Douluo: Dragon King's Divine Elegy

Chapter 74 Eternal Dynasty: Long Yeyue, you think I'm being too nice to you? *Slaps twice across the face!*

A whooshing sound came from afar as the rapidly spinning propellers tore through the clouds, the sound fading as they flew towards the towering skyscraper.

At the Heavenly Spirit Tower's exclusive helicopter docking station, the helicopter landed, and after the cabin door opened, several figures slowly walked out.

No one was around to disturb them. But if someone with a keen eye were there, they would surely exclaim in surprise.

This group included not only Ya Li, the Vice Pavilion Master of the Sea God Pavilion of Shrek Academy, but also two councilors of the Spirit Pagoda and the Vice Pavilion Master.

Even the world-renowned master craftsman Zhenhua was there.

On the contrary, Nan Liujing, who initiated a series of events, seemed unremarkable.

"Yali, we await good news," said Qian Gu Qingfeng.

Wearing a light green dress that made her look exceptionally beautiful, Ya Li gave a wry smile: "If it really comes to that, please act quickly. Ming Ge and I will deliberately arrive late."

Leng Yaozhu put her arm around her beloved disciple's shoulder and said in a cold voice, "What if Long Yeyue doesn't fall for it?"

Ya Li shook her head and said, "You all know Elder Long's personality. When she was young, she was liked by both Han Hai Douluo and Elder Bei. At that time, the older generation of experts in the academy also doted on her. People who grow up in a sweet environment act entirely according to their nature. Elder Long is extreme in nature, and she will immediately fly into a rage if she encounters anything that does not go her way. So after I go back and explain the situation, she will definitely not be able to resist coming to the Heavenly Spirit Tower to cause trouble."

Xia Zheng nodded coldly and said, "Alright, after it's done, we can sit down and have a proper talk. This is a promise that Qingfeng and I are making to you and Yunming."

Yali nodded, and then her figure transformed into a stream of light, flying towards Shrek Academy.

As Zhenhua watched the departing light, he sighed, "I never thought Shrek Academy would be in this state today."

Qian Gu Qingfeng said calmly, "Shrek City, as a country within a country, is inherently at odds with the Federation. Moreover, graduates of Shrek Academy have successively entered major important institutions of the Federation to assume key positions, which has caused long-standing resentment among the nobles of the old Sun Moon Empire and the nobles of the early Douluo Continent who sided with the Sun Moon Empire."

"I've received information from within the Federation that the higher-ups in the anti-Shrek faction are using this opportunity to dismantle the Shrek Academy faction members within the Federation. Once public opinion calms down, at least half of the Shrek faction members will likely be purged."

Leng Yaozhu asked curiously, "Why aren't the forces that are close to Shrek Academy helping us?"

Xia Zheng sneered: "Of course they will help, but as they help, the status and resources belonging to the Shrek Academy faction will end up in their pockets."

Leng Yaozhu and Zhenhua raised their eyebrows simultaneously.

Qian Gu Qingfeng said, "Let's go back to the Heavenly Spirit Tower first. I need to tell my father."

As the group walked, Xia Zheng turned back to look at Nan Liujing and said:

"Back then, Long Yeyue slapped your great-grandfather's father. Although it ended with Long Yeyue apologizing under the arrangement of Tianjuan Douluo, that old bitch is really no good. She deliberately spread the news and concealed the process of Tianjuan Douluo's intervention. People from all the top forces thought that she had attacked the Spirit Tower all by herself and left in a carefree manner. Even when Tianjuan Douluo came forward to dispel the rumors, it was to no avail, and the old tower master became a complete joke."

"This thorn has been weighing on my father's heart for many years. You film the scene of him hitting someone later, and then make a deal with the old man. There's a good chance you can get a decent treasure in return."

Nan Liujing's eyes brightened slightly: "I understand."

...

Shrek Academy, Poseidon Pavilion.

Upon learning that Ya Li was bringing Nan Liujing with her, the elders had already gathered together. Besides discussing how to suppress public opinion, they also discussed how to arrange things for Nan Liujing.

To break the deadlock and stabilize the academy's image, Nan Liujing is a crucial element.

In the main seat, Yun Ming closed his eyes to rest, while the two brothers, Chi Long and Chi Long Douluo, communicated with each other using their soul power. They were elders who listened to Yun Ming.

Long Yeyue remained silent, letting the other elders talk amongst themselves.

But within the vast Sea God Pavilion, there is a powerful figure who, though not an elder, is able to reside within it.

