Qian Renxue returned home satisfied.
The naive girl had no idea what kind of dire situation she would face next, but for now, she had been reassured by Su Chen.
"That's really something."
Su Chen shook his head, got up and walked towards the underground base.
Given his current relationship with Bibi Dong, he is certainly capable of getting involved in this matter.
However, nothing can be rushed; we must take it slowly.
With this in mind, the boy began his experiments and training.
A month has passed in the blink of an eye.
In the past month, the Spirit Hall has experienced tremendous upheaval.
Just as Elder Yin said, the emergence of cultivation methods is not only an impact on the Spirit Hall, but also an impact on the entire cultivation system of Douluo Continent.
No Soul Master can refuse an increase in strength.
This move even alarmed many titled Douluo who had long since retired or gone into seclusion. The Hall of Offerings and the Hall of Elders mobilized to search for Bibi Dong and inquire about the cultivation method.
Bibi Dong did not give up this good opportunity.
Using the momentum of cultivation techniques, they thoroughly purged the neutral and high-ranking members of the Angel lineage, punishing some and transferring others. Before Qian Daoliu could react, they even broke down and embellished the news, spreading it to the middle and lower levels, causing a huge sensation.
With the support and encouragement of low- and middle-level Soul Masters, and by using this as a core to win over many Elders and Worshipers, Bibi Dong's power and prestige reached their peak in a short time.
This future empress of the Martial Soul Empire revealed for the first time something beyond her unparalleled cultivation talent.
That is bloody decisiveness, the toughest political tactic.
As one of the key figures in the incident, Su Chen, the inventor of the cultivation method, enjoyed a rare period of relative peace.
He cultivated step by step, conducted experiments, honed his ninjutsu, talked with Tianmeng, or occasionally went out for a stroll with Qian Renxue and took Su Xiao to recuperate.
Since that night, Bibi Dong has been extremely busy, rarely returning to the garden. When she does come back, she only stands quietly at the base entrance for a while, and then disappears without a trace once Su Chen notices her tired, wine-red eyes.
Su Chen was a little awkward at first, but she gradually got used to it.
However, this peace did not last long before it was shattered by unexpected news.
"Have all the forces arrived?"
The boy, wearing a white lab coat and black-rimmed glasses, was shaking the solution in his glass when he heard this. He looked up and asked in surprise.
"Yes. It should be said that the major powers all arrived a few days ago."
Qian Renxue nodded. The girl was sitting gracefully on the sofa, looking at the thing in the boy's hand with some curiosity.
Today she wore a simple white long dress that covered her knees, revealing a section of her fair and shapely calves.
Is this the cultivation method Su Chen researched? Amazing!
Looking at the unfamiliar instruments and experimental subjects, the girl wore an expression of bewilderment and awe.
"A major power?"
Su Chen paused slightly, placed the solution on the shelf, and used tweezers to pick up a crystal and put it into it. A faint, strange fluctuation quickly spread out, but disappeared after a moment.
Another failure. Oh well, let's call it a day.
The boy shook his head in disappointment, placed the measuring cup on the shelf, took off his glasses and white coat, revealing his simple training clothes.
He washed his hands, picked up the teapot, poured two cups, and handed one to Qian Renxue.
"Go on."
He was quite interested in this, since he might have to play himself eventually.
It's always good to know more information.
"Well, as far as I know, all of the three upper sects and the four lower sects except for the Haotian Sect have sent people, as well as the two great empires, the five great academies, and some lesser-known forces."
Qian Renxue withdrew her curious gaze, picked up her teacup and took a sip. After thinking for a moment, she said, "In short, if you participate in the competition, you might have to face students who are much older than you, and they are all geniuses."
The reward of three soul bones was enough to make all the forces take notice. In addition, the age limit was the same as that of the Soul Master Competition. Even the Heaven Dou Royal Family changed their minds and temporarily formed a team to try their luck.
"If that's the case, then it's indeed quite difficult."
Su Chen stroked his chin and pondered.
He didn't want to reveal his spirit rings in such a chaotic competition.
The first ring in a thousand years can be barely explained, but ten thousand years is a bit too terrifying.
So far, only Bibi Dong and Chrysanthemum Demon Lord know this secret.
Even in a competition of this continental level, one wrong move and you could easily be targeted by the divine realm.
That would be troublesome.
After all, the place where we live now has a human representative of the gods.
Defeating a team of geniuses composed of all forces without using one's martial spirit is indeed a rather troublesome problem.
"Right? And I heard that the competition format has been changed this time, and there will be a big free-for-all later on."
Qian Renxue added, "If you need the materials, I'll have someone send them to you later."
Clang clang—
Just as Su Chen was about to say something, there was a knock on the door. Su Xiao poked his head out, "Son, Elder Ju is here. It seems she wants to see you. Would you like to..."
His gaze lingered for a moment on the somewhat uneasy, beautiful blonde girl, then turned to the boy, winking discreetly. "Want to stop for a moment?"
"Sorry for taking so long, see you later!"
Qian Renxue stood up somewhat awkwardly, a blush rising on her pretty face. She hurriedly bowed and, without waiting for the young man to stop her, rushed out.
"Father, you really are..."
Su Chen looked helplessly at Su Xiao, who was making faces at him, and said, "Could you please stop teasing that young girl all the time?"
Because of the need to discuss some plans, Qian Renxue often came to see Su Chen. For convenience, he simply moved all the subsequent experiments to his home.
In any case, the preliminary research has been basically completed, and what remains is mainly to repeat simple practices.
Unexpectedly, after a while, perhaps because the two often had private conversations, Su Xiao misunderstood something, and from then on, he began to treat Qian Renxue as his daughter-in-law.
Poor Qian Renxue had never experienced anything like this before, especially since this was the father of her only friend. She couldn't hit him, scold him, or say anything to him, not to mention that he had no ill intentions and even took better care of her than she did.
Over time, this led the girl to develop a phobia of Su Xiao, and she would run away every time she saw him.
The fact that he could scare the future Angel God away makes me wonder if Su Xiao will feel arrogant if he finds out.
"Nonsense, I'm not joking. I saw that the girl's eyes were full of you."
Su Xiao shook his head and said earnestly.
"You'd better hurry up. A girl as beautiful and elegant as her, I've only ever seen His Holiness the Pope. I'm helping you, do you understand?"
Su Chen was even a little impressed with his cheap father's eye for talent.
How can they not be similar?
They are mother and daughter.
"Dad, I'm only six years old."
He sighed. "Didn't you say Chrysanthemum Douluo was looking for me?"
"Oh, right, right, look at my memory, let's go out quickly."
Su Xiao patted his head, took two steps, then turned back and snorted, "So what if I was six? Your father was six... cough cough, fourteen when I touched your mother's hand, as my son."
The boy ignored his rambling and walked into the living room, where he saw Chrysanthemum Douluo staring blankly at the ceiling, her beautiful face looking much more haggard.
Upon seeing Su Chen emerge, he slowly turned his head, his eyes trembled, and two lines of clear tears actually flowed from his eyes.
"you"
"I've been searching for this for so long!!!"
