Chapter 132 Su Yun: "Zhu Qing, stay away from Sister Nana from now on…"
"I certainly know Xiao Xue is my daughter!"
Bibi Dong's cold voice suddenly became much louder, her eyes revealing a sinister intent: "But this is my possession. If my daughter needs it, I will naturally give it to her. There's no need for you to reach out on her behalf to ask me for it."
"Moreover, if she wants the position of Pope, she can naturally challenge me for it. I'll be waiting," Bibi Dong said, looking down from her high position, overlooking Qian Daoliu.
However, Qian Daoliu just quietly looked at the Pope, whose tone had suddenly turned unfriendly. After the light in his calm eyes flickered faintly, he ultimately did not speak again and turned to leave the Pope's palace, leaving only Bibi Dong alone, sitting on her throne in solitude.
"Grand Worship, that woman is unwilling to hand over the item?" Right after Qian Daoliu left the Pope's palace, a middle-aged man clad in golden armour, with black hair and strange patterns on his cheeks, giving off a fierce and intimidating aura, appeared beside him.
Qian Daoliu shook his head slightly.
Seeing this, the middle-aged man snorted coldly and rebuked: "Grand Enforcer, I've said before that woman is not fit to be the Pope. She only has her position today because she is Xiao Xue's mother. Otherwise, how could we rest assured and stay with you in the Enforcer Hall!"
"Golden Crocodile Douluo! You misspoke!" Qian Daoliu suddenly rebuked, making the Golden Crocodile Douluo wisely shut his mouth, "The affair back then was indeed our Qian family's fault... Moreover, it must be said, she indeed is a good material for the Pope."
"Over the years, our Spirit Hall has been able to recruit so many soul masters across the continent, and that woman can be said to have contributed significantly."
Although Golden Crocodile Douluo is Qian Daoliu's senior, he doesn't usually put on airs. In his heart, strength is the most respected, so within the entire Spirit Hall, he only follows Qian Daoliu, who is stronger than him.
"Even so, the Spirit Hall must return to Xiao Xue's hands. That girl has been away from the Spirit Hall since she was young, suffered so much in the Star Luo Empire, and should come back to enjoy some peace," Golden Crocodile Douluo, as an elder, naturally has a deep affection for Qian Ren Xue.
Therefore, he is extremely displeased with Bibi Dong's followers, including another disciple, Su Yun.
"This is the girl's own choice. She has her thoughts, let her do it," Qian Daoliu walked along the road, then suddenly changed the subject, "As for our Pope's new disciple, we should pay some attention."
"At the age of ten and a half, his soul power has already reached level 42. That woman has a good eye for having accepted such a promising youngster."
Although Golden Crocodile Douluo was displeased with Su Yun, he nodded from the bottom of his heart: "I've observed the boy. His soul is of high quality, and his talent is also high. What's surprising is that he is not the son of Tang Hao and that soul beast, yet he can awaken the Blue Silver Emperor."
"Heh," Qian Daoliu chuckled, "Aren't you also not a descendant of the Golden Crocodile King?"
"The awakening of a soul is indeed fate. Who can guarantee with absolute certainty that they can awaken the soul they want?"
Golden Crocodile Douluo smiled: "Don't make fun of me. Seriously, if cultivated properly, that boy named Su Yun, his cultivation talent could continue, and he might achieve the title of Soul Saint before the age of twenty, become famous across the continent, and even have the chance to touch the threshold of a Titled Douluo before thirty."
Thinking carefully, Golden Crocodile Douluo suddenly felt that this boy named Su Yun seemed to have higher cultivation talent than Xiao Xue, who had innate level 20 soul power!
Golden Crocodile Douluo's eyelids twitched, suddenly saying: "I remember last time Snake Spear and Porcupine sent a letter saying Xiao Xue wanted to win over this boy but was teased by him instead. Gutsy."
"Is this boy planning to play the 'older women and gold bricks' game?" Thinking of Su Yun daring to tease his most beloved Xiao Xue, Golden Crocodile Douluo wished he could grind Su Yun into the ground.
Hearing this, Qian Daoliu did not show any aversion to Su Yun, but indifferently said: "If it wasn't for my intention to let Xiao Xue step into that realm, perhaps this boy named Su Yun could really become a good match for her."