Zang Xin, the Amorous Douluo, is the Deputy Hall Master of the Douluo Hall of the Tang Sect.

Zang Xin remained calm; his purpose in coming was simple.

He was well aware of Long Yeyue's personality; he was sure that once that kid Nan Liujing arrived, this once-powerful Light and Dark Douluo would cause trouble.

Yun Ming might be hesitant to get entangled with the Light and Dark Douluo due to his status, but he could still act as a dissuader. He might even be able to use this opportunity to recruit Nan Liujing into the Tang Sect, achieving two goals at once.

hum~
Soft light gathered from in front of the Sea God Pavilion, transforming into Yali's tall and beautiful figure.

In an instant, everyone looked over, and Yun Ming also opened his eyes.

Long Yeyue frowned and said in a deep voice, "Yali, where is that kid?"

The elders looked puzzled, as they didn't see anyone with Yali.

Ya Li walked straight into the pavilion and sat down on a chair next to Yun Ming. Her expression was solemn as she said, "The divine craftsman Zhen Hua took that child to the Spirit Pagoda."

Upon hearing this, the elders stared at each other in disbelief.

Long Yeyue's voice suddenly became shrill: "You went to the Spirit Pagoda?"

Zang Xin suddenly felt the atmosphere in the pavilion become somewhat tense. Sure enough, he heard Long Yeyue almost interrogate him: "What are you doing at the Spirit Pagoda?"

Ya Li glanced at Yun Ming.

Yun Ming (in his actor form) said, "Speak freely."

Ya Li nodded slightly and sighed, "Zhen Hua was worried that the academy would harm the child, so he chose the Spirit Pagoda as a third-party witness."

"If we want that child to step forward and ease the public pressure on the academy, we must go to the Spirit Pagoda and discuss the matter in the presence of the powerful figures there."

"Bastard!"

A cold glint flashed in Long Yeyue's eyes, and her withered hand slammed out, landing on the heavy long table made of thousand-year-old purple cloud wood. With a crack, the entire long table suddenly shattered, and the black and white intertwined soul power ripples almost tore through space.

Yun Ming remained calm, and with a slight flick of his left hand, an invisible force spread out, enveloping the flying wood chips and simultaneously repairing the shattered spatial cracks.

"Let the Spirit Pagoda act as a third-party witness? Isn't this just letting the Spirit Pagoda watch our show?" Long Yeyue suddenly stood up, and a terrifying soul power pressure swept over, causing the entire Sea God Pavilion to tremble.

"Since he won't come, I'll go and invite him myself!"

As soon as the words were spoken, everyone felt a thick black and white light surrounding them, as if two dragon shadows were whispering and brushing past. When they recovered, Long Yeyue was no longer in the pavilion.

Already furious from the online attacks against Shrek Academy over the past few days, Long Yeyue's personality, just as Ya Li and Qian Gu Qingfeng had said, was too extreme.

In the past, there were older generations and peers who could dissuade her, but now, there is no one in the entire Shrek Academy with a higher seniority than her.

"Mr. Long!"

When everyone had disappeared, the elders finally realized what had happened and all looked at Yun Ming.

Of all the members of Shrek Academy, only Yun Ming could hold Long Yeyue back.

“Brother Yun,” Zang Xin said, frowning.

Yun Ming said solemnly, "Li'er, you stay and guard the Sea God Pavilion. Brother Zang, come with me to the Heavenly Spirit Tower."

"Okay," Ya Li and Zang Xin replied simultaneously.

In his enraged state, the Limit Douluo moved at an incredible speed. In less than half a minute, a loud cracking sound rang out, startling the staff inside the Heavenly Spirit Tower and even the residents in the surrounding area.

A crack appeared in the sky, from which floated a hunched figure. With a gloomy expression, she held a scepter and gently tapped it against the void. The space instantly shattered, with cracks as dense as a spider web spreading everywhere.

The sky was overcast, and heavy, swirling clouds quickly filled the sky, driving away the warm sunshine that had been shining on the earth. The area within a radius of dozens of miles seemed to have sunk into the deep sea, and the light became extremely dim.

"Roar." From within the dark clouds, a dragon's roar, a mixture of light and darkness, resounded. The pressure of a Limit Douluo caused the heavens and earth to tremble, enveloping the Heavenly Spirit Tower.

hum~
Sensing the fluctuations that threatened the safety of the building, the multicolored soul-guiding shield on the walls of the Heavenly Spirit Tower quickly activated and unfolded, resembling a divine pillar under the dark sky, attracting the attention of countless people.

