Chapter 80 Dugu Bo's world has collapsed! Grandpa couldn't beat him and chickened out!
Dugu Yan became increasingly angry as she spoke, and her eyes even reddened.
"He bullied me from head to toe! I've never suffered such injustice in my entire life!"
Dugu Yan would never say that her most serious injury was actually in that pert spot covered by her tight leather pants.
Her skin was already raw and bleeding from the beating, and the burning pain made her restless and forced her to walk very carefully.
How could she possibly talk about this shameful wound in front of her grandfather?
As Dugu Bo listened to his granddaughter's tearful account and looked at the marks on her arm, a surge of anger suddenly ignited within him.
He had just suffered humiliation at Lin Ye's hands and was seething with anger. Now, hearing that his precious granddaughter was being bullied like this, he could no longer suppress the murderous aura that belonged to a titled Douluo.
"What?!"
Dugu Bo's face instantly darkened, and the dark green soul power around him uncontrollably dissipated, causing the grass clippings on the ground to fly everywhere.
"This is outrageous!"
"Who is so bold as to dare to touch my granddaughter, Dugu Bo!"
He said through gritted teeth.
"Don't worry, Yan Yan, tell Grandpa what that person looks like and what his features are!"
I'll turn this Sunset Forest upside down to find him and make him wish he were dead!
Seeing that her grandfather was angry for her sake, Dugu Yan was overjoyed.
She could almost see that despicable man kneeling before her, being tortured to the point of death by her grandfather's deadly poison.
"That's wonderful, Grandpa!"
Dugu Yan excitedly shook Dugu Bo's arm, a joyful smile spreading across her face.
"That guy was young, wearing a long blue robe, and his strength was quite strange; he specialized in using disgusting vines..."
She was describing the scene with great enthusiasm, preparing to have her grandfather set off immediately to seek revenge.
Just then, a detached voice sounded faintly from behind Dugu Bo.
Keep the change, please.
The sound wasn't loud, but it clearly reached the ears of the grandfather and grandson.
Dugu Yan's words came to an abrupt halt. She subconsciously looked towards the source of the sound and noticed that there was someone standing next to her grandfather.
A young man with a handsome face and a calm expression, dressed in a blue robe.
The moment she saw that face, the excitement and pleasure on Dugu Yan's face froze, replaced by a fear that came from the depths of her soul.
"ah!"
She let out a short scream, her body jolted as if electrocuted, and instinctively took several steps back, hiding directly behind Dugu Bo, peeking out only her head and looking at Lin Ye with fear in her eyes.
It's...it's him!
This is the devil!
What's he doing here?! And standing with Grandpa?!
Lin Ye glanced at her calmly, then spoke slowly.
"I was the one who hit him."
A simple sentence, devoid of any emotion, yet it struck Dugu Bo like a thunderclap from the heavens!
Before Dugu Yan could fully recover from the shock, emboldened by her grandfather's support, she pointed at Lin Ye and shouted at Dugu Bo:
"Grandpa! It's him!"
"This bastard hit me! Quick! Get revenge for me! Use your Azure Phosphorous Serpent King Venom to poison him to death!"
However, the scene she had envisioned—where her grandfather would fly into a rage and subdue the other party—did not occur.
All she saw was that her grandfather, a titled Douluo who was always fearless, suddenly stiffened upon hearing those words.
Dugu Bo's face, at a speed visible to the naked eye, changed from its previous gloomy and furious expression to deathly pale, and then from deathly pale to ashen.
He slowly, inch by inch, turned his head to look at Lin Ye beside him.
There was no trace of ferocity left in his eyes, only an overwhelming sense of fear and despair.
revenge?
How can we take revenge?
Are you willing to risk your old life?
He couldn't even scratch a hair on the opponent's head. His ninth soul skill, which he had used with all his might, was nothing more than a tickle in front of the opponent.
Now, his good-for-nothing granddaughter is actually pointing her finger at him in front of him and asking him to poison him.
At that moment, Dugu Bo felt dizzy and a chill ran from the soles of his feet straight to the top of his head.
It's over.
That's it, everything's over.
This man's strength is unfathomable, and his temperament is as cold as ice. If he gets displeased... forget about revenge, neither he nor his grandson will be able to leave this valley alive today.
"Smack!"
A crisp sound.
Dugu Bo suddenly turned his head and slapped Dugu Yan, who was still shouting, across the face.
He didn't use his soul power in that slap, but the force was definitely not light.
Dugu Yan was completely stunned by the blow. She covered her reddened cheek and stared blankly at her grandfather.
"Grandpa...you...you hit me?"
"I'm going to beat you up, you unfilial grandson!"
Dugu Bo was trembling with anger. He pointed at Dugu Yan's nose and scolded her in a low voice.
"This esteemed one is a soul beast, a humble and kind-hearted person. How could he possibly attack a junior like you without any reason!"
Dugu Yan was completely dumbfounded.
Your Majesty? Soul Beast?
Is he humble? Kind-hearted?
What nonsense is Grandpa talking about?
Does this pervert who beat himself so badly have anything to do with these words?
The sudden change in wind direction left her mind blank.
"explain!"
Dugu Bo questioned sharply.
"Are you hiding something? Did you provoke His Majesty first?!"
Dugu Yan was frightened by her grandfather's fierce appearance, and she protested, feeling wronged:
"I didn't... It was him, he stole my soul beast..."
"You stole your soul beast?"
Dugu Bo sneered. He knew his granddaughter's temper all too well. She was spoiled and arrogant, so it must have been her who started it.
"Did you take a fancy to Your Majesty's soul beast and try to steal it, only to get taught a lesson instead?!"
"I don't!"
Dugu Yan was so anxious she almost cried.
"Where did His Majesty hit you?!"
"..."
Dugu Bo pressed for answers; he needed to get to the bottom of things and give Lin Ye an explanation.
"He...he hit me..."
Dugu Yan's face flushed red instantly. How could she possibly say such a thing?
Does she have to tell her grandfather in front of this devil that she was beaten on the ground?
How will she ever face anyone again?!
Seeing his granddaughter's ashamed and indignant expression, yet unable to stammer out a word, and recalling her strange gait earlier, Dugu Bo immediately understood seven or eight parts of the situation.
He felt a sense of powerlessness.
This Your Majesty probably only gave his granddaughter a small lesson and didn't really go all out.
But his own granddaughter, oblivious to the danger, came to complain and demanded that he avenge her.
This is practically pushing the grandfather and grandson into a fire pit!
