Douluo Dalu 2: The True God King-Chapter 276: [DD2]:
Chapter 276 - [DD2]: 276
"Senior? You're not just eating plain rice, you're drinking porridge. No wonder you're already so old, yet still so weak and frail."
Hai Bodong curled his lips and said.
"You!"
Du Busi was furious and snapped, "Stop trying to win with words! Who exactly are you?"
"Our Body Sect has never offended you!"
"Never offended?"
Hai Bodong chuckled, and suddenly, his aura exploded.
An indescribable, terrifying chill swept across the entire area as if an ice age had descended.
For hundreds of miles, the weather changed drastically.
The north wind howled, heavy snow fell, and the temperature across the land plummeted.
Inside Shrek City, many powerful figures looked at the drifting snowflakes in shock and silence.
One person alone had changed the weather, covering the entire city in wind and snow.
Such power left everyone speechless.
Outside the city, feeling the inescapable, terrifying cold, Du Busi's expression changed drastically.
"Ultimate Ice!"
"You... you..."
Du Busi was utterly stunned. What did he just witness?
He saw an Ultimate Martial Soul.
And it was the Ultimate Ice.
Du Busi was no fool. From this terrifying ability that could affect the weather for hundreds of miles, he had already realized something.
"Looks like you've recognized me. At least you're not completely brainless."
Hai Bodong said indifferently.
Du Busi's face grew solemn. "Our Body Sect and your Ice God Palace have always minded our own business. Why are you coming after us now?"
"Minding our own business?"
"That's not quite right."
"How come I remember your Body Sect looking down on my Ice God Palace?"
"You were so arrogant before, so conceited. Did you think my Ice God Palace no longer had the strength to wield a blade?"
Hai Bodong spoke coldly.
Du Busi shivered as he finally recalled his previous words at Shrek Academy.
His mouth twitched, and he said, "Then what do you want?"
"I'm telling you, we're not easy to bully either."
Now that he knew the identity of the person before him and could feel the terrifying pressure, akin to divine wrath, even the always arrogant and domineering Du Busi couldn't help but weaken his tone.
He was conceited, but he wasn't stupid.
He truly understood how terrifying the Ice God Palace was.
For thousands of years, the Body Sect had tried to regain its dignity, but every time, they were utterly crushed.
The people of Ice God Palace were all monsters—stronger than others of the same level.
And the man in front of him was undoubtedly an Ultimate Douluo.
A true, unharmed Ultimate Douluo—unlike Mu En, that half-dead old relic.
Du Busi was reckless, but he knew when to yield.
Besides, the Ice God Palace had suppressed the Body Sect for thousands of years. They could act arrogant towards others, but they truly didn't dare to act up in front of the Ice God Palace.
Hai Bodong scoffed. "What do I want?"
"You spoke when you shouldn't have, so you should be punished. Let me slap you twice, and we'll call it even."
"Impossible!"
Du Busi refused outright.
Being slapped in public? How was he supposed to maintain his reputation?
Did he not care about his dignity?
Du Busi said flatly, "I knew you wouldn't cooperate. Then I'll just have to do it myself."
As soon as he spoke, a monstrous aura erupted.
Countless snowflakes turned into razor-sharp blades, sweeping toward the Body Sect members.
"Careful!"
Du Busi shouted and quickly activated his soul power to defend himself, transforming into a small green giant.
Leading the charge, he attempted to go on the offensive, directly rushing toward the old man.
"Your courage is commendable, but you're overestimating yourself."
"Even Ultimate Douluos are nothing to me. What do you count as?"
Hai Bodong scoffed and swung his palm.
An invisible force struck.
The green giant Du Busi had transformed into was hit hard and sent flying.
Hai Bodong floated in the air, without even releasing his martial soul.
With each step he took, he swung another palm.
The twenty or so members of the Body Sect—among them, even Title Douluos and Super Douluos—could not resist in the slightest.
Every time his palm landed, someone was sent flying. There were no exceptions.
"Oh my god!"
On Shrek City's walls, Yan Shaozhe was dumbfounded.
Watching Hai Bodong slap people around like children—without even using his martial soul—completely shattered his worldview.
This level of power made his back drenched in sweat.
Whose subordinate was this? How could he be so terrifying?
"No wonder Teacher said that the Ice Emperor's strength is unmatched on the continent, even stronger than him."
"Seeing it today, it's truly frightening."
"Ice Emperor Haibodong... What a terrifying man."
