Douluo: Danheng just want to avoid trouble, Gu Yuena Pursues.-Chapter 232: A Good Bestie, One Blanket

Before the end of the workday, Liu Erlong and the others rushed into the library in a flurry.

Dan Heng was speaking with the Sea God Poseidon when he noticed their anxious expressions and was slightly taken aback.

Liu Erlong and the others also frowned upon seeing the Sea God Poseidon.

There was an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

Poseidon raised his eyes to the sky, naturally recognizing Liu Erlong.

After all, he had just bestowed a divine blessing upon her!

"Mr. Dan Heng, who is he...?" Liu Erlong asked suspiciously.

Dan Heng replied, "He's a friend of mine. You can call him... Bo... Bobo."

"Bobo?" Liu Erlong couldn't help but burst out laughing.

A grown man with a name like that—truly rare!

Poseidon's face twitched; he glared at Dan Heng in annoyance, clearly holding back a lot.

Why did it sound like the name of a dog?

"Mr. Bobo, hello. Since you're a friend of Mr. Dan Heng's, you must be quite exceptional as well," Liu Erlong said generously with a smile.

Poseidon laughed heartily and nodded. "Indeed! Young lady, you have a good eye!"

Liu Erlong blinked. She was almost fifty—how did she become a "young lady" to Poseidon?

But she didn't think much of it. After all, women are never unhappy to be called young.

"Well then, Mr. Bobo, perhaps you can offer me some advice too," Liu Erlong continued.

Dan Heng turned to Zhu Zhuqing. "Did it go smoothly?"

Zhu Zhuqing nodded honestly. "Very smoothly, Teacher. I obtained the soul ring of a ten-thousand-year Green Shadow Cang Wolf."

Dan Heng gave a small nod. Seeing no abnormalities, he did not pursue the matter further.

Huo Wu, on the other hand, stared blankly at Poseidon. There was something strangely familiar about his face.

Especially since he was a friend of Mr. Dan Heng's—

How could he be an ordinary person?

And although Poseidon had completely concealed his divinity, his long-standing position as a god left him with an indescribable aura.

"Sigh! Mr. Dan Heng, you've got to help me! I was totally screwed over by that rotten god!" Liu Erlong wailed dramatically.

"???" Poseidon's mouth twitched hard.

What did she just call him?

Dan Heng smiled wryly. "What happened, Dean Liu?"

Liu Erlong clenched her teeth. "That damned god actually twisted my martial soul's attribute from fire to water! I used to be a fire dragon, now I'm a water dragon!"

"All these years, I've honed my combat skills based on fire, and all my soul rings are fire-aligned. Now that bastard changed me to water, and my soul skills are all messed up!"

The more she spoke, the more resentful she became. She wanted nothing more than to slap Poseidon across the face!

"..."

Poseidon's expression turned strange; he blinked several times.

He had done something rather outrageous...

Dan Heng scratched his face. Even he, normally composed, couldn't help but want to laugh.

"Dean Liu, that god favored you. No need for so much resentment. We can work on resolving this."

Liu Erlong sighed. "Who wants the favor of that damned god? Mr. Dan Heng, what should I do?"

She plopped down on the front desk, resting her chin on her hands. Her stunning face was filled with grievance.

Zhu Zhuqing and the others kept silent. They all understood how frustrated Liu Erlong must be right now.

Dan Heng glanced at Poseidon and said:

"Dean Liu, what do you want to do? Try to revert your martial soul back to its original attribute, or adapt to it—and then we'll work on converting your soul rings?"

Poseidon interjected:

"Also, Dean Liu, I just saw it myself. That wise, mighty, and unmatched god clearly thinks very highly of you! He must have something else planned for you. Maybe it's worth waiting to see what comes next?"

"He's a damn joke of a mighty god!" Liu Erlong rolled her eyes.

Poseidon's face turned red and then pale.

Dan Heng couldn't hold back his amusement and asked, "So, what's your decision, Dean Liu?"

Liu Erlong hesitated, then asked, "Mr. Dan Heng, what do you think I should choose?"

Her gaze burned into Dan Heng, revealing her shrewdness.

Making her own choice might miss the mark, but if Dan Heng advised her, it was guaranteed to be the best option!

Dan Heng gave a thoughtful hum and said:

"If it were up to me, I'd choose the water dragon. You're still young, and you have at least a century or two ahead. Adjusting to a new martial soul attribute isn't that hard. Plus, since that god favors you, and your martial soul shows it, other factions will have to show you respect."

