Breaking The Fourth Walls (A Douluo Dalu Fanfic) - Chapter 41
Oscars Pov…
As i waited inside Flenders i discussed my plans with him concerning the progress of both companies. At first we argued that we could receive help from the city people or local restaurants and blacksmiths to help us establish our two companies. However, i was against it since i did not trust those people, however the blue lightning clan was one of the top three clans in the entire battle continent. Therefore i knew that if i were to receive any help from them it would be one of top quality and quantity if they wanted to preserve their image and reputation. The only problem was how to convince the clan leader Yu xiaogang, as i did not have any information or items to persuade him with.
I then looked over the window and wondered how to convince him since if Yu xiaogang was like how he was described in the novel or Manhwa he was someone who valued knowledge above anything else. I then looked towards Flender and asked, “Flender what do you know about Yu xiaogang.”, at first he was silent and then turned around and said, “He was my Friend.” I was surprised and quickly asked another question, “Then can you explain to me, what his personality is like.” Flender then looked at me with an expression which was full of pity and sadness and said, “He is kind and is never arrogant even though he stands at the peak of this world he always cares for his family and friends. However, that burden is a curse for him as well.”
I asked, “Why?”, but instead of Flender answering my question, Liu erlong who was behind me spoke instead saying, “It is because he was betrayed by his own, yet he still chose to forgive.” I could tell that their was pain within her voice, however Liu erlong kept going and said, “It is because his own wife was poisoned by one of the people he had trusted.” Liu erlong then sat next to Flender and explained to me the pain which Yu xiaogang experienced within his family. “Xiaogang was born into the lower branch of the Blue lightning dragon clan, as you do not know yet there are three branches within the clan. The first is the main branch, the second is the descendant branch, while the third branch is known as the lower branch.”
I carefully listened to what liu erlong was saying as this was new information for me as well. “However, when Yu xiaogang was born he was tested and was found to have been born with an innate full spirit power and contained a beast spirit that was extremely powerful, it was known as the Golden lightning Dragon spirit.” This was new info as well, since Yu xiaogang’s spirit was Luo San Pao, a variant spirit. Liu erlong continued and said, “He was considered the hope and pride of the lower branch clan, but a threat to the Descendant and Main branch clan. Once he began his cultivation he met challenges from different clans including his own family.” For the first time i felt anger towards the despicable actions of the Blue lightning dragon clan, but i continued to listen.
“However, Yu xiaogang was able to overcome these challenges and became even stronger than what he once was. Eventually he befriended a few members of the descendant branch and one from the Main branch.” I was surprised and asked Liu erlong, “Who was it from the Descendant branch and the Main branch that befriended him.” Liu erlong smiled and said, “My family, we were the ones who saw Yu xiaogang’s potential as well as his kind personality. Even though most of the descendant branch members insulted us for it, we helped Yu xiaogang in any way that we could. However…”
Liu erlong’s expression became cold and was full of anger, “The person who came from the Main branch was none other than Yu Long, the considered genius of the Main branch. At first all of us were suspicious of him, but slowly he gained our trust and we lowered our guards towards him. Then years later when Yu xiaogang had just reached the threshold of spirit emperor at the age of 20 which has never been done before, he met the love of his life, Bibi dong.” , “What!!!” I shouted, which surprised both Liu erlong and Flender, “Im sorry please continue.” I said while trying to hide my shock. Liu erlong looked at me suspiciously but continued anyways, “When they had met they became friends and got to know each other through time.”, “Yep, that was also the time that i met my darling.”
Flender said while hugging liu erlong from behind, however it was a short moment as Liu Erlong sent him flying the next second. “Anyways, the two got to know each other so well, that they promised to marry each other within two years time. Then throughout those years Yu xiaogang reached the peak of a spirit douluo at the age of 24. This was an accomplishment that had never been done in the history of the battle continent. Many rejoiced and were happy, but the enemies from the Main branch family were threatened by it and became even more aggressive and forced Yu Xiaogang to go through many challenges with Bibi dong. However, the one thing that was too far even for them, was poisoning Bibi dong with a soul devouring poison pill in hopes of stopping him from becoming a titled douluo.”
At that point i had clenched my hands as my anger had reached a new level, “This is too much.”, “I agree it is too much, but that was not the worst of it.” Liu erlong said while sighing just thinking about it. I then asked, “What happened.”, “Yu long the one which we had trusted in protecting Bibi dong poisoned her when all of us were caught off guard.” I knew that something like that would have happened, i knew that this must be painful explaining but Liu erlong kept going. “That was the last string for Yu xiaogang, he then went insane and attacked and killed almost every single member of the Main branch. That was until the elders forced him to back down, as they had one rank 94 titled Douluo elder, as well as the Patriarch who was a rank 96 titled douluo.”
I felt that this ordeal was almost the same as what my father and mother went through, i then remembered both my mother and father who i had not seen in so long. I missed them but at the moment listening to Liu erlong’s was more important, “Then what happened.”, “Luckily the two titled douluo’s of the seven glazed tile clan helped us at that moment in time.” I was once again shocked and asked, “Wait Chen xin and Gu rong helped you guys then.” Liu erlong was surprised and said, “That’s Right, at the time Yu xiaogang had been prepared and made an alliance with the seven glazed tile clan if they could help him become the next clan leader. They agreed under the conditions of being more than allies, but becoming partners.”
When Liu erlong was finished telling the story, her expression did not make any changes and i knew why. Yu xiaogang wife was poisoned but still alive until this day, but if i could cure her i might be able to gain his help. Only problem is that I don’t know the cure, “Do you know any cure to save Yu xiaogang.” I asked while looking at both Liu erlong and Flender, “We don’t know but all we know is that this poison needs to be purified, and it would require something with an unlimited amount spirit essence.”, Flender responded while standing next to liu erlong. I got up and then said, “Thank you both for telling me this.”, and left the room. As i made my way outside i asked Siri is she knew any cure for this, “Do you know any cure that could probably save Bibi dong.”
“Yes host, however you have no system points at the moment.” Siri replied while i stood in the yard, i then asked siri another question. “Siri then do you know any other method.”, she replied saying, “Yes host…” she then continued to explain and then i realized that the cure was so close all this time. I then ran around and found it, “Ma hongjun pack your bags we are going to the Blue lightning Tyrant dragon clan.”, “Wrah arr rou wralkifn arowd.” (What are you talking about), yes this was the cure that siri had given me.
