Douluo Continent: Reborn as Yuhao, Your Holiness, Please Behave Yourself

Chapter 67 Poison Douluo, Your Majesty, Please Wait

However, before Dugu Bo could recover from his shock, the enormous ice phoenix before him suddenly burst forth with dazzling light.

Its enormous wings flapped in the air, stirring up gusts of icy wind as it pounced towards the Azure Serpent King. Two claws, radiating terrifying coldness, like sharp ice blades, slammed into the Azure Serpent King's hard scales.

This slammed Dugu Bo directly onto the back mountain, crashing into the mountain like a meteor. The impact caused the entire back mountain to tremble, rocks to tumble down, and dust to fly, as if an earthquake had struck.

Having suffered such a great loss, how could Dugu Bo possibly swallow it? A flash of anger appeared in his eyes, and he instantly engaged the Ice Phoenix in battle. Green and blue light intertwined continuously.

The terrifying soul power scattered like an invisible sword, directly cleaving the trees in half and shattering the rocks along the way. The once beautiful back mountain was now reduced to ruins.

The air was thick with the scent of ice and fire. The collision of these two forces caused the earth to tremble, as if shaking in response to this earth-shattering battle.

Dugu Bo's attacks were all carried with overwhelming force, while the Ice Phoenix responded calmly, each flap of its wings bringing forth a storm of frost.

In the mountains and forests, the once tranquil stream was disrupted by the aftermath of the battle, with water splashing everywhere and even causing ripples on the distant lake. The aftermath of the battle even affected the students in the school building.

The duel between Dugu Bo and Shui Yun'er had reached its climax. Their powers collided in mid-air, erupting with dazzling light and deafening roar. At that moment, Huo Yuhao silently used his mental detection sharing skill, connecting his mental power with Shui Yun'er's.

"Aunt Shui, the weakness of Dugu Bo's Jade Phosphorous Serpent King is about one meter above his dantian in his abdomen." Huo Yuhao's voice rang in Shui Yun'er's mind.

Upon hearing Huo Yuhao's reminder, Shui Yun'er did not hesitate for a moment. She immediately mobilized all her power, maximizing her ice attribute energy.

She controlled the ice phoenix, its enormous ice-blue form drawing a graceful arc in the air, its claws gleaming with a chilling light as it viciously clawed at Dugu Bo's abdomen.

With a piercing scraping sound, the Ice Phoenix's claws collided violently with Dugu Bo's scales.

Sparks flew from Dugu Bo's abdomen upon impact, followed by a terrifying burst of extreme ice energy that landed squarely on his abdomen.

This heavy blow caused Dugu Bo to feel a sharp pain. His blood and qi surged within his body, and the circulation of his soul power was momentarily halted due to the sudden attack.

Under such severe damage, Dugu Bo was unable to maintain the state of his martial spirit possession and was forced to withdraw from that powerful combat form.

However, as a titled Douluo-level powerhouse, Dugu Bo's physical attributes and recovery ability were extremely astonishing. He only needed a short adjustment and almost instantly restored the circulation of his soul power.

As Dugu Bo slowly dispelled his Martial Soul Possession form, Shui Yun'er also stopped her attack. Her sharp gaze remained fixed on Dugu Bo, her eyes revealing a hint of coldness.

Shui Yun'er knew that although she seemed to have the upper hand now, Dugu Bo had not yet used his ninth soul skill in this battle.

As everyone knows, the ninth soul skill of a titled Douluo usually possesses world-destroying power. Shui Yun'er knew that if she forced Dugu Bo into a corner and made him use his ninth soul skill, then Tianshui Academy might face annihilation.

Seeing that Shui Yun'er did not press her advantage, Dugu Bo also stopped his further offensive.

"Hmph, I really didn't expect that in just a few years since I stopped paying attention to the developments on the mainland, Tianshui Academy has produced a figure like Dean Shui. I suppose it won't be long before Dean Shui will also step into the ranks of Title Douluo."

