Douluo Continent: Blue Overlord

Chapter 45 Every Opportunity Must Be Seized

Yu Tiancheng was piloting his plane close to Soto City. Using the Mind Network, he quickly located his parents and began exchanging information with his father, Wang Zhi.

This is an advanced ability developed through advanced cultivation of the Mind Network, enabling two people to transmit their voices over long distances via electrical signals.

Yu Tiancheng transmitted his voice to his father, saying that he had brought a 100,000-year-old transformed soul beast and planned to raise it first. He had already gained the initial trust of the beast, and now his father and mother needed to put on a show.

Wang Zhi was shocked to hear about the 100,000-year-old transformed soul beast. After confirming it repeatedly, he finally believed it to be true.

After listening to Yu Tiancheng's plan, the two disconnected. Wang Zhi then told Yu Xiaohong and Dugu Yan about Yu Tiancheng's situation.

Soon the three arrived at a desolate area outside the city. Before long, a black dot appeared in the sky. As the dot grew larger and the three could make out the outline of the object, a whistling sound came from it.

The plane then landed smoothly, and Yu Tiancheng jumped off the plane with Xiao Wu in his arms.

"You brat! You were the one who said you needed someone to protect you back then! And you were the one who ran off on your own!"

Before Yu Tiancheng could greet him with a smile, his mother, Yu Xiaohong, stepped forward, grabbed his ear, and roared angrily.

Yu Tiancheng hurriedly begged for forgiveness: "I was wrong, I was wrong, I won't do it again! Mom, there are other people here!"

Yu Tiancheng looked at his father, Wang Zhi, and used his telepathic communication to say, "Dad, why is this not what we planned? What happened to the show of motherly love and filial piety?"

Wang Zhi replied, "You're dreaming! You think you can get away with this by hiding your true intentions? You are you, and the soul beast is the soul beast. There's no need for us to act together."

After a long time, Yu Tiancheng was finally freed from Yu Xiaohong's clutches after being tortured for a while.

"Let me introduce you, this is Xiao Wu."

"These are my parents, and this is Sister Yanzi."

Yu Tiancheng gave a brief introduction to both parties.

Looking at Yu Tiancheng's parents, Xiao Wu sensed powerful soul energy fluctuations emanating from them, which filled her with fear. She shrank behind Yu Tiancheng, timid and afraid to show her face.

"What an adorable little girl! Let Auntie take a look."

Yu Xiaohong walked towards Xiaowu with a kind expression, gently taking Xiaowu's small hand in one hand and stroking her head with the other.

Yu Tiancheng was truly amazed to see his mother, who had been so hot-tempered just a moment ago, suddenly become so kind and gentle.

However, judging from Xiao Wu's expression, she was not moved by his kindness and dared not move at all.

Seeing this, Yu Xiaohong said to Dugu Yan beside her, "Yanzi, you haven't seen Tiancheng for a while. Let's go shopping. I feel like I get along really well with this girl. Let's chat."

"Okay, Aunt Hong." Dugu Yan grabbed Yu Tiancheng's arm and tried to pull him away.

Yu Tiancheng glanced at Xiao Wu one last time. Seeing her pleading expression, he gave her a reassuring look before leaving.

Once Yu Tiancheng and Dugu Yan were far enough apart, they stopped. Yu Tiancheng called out to the side, "Uncle Kun, come out for a moment."

With a flash of lightning, Yu Kun appeared two meters away from Yu Tiancheng.

Yu Tiancheng took out a map and a list of soul beasts from his soul tool and handed them to Yu Kun: "Uncle Kun, go and arrange for people to search near the red line on the map. Find a human-faced demon spider that is about 2000 years old and capture it alive."

Yu Tiancheng thought to himself that the human-faced demon spider was a relatively rare soul beast. If he set a range and a time limit, the spiders he captured would most likely be the ones that could produce the Eight Spider Spears with attached soul bones.

In fact, he could have sent people to conduct a thorough search much earlier, but his plans were much bigger, directly targeting the lives of the male and female protagonists. He thought that keeping the spider alive would still be useful, but unexpectedly, the foreshadowing he deliberately left behind ended up being completely useless.

