Douluo: Unbeatable from Capturing a Goddess

Luo Yu stood sideways before Yan, his clothes billowing, his black hair dancing in the air.

Sword in hand, he was like a sword immortal.

"Crrack!"

The Bone-Penetrating Nail spun rapidly, friction sparking against the sword's ancient and translucent jade-like body.

It was powerfully formidable, yet it failed to leave the slightest scratch on the sword.

Though the sword was unharmed, Luo Yu wasn't as fortunate.

After all, the attack came from a Hyper Douluo expert. Even if it was done casually, just after Luo Yu had awakened his Martial Soul, whether it was his Divine Body or extraordinary Martial Soul, how could he resist it just because he willed it?

With a "bang," an explosion sounded!

The Bone-Penetrating Nail exhausted its strength and burst instantly.

Blocking that move took its toll on Luo Yu.

He let out a muffled grunt, a sweet, metallic taste rising in his throat as he was forced back dozens of steps. Luckily, Yan was quick to support him.

"Huh?"

Though Luo Yu was disheveled, the Seventh Elder's fierce expression was replaced by instant hesitation and utter shock.

Even though he had only struck contemptuously, killing a Soul Ancestor was as easy as squashing an ant for him.

Yet, that strike was unexpectedly blocked by this youngster who had just awakened his Martial Soul?

"Brother Yu!!"

An anxious cry rang out.

Seeing the man using his body to protect her brother, letting out a pained grunt, Hulena's heart ached tremendously. Without care for herself, she rushed towards Luo Yu.

Yan was also baffled, shock evident in his voice, "You... why did you save me?"

"Cough cough."

Luo Yu didn't immediately respond. Instead, he raised his hand and glanced at his Nine Heavens Execution Sword.

Unscathed.

Tsk tsk, not to mention anything else, this material was really good.

And it seemed that, while holding this sword, his speed felt as if it was specially augmented.

A fragrant breeze wafted over, Hulena's beautiful eyes wide with concern as she stared at Luo Yu.

"Brother Yu, how are you?"

Luo Yu waved his hand, showing his signature faint smile, "It's nothing serious. But that old thing's strike was quite vicious, sending my qi and blood into turmoil."

Hulena asked with concern and rebuke, "Why did you block it for him? Don't you know it could have hurt you?"

"Crack! Crack!!"

These were the sounds of Yan's heart breaking. Was this the legendary scenario of forgetting one's brother after having a man?

Luo Yu looked into Hulena's sparkling eyes, his mouth curving slightly upwards, "If I hadn't acted, that strike from the old man just now would have left you without a brother, wouldn't it?"

"Brother Yu~" Hulena's call was soft, a surge of different emotions welling up inside her, her nose slightly sour.

That was it, her strong affection was completely falling for him, Yan lamented internally.

"Okay, I was just teasing," Luo Yu said seriously, "I have my principles. Since your brother spoke up for me, I had to save him."

"And tell me, were you about to cry just now?"

"Hmph! Who was going to cry? Don't underestimate me," Hulena retorted, tilting her pert, petite nose upward and striving to hold back the moisture in the corners of her eyes.

"Haha, you dare to ignore me?"

The Seventh Elder's expression was dark, a cruel light flickering in his eyes.

"Boy, you do have some skills, even I can't help but admire you a bit. But no matter how talented you are, if you don't understand hierarchy, you are just a pest."

"Now, for this next move, let's see how you handle it!"

"Swish!"

An amethyst spear over a hundred feet long condensed in midair, emitting an aura of bloodthirsty slaughter as it targeted Luo Yu.

Yan's scalp tingled.

Hulena's beautiful eyes trembled.

Luo Yu, unperturbed, swished a silver sword flower with his hand, sending out a clear ringing of a sword.

"Enough, you two get out of here. Let me deal with this old man myself."

Hulena kept silent, biting her lip and stubbornly standing her ground, defiantly staring up at the sky.

Yan had just taken a step with his quivering legs when he saw the man and woman standing together, his face flushed with shame. Grinding his teeth, he took his foot back and cursed heavenward.

"Seventh Elder, my sister is a goddess. Dare you move against her, aren't you afraid of being held accountable?"

"Heh, she might be your precious goddess, but isn't my disciple also precious?" the Seventh Elder retorted with a menacing, contorted face.

"Fall!"

The huge spear in the sky stabbed down fiercely, riding a foul wind.

Luo Yu suddenly smiled because he saw the amethyst gold shadow appearing in the sky.

An imperious and majestic woman's scolding sound emerged, as if a phoenix cried from the heavens.

"Old thing, if you dare touch my man, I'll have your dog life!"

The empress's majestic voice was deafening, creating ripples even in the air, echoes upon echoes.

The Seventh Elder's hand shivered, and his attack abruptly ceased, warily looking towards the distance.

There, a streak of light flashed past, and a peerlessly beautiful silhouette hurried over, crowned and graceful, her beauty extreme, her phoenix eyes appearing to shoot flames.