Yan Shaozhe couldn't stop exclaiming and even felt a little schadenfreude.
Watching those Body Sect bastards get beaten up was incredibly satisfying!
Yan Shaozhe felt like he had just downed a cold soda on a hot summer day—refreshing!
"You're going too far!"
A dark green light surged from the sky as Du Busi roared in fury, entering a berserk state.
Du Busi was strong—far stronger than someone like Xuanzi of the same rank.
But Haibodong was even stronger.
Haibodong was so strong that even if three human Ultimate Douluos joined forces, they might not be able to defeat him.
His cultivation methods and battle techniques were entirely different from those of the Douluo Continent.
On this continent, the only one who could truly fight Haibodong at full power was Di Tian with his Dragon God Claw.
Without it, even Di Tian wouldn't be his match.
Ever since arriving in the Douluo Continent, Haibodong's strength had been continuously recovering.
Now, he was far stronger than he had been two years ago.
Facing Du Busi's charge, Haibodong formed hand seals. A dragon's roar echoed across the sky.
"Mystic Ice Dragon Soars!"
A massive, hundred-zhang-long ice dragon roared toward the heavens and then dove down.
The sheer energy released in that instant made the entire world tremble.
Du Busi's heart pounded as he used every ounce of his power.
But when the ice dragon descended, everything was obliterated.
Du Busi was forced out of his Martial Soul True Body form and crashed to the ground, coughing up blood.
One move!
Just one move—Mystic Ice Dragon Soars—had completely defeated Du Busi.
Du Busi never would have imagined that Haibodong would open with such a devastating attack.
"Don't play dead. I only used ten percent of my strength."
Haibodong's calm voice rang out as he suddenly appeared beside Du Busi.
Du Busi's eyes narrowed, his dark green pupils filled with deep dread.
"This is shameless! A dignified Ultimate Douluo bullying an old Level 98 man like me—disgraceful!"
Du Busi grumbled.
Haibodong's strength truly made him tremble in fear.
The power contained in that ice dragon could have destroyed him.
As Haibodong had said, he had indeed held back.
Du Busi could tell that Haibodong had no intention of killing him; otherwise, he would have fought to the death already.
Of course, even if he did risk everything, he might not pose the slightest threat to the man before him.
Haibodong was too strong—so strong that Du Busi felt he might have already surpassed the level of an Ultimate Douluo.
At the very least, compared to Mu En of Shrek Academy, who was also an Ultimate Douluo, Du Busi believed Mu En wouldn't even be able to put up a fight against Haibodong.
The Ice God Palace... It was truly damn powerful.
"Du Busi, stop your whining and come take your beating."
Haibodong spoke indifferently.

Du Busi's face darkened. Getting beaten up was one thing, but if he got slapped around in public, where would his dignity go?
"A man can be killed but not humiliated. Though I have lost, my spirit will never yield."
Du Busi stiffened his neck and declared.
Haibodong chuckled and said, "Oh? In that case, I'll just send you on your way."
As he spoke, Haibodong raised his hand again, as if preparing another Ice Dragon Soar attack.
Du Busi's eyelid twitched. Damn it, he was just bluffing, and this guy took it seriously?!
"Wait!"
Du Busi hurriedly said, "The usual rules—compensation. How about one ten-thousand-year-old spirit bone and five million gold coins?"
For thousands of years, the Body Sect had challenged the Ice God Palace numerous times.
And every time they got beaten up, they would offer compensation. That was the unspoken rule that had kept the peace between them.
This time, Du Busi wanted to do the same.
After all, as painful as it was to pay up, it was still better than getting publicly slapped.
He was the sect master of the Body Sect; he absolutely could not afford to lose face. Otherwise, the entire sect wouldn't be able to hold their heads up.
Haibodong frowned slightly and spread his spiritual power, sweeping across the entire Shrek City.
In a hotel, Su Yu, who was playing games with two women, suddenly paused and raised an eyebrow.
After thinking for a few seconds, his spiritual power also expanded, resonating with Haibodong's.
Outside the city, Du Busi watched Haibodong, seeing that he hadn't responded.
Just as he was about to say something, Haibodong finally reacted.
His eyes turned slightly, and he said, "Compensation is fine, but one soul bone isn't enough—I want two. Five million gold coins? Not enough—I want ten million."
"The spirit bones must be from top-tier soul beasts and at least thirty thousand years old. Otherwise, I won't accept them."
Du Busi: "??????"
