Chapter 147: Chapter 147: Dugu Bo’s Kneeling, Su Yun’s Refusal
Before even approaching, the voice of Chrysanthemum Douluo could be heard, carrying an unmistakable joy in his tone.
Walking beside Chrysanthemum Douluo, Ghost Douluo Ghost Shadow saw Su Yun's breakthrough to level 50 soul power and his eyes also brightened slightly.
Although he didn't speak, anyone could see his satisfaction and admiration for Su Yun's advancement.
"A Soul King at twelve years old, if this was said in the past, I would never have believed it. To think such a youngster actually exists."
Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan patted Su Yun on the shoulder, chuckling, "I feel you, young man, might indeed become the youngest Titled Douluo in history to surpass Tang Hao."
Su Yun chuckled lightly, "Then, please look forward to it."
"Wow, you're quite bold," Chrysanthemum Douluo expressed slight surprise, feigning a raised eyebrow, "I was just speaking off the cuff."
"No matter what you say, the future's youngest Titled Douluo will definitely be me." Su Yun smiled, then walked away under the watchful eyes of the two level 96 Titled Douluos.
"Hissss—Old ghost, this kid is too arrogant." Yue Guan looked at Su Yun's invincible demeanor, grinding his teeth in frustration.
"Heh—Isn't that exactly why you like this kid?"
"On the surface, he seems very amiable, but his heart is truly proud."
Ghost Douluo watched Su Yun's retreating figure, speaking faintly, "Such a youngster is destined to surpass both of us."
Chrysanthemum Douluo nodded slightly upon hearing this.
Clearly, he agreed with Ghost Douluo's words.
...
After leaving the secret chamber of the Spirit Hall, Su Yun saw Hu Liena and Zhu Zhuqing waiting for him.
Sharing his breakthrough with the two women, both Zhu Zhuqing and Hu Liena's faces lit up with joy.
"Su Yun, brother, if the speed of your soul power cultivation gets out, I'm afraid my brothers would die of jealousy." Hu Liena covered her mouth and laughed.
Before Su Yun's rise, Xie Yue and Yan were considered the strongest among the new generation in the Spirit Hall.
However, since Su Yun's meteoric rise, they had become destined to be the eternal second best within a few years.
Now, they were all fully committed to their cultivation, aiming to surpass Su Yun.
But it seems, they might no longer have a chance.
Zhu Zhuqing was both happy and shocked to see Su Yun had directly broken through to the Soul King level.
In her family in the Star Luo Empire, she had never heard of anyone breaking through to the Soul King realm at the age of twelve!
Even the Dai family had never achieved this.
This was truly terrifying!
Thinking this, Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but feel joy and excitement for Su Yun.
Just as Hu Liena and Zhu Zhuqing were thinking about celebrating properly that evening, a figure just happened to walk in.
Dugu Yan.
"Yan Yan sister, you're here."
Zhu Zhuqing greeted Dugu Yan upon seeing her.
Dugu Yan gave a slight bow to the three of them, then with a serious face said, "Su Yun, something has happened."
Then, Dugu Yan recounted everything that had happened the previous night.
After listening to Dugu Yan, Hu Liena and Zhu Zhuqing looked awkward, their gazes involuntarily drifting towards Su Yun.
Su Yun, the mastermind behind the scenes, also wore a bizarre expression.
Su Yun hadn't expected Yu Xiaogang to act so rashly.
Yu Xiaogang's speculation that Dugu Bo had taken the soul bone had some basis.
After all, in the imperial city, only Dugu Bo urgently needed a soul bone.
Everyone knew Dugu Bo needed a poison attribute soul bone for his granddaughter.
Especially the external soul bone from the Man-faced Demon Spider that appeared at the auction?
But to directly confront Dugu Bo, was it because of the confidence that soul Douluo Yu Luomian gave him?
How did Yu Luomian end up involved with Yu Xiaogang?
Seeing his daughter now with Yu Xiaogang, a so-called waste, and even accompanying him to see Dugu Bo?
Putting aside these doubts, Su Yun was more curious about Dugu Yan still seeing Bai Chenxiang and Bai He, the clan leader of the Agility Clan, in the imperial city!
"It seems the external soul bone attracted quite a few people." Su Yun thought to himself, "If Bai He has come, then what about the leaders of the other three clans, or even Tang Hao?"
Thinking this, Su Yun's eyes suddenly sparkled with insight.
He seemed to have guessed where the eighth-grade Immortal Blue Vine in Yu Xiaogang's hands came from.
"Could it be that Tang Hao has already arrived in Heaven Dou City?"
Thinking this, Su Yun immediately sent out a Spirit Hall spy: "Go check where that student from Shrek Academy named Ah San is."
"Yes."
After the spy left, Su Yun did not hide the truth from Dugu Yan and directly admitted to being the one who had Ghost Douluo take the external soul bone.
"What???"
Dugu Yan was shocked upon hearing it was Su Yun's doing, her mind filled with question marks.
