“Xiaogang, I can assure you that I absolutely did not do this.”
“I will investigate the situation and find the source of this story.”
“But there is one thing I must make clear to you in advance: the person who initially wrote the story did not do so from a book; it was a story passed down by word of mouth.
It is very likely that someone who admires you compiled it, but some errors occurred during the spreading process.
It will be very difficult to hold someone accountable and find the true source; it will take some time.”
Seeing Yu Xiaogang’s expression, Flender only felt a chill in his heart.
As a shrewd businessman, how could he not understand Xiaogang’s meaning?
Clearly, ever since he became a Divine Master, being flattered by countless people of noble status, and having a Disciple who is a deity, his status had gradually changed.
The role of people like them was no longer as significant.
Naturally, their statuses were no longer equal.
However, for the sake of his dream and Shrek Academy’s recruitment, Flender had no choice but to suppress the slight discomfort in his heart.
This matter was naturally orchestrated by Qian Yu.
The war had been won, and without a powerful external enemy, internal strife was about to begin.
Using a few minor tactics was enough to cause their relationship to gradually fracture.
This was only the first step.
Next, he would gradually divide and disintegrate the enemy, even causing them to turn against each other and fight amongst their own people.
With Tang San gone and no absolute military suppression, under the pressure of conflicting interests, who would be willing to be the one being bullied?
In the blink of an eye, another half a month passed.
The scorching sun hung high in the sky.
Qian Yu sat in the courtyard, staring directly at the blazing sun above.
Strands of pure Sun True Fire energy were drawn in as he circulated his Cultivation Technique, converging onto the Holy Wings behind him.
As the Sun True Fire integrated, a touch of red light appeared on the pale golden Holy Wings.
While continuously enhancing the Holy Wings themselves, the transformed and harmonized energy slowly merged into Qian Yu’s eyes.
After trying many times, he had been unable to directly absorb solar energy to temper his eyes; his eyes were simply too fragile, and the Sun True Fire was too domineering.
Even with the cultivation method of the Purple Demon Eye, it could not be harmonized.
If not for the protection of the Divine-Grade head Spirit Bone, he would have long ago made himself blind.
Fortunately, after much research, he discovered that he could absorb Sun True Fire through the external Spirit Bone, the Holy Wings, fuse it with the Holy Light, harmonize it according to a certain ratio, and then integrate it into his eyes, which would more quickly enhance the refinement of his eyes and his Mental Energy.
Now, it could no longer be called the Purple Demon Eye; Qian Yu named it the Flame God Eye.
A Flame God Eye that belonged solely to him.
Once the Flame God Eye reached Major Achievement, its power would certainly far exceed that of the Purple Demon Eye.
“I’ve surpassed Tang San by another margin!”
Only when he felt fatigue in his Mental Energy did Qian Yu stop his Cultivation.
“Young Lord!”
Seeing Qian Yu stop his Cultivation, Lv Zhu immediately handed over a towel for a cold compress.
“Lv Zhu, has Hu Liena not sent any message yet?”
Qian Yu was very concerned about this.
You have to know, until now, he still hadn’t obtained his third spirit ring.
Their time was already limited; perhaps in a few years, Tang San would return to the Douluo Continent from the Divine Realm.
By that time, the situation would be even worse.
What needed to be done right now was to improve his strength as quickly as possible.
“Three days ago, she sent a message saying she had already found the specific address.
Calculating the time, she should send another update this afternoon or tomorrow.”
Lv Zhu handed the secret letter sent by Hu Liena to Qian Yu.
It looked like an ordinary family letter, but some of the characters in it were clearly circled.
“Have found brother; in addition, traces suspected to be Snake Lance Douluo have also been discovered.”
Piecing together the circled characters formed the accurate information she wanted to convey.
These were naturally things Qian Yu had taught Hu Liena.
No matter what one does, it is better to be cautious.
“Found Snake Lance Douluo?”
Seeing the content of this secret letter, Qian Yu fell into deep thought again.
If only he and Lv Zhu were hiding in this Heaven Dou City, as long as they didn’t act rashly, they wouldn’t be easily exposed.
Even with the addition of Hu Liena, with the Angel head Spirit Bone, they could still hide and disguise themselves.
But if there were an additional Titled Douluo, that would be unpredictable.
In this era, Titled Douluo were extremely rare.
No matter how well they disguised themselves, once the aura of a Titled Douluo was leaked, they would certainly be found.
“It seems I need to prepare another safe hiding place.”
After thinking it over repeatedly, Qian Yu couldn’t think of any suitable place.
It was truly because the current Douluo Continent was filled with Tang San’s people.
He had considered the idea of going to the Sun Moon Empire to develop, but the key problem was that there was no way to know where the Sun Moon Empire was.
If they wanted to go there, they would still have to cross the ocean, which was still Tang San’s territory.
“Then they will have to suffer a bit; let’s place their residence in the Star Dou Great Forest.”
In the end, after some thought, Qian Yu decided to let them hide in the Star Dou Great Forest.
It’s just that he didn’t know where those Vicious Beasts were currently hiding.
“Lv Zhu, go and purchase a large amount of daily necessities.
Remember, don’t be afraid of trouble; have people go to several different shops and make multiple trips.”
Qian Yu gave the order to Lv Zhu.
Although up to this point, he hadn’t received clear information about Snake Lance Douluo and the others, it was still better to make thorough preparations in advance.
Afterward, Lv Zhu went to get busy.
The next day, Hu Liena delivered the secret letter on time.
Just as mentioned before, she had found Snake Lance Douluo, and even Porcupinefish Douluo had been found as well.
But now there was a very critical issue: they were injured at their roots.
Besides that, there were some other troubles.
Hu Liena hoped that Qian Yu would make a trip.
To go or not to go was a big question.
Although they had been in contact for so long and Hu Liena was trustworthy, what if?
What if he himself encountered a situation?
“Lv Zhu, for the next period of time, you stay in Heaven Dou City and cultivate well.
Execute the previous plan if you can, but once you discover any bad signs, immediately cut ties.”
“Prioritize self-preservation above all else.
After this period of time, Young Lord will find a way to get you a high-quality ten-thousand-year Spirit Bone.”
In the end, Qian Yu still decided to go.
There was no other way; he needed spirit rings that were of high quality and age.
He had to take the gamble.
Before leaving, he didn’t forget to dangle a carrot for Lv Zhu.
Although Lv Zhu was trustworthy, the carrot still needed to be dangled.
“Young Lord, are you going alone?”
Lv Zhu looked at Qian Yu, her eyes still full of worry.
“It’s fine; it’s actually safer for me to go alone.”
Qian Yu still had some confidence.
With his current strength, even if he faced a five-ring Spirit King, he could still kill them.