Golden Crocodile Douluo's eyes widened, he really didn't expect Qian Daoliu to say such a thing, "Grand Enforcer, haven't you seen how many women that boy has attracted?"
"I dare say, as he grows older, the women around him could probably start a Soul Hall branch."
Golden Crocodile Douluo firmly supports Xiao Xue.
Pah!
That boy is not worthy of their Angel Wing lineage girls.
"Have you seen him overstep his bounds with any of the girls around him?" Qian Daoliu suddenly asked.
Uh...
Golden Crocodile Douluo was stunned, and after thinking carefully, it seemed indeed as Qian Daoliu said. Su Yun had the Pope's disciple, the fiancée of the Prince of the Star Luo Empire, the granddaughter of the Poison Douluo, and even seemed to have an unclear relationship with the daughter of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's sect master...
However, this boy seemed to pass through a myriad of flowers without a single leaf sticking to him.
"I once heard someone say, judge by actions not intentions, for if we judge by intentions, there is no one without fault," Qian Daoliu stopped walking, suddenly looking into the distance where Su Yun was sitting and cultivating, blending into the surrounding environment as if he had merged with it, "No matter how many women are around him, it won't stop his progress. His future is bound to be limitless, even touching that realm... and the women around him are just sceneries in his life."
Hearing Qian Daoliu's last sentence, Golden Crocodile Douluo gasped, astonished: "Are you saying, he can also, like Xiao Xue, initiate that legendary divine trial?"
"I've heard you say, initiating a divine trial is not something ordinary people can do. Just him?"
Qian Daoliu did not directly answer but chuckled: "If he really can do it, I will marry Xiao Xue to him. At least, after we die, there will be someone close to accompany Xiao Xue."
Golden Crocodile Douluo snorted, saying: "If he really can do it, I'd rather hit a wall and die than watch Xiao Xue marry him."
Qian Daoliu did not say anything more but waved his hand, and Golden Crocodile Douluo followed him quietly towards another
direction, their figures slowly fading away as if they had never been there.
Until the two Titled Douluo left, Su Yun, who had been sitting on the ground cultivating, suddenly opened his eyes, his gaze clearly carrying a hint of wariness.
"Sister Yin, can you confirm the identity of that spiritual power just now?" Su Yun asked. It was only after a reminder from Ah Yin during his cultivation that Su Yun felt a spiritual force, almost imperceptible to him, locking onto him.
Ah Yin shook her head: "I can't. However, to achieve such a realm with spiritual power, within this Spirit Hall, aside from that female Pope Bibi Dong, it should only be the elders in the Worship Hall who are capable."
The Worship Hall?
Su Yun couldn't help but think of Qian Daoliu. In the years he had been with the Spirit Hall, he had never once seen Qian Daoliu's face, not even his silhouette.
"Could it really be Qian Daoliu? Does he think I have talent and came to inspect whether I'm worthy to be his granddaughter's husband?"
"Or is it Bibi Dong secretly observing me?" Unable to figure it out, Su Yun simply stopped thinking about it.
Now having reached the soul power level of 42, he could say his progress far exceeded his peers. However, a soul power level of 42, on the continent, was not invincible.
"I haven't succeeded in becoming a god; I still need to continue working hard." Just as Su Yun was reflecting inwardly, he heard a rustling sound suddenly coming from behind him.
"Zhu Qing, you're already so grown up, stop messing around." Su Yun identified the person behind him with just a word, immediately followed by a coquettish hum from the little kitten.
"Brother Su Yun, you really always spoil my fun by pointing it out every time," Zhu Qing clung to Su Yun unwillingly to let go, especially since he hadn't accompanied her to sleep for a long time due to his cultivation.
Su Yun lightly flicked Zhu Qing's nose, smilingly said: "That's because your cultivation level is not high enough. You have eaten the Immortal Herb, so you should have surpassed level 30 soul power by now, right? Have you hunted for a soul ring?"
Zhu Qing blinked her big eyes, nodding: "Of course, I'm now also a person with level 31 soul power. A while ago, Sister Nana invited a senior from the Spirit Hall to take me to hunt for soul rings, and I got a thousand-year soul ring!"
