Douluo Dalu: The Legend of Heavenly Ruler

Chapter 19 - Go To Star Dou Forest



--- Chapter 19 ---

Yunlong is leisurely walking to the backyard while Chu Xiaoyu quietly followed him. ​​

As they arrived at the backyard, Yunlong turning back as Dawn Breaker appeared in his right hand.

Chu Xiaoyu also makes her martial soul appear on her hand, an icy blue long sword.

"By the way, what is the name of your martial soul?" Yunlong curiously asked while stared at the sword in Xiaoyu's hand.

"Icy Haze Sword." Chu Xiaoyu replied as the sword in her hand released an intense chill.

'It's perhaps similar to Skyfrost sword's martial soul from soul land 3.' Yunlong thought as he saw a yellow spirit ring rising from Chu Xiaoyu's feet.

"Are you ready?" Yunlong asked while staring at his little maid.

"Mm, I'm ready." Chu Xiaoyu nodded as she raised her sword to him.

"Well, let's start..." Yunlong said as he controlled his breathing and appeared in front of Chu Xiaoyu.

Yunlong used his serene sword art's first move and thrust his katana toward Chu Xiaoyu's throat.

"Divine Slash..." Chu Xiaoyu launched a powerful stroke, which parried Yunlong's attack, but her move did not end there.

*Clank!*

Chu Xiaoyu rapidly slashed her sword into the air as the cold wind sweeping around from her slashes.

"I see... your sword attack is focused on speed, huh," Yunlong commented with a smile on his face as he defended every sword slash from her.

"It's good." He added while abruptly slashing his katana downward and destroy Chu Xiaoyu's momentum.

*Clank!* *Bam!*

Chu Xiaoyu dazed for a split second because her momentum is destroyed, but Yunlong's voice is waking her up.

"Don't daze in the middle of the fight," Yunlong said as he kicked her on her stomach and launched her two meters away from him.

*Bam!*

Chu Xiaoyu feels intense pain in her abdomen before got launched away by Yunlong's kick.

'My stomach is hurt...' Chu Xiaoyu thought while clutching her stomach.

'He's holding back his strength, but just how powerful he is?!' She added in her heart while stabbing her sword to the ground to support herself.

Meanwhile, on the side, we could see Chu Yunxi and Bibi Dongxue observed the fight.

"Young master is..." Chu Yunxi said while staring at her daughter, who is clutching her stomach.

"Well, I did teach Yunlong not to holding back and be biased even if his enemy is a woman or man." Bibi Dongxue said while giving her son a nod.

'Power is the only thing matter on the battlefield, after all.' Bibi Dongxue thought because gender doesn't matter as long you have power and be a winner in the battle.

Back to the spar, Chu Xiaoyu raised her sword once again as she dashed forward Yunlong.

Chu Xiaoyu slashed her sword at Yunlong, leaving a white mist in the air, but Yunlong already saw through this as he placed his katana behind his back.

"Let's see..." Yunlong muttered as his eyes turned into Sharingan.

"Left." He added in his heart while slashing his katana to the left.

*Clank!*

"Frozen Edge..." Chu Xiaoyu's voice echoed in the mist as Yunlong feels something a sharp chill is about to touch his neck.

Yunlong dodged the incoming attack using his shadow flash step, but he could saw his afterimage's neck slashed by a sword edge.

'Did I underestimate her ability...' Yunlong commented while his eyes are scanning through the mist.

'Shadow Veil.' He activates his new ability, which erased his presence from the white mist.

"He's gone..." Chu Xiaoyu muttered as she can sense Yunlong's presence inside her white mist.

"Behind You." Yunlong's voice entered her ears, making the girl panic.

Chu Xiaoyu hurriedly makes a sheath from ice in her other hand and placed it on her back.

*Bam!*

"Hmm? Your sword had a sheath?" Yunlong said while looking at the sword sheath on Chu Xiaoyu's hand, which looks like crystal ice.

Chu Xiaoyu released a heavy breath as she sheathed her sword and entered the Iai stance.

She's calmly closed her eyes before opened them again, showing Yunlong a brilliant pair of yellow eyes.

Two of them are staring at each other for a few seconds before Yunlong dashed forward and horizontally slashed his katana.

'Second Sword: Modified, Falling Thunder Chop.' Yunlong thought as a sound of thunderclap appeared from his sword slash.

"Divine... Slash." Chu Xiaoyu instantly launched her high-speed Iai stroke.

Two slashes are about to meet with each other as Yunlong suddenly twisted his arm.

'He changes the direction of his slash!' Chu Xiaoyu thought as katana stopped beside her neck.

"I won," Yunlong stated before pulled his katana back into its sheath.

"That was a good fight." He added with a smile on his face.

*Clap!* *Clap!*

"Good job, you two." Bibi Dongxue said as he walked toward them while Chu Yunxi followed her.

She's giving her son a nod before shifting her gaze to her new disciple and said, "I already see your fighting prowess, Xiaoyu. You have a good foundation and mastery over a sword."

"After we arrive at my place, I will train you." She added while giving her a smile, which makes Chu Xiaoyu excited in her heart.

'Mother and I need to become strong.' Chu Xiaoyu thought in her heart while staring at her mother.

'Training... Maybe after that, I could surpass that guy's strength and kill those scums.' She added in her heart while remembering a silhouette of a man.

"I understand, teacher." Chu Xiaoyu said while nodded at Bibi Dongxue.

'What she mentioned as "My place." should be spirit hall.' Yunlong guessed while shaking his head as its too apparent for him.

'Now that I am thinking about it, she did teach me about the spirit hall, but she never specifies about it.' He added in his heart while shifting his gaze at his mother.

"Well, let's prepare ourselves before we go to the star dou forest." Bibi Dongxue said as they start preparing a few things.

After that, we could see a group of four walked toward the star dou forest.

'I hope the original doesn't have any problem in the spirit hall.' Bibi Dongxue thought while staring at the skies.

'Six years, huh... I can imagine just how lonely she is without Yunlong on her side.' She added in her heart as she shifted her gaze to Yunlong.

'Bibi Dong.' Yunlong thought while remembering the woman who gave birth to him.

He still remembers six years ago when Bibi Dong handed him to her clone, Bibi Dongxue.

'I really miss her for some reason.' He added in his heart as he closed his eyes.

Don't get him wrong; Yunlong still loves Bibi Dongxue because she is the one who raised him, but there is a longing feeling in his heart every time he remembered Bibi Dong.

"Six years... Mother, we finally able to meet again," Yunlong muttered with a smile on his face.
