Chapter 317
Emperor's Dream! Ruthless Douluo!
Chapter 317 Emperor Tian's Dream! Ruthless Douluo!
"Hehe... I underestimated you. Your strength has increased quite a bit."
A soft laugh, devoid of any discernible emotion, drifted from the void, carrying a hint of surprise in its tone.
Directly in front of Jiang Yi, ripples spread out, and the moonlight distorted like water waves, condensing into a figure in black.
"Uncle Tian?"
Jiang Yi raised an eyebrow as he looked at the man in black who had appeared, a hint of surprise appearing on his face.
He had just sensed a spatial fluctuation nearby, and he never expected that it was Di Tian who had come.
Is this what "Gu Yue" means?
Just as Jiang Yi was pondering, Di Tian was also sizing him up.
After not seeing him for a while, has this little guy already been able to sense his actions?
With his spatial mastery, even ordinary Limit Douluo might not be able to detect his presence.
What a prodigy!
Di Tian narrowed his eyes, recalling someone from ten thousand years ago.
Even that guy probably couldn't do it, considering that Jiang Yi in front of him is only around eighteen years old.
"It was Miss who ordered me to come and meet you. I never expected that you would escape from the Holy Spirit Cult on your own..."
Di Tian's voice was flat, revealing little emotion.
They had all witnessed the complicated relationship between the Lord and this boy. Fortunately, the Lord had been so engrossed in his experiments for the past three years that he hadn't neglected important matters.
Otherwise, this kid should at least be taught a lesson about what the Dragon God's Claw is like.
Breaking the curse that allows soul beasts to become gods is his lifelong pursuit; he is willing to do anything to return to the realm of gods.
Although their lord is somewhat unreliable, he is their only hope, so they must be cautious.
Nothing can stop his dream of traveling the universe!
"Thank you, Uncle Tian! And please thank Yue'er on my behalf!"
Jiang Yi cupped his hands in a respectful gesture.
Mother Moon is really kind; she actually sent the Dragon Clan's Grand Steward to protect him. That's so kind of her.
"Ah."
Di Tian nodded slightly, and then his figure gradually faded away.
"Since you're alright, I'll go back and report."
He originally came only to see the Golden Dragon King bloodline in Tang Wuling, but unexpectedly, he was caught by Jiang Yi.
Now that he'd been discovered, his attempt to investigate Tang Wuling's thoughts was thwarted.
Although Jiang Yi was no match for him, he dared not make a move against Jiang Yi out of respect for Gu Yue.
However, just before his figure disappeared, Jiang Yi suddenly raised his head and looked at him with a smile.
"Uncle Tian, I have a question. Could you please answer it for me?"
"What's the matter?"
Di Tian raised an eyebrow, about to speak, but the next moment, his pupils contracted, and a fear stemming from instinct rose in his heart.
"This is……"
……
Deep in the far north, blizzards raged across the land, the powerful winds almost blinding people.
Two sharp sword lights pierced through the snow curtain, shooting down from the sky and accurately disappearing into a seemingly ordinary snowfield.
boom!
Snowflakes fluttered down, revealing a deep underground passage on the ground, and two figures gracefully descended.
A moment later.
In the underground base, two figures stood in the deep hall.
"They're lucky they ran fast!"
Zang Xin held the Amorous Sword and let out a soft hum.
They followed the Tang Clan's trail, only to find that the Holy Spirit Cult had already gone completely undercover.
"Alright, let's go back first! Perfect timing, little Wu Ling has also met up with them."
Zang Xin looked at the man beside her, her tone unconsciously softening slightly.
He was an equally handsome man, but compared to Zang Xin, he possessed a more resolute demeanor and was also older.
The man did not respond to Zang Xin. Instead, he frowned, and with a flash, he disappeared from the main hall like a ghost.
"Hey! Old Cao, wait for me!"
Zang Xin called out helplessly and quickly chased after them.
This guy has been hiding in the Blood God Legion for decades, leaving the Tang Sect entirely to him and becoming a hands-off manager.
If the Holy Spirit Cult headquarters hadn't happened to be located in the far north, this guy might not have even come out to help.
Deeper underground, beside a naturally formed, enormous rift valley, Cao Dezhi stood quietly, his gaze sweeping across the deep valley floor.
"What did you find?"
Zang Xin flew down and landed beside Cao Dezhi, asking curiously.
"abyss……"
Cao Dezhi frowned and said somewhat uncertainly.
"I think I sensed a very faint aura of the abyss here. Even if it isn't, it should be related to the abyss..."