"Don't cause panic among the surrounding residents. If you have anything to say, just go up the tower." A deep, aged male voice came from inside the Heavenly Spirit Tower. The next moment, a beam of light burst forth at the top of the tower, as if an entrance had materialized.

"Eternal Legacy." Long Yeyue raised an eyebrow, her confidence surging instantly, and she flashed into the light.

Instantly, the sunlight pierced through the dark clouds, and the earth-shaking pressure receded like a tide, but it still caused panic among the residents in the vicinity of the Heavenly Spirit Tower.

Similar scenarios have occurred before, but almost all of them involve evil spirit masters.

The 30,000 city defense troops stationed in Shrek City were immediately alerted. This was Shrek Academy's private army, which included a full 5,000 mech pilots.

This is the maximum number the federal government is forced to tolerate.

Whoosh.

Two streaks of light rushed over; it was Yun Ming and Zang Xin.

From a great distance, they saw the eternal Qingfeng and the eternal Dongfeng, standing with their hands behind their backs on the platform outside the main gate of the Heavenly Spirit Tower.

With a flash, the two landed on the ground.

"Qian Gu Qing Feng, where is Elder Long?" Zang Xin asked in a deep voice. The oppressive aura of a Limit Douluo still lingered in the air.

Qian Gu Qingfeng said indifferently, "As soon as Guang An Douluo arrived, he released his ultimate pressure, causing panic among the residents within dozens of miles. My father told her to stop and is currently catching up with old friends inside the tower."

"Since you're all here, let's go up together."

With that, the two brothers turned and walked into the Spirit Pagoda.

"Brother Yun." Zang Xin sensed something was wrong, but couldn't pinpoint the reason.

Yun Ming calmly said, "It's alright. You know Elder Long's strength. He'll be fine. Let's go in with them."

Zang Xin had no choice but to nod, and the two immediately followed.

the other side.

As she rushed into the light, Long Yeyue's expression changed slightly after she saw her surroundings clearly. She no longer possessed the overwhelming power she had displayed outside the Heavenly Spirit Tower.

She looked up and around. Before her eyes was a vast wilderness, as if she had entered a world of sand and dust. Stone pillars rose from the ground, yellow sand swirled, and the biting wind carried a strange and fierce force. Those who were not strong enough would probably be shattered by the wind in a very short time.

"Even after Brother Bei's death, you still haven't restrained your temper." A faint voice came.

Long Yeyue looked in the direction of the sound and saw a majestic old man standing by the clear lake in an oasis not far away.

Aside from his muscular physique, he appeared unremarkable. However, the fluctuations within half a meter of his body, where space gradually collapsed and reformed, revealed his profound cultivation, indicating that he had definitely reached the highest level of the Limit Douluo, the Quasi-God level!
Long Yeyue's expression turned solemn: "The highest level of the Heavenly Spirit Tower connects to a small world?"

Qian Gu Die Ting offered no explanation, but simply reached out and shook hands with someone in the air.

Long Yeyue instantly became alert.

Suddenly, the world seemed to turn into chaos and began to darken rapidly. A terrifying sandstorm swept through, its hidden power like the raging shadows of a club, and towering stone pillars shattered with a deafening roar.

The next moment, countless mountain-like pressures descended, transforming into a colossal staff that suppressed the heavens, emitting a muffled, mournful roar. Long Yeyue's body trembled, and the terrifying dual dragon soul power within her surged forth, with two holy dragon images, one black and one white, protecting her body in an attempt to resist the pressure.

boom!
With a deafening roar, the space within a radius of tens of kilometers centered on Long Yeyue exploded violently. The pitch-black alternate dimension resembled an abyss, exuding a terrifying suction force, as if it wanted to swallow everything.

"Qian Gu Die Ting, do you want to start a war with Shrek Academy?" Long Ye Yue's body trembled as she roared in a shrill voice. Her soul power surged out continuously, intertwining with black and white light. However, even with her soul power operating at its limit, she could only ensure the safety of her body and could not break through the pressure.

"Start a war?" Qian Gu Die Ting's voice was deep and resonant, like a thunderclap. With each step he took, space itself twisted and cracked. The astonishing pressure intensified.

Swish!
Just as Long Yeyue's eyes widened in anger, suddenly, Qian Gu Die Ting's figure flashed, and his heavy palm swung out fiercely.

