Diary System—Chapter 67: Dai Mubai: Am I your biological son? Why is there such a big difference?
Dugu Bo's mouth twitched as he smiled helplessly. Of course, he knew what Dugu Yan was talking about; it was nothing more than the two of them being poisoned by their Jade Phosphor Serpent Martial Soul.
At first, Dugu Bo did not believe this outrageous precognitive dream, but when his granddaughter mentioned that she was deeply poisoned by her Jade Phosphor Serpent Martial Soul and that she was also affected because she was his granddaughter, he had to reconsider.
It's just that her martial soul is only the Jade Phosphor Serpent Martial Soul, so only her hair and eye color changed, and there were no other alarming symptoms in her body.
Dugu Bo had seen a lot in his life, but he had never revealed the secret of the Jade Phosphorus Serpent Emperor martial soul. Even the other Title Douluo doesn't know that he is deeply poisoned.
The reason his strength isn't particularly strong among the Title Douluo is largely that he cannot exert his full strength. He constantly needs to suppress the toxins in his body every day to prevent a backlash. How could he use his full strength otherwise?
Even the ninth soul skill he had obtained years ago had never been used even once.
"Yanyan, I've looked into the person you mentioned. Only one young man wearing silver-white armor in Star Luo City fits the description: Dai Yichen, the fourth prince of the Star Luo royal family. He has only awakened his martial soul for a year, so I think your dream might be mistaken," Dugu Bo expressed his concerns after coming to the Star Luo Empire, feeling as if the sky were about to fall.
If he had known, he shouldn't have rushed Dugu Yan to leave the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy. He should have gone to Star Luo City to investigate first. But after telling Prince Xuexing that there was only one year left, he didn't let his granddaughter leave Heaven Dou City. He felt helpless.
Dugu Yan glared at her grandfather, hands on her hips, and said, "Grandpa, do you want to be tied to the Heaven Dou Empire forever? Although insiders know that you are just repaying a favor, from the outside, you appear to be standing with the Heaven Dou Imperial Family. Your reputation has suffered because of Xue Xing! What's wrong with using this chance to escape? Even if you go to the Star Luo Empire, you can stay out of it temporarily. Isn't it better for me to contact and inquire for myself?"
Dugu Yan concluded her speech in one breath, her face slightly flushed. She thought her grandfather was sometimes too stubborn. "Grandpa, even if it is out of gratitude, you've been doing it for a few years now, haven't you? That's enough! And didn't I tell you that Yu Tianheng is annoying? He approaches me all the time! As one of the heirs to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family, shouldn't he go to the Thunder Academy instead of coming to the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy?"
Dugu Bo fell silent. He smiled and said, "What's wrong? Although you didn't like Yu Tianheng at first, you didn't hate him either. In just a few months, what changed so much? Has my granddaughter figured something out?"
Dugu Yan hugged Ye Lingling, who was trying to blend into the background and smiled. "Your granddaughter is not that foolish. Lingling and I both felt that something was off. We thought about it for a long time before we came to understand it."
"Lingling?" Dugu Yan asked, blinking her eyes at Ye Lingling.
Of course, Ye Lingling had accompanied her, so the two of them had each other's company.
Ye Lingling couldn't help but smile on her previously expressionless face and said softly, "Well, there are two heirs to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family: Yu Tianheng and Yu Tianxin. Yu Tianxin's talent might be slightly weaker, but his cultivation level is higher. Yu Tianheng is probably coming close to you, Yanyan, because of the influence of Senior Poison Douluo."
"If Yu Tianheng wins your heart, you, who have always treated Yanyan like a precious gem, will likely have to reconsider, even if you'd rather not get involved. With the support of a Title Douluo behind him, no matter how talented Yu Tianxin is, he won't stand a chance."
Dugu Bo sighed, scratched his head, and looked at the two of them. "Why do the two of you seem to have matured overnight? Just because of a dream? Now you've piqued my interest. What kind of person is the fourth prince of Yanyan's dream? Let me observe him secretly."
Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling exchanged smiles. After waiting for a year, it finally happened! They made Dugu Bo believe them. Although their reasoning was a bit far-fetched, Dugu Bo didn't find any flaws in it. After all, they were mostly conveying the truth.
In the Star Luo Palace Imperial Study.
"You said you want me to grant you and Zhu Zhuqing a marriage?" Dai Yutian looked gloomy as he gazed at Dai Mubai kneeling in front of him, his tone indifferent.
Dai Mubai's body trembled slightly, but he still asserted boldly, "Yes, father. According to tradition, Zhu Zhuqing should be my fiancée! I possess innate eighth-level soul power, and she has full innate soul power. The Hell White Tiger we combine will be more powerful!"
"Oh?" Dai Yutian's voice turned a little colder. "You should know that the king is not joking! I said if you want Zhu Zhuqing to be your fiancée, you have to compete with your fourth brother. Regarding your innate eighth level, can it match Yichen's innate full soul power?"
"He has only practiced for a year and reached the realm of a grand soul master! This year, while you were busy practicing and reading, he also took time to cultivate relationships with others. And what were you doing, you waste?! Huh?!"
As he spoke, Dai Yutian grew indignant and kicked Dai Mubai away, shouting angrily, "This year, not only did you often skip classes, but you also didn't train seriously and frequently went to places of ill repute! You want to win over the little girl from the Zhu family with this attitude?!"
Even when Dai Yutian was a prince, he prioritized building a connection with his fiancée in the early stages. The deeper the relationship, the higher the potential fit of their martial soul fusion skills.
The higher the fit, the greater the power of the martial soul fusion skill.
In the early stages, with the knife hanging over his head, who dared to act presumptively? Even if he couldn't help it, he would have to be discreet, whereas Dai Mubai was openly reckless!
Just then, Dai Yichen walked in and saw Dai Mubai on the ground with blood at the corner of his mouth. He was momentarily surprised and found the scene awkward.
He felt no embarrassment; instead, it was Dai Mubai who appeared humiliated.
Dai Yichen retracted his gaze and turned to the angry Dai Yutian. "Father, why did you call for me?"
The moment he saw Dai Yichen, Dai Yutian's previously indifferent expression morphed into a smile. "Yichen, you're here! I heard that you and Zhu Zhuqing went to get her first soul ring, and I called you here to ask if you intend to let her become your fiancée. What does she think?"
Dai Mubai thought, 'Am I your biological son? You change your mood faster than turning the pages of a book!'
Dai Yutian retorted, 'I'm so changeable because he is the first genius of the empire! What about you?'