"Why don't you just go rob someone?!"
Du Busi roared in anger.
"Are you stupid? Robbery wouldn't be this quick and easy."
Haibodong grinned.
"You bastard!"
Du Busi was fuming. This shameless old man was taking the chance to extort him!
Damn it!
"And what if I refuse?"
Du Busi said stubbornly.
"Then I'll have to send you on your way."
"Or strip you naked and parade you through the streets."
Haibodong said casually.
Du Busi's scalp tingled instantly.
"Can you at least act like a human being?"
Du Busi complained.
"Nope!"
"You—!"
Du Busi panted heavily, struggling to stand up.
He glared at Haibodong, then pulled out two soul bones and a gold card from his soul tool, throwing them over.
"Take it! You damn vultures, you're all money-hungry!"
Haibodong smiled as he caught the soul bones and the gold card, then countered, "What nonsense is that?"
"This is called spoils of war. Who told you to run your mouth without thinking?"
Du Busi was momentarily speechless, deeply regretting his words.
He really shouldn't have mouthed off.
One careless remark had not only gotten him injured but also cost him a fortune. What a disaster!
The more Du Busi thought about it, the angrier and more frustrated he became.
Suddenly, his eyes lit up as if he had thought of something.
Looking at Haibodong, he asked slyly, "So, is it true that your Ice God Palace has formed a strategic alliance with Shrek Academy?"
"How could that be? That's just some people using our name to intimidate others."
"As everyone knows, my Ice God Palace always keeps to itself."
Haibodong replied.
"So that means..."
"Damn! Those bastards from Shrek Academy are bold, using your name to throw their weight around?"
"Aren't they tarnishing your Ice God Palace's reputation?"
"Aren't you planning to punish them?"
"If I were you, I'd never tolerate this!"
If he had to suffer, then he wanted others to suffer too.
At this moment, Du Busi just wanted to see Shrek Academy drown in blood.
Haibodong glanced at Du Busi and scoffed, "Stop trying to stir things up. You think I don't know what you're up to?"
"But you're not entirely wrong—some people do need to be taught a lesson."
"Otherwise, soon any random cat or dog will dare to use my Ice God Palace's name for their gain."
...
"Not good!"
On the city walls, Yan Shaozhe, who overheard the conversation, felt a chill run down his spine, sensing great danger.
Without hesitation, he turned and ran.
This place was too dangerous to stay in!
But it was already too late. Haibodong had noticed him long ago.
Just as Yan Shaozhe flew a short distance, a figure suddenly appeared before him.
Yan Shaozhe stopped abruptly. When he saw who it was, his expression froze, and his body turned cold.
"High Priest, this is a misunderstanding! Just a misunderstanding!"
Yan Shaozhe said awkwardly.
Haibodong smiled coldly. "Then if I beat you up, it's also a misunderstanding, right?"
"High Priest, don't—ahhh!"
Before Yan Shaozhe could finish speaking, Haibodong had already thrown a punch, giving him a black eye.
Although Yan Shaozhe was a Super Douluo, in Haibodong's hands, he was no different from a toy.
Haibodong grabbed him and put on a spectacular public beating right at Shrek City's gates.
Outside the city, Du Busi laughed heartily at the sight, feeling utterly satisfied.
Indeed, when you're down on your luck, watching someone else suffer even more makes everything feel better.
Happiness, after all, is relative.
Haibodong made no effort to hide the beating. Naturally, Mu En in the Sea God Pavilion saw everything.
But Mu En simply lay in his reclining chair, quietly closing his eyes as if he knew nothing.
Half a quarter of an hour later, Haibodong finally finished.
Yan Shaozhe looked entirely different—his body bruised and aching, and his head swollen like a pig's.
Haibodong had even infused his attacks with Ultimate Ice, ensuring that the swelling wouldn't go down anytime soon.
"Get lost. I'll let you off this time since it's your first offense. But if you dare talk nonsense again, I'll skin you alive."
Haibodong said coldly.
Yan Shaozhe shivered, disappearing in an instant, running faster than a rabbit.
This brutal beating had left a deep psychological scar on him.
He could hardly show his face anymore.
Watching Yan Shaozhe flee, Du Busi laughed even harder.
"Serves you right, Shrek Academy!"
"And that Dragon God Douluo—what a coward! Bullying me but turning into a turtle in front of the Ice Emperor."
"That old bastard is nothing!"
Du Busi spat on the ground, looking utterly refined and cultured.
