Chapter 89 - Not a Needle or a Thread (1/2)

A/N: Huh, looking at yesterday's chapter, I f'ed up a lot of stuff hahaha. To clarify, this fanfiction will still stay a Douluo Dalu centric one, and hence, power levels will still follow Douluo Dalu God progression levels. Those guys I called Immortals yesterday are Gods as well and a God Star is something that's actually canon to Douluo Dalu. Also, these guys aren't OCs. If you read the actual Journey to the West, they may seem a bit familiar to you guys. If there are any characters that you guys don't recognise, it'll most likely be apart of the Chinese Myths.

When Dai Yun'er body's dropped to the ground like a potato sack, the entire arena was stunned into silence.

Not a single person could believe their eyes as of this moment. However, reality was cruel.

The glaring red mark on the princess' face as she slowly crawled up with teary eyes reminded them that not a single thing that they were watching was fake.

At the viewing area, Dai Tianling's face was burning red as he took deep breaths to try and calm himself. He really wanted to screw all the consequences and destroy Huang Yu at this moment.

Dai Tianling suddenly felt a hand on his shoulder as a gentle current of holy light energy entered his body, slightly relieving his negative thoughts. Turning his head to the side, Dai Tianling saw En Ci shaking his head.

”Don't do it.”

A deep breath was released from Dai Tianling. ”Thank you En Ci. I nearly made a horrible mistake.”

When Long Yue saw the state that Dai Yun'er was in, his expression turned dark as his fists crushed the railing he had been holding on.

The sheer darkness of the aura radiating from his body, caused the others to avoid him, hoping not to attract his ire. Even Dai Yueyan, who was furious in his own right, couldn't help but stand a little bit further away from Long Yue at that moment.

”I'll fuċkɨnġ kill him…” came a low growl from Long Yue.

The others from the Monster Academy, seeing this, felt that Huang Yu was as good as dead in their eyes.

At this moment, jeers came from the crowd as every person from Star Luo felt an anger rise up in their hearts at Huang Yu's actions.

He had just slapped their princess, the jewel of their country, like a common whore! Wasn't this considered slapping the face of the entire Star Luo Continent as well?I

In the viewing area where the rest of the Shrek Academy group was at, their expressions were very sour.

”This is bad…” Wu Zhangkong commented with a frown on his face. The situation was getting slightly out of hand right now.

A wry smile appeared on Tang Wulin's face. ”Who would have thought that Huang Yu would have the balls to do this? Even I didn't dare to take it this far...”

At this moment, Xu Xiaoyan whispered into Gu Yue's ear. ”Big Sis Yue, aren't you worried about Huang Yu? He's technically offending an entire country by himself right now…”

Gu Yue pursed her lips but kept silent. She didn't know why, she had a vague feeling that Huang Yu was up to something.

The person in question was taking in all the jeers without an expression on his face. To be honest, he was thinking of something else at the moment.

What he was thinking of, however, had yet to be seen.

”Y-you… ho-ow dare you do this to me!” Dai Yun'er's voice was wobbly as tears and snot streamed down her face. She hadn't ever been treated like this before. This was a complete affront to her!

Huang Yu cleared his throat before his face shifted into a sneer. ”You've brought this upon yourself. You refused a toast only to be forced to drink a forfeit!”

Despite the jeers in the area, Huang Yu's voice was somehow clearly heard by everyone. These words only stoked their flames even more as their jeerings got louder.

Hearing Huang Yu's words, a strange expression appeared on Gu Yue's face before it shifted into a smile, causing Xu Xiaoyan to look at her in confusion.

”Big Sis Yue, why are you smiling? The situation is only getting worse!”

A chuckle left Gu Yue's lips. ”Just keep watching. A show's starting.”

Dai Yun'er's eyes were filled with madness at this moment. Summoning her spirit rings once more, she snarled as she viciously tried to gouge out Huang Yu's eyes.

Seeing this, Huang Yu laughed mockingly. He easily dodged the attack by taking a step back before he slammed a knee into Dai Yun'er's gut, knocking out all the breath in her lungs.

It wasn't over yet, as Huang Yu continued. ”Superimposition.”

At those words, Dai Yun'er felt another hundreds of blows in her gut as she was blasted off into the corner of the ring.

Huang Yu didn't pause as he dashed forward with full intention of continuing his attack. Arriving in front of Dai Yun'er in a burst of speed, causing the dust to disperse instantly, Huang Yu slammed his foot towards her face.

”That's enough junior.”

Immediately, four men appeared around Huang Yu as they pointed their fingers towards his face. A earthshaking amount of spiritual energy was being released from those fingers as the seven spirit rings behind their back were made open for all to see.

Having his movements constrained, Huang Yu sneered. ”Hmmph, so once you take care of the young, the old ones come out. I guess it makes sense after all. This battle clearly felt like crushing dry weeds and smashing rotten wood!”

The four men felt some strangeness at Huang Yu's use of idioms. Nevertheless, anger still rose in their hearts as they heard this junior dare to insult their imperial princess right in front of them.

”Junior, this old man thinks you need to be taught a lesson to be respectful to your elders!” declared the man standing in front of Huang Yu with extreme prejudice. He ċȯċked his fist back as he swung towards Huang Yu.

Seeing this, a smile that was quickly hidden appeared on Huang Yu's face. He allowed the fist to hit him before he was sent flying hundreds of metres away.

As he flew, Huang Yu's expression turned calm as he sent a quick look to Romario and Xiao Chen who were being low-key.

The two of them nodded their heads seeing this as they swiftly disappeared.

”Huang Yu!!”

Many shouts came from the viewing area that the Shrek Academy group was in. The windows burst open as Wu Zhangkong, along with the rest of the students from Shrek Academy jumped to Huang Yu's aid.

As the smoke cleared, Huang Yu's body laid there. His ċhėst was slightly sunken in as he spat out blood.

At this, everyone turned their heads to look at Gu Yue. There was a look of cold fury on Gu Yue's face as she seemed about to burst at any time.

Noticing this, Xu Xiaoyan turned to Gu Yue as she placated her. ”Big Sis, please don't be rash right now! I know Huang Yu's in a pretty precarious position, but you really have to keep calm!”

”I am completely calm.” Gu Yue replied coldly.

Suddenly, Huang Yu's badly injured figure jumped up back to his feet. ”Fuck, you ȧssholes dare to hit your father like this!”

This sudden outburst stunned the people of Shrek who were ready for action, along with the rest of the arena.

Gu Yue's cold expression cracked briefly, but it remained unseen as Huang Yu drew all the attention at this moment.
