Xuexing's Plans

Chapter 14 Xuexing's Plans

Ye Yan's process of absorbing a 100,000-year soul ring was not short, because soul beasts that are over 10,000 years old will leave a soul mark after they die to attack the human soul master who absorbs their soul ring.

The same applies to the 100,000-year soul ring; during the absorption process, it's as if Ye Yan and the Titan Giant Ape's souls fought again.

"Da Ming, Sister Xiao Wu, I can't stay with you anymore."

As the Titan Ape's soul gradually dissipated, the eight soul rings surrounding Ye Yan also appeared, and another red glow appeared in the outermost area.

The ninth spirit ring is complete!

Starry Sky Forest, Lake of Life.

A ferocious beast with the head of a bull and the body of a snake burst out of the water and looked in a certain direction. He felt very uneasy, and he seemed to have just heard Erming's voice.

Could something have happened to Erming?

No, with Erming's strength, he could break through the encirclement even when facing a group of powerful human enemies. He must be overthinking it.

On the other side, after completely absorbing the ninth spirit ring, the accumulated spirit power in Ye Yan's body also began to erupt!

This single leap propelled him to level 93!

As soon as he finished absorbing the spirit ring, Ye Yan couldn't wait to return to where Zhu Zhuqing had been.

"senior!"

Ye Yan took the wine gourd back from Zhu Zhuqing's hand, took a big gulp, and felt his stomach cravings satisfied, making him feel comfortable all over.

Tian Dou City.

At this time, many forces within the city were secretly stirring because of Ye Yan's matter, the most intense of which was the internal struggle within the Heavenly Dou Royal Family.

The Heaven Dou Empire originally had four princes, but now only the eldest prince Xue Qinghe and the young fourth prince Xue Beng remain.

Although most forces sided with the eldest prince Xue Qinghe, a portion of the forces stood with Prince Xue Xing.

Everyone thought that Xue Xing was going to compete with the eldest prince for that position, but little did they know that he was actually standing behind the fourth prince, Xue Beng!

"We must find a way to win this person over. He can hold his own against those two old guys from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School; his strength is at least that of a Title Douluo!"

"Uncle, aren't we going against the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School by doing this? After all, that person destroyed the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's mountain gate. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is still very important to the royal family!"

"Foolish! The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has always supported that brat Xue Qinghe. What good will it do to treat him well? You might as well seize the throne first, and then suppress the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School if they don't submit!"

Xue Xing supported the Fourth Prince Xue Beng because she felt that the First Prince Xue Qinghe was strange. A long time ago, Xue Qinghe fell into the river and contracted a cold disease, and had been recuperating in the palace for half a year.

The following year, the second prince, who had originally intended to vie for the throne, died of illness without warning.

Two years later, the third prince showed signs of vying for the throne, but he also died of illness without warning less than two months later!

So Xue Xing immediately had Xue Beng play the role of a spoiled fool. In addition, because of his young age, he has been spared from death all these years, while he openly competes with Xue Qinghe.

He had a master like Dugu Bo by his side, so things had been peaceful for many years.

The main reason why Dugu Bo became a retainer of the Tian Dou royal family was to repay Xue Xing's favor by promising to protect him for twenty years.

More than ten years have passed, so the support of a Title Douluo is essential for Xue Beng to successfully inherit the throne!

That mysterious person doesn't seem to have any powerful backing. If they can win him over, along with Dugu Bo, they'll have won ahead of time!

"Your royal uncle will handle this. Just stay at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy. Remember, you absolutely mustn't focus on cultivation; behave like a spoiled brat!"

Xue Beng nodded heavily, then watched Xue Xing leave his palace through the secret passage. Their relationship must not be discovered, otherwise Xue Beng might also be poisoned!

After Xue Xing left, she immediately left the palace to head to Sunset Forest. Dugu Bo hadn't appeared for so long, could something have happened to him?

Sunset Forest.

At this moment, Xuexing stood outside Sunset Forest with a group of personal guards. The rest of the journey would depend on Xuexing alone.

The poisonous fog in the forest was very thick, and even if these guards followed them in, it would be useless. Only Xue Xing, who had the antidote given to her by Dugu Bo, could be immune to the poisonous fog.

However, Dugu Bo also set a rule for him: he could not pass through the poisonous fog at the very center, because that was where Dugu Bo healed his wounds, the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye.

"Dugu Bo, I know you're in here. I have something important to discuss with you!"

At this moment, Dugu Bo, who was in the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire, opened his eyes after hearing the noise. During this time, he had transferred all the toxins in his body to his soul bone. Nearly half of the toxins had been transferred!

Why would Xuexing come to him at a time like this?

Dugu Bo also replied loudly, "I have important things to do right now. We can talk about it after I go out!"

"This is urgent and cannot be delayed!" Xuexing said anxiously.

If Dugu Bo still doesn't agree, then he'll have no choice but to barge in. Although doing so might offend Dugu Bo, Xue Xing can't worry about that right now. Xue Qinghe will definitely take action as well, and he has to find that mysterious person before he has to!

Dugu Bo stopped what he was doing and walked out of the poisonous fog to meet Xue Xing and have a detailed talk.

"What's the matter that made you rush to find me?"

Over the years, Dugu Bo had come to understand Xue Xing's personality better. He could be considered a half-ruler. Unless there was something particularly urgent, he wouldn't have come here directly to find him, and he even seemed to be about to barge in.

Xue Xing recounted the story of the mysterious person from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, saying, "I must try to win over someone like that! He doesn't seem to have any powerful backing. If someone like him were to join the Heaven Dou Royal Family, our chances of winning against the Spirit Hall would increase!"

Xue Xing knew that if he asked Dugu Bo to find someone in his capacity as a prince, Dugu Bo would definitely not agree. Although he was a retainer of the Heaven Dou royal family, he was also a titled Douluo, one of the top people on the Douluo Continent!

But if we put it another way, all of this is to fight against the Spirit Hall!

Dugu Bo has a grudge against the elders of the Spirit Hall. As long as the hatred is directed at the Spirit Hall, they will have a common enemy!

Sure enough, after Xue Xing said that, Dugu Bo thought for a moment and asked about the person's characteristics, so that they could look for him.

But when Dugu Bo listened to Xue Xing's description, he felt that she was so similar to the person who had broken into the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well before.

"Are you sure it's a guy who looks to be in his early twenties, and who's completely drunk, carrying a black sword?"

"Yes, that's the news from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School!"

Dugu Bo: "."

I still owe this guy a life-saving favor, and now I have to find him to become a retainer of the Heavenly Dou Empire. This is another huge favor to me!