Without a word, she raised her hand and struck mightily. An Amethyst Gold spider shadow appeared in the sky, instantly shattering the hundred-foot-long spear and resolving the crisis.

The Seventh Elder glared at the newcomer, furiously asking, "Bibi Dong, even if my disciple is crippled, don't I deserve an explanation?"

Bibi Dong, as if hearing nothing, turned her gaze, looking worriedly at Luo Yu.

"Are you alright!"

"I'm fine."

Upon Luo Yu's response, Bibi Dong visibly relaxed.

"Bibi Dong! I'm talking to you." The Seventh Elder, having been ignored, became immediately enraged.

The Empress turned her gaze, her phoenix eyes narrowing, looking at the Seventh Elder coldly. The temperature around her plummeted in an instant, as if turning the place into a frozen hell, and her icy voice rang out.

"Old thing, you should count yourself lucky he's unharmed; otherwise, today I would take your dog life."

The Seventh Elder tensed, for he truly saw a murderous intent in Bibi Dong's eyes, not a hint of jest in them. He pointed at Yan, his expression livid.

"Look at that, my disciple has been beaten to this state, do you expect me to do nothing?"

"Heh." The Empress glanced sideways, scoffing coldly, "Yan? What is Yan, to compare with Luo Yu?"

The Seventh Elder's face became as still as water. "I demand justice!"

"Justice?"

Bibi Dong's aura erupted suddenly, overwhelming, completely crushing down on the Seventh Elder, "Old thing, let me tell you, if there's trouble, it's your disciple who started it, every mistake is his fault. If you dare to get him hurt, then prepare to die."

"You... you... you're bullying too much!" In a rage compounded by being overwhelmed by the empress's aura, the Seventh Elder spat out a mouthful of old blood. Bibi Dong's cultivation level was too high; he dared not strike.

"Burst!"

The Spider Emperor Phantom appeared, Amethyst Gold Soul Power covering the sky, the Empress's majesty fully revealed.

"Old thing, enough talk, take that trash with you."

"Scram!"

"I... I'll go to the Great Elder to seek justice!" The Seventh Elder bellowed like a mourning beast, wrapping up Yan with his Soul Power, and fled away, disappearing into the sky.

"Hmph!"

The Empress snorted coldly, her anger not yet subsided, looking unsatisfied as she let him go.

It was only because of his status as the Pope; otherwise, she would have wanted to obliterate the old thing herself.

Anyone who dared to touch her man deserved death!

Bibi Dong was angry, and the stunning silver silhouette that had always been lurking in the shadows revealed an expression ready to kill, holding a spatial blade in hand, ready to strike at any moment.

"Da Wu, I need to take care of something. Go back to his side, and don't let him get hurt," said Gu Yuena, her purple eyes looking in the direction where the Seventh Elder had left, her lips touched by cold indifference, her figure vanishing from the spot.

The enchantingly beautiful woman with lingering allure looked helplessly at the place where Gu Yuena had disappeared, her mesmerizing eyes full of reluctance, "I wanted to help my benefactor just now. It was only because you insisted on being angry about him having another woman outside, and you didn't let me take action, insisting on letting him take a bit of suffering."

Shaking her head, she transformed back into the cute pink Soft Bone Charming Rabbit and hopped towards Luo Yu's direction.

The outside world wasn't good; only the benefactor's arms were warm.

Within the scorched garden.

Evil Moon, with his mouth wide open, gazed up at the sky, the empress's domineering posture deeply imprinted in his heart.

"Wow, does this brother really have such powerful backers? This is terrifying."

Turning his head to see Luo Yu, still looking unperturbed, he inwardly exclaimed.

"With talent like this, with backing like this, what am I waiting for not currying favor? Am I an idiot?"

"No, when I get back, I must emphasize this to my sister!"

"Where else would you find a man with such good prospects."

Empress Bibi Dong alighted on the ground, grabbed Luo Yu's arm without uttering a word, utterly ignoring Hulena and Evil Moon's astonished gazes, and dragged him away.

Evil Moon watched as the two vanished, seemingly seeing something unbelievable, his lips trembling, "What's the relationship between the Empress and him? Doesn't her majesty always avoid intimacy with men?!"

"Don't ask me, how would I know!"

Hulena was distracted, pursing her red lips as she watched the spot where Luo Yu disappeared, her heart filled with reluctance.

Recalling how her teacher had been pulling Luo Yu, a twinge of jealousy stirred within her, leaving her in a foul mood.

A wild thought suddenly blossomed in her mind.

The teacher... Could the teacher possibly have feelings for Brother Yu?

No, that shouldn't be the case!

How could it be?

Meanwhile, Luo Yu had already been brought back to the sleeping quarters by Bibi Dong.

"Bang!"

Luo Yu was thrown onto the bed by the stunningly beautiful Empress...
