Douluo: Danheng just want to avoid trouble, Gu Yuena Pursues.-Chapter 145: Chrysanthemum Douluo’s Protection

The story of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's anticlimactic downfall quickly spread among the upper circles of Heaven Dou City.

Naturally, the news of Yu Luomian's death could not be concealed.

Poison Douluo, who was recuperating at the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy, was completely dumbfounded when he heard the news.

Looking at Prince Xue Xing, who had come to deliver the message, he asked in confusion,"You said Yu Luomian is dead? How did he die?" Poison Douluo felt a chill down his spine—he hadn't killed him!

If it were just a beating, even if people knew it was his doing, it wouldn't be a big deal.

But now that Yu Luomian was dead, things had taken a serious turn!

Even he, Poison Douluo, couldn't afford to bear the wrath of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan!

Prince Xue Xing shook his head. "Honestly, it's ridiculous. No one knows exactly how Yu Luomian died. Based on the battle traces at the scene, the opponent was far superior to Yu Luomian and took him away..."

"The coachman was likely killed by Yu Luomian."

"So, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan speculates that someone intercepted Yu Luomian's carriage. Enraged, Yu Luomian killed the coachman, only to be attacked and abducted by a powerful enemy immediately after..."

Prince Xue Xing explained.

Although they said he was 'abducted,' nearly everyone was convinced that Yu Luomian had already been killed.

Poison Douluo's lips twitched. Good grief, he had been set up!

He had just beaten up Yu Luomian, and someone else came in right after to take the kill?Was this some kind of joke?!According to Prince Xue Xing, all the battle traces at the scene were left by him!

"What's even stranger is what exactly happened at Blue Tyrant Academy?"

"Some say Ning Fengzhi made an appearance, but no one knows the specifics."

Prince Xue Xing shook his head, showing little interest.

Poison Douluo hesitated, wanting to ask for more details but also worried that Prince Xue Xing might notice something was off.

"Heh, that guy dying is good news anyway. Heaven Dou City is better off without that menace!"

Poison Douluo thought of how Yu Luomian had dared to threaten Dan Heng. His death was well-deserved!

Prince Xue Xing nodded slightly and smiled. "Let's not talk about him. Let the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan deal with their own troubles. Speaking of troubles, Senior Dugubo, my nephew has been making my life difficult lately..."

"What's wrong?" Poison Douluo asked.

"My nephew first introduced the 'Tui En Decree,' then followed it up with the 'Imperial Examination System.' These two policies are hugely beneficial to the nation, raising his reputation to the level of a 'wise and virtuous prince.' Now, in Heaven Dou City, who doesn't praise him as the 'Sage Crown Prince'?"

Prince Xue Xing's tone was full of jealousy and resentment.

Previously, he had been able to suppress 'Xue Qinghe.'

But ever since 'Xue Qinghe' returned from Star Luo Empire, he had changed completely, as if blessed with divine wisdom!

"So, what do you want me to do? Kill him?" Poison Douluo asked bluntly.

Prince Xue Xing chuckled awkwardly. "Of course not. Though I have my suspicions, we can't be reckless. Senior Dugubo, the thing is, on our return trip, we encountered a great sage..."

"I suspect Xue Qinghe secretly brought him back, but he's keeping it from me!"

Prince Xue Xing gritted his teeth.

This was the only plausible explanation for Xue Qinghe's sudden transformation!

Poison Douluo frowned. "What's the name of this great talent?"

"Dan Heng," Prince Xue Xing said.

Poison Douluo's brows furrowed slightly. "Alright, I understand..."

Huangdou Team Training Grounds

Their instructor, Qin Ming, was telling them about the recent events at Blue Tyrant Academy.

Blue Tyrant Battle Team had defeated Thunderclap Battle Team head-on, without any tricks.

The members of Huangdou Team were momentarily stunned before breaking into heated discussions.

