Douluo Continent: I've joined forces with Tang San and taken Xiao Wu as my concubine!

Chapter 61, The Innocent Boy

Dugu Yan stared curiously at the ten-thousand-year-old Jade Phosphorous Serpent with her pale green eyes.

This Azure Phosphorus Serpent has been cultivating for ten thousand years and is over ten meters long. However, since the Azure Phosphorus Serpent is mainly a soul beast that hunts with venom, this ten-thousand-year-old Azure Phosphorus Serpent, although long, is not very large.

Its body is about the same thickness as a woman's waist, and with a length of over ten meters, it looks slender and graceful.

Its back scales are emerald green, just as its name suggests, while the scales near its belly gradually fade to a milky white.

At this moment, the Azure Phosphorus Snake was rubbing against Meng Bei's body with the milky white scales on its belly, and even resting its jaw on Meng Bei's shoulder, hissing its tongue.

Meng Bei pulled Dugu Yan's arm and drew her to his other shoulder, saying:

"Sister Yanzi, why don't you imitate the movements of this Jade Phosphorous Snake and you'll understand!"

Hearing this, Dugu Yan rested her chin on Meng Bei's shoulder with some skepticism, and then gently rubbed her lower abdomen against Meng Bei's back.

"This feeling..."

Dugu Yan's face flushed red instantly, and she quickly slipped away.

"You bastard, you definitely did that on purpose!"

Dugu Yan said accusingly.

Meng Bei waved his hand, feigning an innocent expression.

"What do you mean, intentional?"

As he spoke, he reached out and stroked the Azure Phosphorus Serpent beside him, saying casually:

"Isn't it normal for a female snake to go into heat?"

Dugu Yan's face turned red with anger, and in a fit of rage, she grabbed something and threw it at Meng Bei!

"You even said you'd go to Grandpa to reason with him!"

Dugu Yan ran off quickly.

She went to Dugu Bo and told him about Meng Bei's evil deeds.

However, Dugu Bo naturally sided with Meng Bei, and even scolded Dugu Yan, saying that Dugu Yan was too willful and making a fuss over nothing.

In short, Dugu Bo arrogantly helped Meng Bei.

But in Meng Bei's opinion, Dugu Bo's wingman skills were really terrible.

Although he was just a novice in love and a pure young man, he knew he couldn't act like Dugu Bo in this regard!

If we were to evaluate Dugu Bo using the rating system from Douluo Continent, he would probably only be at the level of a Great Soul Master at best.

Meng Bei even wondered if the old man had never been in a relationship.

There was no other way but for him to personally ask Dugu Bo to arrange the plot!

When Dugu Bo heard Meng Bei's proposed arrangement, he was immediately shocked.

"Kid, what were you thinking? Do you really think this will work?"

"Why not? You old poisoner, you're incredibly stupid! Do it the way I say it!"

"you!"

"Stop with you, or there won't be any time left!"

After saying that, Meng Bei left the room without waiting for Dugu Bo's agreement.

Dugu Bo was so angry at Meng Bei that he couldn't speak. After Meng Bei left, Dugu Bo slammed his fist on the table repeatedly in anger.

"Rebellious against the Heavenly Spirits! Truly rebellious against the Heavenly Spirits!"

"Besides, something feels off. Why does this kid seem more enthusiastic about this than I am?"

Dugu Bo was somewhat puzzled.

In his view, shouldn't Meng Bei be outwardly compliant but inwardly delaying things? But now it seems that Meng Bei has already taken the initiative to do this.

"Could it be that this kid has really fallen for Yanyan?"

Dugu Bo thought it was possible.

Therefore, he was much more satisfied with Meng Bei.

What Dugu Bo never expected was that high-level hunters often appear as prey, and this time he might have lost both his granddaughter and his army.

However, Meng Bei was right about one thing today: time is running out.

At this time, within Tiandou City, thanks to the continuous investigation by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, a clue has finally been found.

