Douluo: Danheng just want to avoid trouble, Gu Yuena Pursues.-Chapter 123: Just a Weakling

Liu Erlong was feeling triumphant. So what if they had lost this time? As long as Mr. Danheng continued to guide them, the Blue Tyrant Battle Team would surely win in the future!

Yu Tianheng smiled and didn't ask further. Instead, he said, "Aunt, shall we head back now?"

Liu Erlong waved her hand dismissively, signaling for the Huangdou Battle Team members to leave.

As soon as they left, Titan and the others gathered around with smiles on their faces.

Taino walked up to Tailong, slapped him on the shoulder, and laughed heartily. "You brat! You performed well and didn't embarrass your old man!"

"Of course! This was the strategy taught to us by Mr. Dan—uh, Teacher Gu. Of course, it worked!" Tailong was just as proud. In his heart, Danheng was his chosen master.

The stronger Danheng was, the prouder he felt to follow him.

And since Gu Yuena was Danheng's wife, he held deep respect for her as well.

Tainou grinned at his son. "You brat! Anyway, all of you did great!"

Titan, on the other hand, was very perceptive. From Liu Erlong and Tailong's words, he could tell that this victory was largely thanks to Danheng.

A mere librarian who had married a stunning beauty...

Someone whom the Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect personally valued, and who was significant enough for the granddaughter of Poison Douluo to be sent as a messenger...

Who would dare call such a man ordinary?

Moreover, Danheng's strategic guidance had nearly led the Lanba Battle Team to victory over the three strongest members of the Huangdou Battle Team. This alone proved his extraordinary talent.

Titan thought to himself, It seems we truly underestimated him. To have been so reckless in dealing with such a genius...

Manager Ning chuckled. "For a team of ordinary soul masters to push the top three talents of the Tian Dou Royal Soul Master Academy to such a level, I'd say that's quite a rare feat."

"It's truly commendable that Dean Liu was able to cultivate such talents among commoner soul masters."

His words were a subtle compliment.

Liu Erlong merely smiled and waved it off. "You're exaggerating. I'm just a hands-off administrator. Their achievements are mostly due to their own hard work."

After chatting briefly with Titan and Manager Ning, they bid their farewells.

Before leaving, Titan looked at Gu Yuena and clasped his fists. "Lady Gu, I am Titan, the Clan Leader of the Strength Clan. I deeply appreciate Mr. Danheng's help. I will come visit in a few days."

Gu Yuena nodded slightly and smiled. "You are always welcome."

She was pleased to see Danheng forming more connections. The more ties he had, the more he would integrate into the world—and eventually develop ambition.

Of course, she also had a backup plan.

Once the others had left, only Liu Erlong, Gu Yuena, and the members of the Blue Tyrant Battle Team remained.

Liu Erlong's expression immediately darkened. She glared at Tailong and the others and scolded, "Why were you afraid of them? Do you think they would actually kill you? Next time, remember—never back down! Just fight!"

"All right, now get lost! I need to have a talk with your Teacher Gu."

Liu Erlong waved them away with a playful scolding.

The Blue Tyrant Battle Team members quickly ran off.

Just before leaving, Tailong turned back to Gu Yuena and said, "Mistress, you must stay with us!"

Then he hurried off with the others, even closing the door behind him.

Gu Yuena was taken aback. Mistress?

She had only ever been addressed as "Master." This was the first time someone had called her that.

Liu Erlong chuckled. "It's a quirk of the Strength Clan. When they recognize someone's power, they address them as their master."

"I never expected that rascal Tailong to acknowledge Mr. Danheng as his master. What a surprise."

Liu Erlong found it odd. Danheng was just an ordinary person, so why would someone like Tailong recognize him as a master?

Gu Yuena nodded slightly. She was pleased.

The Strength Clan was considered a first-rate power in the world of soul masters, with a Soul Douluo-level expert among them. Their only drawback was their small numbers.

"Teacher Gu, will you be coming to work tomorrow?"

Liu Erlong held Gu Yuena's slender hands and looked at her expectantly.

Gu Yuena chuckled and asked, "Dean Liu, you seem eager for me to join."

Liu Erlong nodded repeatedly, sighing. "Teacher Gu, you saw it yourself—our Lanba Battle Team is still lacking. You can imagine how bad the ordinary students must be."

"I really hope Dan—um, you can help us."

What she truly wanted was for Gu Yuena to learn from Danheng and pass on his knowledge to the students of Blue Tyrant Academy.

Gu Yuena hummed in thought, clearly tempted.

She was willing to agree for one very important reason—she wanted to spend more time with her husband.

Otherwise, she'd be stuck at home all day, waiting for him.

But if she also worked at Blue Tyrant Academy, they could be together even during the day!

"Very well, Dean Liu. I will discuss this with my husband. If he agrees, I will start work tomorrow."

Gu Yuena smiled gently.

"Great, great!" Liu Erlong nodded excitedly. She wished she could keep Gu Yuena at Blue Tyrant Academy immediately.

"Teacher Gu, you don't know how much I feel like we're kindred spirits. We should become sisters..."

Liu Erlong wasn't surprised by Gu Yuena's willingness to follow Danheng.

After all, if it had been her and Yu Xiaogang, she would have done the same.

Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect

Upon returning, Manager Ning reported everything to Ning Fengzhi, praising Danheng and describing the events in great detail.

Ning Fengzhi nodded slightly, his expression full of interest.

Originally, he had been investigating Danheng because of Gu Yuena. But after realizing that Danheng was the very scholar he had been searching for, and now hearing such glowing reports, his respect for him grew.

He had always admired intellectuals.

"Good. If Mr. Danheng is unwilling to come to us, then we shall not force him. Tomorrow... I will personally visit him."

Ning Fengzhi smiled.

"!!!"

Manager Ning was shocked.

The Sect Master himself would visit Danheng?

Who exactly was Danheng, to be worthy of such attention?

Sword Douluo suddenly asked, "Does he have soul power?"

Ning Manager turned to him, thought for a moment, then shook his head. "No, Mr. Danheng is just an ordinary man—a pure scholar..."

Sword Douluo and Ning Fengzhi exchanged a look, both astonished.

If Danheng was just an ordinary man, how had he married two powerful women like Gu Yuena and Zi Ji?

Meanwhile, back at the Tian Dou Royal Soul Master Academy,

Dugu Yan reported everything about Danheng to Poison Douluo.

"...I really don't understand why Grandpa thinks so highly of him. Sure, he's handsome, but he doesn't seem that impressive—just a weakling."

Dugu Yan shrugged, unimpressed with Danheng.

Poison Douluo chuckled and patted her shoulder, shaking his head. "Yan'er, whether someone is strong or weak depends on their heart... That is a lesson I have only recently come to understand."

"And when it comes to inner strength, I believe Danheng surpasses most."

"Yan'er, you simply haven't gotten to know him well enough yet..."
