Douluo: Phoenix God Descends, Emperor Flame Burns the Heavens

Tang San raced through the night, covering the distance from the Star Luo border back to Heaven Dou in just a few days.

The journey had been arduous, and even a Soul Douluo's body felt fatigued.

Upon returning to Heaven Dou, his first stop was Shrek Academy, where he met Liu Erlong and Flender.

Ever since Flender was crippled by Lin Xiao, he was essentially unable to fight. His fragile meridians simply couldn't handle the flow of immense Soul Power.

He poured all his energy into establishing the academy, vowing to create the continent's top institution.

Recently, a new student named Na'er had joined, wielding a Silver Dragon Spear with unmatched prowess, quickly becoming Flender's favorite.

Unexpectedly, another student named Wang Qiu'er soon followed, armed with a formidable Golden Dragon Spear. Together with the Silver Dragon Spear, they were hailed as Shrek's twin stars.

Consequently, Flender's complexion had improved significantly compared to before.

Liu Erlong, however, looked haggard.

Ever since the Blue Tyrant Clan's annihilation, she frequently suffered nightmares, reliving the horrific scenes of her clan being slaughtered.

Furthermore, Yu Xiaogang, who had gone to the Star Luo Empire with Dai Mubai, had suddenly gone silent, which became the final straw that broke her.

Seeing Tang San return.

Both Liu Erlong and Flender were overjoyed.

Liu Erlong immediately grabbed Tang San's shoulders and shook him vigorously, saying:

"Xiao San, you're alright? That's wonderful!"

"Where's Xiao Gang? Where is Xiao Gang?"

Tang San fell silent for a moment, lowering his head with a hint of shame.

Liu Erlong's body stiffened, her hands sliding powerlessly from Tang San's shoulders as she sobbed uncontrollably.

Tang San quickly explained:

"Dean Erlong, please don't worry, Teacher is fine!"

Liu Erlong's sobs abruptly ceased, and a look of surprise appeared on her face as she asked:

"Then where is Xiao Gang now?"

Tang San gave a wry smile and recounted everything that had happened in the Star Luo Empire to Liu Erlong and Flender.

As Liu Erlong and Flender listened, their expressions turned extremely grim.

Dai Mubai was dead, Yu Tianheng and Oscar had defected, but fortunately, Yu Xiaogang had been taken in by Spirit Hall and was temporarily safe.

Tang San said indignantly:

"What angers me the most is Yu Tianheng and Oscar! Dai Boss was killed by Dai Weisi, and instead of seeking revenge, those two actually started working for Dai Weisi!"

"Are they even considered brothers?"

Liu Erlong sighed, her face etched with sorrow.

"Xiao San, don't blame them. They were just forced into it."

Beside them, Flender's eyes gleamed as he looked at Tang San and said:

"Xiao San, I feel like your aura has become much stronger. What's your current strength level?"

Although Flender's meridians were nearly crippled, his Soul Saint rank was still there, allowing him to sense the powerful aura emanating from Tang San.

His killing intent was almost tangible, his Soul Power vast, giving Flender a strong sense of pressure.

Hearing this, Tang San raised his head with a touch of pride.

"Dean Flender, to be honest, I am now a Soul Douluo."

"What?!"

Flender and Liu Erlong exclaimed in unison.

Tang San continued:

"This is nothing. My ultimate goal is to inherit the Asura Godhood."

"However, I've encountered a small problem right now. I wonder if there's a solution?"

Liu Erlong inquired:

"What trouble?"

Tang San truthfully explained.

"I was poisoned by Bloody Mary in the Slaughter City, and I have an extreme craving for blood."

"And during the Asura God's Trial, my body was infused with killing intent multiple times, making it impossible for me to control it freely, let alone master it. If this continues, I might lose control of myself."

"Once I'm consumed by murderous intent, I'll end up like my great-grandfather, Tang Chen."

Liu Erlong pondered for a moment.

"Killing intent, you say? There doesn't seem to be a quick fix for that. It requires self-cultivation and using one's willpower to suppress it."

"However, I once attended a banquet hosted by Tang Yuehua, the Pavilion Master of Moon Pavilion. Her Martial Soul is very special and can influence people's emotions."

"And her zither skills are extremely advanced; she's proficient in all sorts of instruments and has achieved considerable success. She can also help soothe the mood."

"With her help, Xiao San, it won't be difficult for you to suppress the killing intent on your body."

Tang San said with pleasant surprise:

"Dean Erlong, you think so too?"

"I was just planning to find Tang Yuehua! Unfortunately, ever since the Clear Sky Sect was destroyed, Tang Yuehua has vanished without a trace. It's like searching for a needle in a haystack if I go looking alone, and time waits for no one!"

"Please, Dean Erlong and Dean Flender, do me a favor and help me find Tang Yuehua!"

Liu Erlong said with an unreadable expression:

"She's just a woman, and an ordinary person at that. In these chaotic times, with her sect destroyed, to avoid becoming someone's plaything or a target, she can only hide."

"This person won't be easy to find..."

Tang San bowed deeply to Liu Erlong and Flender, tears welling up in his eyes.

"You are the only ones I can rely on now!"

"If I cannot control my own murderous thoughts, even if I complete the entire Asura God's Trial, I won't be able to inherit the Asura Godhood. In the end, I'll just be a puppet of my killing intent!"

Liu Erlong sighed deeply.

"I will use all my resources to help you find Tang Yuehua, but I have to leave for a while myself. I need to go to Spirit City; I must find Xiao Gang!"

Tang San knew Liu Erlong's deep affection for Yu Xiaogang, so he didn't try to stop her, only saying gratefully:

"Thank you, Dean Erlong!"

Flender also said:

"Xiao San, I still have some connections in the Soul Master world. I will do everything in my power to have them find out where Tang Yuehua is."

"Thank you, Dean Flender!"

Tang San was overjoyed.

...

Xiao Wu finally found an opportunity to pass information to Lin Xiao. Upon learning that Gu Yuena had actually awakened and harbored hostility towards him, Lin Xiao was somewhat surprised.

However, he felt no fear.

Land that has been baptized by artillery fire is the cleanest land; opponents conquered by fists are the most loyal subordinates.

If they don't listen, beat them until they do; if they still refuse to yield after being beaten, then simply kill them!

However.

Gu Yuena's mysterious action was something Lin Xiao couldn't understand. If she believed that "those not of our kind are bound to have different intentions," why did she then lurk by his side?

Here's a dark joke.

Gu Yuena let the naive Na'er personality interact with herself. Is she truly not afraid that one day, when her consciousness awakens, she'll be lying in a delivery room preparing to give birth?

Before Xiao Wu could finish, she continued:

"There's one more thing, Lin Xiao. Tang San has returned to Shrek Academy."

"Upon his return this time, he mobilized everyone to search for Tang Yuehua, seemingly to control the killing intent on his body."

Lin Xiao was somewhat astonished by this.

That little rat Tang San, he returned to Heaven Dou City without a word?

And he actually knows that Tang Yuehua's domain skill can release negative emotions?

"Xiao Wu, you've done very well."

"Continue monitoring Tang San."

Xiao Wu's eyes were filled with a wistful gaze, much like a draft horse in later generations.

Lin Xiao promised:

"Don't worry, rewards will be given according to merit. I won't forget you in the future."

Xiao Wu once again believed Lin Xiao's empty promises.
