Douluo Continent: From Rusty Spear to Emperor-Slaying Spear

Chapter 51 First Encounter with Yu Tianheng

Just as the three were retracing their steps and about to leave the area inhabited by the thousand-year-old soul beasts,

Four men dressed in long blue robes, with the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex emblem emblazoned on their chests, stood guard before a blond-haired boy in a luxurious blue-white robe, quietly waiting for him to absorb the dead thousand-year-old soul beast—the Purple Lightning Dragon Eagle.

They suddenly heard a noise not far away and immediately summoned their martial spirits to be on alert.

"Who's there? Where is anyone?"

Only when Dugu Bo slowly emerged with Ji Wuming and Dugu Yan did the four lower their guard and quickly bow to him.

"Greetings, Your Majesty Dugu!"

At this moment, Dugu Yan and Ji Wuming's gazes were firmly fixed on the boy who was absorbing a soul ring.

"sky"

Just as Dugu Yan was about to say his name, she turned to look at Ji Wuming beside her, and then adjusted her tone.

"So it was Yu Tianheng absorbing a soul ring, but he only broke through to level 27 a month ago. How did his soul power reach level 30 in less than a month?"

Dugu Yan was very puzzled by this. She had reached level 36 in soul power after eating the Earth Dragon Golden Melon. Could it be that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan had also given her some immortal herbs that could enhance soul power?

Listening to Dugu Yan's explanation, Ji Wuming finally realized that the boy in front of him who was absorbing a soul ring was Yu Tianheng!

Ji Wuming's impression of Yu Tianheng was still based on the original novel and the private conversations between the two women.

This man pursued his younger sister relentlessly for a year, and although he won her heart, it ultimately stemmed from the fact that Dugu Yan had never been pursued before. Such an intense pursuit inevitably attracted the affections of a girl with little dating experience, which is quite normal.

Moreover, in his memory, Yu Tianheng's innate soul power was lower than his cousin's, probably around the eighth level of the innate level.

Although he is the grandson of Yu Yuanzhen, who is at level 95, his innate soul power is not as high as his cousin's, so his status in the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan is slightly inferior.

According to Ji Wuming's speculation, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan desperately wanted to recruit Dugu Bo, a Title Douluo who was an expert in pharmacology and whose poisons were renowned throughout the land. Naturally, marrying Dugu Yan became the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's primary choice.

As Yu Yuanzhen's grandson, Yu Tianheng is one of the most powerful candidates to compete for the position of chief of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex clan. Marrying Dugu Yan will undoubtedly bring him more prestige.

Of course, aristocratic marriages to consolidate family inheritance rights are perfectly acceptable, but the biggest problem was that after the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan was wiped out, the surviving Yu Tianheng participated in the war to eliminate the Spirit Hall.

Dugu Bo, following Tang San's advice, forcibly massacred the people in a city, and he died in battle as a result. It was because of this incident that Yu Tianheng inexplicably came to hate Dugu Yan, this immoral daughter of her family, and they eventually broke up.

Ultimately, a wife who has shared hardship should not be abandoned. The Dugu family fought to the death for them, yet after the war, Yu Tianheng wanted to sever ties with Dugu Yan. It must be said, there isn't a single good person in the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

Now that he has met Dugu Yan, and she is interested in him, then Yu Tianheng can forget about touching Ji Wuming's woman again.

Ji Wuming already felt a sense of disgust towards Yu Tianheng, who was absorbing a soul ring.

Meanwhile, the purple soul ring had gradually stabilized around Yu Tianheng. He slowly opened his eyes, and the first thing he saw was the even more beautiful and charming Dugu Yan.

He immediately stood up, completely ignoring Ji Wuming standing to the side, and excitedly ran to Dugu Yan.

"Yanyan, you've reached level 30 too? Weren't you only level 26 before? How come your soul power is increasing faster than mine?"

"Yan Yan, even with your grandfather's protection, Thunder Canyon is still quite dangerous. However, I know this place best. Tell me which kind of spirit beast you want, and I'll lead you to find it."

…………

Faced with Yu Tianheng's continued attentiveness, Dugu Yan felt somewhat uncomfortable. She remained silent about her rapid increase in soul power and instead walked up to Ji Wuming.

"We're here to help Brother Ji obtain a spirit ring."

"Brother Ji, and you call him so affectionately. I pursued her for half a year before she started calling me Tianheng, and this white-haired man in front of me has won Yanyan's heart in such a short time. Who is he?"

Yu Tianheng was immediately displeased to hear Dugu Yan address a strange man so intimately, but because he was the young sect leader of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan,

Moreover, since this was in front of Dugu Yan, he couldn't be too overbearing. He immediately looked at Ji Wuming, behaving very amiably, and spoke slowly and somewhat deliberately.

"My name is Yu Tianheng, from the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family. I'm Yanyan's best friend at the academy. May I ask where this brother comes from?"

"My name is Ji Wuming. Where I come from is not important. I will be studying at the Tiandou Royal Academy soon, so you can say I am your classmate."

Ji Wuming was quite displeased by Yu Tianheng's tone, which was full of hostility and who kept introducing his family. If it weren't for the need to consider the feelings of Dugu Yan and Dugu Bo, he would have been even more displeased.

At this moment, Ji Wuming had already said that he would soon be living in the Dugu family's mansion, declaring his ownership in advance. Dugu Yan was his woman, Ji Wuming's woman. Who did you, Yu Tianheng, think you were?

Upon hearing that Ji Wuming was about to enter the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, Yu Tianheng was filled with resentment, but he still smiled and said...

"Oh! So you're a junior! My apologies for not recognizing you. If you ever have any questions about your studies in the future, feel free to ask me or your sister Yan Yan."

While such words would normally be considered a very helpful and polite gesture, in the current context they act like a sharp knife, directly slicing apart the two parties' social standing and thus asserting sovereignty.

Ji Wuming chuckled a few times, then said with a slightly serious tone,

"My studies are taught by my teachers and younger sister, so there's no need for you, an outsider, to worry about it."

"you……"

The latest novel is first published here!

At this moment, Yu Tianheng was extremely angry. According to Ji Wuming's words, he actually called Dugu Yan "little sister," while he had pursued Dugu Yan for a year and, after getting to know her, found her to be extremely strong-willed. When had she ever been someone's little sister?

Moreover, judging from the current situation, Dugu Yan doesn't seem to feel uncomfortable about it. Could it be that this person used some means to please Dugu Bo, thereby forcing Yan Yan to do this, since she is the one who listens to Dugu Bo the most?

That must be it, otherwise how could Dugu Yan have fallen for the man in front of her in just one month?

Even so, the difference in strength between Dugu Bo and his grandfather was still enormous, and besides his mastery of poisons, Dugu Bo's other abilities were quite weak.

Given his grandfather's reputation, would Dugu Bo dare to turn against the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan for some unknown brat who came from who-knows-where?

However, asking his grandfather for help was Yu Tianheng's last resort. Since Dugu Bo admired Ji Wuming, he would trample him underfoot and show his strength to Dugu Bo and Yan Yan.

Happy New Year, dear readers!
