Douluo Dalu The Story Of Sheng Feilong - Chapter 189 Delusions About Strength

She Meixiao and Song Weihan waited for Yuanen Yehui to raise her head again, silently glancing at each other with small smiles. The atmosphere turned awkward after a few seconds and, thinking that She Meixiao and Song Weihan refused her request, Yuanen Yehui slowly raised her head, ready to leave the office silently.

Song Weihan was still smiling, though. Seeing Yuanen Yehui’s distraught expression, he couldn’t help but chuckle, surprising the latter. A moment later, Yuanen Yehui finally realized that both, Song Weihan and She Meixiao, didn’t look displeased, but were smiling happily.

“So, you finally decided to ask us for help.” Song Weihan commented nonchalantly. His tone and choice of words made Yuanen Yehui feel hopeful, despite being equally nervous. “Still, just asking for our help, saying you want to become stronger, doesn’t really help.”

Yuanen Yehui easily figured out that he wanted her to be more specific about what she meant by ‘becoming stronger’ and took a deep breath. “I wish to ask Seniors to please help me with increasing my cultivation.”

“Why your cultivation? You’re barely 17 years old; Among your generation, your cultivation already stands at the very top. In fact, inreasing your cultivation hastily would only result in your foundation becoming unstable.” Song Weihan said, still with the same nonchalant tone.

Yuanen Yehui hesitated for a while, not sure of how she could respond to that, which caused another awkward silence. A few more moments passed until Song Weihan broke the silence with a few, calm words. “Because Feilong and Jialong are already Soul Emperors?”

Another silence ensued, but Yuanen Yehui’s reaction to his words already gave Song Weihan all the answers he needed. He sighed lightly, then looked at Yuanen Yehui and started speaking. “Feilong and Jialong are different from you. First of all, the latter is still two years older than you. Once you reach his age, I have no doubts that you’ll already be stronger then he is now.”

Yuanen Yehui clenched her fists, listening to Song Weihan in silence. After stopping for a moment, Song Weihan glanced at She Meixiao, who continued to speak in a soft tone. “Do you know about Jialong’s past? Before you joined us on the Star Luo Continent, he was already with us, yet he never spoke of his past.”

Looking at She Meixiao with a uncertain expression, Yuanen Yehui still remained silent, waiting for the latter to continue. “He joined Daedalus about a month after he awakened his Spirit essence. Back then, a Titled Douluo with a Dragon type Spirit Essence taught him everything he now knows. And a few years ago, another Hyper Douluo even took him in as his personal disciple.”

Despite trying to hide it, She Meixiao’s voice sounded somewhat cold when she recalled Lao Zhuwong and Branchmaster Lu from the Star Luo Continent, still she continued speaking even after that. “He’s older than you, and had the support of Titled Douluo ranked experts from the beginning.”

At that point, Song Weihan chimed in again. “Feilong is in a similar position. He awakened with Innate Full Soul Power and when he came to the Spirit pagoda to buy a Spirit Soul, his Spirit power test got me interested. Seeing his Spirit Essence, Spirit Power and the fact that he was just a six years old boy, who could be molded into a great Soul Master according to my judgement, I took him in as my disciple.”

He leaned onto the table, his chin lazily resting on one hand. “He had my guidance from the get-go, even obtaining Spirit Souls that no one else could even think to get their hands on, Artificial Soul Bones specifically created for him and got taught my personal techniques. Moreover, there’s his special bloodline, which mutated his Spirit Eyes, as well as the late awakening of his second Spirit Essence, which is equally powerful.”

Song Weihan took a breath, then shrugged lightly. “Either way, what we want to say is, that aside from Feilong, you’re already the most talented Soul Master of Daedalus and stand at the top of the whole Douluo Continent. What you need to focus on is your fighting techniques, something that can only be honed by real combat.”

With a nod, She Meixiao agreed to Song Weihan’s opinion. “The Spirit Ascension Platform is already the most suitable place for you to train. Focus on strengthening your Spirit Souls and honing your techniques; Get used to working with Feilong and Jialong and don’t worry too much about anything else.”

