Douluo Dalu: The Legend of Heavenly Ruler

Chapter 48 - Bodyguard And Teacher?



(An: it's a little bit late, but here is the second chapter)

--- Chapter 48 --- ​​

Yunlong sighed while staring at the fainted Yu Ning'er, and he can sense Qian Renxue's presence behind the door because clearly, she is spying on them.

"Big sister, you didn't even try to conceal your spirit energy," Yunlong commented, which makes Qian Renxue's mouth twitched in annoyance.

"Fine! Yunlong got another maid?!" Qian Renxue irritatingly said while slamming the door open and see an auburn-haired girl in Yunlong's embrace.

"Uh, yes..." Yunlong responded with a weak smile on his face.

"Don't tell me... Renxue, are you perhaps jealous?" Bibi Dong suddenly said while smiling at her daughter, who is stiffly turning her gaze away.

"N-No, of course not. I'm not jealous at all!" Qian Renxue sheepishly responded with a hint of blush on her face, making her mother and brother inwardly chuckling because she is just too easy to read.

"Ehem, so why did this lass want to become Yunlong's maid?" Qian Renxue coughed while shifting her gaze at Yu Ning'er, who is lying on Yunlong's hands.

"Ehh? You already heard it before when you're eavesdropping on us, right?" Yunlong stated with a speechless expression.

"Well, I'm j- just too focused when she said that she wants to become your loyal maid." Qian Renxue replied with a slight panicked yet calm expression.

"Simply put, she views Yunlong as her idol and wants to become strong..." Bibi Dong calmly commented while looking at Yu Ning'er.

"I see... Her idol is Yunlong, huh." Qian Renxue muttered while raising her gaze at Yunlong.

"Idol, eh?" She teased her younger brother while forming a smile on her face.

"What, I didn't do anything special to her, you know?" Yunlong stated while carrying Yu Ning'er away to the couch.

"Anything special? Then what are you doing right now?" Qian Renxue asked while pointing her finger at Yunlong, who lightly laid Yu Ning'er on the couch.

'Ah, I didn't realize." Yunlong thought while staring at Yu Ning'er.

He sighed while massaging his temple because having another maid is really a problem at the moment.

'Yunxi probably will stay with mother, so I pretty much will go on mission with Xiaoyu and Yu Ning'er.' Yunlong thought while pondering about something.

'I need to secure a few potential subordinates first.' He inwardly added while shifting his gaze at Bibi Dong.

"Hmm? Do you need something from your mother?" Bibi Dong smiled while giving him a gentle gaze.

"I can guess what you are thinking right now. You don't have to worried about carrying two maids with you because you have a hidden bodyguard." She stated, which makes both of her children confused.

"Who?" Yunlong and Qian Renxue said at the same time.

"The number two priest of the hidden palace, Golden Crocodile Douluo." Bibi Dong answered, which makes her children shocked and confused.

"Eh? That old man, Jin Eyu?!" Qian Renxue said in disbelief while remembering a certain bothersome old man with white hair and a beard.

(An: I don't know his name, and I can't find it in the fandom, so I just translate Golden Crocodile: Jin Eyu)

'Golden Crocodile Douluo, super douluo with spirit rank level 98.' Yunlong thought while pondering his hidden bodyguard's scarce information in his head, which is weird because her mother has a close relationship with Qian Daoliu.

'Why did she agree?' He is inwardly contemplating Bibi Dong's choices.

"Why did you agree? You still hate grandfather, right?" Qian Renxue straightly asked Bibi Dong, who is shaking her head.

"Yes, I still hate him. We argue for a bit and come to a conclusion, not only Crocodile Douluo will be Yunlong's hidden bodyguard, but he also becomes his teacher." Bibi Dong calmly replied while giving Yunlong a confident gaze.

"Yunlong's teacher. Grandfather intended to secure Yunlong's talent and nurture him for spirit hall good." Qian Renxue whispered while staring at Yunlong.

"Yunlong, you don't have to worry. If that old man dares to do something terrible to you, he will face something worse than death." Bibi Dong warmly smiled, which looks like a smile of a cold demon.

'I can't clearly remember about the golden crocodile douluo, but it's okay, I guess.' Yunlong thought before responding to his mother's words with a nod.

'I don't really have to change my plan, and maybe I could use the golden crocodile douluo to my advantage.' He inwardly added before letting out a slight sigh.

"Let's see just what kind of person he is," Yunlong said while shifting his gaze at the window, or precisely the blue skies.

--- In the hidden palace ---

Qian Daoliu is calmly staring at the middle-aged man in front of him. He had white hair and a white beard like him, but the middle-aged man, who he can say as a sworn brother, had a fierce and wild aura around his body, different from himself.

"Jin Eyu, it's been a long time since we meet with each other. How was it?" Qian Douliu asked while making a light smile on his face.

"It's still the same. I can't break through to level 99." Jin Eyu sighed while taking out a gourd filled with aromatic liquor made of a hundred medicinal herbs.

"If only an epiphany happens to me right now." He bitterly complained while drinking the aromatic liquor.

"Well, just be patient." Qian Daoliu responded while taking a special leather scroll from his spatial ring and handing it to Jin Eyu.

"As I thought, something must have happened when I went to seclusion, huh." Jin Eyu said while taking the leather scroll and reading it for a few moments.

After reading it for a few minutes, we can see Jin Eyu closing the scroll with a frown on his face.

"When he's only six years old, he already beat up a bunch of spirit master around level 14-17, and he didn't even use his martial soul. What a strange child..." Jin Eyu commented while shifting his gaze at the supreme pontiff palace.

"There should be more information about this child, right?" He asked Qian Daoliu, who is helplessly shaking his head.

"Unfortunately not. I can't get more information about Yunlong because Bibi Dong skillfully concealed it from the public." Qian Daoliu stated while remembering his conversation with Bibi Dong.

"I ask Renxue about Yunlong, but she gently refused to give me the information. Well, it's normal considering the level of relationship they have been through."

"Back to the topic, I want you to be his-." He said while staring at Jin Eyu, who already cut his words with his own word.

"His teacher, right. I can already guess it." Jin Eyu said while drinking his aromatic liquor again.

"Yes, I want you to be his teacher." Qian Dailuo confirmed with a slight smile on his face.

"But, you also have to become his bodyguard because Yunlong will go on a mission to the star luo empire." He added, which caught Jin Eyu off guard for a moment.

"Wait, what!? He's only eight, right?" Jin Eyu asked while staring at his old friend with a confused expression.

"Yes. Yunlong is only eight years old." Qian Dailuo nodded his head before releasing a sigh.

"I see... I only have to become a bodyguard and teach him, right?" Jin Eyu said while putting his aromatic liquor away.

"Hidden bodyguard, to be precise. But yeah, you only have to become a bodyguard and teach him. " Qian Daoliu responded.

"Sure, I kinda interested in this brat's talent and ability." Jin Eyu stated while letting out a smile on his face, "Let's see what kind of surprise he will show to me."