The clue was provided by Xue Qinghe, the crown prince of the Heaven Dou Empire.

This Crown Prince is a disciple of Ning Fengzhi, the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. He and Ning Rongrong often address each other as brother and sister. Therefore, although he has never met Meng Bei, Meng Bei can be considered his brother-in-law.

Now that Meng Bei has disappeared in Tiandou City, he naturally put in a lot of effort to investigate.

A few days later, Xue Qinghe found a clue.

It turns out that the royal court of the Heaven Dou Empire has been keeping a group of Soul Masters with unique Martial Souls.

These Soul Masters weren't particularly strong, nor were they exceptionally talented. Their only redeeming quality was that they each possessed one or two unique Soul Skills or Martial Souls.

For example, some people's martial souls can bring rain, some people's martial souls can explore underground minerals, and some people's martial souls can enhance sexual pleasure, etc...

Among them was a man named Liu Qi, whose martial spirit was a pen that could replicate anyone's handwriting.

According to Xue Qinghe's understanding, on the day Meng Bei disappeared, someone took Ning Fengzhi's letter to Liu Qi and asked him to forge a letter!

Knowing this, Liu Qi was practically a prime suspect.

He was quickly arrested and interrogated by Xue Qinghe.

Once we find out who commissioned Liu Qi to forge the letter, we can naturally follow the clues and find the truth behind Meng Bei's disappearance.

However, Liu Qi was acting strangely at this moment, stubbornly refusing to speak.

For two days in a row, various forms of torture were used, but Liu Qi was incredibly stubborn and they couldn't get any clues out of him.

It's important to understand that every day of delay increases the danger Meng Bei faces. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is furious, even alarming Emperor Xue Ye. Ning Fengzhi makes an exception, hiring a Soul Saint skilled in illusion from the Spirit Hall at a high price, intending to hypnotize Liu Qi and extract the true culprit!

Prince Snowstar could no longer sit still.

He quickly intervened personally, citing Liu Qi's status as a member of the palace and his knowledge of too many palace secrets as grounds, and forbade the Soul Saint invited by Ning Fengzhi from hypnotizing him.

This explanation would be fine for an ordinary person, but for Ning Fengzhi, it was undoubtedly a way of making excuses.

What kind of bullshit palace secrets are these? As the dignified sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, do you really care about these so-called secrets?

Ning Fengzhi completely ignored Prince Xuexing and went directly to Emperor Xueye.

After learning about the situation, Emperor Xueye naturally agreed to Ning Fengzhi's request, and even personally reprimanded Prince Xuexing.

Prince Xuexing already knew that the truth could no longer be hidden.

However, he had promised his friend, Poison Douluo, that he would do his best to cover it up.

Dugu Bo was the only Title Douluo on his side, so Prince Xuexing naturally had to do his best to cover for Dugu Bo.

He knew exactly how he got his position as a prince. Emperor Xueye had many brothers, but most of them were just idle nobles kept in captivity. Only he held real power. Why was that? Naturally, it was because of his relationship with Dugu Bo!

Therefore, Prince Xuexing, in a fit of rage, sent men to the prison overnight to assassinate Liu Qi.

Due to the urgency of the situation, he didn't even have time to conceal it. The assassination was more like an open attack, and the assassin was the only Soul Douluo guest in his palace.

This guest elder, relying on his cultivation level, stormed into the prison, killed all the guards, and also killed Liu Qi.

The assassin then made his escape. Although he was covered by a black robe, the soul skills and martial soul he used during his escape revealed his identity.

Ning Fengzhi and his group quickly followed the clues and found Prince Xuexing's mansion.

Afterwards, Ning Fengzhi and his group angrily stormed into the Prince's mansion.

Prince Snowstar, however, was completely unafraid.

He was a powerful prince of the Heaven Dou Empire. Now that Liu Qi was dead and there was no way to verify his story, as long as he continued to deny it, could the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School force him to confess?
