Chapter 199 – Just Because I Am Lin Yu!
"Dead Chrysanthemum, I don't recall ever being friends with a disgusting guy like you. What business do you people have in my Dugu Mansion? You're not welcome here."
Hearing Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan's voice, Dugu Bo soared into the sky from his mansion. With his arms crossed, his sinister face was full of cold disdain as he looked at Bibi Dong and her two companions.
"Hehe, Dugu Bo, Dugu Bo… you really don't know, or are you just pretending not to?"
Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan curved his lips into a mocking smile.
"In front of our Spirit Hall, I don't believe the Heaven Dou royal family, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan haven't already come to you. As for our purpose here, I'm certain you know it well."
"Old Poison, let me give you some advice—when it comes to heavenly treasures, only the strong have the right to possess them!"
"Since you are a Titled Douluo, we in Spirit Hall will not seize the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well by force. However, those immortal herbs—you must hand over a few stalks to Spirit Hall. Otherwise, don't blame us for being impolite!"
"Hahaha!!"
But upon hearing Yue Guan's words, Dugu Bo immediately threw his head back and laughed, before replying with scorn.
"Old Chrysanthemum, you're right—the Heaven Dou royal family, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan have indeed visited my Dugu Mansion, with the same purpose as yours."
"But you guessed wrong about the outcome. Not one of them managed to take away a single immortal herb from me—and Spirit Hall will be no different!"
"How dare you! Dugu Bo, must you refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit instead?!"
Seeing that Dugu Bo still refused to yield and wouldn't hand over any immortal herbs to Spirit Hall, Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan's eyes flashed coldly as he shouted.
As for Dugu Bo's strength, Chrysanthemum Douluo knew it well.
With just his ability, he was no match for the Sword and Bone Douluos of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, nor for Yu Yuanzhen, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's Blue Lightning Douluo.
Under the combined pressure of the Heaven Dou royal family, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Dugu Bo shouldn't have been able to refuse at all!
"I'd say it's your Spirit Hall that's being bold!"
Just as Yue Guan finished his shout, a loud, cold laugh rang out. A flash of lightning shot into the sky and instantly appeared at Dugu Bo's side.
It was a youth of about sixteen or seventeen, clad in black robes, with long black hair cascading over his shoulders. His face was handsome, his aura stern and imposing.
Behind him, a pair of dazzling silver bone wings, infused with the power of wind and thunder, spread wide and flapped lightly, crackling with arcs of lightning.
"Young Master, you're here!"
Seeing Lin Yu arrive, Dugu Bo immediately bowed slightly in respect.
"You brat, who are you, to dare meddle in the affairs of Spirit Hall?"
Noticing that Dugu Bo had called Lin Yu "Young Master," Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan frowned deeply, suspicion flickering in his heart. Still, he kept his face cold as he barked at Lin Yu.
Although he was shocked at Dugu Bo's deference, as a Titled Douluo of Spirit Hall and representative of Pope Bibi Dong herself, Yue Guan could not show the slightest hint of fear or retreat before Lin Yu.
At the same time, Bibi Dong's brows furrowed slightly, her heart full of unease.
That Poison Douluo Dugu Bo—so prideful as he was—actually called this young man "Young Master"? For him to bow his head to someone else was almost unthinkable.
If this was true, then what sort of background did this youth—or the force behind him—have to subdue Dugu Bo?
"Hmph! Me meddling in your Spirit Hall's affairs? What a joke!"
"The Bi Lin Clan has already pledged loyalty to me. The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well has already been offered to me by Senior Dugu Bo. It's my possession now. And Spirit Hall wants to rob me of my things—do you expect me to sit idly by?"
Lin Yu sneered in reply.
"Hahaha! Boy, aren't you afraid people will laugh their teeth out? You, making this Old Poison submit to you? He must've just put on an act with you, trying to fool us!"
Hearing Lin Yu claim that Dugu Bo had submitted to him, Chrysanthemum Douluo burst into mocking laughter.
"Boy, let me tell you this—no matter whose hands the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well is in, heavenly treasures belong only to the strong!"
"We Spirit Hall won't seize the Well by force, but you must hand over a few immortal herbs to us. Otherwise, we'll show you by force who truly rules the Douluo Continent!"
"What do you mean, 'just because'? Just because my name is Lin Yu!"
Seeing Yue Guan's face full of mockery, Lin Yu merely gave a cold laugh and spoke bluntly.
"Since you of Spirit Hall also claim that heavenly treasures belong only to the strong, then let's settle it the same way as with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. As long as you can defeat me, I will hand over the immortal herbs willingly!"
"What? Your name is Lin Yu?!"
The moment Lin Yu revealed his name, the mocking expression froze on Yue Guan's face, replaced with shock as he cried out in disbelief.
Beside him, Ghost Douluo Gui Mei and Bibi Dong also changed color, their hearts shaken.
To subdue Dugu Bo, and to be called Lin Yu—could this boy be the same Lin Yu from the livestream?
"That's right. It's me. Spirit Hall—if you want my immortal herbs, then show me your strength!"
Seeing Yue Guan's face pale, Lin Yu didn't care. With a cold smile, he instantly summoned his Golden Dragon martial soul and entered Martial Soul Possession.
At the same time, the Chaos Green Lotus martial soul appeared behind him. From it, the God-Slaying Spear and the Earth-Yellow Banner split forth. The banner hovered above his head, while the spear pointed obliquely toward Bibi Dong and the two Douluos.
Thanks to the Mirage Dragon's concealment, the Chaos Green Lotus and the Earth-Yellow Banner remained hidden from view.
To Bibi Dong and the two Douluos, Lin Yu had simply summoned his Golden Dragon martial soul, possessed it, and conjured a terrifying black-energy-shrouded spear that pointed at them.
Beneath his feet, seven spirit rings rose into the air—yellow, black, black, black, black, black, black-gold—surrounding his body in brilliant light.
"Boy, don't get too arrogant! Even if you are that Lin Yu, when it comes to Spirit Hall, you'd better show some respect!"
Seeing how Lin Yu completely disregarded Spirit Hall, Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan was deeply displeased.
So what if this really was the Lin Yu from the livestream? His spirit ring configuration might be impressive, and his techniques powerful, but his cultivation was still no more than that of a mere Soul Sage.
No matter how strong he was, could he possibly stand against the two of them and the Pope herself?
