**Chapter 147: Find the Wild Boy**
The Great Elder nodded solemnly, his expression grim.
"Master, we must act swiftly. Zhao Ling continues to trample on the dignity of our Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family. This situation cannot be allowed to persist.
It is crucial that we align ourselves with allies of significant power. Fortunately, Zhao Ling's ties to the Spirit Hall make this easier. The three upper sects have long-standing grudges against the Spirit Hall. I believe the Haotian Sect and the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect will firmly stand with us."
The Second Elder, after a moment of contemplation, nodded in agreement.
"Master, I concur. We need to act decisively and devise a plan immediately."
Although the Third Elder remained silent, the serious look in his eyes indicated his agreement.
The humiliation suffered by the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family was unbearable. How could they stand by while the clan leader's own son was reduced to a fool? How could they allow the family's honor to be dragged through the dirt without retaliation?
Their collective resolve was clear: if Zhao Ling remained on the Douluo Continent, the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family could not coexist with him. It was a fight to the death.
They understood, however, that Zhao Ling, a Titled Douluo, would not be easy to eliminate. They needed to bide their time, secure alliances, and strike with overwhelming force. The attack would have to be swift and decisive to ensure the complete destruction of their enemy.
Yu Yuanzhen's sharp gaze swept across the room, meeting the eyes of each elder before he spoke.
"Very well. I will personally visit the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect today and the Haotian Sect tomorrow. It is imperative that we solidify the bonds between the three sects and work together to eliminate Zhao Ling in the future."
He then turned to the three elders.
"You will accompany me to the Haotian Sect. Second Brother, you will stay behind to oversee the family. If anything happens, send word to me at the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect immediately."
With that, Yu Yuanzhen rose from his seat and strode out of the meeting hall. The three elders followed suit, their expressions grave.
Yu Luomian, however, was less than pleased.
'Why am I always the one left behind?' he thought bitterly. 'Couldn't the three elders stay to guard the house this time?'
Sighing in frustration, Yu Luomian watched as his elder brother and the three elders departed the mountain gate in a carriage bound for the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect. Only when the carriage disappeared from view did he turn away, resigned to his role.
As he approached the mountain gate, he was startled to see his son, Yu Xiaojiao, rushing toward him, his expression one of panic.
"Father, something bad has happened!" Yu Xiaojiao blurted. "I went to the Advanced Soul Master Academy to check on my younger sister as you instructed. Her teacher told me she hasn't been to the academy for a long time!"
"What?!" Yu Luomian's face darkened with anger. "She hasn't been attending the academy? Then where is she? That girl... always so troublesome! She told me she'd gone back to school to stay there. What is she up to?"
He recalled the note his daughter had left for him, stating her intention to return to the academy and live there for an extended period. Initially, he had dismissed it as a sign of her dissatisfaction with the lack of warmth at home. But now, her absence raised alarming questions.
Yu Luomian's mind raced, considering various possibilities, until one thought struck him like a bolt of lightning: 'Is she in love? Could his daughter be staying with her lover?'
The very idea made his blood boil. 'How could my precious daughter be taken away by some wild boy?'
"No, absolutely not!" he declared aloud. "I must bring her back immediately!"
Seething with anger, Yu Luomian turned to Yu Xiaojiao.
"Son, return to the academy and question anyone who was close to your sister. Find out if she's fallen for someone, and identify this wild boy for me. If I discover who he is, I'll beat him to death for daring to seduce my daughter!"
Yu Xiaojiao hesitated, a conflicted look on his face.
"Father, I've already asked around. Because of my temper, my younger sister doesn't have any close friends at the academy. Her classmates said she hasn't been to school in months. They have no idea where she is or who she's been with."
Yu Luomian's expression froze, his frustration mounting. His brows furrowed deeply as worry gnawed at him.
Sensing his father's distress, Yu Xiaojiao quickly tried to reassure him.
"Father, don't worry. I'm sure my sister just left home because she felt neglected. Once she reaches level 40 in her soul power, she'll have to return to the academy to graduate. That will be our chance to persuade her to come back. By then, she'll have calmed down."
But Yu Luomian remained unconvinced. One or two years might not seem like a long time, but it was more than enough for some wild boy to steal her heart—or worse, get her pregnant!
The thought was unbearable. Anger and helplessness warred within him, leaving him desperate for a release. Then an idea struck him.
Turning to Yu Xiaojiao, he ordered curtly, "Go outside and find a healing spirit master. Bring them to the family dungeon."
Yu Xiaojiao blinked in confusion.
"A healing soul master? For the dungeon?"
His thoughts turned to the only occupant of the dungeon—his cousin, Xiaogang.
Realization dawned on Yu Xiaojiao, and he couldn't help but shudder. 'Poor Cousin Xiaogang... it seems Father has decided to take out his frustration on him.'