Since that's the case, then he should seize every opportunity; he wants these Eight Spider Spears.

"In addition, we also need to capture a thousand-year-old soul beast alive. Just pick one from the list, or if you can't find one, something similar will do. In short, it must have strong recovery abilities."

Shrek and his group must have returned empty-handed; this thousand-year-old soul beast can be considered a welcoming gift to Oscar.

"Yes." Yu Kun didn't ask why, took the map and left immediately.

Dugu Yan asked, "Why are you looking for the 2000-year-old human-faced demon spider?"

Yu Tiancheng smiled and said, "This is a gift for Grandpa Dugu. It's a betrothal gift for marrying you."

Dugu Yan's face instantly flushed red: "Get lost! Fine, don't talk about it if you don't want to!"

"I'm telling the truth! Don't underestimate this human-faced spider; it might be priceless!" Yu Tiancheng said earnestly.

Dugu Yan was somewhat surprised and guessed, "What's so special about it? Could it be a soul bone?"

Yu Tiancheng said mysteriously, "Anyway, it's a good thing, just you wait and see!"

Unlike the harmonious atmosphere between Yu Tiancheng and Dugu Yan, the atmosphere among Yu Xiaohong, Wang Zhi, and Xiao Wu was somewhat unusual.

Yu Xiaohong and Wang Zhi each played a different role, one playing the good cop and the other the bad cop.

"Little girl, don't be afraid. I just want to know how you met Tiancheng?" Yu Xiaohong still treated Xiaowu with kindness and gentleness.

Before Xiao Wu could answer, Wang Zhi said sternly, "Does that matter? She's a transformed soul beast!"

After he finished speaking, eight spirit rings appeared on his body, and surging spirit power burst forth, demonstrating the formidable power of a Soul Douluo.

Xiao Wu was so frightened that she burrowed into Yu Xiaohong's arms.

"What does it matter! Once you transform, you're just a human, right?" Yu Xiaohong said indifferently.

Wang Zhi still wanted to negotiate something: "But her previous intelligence indicated that she had been staying by Tang San's side the whole time. Tang Hao couldn't possibly be unaware of her situation! It's best to resolve this as soon as possible!"

Yu Xiaohong seemed to be enraged by these words. Eight spirit rings appeared on her body, and the phantom of the Netherworld Thunder Dragon appeared behind her, instantly overwhelming her with its aura.

"What's wrong with Tang Hao?! Let him come!"

As Yu Xiaohong erupted, the scene fell silent.

"Um... I don't think anyone knows that I came back with Yu Tiancheng."

Xiao Wu could only understand part of the situation. Yu Tiancheng's mother seemed to want to protect her, while Yu Tiancheng's father wanted to get rid of her as soon as possible. The conflict stemmed from their fear that Tang Hao would come to take her away.

"Little girl, tell Auntie how you met Tiancheng and how you came back, and Auntie will try to find a way to protect you."

Yu Xiaohong's violent aura subsided, and she reverted to her motherly demeanor.

Afterwards, Xiao Wu recounted her experiences in the Star Dou Great Forest.

From the moment the Titan Giant Ape took her away to condense her soul ring, to the moment Yu Tiancheng suddenly appeared and tried to take her away, Xiao Wu felt guilty when she got to this part of the story. After all, she had intended to kill him at the time, so she had to omit the details and say that she was stunned by electricity and taken away.

He finally woke up on the plane, but his escape attempt failed, and he was punished instead. He then reached an agreement with Yu Tiancheng.

The agreement stipulates that Yu Tiancheng will provide protection and assistance in cultivation.

Xiao Wu herself served as the experimental subject for the other party's research.

Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaohong and Wang Zhi exchanged glances. Although Xiao Wu's explanation was brief, it was still more detailed than Yu Tiancheng's.

They had wondered how Yu Tiancheng knew that this girl was a 100,000-year-old soul beast in human form.

So this rascal of mine took the person away right under the Titan Ape's nose!

Then, they even went so far as to cruelly torment this beautiful young girl!

What's even more outrageous is that this little girl is also a bit dim-witted; she was actually fooled by that rascal so quickly.
