Chapter 14 Funeral

Chapter 14 Funeral
"Dugu Huang. Dugu Huang, I shouldn't have told you these things. Please don't get into any trouble."

The Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect has a lot of heritage, and the knowledge about cultivation is also innumerable.

Looking at Dugu Huang's situation at this moment, Ning Rongrong remembered one of the mysterious pieces of knowledge called the inner demon.

When a soul master suffers a great blow, including being betrayed by his close ones and being defeated by people he has always looked down upon, a state called inner demon will appear.

If a soul master has inner demons, it will have many negative effects on his path of cultivation.

For example, when absorbing soul rings and upgrading soul power, the inner demon memory will disrupt the normal promotion state and cause serious errors. In this state, the promotion may fail at best, or even die on the spot at worst.

[Detect the host to obtain the hidden task: Revenge of the Green Phosphorus]

[Mission details: Sixteen years ago, the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex coveted the Dugu family's medicine business.

At that time, the Wanglong Clan of the Blue Lightning Dynasty, which already had a Titled Douluo, wanted to bring the Dugu Clan, which had no title, under its wing at the cost of freeloading.

But the young Dugu Bo, as the clan leader at the time, couldn't bear to see his family living under the shadow of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex.

Dugu Bo led his family to rebel against the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan, but due to the gap in their martial spirits and the lack of top-end combat power.

Dugu Bo finally paid the price of serious injury to increase his soul power, and only managed to keep the last few members of his tribe alive, while the rest were slaughtered.

[Task time limit: 1 year]

[Task Success Reward: Martial Arts Eye of Heaven]

"It's actually a stage mission. System, you really understand me. You issued a mission just when I wanted to take revenge. I like it."

Listening to the information released by the system in my mind, joy crept up to the corners of my mouth. Who doesn't like a system that gives away pillows when you're sleepy?
But Ning Rongrong didn't know what was in Dugu Huang's mind. When she saw the smile on Dugu Huang's lips, tears suddenly welled up in her eyes.

"It's all my fault. I shouldn't have told you these things.

If you develop a demon in your heart in the future, I, Ning Rongrong, will feel sorry for you for the rest of my life."

Hearing the sound of someone crying, Dugu Huang's consciousness returned to reality from his mind.

The girl's thoughts were easy to understand. When Dugu Huang saw Ning Rongrong covering her face and crying, combined with some of the words he heard her say, he instantly knew why she was crying.

"Speaking of which, am I really that fragile? I can't be so disturbed by hearing about a family being massacred."

"No, it's absolutely wrong. I am from the Dugu family."

The smile on Dugu Huang's face that appeared due to the system slowly disappeared, and his voice became slightly lowered, sounding dull, as he said so.

"Why should I blame you? If I had ended up with a demon just by hearing the Thunder Serpent, I don't think I would be standing here peacefully."

After hearing what Dugu Huang said, Ning Rongrong stopped crying immediately and put down her hands that were covering her face.

Looking at Dugu Huang who had returned to normal, she sniffed her slightly red nose and said to Dugu Huang with her slightly swollen eyes.

"Are you really okay?"

"Otherwise, I want to reach the top, but the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex can't stop me."

"I can even say that the incident you mentioned motivated me to work harder to become stronger, so the inner demon doesn't exist at all. Compared to the faults you mentioned, it's better to say that you inspired me."

"Really? You really think so?"

"I, Dugu Huang, would never lie to anyone but a beautiful girl."

Dugu Huang reached out to wipe away the remaining tear on Ning Ronglai's little face, and said something nonchalantly to tease the girl in front of him.

"And what I never thought was that the little princess of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect would actually care about me."

"You bastard Dugu." Feeling the hand playing weird on her face and Dugu Huang's words exposing her, Ning Rongrong took two steps back with a red face.

"Student Dugu, please stop bullying Rongrong."

Bai Chenxiang supported Ning Caicai who was about to fall backwards, and said to Dugu Huang with a look of blame in her eyes.

“I have to say, it feels pretty good.”

Dugu Huang met Zi Chenxiang's gaze and looked at Ning Caicai in her arms, making an innocent expression with his hands spread out.

"You bastard, you stinky Dugu!!!"

"It's getting late. Let's go to the central area."

Bai Chenxiang rubbed Ning Rongrong's red face and spoke to Ning Rongrong and also to Dugu Huang.

"This lady reluctantly accepts that Chou Dugu will go with us, but he cannot do that to me again."

A trace of seriousness appeared on Ning Rongrong's slightly red face. But that fair and tender face and serious expression did not make Dugu Huang feel awe at all. He even wanted to rub her again.

"I'll try my best."

"You stinky Dugu..."

"Hey, Rongrong, don't walk so fast."

Dugu Huang and the other two chatted as they walked towards the central area.

And when the three people walked away.

A black-robed figure appeared where the three were just now. He looked at Dugu Huang's back, thought deeply, and was about to leave.

Suddenly, an extremely hot soul power attack landed at his feet, instantly interrupting his thoughts of leaving.

"Who is it that ruins my good deeds?"

"Humph, how can you spy on my students? Do you think I don't exist?"

The next moment, a red soul power erupted here, and a beautiful figure slowly walked out of it. Her long brown-red hair fluttered with the fluctuations of the soul power, and her fiery red robe made her look like a triumphant female general.

Liu Erlong sensed the fluctuation of the black-clothed man's soul power, her brows furrowed slightly, and then her soul power burst out again, releasing all of her own soul rings.

Seven soul rings floated behind her, and the hot soul power seemed to melt the ground beneath her feet.

"Liu Erlong, don't think I'm afraid of you."

The mysterious black shadow also revealed seven soul rings with the same configuration as Liu Erlong. The difference from Liu Erlong was that blue lightning flashed beside him.

"Humph, you're not afraid of me? Then why don't you even dare to show your face?"

"Third Soul Skill - Fury of the Flame Dragon"

In just a blink of an eye, Liu Erlong's right arm completely transformed into a scarlet fire dragon arm, and the third purple thousand-year soul ring was beating behind him.

Endless magma seemed to appear on the fire dragon's right arm, and the flames with a violent breath were so powerful.

Liu Erlong's figure disappeared in an instant, and appeared above the mysterious man the next moment.

"Since you don't dare to reveal the truth, then don't reveal it."

Liu Erlong attacked the mysterious man without any hesitation, as if to split a mountain.

"Liu Erlong, you are crazy. The Sect Master asked me to come here."

The mysterious man saw that Liu Erlong was really going to kill him, and a look of panic appeared in his eyes under the brim of his hat.

But after saying this and bringing up the sect leader behind him, he tragically discovered that Liu Erlong seemed to have increased his soul power a bit.

"Liu Erlong you are crazy!!!"

"Fourth soul skill - Thunder body protection."
