Douluo Continent: All I Do Is Destroy Rings is Skill.

Chapter 169 I want to see rivers of blood, I want to see my junior brother make a fool of himself.

The following day, Ning Wuque and Long Aotian, looking radiant, dragged Huo Yuhao to the front of the Body Sect's main hall to meet up with Du Busi. The four of them soon embarked on their journey to the capital of the Heavenly Soul Empire.

The secluded place of the Body Sect is not particularly far from the capital of the Heavenly Soul Empire. It is located in a mountain range next to the city. With the help of Poison Undying, they arrived at the city gate in just one hour.

Du Bu Si first kicked the gatekeeper who was collecting fees, then swaggered over with the three of them toward the Heavenly Soul Empire's palace.

Upon learning of the incident, the officer who came to inquire gave the soldier some compensation for emotional distress and then left.

Go ahead and report this to your superiors.

After all, Poison Undying controlled his strength very well; that kick only knocked him over without causing any real damage.

Not long after, the four of them strolled leisurely to the gate of the Heavenly Soul Empire's royal palace, where they saw several people already waiting for them.

One of the women, with golden hair and an elegant demeanor, caught Ning Wuque's attention. If he wasn't mistaken, she should be Princess Vina of the Heavenly Soul Empire, a dual martial soul possessor of Snow Lotus and Brain, a character on par with Wu Ming in the original work.

At the same time, Long Aotian was also sizing up the other party. There was no way around it, because there was only one young woman, Vina, at the entrance of this golden gate. The rest of them were either men or a beautiful woman who looked a lot like her, who was obviously the other party's mother.

It was obvious without even guessing that she was the person they had come to see.

The one who seemed the most listless was Huo Yuhao, who was trying his best to minimize his presence. He was genuinely afraid of being arranged by his master to marry into the Heavenly Soul Empire, but he couldn't refuse his master's kind offer.

All I can do is try to disguise myself as a lonely little guy so that the other party will take a liking to Brother Aotian.

On the other side, Ning Wuque and his group were observing their opponents, who were also observing them. Leaving aside the others, Vina was somewhat puzzled after seeing them.

Wasn't it said there were only two people? Why are there three? But that doesn't matter, it doesn't stop her from making some judgments and expectations in her mind first. Hmm, first of all, eliminate Ning Wuque. It's obvious at a glance that he's not one of the two people she's going to choose. His eyes are too deliberate, unlike someone from the Body Sect.

The guy next to me, Long Aotian, was incredibly tall and a bit muscular. Although he made me feel safe, I didn't really like him, and his skin was pale and looked sickly.

After eliminating two, Vina turned her attention to Huo Yuhao, the last one. He was all alone, like a little puppy trying his best to hide himself. He was an eight out of ten in appearance, and two more in age, making it a perfect ten!

A smile played on her lips, and a hint of affection flickered in her eyes. She had a good first impression of all three, but if she had to choose, she would prefer the slightly lonely Huo Yuhao, as he gave her a sense of nurturing.

It's just a little hobby of the older female students.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!"

"Oh, we'll be in-laws from now on, no need to be so formal. Little Vina, it's been so long!"

With a wave of his hand, Poison Immortal reached out and used his soul power to lift up the people who were bowing in greeting, then greeted Vina.

The latter first performed a royal salute befitting the Heavenly Soul Empire before replying in a gentle and melodious voice, enunciating each word clearly:

"Hmm, it's been a long time since I've seen Grandpa Poison. Could these gentlemen be...?"

After the polite exchange, Vina turned her attention to the others.

Ning Wuque stepped forward first, revealing his family background and stating that he was just there to join in the fun:

"I am Ning Wuque of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School. Today, I am honored to be brought here by Senior Body for a cup of tea. I have long heard that Princess Tianhun's beauty rivals that of a green lotus and her spirit is as cold as jade. Seeing her today, I can confirm it is indeed true!"

"Thank you for the kind compliment, Mr. Wuque. Vina is very grateful."

Covering her mouth and chuckling softly, Vina was delighted by Ning Wuque's praise. After all, no girl would refuse a compliment, right? Especially since Ning Wuque's words were so precise and elegant.

How embarrassing!

After nodding in acknowledgment, Ning Wuque retreated behind Du Busi and silently watched Long Aotian and Huo Yuhao.

The two of them stood there dumbfounded for a long time, neither of them taking the initiative to introduce themselves. Du Busi was so angry that he almost slapped them both on the head. It was so embarrassing!

Seeing this, Emperor Vidos of the Heavenly Soul Palace stepped in to defuse the situation, inviting everyone to rest in the palace's reception room.

"Why don't we sit down and chat? It's good to give the young people some space. The two original disciples haven't come out of the mountains for a long time, so it's inevitable that they'll have some brains left."

"Alright, alright, you two little rascals have really embarrassed us. Learn from Wuque, will you? Humph! I'm not saying anything more."

Let's go, let's go.

Leaving the three behind, Du Busi took the lead and walked ahead. Always concerned with saving face, he now only wanted to finish quickly and return to his sect.

Then Wolf scolded the two little rascals.

The others looked at each other for a moment, then quickly followed. After giving his daughter a few instructions, Vidos left her behind and then caught up with the quickened pace of Du Bu Si Na Gu Yi Jie.

Soon, only four young people remained on the spot.

"I still don't know your names. Could you tell me?"

"The Body Sect, Long Aotian."

"I—my name is Huo Yuhao."

"Um—Little Yuhao seems quite shy. How about we talk as we walk?"

Vina laughed awkwardly twice. It really matched her impression of the Body Sect members. Oh well, she shouldn't force it. So she walked over to Huo Yuhao's side, took his wrist, and walked with him.

Ning Wuque patted Long Aotian on the shoulder and gave him a look, and then the four of them walked together toward the palace.

"You did this on purpose?"

"No, I didn't."

The two exchanged glances for a while. When Ning Wuque saw the slightly upturned corners of Long Aotian's mouth, his heart twitched, and then he smiled as well.

Vina didn't notice their unusual movements; she was chatting with Huo Yuhao with concern when her left hand unconsciously rested on his back.

"How old is Yuhao's younger brother this year?"

"I'm fourteen. Um— Sister Vina, why don't you go to my senior brother Aotian's side? I—"

"Does your younger brother have some unspeakable secret?"

Seeing Huo Yuhao's hesitant appearance, Vina was very puzzled. Didn't Du Busi say a few days ago that he was going to bring two disciples with no ties? What's going on?

Seeking answers, she looked up at Ning Wuque and Long Aotian and asked:

"Can someone answer this for me?"

"I can't say whether I want to see rivers of blood."

"I want to see my junior brother make a fool of himself, but I can't say it."

Ning Wuque and Long Aotian shook their heads in unison, then stared at each other for a while.

Vina, somewhat annoyed, put her hands on her hips before looking down and asking Huo Yuhao again:

"Yuhao, tell us yourself. Didn't Grandpa Poison tell you why you came today?"
