Douluo: Dream Overlord

"Yanyan, you look so beautiful today!"

Yu Tianheng stared blankly at Dugu Yan, who was dressed in her finest attire, and said...

"Let's go shopping."

Dugu Yan smiled alluringly, a hint of disgust flashing in her eyes, and took the lead.

Upon seeing this, Yu Tianheng quickly followed. Behind them, Shi Guang silently followed at a distance, always keeping a certain distance.

The two arrived at Tiandou Street, the most bustling street in the Tiandou Empire.

This place is filled with all sorts of food stalls, acrobats, and merchants selling all sorts of strange and wonderful things.

Dugu Yan and Yu Tianheng strolled down the street. Yu Tianheng's gaze wandered casually over the bustling scene around him, but he kept his attention on Dugu Yan.

"What's wrong with Yan Yan these past few days? She's been keeping a distance from me, almost imperceptibly."

Yu Tianheng was a little puzzled. He wasn't stupid. The dragon-type martial soul gave him not only majesty, but also the vigilance of a dragon.

He could sense Dugu Yan's estrangement and indifference towards him, which was not only reflected in their daily life but also in other aspects.

"Did I do something to upset her lately?"

Yu Tianheng pondered the matter, but he couldn't figure it out. He recalled what had happened in the past two days, but he hadn't offended Dugu Yan in any way!

As the two strolled around, not far behind them, time was hidden in the crowd.

He spent a few copper coins to buy several skewers of delicious and inexpensive grilled meat, eating them while keeping an eye on what lay ahead.

He needed to lay a good foundation for what he was going to do next, so he ate some energy-rich roasted soul beast meat to build up his strength.

As time passed, Dugu Yan and Yu Tianheng grew somewhat tired from their stroll.

After Yu Tianheng bought Dugu Yan an expensive dress, Dugu Yan pretended to forgive him and happily checked into a five-star hotel with Yu Tianheng.

"Hello, could you please give me a room?"

A moment later, Shiguang came in, smiled at the receptionist, and said, "Could you please arrange a room next to the couple from earlier?"

"Okay!"

Under the influence of time's handsome appearance and spiritual power, the receptionist blushed and handed him a room key.

"Thanks."

Shi Guang took the room key, paid with gold coins, smiled, and walked into the elevator under the distraught gaze of the receptionist.

As the most upscale five-star hotel in the Heavenly Dou Empire, it is equipped with elevator facilities.

Time moved to the 45th floor and stopped in front of a room along the corridor.

He used his mental power to sense the activity in the next room, a smile playing on his lips, before entering his own room.

"Yanyan, it's so good that you're not angry."

Inside the room, Yu Tianheng sat on the sofa in the living room and breathed a sigh of relief.

For him, anything that money can solve isn't a problem.

Dugu Yan smiled and turned her back to him as she poured water from the kettle. She then took out a medicine bottle from her pocket, ground the medicine into powder, put it into a cup, and poured water in.

The drug became transparent and dissolved in the water the instant it came into contact with it.

Dugu Yan poured herself another cup. She took both cups of water to Yu Tianheng, handed him the one laced with medicine, and gave him a disapproving look.

"Drink some water, and don't do that again."

"Okay, okay." Yu Tianheng used to be quite the flirt, and the lesson he learned from women was never to contradict them.

After downing the water in his glass in one gulp, Yu Tianheng wiped his mouth and looked at Dugu Yan, saying, "Yan Yan, I've missed you so much lately..."

As he spoke, he stood up and tried to hug Dugu Yan, but she dodged him, giggling as she said, "Want it? Then come on! If you catch me, you can do whatever you want~"

Upon hearing this, Yu Tianheng revealed a mischievous smile. He hadn't expected Yan Yan to become so playful after she stopped being angry.

"You little devil, just wait till I catch you, I'll see what I do to you!"

Playing around, Yu Tianheng simply ran around the living room with his body, while Dugu Yan giggled and dodged, making it impossible for Yu Tianheng to catch her.

Gradually, Yu Tianheng's speed slowed down without him realizing it, and the Dugu Yan in front of him seemed to have multiplied into three.

"Hey, why are there three geese now...?"

"Fallen! Fallen!"

Dugu Yan looked at Yu Tianheng, muttering something to herself.

Yu Tianheng swayed precariously. He stumbled and looked at Dugu Yan, tilting his head in confusion. Just as he was about to say something, he suddenly collapsed to the ground.

"It's done!" Dugu Yan's face lit up with joy, and she quickly went next door to call Shi Guang over as planned.

"No need to knock, I already know."

Time opened the door, looked at Dugu Yan's joyful face, and smiled slightly.

He had visualized every move of the two people next door in his mind through his mental power, down to the smallest detail.

"Well done."

Looking at Dugu Yan, who had a smug look on her face, Shi Guang chuckled helplessly and reached out to touch the tall girl's smooth, long hair.

Dugu Yan rubbed against Shi Guang's hand contentedly and led Shi Guang into the room.

The first thing that came into view in the room was Yu Tianheng lying on the ground. Shi Guang helped Yu Tianheng up and used his spiritual power to check his condition.

The medicine provided by Shi Nian was indeed effective, managing to bewitch a Soul Master and cause his Soul Power to become sluggish.

Without hesitation, he channeled his mental energy into the other person's mind, awakening their subconscious.

Yu Tianheng opened his eyes, but they were lifeless, indicating that he had lost consciousness.

"Yu Tianheng, can you hear me?"

A deep, resonant sound echoed through the air.

Having tested Dugu Yan before, he now has a clearer understanding of how his mental power can modify the human subconscious and mind.

Yu Tianheng nodded, and Shi Guang continued, "I am your closest comrade-in-arms, and Dugu Yan is the woman you love most, right?"

Yu Tianheng hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

"Then you won't be wary of us, because we're the people you trust most, right?"

Yu Tianheng nodded, the passage of time amplifying the influence of his spiritual power on his voice. "As the people you trust most, you'll obey everything we say, right?"

In the process of rewriting the mind, time has revealed that if you use word traps to get the other party to agree with your views, they will be more compliant and less resistant to what follows.

Yu Tianheng hesitated and struggled for a while before nodding.

"That's right. We are your closest people, and we only say things for your own good."

The sound of time seemed to possess a magical power, calming Yu Tianheng's trembling body and allowing him to relax: "As your closest comrade-in-arms, you must remember my words and strictly carry them out."

Yu Tianheng nodded, his expression no longer furrowed, but relaxed like a baby.

"First of all, you are no longer the captain of the Heaven Dou Royal Team, but my dog, a loyal dog. You will protect me as you would protect your master."

Upon hearing this, Yu Tianheng's subconscious became intense, and the phantom of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex appeared on his body.

Clearly, Shi Guang's first words had angered him. His pride as captain and as a member of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex clan made him unwilling to submit easily.

However, under the cleansing effect of time's spiritual power and the absorption of fear, Yu Tianheng felt cheerful, and the phantom of his martial spirit disappeared from his body.

The soul power within his body became sluggish again.

Time sensed his condition and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