Yuanen Yehui still didn’t seem completely convinced, but didn’t want to refute She Meixiao and Song Weihan after all they’ve said, thus only nodded her head. Song Weihan noticed her predicament and aptly added another thing. “If you truly feel that you need to become stronger right now, finish your Battle Armour.”

His words stumped Yuanen Yehui for a moment and caused her to think back to the time at Shrek Academy. “Senior Song… My Battle Armour comes from Shrek Academy. I don’t think there’s enough time to create a new one…”

“Who told you to create a new one? You should possess the full design for your Battle Armour, correct?” Song Weihan asked without any hesitation, to which Yuanen Yehui nodded once again. Then sighed and spoke in an annoyed voice. “Then just ask Feilong and Jialong; One’s a six ranked Mecha Maker while the other is a peak-fifth ranked Mecha Designer. Moreover, Daedalus has quite a few talented blacksmiths, two of which are Saint Craftsmen.”

Yuanen Yehui just stood inside the room, dumbfounded and not sure what to say to that, while she Meixiao chuckled lightly. “What he means is, you already have the best people to help you with this around you. If its about a suitable blacksmith, just tell me; I’ll introduce you to a few of Daedalus’ best.”

She Meixiao continued to chuckle, while Yuanen Yehui blushed lightly from embarrassment; She had been so fixated on the matter of her cultivation level that she forgot about the obvious. Although a Battle armour didn’t increase ones cultivation, it was the best way to increase ones fighting strength by leaps and bounds.

She quickly bowed to She Meixiao and Song Weihan excusing herself, eager to look for Sheng Feilong and Huang Jialong to ask them for help with her Battle Armour. She Meixiao and Song Weihan didn’t mind, the latter only sighing in annoyance after Yuanen Yehui left.

Taking a seat across from Song weihan, She Meixiao started chuckling once more. “You’re going to create a training plan for her, aren’t you?” Song Weihan only nodded his head in acknowledgement, causing She Meixiao to laugh lightly. “Well, she did ask us for help, after all…”

“I’ll be counting on your expertise when it comes to her Fallen Angel Spirit Essence.” Song Weihan said, still sounding as annoyed as before. She Meixiao nodded, though not forgetting to poke at his antics. “Why are so annoyed? If you don’t want to create a plan, you don’t have to; You’re not her Master.”

Song Weihan sighed once more, looking at She Meixiao after he leaned back into his chair. “I’m annoyed at how similar she is to Feilong. Both of them only ever ask for anything once they’re at their wits end, forgetting the most obvious options in the process. It’s infuriating to watch.”

She Meixiao laughed again, though the look in her eyes clearly agreed with Song Weihan. “Still, Feilong is still more of a handful…” A grunt was everything she got as an answer from Song Weihan.

————–

After leaving Song Weihan’s office, Yuanen Yehui went back to the living quarters of the Daedalus members, getting bot, Sheng Feilong and Huang Jialong, to come with her to the workshops. The two of them were a bit confused, but after listening to Yuanen Yehui’s earnest request for help with her Battle Armour, they both agreed immediately.

They talked about if for a short while before Yuanen Yehui took out the designs for her Battle Armour, instantly captivating Huang Jialong’s interest. He ignored Sheng Feilong and Yuanen Yehui, going through the designs at a fast pace, smiling gleefully the whole time.

He asked who created the design and Yuanen Yehui explained that it was created by Gu Yue from Shrek Academy, and planned to be made with the help of Tang Wulin and the others. Sheng Feilong knew about this plan as he was formerly a member of Tang Wulin’s Battle Armour making group as well, but didn’t expect Yuanen Yehui to join them as well.

“These designs are incredible. With the amount of details and the finesse of each component, it’s close to perfect when considering your Spirit Essences. It would take me weeks to come up with something similar.” Huang Jialong praised, still visibly awed by the design.

Sheng Feilong couldn’t help but agree and nodded his head slightly, getting Yuanen Yehui’s attention. “…Can you make it?” She asked in a meek voice, to which Sheng Feilong simply smiled in response. “It’s not that complicated. If you can get the right materials, I can assemble the whole armour in about two weeks time- No, make that three, since we need to go to the Spirit Ascension Platform, still.”
