Doupo: Rebirth of Gu He, Starting with a Strategy to Win Over Yun Yun

Chapter 104 One Man Battles the Sound Waves of the Gold-Eating Rat, Feng Qing’er is Shocked[Would the host like to bind Feng Qing’er?]

”Bind her.”

Gu He didn’t really care.

On a bluestone in the distance, Feng Qing’er’s graceful figure moved as she leaped down.

Her expression was cold; her words just now had sounded very much like a challenge.

She didn’t look like someone who had any favorable feelings toward her opponent.

Gu He also saw her expression,

As for... the fact that Feng Qing’er didn’t like him and her affection level wouldn’t go up?

He wasn’t afraid.

Don’t you know that a persistent man can wear down any woman? Gu He had plenty of patience.

[Ding! Congratulations to the host for a successful binding!]

[Target: Feng Qing’er]

[Beauty Grade: Top-tier]

[Target’s Affection for host: 10%]

”Oh?” Gu He sighed inwardly.

Feng Qing’er’s affection for him actually wasn’t zero or negative?

Forget it, it didn’t matter; a woman’s mind is the hardest thing to guess.

As for whether binding her early would grant an extra reward... the System’s rewards were cumulative, stacking from the initial point to the present.

Once he increased Feng Qing’er’s affection next time, the rewards would be given to him along with the initial 10%.

...

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Gu He led Yun Yun and the other two forward, speaking to the frowning Jin Shi,

”Gu He.” This was his name.

Jin Shi narrowed his eyes. ”You are that Gu He who is famous throughout the Northern Region?”

”I wouldn’t dare claim such fame.”

Jin Shi glanced at the people following behind him. It was one thing to have a Dou King, but there was even a Great Dou Master!

Were they challenging the trial personally established by the Gold-Devouring Rat Clan??

This was ’not daring’?

This was being as bold as a rock!

Then, Gu He’s resonant voice rang out, just as firm as old man Jin Shi had expected,

”The four of us will challenge it together!”

Jin Shi’s gaze sharpened, a flash of ruthlessness passing through his eyes.

”The power of the Sonic Array increases with the number of people. Are you really sure you want to bring... three whole people?” he reminded him.

Immediately after, Jin Shi’s sharp gaze swept over Xiao Yi Xian and Qing Lin, his eyes revealing a deep suspicion of their strength.

Qing Lin’s face suddenly flushed red.

She was the youngest and hadn’t experienced many storms; Jin Shi’s questioning words made her feel indignant.

But... she was indeed too weak.

In this world where Dou Qi is respected, being weak never meant you were in the right.

The scenes of several experts failing the trial earlier flickered in Qing Lin’s mind like the temptation of a fallen angel.

Qing Lin believed that Sister Xiao Yi Xian would definitely succeed, but as for her...

Qing Lin gripped Gu He’s wrist tightly and whispered hesitantly,

”Sir, please take the sisters up. I will only hold you back.”

”I don’t want to be a burden. Qing Lin is already very satisfied to have made it this far...!”

Others did not have her luck to follow behind an expert like Gu He and witness the mystery and magnificence of the Tianmu Mountain Range.

”Silly girl, you can do it.” Gu He took her small, fair hand and gave it a reassuring squeeze.

”Use all your Dou Qi to block your ears, understood?”

”Trust me, okay?”

Gu He’s gentle and soft coaxing made Qing Lin harshly scold herself.

Qing Lin! How can you be so insecure again!

Even if you are a novice, you should at least trust your master, right?

Qing Lin nodded heavily, her green eyes full of trust. In the next instant, she used her Dou Qi to block her ears.

Seeing that Qing Lin was ready, Gu He looked up at Jin Shi.

”Begin.”

Gu He let go of Qing Lin’s hand, and just as she felt a sense of emptiness in her heart, a warm, large hand covered her ears.

It was her master.

A sweet, reassured smile appeared at the corners of Qing Lin’s mouth, as if she had eaten nectar.

