Douluo Dalu: The Legend of Heavenly Ruler-Chapter 236: Wonder...?

--- Chapter 236 ---

Spirit Hall was bustling with noises, and over a hundred spirit master's academies had gathered here to attend the continental tournament.

Even though the majority of the academies literally were new and not really famous because they just stood recently.

Under the shade of the building, Shrek academy naturally stood with calm composure while keenly observing every team in the area. They are really bewildered by the number of contestants in this tournament.

Ning Rongrong frowned slightly beside Oscar because from what she remembered, only a few teams from empires or renowned schools could attend this tournament.

However, it seemed that this year several schools with some favored seedlings could attend the continental tournament, which surprisingly was accepted by the Spirit Hall.

"Also... What with those people, their auras are so intimidating." Ning Rongrong slowly moved her gaze to Spirit Hall's golden generation, who confidently stood beside Tyrant Academy's chosen.

"They are strong." Ma Xiaotao solemnly commented while looking at the golden generation from her veil. "However, we could handle it."

Dai Mubai glanced at the star luo empire's team and saw a few familiar figures, but a person he yearned for wasn't there for some reason.

"Zhuqing..." He quietly muttered while remembering his childhood.

Zhu Zhuyun's eyes scanned through the arena's venue, but she couldn't find Yunlong's figure at all. "Young master." She whispered while holding herself to not shiver in delight.

Dai Weisi approached her and calmly asked, "How is the preparation?"

Zhu Zhuyun's demeanor immediately became indifferent, and her eyes glanced at Dai Wusi a little. "Hmph, My preparation already finished a long time ago." She swayed her head.

She played with her hair a bit and indifferently added, "I'm not like you who couldn't finish a simple task from the young master."

"Is that so?" Dai Weisi unresponsively responded.

Zhu Zhuyun briefly sneered and shook her head because her ex-fiance was nothing but a mere puppet now. She should have been angry at Yunlong for doing this, but why should she?

"hmm... I couldn't wait." She moved her gaze to the spirit hall's team.

Liu Erlong smirked when looking at the scenery because it's been a while for her to see many soul masters in one place.

"This tournament is going to be interesting." She commented while thinking about Yunlong.

Liu Erlong noticed a familiar guy walking around the venue with a stern expression plastered on his face.

"Xiaogang." She indifferently said while leaning against a window. "It seemed that you still didn't realize your mistakes."

"He won't... No, he never changes." She added while shaking her head.

Liu Erlong remembered her moment with Yu Xiaogang, but those memories quickly faded into darkness.

"That was an unpleasant moment."

"Let's think about something else." She commented while thinking about a young man who saved her.

Yunlong and Bibi Dong naturally walked on the quiet corridor with calm expressions on their faces.

"Ah, yes. What happened to your appearance?" Bibi Dong casually asked because her son's new looks are somehow more attractive.

Yunlong chuckled for a moment and wryly answered, "It's the side effect of the curse-cleansing."

"You might get surprised, but..." He suddenly initiated his angel wings, which slowly unfurled on his back.

Bibi Dong was amazed because only someone who has the Six-Winged Angel martial soul could possess such wings.

"Martial soul evolution?" Bibi Dong asked while looking at the silvery feather wings.

"Nope." Yunlong casually shook his head. "However, my dragon martial souls definitely got an upgrade."

"I see..." Bibi Dong suddenly felt comforted by his aura and instinctively released a sigh of relief.

They walked toward the wooden house within the hidden garden and saw Kaguya hurriedly move her head to them.

"I'm back." Yunlong smiled slightly.

"What happened to you?" Kaguya instantly arrived in front of him.

She swiftly checked Yunlong's entire body with her byakugan and discovered nothing wrong but instead found that his spirit and spiritual energy abruptly increased by three folds.

Yunlong's atmosphere has changed tremendously because he usually possesses this kind of wild aura from his body, but now it's more composed with faint warmth.

"You've changed...?" Kaguya slowly tilted her head in confusion.

"Not really." Yunlong chuckled, which caused Kaguya to become even more confused.

He shook his head and calmly explained what happened yesterday to Kaguya. She listened attentively but immediately frowned upon hearing Qian Renxue was the one who cured his curse.

"...Did you have sex with her?" Kaguya abruptly asked, which left Yunlong speechless for a moment.

Yunlong didn't expect her to ask such a question, but he couldn't deny his actions and nodded his head quietly.

Kaguya stared at Yunlong's eyes and silently lowered her head because she bizarrely felt bitter inside. "What's this sensation?" She muttered solemnly.

"There there." Yunlong gently patted Kaguya's head, which caught her off guard.

Kaguya's eyes widened because a warm sensation gradually covered the bitterness in her heart. She glanced at Yunlong, who smiled at her and inwardly questioned herself for a moment.

'I need time to understand this feeling.' Kaguya thought while walking away.

"Kaguya." Yunlong called her name.

Kaguya's steps abruptly were halted, but Yunlong didn't say anything afterward and only threw a pill bag at him.

She caught the pill bag without any problem and stared at it for a few seconds. "Thank you..." She responded softly.

"Are you not gonna talk with her?" Bibi Dong asked while looking at Kaguya, who walked away from them.

"I can't push her feelings for me," Yunlong answered while shaking his head bitterly.

"She had to realize it by herself." He continued, to which Bibi Dong responded with a nod.

Bibi Dong observed Kaguya's stoic expression from afar and casually commented, "Well, it's your choice."

They moved to the wooden house and discovered Gu Yuena comfortably sitting on the couch with a warm cup of tea in her hand.

"Oh, you finally come back-." Gu Yuena's body shivered when sensing Yunlong's blood.

It's been a while since Gu Yuena felt this sensation, a familiar presence of the dragon god, which should be impossible to appear in this world until she met Golden Dragon King and becomes whole again.

She hurriedly lifted her body and demanded, "Yunlong, explain!"
