Dugu Yan

Chapter 19 Dugu Yan

Dugu Yan was taken aback, then said disdainfully:

"Grandpa, what genius or not, I don't care who he is, no one can compare to my Tianheng..."

Just as Dugu Bo was about to say something, he heard a voice, equally disdainful, ring out from behind him…

"What jade or not, is this some kind of nonsense? Are you kidding me, Dugu Yan..."

Dugu Yan was stunned for a moment, and then, upon hearing that her beloved had been insulted, she turned around angrily. Just as she was about to roar, she froze on the spot.

This... is mainly because Shen Hanyu... he's just too handsome!

The dazzling light practically blinded Dugu Yan's 36k pure titanium alloy snake eyes...

After regaining her senses, Dugu Yan, her face filled with malice, said:

"Hey kid, who are you, and what are you doing here?!"

While most girls are somewhat attracted to good looks, a romantic mind can almost completely ignore these traits…

Shen Hanyu raised an eyebrow and said:

"Didn't Senior Dugu say that I'm now considered your older brother? How so? Call me 'brother' and let me hear it."

Dugu Yan nearly bristled. A diamond-shaped dark green crystal suddenly appeared on her forehead, her two long legs merged into a green snake tail, and two yellow soul rings appeared under her feet. A slightly fishy and sweet smell filled the air around her.

Shen Hanyu knew that this was the venom of the Jade Phosphorus Snake, released into the air from its body.

Although the amount is extremely small, excessive inhalation can still lead to symptoms of poisoning.

But what does that mean to Shen Hanyu, who is immune to all poisons...?

Shen Hanyu smiled indifferently and said:

"Look at you, you're a year younger than me this year, and you're only a two-ring Great Soul Master. Your sweetheart, that Yu Tianheng, how many Great Soul Masters does he even have?"

Dugu Bo stood aside, not uttering a word, simply watching everything quietly.

Dugu Yan really needs someone to curb her arrogance. It would be good for everyone. Although Dugu Bo felt sorry for her, he had to do it.

"Tian Heng is the heir of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan. Who are you? Tian Heng is only fourteen years old this year and is already a high-level Great Soul Master. What are you?"

Dugu Yan said with disdain and anger.

(Just to clarify, the real-life Fang Yuan's portrayal of the supporting characters in the original work is a bit odd. Dugu Yan and Yu Tianheng are both over twenty years old when they appear, but they are only at the Soul Master level. It just shows that their cultivation speed is really slow. This is not meant to be derogatory. If you have any better ideas, please feel free to discuss them.)

Five spirit rings, yellow, purple, black, and purple-yellow, slowly appeared beneath Shen Hanyu's feet. In the blink of an eye, the Frost Sky Spear was already at Dugu Yan's neck, and Dugu Yan's body was directly lifted up. If she took another step forward, Dugu Yan would instantly bleed on the spot!

Dugu Bo's dry lips moved, but he still didn't make a move.

Shen Hanyu glanced at it but didn't pay much attention. He just smiled, and the cold air on the Frost Heaven Spear slowly dissipated, bringing with it a terrifying chill.

Shen Hanyu slowly sheathed his spear, then took a few steps forward and said with a smile:

"Look at this, a fourteen-year-old Great Soul Master. I won't make a definitive assessment, but I do have to say that someone with innate level nine soul power should have already broken through to Soul Venerable by fourteen, like... many people. But your sweetheart just isn't one of them..."

Dugu Yan took a few steps back, staring blankly at the five spirit rings at Shen Hanyu's feet, before finally managing to say with difficulty:

"You...you are the Soul King!"

Shen Hanyu waved his hand, and his five spirit rings flashed.

"It's the real deal, and besides, I'm only a year older than you, thirteen this year. So, what do you think, Miss Dugu Yan?"

Dugu Yan swallowed hard, then suddenly asked:

"What...what's going on with your spirit rings? How did you manage that...?"

Shen Hanyu rolled her eyes and said:

"You're not trying to extract secrets from me so you can tell your boyfriend, are you?"

Dugu Yan hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

Shen Hanyu rolled her eyes, completely speechless.

Dugu Yan wasn't worried that Shen Hanyu would kill her, after all, her grandfather was right there, and the fact that he hadn't made a move meant that he approved of the matter...

"Don't even think about it. Yu Tianheng has no chance. Even if he did, it would be in the future. I think you know how arrogant and unreasonable the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family is, right?"

Shen Hanyu said with a half-smile, "I never thought Dugu Yan was love-struck when I watched the anime, so how come she's so... stupid in real life..."

"Tianheng... Tianheng isn't that kind of person... he..."

"stop!"

Shen Hanyu interrupted directly and said:

"Miss Dugu Yan, I'm willing to speak to you properly because your grandfather and I are close friends despite our age difference. He hopes that I can help take care of you in the future."

"I don't know how outstanding Yu Tianheng is, nor do I need to know, because I've never been interested in outsiders who can't keep up with me."

"You need a strong support system, that's essential. You know your grandfather's health. If you need it, after he passes away, no matter what happens to you, I will help protect you. If you don't accept it, out of gratitude for Old Bi Deng's help, I will still offer some assistance, but not as a responsibility, understand?"

"Now, don't say anything to me. Reflect on your own problems, then give me a written explanation before answering this question of whether you agree or not! Understand?"

"And the key point isn't whether you acknowledge this matter or not, but your attitude. With this attitude, who knows how many people you'll offend in the future? You have your grandfather protecting you now, but what about later?"

"Listen to me, calm down next time. You're acting like a... crazy woman..."

Dugu Yan choked up and stood there, not knowing what to do. In all her years of life, no one had ever been so fierce to her, let alone dared to say such hurtful things to her.

A pair of emerald green eyes slowly welled up with moisture as she looked at Dugu Bo. Dugu Bo hesitated for a moment, but still steeled himself and turned around with his hands behind his back.

Dugu Yan's eyes welled up with tears, her vision blurred, and finally she squatted down, hugging her knees and beginning to sob softly...

Shen Hanyu was also a little confused. After reflecting on it, he felt that he hadn't done anything wrong, so why was this woman reacting so strongly...?

Dugu Bo clenched his fists, but in the end he still stepped forward, squatted down, and gently patted Dugu Yan's back. However, he didn't know what to say for a moment and was a little at a loss.

Dugu Yan then moved to a different spot, threw herself into Dugu Bo's arms, and cried even louder.

Shen Hanyu leaned against a boulder, looking at the deep affection between the grandfather and grandson, and inexplicably felt a pang of longing for his own parents and sister.

It was to be expected that Dugu Yan, with her romantic nature, would not be able to accept this outcome immediately.

Shen Hanyu cursed inwardly. Sure enough, very few women on the Love Continent were normal; they all possessed some strange traits to varying degrees…

P.S.: I apologize to everyone. These chapters were really toxic... Damn, I realized I'd already almost finished writing them, so I just went ahead and wrote them anyway. I'll definitely be more careful next time. This time, I was writing while singing karaoke with friends, and a girl gave me some "horse piss," so my head was numb and my thoughts were a bit muddled...

Let the author's brother apologize to everyone directly.

P.S.: Please add this to your favorites and recommend it! (doge)
