Chapter 28: First sword upon landing, cut the lover first? If there's melon, eat it

"Azure Scale Dragon, what dragon is that?"

In the Douluo Continent, anything related to dragons, whether martial soul or spirit beast, is without exception a top-tier existence.

It is said that one of the overlords in the forbidden zone of the Star Dou Great Forest, the Azure Green Ox Python that can speak human language, became a hundred-thousand-year spirit beast due to possessing dragon blood (according to wild histories).

So, after receiving her grandfather's affirmation, Du Gu Yan was overjoyed.

Of course, Du Gu Yan wouldn't act like Ning Rongrong in the original plot, kissing Bai Ran (Tang San) on the mouth just because her martial soul evolved.

Although she wasn't exactly a good girl, at least she wouldn't be that casual.

Moreover, she harbored no romantic feelings for this little brother Bai Ran.

Bai Ran: "You, reeking of smoke and alcohol, how dare you deserve my soft and fragrant self?" (Du Gu Yan: "If you say that, then I, as your sister, must snake-kiss you.") "This Azure Scale Dragon is just an Azure Scale Dragon."

Du Gu Bo only knows the rough idea, but asking him to explain the details is too difficult.

There's no way; this martial soul only existed in ancient times, and records of the Azure Scale Dragon left behind are scarce.

"Grandfather, how does this Azure Scale Dragon compare to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon?"

Because the martial soul is an Azure Scale Snake, Yu Tianheng doesn't even dare to openly bring Du Gu Yan back to the sect.

After all, going to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family, a traditional clan that values bloodline highly, if Du Gu Yan's grandfather weren't a Title Douluo, the direct members of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family probably wouldn't even give her a glance.

"It's definitely stronger than that Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul."

The quality of the Azure Scale Snake and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon is almost on the same level.

But the Azure Scale Dragon evolved from the Azure Scale Snake isn't something the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon can mess with; you'd need a Bright Holy Dragon for that.

"In that case, aren't I even more outstanding?"

"Indeed, Yan Yan, you're now more outstanding; that guy Yu Tianheng is completely unworthy of you."

"Grandfather just happened to find you someone with better conditions."

Du Gu Bo originally looked down on Yu Tianheng, just a spoiled scion of a big family; setting aside the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family, he's basically trash.

Now that his granddaughter's martial soul has evolved into an Azure Scale Dragon, Du Gu Bo looks down on Yu Tianheng even more.

"Ah?"

Du Gu Yan: "First sword upon landing, cut the lover first? Speaking of which, isn't this our little fairy's favorite move? How are you, old geezer, playing it even cooler than me?"

Yan Yan, take a look at this little guy— isn't he not bad? Not only does his talent leave Yu Tianheng in the dust, his looks are excellent; he'll definitely be a charming young man when he grows up.

Du Gu Bo said while patting Bai Ran on the shoulder, introducing him.

"Huh?"

Bai Ran had just wanted to hear Du Gu Bo's evaluation of the Azure Scale Dragon martial soul, but somehow the conversation suddenly turned to him.

Where's the morality? Where's the bottom line? Where's the contact info? (A weird thing got mixed in) "Grandfather, you're saying I should dump Yu Tianheng and talk to this little brother?"

Du Gu Yan voiced her doubt, hoping this old man was just joking.

"Yeah, what's good about that little blond Yu Tianheng? Besides, his personality is tough, and he's an assault-system soul master; being with him, Yan Yan, you'll definitely suffer."

But this little guy is different—he's an auxiliary-system soul master, needing your protection, easy to handle.

As for his granddaughter's temperament, Du Gu Bo knows all too well—this little girl is very strong-willed; if she were with the chauvinistic Yu Tianheng, even if she felt wronged, she probably wouldn't come to him to complain.

But Bai Ran is different—if they ever quarrel, Yan Yan will never be at a loss.

"Old geezer, you're saying to my face that I'm easy to handle— aren't you giving me no face?"

Although auxiliary-system soul masters are indeed easy to bully, even a stray dog on the road could kick them twice.

But saying that, I just feel uneasy inside.

Bai Ran: "If I couldn't beat you, I'd definitely treat you to two big pastries."

"Oh dear, you little guy, I'm not trying to make Yan Yan face reality."

Besides, my granddaughter is so outstanding— with me actively playing matchmaker for you two, aren't you happy?

That's true, but if the protagonist were swapped for any other Douluo fanfic, they'd probably have changed faces by now.

But what kind of Douluo Continent is this? The T0 version runs rampant,

You dare to give it, but I don't dare to take it, fearing that afterward you'd turn around and accuse me of forcing you.

"Alright, grandfather, stop messing around."

I only like Brother Tianheng; this little brother, forget it— plus he's the boyfriend my best friend likes, I don't want to be the third wheel.

(Ye Lingling: Ah Qiu, is someone scheming against me behind my back?) "How could we just let it go?"

Besides, what's a third wheel? This is just fair competition.

Du Gu Bo doesn't want to give up.

Such an outstanding little guy and his granddaughter are truly a perfect match.

"Oh geezer, I gave it to Brother Tianheng— how's that, is this reason enough?"

Seeing grandfather still nagging, Du Gu Yan, unable to take it, simply gave up.

Critical hit*1 "What, Yan Yan, you gave that stinky blond Yu Tianheng?"

At that moment, Du Gu Bo felt as if he'd been petrified, his speech stumbling.

"What stinky blond? He's my Brother Tianheng; grandfather, you just don't understand him!"

Critical hit*2 "Alright, alright, alright, Yan Yan, stay put here while I go handle some business."

Du Gu Bo finished speaking, then quickly left the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, heading straight for Tiandou City.

……

The Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well now only had Du Gu Yan and Bai Ran left.

Against the poisonous mist his grandfather set up outside, Du Gu Yan, who possesses the Azure Scale Dragon martial soul, is actually unafraid.

But this is deep in the Sunset Forest; if they ran out and happened to encounter a ten-thousand-year spirit beast, they'd be screwed.

Du Gu Yan cherishes her own life, so she can only silently pray in her heart for Yu Tianheng's safety.

Of course, even if we left Sunset Forest, with Dugu Yan's speed, we still couldn't catch up to Grandfather.

"Sister Yan Yan, have you and Yu Tianheng done that?"

Loving gossip is human nature, especially for those who enjoy drama.

Even though there's gossip to be had, we can't get any of it—it's simply more painful than killing them!

"Holy shit, you little brat, you actually understand this kind of stuff?"

Dugu Yan looked at this little guy with great surprise.

"Hmph, I heard it from a friend."

"Your friend? I think it's just you."

"You little brat, at such a young age not behaving well, knowing so much isn't good."

Dugu Yan said while pulling out two lollipops, and handed one of them to Bai Ran.

"Not Sister Yan Yan, at this time shouldn't you take out a cigar, light it, and then tell me the story between you and Yu Tianheng?"

Seeing Dugu Yan's swift move, Bai Ran thought she'd pull out a pack of Zhonghua cigarettes, but instead it turned out to be lollipops.

"Minors aren't allowed to smoke cigars, and besides, you little brat, I and Tianheng have no story."

"Then Sister Yan Yan, what you said gave was..."

"It's just that I held his hand, and then hugged him a few times."

"By the way, little brat, your hands are soft and squishy, and pinching your little face feels really nice."

"After eating the sister's candy, letting the sister play with you a bit is only fair."