"Bobo and I can help you improve your soul rings... But most of the work still depends on your own training."

After speaking, Dan Heng looked at Poseidon.

Poseidon immediately said, "Exactly! Dan Heng is right. That god must have incredible foresight. You can't possibly grasp his wisdom. Following his lead is the best path."

Poseidon puffed up his chest, though inwardly, he was quite frustrated.

To think a dignified Sea God was getting insulted by Liu Erlong like this!

Liu Erlong thought for a moment and smiled. "That so-called god—if he really is that great, I'll do whatever he wants. But right now, I trust Mr. Dan Heng more!"

"Since Mr. Dan Heng suggests the water dragon, that's what I'll choose!"

Her expression was serious.

Upon reflection, it made sense.

If she hadn't received Poseidon's blessing, she'd probably never rise above Title Douluo.

Protect her clan? Maybe not even that.

But now that a god had clearly shown her favor, who would dare bully the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan?

Especially since he had directly named the Spirit Hall!

Poseidon pursed his lips. From the look in Liu Erlong's eyes, it was clear her trust was entirely in Dan Heng—

Not the god himself!

"Mr. Dan Heng, I'll be counting on you! Also, Zhuqing managed to absorb a 15,000-year soul ring. Doesn't that mean her fifth ring might reach 30–50,000 years? Maybe she'll even absorb 100,000-year soul rings as a Soul Sage!"

Liu Erlong continued enthusiastically.

"Hm?"

Dan Heng frowned and looked at Zhu Zhuqing.

He had clearly prepared an 11,000-year soul ring. When did it become 15,000?

Poseidon looked at Zhu Zhuqing in surprise. "This little girl may be the first in tens of thousands of years to do that!"

"!!!"

Zhu Zhuqing was instantly stunned.

Wait—Dean Liu, your problem was solved, why'd you throw me under the bus!?

She didn't dare look at Dan Heng and kept her head down in silence.

She looked like she knew she was in trouble and was ready for punishment.

"...," Dan Heng stared at Zhu Zhuqing, momentarily unsure.

This child had always been obedient—how should he punish her?

Scold her? He wasn't the type.

Spank her? She was too old for that now; it probably wouldn't work.

He'd have to ask someone else for advice later...

Heaven Dou Imperial Palace

Emperor Xue Ye remained in a daze.

Tang Yuehua frowned slightly, joy flashing in her eyes.

The god had clearly said, "Let Spirit Hall watch itself!"

What kind of effect would those words have?

At the very least, Spirit Hall would no longer dare act recklessly.

That meant far less pressure on the three upper sects.

"That was... that was our Heaven Dou Empire's national treasure! How could it be given away like that?"

"Lord God! He should've picked someone from our royal family as the successor!"

Emperor Xue Ye beat his chest in anguish, nearly dying of regret.

He had been just one step away from forging ties with the divine—but the god hadn't even looked his way.

As someone who dreamed of ruling Heaven Dou forever, watching the chance at immortality slip away was maddening!

He even forgot Tang Yuehua standing beside him!

"Lord God!!!"

"Heaven Dou Empire is willing to serve you, worship you! Please show us more miracles!"

He nearly cried as he spoke.

Tang Yuehua watched coldly, not even bothering to respond.

Now that Haotian Sect had allied with Xue Beng, they only maintained polite distance from Xue Ye.

"The god looked toward Blue Tyrant Academy... Could he be connected to Mr. Dan Heng?" Tang Yuehua guessed.

That mysterious and unpredictable Mr. Dan Heng—no matter what happened, her thoughts always turned to him!

Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect

Ning Fengzhi and the others got up from the ground.

Bone Douluo laughed. "That god said, 'Let Spirit Hall watch itself!'—maybe even he disapproves of what they're doing!"

"That's right! Hopefully he'll directly punish them with divine retribution!"

"Damn Spirit Hall, corrupt and tyrannical, should've been destroyed long ago!"

The sect's higher-ups cursed Spirit Hall one after another.

Ning Fengzhi, meanwhile, looked in the direction of Blue Tyrant Academy.

Just like Tang Yuehua, he had the same suspicion.

Even without seeing it for himself, he still felt this had something to do with Mr. Dan Heng.

Suddenly, a soul master came running.

"Great news! Truly great news!"

"What great news? Calm down! What sort of behavior is this!?"

An elder scolded sternly.

The soul master quickly reined in his excitement and, suppressing his emotions, said, "We found Sword Douluo! Sword Douluo is still alive!"

