Douluo Dalu - The Story of Sheng Feilong Chapter 236: A Lifesaving Favour

A gut wrenching sizzling sounded out from Zhen Hua's shoulder while Sheng Feilong's pushed his claw deeper into it. In addition to the Netherworld Putrefaction Demon's usual greyish-green gas, the green aura created by the Evil Spirit was rising up into the air as well.

She Meixiao and the others continued to look on with tense expressions as Zhen Hua's body began shaking, though the expressions of Sheng Feilong and Song Weihan, who could clearly tell what was happening thanks to their Spirit Power, eased up.

Still, Sheng Feilong didn't dare to lose his concentration and continued to keep close watch over whatever the Evil Spirit was doing. Currently, it was unable to escape Sheng Feilong's grasp; It was driven into a corner and was constantly being corroded by the Netherworld Putrefaction Demon's powers, completely locked down by Sheng Feilong.

Even though it was caught like that, the Evil Spirit was extremely powerful; The speed at which it was being eradicated was really slow, while the fact that it could bring Zhen Hua, a Hyper Douluo, to the verge of death spoke volumes of its strength.

After a while, Song Weihan started helping Sheng Feilong out with his own Soul Power, fuelling it into Sheng Feilong's body so his reserves wouldn't run dry. With the help of Song Weihan, Sheng Feilong wouldn't have any problems for a long while and She Meixiao also eased up after seeing that his technique was effective.

Mu Ye didn't avert his eyes from Sheng Feilong and Zhen Hua for a single moment, though he had also calmed down considerably and was now trying to understand how Sheng Feilong was able to help Zhen Hua. 'His Spirit Essence is ridiculously strong, but how can he pinpoint that Evil Spirit every time?'

He stared at Sheng Feilong, his gaze focusing some more. '… Is it because of his bloodline? His bloodline power has been surging this whole time, but I can't say what its doing, much less what bloodline it is. Still, it's also incredibly powerful... His might even be superior to Ruheng's... Maybe even superior to... Tang Wulin...'

Thinking about Tang Wulin and what happened to Shrek Academy, Mu Ye couldn't help but sigh. While the Body Sect and Shrek Academy were rivals, it didn't sit well with him to see them annihilated. Especially since he himself invested quite a bit into Tang Wulin due to the latter's unusual bloodline.

The treatment Sheng Feilong administered for Zhen Hua continued to go on for another hour before he breathed out a long sigh. He carefully retracted his his claw and cancelled the Netherworld Putrefaction Demon transformation. Mu Ye stepped forward, looking at Zhen Hua with a concerned expression. "Did you manage to help him?"

Zhen Hua's body was more mutilated than before, but with the resources of the Body Sect and the Blacksmith Association, a few superficial flesh wounds weren't an issue; As long as the Evil Spirit was gone, Mu Ye was confident in healing Zhen Hua within a weeks time.

Sheng Feilong nodded his head, thoguh still with a serious expression. "I've eradicated the Evil Spirit fully; There's not a trace of it left. But Senior Zhen is still greatly weakened. The damage done by the Evil Spirit as well as the fight and the wounds I've giving him, he'll need medicinal treatment immediately."

Mu Ye scooped Zhen Hua up and left through a door at the side with him. He had already prepared a lot of resources for Zhen Hua including a medicinal bath in the next room. Sheng Feilong and the others left him to his own devices, waiting for him to return after a few minutes. Mu Ye returned to them with an expression that showed that he was at ease now. "I truly don't know how to thank you, boy... With the Evil Spirit gone, he'll be back in top shape in less than a week; The rest of the wounds can easily be healed."

Sheng Feilong was taken aback, but still acknowledged Mu Ye's words; He thought the wounds on Zhen Hua's body to be quite a problem, especially with all the clumps of black lines he was able to see with his third eye's abilities, yet it seemed he had underestimated the Body Sect and Mu Ye.

Before he could think of anything else to say, She Meixiao stepped up next to him, smiling at Mu Ye. "I'm glad Sir Zhen Hua will be alright, Sir Mu." She glanced at Sheng Feilong and the Soul Douluo she brought with them before her expression turned somewhat embarrassed. "Originally, I brought Feilong and Yuanen here to profit from Daedalus helping you, but I didn't expect that he would be that help."

The Soul Douluo laughed awkwardly, not daring to meet her gaze, while She Meixiao continued to speak. "I'll be frank with you, Sir Mu; As repayment for Daedalus helping you in this matter, I wish to ask for two things: First, I would like for you to allow for Feilong to learn your Body Sect's techniques to strengthen his bloodline and for Yehui to be allowed to learn your body forging and fighting techniques."

Mu Ye's eyes narrowed at her words, while Sheng Feilong and Yuanen Yehui were surprised. The Body Sect's bloodline techniques and body forging methods were some of their core secrets, some of which were the reason they could even compete with other powerful organisations on the continent.

She Meixiao naturally understood that point just as well and continued to explain herself. "I'm sure you've already noticed Feilong's powerful bloodline all those years ago when we travelled to the Star Luo Continent together; You've seen how powerful it truly is today and how peculiar its abilities are. I want for him to push that bloodline to the peak."

"Yuanen Yehui is in a different situation; She doesn't have any special bloodline, yet her Spirit Essence, or Essences to be precise, are just as extravagant. The reason I want you to allow her to learn the Body Sect's techniques is her first Spirit Essence, the Titan Giant Ape." She spoke openly, causing Mu Ye to fall into silence.

He looked back and forth between Sheng Feilong and Yuanen Yehui with a complicated expression. It took him roughly a minute to finally make a decision and open his mouth again. "I can teach both of them a few body forging and fighting techniques. As for the bloodline strengthening techniques..." He looked at She Meixiao with a complicated expression before continuing. "All of them are considered core secrets of our Body Sect. As long as he isn't a member, I can't teach them to him..."

She Meixiao continued to smile, as if she had expected that response, though still pushed the matter. "I understand your difficulties, but can't you turn a blind eye to the rules just this once? Feilong's bloodline is truly special and not pushing it to its peak would be a huge loss." Her voice became somewhat lower, and she directed at only at Mu Ye. "I remember there being an exception not too long ago... Will it truly be impossible for Feilong to get the same treatment?"

Mu Ye's pupils constricted once again and his frown deepened; He knew exactly what She Meixiao was talking about, but didn't expect her to know about it, much less bring it up now. "...I've underestimated Daedalus a bit, it seems... I didn't expect you to know of me training Tang Wulin..."

"Tang Wulin?" Sheng Feilong and Yuanen Yehui were taken aback, while She Meixiao only continued to smile. Mu Ye nodded, his arms crossed in fornt of his chest. "During the journey to the Star Luo Continent; You remember him being so tired every morning? He was training with me; That's how he managed to go through his Second Awakening."

He sighed, then stared at Sheng Feilong. "Fine, I'll teach that boy for a while and help him push his bloodline further. But before that, I need to know what bloodline it is." Sheng Feilong hesitated, glancing at She Meixiao for advice. The latter nodded, signalling him that it was alright to tell Mu Ye. "My bloodline is that of a 100.000-years-old Three-Eyed Golden Lion, who took human form and created my Sheng Clan. I've already awakened it and even opened the legendary third eye."

Mu Ye's annoyed expression froze instantly. His eyes widened slightly and his head shot around, looking at She Meixiao, who simply nodded with a smile. His expression turned somewhat sluggish and he was unable to reply for a long time, only capable of staring at Sheng Feilong.