It was so good to have Master Gu He around.

...

Gu He’s golden Dou Qi lifted everyone up, and they landed on the Stone Stairs.

Gu He maintained the motion of covering Qing Lin’s ears and did not move.

And with their arrival,

The Golden Devouring Rats surrounding the Stone Stairs, as numerous as a sea of eyes, instantly opened their pupils, their fur standing straight up.

A powerful sonic wave quietly emerged, causing the surrounding energy to fluctuate rapidly.

”Squeak squeak squeak!”

Piercing sonic waves quickly condensed around them, descending from the sky like a violent storm, attempting to penetrate the bodies of Gu He and the others through every possible opening.

If hit by these sonic waves, their Souls would surely feel a sharp, intense pain, and the Dou Qi in their bodies would become a chaotic mess!

Without hesitation, before the sonic waves arrived, Gu He looked forward with his black eyes, the dense swarm of Golden Devouring Rats appearing as insignificant as ordinary grass and trees.

One strike, Azure Dragons Roar!

Azure Dragons Roar varies with the strength of the user’s Soul Power. After Gu He ascended to a Seventh-Rank Alchemist, his Soul Realm improved significantly, and this Earth Rank Advanced Dou Technique showed signs of reaching the Heaven Rank Elementary level.

This was a rare sonic Dou Technique, and it was nearly Heaven-Grade!

”Roar—!”

Gu He’s figure didn’t move, but an azure dragon resembling a fierce giant beast faintly circled the sky, its head being the most prominent feature.

The Four Divine Beasts of the Heavens can be hidden or visible, minute or gigantic.

A massive dragon’s roar suddenly manifested from the sky, its powerful sonic wave almost completely enveloping the entire Tianmu Mountain, causing even the forest covered in thick white mist to tremble.

Under numerous horrified gazes, the Azure Dragons Roar collided violently with the sonic waves of the Rat Swarm.

Shockingly, that sonic wave completely annihilated the Rat Swarm’s sonic waves like a hot knife through butter!!

With just one move from one man, the dragon preceding his movement, Gu He frontally defeated the combined sonic waves emitted by countless Golden Devouring Rats!

The intense scene suddenly went silent, like an old man drawing his final breath.

Gu He calmly withdrew his gaze and lowered his hands from Qing Lin’s ears.

Meanwhile, that old fellow Jin Shi’s legs were already shaking.

”A Dragon’s Roar sonic wave?”

”Even mutated beasts with a Dragon Bloodline couldn’t produce such an attack!”

”Just who is he?!”

Jin Shi, an old man who always maintained his composure, now had a drastically changed expression and couldn’t help but cry out in shock.

At this moment, both the platform and the mountain peak fell into a dead silence. No one had expected Gu He to choose such a way to pass the trial.

This was equivalent to others risking their lives to climb a coconut tree to pick coconuts, while Gu He simply chopped the tree down with one blow.

Easily solved, and the coconuts were in hand.

And among the twenty or so people there, young and old, he was the only one with such strength!

For a moment, there were many exclamations of awe and fear: ”Monster, he’s a monster...”

Near the Stone Stairs, Jin Shi finally came to his senses after a moment of daze. He looked at the dispirited Golden Devouring Rats and shook his head with a bitter smile.

He never expected to suffer a setback at the hands of someone who had only recently become famous!

”Congratulations, you have successfully passed the trial...!”

Jin Shi sighed helplessly and waved his hand, his heart filled with complex emotions.

...

As Gu He brought the three of them to the mountain peak, the scenery of the summit leaped into view.

The summit of Tianmu Mountain was quite broad, but it was covered with small pits and scattered rocks.

The group was currently standing on a flat stone platform carved from a massive rock.

Feng Qing’er, who had arrived first, was clearly stunned when she saw them, her colorful dress fluttering in the wind like a beautiful rainbow atop the mountain.

”You... you all came up together??”

...
