85: Dai Lin's plan

After Dai Yutian arrived at Dai Lin's mansion, he immediately vented his frustrations.

In just a moment, Dai Lin's mansion was almost completely trashed. Seeing Dai Lin's expression at this moment showed nothing.

But inwardly, he was frantically complaining, "You're here to tear down my house, aren't you? Not a word, just start demolishing."

So the two moved to another of Dai Lin's mansions. At this moment, Dai Yutian's anger was still hard to quell. Only after sitting down and smashing an expensive table did he start furiously accusing Dai Mubai.

"That kid Dai Mubai wants to overthrow everything! His old man, me, isn't dead yet! Not dead! He found a Level Ninety-Eight from outside and plans to ride on his father's head!"

Dai Lin's fingers unconsciously tapped the table, which also represented his strong inner unease. However, he still spoke up and offered a suggestion.

"Your Majesty, this child is temporarily unmanageable. Currently, it seems we can only..."

"What? There's no way? Then why did you call me here? I want that kid dead right now! I have plenty of sons! Just find another obedient one."

When Dai Yutian heard Dai Lin say there was no way to deal with Dai Mubai, his temper became uncontrollable again.

After all, since he ascended to the throne, the losses he had suffered over decades were not as much as he had suffered in these past few days.

Dai Lin was interrupted by Dai Yutian. At this moment, an unknown fire still ignited in his heart, whether it was directed at Dai Mubai or Dai Yutian.

However, Dai Lin still suppressed his anger and forced himself to speak again and explain to Dai Yutian.

"Your Majesty, we have no way now, but that doesn't mean we won't in the future. That Peak Douluo is indeed very troublesome, but that doesn't mean we have no way to deal with him, does it?"

Hearing Dai Lin say there was a way to deal with Bear Lord, Dai Yutian's eyes lit up. After all, the most frustration he had suffered was mainly from Bear Lord.

A person who just stares at you intently upon meeting, with undisguised threat in his eyes, and you are helplessly stifled by him – Dai Yutian hadn't felt this in a long time.

In Star Luo, even those stronger than him, he had the army and others' weaknesses. Even the Haotian Sect at its peak would give him some face.

Only Dai Long, who was not related by blood but was his direct grandfather, no matter what Dai Long did, Dai Yutian didn't have much temper towards him.

But facing Bear Lord, he had no way from beginning to end, and currently, Dai Yutian still couldn't do anything about him.

Hearing that Dai Lin had a solution, he was naturally overjoyed. And Dai Lin couldn't help but inwardly complain about Star Luo's system.

After all, if it weren't for this system, Dai Lin was confident he could easily inherit the throne with his strategies.

Dai Lin retracted his thoughts and directly and straightforwardly pointed out a clear path for Dai Yutian.

"Your Majesty can first investigate Bear Lord's origin. Although Your Majesty's investigation within Star Luo and Heaven Dou territories in the past few days yielded no results, some hidden Sects or families haven't been paid too much attention to, have they?"

Hearing this, Dai Yutian also stood up directly and couldn't help but murmur.

"That's right! Hidden Sects or families, I actually forgot about this! Good! Worthy of being my wise younger brother! I will immediately send people to investigate in this direction. By then, I want this so-called Bear Lord to obediently bow his head to me!"

After speaking, Dai Yutian left the place in a hurry, planning to have his department quickly investigate the matter thoroughly overnight.

And Dai Lin couldn't help but roll his eyes as he watched Dai Yutian's departing back.

Dai Lin picked up his wine glass at this moment and couldn't help but recall the reason why he could cultivate to this point.

Back then, according to Star Luo's rules, Dai Lin was very likely to have his soul power crippled. It was just that Dai Lin's innate soul power was weak, and he acted less frequently.

Coupled with the fact that he, Dai Lin, was skilled at flattery and acting humble, Dai Yutian saw that Dai Lin was so sensible and thus didn't cripple Dai Lin's soul power.

The key to keeping Dai Lin in the imperial city was that Dai Lin could grasp Dai Yutian's thoughts, and the strength Dai Lin revealed was always significantly lower than Dai's.

After getting along for a long time, Dai Lin deliberately exposed many so-called weaknesses to Dai Yutian. The reason why he, Dai Lin, didn't appear in the original work.

The reason was that Dai Lin had already crippled a certain part of himself in front of Dai Yutian, completely putting Dai Yutian's mind at ease.

Afterwards, even when Dai Lin broke through to Titled Douluo, it didn't trigger Dai Yutian's vigilance. This was because Dai Yutian thought he had a handle on Dai Lin and that he was a cripple, so he let him be.

