Douluo: Legend of the Dragon King - The Voice of the Purple Emperor

Chapter 22 Phoenix Fury

Ding!

The soul-guided elevator reserved for the tower masters and deputy tower masters opened, and Gu You slowly stepped inside, looking at the platinum privilege card in his hand with a strange expression. After inquiring and checking, he learned that there were only twenty-five such cards in the Spirit Transmission Tower, and eighteen of them were in the hands of the eighteen branch tower masters. The rest were distributed among the Federation's high-ranking officials and some specific strong individuals. Leng Yaozhu's card was the most special of the twenty-five, as it was tailor-made for her.

The fact that Leng Yaozhu entrusted this card to Gu You shows how much she values ​​him. Thinking of this, Gu You felt a pang of sadness. She entrusted him with something so important, and not only did she not say thank you, she also ignored him for three years. Even if Leng Yaozhu wanted to beat him up now, Gu You would accept it.

A pair of fiery eyes stared at the sky outside the tower, seemingly very dissatisfied. Her hands began to squeeze the alloy table in front of her with great force, actually squeezing a corner of the alloy table off.

"You brat! You dare come back? If I don't teach you a lesson today, I'll be unworthy of the name Tianfeng!" Leng Yaozhu couldn't forget the incident a few months ago when Ya Li came to find her. Ya Li had claimed that Gu You had become her godson. She hadn't believed it at first, but… after investigating, it turned out to be true. She was furious. Who didn't know that she, Tianfeng Douluo, had a crush on Qingtian Douluo? And he, her disciple, was actually… actually… Leng Yaozhu tried hard to control herself. That brat Ya Li had even given her a piece of Heavenly Forged Crimson Flame Iron, which had initially improved her mood, but Ya Li claimed it was tuition for teaching a disciple!

Holy crap! Do I need you to pay me to teach people?! **...

It's alright! I'll be able to vent my anger soon. Leng Yaozhu stopped thinking about it and instead sent a telepathic message to Long Yali, asking her to bring Gu You over.

……

"Long time no see, Sister Yali." Gu You sneezed twice. Strange? Could it be that his master was scolding him?

"Hmm." Long Yali didn't say anything more.

"arrive!"

Whether it was a misperception or not, Gu You saw pity in Long Yali's eyes.

Looking at the metallic door frame in front of him, Gu You touched it and found that it was actually a little stuffy.

"Open the door," Gu You said softly.

The sound of machinery turning began to come, and the door started to open little by little until it was completely open.

Sister Yali! Help me!

Gu You was about to turn and run away when a wisp of flame flew out from the door and filled the entire space.

Ah! I won't do it again!!

After the flames subsided, Gu You huddled in a corner, looking somewhat disheveled at Leng Yaozhu.

"What's the use of not daring to? Do you know how much face I lost this time?" Leng Yaozhu felt somewhat aggrieved.

Gu You internally cursed, "You forced me to become your disciple before, and now that I've caused trouble, you're blaming me again." But he dared not say these words aloud.

"Master, I did go a bit too far this time, but... I still think I did the right thing." Gu You said stubbornly.

Yali, who was standing to the side, was dumbfounded. Not only did she not apologize, but she also talked back?

"you!"

"Master, the face you're talking about is nothing more than Yun Ming. You like him, but he didn't choose you in the end, and you're heartbroken. I understand all of that. But sometimes, that's just how reality is. We have to accept it. We can't change it now. Rather than that, we might as well become friends. That way, our relationship won't have been in vain." Gu You intended to put an end to Leng Yaozhu's last shred of hope.