"That's impossible! Those misfits from Blue Tyrant? They couldn't even beat our top three members, and now they're defeating Thunderclap Team?"

"Did Thunderclap Team also fight with just three people?"

"You guys don't get it. Blue Tyrant Academy and Thunderclap Academy are basically the same—they're both backed by the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan... Get it now?"

"..."

They continued discussing.

Qin Ming frowned and said sternly, "You're mistaken. Blue Tyrant Battle Team won fair and square! Thunderclap Team didn't hold back; they didn't even eliminate a single member from Blue Tyrant!"

"!!"

The Huangdou Team fell silent, their eyes filled with disbelief as they stared at Qin Ming.

This news was too outrageous.

It hadn't been long since they last sparred with Blue Tyrant Battle Team.

Back then, Blue Tyrant had performed terribly—they had seen it with their own eyes.

Now they were being told that Blue Tyrant had crushed Thunderclap Team without losing a single member?

Even Huangdou Team themselves couldn't do better than that!

It was absurd!

Yu Tianheng said slowly, "Yu Tianxin is my brother. He told me exactly what Teacher Qin just said—Thunderclap Team was completely defeated..."

Huangdou Team finally stopped talking, all looking as if they had seen a ghost.

They couldn't accept that the once-weak Blue Tyrant Battle Team had reached such a level.

Qin Ming continued, "Originally, I planned to send you to various spirit arenas for real combat experience, but now that Blue Tyrant Academy has invited the other elemental academies, we will spar with them first."

"Great!!"

All the members of Huangdou Team were fired up.

They refused to accept that Blue Tyrant Battle Team had achieved such results!

Heaven Dou City's Spirit Hall

Bibi Dong arrived with Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo.

They had traveled from Spirit City, stopping at several kingdoms and duchies along the way.

After observing the situation in those places, Bibi Dong's face was extremely grim.

Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo didn't dare to speak recklessly.

Because Spirit Hall's years of infiltration into these kingdoms and duchies had been shattered by the Tui En Decree and the Imperial Examination System.

A decade of meticulous planning was now on the verge of collapse.

This wasn't something they could have preemptively countered.

Salas, the current Holy Temple Master, respectfully reported, "Your Holiness, the one who proposed these policies was Heaven Dou Empire's Crown Prince, Xue Qinghe..."

"No, he doesn't have the intellect for this."

Bibi Dong said indifferently, "Someone is guiding him. Dealing with Heaven Dou Empire is my concern. Finding out who is behind Xue Qinghe and eliminating them is your task."

"Chrysanthemum Douluo, Ghost Douluo, don't disappoint me again. That person is definitely in Heaven Dou City. Find them and kill them."

"!!!"

Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo's hearts trembled.

Why did Bibi Dong always assign them such deadly tasks?!

Why not send someone else?!

"...Understood."

Bibi Dong waved her hand, dismissing them.

The great hall was soon empty, leaving her alone, lost in memories.

This place held many cherished moments between her and Yu Xiaogang.

Memories she could never forget, the foundation of her will to endure countless hardships.

"Xiaogang..."

The next morning.

Dan Heng was preparing breakfast when someone knocked on the door.

Zhu Zhuqing opened it, revealing Chrysanthemum Douluo.

He introduced himself as Dan Heng's friend.

But the moment he saw Gu Yuena, his face changed dramatically—he nearly fell to his knees.

"The King of Flowers... Lovesick Heartbreak Red..." Chrysanthemum Douluo murmured in awe, his eyes filled with unparalleled reverence as he stared at Gu Yuena.

Zi Ji walked out of the kitchen and, upon seeing Chrysanthemum Douluo's expression, said irritably:"What are you looking at? Why are you staring at my sister like that?"

Gu Yuena frowned slightly but did not reprimand Chrysanthemum Douluo.

She could tell that although he was looking at her, his gaze wasn't truly directed at her. There was not a trace of lust in his eyes—only pure devotion.

It was even beyond how the savage beasts gazed at her.

