Chapter 146: The Advantages of Being the Behind-the-Scenes Mastermind, Gu Yue Na's Proposal

Yu Tianheng took a deep breath, turned his head, looked at Yu Xiaogang with a blank expression, and slowly spoke.

"Uncle, is this what you said wouldn't trap me? I really want to know now: are you fully aware this is a fire pit and still dragging me in, or do you also not know the true situation?"

"Is it intentional, or accidental?"

Even the stupidest person would wake up after seeing this.

Yu Tianheng was certain he had fallen into a pit; he now only wanted to know whether this uncle of his was deliberately harming him.

Facing his question, Yu Xiaogang's face stiffened; he almost couldn't hold back and blurt out the truth.

Fortunately, his psychological resilience was strong enough; he had long practiced the skill of lying with open eyes, and he used all his wit to fabricate a new lie.

It must be said, Yu Xiaogang is a genuine waste in soul master cultivation, but when it comes to lying and deceiving people, he has never slipped up.

After his round of nonsense and pestering, he actually managed to bluff his way through.

To be precise, it was Yu Xiaogang who used uncle-nephew affection to kidnap Yu Tianheng, making him fully aware of how problematic Shilaike Academy is, yet he ultimately chose to stay.

Yu Tianheng set a final deadline.

If Shilaike Academy cannot achieve good results in the Soul Master Grand Competition, he will definitely withdraw without hesitation.

As for the one-year period needed, he would consider it repayment for Yu Xiaogang's past care and affection.

Upon hearing Yu Tianheng's condition, Flandre beside him hastily swore a poison oath, guaranteeing Shilaike Academy would not disappoint him.

In the Soul Master Grand Competition after one year, even if they cannot win the championship, they will at least make it into the top three.

To keep Yu Tianheng stable and retain this genius from the Blue Electric Tyrant Dragon Clan, Flandre could say anything.

However, to him, whether Shilaike Academy can enter the top three in the Soul Master Grand Competition after a year is not important.

If Yu Tianheng stays at Shilaike for a year and still isn't brainwashed by Flandre, then this dean is simply incapable.

Moreover, Yu Xiaogang's indirect influence on Yu Tianheng, leveraging his uncle status, will make brainwashing him even easier than imagined.

As for whether Yu Tianheng can withstand their brainwashing offensive, that's something nobody can predict.

Actually, brainwashing Yu Tianheng to make him willingly become a member of Shilaike Academy is rather urgent.

After all, once the Blue Electric Tyrant Dragon Clan learns of Yu Tianheng's whereabouts, they will surely come knocking immediately.

Regarding Yu Tianheng following Shilaike Academy to the Star Luo Empire, Yu Xiaogang deliberately gave him no time to notify his family.

Otherwise, the Blue Electric Tyrant Dragon Clan would not only refuse consent, but would also give Yu Xiaogang, Flandre, and others a very painful lesson.

Therefore, they must make Yu Tianheng internally identify as a Shilaike Academy student before the Blue Electric Tyrant Dragon Clan discovers him.

Thinking this through, Flandre and Yu Xiaogang exchanged glances, feeling this is also a considerable challenge for them.

As for Yu Tianheng's matter, Luo Ye doesn't know much; he only knows the other party suddenly left the Tian Dou Royal Academy, and isn't aware that Yu Xiaogang took him away using familial ties.

However, even if he knew, he wouldn't care at all.

Yu Tianheng's life or death is unrelated to Luo Ye; he now only cares about the immortal herbs at the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye.

Luo Ye, by means of writing a diary, acting as the behind-the-scenes mastermind, found his plan to control the owners of the diary copies proceeding very smoothly.

When Luo Ye personally told Gu Yue Na of the preparations, wanting to obtain Dugu Bo's immortal herbs.

Gu Yue Na first suggested simply seizing all the immortal herbs, just like Tang San did in his previous life, as the simplest method.

Anyway, with her strength, she could easily take all the immortal herbs from the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye without anyone knowing.

As expected, Gu Yue Na's proposal was firmly rejected by Luo Ye.

Luo Ye declared he would absolutely not be as shameless as Tang San; even if he greatly desired the immortal herbs, he could not treat Dugu Bo in that way.

Even considering his past-life relationship with Du Gu Yan, he must properly handle his relationship with Dugu Bo.

Because Luo Ye's remarks in the diary had already been seen, Gu Yue Na was not surprised at all; on the contrary, she approved of Luo Ye even more.

However, Gu Yue Na did not want Luo Ye to waste the hard-earned points, not buying what he needed from the Points Mall, but instead wasting them on compensating Dugu Bo.

Thus Gu Yue Na directly proposed that she could extract some Vital Spirit Gold from the Lake of Life in the Star Dou Great Forest and give it to Dugu Bo; the efficacy of Vital Spirit Gold would absolutely easily remove the toxins within Dugu Bo's body.

In this way, they could trade Vital Spirit Gold with Dugu Bo to exchange for those immortal herbs of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye.

Gu Yue Na's proposal indeed somewhat exceeded Luo Ye's expectations; he had not previously considered trading with Dugu Bo in this manner.

However, this also let Luo Ye more deeply realize how great the benefits are of being a behind-the-scenes mastermind manipulating everything from the shadows.

Sometimes he doesn't even need to think too much; the owners of the diary copies will voluntarily help him perfect the plan.

Luo Ye also did not reject Gu Yue Na's idea, directly agreeing to it.

After Gu Yue Na obtained the Vital Spirit Gold from the Lake of Life, Luo Ye immediately sought out Du Gu Yan.

Seeing the mysterious Luo Ye before him, Du Gu Yan clearly understood what he wanted, but still pretended ignorance and asked.

"Anything up?"

Luo Ye sized up Du Gu Yan up and down, his expression solemn, and said.

"When I first saw you and fought you in a spirit battle, I faintly sensed that something was off with your body."

"Therefore, I have been observing all this time, wanting to confirm exactly what's going on."

"If I'm not mistaken, the toxin carried by your Blue Phosphorus Snake martial soul can not only harm others, but also harm yourself, right?"

After hearing Luo Ye's words, Du Gu Yan's pupils contracted slightly, and he instinctively exclaimed.

"You can even see that?"

Luo Ye pointed to his own eyes and said.

"Don't forget my martial soul is eyes; observing this naturally comes naturally."

Du Gu Yan, after a moment of silence, spoke in a desolate tone.

"Your observation is correct; my body indeed contains the toxin of the Blue Phosphorus Snake, and I have tried to find a way to remove it, but have never succeeded."

Luo Ye also didn't waste time, directly getting to the point.

"I can help you."