Her green eyes also showed an unexpected look.
But after thinking about it, if it was Su Yun's doing, it seemed not wrong at all.
Originally, Su Yun was displeased with Shrek Academy, so how could he easily sell the external soul bone to Shrek Academy?
At this moment, Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo also came over, learning about the previous night's events from Hu Liena.
Both were surprised.
"Alright, we'll know the situation once we get to the scene."
With a wave of his hand, Su Yun, led by Dugu Yan, and the group soon arrived at Sunset Forest.
Upon entering the medicinal garden, they immediately saw Dugu Bo.
"Dugu senior."
Su Yun greeted Dugu Bo with a bow.
This was his first formal meeting with the other party since arriving at the imperial city.
"Su Yun!"
Seeing Su Yun, Dugu Bo was naturally very pleased.
This time, Dugu Yan returned not only with improved soul power but also with the toxins in her body effectively controlled, significantly reducing the likelihood of toxin outbreaks.
All this was thanks to Su Yun.
"Hm? You've broken through to level 50?!" Dugu Bo, with his keen eyes, noticed the freshly advanced aura around Su Yun and deduced that the latter had broken through to the Soul King realm.
"Ha ha, senior Dugu indeed has an exceptional eye."
Su Yun chuckled, "But my breakthrough was possible thanks to the eighth-grade Immortal Blue Vine that Yu Xiaogang and the others had provided."
Immortal Blue Vine?
Dugu Bo was initially stunned, then he realized.
So, the external soul bone auctioned was actually consigned by Su Yun!
He inwardly lamented the waste.
Such a soul bone was not only bought by Yu Xiaogang but also lost by him, truly a waste.
Seeing Dugu Bo's reaction, Su Yun smiled and glanced at Ghost Douluo.
Then, with slight hesitation, Ghost Douluo took out a box from his bosom and tossed it to Dugu Bo.
Dugu Bo was startled again.
At Su Yun's gesture, he opened the box and found, lying inside, a soul bone!
And it was the very external soul bone from the auction!
Dugu Yan, seeing this scene, was also stunned!
Even Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo couldn't help but sigh at Su Yun's ease of gifting an external soul bone to Dugu Bo, thinking the young man was squandering wealth.
However, this indeed was a way to win hearts.
External soul bones are indeed rare.
But loyal Titled Douluos are even rarer!
Dugu Bo, looking at the soul bone in his hands, instantly understood Su Yun's intention, and thus he kneeled on one knee, his tone exceedingly solemn: "From today onwards, I, Dugu Bo, whether in life or death, belong to you, Su Yun."
Kneeling on one knee was Dugu Bo's last dignity as a Titled Douluo.
The use of "Your Highness" further signified his expectations for Su Yun's future path.
Even Hu Liena, standing by, found nothing inappropriate in Dugu Bo's address.
She had a premonition that the next Pope of the Spirit Hall would likely be her junior brother, Su Yun!
Su Yun immediately helped Dugu Bo up, chuckling, "Senior Dugu, this soul bone was actually intended for Yan Yan sister."
"It just so happened that the target of this theft was Yu Xiaogang."
Hearing this, Dugu Bo laughed heartily, "Hahaha, so it is. It seems Yu Xiaogang did come to the right person last night. Now, after all the twists and turns, the soul bone has ended up in my hands again."
"Su Yun, Su Yun, I really don't know how to thank you."
Suddenly, Hu Liena spoke, "Senior Dugu, I feel that our junior brother Su Yun and your granddaughter are quite fated. Why not..."
"Good!"
Before Hu Liena could finish, Dugu Yan's face changed, and before she could react, Dugu Bo immediately responded, "Miss Hu Liena's words are well-spoken. I'm now penniless, with only a granddaughter of any value."
He looked at Su Yun, seriously saying, "Su Yun, why not I 'sell' my granddaughter to you as something valuable, and you can take care of her from now on."
Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo, seeing Dugu Bo's theatric demeanor, couldn't help but frown.
Was this old guy really treating others as fools?
Clutching onto a twelve-year-old Soul King!
If they managed to hold onto him, wouldn't that be securing a golden turtle son-in-law?!
Hearing Dugu Bo's words, Su Yun then looked towards Dugu Yan.
Dugu Yan immediately widened her eyes, shaking her head, "It's not okay, grandfather. I and junior brother have such a big age difference."
"What's not okay?" Dugu Bo pretended to be stern, pointing at Hu Liena, "Miss Hu Liena here is bound to be with Su Yun sooner or later."
"If she's not afraid, what are you afraid of?"
"It's better than being unwanted in the future."
Dugu Bo's words left Hu Liena speechless.
She awkwardly looked towards the two grandfathers, finding them snickering at her.
Then, she looked at Zhu Zhuqing, who seemed indifferent.
The farce continued for a while before gradually ending.
In the end, the matter between Su Yun and Dugu Yan remained unresolved.
