Chapter 78

The future Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, or rather the future of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, is in Yu Tianheng's hands; at this time, if we were enemies with the Broken Heaven Sect.

Perhaps the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon has no future left, then her and Yu Tianheng's future will also become vague and uncertain.

Everything done now is so that the two of them can walk together well in the future, the disgrace of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon and the bloodline of Yu Luomian that has drifted outside.

Being able to make use of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon's residual heat is already more than worth it.

Yu Tianheng perhaps still has a shred of feeling for Yu Xiaogang, but this is also indirectly for the good of Yu Xiaogang and Liu Erlong; after all, this is a forbidden love.

Duguyan prepared herself mentally, fully aware in her heart that she was selfish and self-serving; but so what? She is the esteemed granddaughter of Dugu Bo, and now also the possessor of a ten-thousand-year fourth ring; her soul power is rising rapidly, and in terms of talent alone she has far surpassed Yu Tianheng.

Those who do not act for themselves will be destroyed by heaven and earth.

"Tianheng, do you not believe me? I heard it with my own ears, and moreover, you personally witnessed the little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Glass Sect's martial soul evolving into the Nine Treasure Glazed Glass Tower."

"If you don't believe me, let's just go back now; there's no need to go in." Duguyan said with a cold face.

Yu Tianheng hastily grabbed Duguyan's hand and apologized, saying, "Sorry, Yan Yan, I don't mean to doubt you; it's just that this is too unbelievable, and Liu Erlong is an existence the family cannot mention, with a very explosive temper—I'm not even familiar with her."

"Visiting rashly is still because of Uncle Xiaogang's matter; I'm afraid she'll lose her temper and hurt you."

The coldness on Duguyan's face eased slightly.

She spoke earnestly: "Tianheng, I kept this from Grandfather and secretly told you; you should understand what this means to me!"

"Don't let me down; I am the grandson of Dugu Bo, she dare not really do anything to me; unless the Blue Tyrant Academy wants to be completely poisoned and become a dead academy."

Yu Tianheng nodded heavily, took a deep breath to muster courage, and pulled Duguyan into the Blue Tyrant Academy.

"Hello, I am Yu Tianheng of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family; I have an important matter to see the dean of the Blue Tyrant Academy."

The small garden of the Blue Tyrant Academy.

As Yu Tianheng and Duguyan had just arrived, they saw a woman in a green dress with long hair reaching her waist, a fiery figure, watering the flowers; the gloom in her eyes was an irrepressible sorrow and longing.

"Aunt!"

Upon seeing Liu Erlong, Yu Tianheng instead calmed down slightly and called out softly.

Duguyan's mouth curled slightly; although Yu Tianheng hesitated at first, when the critical moment came, his innate sense of responsibility still prevailed.

Liu Erlong turned her head, saw it was Yu Tianheng, and a flash of the name that Yu Xiaogang had mentioned to her years ago crossed her mind; he was one of the few juniors she respected.

Initially, she gave Yu Xiaogang considerable spiritual comfort.

"Are you Yu Tianheng? I often heard Xiaogang mention you back then; are you encountering some difficulties at the Tiandou Royal Academy? Auntie may have nothing else, but my fists are absolutely strong enough; if so, I'll now accompany you to get justice."

A fine layer of cold sweat appeared on Yu Tianheng's forehead.

He secretly thought that this auntie was indeed as the family rumors said, with an extremely explosive temper; she would resort to fists at the slightest provocation.

Duguyan beside him, however, was not afraid of this; just this aura, compared to Dugu Bo or even Sect Master Yang Yun back then at the Ice Fire Yin-Yang Eye, was worlds apart.

"Senior Liu Erlong, I am Duguyan Tianheng's girlfriend; this time we came mainly to tell you something."

Yu Tianheng grabbed Duguyan's arm, shook his head slightly, and looked at her solemnly.

If Duguyan were to say this matter, then if anything happens in the future she would definitely be unable to shirk responsibility; as a man, I should take responsibility. Turning his head to look at Liu Erlong, he said: "Auntie, it's like this; earlier I saw Uncle Xiaogang in Suotuocheng, he.

Whoosh! A strong gust of wind blew, and Yu Tianheng's shoulders were at some point seized by a pair of iron claws.

"Tianheng, is what you're saying true? Is Xiaogang still in Suotuocheng? I'll go find him now—quickly tell me where he is."

A pair of fire dragon claws dug into Yu Tianheng's arm, the flesh sinking in.

Duguyan's four soul rings lit up as she grabbed Liu Erlong's both hands: "What are you doing to Tianheng?"

Yu Tianheng reached out and grabbed Duguyan's wrist, gritting his teeth: "Yan Yan, don't be rude to Auntie; I can still bear it."

"Auntie, let me go first; I'll explain slowly."

Liu Erlong's reason partially returned, she loosened her grip on Yu Tianheng's shoulders; it looked as if five holes had been dug out, faintly revealing the reddened skin where she had grabbed.

"Tianheng, Auntie didn't hurt you, did she? Just now I was too impulsive, but your little girlfriend really has guts—I'm a Soul Douluo-level soul master; she actually dared to come up and try to pry open my hand while bearing my soul power."

"She's a good girl; don't let her down."

As she said this, a flash of divine sorrow flickered in Liu Erlong's eyes.

Who could understand that the one who spoke those words, urging Tianheng not to let down Duguyan, is the one who is most deeply let down by others?

"All right, Tianheng, tell me the details about Xiaogang's matter; also, you coming here today surely isn't just to inform me about this, is it?"

Although Liu Erlong is reckless, when it comes to Yu Xiaogang, her mind still turns a little.

Yu Tianheng rubbed his shoulders, took Duguyan's hand, and said: "Auntie, rest assured I will definitely not let Yan Yan down."

Seeing Liu Erlong's brows rise, he hurriedly added: "Uncle Xiaogang has already left Suotuocheng, but I think if you go see him like that, Auntie, he definitely won't meet you."

Liu Erlong raised her brows and demanded angrily: "Why say that? Do you mean to say I'm old and ugly now?"

Yu Tianheng felt as if he were standing on the mouth of a volcano, facing erupting lava at any moment.

He wiped away a nonexistent big drop of cold sweat.

"Auntie, please don't be angry; it's like this: Yan Yan earlier heard at the training grounds of the Toxic Douluo senior that there is a divine-grade herb capable of evolving a person's martial soul, washing the tendons and marrow, and reforging the fundamental bone quality."

"According to my investigation, the little princess Ning Rongrong of the Seven Treasure Glazed Glass Sect, whose martial soul is the Seven Treasure Glazed Glass Tower, has already evolved it into the Nine Treasure Glazed Glass Tower; the intelligence shows that the person who completed the transaction with the Seven Treasure Glazed Glass Sect used the divine-grade herb as a bargaining chip, causing the sect to pay tens of billions of gold soul coins and several ten-thousand-year soul bones to obtain this supreme treasure."

Liu Erlong is no fool; isn't Yu Xiaogang avoiding me these years just because of that pitiful self-esteem and the cowardice stemming from his martial soul defect?

If his martial soul could be refined and evolved by the divine-grade herb...

If he had no martial soul defect...

If he could shake off the labels of 'useless person' and 'useless martial soul,' would he then be able to accept himself and be together again?

Thinking of this, Liu Erlong couldn't help but feel her heart surge, and she anxiously asked: "Who is the person possessing the divine-grade herb? Where is he?"
