Chapter 20. Golden Triangle
The day after Jue Gui, the Golden Iron Triangle, was promoted to Titled Douluo, the Spirit Hall's Pope Qian Xunji and the Worship Hall's Golden Crocodile Douluo jointly completed Jue Gui's coronation ceremony and announced it to the world.
As the protagonists of this coronation ceremony, Jue Gui and the two Titled Douluos were extremely happy. From then on, those below the title level were required to address them as "Your Majesty."
After the coronation ceremony for Jue Gui and the two Titled Douluos, they officially became Guardian Douluos of the Pope's Palace.
Qian Xunji sat on the Pope's throne, his five fingers spread out on the armrests. At this time, Saras entered the Pope's Temple.
"Salas, how is the investigation I asked you to investigate going?" Qian Xunji asked.
Saras said, "Your Majesty, according to my investigation, the three members of the Golden Iron Triangle are operating near the Star Dou Great Forest, presumably to hunt for the fifth spirit ring for Liu Erlong." Saras said.
Qian Xunji nodded. Bibi Dong beside him murmured: "The Golden Iron Triangle?"
Quickly reacting, she looked at Qianxunji warily and said, "Teacher, why are you investigating the Golden Triangle? Do you want to do something to Xiaogang?"
Qianxunji motioned Bibi Dong to calm down. He said earnestly, "Dong'er, why are we investigating the Golden Triangle? It's for your own good."
"What?" Bibi Dong was stunned for a moment.
Qianxunji smiled and said, "Teacher, I'm asking you, do you like Xiaogang?"
"..." Bibi Dong didn't know how to answer Qianxunji for a moment. Of course she liked Xiaogang, but she was afraid that if she said she liked Xiaogang, Qianxunji would get angry and hurt the innocent Xiaogang, so she simply didn't answer.
Qianxunji said, "You don't have to lie to me. I know you've always loved Xiaogang in your heart, right? Naturally, I won't hurt your lover on this trip. I'm helping you get rid of your love rival."
"Get rid of your love rival? Teacher, what do you mean?" Bibi Dong asked hurriedly.
"Master, I am going here to help you get rid of your love rival Liu Erlong." Qian Xunji said with a look of consideration for you.
"Wait, isn't Liu Erlong Yu Xiaogang's friend? How can she be my love rival? Xiaogang said at the beginning that he only loves me." Bibi Dong said puzzledly.
"You are too young and too simple!" Qian Xunji said nothing and directly ordered the maid to take Bibi Dong away.
When Bibi Dong was taken away, she came to her senses and said to Qian Xunji: "You broke up the fate of Yu Xiaogang and me. Do you want to break up Yu Xiaogang's happiness? Teacher, why did Xiaogang offend you?"
Qian Xunji said clearly that he was going to help him get rid of a love rival, but in the final analysis, it was just to break up Xiaogang's fate. The existence of the love rival made Bibi Dong a little jealous, but for Xiaogang's sake, Bibi Dong didn't want Qian Xunji to hurt the innocent Xiaogang again.
Qian Xunji's face turned cold, and he said, "That's enough! My tolerance for you doesn't give you a reason to act recklessly. If you say anything more, believe it or not, the next time I come back, I'll send you Xiaogang's head so you can enjoy the pleasure of being alone with him."
At the edge of the Xingdou Great Forest, three people were searching for suitable soul beast prey.
The trio consisted of three men and one woman, each protecting the man in the middle. The older man wore glasses and possessed the spirit of an owl, named Flanders.
The hot-tempered woman in a black leather jacket was named Liu Erlong, while the man in the center of the group was a middle-aged man with a crew cut and an unshaven beard. He walked calmly between the two men, his hands clasped behind his back. This man was Yu Xiaogang.
The three of them formed a renowned duo within the spirit master world, known as the Golden Iron Triangle. This trio possessed a rare, three-person spirit fusion technique, embodying exceptional synergy. Flender, the highest-ranked of the three, was a Level 52 Soul King. Liu Erlong was currently Level 50, a Quasi-Soul Master who had yet to acquire a spirit ring. Yu Xiaogang was a Level 29 Great Spirit Master. Their combined spirit fusion technique, the Golden Holy Dragon, could rival even a Soul Sage.
Their purpose was to search for a spirit beast suitable for Liu Erlong's fifth spirit ring.
Liu Erlong protected Yu Xiaogang, while Flender, using his flight ability, soared into the sky, searching for a suitable spirit beast from above.
After a long search, Flender beamed with excitement, "Erlong, I've found a ten-thousand-year-old fire-attribute spirit beast."
"Great! Thank you, Boss F," Liu Erlong exclaimed excitedly.
"Let's go, let's take a look," Yu Xiaogang said calmly and composedly.
With Flender leading the way and Liu Erlong protecting Yu Xiaogang, the trio journeyed along the edge of the Star Dou Great Forest, arriving at a destination.
A giant lizard with flames blazing from its head sensed the trio's arrival and roared angrily at them.
"Erlong, you stay and protect Xiaogang. I'll destroy that flame-headed lizard for you."
"Okay, Boss Fu, be careful," Liu Erlong said.
Flanders took the lead, charging towards the ten-thousand-year-old soul beast, using his agility-attack advantage to kite the flame lizard.
Behind them, Liu Erlong didn't dare to help Flanders. After all, Yu Xiaogang was only level twenty-nine. If she went to help Boss Fu, what if a soul beast arrived and carried Xiaogang away?
"Ahem," Yu Xiaogang coughed lightly, clasping his hands behind his back. He spoke calmly,
"This is an eleven-thousand-year-old flame-headed lizard. It inhabits the outer areas of the Star Dou Great Forest. It has a fire attribute and prefers to dwell in... It carries a trace of sub-dragon blood."
Yu Xiaogang recounted everything he knew about the lizard to Liu Erlong.
Liu Erlong's eyes sparkled as he gazed at Yu Xiaogang, admiringly saying, "Xiaogang, you're truly erudite."
"No, no," Yu Xiaogang said calmly, pushing his nose with his hand. "There's a golden house in books; I've simply read a little more."
Liu Erlong gave Yu Xiaogang a thumbs-up and said, "As expected, you're the foremost theoretical master in our spirit master world."
Immediately energized by Liu Erlong's approval, Yu Xiaogang began to ramble non-stop, eager to pour out all his knowledge of superior theory and entice this remarkable woman of both beauty and strength.
Elsewhere, after a bloody battle, wounded and battered, Flanders finally crippled the flame-headed lizard, leaving it with only its last breath. Just as he was about to call Liu Erlong in for the finishing blow,
Flanders saw Yu Xiaogang expounding on his proud spirit master world theory, while Liu Erlong's eyes shone brightly at the scene.
