Douluo Continent: Narration Modified, Plot Begins to Collapse

Chapter 74 Another Encounter with the Dragon and Snake Goddess

The three continued walking, and as they walked, a snow-white deer suddenly darted out from the side.

Liu Erlong was overjoyed upon seeing this:

"Excellent! A 1200-year-old Snow Deer, Crimson Pearl—this spirit beast's spirit ring is definitely suitable for you!"

Just as Liu Erlong was about to make a move, he suddenly noticed two teeth marks on the snow deer's hind leg, from which black blood was flowing, seemingly containing a deadly poison.

The next second, a blue snake darted out and bit the snow deer's belly. The snow deer, not to be outdone, stomped on the snake with its hind hooves, and the snake and the deer became entangled.

"Wow, buy one get one free? I love it!"

Liu Erlong laughed and made his move, killing the Azure Serpent with a single strike. At the same time, he also brought the Snow Deer to the brink of death, leaving it with only its last breath.

"Jiangzhu, go, deliver the final blow, then absorb the soul ring."

Jiangzhu was stunned for a moment, then took out a small knife and walked over, looking somewhat bewildered, as if she hadn't expected the soul ring to arrive so suddenly.

Bai Yu was also somewhat bewildered. Liu Erlong was indeed decisive. If it were him, he would have waited until the two soul beasts were both severely injured before making a move. Well, mainly because he didn't have the strength of a Soul Saint.

Jiangzhu walked to the dying snow deer, looking at its snow-white fur, and hesitated as she held up the small knife.

After hesitating for a moment, she closed her eyes and raised the knife.

"Spare the deer!"

Just then, a weathered voice interrupted Jiangzhu. Liu Erlong looked in the direction of the voice and saw the Dragon God and Snake Goddess leading Meng Yiran out.

Liu Erlong frowned and said:

"Is it you?"

The Dragon God and Snake Goddess were also stunned, and said with an unfriendly expression:

"Liu Erlong, it's you! We were the ones who first set our sights on this Azure Serpent, intending it to be my granddaughter's third spirit ring, but you interfered! This is intolerable!"

Liu Erlong sneered:

"Heh, two seconds slower? Even if it was only 0.2 seconds slower, that's still your incompetence! Besides, you didn't seem to have injured this Azure Serpent at all, did you? It was just fighting a snow deer. If we follow your logic, then I set my sights on this entire Star Dou Great Forest first, so why aren't you getting out of here?"

Bai Yu, standing behind Liu Erlong, was stunned. He had originally planned to greet the Dragon God and Snake Goddess to resolve the misunderstanding, but judging from their conversation, it didn't seem to be a misunderstanding at all.

Did the two sides have a history of conflict?

Meng Yiran tugged at the snake woman's clothes and asked her question. The snake woman explained:

"Yiran, she's from the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan. More than ten years ago, she became enemies with your grandfather for some reason. Now that we've met again, I think it's the perfect time for us to take our revenge!"

Liu Erlong treated her coldly. Although she appeared calm on the surface, she was extremely anxious inside.

Although she was confident that she could rival the Dragon Lord, the Dragon Lord and the Snake Woman combined were comparable to a Title Douluo, and she was no match for them. Moreover, she had Jiang Zhu and Bai Yu behind her, and if a fight broke out, it would be disastrous.

Liu Erlong secretly glanced at Meng Yiran, knowing that once the fight started, she would try to take her hostage.

The Dragon God and Snake Goddess also coldly watched Liu Erlong, preparing to avenge the arrow wound from many years ago.

Just as the atmosphere was becoming increasingly tense, Bai Yu stepped out from behind Liu Erlong and smiled:

"Senior Dragon Lord, Senior Snake Lady, we meet again."

Liu Erlong was shocked. How dare Bai Yu come out like that? He could be slapped to death by the other side!

Just as she was about to pull Bai Yu back, she suddenly heard the surprised voices of the Dragon and Snake Goddesses opposite her:

"Huh? Bai Yu? What are you doing next to this woman?"

Bai Yu smiled and explained the situation: the Shrek Academy students were ambushed by two great soul beasts. Zhao Wuji was unable to attend to them all, so Bai Yu lured away the Scorpion Lion alone to protect his companions, and was rescued by Liu Erlong.

The Dragon God and Snake Goddess were dumbfounded, while Meng Yiran had mixed feelings, thinking to herself:

"Bai Yu almost risked his life for his companion?"

Liu Erlong squatted down and whispered in Bai Yu's ear:

"Bai Yu, do you know them?"

Bai Yu nodded, briefly recounted what had happened to Liu Erlong, and then looked at the Dragon God and Snake Goddess, asking:

"Seniors, although I shouldn't interfere in your past grievances, this place is the Star Dou Great Forest, which is fraught with danger. If you fight to the death here, I'm afraid that Meng Yiran and I will be in danger. I urge you to calm down. It's better to resolve conflicts than to let them fester."

The Dragon King and the Snake Queen exchanged a glance, and the Dragon King laughed:

"Well, lad, you're trying to persuade us? I'm not one to act impulsively. Since Liu Erlong saved you, I'll do you a favor and let her go. But next time we meet, things won't be so simple!"

Liu Erlong was speechless.

She thought it would be a fight to the death, but to her surprise, Bai Yu resolved the crisis with just a few words.

"How come this kid seems to have more influence than me, a Soul Saint?"

Liu Erlong was extremely depressed.

Back when she and Long Gong became enemies, Long Gong was a Soul Saint, and she was a Soul Emperor, and they were also part of the Iron Triangle. However, after hearing about her background, Long Gong mocked her, saying, "What kind of bullshit Iron Triangle is this?" and then started fighting with her.

Even the Golden Triangle couldn't scare Long Gong, so why would he give Bai Yu face? Liu Erlong couldn't understand why.

The snake woman looked at Bai Yu and smiled:

"Little Baiyu, Liu Erlong has brought her students to search for spirit rings. Don't cause them any trouble. Come to Grandma, and Grandma will escort you out."

Liu Erlong's eyebrows twitched. "Are you trying to poach my talent?" she thought. "I'm just waiting to send Bai Yu away so I can sever all ties with Yu Xiaogang, who's still sleeping with pigs. How could I possibly hand Bai Yu over to you?"

She shielded Bai Yu behind her and said:

"No need to trouble you two. You're both looking for a spirit ring for your granddaughter, so we're in the same boat and neither of us should say anything to the other."

Lord Long chuckled and said:

"Liu Erlong, you are a Soul Saint, while my wife and I are comparable to Title Douluo. Xiao Baiyu is much safer with us than with you."

Liu Erlong's lips twitched, unable to refute.

Bai Yu, standing behind her, also felt somewhat helpless. It seemed that the Dragon God and Snake Goddess had once again come up with the idea of ​​taking him as their grandson-in-law.

That makes sense, as long as I'm with Meng Yiran, wouldn't all the bets be null and void? But I haven't had enough fun yet, how can I get married so soon?

Bai Yu was about to speak when he was suddenly struck by something and turned to look into the distance.

Behind one towering tree after another, the head of the Titan Ape could be seen appearing and disappearing among the lush foliage.

Bai Yu's heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously reached into his pocket for a hair clip that Xiao Wu had given him in case he encountered danger in the Star Dou Great Forest.

The hairpin carried Xiao Wu's aura, and since she was a 100,000-year-old soul beast, she could use the hairpin to suppress most soul beasts when necessary. However, the Titan Giant Ape could also sense Xiao Wu's aura.

Here it is!
