Douluo Continent: Peerless God General, starting by deceiving Qian Renxue

Chapter 52 The Cultivation Plan for the Next Four Months

Four months passed in the blink of an eye, and during these four months, Nan Feihuang had fully adapted to life at the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy.

Through daily practice with Qin Ming, his Big Dipper Immortal Footwork has also reached the third level, the realm of mastery. His Eighteen Single-Handed Thrusting has reached the peak of the third level due to continuous combat with eighteen kinds of weapons.

Thus, Nan Feihuang could now move on to the next step, which was to cultivate more advanced martial arts.

After all, he wasn't the real Hegemon-King of Chu, and he couldn't use the Eighteen Single-Handed Strike Techniques like the most supreme martial arts. To become a true powerhouse in the future, he still needed to study even more powerful and unique skills.

Lü Lingqi has already written down her father Lü Fengxian's Ghost God Halberd Technique and handed it over to Nan Feihuang.

The Book of Dunjia also records another set of halberd techniques, which is inherited from the Overlord Halberd Technique of Xiang Yu, the King of Chu.

These two halberd techniques are completely contradictory.

The Overlord Halberd Technique is a powerful and domineering martial art that can overcome any technique with sheer force. A single strike of the halberd can cause mountains and rivers to change and the sun and moon to lose their color.

The Ghost God Halberd Technique is unpredictable and represents the pinnacle of skill. Lü Bu once used it to defeat Zhang Fei's spear technique in fifty rounds, making it the most outstanding skill in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, surpassing even Guan Yu's Green Dragon Saber Technique, Zhao Yun's Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix Spear, and the Serpent Coil Seven Probe Spear.

In fact, Nan Feihuang wanted to learn both of these martial arts, and he had already decided on his path.

Before he created his own halberd technique, he had a fighting style that allowed him to fight opponents several ranks higher.

The key lies at level 70, after obtaining the True Form of the Martial Soul.

To achieve this goal, he needed to find a way to go to the Haotian Sect and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. There were two very important things in those two places: a piece of information and an item that he needed to obtain.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is easy to deal with; we know where they are, and we can just exchange them for something else. The Clear Sky School is more troublesome; they are still hiding. Fortunately, we still have enough time, so there's no rush.

Therefore, Nan Feihuang will not study the Overlord Halberd and the Ghost God Halberd now, but will focus on cultivating his soul power and reach the Soul Saint level as soon as possible.

Once he gets what he wants, he will be confident that he can challenge Tang Hao and has a high chance of winning, thus avenging his mother's defeat years ago.

In the past few months, Nan Feihuang's level has reached the peak of level 29, and he may advance to Soul Venerable at any time.

During that time, he also celebrated his tenth birthday. On his birthday, Lan Xue came over in person to celebrate with him.

He traveled a long way just to wish his son a happy birthday, which made everyone realize just how much this Title Douluo doted on his son.

No one in the academy dared to offend Nan Feihuang. Even Prince Xuexing and Prince Xuebeng, who loathed him, kept their distance and dared not take any rash actions.

After all, a mother who wants to protect her child never listens to reason. If they can't guarantee that they can completely extricate themselves from the situation when they make a move against Nan Feihuang, Lan Xue probably won't have any sense of reason, and she won't care about the Heavenly Dou Empire. She will definitely come to their door with the Xuanbing Halberd and kill them.

The only thing that Nan Feihuang regretted was that he hadn't seen Dugu Bo, whom he wanted to see, during these four months.

That old poisoner is indeed elusive.

Perhaps he did secretly visit his granddaughter, but he was too lazy to bother with others.

Since the titled Douluo didn't want to see anyone, Nan Feihuang really had no way of finding him.

In fact, Nan Feihuang had tried the simplest method, which was to ask Dugu Yan to introduce him to Dugu Bo under the pretense of admiring him, or to visit Dugu Bo under the pretext of his mother.

However, after Dugu Yan went back and told him, Dugu Bo refused without hesitation. He said that there was no point in seeing a little kid. Even if Lan Xue wanted to see him, since they were both titled Douluo, she should come in person. Sending a child was too disrespectful to him.

"Perhaps I could have Dugu Yan convey the symptoms of Dugu Bo's illness to him, and he might be willing to see me then. But then again, no, Dugu Bo's poisoning must not be known to anyone, or he will be in danger." Inside the pavilion, Nan Feihuang muttered to himself. After thinking for a while, he gave up on the idea. He knew all too well how serious Dugu Bo's poisoning was when it flared up.

At that time, Dugu Bo was like a fish on a chopping board, completely at the mercy of others.

Therefore, Dugu Bo kept this a secret and would never let anyone know when he fell ill.

Although Nan Feihuang knew that Dugu Yan would never betray Dugu Bo, she was still young and willful, and somewhat reckless. If she found out and became overly worried, begging for help everywhere, such as from her boyfriend's Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family, that would be bad.

However, Nan Feihuang was not in a hurry at the moment. He guessed that he should be able to see Dugu Bo soon.

Because Dugu Yan had broken through level 30 and reached the Soul Venerable realm in the past few months, the color of her green eyes became even deeper.

Nan Feihuang could sense the accumulation of toxins in her body.

With his current medical skills, if he's not mistaken, Dugu Yan's poison backlash will begin soon.

Although the backlash wouldn't be too severe given her current level, as Dugu Bo's only granddaughter, he didn't believe Dugu Bo could remain calm.

"Feihuang, what are you doing here all by yourself?" Two people walked towards them; it was Xue Qinghe and Xue Ke, the brother and sister.

"Your Highness, Your Highness, why have you come together today?" Nan Feihuang stood up and asked.

"I came here because I wanted to discuss many things with you. As for Ke'er, she insisted on coming along when she heard I was coming to see you," Xue Qinghe said with a smile.

During these four months, besides studying at the academy, Nan Feihuang spent his time visiting the East Palace and Yuexuan to cultivate a good relationship with the brother and sister.

Xue Qinghe discovered that Nan Feihuang had very unique insights into politics, so he often had heart-to-heart talks with him, and later directly asked him to help him handle domestic affairs.

Not long ago, a massive snow disaster struck a city near the far north, causing countless casualties. Many houses were crushed, leaving people without food and homeless.

Xue Ye and Xue Qinghe were extremely worried about this matter.

They wanted to give money directly to disaster relief, but firstly, the amount of money and food needed was too much, which would greatly deplete the national treasury; secondly, it wouldn't help much, what use is it to just give them money and food if they can't rebuild their homes, then it's a bottomless pit.

Many officials have suggested simply relocating the people to other cities in the country.

This was a last resort. When Nan Feihuang heard this, he couldn't understand it. He thought the officials in this world were so bad at politics and probably not good at military affairs either. No wonder Tang San later proposed a strategy of cutting off food supplies, which was common in the Three Kingdoms period, and was regarded by the generals as the best plan in history.