"Who are you looking for?" Gu Yuena asked.

Tears streamed down Chrysanthemum Douluo's face as he choked up, "Madam... Madam, are you the owner of the Lovesick Heartbroken Red?"

Gu Yuena nodded slightly. "Yes..."

Chrysanthemum Douluo clutched his chest, sobbing uncontrollably for a while before barely suppressing his emotions. His reddened eyes locked onto Gu Yuena.

"May I... beg you to let me see the Lovesick Heartbroken Red?"

"I am a lover of flowers, and the Lovesick Heartbroken Red is my life's greatest passion. I promise I won't do anything to it..."

Chrysanthemum Douluo gazed at Gu Yuena with a look of pure yearning.

Seeing this, Zi Ji couldn't help but chuckle and said to Bi Ji, "Look at him—if my sister doesn't agree, he might just fall to his knees!"

Gu Yuena nodded slightly. "Alright."

She then went to her room and retrieved the Yearning Heartbroken Red.

The moment Chrysanthemum Douluo saw the immortal herb, he nearly fainted, his entire body trembling.

He dared not touch it. Simply looking at it left him overwhelmed.

"Amazing... Amazing... The Lovesick Heartbroken Red has returned to the world... How wonderful..."

He murmured in a trance.

At that moment, Dan Heng emerged from the kitchen carrying breakfast. Seeing Chrysanthemum Douluo's reverent expression, he immediately understood what had transpired.

After all, his previous deal with Poison Douluo had been to retrieve an immortal herb from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to gift Chrysanthemum Douluo.

Chrysanthemum Douluo had always treated him well, never asking for anything in return.

Chrysanthemum Douluo lifted his head, looking at Dan Heng, then at Gu Yuena. He asked, "Dan Heng, is she your wife?"

Dan Heng nodded. "Yes."

"Good, good, good... I have an unreasonable request. I hope you won't mind, Dan Heng..." Chrysanthemum Douluo said softly.

"What is it?"

Dan Heng walked over and stood beside Gu Yuena.

Chrysanthemum Douluo said, "I... I wish to dedicate my life to guarding the Lovesick Heartbroken Red. When you're not busy, may I come to see it? And if you ever encounter trouble, please inform me immediately!"

"..." Gu Yuena blinked, momentarily dazed.

She couldn't comprehend Chrysanthemum Douluo's thought process.

If not for the fact that she had plucked this flower out of love for her husband, she would have consumed it long ago.

Why did Chrysanthemum Douluo have such deep emotions for it?

Still, his request was inconsequential to her. She didn't care about Chrysanthemum Douluo's strength.

Dan Heng looked at Chrysanthemum Douluo. During his moment of silence, the man nearly dropped to his knees.

"Alright, I agree."

"Thank you," Chrysanthemum Douluo said sincerely.

Dan Heng shook his head and invited him to see the other plants he had been tending. They were all growing well.

New novel 𝓬hapters are published on freёwebnoѵel.com.

Chrysanthemum Douluo agreed, and the two of them went to the small garden in the backyard.

Meanwhile, the four women, including Gu Yuena, went ahead and started breakfast.

In the backyard, Chrysanthemum Douluo observed the flowers and plants, gradually calming down. He rubbed his eyes and said, "Dan Heng, I came here to deliver bad news."

"What is it?"

"The Pope of Spirit Hall has arrived. This time, she is determined to find you. I will do my best to keep it from Old Ghost, but... it will be difficult..."

Dan Heng frowned slightly. He was quite content with his current life, but now, the Pope of Spirit Hall had arrived?

That was a troublesome figure. Her status was undoubtedly among the top three most important in the organization.

Chrysanthemum Douluo added, "Be careful and make preparations in advance. I will delay as much as I can."

Dan Heng thanked him and asked if he wanted to stay for a meal.

Chrysanthemum Douluo waved his hand in refusal. With a flash of his figure, he vanished from the courtyard.