He spent most of his life guarding the abyss passage and was extremely sensitive to the abyss's presence.
"The Abyss? You mean the Holy Spirit Cult is colluding with the Abyss Plane?"
Upon hearing this, Zang Xin's expression tightened, and the smile on his face vanished completely.
This is no small matter. The Blood God Legion was only able to hold off the Abyss's attack by relying on the power of the plane.
If the Holy Spirit Cult were to stab us in the back at this time, creating an opening, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"It's best if it isn't..."
Cao Dezhi's expression was solemn.
If the information Jiang Yi and the others sent back is correct, then it is most likely true... because only the Abyss has god-level beings.
If the Holy Spirit Cult wants to become gods, and comes into contact with the Abyss Plane, they will almost certainly become one with the Abyss.
I need to get back as soon as possible!
Cao Dezhi turned around and looked at Zang Xin, giving him instructions.
"Old Zang, I'll leave things to the Tang Clan in a bit of trouble. I'm off now!"
After saying that, Cao Dezhi disappeared.
The Holy Spirit Cult disappeared overnight. If this was a diversionary tactic, the Blood God Legion would be finished.
According to current intelligence, the Holy Spirit Cult has at least four Limit Douluos, a truly astonishing level of strength.
"Eh..."
Zang Xin raised his hand, then shook his head helplessly.
Really!
In such a rush, aren't you afraid of being ambushed on the road?
"The Abyss...The Holy Spirit Cult..."
Zang Xin shook his head and turned to leave.
I wonder if the Spirit Pagoda is also involved. If so, it will be a catastrophe for the entire continent.
……
When Zang Xin returned to the Tang Clan camp on the outskirts, the Tang Clan support troops that had followed had also arrived.
"teacher!"
Jiang Yi led Tang Wuling forward to greet Zang Xin, who had returned.
"Ok!"
Zang Xin smiled and nodded, then patted him on the shoulder.
"It's good that you're alright!"
He looked at Jiang Yi with a gratified expression. In the blink of an eye, several years had passed, and his disciple had already become a Title Douluo.
After a while, once Jiang Yi is familiar with the affairs of the Tang Clan, he can retire with honor.
It just so happens that the Blood God Legion is currently short-handed, and he feels that he can still contribute his own light and warmth.
Then, he glanced at Tang Wuling, who was affectionately holding Jiang Yi's arm, and smiled.
"You two have been childhood sweethearts, and since Wu Ling's parents are here, how about the teacher arranges your marriage..."
Zang Xin winked at Tang Wuling, his face full of kindness.
Anyone with eyes can see what this little girl is thinking, and the two of them are both exceptionally talented, making their marriage a perfect match.
"Teacher~"
Tang Wuling blushed and gave a coquettish reproach, but she did not object.
My brother's parents have passed away, so the teacher is like an elder to him, giving me a natural advantage in this regard.
"Haha! No rush! Let's talk about it when we get back!"
Zang Xin laughed loudly and led the two onto the Tang Clan combat vehicle parked nearby.
After everyone was transferred to the vehicles, several specially modified Tang Clan combat vehicles slowly disappeared into the snowstorm.
……
The headquarters of the Spirit Pagoda.
Gu Yue took off her white research coat, revealing her everyday clothes, and walked towards her private rest room.
In the lounge, Gu Yue sat alone by the window, holding a cup of steaming hot tea.
"How is the situation?"
She gently blew away the steam from the surface of the tea without turning around, and simply said calmly.
As she finished speaking, Di Tian's figure appeared behind her.
"Reporting to the Lord!"
Di Tian knelt on one knee and said respectfully.
"Lord... Jiang Yi has escaped the Holy Spirit Cult and reunited with the Amorous Douluo. He is currently on his way back."
"Within three days at most, we will be able to return to the Tang Sect's headquarters in Tiandou City."
Di Tian lowered his head, making it impossible for Gu Yue to see his eyes, or the slight tension in them.
That was close... I almost let it slip!
A glimmer of light flashed in his eyes as he recalled the Lord's instructions to him before he left.
Continuing to remain hidden beside the Silver Dragon King is a task assigned by the Lord, and there must be no mistakes.
And Xiong Jun, Wan Yao Wang, and the others... we also need to find a suitable opportunity to bring the Star Dou Great Forest back under the true master's command.
Yes, the Silver Dragon King is indeed of noble status, but the dragon race belongs to the dragon god.
I, Di Tian, am the Dragon God's bodyguard!