Snapped!
A crisp, melodious sound rang out, and Long Yeyue's angry expression froze. His ferocious old face was slapped to the side, and several teeth flew out before being swallowed by the suction force of the void.

Fresh blood trickled down from the corner of his lips.

Long Yeyue's eyes were glazed over. Having reached the Limit Douluo level, the strength of her body was beyond doubt. When Qian Gu Die Ting slapped her, he didn't intend to kill her, so the burning pain and the electric-like numbness became her deepest physical sensations.

Trembling, Long Yeyue was trembling all over. How many years had it been?
She has lived for over two hundred years, and she has always been the one who hits others, never the other way around.

The humiliation of a slap is clearly greater than its lethality.

Long Yeyue slowly turned her head, staring at Qian Gu Dieting with extremely venomous eyes, "You dare to hit me? You...you actually dare..."

What greeted Long Yeyue was not the echo of Qian Gu Die Ting, but another heavy palm. When it swung, the space itself cracked open, and the force was obviously greater than before.

As his palm touched the withered face, the other half of Long Yeyue's old face instantly collapsed, scattering teeth once again.

That venomous gaze, slightly dazed, was mixed with a hint of clarity!

He was clearly woken up by the beating.

Looking at the old scoundrel whose face was half sunken, Qian Gu Die Ting sneered, "If it weren't for Brother Bei's sake back then, I would have torn you to pieces for that slap you gave me."

"With two Sacred Dragon Martial Souls, you couldn't even break through to the Limit Douluo level. You were a complete waste. In the end, it was Brother Bei who helped you advance. Otherwise, you could have lived for several more years."

Long Yeyue couldn't hear anything at all; her eardrums were ruptured and blood was seeping out.

In fact, Shrek Academy and Spirit Pagoda did have the opportunity to enter a honeymoon period. Back then, Qian Gu Die Ting and Tian Juan Douluo went through countless dangers together and were practically brothers who had risked their lives for each other.

After Qian Gu Die Ting took control of the Spirit Pagoda, he also extended an olive branch to Shrek Academy, and the two forces entered a period of peace that was rare in thousands of years.

It wasn't until Long Yeyue's slap that the chance for Shrek Academy and the Spirit Pagoda to mend their relationship was completely shattered.

Why did that slap happen?

It's very simple. It's because when Qian Gu Die Ting and Tian Juan Douluo were drinking, he stood up for his brother and cursed Chen Xin Jie a few times.

And so, Long Yeyue got angry, and later simply went to the Heavenly Spirit Tower, and in front of many councilors of the Spirit Transmission Tower, she slapped him across the face.

This was what Tianjuan Douluo told Qian Gu Dieting before his death. Before that, Qian Gu Dieting had no idea how he had offended this despicable person.

With a deep exhale, Qian Gu Die Ting released all the resentment that had been building up inside him, feeling refreshed and as if his soul had been elevated. The quasi-god realm that had been delayed for thirty years due to his battle with Yun Ming was now completely stable, and he had even made some progress.

"That was satisfying. It's a pity there wasn't much time, otherwise I would have slapped you a few more times!" Qian Gu Die Ting pointed his fingertip, and the Law of Unyielding condensed and was engraved on Long Ye Yue's brow.

Under the Unyielding Law, unless Long Yeyue finds someone willing to sacrifice for her and uses the quasi-god level martial soul origin to erase the law imprint, her cultivation will remain at the ordinary Title Douluo level for the next ten years.

At this level, not even the slightest breeze could stir him up. Of course, Qian Gu Die Ting could guess who this person willingly sacrificed himself for.

"Kid, did you take the picture?" Qian Gu Die Ting looked at the oasis.

Several figures slowly emerged from the bushes that served as cover beside the oasis.

The names were none other than Nan Liujing, Xia Zhengleng, Leng Yaozhu, and Zhenhua.

Nan Liujing was holding the Federation's most advanced camera.

Looking at the unconscious, sunken, and barely recognizable Long Yeyue, Nan Liujing smiled and waved the camera in his hand, "Don't worry, Your Majesty, the filming went very smoothly."

"Hahahaha." Qian Gu Die Ting laughed heartily.

"Father, Yun Ming and Zang Xin are almost at the top floor," Xia Zheng coldly reminded him.

Qian Gu Die Ting's smile vanished, and he immediately waved his hand.

As the power of space spread, everyone left this small world that connected to the top level of the Heavenly Spirit Tower.
