Chapter 131: Poison Douluo is Here Again
Chapter 131 - 131: Poison Douluo is Here AgainDan Heng didn't expect "Xue Qinghe" to be so decisive.
In just a few days, the imperial examination system was already being implemented. And not just in various kingdoms and duchies, but directly in Heaven Dou City.
Most likely, "Xue Qinghe" was concerned that nobles in other regions would obstruct the process.
By holding the first examination in the capital, he could at least ensure its legitimacy while also securing the loyalty of the commoner officials who would later be assigned to various fiefdoms.
Killing two birds with one stone.
At the same time, this was also a means of consolidating imperial power.
Since it had already begun, "Xue Qinghe" would surely be occupied for some time and wouldn't come to bother him again.
Dan Heng was quite pleased with this outcome.
The next morning.
Dan Heng and Gu Yuena left home together, heading to work at Blue Tyrant Academy.
The two were still colleagues, so they had plenty of shared topics to discuss.
Gu Yuena mentioned that while training the Blue Tyrant Battle Team was just a temporary interest, she would still do her best in the role.
Dan Heng could tell that she was actually quite competitive.
He didn't discourage her and, after asking about her plans, learned that Gu Yuena intended to use the Four Elemental Academies to sharpen the Blue Tyrant Battle Team.
Of course, whether or not they could get Liu Erlong's assistance was still uncertain.
Since Blue Tyrant Academy was located on the outskirts of the city, the two walked along a street close to the city walls. This area wasn't very busy in the morning, mostly used by people out for a jog.
When they were about a kilometer away from their destination, a figure suddenly dropped down from the sky, blocking their path.
Gu Yuena "frightenedly" shrank into Dan Heng's arms. "Husband..."
Dan Heng patted her shoulder and spoke gently, "It's fine. He's someone I know."
Indeed, the person who had appeared was none other than Poison Douluo.
The ten-day deadline hadn't yet passed, but upon hearing that Dan Heng had cured Dugu Yan, Poison Douluo could no longer wait.
Besides, the person who had set that ten-day restriction on him wouldn't even know that he had snuck into the city.
As long as he left right after speaking to Dan Heng, it wasn't like anyone would come after him, right?
"You little brat, so young and already up to no good. But you sure found a wife fast!" Poison Douluo sneered, his tone carrying a hint of resentment.
He had initially planned to rope Dan Heng in as his grandson-in-law.
Who would have thought that without a word, Dan Heng had already gotten married?
And looking at his wife...
Good heavens. No wonder his granddaughter had come back with such a foul mood. Dan Heng had an eye for women!
Even in the imperial palace, there probably wasn't anyone who could match this woman's beauty. Maybe only Tang Yuehua from Yuexuan could barely compare?
Dan Heng remained calm as he looked at Poison Douluo. "Poison Douluo, you're here for that treatment method? It won't work for you."
Gu Yuena narrowed her eyes. This old man... What was with that tone?
She recalled Dugu Yan's strange behavior.
It was impossible that no one had influenced her—Poison Douluo had practically confessed just now. And now, he even dared to break his own promise by showing up early?
Poison Douluo shivered inexplicably. Rolling his eyes, he admitted, "You're right. I tried it, and it didn't really have much effect."
From this perspective, Dan Heng was truly considerate.
"But I still wanted to ask if you've made any new breakthroughs... Also, aside from the original deal, do you have any other conditions in mind?"
Poison Douluo asked nonchalantly.
He hesitated to confess that he had already lost ownership of his medicinal garden.
Dan Heng shook his head. "From what I can see, there's nothing about you that I need."
"..." Poison Douluo's mouth twitched.
On the entire Douluo Continent, probably only Dan Heng dared to say such a thing so casually, without the slightest fear of offending him.
And the worst part was, Dan Heng was completely serious—not trying to provoke or joke, just stating a fact.
"Fine, you just keep re
Gu Yuena said.
Liu Erlong nodded repeatedly, gritting her teeth. "If those little brats dare to embarrass me, I'll deal with them myself!"
Chatting as they walked, the two women entered the academy.
The Blue Tyrant Battle Team had no idea what kind of formidable opponent awaited them.
