Chapter 21: Uninvited Guests

  Chapter 21 Uninvited Guests

After a while, seeing that Huoyun, who had the Fire Sparrow Soul Ring attached to him, showed no signs of being unable to bear the pressure, Huo lie finally let go of his worries.

Although it is known that taking whale glue can improve the physical fitness of soul masters, whale glue is relatively rare and Blazing Academy is not generous enough to give it to any student. This time, Huoyun was given a third soul ring that is more than 2,000 years old. This is also the first case of a soul master who takes whale glue being given a super-limit soul ring.

It is still in the theoretical stage, and before it is actually verified, Huo Lie is somewhat worried.

But now he was completely relieved. Although the age of the third soul ring that Huoyun was currently attaching was only about six or seven hundred years beyond the normal optimal ratio limit, the excess was not too large, but it also proved that the effect of whale glue was real.

After all, Huoyun had not refined any soul bones. If he had not taken whale glue, the upper limit of the age of his third soul ring would have been at most fourteen hundred years.

Time passed slowly, and a few hours later, the soul power emanating from Huo Yun surged, and he successfully refined the Fire Sparrow Soul Ring that was more than two thousand years old, and his soul power level officially advanced to the three-ring Soul Master.

"Dean, I succeeded!"

As soon as he woke up, he didn't have time to experience the changes after his soul power advanced. Looking at the purple third soul ring blooming on his body, which was a little darker than the other three-ring students in the academy, Huoyun couldn't contain the joy in his heart, and said to Huo Lie with excitement.

Touching his chin, Huo Lie nodded with satisfaction: "Not bad! If you continue to take the third soul ring of more than two thousand years, although the fourth soul ring of ten thousand years will not work, the fourth soul ring of nine thousand years should still not be a problem."

As he spoke, Huo Lie couldn't help but glance at Mu Yang beside him.

My eldest nephew not only has a good talent for cultivation, but also has very good luck.

When he brought this kid to the Sunset Forest to hunt souls, he accidentally got a mysterious book called "Extreme Flame Meditation Method", which gave him an opportunity to achieve the Nine-Ring Titled Douluo in the future.

He bought this kid some whale glue to nourish his body. Although his body still looked the same after eating it, he discovered the true effect of whale glue, which was outrageous!

He always feel that this kid has taken all the good things in the world!

Suddenly, the subtle sounds of insects and birds that came into his ears stopped abruptly. There was silence in the forest, and a sense of oppression arose spontaneously, as if some peerless monster had suddenly appeared.

Then, a deep voice reached the ears of Mu Yang and the other two: "The fourth spirit ring of nine thousand years should not be a problem? Can you tell me in detail?"

Suddenly, the three of them were startled and turned around to look at the sound. They saw two figures, one old and one young, appearing in the forest not far away.

The old man was dressed in a grey robe and had a tall and thin figure that looked like a javelin. His hair and beard were both dark green, and his eyes sparkled like emeralds.

Next to the old man was a young girl who looked very heroic, with short dark purple hair. She wasn't particularly beautiful, but with a pair of green eyes, she gave off a kind of enchanting charm.

"This is Dugu Bo, no, Grandpa Xiancao?"

Although he had never seen Dugu Bo, Mu Yang was certain that this old man with dark green hair and beard and a profound aura must be the guest of the Tiandou royal family, Poison Douluo Dugu Bo.

Of course, compared to Dugu Bo's strength as a Titled Douluo, Mu Yang cares more about his other identity: the Grandpa of Immortal Grass.

Dugu Bo: Pick whatever you want!

"Huo Lie from Blazing Academy, I am honored to meet His Majesty the poison douluo!"

Sure enough, just when Mu Yang was secretly confirming the old man's identity, Huo Lie respectfully bowed to Dugu Bo.

Dugu Bo was a famous Titled Douluo in the world of soul masters and also a royal guest of the empire, so Huo Lie would naturally recognize him.

Then, Mu Yang and Huo Yun also bowed to Dugu Bo.

This salute was performed because Dugu Bo was one of the few Titled Douluo masters in the mainland's soul master world, and it was a sign of respect from the weak to the strong.

"The Blazing Academy?"

Dugu Bo raised his eyebrows slightly, but didn't care too much.

For ordinary soul masters, Blazing Academy is famous enough and strong enough, but for Titled Douluo, well, it's just Blazing Academy, even though Dugu Bo's strength is not strong among Titled Douluo.

Mu Yang: It's not that we are not strong, but we are at the bottom.

Of course, the Blazing Academy still has some foundation. Although on the surface, the Blazing Academy only has one eight-ringed Soul Douluo, he is only a senior member of the academy at present.

Senior executives like the former dean and vice-dean of the college are not gone, but have retired to enjoy their retirement due to their age.

But he didn't want to kill Huo Lie, he just wanted to ask a question. Chihuo Academy would not fight with him for this.

"Well, if the reason you said you could add the 9,000-year-old fourth spirit ring was not due to refining spirit bones, and this method has no side effects, then I owe you a favor."

After thinking about it, Dugu Bo said to Huo Lie.

His granddaughter Dugu Yan just broke through level 30 yesterday and has not yet had time to add the third soul ring. If Huo Lie's method is really effective, Dugu Bo is willing to owe a favor for the sake of his granddaughter's brighter future.

"this"

Hearing this, Huo Lie looked hesitant.

It's not that Huo Lie was not prepared to agree, but he couldn't agree too quickly. He wanted to give Dugu Bo the feeling that "my method is very valuable. If I really couldn't refuse, I would never tell you."

Dugu Bo is a man of both good and evil character. Now that he has asked, and this place is the Sunset Forest, a perfect place to kill and silence witnesses, Huo Lie will not be able to refuse.

Moreover, after Huo Yun returns to the academy, unless he does not use his martial soul in the future, the configuration of his soul rings that exceed the age limit will inevitably be revealed, and it is only a matter of time before the actual effect of the whale glue is leaked.

In that case, there's no harm in telling Dugu Bo now.

The knowledge of this by Dugu Bo, an outsider, only affected Chihuo Academy by bringing forward the original plan.

Seeing Huo Lie hesitating, Dugu Bo was not annoyed but happy.

Because Dugu Bo knew clearly that in the current situation, Huo Lie would not and dared not refuse him.

And Huo Lie hesitated, which means that in addition to refining soul bones, there is really a way to add a 9,000-year-old fourth soul ring, and it has no side effects, otherwise he would have said it directly.

Pretending to hesitate for a moment, Huo Lie gritted his teeth and said, "This method really has no side effects. I can tell Your Majesty, but I hope Your Majesty will keep it secret for a while after learning about it."

"No problem! If anyone asks, I will keep it a secret."

Dugu Bo agreed without hesitation.

He only has one granddaughter, Dugu Yan, so it doesn't matter if he doesn't tell others.

Moreover, he could hear that Chihuo Academy didn't seem to plan to keep this method secret for long. Maybe they would announce it widely later, otherwise Huo Lie wouldn't just say "keep it secret for a while".