"What?!"

Ning Fengzhi and the others were all thrilled.

Sword Douluo had risked his life to protect the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan and was thought to have perished. Now, there was finally news of him.

"Quick, take us to him!"

Ning Fengzhi urged anxiously.

A god's descent? That was nothing compared to the importance of Sword Douluo!

In Spirit Hall.

Bibi Dong's figure flashed as she returned to her seat. Just now, she had been startled into kneeling by Sea God Poseidon's words—"take care of yourself."

After all, she was guilty inside.

She was about to launch a war that would engulf the entire Douluo Continent in chaos.

In her mind, the Rakshasa God mocked her.

"Bibi Dong, you've changed so much! The old you would never be this scared!"

"Shut up!" Bibi Dong snapped in frustration and shame.

Just then, an announcement came from outside.

It was Chrysanthemum Douluo and the others returning to report.

Bibi Dong took a deep breath and said, "Come in."

The large doors opened, and Chrysanthemum Douluo and four others entered and gave their report.

"...Your Holiness, we successfully completed the soul ring hunt."

Chrysanthemum Douluo reported briefly, leaving out the details.

"That's all?" Bibi Dong raised an eyebrow, clearly impatient.

Chrysanthemum Douluo's heart skipped a beat. Fearing she was displeased at the omission, he quickly added details about their encounter with Blue Tyrant Academy.

He originally planned to hide Zhu Zhuqing's situation.

But Hu Liena exposed it, saying, "Teacher, let's stop calling ourselves the Golden Generation—it's embarrassing. We can't even compare to that girl..."

"Hm?" Bibi Dong frowned slightly and looked at Chrysanthemum Douluo in surprise.

"Is there really such a talented soul master?"

"Yes..." Chrysanthemum Douluo silently prayed that Bibi Dong wouldn't act against Zhu Zhuqing.

At the same time, Gu Yuena finally returned home.

After knocking for a long time, Bi Ji opened the door. Her beautiful face was pale, clearly shaken.

The descent of a god—just one glance, and she and Zi Ji, both fierce beasts, would be exposed.

If things went wrong, they could be destroyed on a whim!

"Mist—Sister, you're back? No, um..."

Bi Ji was first overjoyed, then flustered. She pointed to the sky, hinting a god had just appeared.

Gu Yuena smiled slightly and gently patted Bi Ji's shoulder.

"Relax. As long as I don't want them to find me, no one can."

Gu Yuena was the Silver Dragon King, inheritor of the Dragon God's elemental divinity.

Though the Sea God was strong, his divine rank was still below hers!

Bi Ji gave an awkward smile. "Sister, it's good that you're back..."

Gu Yuena walked into the courtyard and asked curiously, "Where's Zi Ji?"

Bi Ji pointed to the house. "She's still in the room."

"Hm?"

Gu Yuena grew curious and entered Bi Ji and Zi Ji's room.

As soon as she stepped in, she saw a lump on the bed—someone hiding under the blanket, trembling slightly.

Gu Yuena glanced over and smirked.

That troublesome little she-dragon was always up to something!

Bi Ji quickly stepped forward and pulled back the blanket. "Enough, Zi Ji, everything's fine now. Sister..."

"Calling her sister won't help! Who knows if you've been subdued by the god already! O mighty god, if you're going to take someone, take her! I've been well-behaved here! I even have a man! I'm so gentle and domestic—raising children, caring for my husband..."

Zi Ji babbled shamelessly.

Gu Yuena's beautiful face froze instantly. Raising children? A husband?

Did this damn girl just expose her ambitions?

"Zi Ji! It's your sister who came back!"

Seeing Gu Yuena's darkening expression, Bi Ji quickly lifted the blanket, revealing Zi Ji underneath.

Zi Ji's clothes were messy, and she was curled up, wearing a very familiar white dress...

"Eh?" Bi Ji was stunned.

Gu Yuena was even more amused, asking, "Zi Ji, what's this? You think my dress feels better to wear?"

"!!!"

Zi Ji was instantly dumbfounded, her mouth wide open.

At that moment, she'd rather the god descend than face Gu Yuena's return!

Everything she had just said, the clothes she was wearing... all of it was a death sentence!

"Sister... Sister, this dress... how did it end up on me? Maybe... maybe Bi Ji did it?"

Zi Ji blinked and pointed at Bi Ji.

"Huh?" Bi Ji was speechless.

Sister, you're such a great friend, huh?! (End of Chapter.)
