The sky was faintly bright, but Heaven Dou City was incredibly noisy at this moment.
"Hey, have you heard? The Strength Clan was wiped out overnight!"
"What? The Strength Clan was annihilated overnight? How is that possible? I heard that Tai Tan is a Spirit Douluo-level powerhouse. Who could have killed him so silently? Did he offend a Titled Douluo?"
"Watch your words, watch your words. We don't know which Senior made the move, but if you ask me, the Strength Clan deserved to die a long time ago. That Tai Tan was extremely arrogant in his daily life, and now I see this as retribution!"
"Hahaha, you're right. But I heard that one person from the Strength Clan survived?"
"That's right. Tai Tan has a grandson named Tai Long. He just joined the Blue Tyrant Academy a while ago, and he happened to stay at the academy last night instead of going home. Tsk, by sheer luck, he escaped a calamity."
"Alas, it's tragic. If you ask me, that kid might as well just die. Not even knowing who his enemy is, that's truly a tragedy to the core."
The Strength Clan's annihilation overnight caused quite a stir, but the imperial family, as the rulers of the Heaven Dou Empire, showed no inclination to investigate. Instead, they quickly began to suppress public opinion about the incident...
"Young Lord, according to our investigation, Tai Tan, that old dog from the Clear Sky Sect, should have died at Dugu Bo's hands."
"It seems to be because Tai Tan secretly tried to harm Lu Yuan, which completely enraged Lu Yuan, causing him to furiously make a move."
Heaven Dou City, Crown Prince's Mansion.
Xue Qinghe listened to Snake Lance Douluo's report, and a cold glint flashed across his face.
"He was truly courting death. It was fortunate that Dugu Bo made a move, otherwise, I would have had to trouble Uncle Snake Lance to act."
"Lu Yuan is someone I value. The Strength Clan actually dared to lay hands on him. It seems these single-attribute clans have been living too comfortably these past few years."
"Uncle Snake Lance, please make a trip back to Spirit Hall and tell Grandpa that these single-attribute clans also need a good rectification. Some people are too comfortable, and their skin is getting itchier and itchier. It's time to loosen their skin."
"Lu Yuan is someone I value. I will not allow anyone to scheme against him."
Xue Qinghe's expression was very displeased, and his voice at this moment reverted to its original tone. His cold voice showed his extreme dissatisfaction...
Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Ning Fengzhi put down the investigation documents in his hand and shook his head with some regret.
"SeniorTai Tan, he was a Senior after all, yet he would do such a thing. It's truly a disgrace in his later years..."
"That Old orangutan also deserved it. He was casually abandoned by the Clear Sky Sect, treated as a discarded piece. These past few years, he hasn't even restrained himself and still claims to be a loyal servant of the Clear Sky Sect. Now he's even coercing juniors, truly shameless."
Bone Douluo, who was tall and stood beside Ning Fengzhi, also spoke at this moment. His tone was full of disdain, and his gaunt face was now filled with mockery.
"Tai Tan's actions were indeed a bit excessive. He died, so he died. However, this Lu Yuan has actually reached the Spirit AncestorRealm. Such talent truly has boundless prospects in the future..."
Sword Douluo, who had been closing his eyes to rest, also opened them at this moment. A sharp glint flashed in his keen eyes.
"Alas, it's a pity that such a Genius is destined not to join my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."
"However, being able to form a good relationship with him can be considered our good fortune. Uncle Sword, based on what you've seen today, to what extent do you think Lu Yuan can reach in the future?"
Ning Fengzhi's face showed a hint of regret, then he quickly returned to his gentle expression. He turned to look at Sword Douluo, with some curiosity on his face.
He still remembered that during their first meeting, his Uncle Sword had said that Lu Yuan would at least reach level 97 in the future.
Now that some time had passed, he was indeed curious if Uncle Sword's impression of Lu Yuan had changed.
"If he doesn't fall in the future, he will at least be a level 98 Titled Douluo, and he even has a chance to assault that legendary Realm."
That Realm!
"Alas, what a pity..."
"Ultimately, my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School doesn't have that good fortune."
The three people present all fell silent. After a long while, Ning Fengzhi finally spoke.
The various forces in Heaven Dou City, faced with the annihilation of the Strength Clan, ultimately chose to remain silent.
And the instigator of all this was currently sitting at home, meditating peacefully.
As he meditated, the life gold he held in his hand continuously emitted a rich life force, constantly nourishing Lu Yuan's body and warming his physique.
Cultivating extreme attributes was extremely slow, but with the help of the life gold, he could always increase his Cultivation speed somewhat...
Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, more than two years had passed.
Lu Yuan finally broke through to level 50 at the age of twelve, only one spirit ring away from becoming a Spirit King.
For this fifth spirit ring, Lu Yuan did not ask Dugu Bo for help. Instead, he bid farewell to everyone and went to the Star Dou Great Forest alone.
Since he had Gu Yuena as a backer, he didn't need to deliberately bring people to find suitable Spirit Beasts. Everything would naturally be aided by Di Tian.
Moreover, his fourth spirit ring had already reached 40,000 years, so the Spirit Beast needed for his fifth spirit ring also needed a significant increase in age.
Therefore, instead of painstakingly searching for it himself, it was better to let Di Tian help.
Half a month later.
Walking in the lush outer reaches of the Star Dou Great Forest, Lu Yuan's expression remained unchanged.
Feeling the gaze from the depths of the forest directed at him, his spirit power immediately surged. With a flash of lightning, a powerful pressure instantly emanated from his body.
A group of Spirit Beasts less than a thousand years old were instantly startled and fled in all directions.
Just as Lu Yuan was about to transmit spirit power to Di Tian's reverse scale, waiting for him to come and pick him up.
At this very moment, a noisy sound came from ahead!
He looked up and immediately saw a jaw-dropping scene.
A group of black-clad individuals continuously forced a black-dressed Young Miss. They surrounded her but did not kill her. Each time they were about to catch her, they would intentionally reveal a flaw, allowing the Young Miss to run further away.
Lu Yuan, whose spirit power had reached level 50, could clearly feel that the spirit power of the leading black-clad person had reached the Spirit AncestorRealm.
But how could a dignified Spirit Ancestor, leading a dozen Spirit Elders, not even catch a mere Spirit GrandmasterYoung Miss?
Are they playing a game?
Is this the Young Miss's hunting game?
The Young Miss is the prey, they're playing it really fancy!
"Second Young Miss, please come back with us!"
"The Third Prince is in Suotuo City. You won't be able to find him. You should just comply..."
Second Young Miss, Third Prince?
Zhu Zhuqing?
Lu Yuan watched with relish; this was too vivid.
Were these black-clad people chasing her? No, in his opinion, this was purely an escort!
It seemed Zhu Zhuyun had no intention of killing Zhu Zhuqing. Otherwise, this group of people chasing Zhu Zhuqing would have already returned with her head.
Moreover, they had been chasing her all the way from Star Luo to here...