But Dai Yutian had long kept a close watch, leaving a few children in some small kingdoms.

Only this way would Dai Lin have a chance to rebel in the future. But in the original work, before Dai Lin found an opportunity to act, Dai Mubai became a God.

Moreover, Dai Mubai and Dai Yutian's relationship in the later period wasn't too bad, which was why Dai Lin endured like that his whole life in the original work without finding an opportunity.

But the current situation was different. The relationship between Dai Mubai and Dai Yutian was like fire and water, also giving Dai Lin an opportunity to act.

Remembering his difficulties, Dai Lin swirled the wine in his glass and couldn't help but murmur with a cold laugh as he looked in the direction Dai Yutian had left.

"Just a self-righteous fool. Dai Long clearly values this child highly, coupled with the sudden appearance of that mysterious Peak Douluo behind him. Hurry up and make a fool of yourself! If you investigate anything, you'll probably be silenced. If you don't investigate anything, the current situation continuing to develop is also beneficial to me. This throne should be occupied by someone capable and strategic like me!"

After speaking, Dai Lin directly crushed the glass. The crimson wine slowly dripped down, and the resentment towards Dai Yutian in Dai Lin's eyes was also hard to conceal.

On the other side.

After celebrating with the Shrek people over this matter, Dai Mubai collapsed powerlessly onto the bed.

The battle with Karl was the most exhausting battle for Dai Mubai, not using the Gengjin Shattering Sky Blade.

And Gu Yuena appeared at the door, placed a spiritual herb on Dai Mubai's bedside table, and then left after giving some instructions.

At this moment, Dai Mubai held the spiritual herb that restored mental power, and his heart felt warm.

For Dai Mubai, the battle with Karl consumed the most mental power. After all, clashing in aura and maintaining his external image was indeed very tiring.

Gu Yuena's timely and thoughtful action like this made Dai Mubai's good impression of her slowly rise.

Although joining the Soul Beast faction was done partly under Gu Yuena's semi-coercion and his own desire to find answers.

But Gu Yuena always took meticulous care of him, which also made Dai Mubai change his initial view of Gu Yuena.

To be honest, Gu Yuena, as part of the Dragon God, bore a lot. Her brother, the Golden Dragon King, was sealed.

So everything regarding the future of the Soul Beasts needed to be her responsibility.

Furthermore, Gu Yuena was a woman who was both timely and thoughtful, yet also sufficiently independent, although all of this was under the circumstance of Gu Yuena misunderstanding him.

Gu Yuena saw Dai Mubai take the spiritual herb from the shadows before she felt relieved and walked back.

For her, in this short period of about a year, Dai Mubai was both a teacher and a friend.

Whenever she encountered something she couldn't solve, Dai Mubai always had his own opinions. When he couldn't solve it, he would also generously admit it and then persuade her from another perspective.

This year, for Gu Yuena, was truly living her own life, because no matter what she encountered, she was no longer facing it alone.

Moreover, the Shrek people gave her a feeling of youthful vitality. Regarding this feeling, Gu Yuena felt very comfortable inwardly.

Thus, in her interactions with the Shrek people, she also slowly accepted Dai Mubai as a person and the people around him.

Gu Yuena didn't know when she started actively caring about things other than cultivation and the Soul Beast race for Dai Mubai, but she didn't reject these emotions.

Although Dai Mubai still had some reservations about Gu Yuena at this time, he also learned to look at problems from Gu Yuena's perspective.

The hearts of the two slowly developed some different feelings without realizing it, although neither of them had discovered this yet.

Half a month later, Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing arrived at the palace gate, and Dai Long had already been waiting for a long time.

He looked at the two with a few hints of a benevolent smile, and then personally brewed a cup of tea for them.

After a long time, the tea cooled, and Dai Long still didn't speak.

Just as Dai Mubai was about to speak, he was suppressed by a look from Dai Long.

After all, regarding entering the ancestral land, he, Dai Mubai, was not the real protagonist.

And Dai Mubai also understood Dai Long's intention. He simply drank his tea, no longer having any intention of speaking.

Seeing this, Zhu Zhuqing also instantly understood. It was just that before, no matter what she did.

Dai Mubai would always prepare things for her first, or speak first. Currently, Dai Mubai had already explained the matter regarding the God's inheritance to her before.

Zhu Zhuqing also finally realized that this was her own test and she had to take the initiative. So she looked directly at Dai Long and softly asked about the details.

"Mad Beast Mianxia, may I ask what I should do after entering the ancestral land?"
