Dugu Bo's Intentions, Dai Yutian's Fear

Chapter 81 Dugu Bo's Intentions, Dai Yutian's Fear (Please continue reading)

Just as Dai Yichen arrived at the Imperial Study, he happened to see an old man who looked very familiar to him walk out.

Dugu Bo!

Their eyes met briefly, then Dai Yichen pretended not to know him and looked away, walking straight into the Imperial Study.

Dai Yutian didn't expect that his son would come over right after he saw Dugu Bo off. He lingered on his son with a strange look for a while.

The main reason he invited Dugu Bo over was to find out what Dugu Bo's purpose was in coming here.

He felt both delighted and worried when Dugu Bo transferred to the school with his granddaughter and a genius healing-type soul master.

The good news is that the Star Luo Empire has a Title Douluo. Since the Clear Sky Sect closed its gates several years ago, the Star Luo Empire has been somewhat weakened in the face of the Heaven Dou Empire, mainly because it has no sect to support it.

If the Heavenly Dou Empire had no one to rely on, just like his Star Luo Empire, his Star Luo Empire would have crushed it long ago!

However, because of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, he couldn't help but feel a little apprehensive, fearing that one day the Heaven Dou Empire might resort to desperate measures and send Ning Fengzhi with two Title Douluos to assassinate him.

He was very familiar with the two Title Douluos of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. Rather than saying he was wary of Ning Fengzhi and Sword Dao Chenxin, he was more wary of Gu Rong. Gu Rong not only had superb defensive capabilities, but also a superb spatial teleportation ability. His assassination skills were even better than those of the Zhu family!

The one who is worried is Dugu Bo. No high-ranking official on the continent is unaware of the rumors that Dugu Bo is loyal to the Tiandou Empire. Who knows if his sudden arrival is intended to do something to the Xingluo Empire in secret? After all, Dugu Bo's reputation on the continent is not very good.

After their brief conversation, he breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that the reason Dugu Bo had come was because his granddaughter was interested in his son, which truly astonished him.

Dai Yutian did not doubt what Dugu Bo said. Although Dugu Bo had a bad reputation on the mainland, he had two rare virtues: he disdained to lie and he loved his granddaughter very much.

But he always felt that Dugu Bo must have had other purposes for coming here. Otherwise, he couldn't believe that Dugu Bo would transfer schools and leave the Heavenly Dou Empire just for such an absurd reason as his granddaughter.

And he and Dai Yichen were indeed father and son, thinking the same thing: now that Dugu Bo had come to their Star Luo Empire, there was no reason to let him escape, and the key to all of this lay with their son.

He believed in his son's charm. Since Dugu Yan was interested in him, with his son's methods, why not just win her over directly?

The thought of his son, who was only so young, having to go through such a terrible ordeal made the old father click his tongue in disapproval.

He is now placing all the hopes of the Star Luo Empire on Dai Yichen.

As long as one doesn't die young, one with innate full soul power will inevitably be granted a title. The reason he was wary of Gu Rong was that although he and the Empress had the strength of a titled Douluo after using their Martial Soul Fusion Technique, it took time to perform, and they couldn't stay connected forever, which was a clear drawback!

Seeing Dai Yichen approach, his previously cold face instantly transformed into a smile: "Yichen, I was just about to send someone to find you, and you came here yourself. I suppose you know why I wanted to see you, right?"

Dai Yichen consciously found a seat in the Imperial Study. People with high talent can have this kind of privilege, especially since it was in private.

"Yes, I saw Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling in class today. That old man who just walked out must be Senior Dugu Bo, right?"

"Yeah, what are your thoughts on their arrival?" Dai Yutian asked curiously.

Dai Yichen raised an eyebrow, giving him a knowing look.

The two were, after all, father and son, connected by blood. Moreover, over the past year, Dai Yutian had come to understand more and more what kind of person his son was, and he suddenly understood.

Dai Yutian: Hmm, it seems my son thinks the same way I do, hehehe!

Dai Yutian smiled maliciously to himself.

This is quite normal. Any titled Douluo is someone who needs to be courted on the continent. As for how the royal family will react to courting Dugu Botian, who cares!

He wasn't afraid of anything unless it was the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School that came to assassinate him.

As for whether the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School would really come to assassinate him, he wasn't worried at all. The sect valued its interests, and although Ning Fengzhi supported the Heavenly Dou Royal Family, he wouldn't obey Emperor Xue Ye's order to have Gu Rong assassinate him.

To put it nicely, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School supports the Heaven Dou Royal Family; to put it bluntly, it's only because the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is located within the Heaven Dou territory, and the Heaven Dou Royal Family is weaker overall, so supporting them would bring the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School more benefits.

As long as his Star Luo Empire doesn't break any taboos by deliberately harming the core disciples of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, especially the beloved little princess, nothing will happen to him.

As the emperor of the Star Luo Empire, he naturally knew about Ning Rongrong's awakening of her martial soul a few months ago. He also had some spies within the Heaven Dou Empire to keep track of its movements. As a sect that supported the Heaven Dou royal family, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was naturally among the key targets of his observation!

Dai Yichen: In the original work, your third son boasted that the Star Luo Empire was not afraid of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and even grabbed them by the neck and threatened to fry them first and then kill them, and then fry them again and kill them again!

Dai Yutian:

Dugu Bo, who had just left, recognized Dai Yichen at a glance. He had only pretended to leave, but was actually hiding in the void, ready to eavesdrop.

Then he saw the two people, one big and one small, giving each other the runaround; with their "flirting" expressions, he really couldn't figure out what they were talking about.

Inside the Imperial Study, Dai Yutian didn't discuss the matter of Dugu Bo too much, just in case Dugu Bo hadn't gone far and overheard it.

So he asked, "Since you didn't go to cultivate after lunch today but came here instead, there must be something else on your mind, right?"

Knowing son Moruo father.

Dai Yichen spoke softly, "There are a few things, Father. How much do you know about the Nine-Hearted Begonia martial soul?"

Dai Yutian was slightly taken aback, then remembered something: "Are you talking about that girl who transferred here with Dugu Yan and has the Nine-Heart Begonia Martial Soul? It's said that this Martial Soul only has one healing ability, and I don't know much else about it."

As Dai Yutian spoke, his expression became somewhat awkward. Unlike Dai Yichen, he wasn't curious about all kinds of martial spirit knowledge. He usually only learned things that were useful to him. Moreover, he had been in power for so long that there were some things he couldn't quite remember.