At the last sentence, Zhu Qing's face suddenly turned red, whispering: "But compared to Brother Su Yun's fourth soul ring, which is a ten-thousand-year soul ring, my progress indeed seems somewhat insignificant."
Su Yun gently stroked the little kitten's hair, tenderly said: "You don't need to compare with me, just compare with yourself. As long as you do better tomorrow than you did today, even if it's just a little improvement, it means you are progressing."
"This shows you haven't forgotten what you said at the beginning. You told me you wanted to defeat your sister and brother-in-law."
Su Yun's words made Zhu Qing's gaze turn serious, she nodded: "Brother Su Yun, don't worry, one day, I will defeat my sister and brother-in-law by myself, even without that bastard's help, I will cut off all the shackles that were once on me in front of you!"
Zhu Qing, even while indulging in her time with Su Yun, never forgot her purpose for coming to the Spirit Hall.
"If there's ever a day you can't hold on, tell me. As the most solid support by your side, I will help you block them all," Su Yun tenderly smiled: "Of course, if you find that Dai Mubai displeasing, I can also take care of him for you."
To be honest, the original Su Yun wanted to beat up Dai Mubai to vent for Zhu Qing, having never seen someone who abandons his fiancée to flirt with twins in an opposing empire.
But as his cultivation progressed, he finally understood that once he became a strong person, Dai Mubai didn't even have a place in his sight.
Dai Mubai now doesn't even have the qualifications to stand in front of him.
"No need, Brother Su Yun," Zhu Qing placed her finger on Su Yun's lips, slightly shaking her head: "Leave this matter to me, consider it my final settlement with him."
Seeing Zhu Qing so determined, Su Yun naturally did not object.
Zhu Qing also smiled mischievously, retracting her finger from Su Yun's lips, then lightly licked it with her tender little tongue.
Su Yun, seeing Zhu Qing's tempting look, was suddenly startled, almost unable to restrain himself!
Seeing Su Yun's changing expressions, Zhu Qing finally revealed a triumphant smile, cheekily said: "Hehe, Brother Su Yun, I've taken your first kiss."
Su Yun's face was full of shock; he hadn't expected the usually shy Zhu Qing to be so bold this time.
Su Yun knew he was an LSP (Light Shading Personality
), but he would never do anything illegal, at most verbally teasing the beauties around him.
However, seeing the bleeding-like crimson on Zhu Qing's earlobes and neck, Su Yun also understood the courage Zhu Qing mustered to make such an "out-of-line" move today.
"Cough... Zhu Qing, such things are only to be done after becoming an adult. We are still young now, it's not appropriate," Su Yun posed as a gentleman.
Hearing this, Zhu Qing suddenly showed a mischievously bad expression, blinking like a fox: "So, Brother Su Yun, you mean after becoming adults, we can do everything that adults can do?"
Such a sharp question.
Although I'm an LSP, being asked so directly by you, I'd also feel embarrassed, right?
Unable to think of an answer immediately, Su Yun simply gave Zhu Qing a flick on the forehead, causing her to exclaim "Ow."
"In the future, don't hang out with Sister Nana too much, okay? Following her, you'll surely learn bad things. Spend more time with Sister Yan Yan; she is your role model," Su Yun advised earnestly.
He feared letting Zhu Qing stay with Hu Liena any longer; his little kitten might become a reckless driver on Autumn Name Mountain.
After all, one is influenced by the company one keeps.
And Dugu Yan, apart from seeking him out for detoxification, spent the rest of her time in solitary cultivation, shedding the attitude of a haughty young lady and focusing solely on cultivation.
Su Yun believed that with Dugu Yan's guidance, his little kitten would eventually return to her original self.
"Oh," Zhu Qing pouted, covering her little head with her hands in acknowledgment.
Seeing her like this, Su Yun was finally satisfied and nodded.
"Let's go, I'll treat you to a big meal tonight," Su Yun said, pulling Zhu Qing to her feet.
"Sister Yin, what are we eating tonight?"
"Grilled fish."
"Yay, should I call Sister Nana? She likes grilled fish too."
"No, just the two of us."
"Hehe..."
