally pouring hot tea with a humble demeanor.

“Your Highness!” Dugu Bo’s voice was hoarse and deep, getting straight to the point with a direct and unquestionable tone, “I have come today to ask you to do something.”

Prince Xuexing felt a chill run down his spine. For Poison Douluo to use the word "need" and personally come to his door, it was no small matter.

He immediately straightened his back and said solemnly, "Your Majesty, please speak!"

"As long as it is within my power, I will go through fire and water without hesitation!" His tone was resolute.

Dugu Bo was fairly satisfied with his attitude and directly made his request: "I want a piece of land, right here in Tiandou City."

"The location needs to be central, large enough, and quiet enough."

“The exact location…” He casually tapped his finger on the smooth mahogany table, and a faint ray of soul power precisely imprinted the location information of that prime piece of land in the central area of ​​Tiandou City, near the palace and adjacent to the main road. “This place, along with all the abandoned warehouses and old houses connected to it, I want them all.”

"Level it down and build... a place to settle down."

"Where to stay?" Prince Xuexing was taken aback, and then his heart was filled with shock!
Poison Douluo Dugu Bo is known throughout the world for his solitary nature and eccentric personality!
Why would he suddenly want to acquire such a large piece of land in the most central area of ​​Tiandou City? And even demolish and rebuild it?

This is definitely not his usual style!

Such a grand gesture, such a high-profile move... how can this be considered a "place to settle down"?
An extremely audacious thought, one that sent shivers down his spine, instantly entered his mind!
He blurted out, his voice trembling uncontrollably: "Your Majesty... this matter... is it... the order from those three lords of Sunset Forest?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Prince Xuexing regretted it so much that he wanted to slap himself!

He felt a chilling, bone-chilling killing intent that seemed to freeze his soul instantly lock him in place!
The temperature in the entire study plummeted, and even the air seemed to freeze!
Dugu Bo's emerald green snake eyes suddenly narrowed into slits, the cold light as sharp as a poisonous needle!

He leaned forward slightly, and the terrifying pressure of a Title Douluo crashed down like a ten-thousand-foot iceberg!
Prince Xuexing felt his bones groaning, his soul power was instantly suppressed and could not circulate, his breathing stopped, his face was as pale as paper, and the shadow of death clearly enveloped him!
"Xue Xing!" Dugu Bo's voice was like a cold spring from the deepest abyss, each word carrying a chilling coldness that could freeze the soul and a strong warning.

"I'll say it one last time: Don't ask what you shouldn't know!"

"Don't worry about things that aren't your business!"

"Your task is to do what I've assigned you!"

"do you understand?!"

The last three words resounded like thunder in Prince Xuexing's ears!

"Ming...understand!"

"Your Majesty, please forgive me!"

"It is I...it is I who have lost my mind!"

"It's time to hit!"

"He deserves a beating!" Prince Xuexing was so frightened that his voice changed. He quickly stood up, bowed deeply, and slammed his forehead heavily against the edge of the mahogany table with a dull thud. His body trembled uncontrollably.

"Don't worry! That land! I've got it covered!"

"Two days!"

"No!"

Within a day and a half!

"All paperwork and land deeds will be delivered to you cleanly and efficiently!"

"Take down the ramp and rebuild immediately!"

"Absolutely no mistakes! What do you think?" He just wanted to complete the task as quickly as possible and escape this suffocating topic.

Seeing Prince Xuexing almost paralyzed with fear, Dugu Bo slowly withdrew his killing intent, and his oppressive aura dissipated.

He leaned back in his chair, as if nothing had happened, picked up the untouched cup of tea, and gently stirred the foam with the lid. His tone returned to its usual calm, yet carried an even deeper sense of pressure:

"Okay. Remember your words. One and a half days."

He paused, then glanced up at Prince Xuexing, who was still shaken and had a red, swollen forehead, his tone carrying a meaningful warning:

"Your Highness, handling this matter well will only benefit you."

"If you don't handle it well... hehe, the consequences will be far beyond what you can bear. I may not be able to take responsibility for you either."

The phrase "Even I, an old man, may not be able to bear the consequences for you" was like the heaviest shackle, instantly binding Prince Xuexing's heart!

How could he possibly have the slightest thought of investigating?
All that remained was boundless fear and the determination to complete the mission as quickly as possible!