Hearing Dugu Bo's evaluation, Shui Yun'er smiled slightly: "Mr. Dugu, you flatter me. The exchange with Senior Dugu just now has given me a deeper understanding and insight into the realm of Title Douluo. I believe that within two years, I will be able to break through my current realm and reach the level of Title Douluo."

Upon hearing Shui Yun'er's words, Dugu Bo's expression shifted between light and shadow, as if he were weighing something.

However, at that moment, a strong aura suddenly emanated from the horizon, and three figures rapidly approached, each exuding a powerful aura at the Soul Douluo level.

Among these three figures, two possessed particularly powerful auras, almost approaching the level of a Title Douluo.

Upon sensing these three powerful auras, Huo Yuhao, Shui Yun'er, Dugu Bo, and the teachers and students of Tianshui Academy almost simultaneously raised their heads and turned their gazes toward the direction from which the auras came.

When they saw the faces of the three Soul Douluos, the three Soul Saints from Tianshui Academy were instantly moved to tears, and the heavy weight in their hearts was lifted.

The visitors were none other than the two former deans of Tianshui Academy, Shui Zexi and Shui Yuanhao, and Shui Yun'er's husband, Shui Yuntian.

Although both of the former deans were over sixty years old, they were in exceptionally high spirits and showed no signs of the despondency often associated with the elderly. They did not look like people who had entered their sixties at all.

"Old Poisoner, it's been ten years, and you haven't changed a bit! May I ask what brings you to my Tianshui Academy today?"

Shui Yuanhao's voice was clear and deep, and his gaze was sharp as he stared intently at Dugu Bo.

In his youth, Shui Yuanhao and Dugu Bo shared a close, gentlemanly friendship, their minds once aligned. However, as time passed, Dugu Bo's personality grew increasingly withdrawn, clashing more and more with Shui Yuanhao's warm and outgoing nature. Ultimately, their differing ideals led them to part ways. Now, the two old friends have reunited, their hair turned white, and Shui Yuanhao feels a pang of loss, for time has passed, and things have changed.

"Old rascal, you have a fine daughter. I came here on Prince Xuexing's orders to capture this brat, but I didn't expect to be stopped by your daughter. To be honest, your daughter's talent is far superior to yours."

Dugu Bo made no attempt to hide his admiration as he spoke.

At Dugu Bo's level, there was no need to hide anything anymore, because absolute strength was his greatest source of confidence.

However, after hearing Dugu Bo's words, Shui Yuanhao, Shui Yuanqing, and Shui Yuanze's expressions changed drastically, and their hearts were filled with worry.

They all knew that Shui Yun'er had suffered serious injuries before, and although she had recuperated for a period of time, her health remained a concern. Now, after her encounter with Dugu Bo, they were genuinely worried about whether her body could withstand the strain.

However, they were relieved after sensing Shui Yun'er's presence. Shui Yun'er's aura was very stable; she showed no signs of injury and was even stronger than before. Her aura seemed to contain a new power.

Shui Yongyuanhao's gaze flickered slightly; it seemed that his daughter would also have an opportunity during this time.

"Old poisoner, since this child you're talking about is someone my daughter wants to protect, then you're not taking him away today. We two old folks have finally managed to meet, why don't we go in and have a cup of tea?"

Shui Yuanhao extended the invitation with a smile, his tone revealing composure and confidence.

Upon hearing Shui Yuanhao's words, Dugu Bo also snorted coldly: "There's no need for tea, but I still want to remind you that Prince Xuexing will not let this go."

"Hehehe, you don't need to worry about that. With us here, nothing will happen to the child."

Dugu Bo gave Shui Yun'er one last deep look before turning and leaving.

However, at this moment, Huo Yuhao took the initiative to call out to Dugu Bo: "Your Excellency Poison Douluo, please wait."
