Chapter 39: Drinking again?
Inside the Papal Palace.
Ghost Douluo and Chrysanthemum Douluo bowed and inquired, "Your Holiness, shall we lead a team to Heaven Dou City to capture that 100,000-year-old soul beast and eliminate that brat?"
Bibi Dong calmly replied, "No need! We just need to wait for them to walk right into our trap in Wuhun City. That person will naturally show up then!"
Zhou Yu not only revealed Xiao Wu and Tang San's true identities, but also reported to Bibi Dong that they would participate in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament.
His latest mission is to forcibly separate Yu Xiaogang and Liu Erlong.
However, Zhou Yu currently faces an obstacle that needs to be cleared.
—bang bang bang
Three loud noises came from outside the hall, alarming the Pope and the two titled Douluo.
The three fires that had been so arrogant had been extinguished by three shots, leaving behind only silence.
Yan knelt on one knee, staring wide-eyed at the deep, dark hole in front of him in disbelief.
With just a flick of Zhou Yu's finger, this deadly weapon called the Desert Eagle would blow his head off.
Hu Liena and Xie Jian, who were watching from the sidelines, wanted to step forward to stop it, but it was too late.
Three shots were fired just now, two of which hit Yan's palms precisely as he was using his soul skill.
The other shot hit his knee, forcing him to kneel on one knee.
Holding his Desert Eagle, Zhou Yu stood calmly opposite Yan and declared indifferently, "Senior Yan, you have lost!"
As a member of the golden generation, they were humiliated in this way by juniors who were several years behind them.
Besides, the beauty he secretly admired was right beside him.
Yan would rather face a hail of bullets than endure this humiliation.
"You're asking for it!"
Just as he prepared to fight back desperately, a soft, feminine voice came from behind him: "Stop! What are you doing?"
"Elder Ju!"
Upon seeing that the newcomers were Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo, the Golden Generation immediately stepped forward to pay their respects.
Seeing this, Zhou Yu put away his Desert Eagle and stepped forward to bow, saying, "Two elders!"
Ghost Douluo was shrouded in thick black mist, his voice heard but his face unseen: "Zhou Yu, the Pope's order, carry it out immediately, without fail!"
"Yes, sir!"
Zhou Yu responded quickly, then turned and left.
His victory over Yan just now was entirely due to his unexpected move. If they were to meet again, it would be hard to say who would win.
Yan, indignant, stood up and said, "Elder, I was careless just now, otherwise..."
"Shut up!"
Chrysanthemum Douluo angrily rebuked, "He is a few years younger than you, but his soul power has already reached level forty-nine. In terms of talent, he is indeed superior to the three of you."
Finally, he cautioned, "His Holiness the Pope seems to value him highly; you'd better not provoke him lightly."
After the two elders left, Xie Yue, the leader of the Golden Generation, patted Yan on the shoulder and comforted him, saying, "He will represent the Heaven Dou Royal Academy in the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament. He will have a chance to take revenge."
Yan nodded, his gaze fixed on Zhou Yu's departing figure: "Let's see how long you can be so arrogant!"
Hu Liena, who was behind him, did not hate Zhou Yu as much as Yan did, but she was also unwilling to be surpassed.
However, instead of trying to kill the other party, she chose to improve herself.
……
Zhou Yu boarded the carriage and returned to Tiandou City.
Before Tang San returned, he planned to make his move against Yu Xiaogang.
The current Blue Tyrant Academy has been renamed Shrek Academy.
As soon as Zhou Yu entered, he saw five members of Shrek Academy cultivating.
The sharp-eyed Ning Rongrong spotted him and excitedly ran up to him: "Lin Yu, what brings you here?"
"Of course I came to see you. How's your cultivation going? Have you made any breakthroughs?"
Zhou Yu habitually raised his hand and gently stroked the back of her head in reply.
Oscar, who was not far away, became unsettled upon seeing Zhou Yu, and was even more jealous when he saw Zhou Yu's intimate interaction with Ning Rongrong.
Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun naturally sided with Oscar, constantly comforting him.
Zhou Yu had helped Zhu Zhuqing before, which left her with a very good impression.
This usually taciturn and icy beauty actually took the initiative to step forward and greet him: "Hello, Lin Yu!"
Zhou Yu smiled gently and naturally extended his right hand: "Hello, Zhu Qing!"
A blush crept across Zhu Zhuqing's face, unable to hide her shyness, but she still extended her hand, and the two touched fingertips, completing a warm handshake.
Seeing this, Oscar and Ma Hongjun acted quickly, blocking Dai Mubai from the left and right, fearing that the two sides would clash again.
Zhou Yu, however, seemed unconcerned, simply asking softly, "Why haven't I seen Xiao Wu?"
Ning Rongrong sighed and replied, "Ever since Third Brother was captured, Xiao Wu has been locking herself in her room."
"I see. Didn't Master say that Senior Dugu Bo wouldn't harm Tang San? You don't need to worry too much."
Zhou Yu feigned reassurance, then changed the subject: "By the way, isn't the master usually the one who personally supervises your cultivation? Where's he?"
Upon hearing this question, Ning Rongrong couldn't help but laugh: "Hehe, ever since Aunt Erlong and Master reunited after so long, she's been pestering him. But Master has been avoiding her..."
"Haha, as expected, there's always something that can subdue something else."
Zhou Yu laughed heartily, then said, "Although the master doesn't have time to supervise you, you're not allowed to slack off!"
"I know, you're only a little older than me, and you're always telling me what to do."
Ning Rongrong pouted, turned around, and took Zhu Zhuqing's arm, saying, "Zhuqing, I'm hungry. How about we let Lin Yu treat us to something delicious?"
"I……"
Zhu Zhuqing wanted to politely decline, but she couldn't resist Ning Rongrong's insistence and had no choice but to be pulled forward by her.
Seeing this, Dai Mubai lost all interest in meditation and cultivation, and shouted, "Xiao Ao, Fatty, I'll treat you to drinks, let's go!"
Upon hearing about drinking, Ma Hongjun immediately became interested and replied, "Brother Dai, that's great! I'll drink with you until we drop!"
Unlike the carefree fat man, Oscar's heart was still with Ning Rongrong.
At that moment, a thought struck him, and he suggested, "Xiao Wu stays cooped up in her room all day, so... let's invite her over! As the saying goes, drowning one's sorrows in alcohol might cheer her up."
After saying that, he looked at Ning Rongrong, who had already reached the door, and asked loudly, "Rongrong, what do you say?"
"drink wine……"
Ning Rongrong was shocked, recalling the time when the Shrek Seven Devils celebrated their victory in the Soul Battle, and Ma Hongjun did that kind of thing to Zhu Zhuqing while drunk.
She was about to refuse when Zhou Yu beside her unexpectedly replied, "Since Young Master Dai is treating, of course I should give him face!"
Upon hearing this, Ma Hongjun curled his lip slightly and muttered, "Tch, they never said they'd invite you!"
At this moment, Ning Rongrong felt a sense of foreboding.
She decided that no matter what happened, she would protect Zhu Zhuqing every step of the way.
