In Douluo Continent, I saved Zhu Zhuqing at the beginning.

Several people scooped up spoons and frantically stuffed them into their mouths.

Not far away, the dark figure lying by the wall muttered to himself, "Is this the legendary 'hungry dog ​​pouncing on its prey'?"

suddenly.

The Grand Duke of the Underworld clearly hesitated.

"Your Grace? What is it?"

Lin Yan noticed the abnormality.

"No, it's nothing... It was probably just a fishbone that grazed my throat."

The Grand Duke of the Underworld hurriedly returned.

But inside, a tremendous uproar was brewing.

If he hadn't been too afraid to act recklessly in front of the big shots, he would have surely roared to the heavens.

I made a breakthrough.

I actually broke through!

Because he inherited the family business too early and was distracted by worldly affairs, he could hardly move forward after reaching level 89 in strength.

He had assumed that this would be his life forever.

In fact, he had also wondered if his family's fate would change if he could reach the level of a Title Douluo.

He has always felt regret about this.

However, it only took one short day.

His long-cherished wish had come true. Unbeknownst to him, his soul power had reached level ninety.

Can you believe you can break through barriers while eating?

As he thought about it, tears unconsciously streamed down his face.

These are tears of emotion.

Lin Yan was slightly taken aback upon seeing this.

Has my cooking skill reached such a level? A duke, moved to tears by a meal?

.

Sunset West Mountain.

The entrance to the courtyard.

"Father, do you really not want Qing'er to come home and give the royal family an explanation?"

"Explain? Explain what? My Netherworld Clan has given him face! Qing'er, you don't need to go anywhere, just serve Mr. Lin well."

The Grand Duke of the Underworld shook his head like a rattle-drum.

What's the point of going home? Is it more important than getting opportunities here?

In the past, the Grand Duke of the Underworld would have found things troublesome.

But not anymore. After all, in this world, might makes right. Now that I've become a Title Douluo, it's time to reason with those who disagree.

What happened to the Star Luo Royal Family?

If you're all agreeable and compliant, we can still be good friends. But if you keep nagging and arguing, don't blame me, Zhu, for taking drastic measures.

At this moment, Lin Yan also came over from the backyard and handed out the basket in his hand: "I didn't prepare anything. Don't mind these local specialties. They are definitely green, non-toxic, and harmless."

"No problem, no problem!"

The Grand Duke of the Underworld took the basket and glanced at it. His heart pounded wildly.

He almost knelt down before Lin Yan.

The basket was full of fresh fruit, and there were also two bottles of water.

Suddenly, he felt a heavy weight in his hand.

These are all priceless treasures! With these items, the family's strength will definitely increase rapidly.

Making Xingluo's name change a reality is no longer a dream!

If you complain about this, you're out of your mind.

This is a huge profit.

.

They remained silent the entire way, and the Grand Duke of the Underworld was still in a daze when he returned to his residence.

But he soon noticed something unusual about the taste.

Before setting up camp, all the teams had already assembled. The four elders stood in a row.

"What are you doing?"

The Grand Duke of the Underworld was puzzled.

"Clan Chief, did you return alone? Where is the Second Miss?"

Looking up, I saw an old man with snow-white hair asking a question.

Why only describe his sideburns?

It's very simple. This old man has Mediterranean hair.

However, he possesses extremely high strength, having already reached level 87 as a Soul Douluo. He is the fourth elder of the family.

However, he has always been at odds with the clan leader.

"With the clan chief's strength, he shouldn't have failed... Could it be that he deliberately let the second young lady go?"

Another tall, thin old man appeared; he was the sixth elder of the family, a level 83 Soul Douluo.

They belong to the same faction as the Four Elders.

"Fourth Elder, Sixth Elder, don't talk nonsense. The clan leader is not that kind of person."

There was much discussion among the crowd, but some defended the Grand Duke of the Underworld. He was also an elderly man.

He was the seventh elder, the very last member of the family. A level 82 Soul Douluo.

"Indeed, Qing'er did not come back with me, but it was the best choice for her to stay by Mr. Lin's side, and it was the most beneficial decision for the family."

The Grand Duke of the Underworld stood there, his expression unchanged.

"Mr. Lin? Is he the Second Miss's mysterious teacher?"

The Fourth Elder was taken aback at first, then couldn't help but retort sarcastically, "Our Netherworld Clan and the White Tiger Clan complement each other, relying on the Star Luo Royal Family. This is the greatest advantage our family needs to protect."

beneficial!"

"The benefits offered by the Star Luo Royal Family are far beyond anything Mr. Lin can compare to!"

Upon hearing this, the Sixth Elder agreed. Even the Seventh Elder nodded in approval.

Only the Fifth Elder remained silent.

However, sometimes silence also means acquiescence.

For countless years, this has been the unchanging fate of the Netherworld Clan.

Even among the family guards, many of them were looking at the Grand Duke of the Underworld with a different gaze.

In their view, the clan chief had truly abused his power and broken the law by releasing his own daughter without authorization.

However, angering the Star Luo royal family will inevitably come at a price.

These people have been kneeling for so long they can't even stand up anymore… The Grand Duke of the Underworld frowned slightly, a chill creeping into his heart.

"Alas, the clan chief has indeed abandoned the clan's interests for his daughter."

The Fourth Elder sighed deeply.

"Hehe, I propose that we send out all the guards now to capture and bring back Zhu Zhuqing!"

The Sixth Elder took the opportunity to suppress them.

The Seventh Elder also frowned slightly. In this situation, he had no reason to stand on the patriarch's side.

He couldn't help but sigh inwardly, "Clan leader, you've made a mistake this time. Haven't you pushed the clan into the abyss?"

"A bunch of ignorant people."

The Grand Duke of the Underworld took in everyone's expressions and spoke slowly and deliberately.

"Is it so difficult to prove that the benefits Mr. Lin brings to the family far outweigh those of the White Tiger Clan?"

Chapter 43 The waters here are too deep; you can't handle it!

"Prove?"

The Fourth Elder almost burst out laughing. "How can you prove it? Are you going to tell me that the Second Miss's teacher is a Title Douluo? But Mr. Lin isn't here, so how can you prove it?"

"Heh, besides, so what if they're Title Douluo? The benefits they can offer are far less than those of the Star Luo Royal Family. After all, we have thousands of people to support."

"No! Qing'er's teacher is not a Title Douluo."

The Grand Duke of the Underworld gave a simple answer.

Hehe, skin smooth

Are Title Douluo strong?

Of course, it is powerful. Even the two emperors of the Star Luo and Heaven Dou Empires would address it as "sir" and treat it with courtesy, regarding it as an honored guest.

But what are we compared to the big shots?

The image of Sword Douluo bowing and scraping unconsciously appeared in his mind.

Isn't he just a simp?

Besides, is it really that difficult for a big shot to create a Title Douluo?

It's just a matter of a meal.
