Chapter 306: Yang Wudi Takes Action Personally
The members of the Breaking Clan had originally been just about to launch a joint attack to tear apart the Thunder Domain. However, the moment they heard that voice, they instinctively stopped.
Yu Tianlin, who had also heard that familiar voice, dispersed his Thunder Domain at once, revealing himself, and greeted the newcomer, "Senior Yang Wudi, it's been a long time."
That's right. The only person in the Breaking Clan who could make all of them stop so instantly was naturally their Clan Leader, Yang Wudi.
However, the moment Yang Wudi saw that the person surrounded by his clansmen was actually Yu Tianlin, his face immediately turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
Although 5 years had passed, and Yu Tianlin had grown a great deal and changed significantly, Yang Wudi still recognized him at a glance. After all, Yang Wudi's impression of Yu Tianlin had been unusually deep. It wasn't to the point where he would recognize him even if he turned to ashes, but the changes over the past few years were clearly not enough to make him unrecognizable.
After Yu Tianlin dispersed the Thunder Domain, the members of the Breaking Clan who had been trapped within it were finally free to move. Seeing their Clan Leader arrive, one of the more senior members immediately stepped forward and reported, "Clan Leader, it's this person. He's from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan…"
"I don't need you to tell me!" Yang Wudi waved his hand and cut him off before he could finish. He let out an angry laugh and said, "Yu Tianlin, you actually dare to show your face in front of me again! Do you really think my Breaking Clan is easy to bully?!"
As soon as his voice fell, a black spear, roughly 12 feet long, appeared in Yang Wudi's hand. Two yellow, two purple, and four black spirit rings, an optimal 8 ring configuration, coiled around the spear. Its tip locked directly onto Yu Tianlin, and without the slightest hesitation, Yang Wudi thrust it down at him.
The instant Yang Wudi made his move, Yu Tianlin's expression turned serious.
This felt completely different from facing the 2 Soul Breaking Spear Spirit Kings earlier. The difference was not merely one of cultivation.
Even while furious, Yang Wudi's essence, qi, and spirit were all completely concentrated on the Soul Breaking Spear in his hand. The aura he carried now, that unstoppable will to pierce through everything, was astonishingly sharp. If Yu Tianlin was careless for even a moment, he could be seriously wounded in an instant. He had to treat this as a real battle.
However, Yu Tianlin and Ye Lingling had not left the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan alone this time. Yu Luomian had been protecting them from the shadows all along. He had no need to interfere in ordinary matters, but in his view, the current situation had already become dangerous. So this time, he immediately revealed himself.
Just as Yu Tianlin was about to erupt with his own power, Yu Luomian appeared beside him like a flash of lightning. His entire right arm had already entered Dragonization, and violent arcs of electricity crackled across it. Without hesitation, he reached out and directly grabbed Yang Wudi's Soul Breaking Spear.
Yu Luomian was clearly both highly skilled and fearless. He actually dared to directly confront Yang Wudi's Soul Breaking Spear, a martial soul whose attack power was so overwhelming that it could rival that of a Titled Douluo.
Yang Wudi's reaction was also extremely quick. The instant the spear was about to be seized, the 1st spirit ring around his body lit up, and a powerful vibration erupted from the Soul Breaking Spear. He clearly intended to use this trembling force to shake Yu Luomian's dragon claw apart.
He was supremely confident in himself. No matter who it was, even a Titled Douluo, no one should be able to catch his Soul Breaking Spear this way.
Yet what happened next surprised Yang Wudi.
Although the vibration he released was extremely powerful, it had no effect on that dragon claw at all. The claw continued forward without the slightest pause and firmly seized the spear shaft.
It was actually completely understandable.
Yu Luomian's spirit power was already 1 rank higher than Yang Wudi's. The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's Dragonization secret technique was also superior to the Breaking Clan's extreme attack methods. On top of that, Yu Luomian had absorbed limb Spirit Bones, making his current dragon claw incomparably sturdy. With so many advantages stacked together, catching a Soul Breaking Spear head on was only natural.
The instant the dragon claw gripped the spear shaft, the spirit power of both sides erupted at the same time. A violent gust of wind burst outward from the point of contact, and some of the weaker Breaking Clan disciples nearby were blown straight back.
Yu Tianlin stood closest to the clash, so the pressure he felt was naturally the strongest. Fortunately, his own strength was already formidable. Not only was he unaffected, but he could even shield Ye Lingling behind him with ease.
The fierce wind quickly subsided.
Although Yang Wudi had been briefly startled when his Soul Breaking Spear was seized, he had no intention of letting the situation continue. Spirit power surged through him as he prepared to use another Spirit Ability to break free.
But just then, Yu Luomian released the spear of his own accord and said, "Yang Wudi, after all these years, you've actually regressed. To directly attack a junior, aren't you ashamed?"
"Yu Luomian."
Yang Wudi's anger eased slightly, but after recognizing Yu Luomian, his mouth still twitched, and he said sourly, "So you old fellow actually managed to become a Titled Douluo."
At the mention of this, Yang Wudi felt a surge of irritation.
Not long after Yu Tianlin had tricked him into handing over all that information about Immortal Herbs, news came from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan that Yu Luomian had broken through and become a Titled Douluo. Because of that, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan directly rose into the ranks of powers possessing 2 Titled Douluo.
Anyone familiar with Yu Luomian knew that he had been stuck at rank 89 for over 20 years, unable to take that final step. Yet now he had suddenly become a Titled Douluo. Many people found it baffling, but Yang Wudi understood all too well. This old fellow had clearly relied on the power of an Immortal Herb.
And without the detailed information on those Immortal Herbs provided by the Breaking Clan, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan would never have dared to use them recklessly, even if they had them in hand. In other words, the Breaking Clan had practically helped them enormously in this matter.
The more Yang Wudi thought about it, the more his heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys all ached together. He glared fiercely at Yu Tianlin beside him. "Yu Tianlin, so this is your confidence? No wonder you dared to come swaggering into my Breaking Clan. Quite a grand display, bringing a Titled Douluo along as your bodyguard."
"Senior Yang, you misunderstand." Yu Tianlin replied calmly, "Even without Second Grandfather's protection, I wouldn't be afraid. Your strength is indeed formidable, but not enough to make me shrink back. I have some confidence in myself. In fact, I originally planned to come alone."
Yu Tianlin had said those words deliberately to provoke him.
In Yu Tianlin's view, with Yang Wudi's personality, asking for his help in the current situation would almost certainly require defeating him first. And not just defeating him, but doing so personally. Only after that, with both pressure and persuasion, could this matter truly be settled.
