For a moment, Hu Liena and the others listened to the Dragon King story until their brains were about to break.
Off the charts!
Extremely off the charts!
After Liam finished the Dragon King story, he said:
"Next, I'll tell you the story of the return of the God of War."
"This time, let's take Tang Hao as the protagonist. When the generation's God of War, Tang Hao, returned, he actually discovered that his son, Tang San, had been sold to a brothel by his enemies. The might of a king cannot be provoked. With a wave of his hand, he summoned ten thousand soldiers to boost his son's performance—bah, he summoned ten thousand soldiers to pledge allegiance."
Hu Liena and the others:???
That night.
Liam and his group chose to stay at a hotel and continue their journey the next day. Spirit City was already very close, so there was no need to rush overnight.
Meanwhile, on the other side.
Flander and his group also arrived at Heaven Dou City and were resting in a hotel. Everyone felt much more relaxed upon reaching Heaven Dou City.
After all, Heaven Dou City was the imperial capital of the Heaven Dou Empire. Since Liam and the others were from Spirit Hall, no matter how arrogant they were, they wouldn't dare to go too far here, right?
Qian Renxue: Ah, right, right, right!
In the room.
Tang Hao looked at the few people who were about to leave and called out, "Grandmaster, Dean Flander, you two stay for a moment."
Hearing this, the two nodded slightly.
The others glanced at Tang Hao and his son and left the hotel room.
Tang Hao asked:
"Grandmaster and Dean Flander, what are your plans next?"
Flander glanced at Yu Xiaogang and replied, "I want to arrange for the academy's teachers and students to study here."
"To be honest, Haotian Douluo, even without Liam and them, I would have brought them to Heaven Dou City soon. The teaching environment at Shrek Academy is too poor. Studying here will allow them to grow better."
Tang Hao nodded slightly and looked at Yu Xiaogang, asking:
"Grandmaster, what are your arrangements?"
Yu Xiaogang's face was gloomy as he said:
"I need to go to Spirit City to find Bibi Dong."
Flander was a bit conflicted and hesitated before asking:
"Is it absolutely necessary to go?"
"Actually, Xiao San's talent is very good. If we stay in Heaven Dou City and fully cultivate Xiao San, he can still get revenge in the future."
Tang Hao also nodded, thinking that Yu Xiaogang's step of going to Spirit Hall to find Bibi Dong was a bit too confident.
Yu Xiaogang said with a solemn expression:
"It is absolutely necessary to go."
"Going to Spirit City to hold Bibi Dong accountable is just one thing. The truly important matter is to ask Bibi Dong how to solve the problem of Twin Martial Souls."
"Haotian Douluo, you should know that Bibi Dong is the second person with Twin Martial Souls in the past hundred years, and the only successful one."
Upon hearing this, Tang Hao's heart instantly tightened. Regarding Twin Martial Souls, even as a Title Douluo, he didn't know much, let alone how to solve the problem of backlash.
Tang San looked at Yu Xiaogang, his eyes filled with gratitude.
"Teacher, will Bibi Dong tell you?"
Yu Xiaogang nodded slightly and said:
"She will. My relationship with her is very deep."
Tang Hao looked at Yu Xiaogang and the other and said:
"Grandmaster, I'll have to trouble you with this matter. The reason I asked you to stay is that there's something I need to tell you. Have you ever heard of the Heaven Dou Royal Family's national treasure—the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud?"
Yu Xiaogang and Flander looked a bit confused and said:
"Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud?"
"We've heard of it."
"But we don't know the specifics."
Tang San chimed in:
"The Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, if I can get it, I can unlock the divine inheritance and also receive the help of the Sea God."
"Divine inheritance?"
"Help of the Sea God?"
Yu Xiaogang and Flander were shocked.
Tang San nodded heavily and said, "It's just that my father is currently severely injured, and the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud is a national treasure of the Heaven Dou Empire, making it extremely difficult to obtain."
Tang Hao looked at Yu Xiaogang and asked:
"Grandmaster, can you get help from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family?"
This?
Yu Xiaogang felt awkward in his heart. As a waste who was kicked out of the family, he could pretend outside, but he really couldn't pretend at home!
He said solemnly:
"I haven't been in contact with the family for many years."
Flander said from the side:
"That's not impossible. Grandmaster, have you forgotten her?"
When Yu Xiaogang heard this, his face instantly froze.
Flander continued:
"Actually, I haven't decided yet whether to arrange everyone at Heavenly Dou Royal Academy or at Blue Tyrant Academy."
"Grandmaster, Liu Erlong has been waiting for you at Blue Tyrant Academy all these years. Now that things are like this, it's time for you to give her an explanation."
Oh!
Tang Hao and Tang San suddenly understood, it was Yu Xiaogang's cousin, Liu Erlong!
Tang Hao then said:
"Grandmaster, avoiding some things forever is not a solution."
Tang San also said, "Teacher, although the current situation is something no one wants to see, you can now be with her, and you can give her an explanation."
Yu Xiaogang's face showed a pained expression, and finally he sighed:
"Fine."
"Tomorrow morning, I will take you to Blue Tyrant Academy."
Grandmaster is still quite confident!
However.
The current Liu Erlong was no longer the Liu Erlong of the past.
Here.
Liam sat meditating in the hotel, preparing to check the diary rewards and then practice the Martial Soul Fusion Skill with Hu Liena and the other two.
Beep!
[Diary, recording a wonderful transmigration life.]
[Rewards are being issued...]
[Congratulations to the host for receiving the reward: All spirit ring years increased by one thousand years.]
[Congratulations to the host for receiving the random reward: Douluo Continent map.]
Huh?
Seeing the second reward, Liam couldn't help but feel a bit strange.
However.
When he took out the map to look at it, he couldn't help but laugh.
Seeing Liam suddenly burst into laughter, Hu Liena asked, "What's making you so happy late at night?"
Ye Lingling and Dugu Yan also looked over curiously.
Liam replied with a smile:
"A good thing!"
Hu Liena and the other two were confused and leaned over to look. They found that it was a map, and unlike the maps they usually saw, this map recorded the geography of the entire continent in great detail.
Hu Liena shook her head slightly and said:
"This map records the various parts of the continent in great detail, something even our Spirit Hall doesn't have. However, does this map have any special significance?"
Dugu Yan mumbled:
"Could there be treasure?"
"Haha!"
Liam wrapped his arm around Dugu Yan, pulled her into his embrace, and kissed her fiercely, replying:
"You guessed right, this is your reward!"
"This map is a treasure to me. From this map, I can roughly identify where there are large quantities of saltpeter and sulfur."
"There's a saying in my hometown: 'One saltpeter, two sulfur, three charcoal, add a little sugar for a Big Ivan.' Saltpeter, sulfur, and charcoal are saltpeter, sulfur, and charcoal, respectively. This is the recipe for making gunpowder."
"As for what gunpowder is, it's a weapon that can create equality among all living beings."
(TN: I, personally, hate when MCs introduce gunpowder and modern weapons into fantasy worlds, as if they were former gunsmiths in their past life. At best, they could make a musket, which, while deadly, isn't going to outperform even a low level fantasy world, perhaps only giving non soul masters a way to fight but not at the level of killing Titled Douluo.)
