Chapter 72 An Olive Branch from Chrysanthemum Demon Douluo
"I've heard about this too. There's a story circulating in Shrek Academy about Liu Erlong being humiliated by a demonic dragon. Could her martial soul evolution be related to that?"
Hu Liena couldn't help but ask, as she had heard many rumors about the demonic dragon these days, and it was said that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was also destroyed by it.
"A demonic dragon?"
Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo exchanged a glance, both seeing the fear in each other's eyes; they had both been defeated by that demonic dragon.
"Hmm? What's wrong, Grandpa Kiku or Grandpa Ghost?"
"It's nothing, Nana, let's go."
"Um!"
Inside the council hall, Liu Erlong sat alone in the main seat, a hint of melancholy in his eyes.
"Since that day, the Crown Prince has been demoted and it is unknown when he will be able to return."
She still felt grateful to Crown Prince Xue Qinghe, as well as to the owner of Yuexuan, who had spoken up for her.
"Who goes there!"
Liu Erlong's eyes narrowed, and he immediately threw a fireball towards the corner of the wall.
boom--
The wall shattered, and three figures emerged from the smoke and dust.
"As expected of a divine beast martial soul, such domineering power."
Chrysanthemum Douluo's soft, feminine voice slowly rang out, instantly putting Liu Erlong on high alert.
"Don't be nervous. Although you were once enemies with the Spirit Hall, that's all in the past. Now that you've left Shrek Academy, we can certainly be friends."
"Friends? And you guys?"
Liu Erlong scoffed. Yu Xiaogang was no good, and the Spirit Hall wasn't much better.
"You don't need to be so hostile towards us. Although you are already a Soul Douluo, if the two of us wanted to fight, either of us could easily subdue you. The reason we haven't fought is because we want to invite you to join the Spirit Hall."
Chrysanthemum Douluo sized up Liu Erlong. This woman was a genuine level 89 Soul Douluo, and her strength was probably comparable to some Title Douluos. If only he and Ghostly Demon were to take her down, it might not be easy.
"As you know, the situation is different now. Someone on the continent has become a god, and this person does not belong to any of the seven major sects, two major empires, or the Spirit Hall. The existing pattern on the continent is destined to be broken. Our Spirit Hall is recruiting talents in the hope that all Title Douluos can unite as one to resist that unseen demon god."
"If you agree, your status will not be lower than ours."
"Foolishness. God is God. Look up at the sky. You think you can defeat the gods just by having more people? Then restore the sky to its original state first."
Liu Erlong looked disdainful. The idea that all Title Douluos were united as one was utterly ridiculous.
"Liu Erlong, how could you possibly imagine the power of the Spirit Hall? How do you know that our ancient power, the Spirit Hall, has never produced a god?"
Ghostly eyes turned cold; this Liu Erlong was truly foolish.
"Perhaps there were once, but now I only know that there is one demon god in the world, as for others... I have never heard of them."
Liu Erlong shook her head slightly. She didn't want to provoke any gods or join any Spirit Hall.
"Alright, you say you've never heard of it? But once the Spirit Hall defeats the Demon God, you won't get such good treatment if you want to join."
Seeing that she had no intention of changing her mind, Chrysanthemum Douluo's expression also turned rather unpleasant.
"Thank you for your kind offer, but I really have no interest in these things right now."
Liu Erlong refused again. She was already quite content living in Tiandou City. After the people from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School left, the Tiandou Empire lost a powerful ally and was currently lacking a Title Douluo to oversee it. Moreover, there was no news of Poison Douluo. Her rise to power quickly received strong support from the royal family.
"Senior Liu Erlong, even if our Spirit Hall could help you take revenge, you still wouldn't join us?"
If Hu Liena speaks up now, it's unlikely that any force will give up on winning over Liu Erlong.
"How come you were able to kill it?"
Liu Erlong's expression shifted slightly as he looked at Hu Liena.
"There is no trace of the dragon now. If you join us, we can prioritize avenging you."
Hu Liena's face was full of sincerity.
"revenge?"
Upon hearing this word, Liu Erlong couldn't help but chuckle. What revenge?
It's true that the Demon Dragon forced her first, but later he slaughtered the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School to vent her anger, and made her see Yu Xiaogang's true colors. He helped her break free and even qualified her to become a Title Douluo. In a way, he can be considered her benefactor.
Furthermore, to seek revenge, one must have the strength to do so.
"If my information is correct, Pope Bibi Dong of the Spirit Hall led several Title Douluos in battle against the Demonic Dragon, but suffered a crushing defeat. Apart from her, all the Title Douluos were seriously injured, right?"
"How did you know?"
Chrysanthemum Douluo's expression became interesting. This matter was considered top secret in the Spirit Hall. Where did Liu Erlong get this information from?
"There are no secrets in this world. I naturally have my own ways of knowing things. You simply don't have the ability to avenge me."
Liu Erlong remained calm, as if she were talking about something that had nothing to do with her.
"I don't need you to help me get revenge. You should mind your own business first."
"It is said that Liu Erlong, one of the Golden Iron Triangle members, has a fiery temper and acts impulsively. However, meeting him today is completely different from the rumors, which is quite impressive."
A strange light flickered in Chrysanthemum Douluo's eyes.
"Since she doesn't want to join, let's leave. She'll regret it later."
"Um."
The three of them disappeared from Liu Erlong's sight in the blink of an eye.
"I never imagined that I would one day receive an olive branch from the Spirit Hall."
Liu Erlong shook his head slightly. Right now, the most important thing is to break through to the Title Douluo level, so that he can have a little more power to protect himself.
In a small, unnamed town in the province of Fasno.
"Feng Zhi, we've searched all the vassal kingdoms of the Heavenly Dou Empire, but there's no trace of Xue Qinghe. What should we do next?"
Sword Douluo Chen Xin felt a headache coming on. The Heaven Dou Empire was so vast that finding someone was like finding a needle in a haystack.
"If he's not in the vassal kingdom, where could he be? Could that old scoundrel Xueye have hidden him away?"
Ning Fengzhi frowned. His daughter had been kidnapped by the demonic dragon, and his good disciple Xue Qinghe had also disappeared. Xue Qinghe had betrayed his own people and had to pay the price. Perhaps he could find out the demonic dragon's weakness and whereabouts from him.
"Since Xue Ye wouldn't dare to be our enemy, Xue Qinghe must not be in Tian Dou City. Since there's no trace of him in the vassal kingdoms, could he have gone to the Star Luo Empire?"
"Probably not. Xue Qinghe is always cautious and wouldn't risk going to the Star Luo Empire. Besides, I've already contacted Rongrong's friend Dai Mubai, who is keeping an eye on the Star Luo Empire. I'm certain Xue Qinghe hasn't been there."
Ning Fengzhi shook his head, a hint of icy coldness in his eyes. Anyone who dared to collude with the Demon Dragon to destroy his Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, he wanted to watch Xue Qinghe be torn to pieces with his own eyes.
