Ah Yin Is Pregnant? Twelve Great Offerings!
In the original timeline, Qian Daoliu and the others reacted even more strongly than Yu Xiaogang and his companions.
"The three people who appeared on the sky screen are the Golden Iron Triangle: Flender, Yu Xiaogang, and Liu Erlong of the present-day Shrek Academy.
But I never expected Xunji to have romantic entanglements with this Liu Erlong too?"
Golden Crocodile Douluo smiled and stroked his chin as he spoke.
"Big brother, did you know about this? Did Xunji really have a romantic entanglement with this Liu Erlong?"
Unable to contain his curiosity, Azure Luan Douluo turned to Qian Daoliu and asked.
"Ji'er never told me about anything like that. How would I know?"
Qian Daoliu looked helpless. He pressed a hand to his forehead and sighed.
Bibi Dong, standing before the Pope's Palace, saw this, and her face darkened further.
"Well, well. I never expected you to be such a philanderer, Qian Xunji. Even Liu Erlong..."
As Bibi Dong saw it, the only women romantically entangled with Yu Xiaogang were herself and Liu Erlong.
Yet Qian Xunji had to go and get involved with both of them!
Damn you, Qian Xunji. Devouring you back then was the best decision I ever made!
But Qian Xunji of the parallel timeline had truly been wronged!
Qian Xunji of the parallel timeline was currently preparing for his wedding to Ah Yin.
In the parallel Spirit City, Ah Yin, gentle of countenance and heavily pregnant, came out of the house and into the courtyard, supported by the young, beautiful, and kindhearted Bibi Dong.
"Ah Yin, your belly keeps getting bigger. You really should be careful.
Brother Ji cares very much about the child you're carrying. Even Xiao Xue talks about wanting a little brother or sister every day."
The young Bibi Dong looked at Ah Yin's swollen belly and smiled like a mother.
"Dong'er, you've gone to so much trouble. When I first became pregnant, I was worried Xiao Xue might be unhappy. After all, with another child, Brother Ji would pay her a little less attention."
Ah Yin looked at Bibi Dong with a trace of apology and spoke, deeply moved.
"Brother Ji spends all day cultivating, and Xiao Xue can't see him often. Naturally, she wants a little brother or sister to play with her.
Ever since you got pregnant, she's been talking about it in my ear all day!"
Bibi Dong chuckled.
Meanwhile, Qian Xunji of this timeline had just finished his final "Seventh Trial" beneath the divine statue in the Worship Hall.
He was a direct descendant of the Qian Family, one of the Angel God's most outstanding descendants, the son Great Enshrined Qian Daoliu was proudest of, the father of little Qian Renxue, the future Angel God, Bibi Dong's husband, and Ah Yin's future husband-to-be.
Although Qian Xunji's aptitude was inferior to that of both his father, Qian Daoliu, and his little daughter, Qian Renxue, he had still unlocked the Seven Angel Trials.
Although he could not inherit the God of Angels' divine position like his little daughter Qian Renxue,
at least he had a fallback: he could become the Angel God's Great Enshrined, just like his father, Qian Daoliu.
Qian Xunji's goal, however, was to become a god. He had no desire to be a "divine servant."
Qian Daoliu, Golden Crocodile, Azure Luan, and the other four Offerings watched expectantly as Qian Xunji sat cross-legged beneath the Angel God Statue.
"Big brother, can the Pope really condense a Second Soul Core and achieve Yin-Yang Complementarity?"
Seeing Qian Xunji's furrowed brow, Golden Crocodile could not help swallowing as he spoke.
"Yes, big brother. Even you chose Same-Frequency Resonance. That alone shows how terrifying and difficult Yin-Yang Complementarity is.
If the Pope really succeeds, I'm afraid he'll truly be able to break through to level 99 Soul Power and become the youngest Limit Douluo in Spirit Hall's history, won't he?
Even the Sea God took a hundred years to break through to the level of a level 99 Limit Douluo!"
Azure Luan agreed wholeheartedly with Golden Crocodile and nodded along.
"Yin-Yang Complementarity is indeed difficult, but I believe in my son!"
Qian Daoliu breathed out, his expression gradually growing resolute.
"Don't forget Ji'er's life has been nothing short of legendary!"
Hearing Qian Daoliu's words, everyone present fell into thought, recalling Qian Xunji's legendary life.
Qian Daoliu, Great Enshrined.
Golden Crocodile, Second Worship.
Azure Luan, Third Offering.
Lion, Fourth Offering.
Guang Ling, Fifth Offering.
Qian Jun, Sixth Offering.
Jiang Mo, Seventh Offering.
Yue Guan, Eighth Offering.
Gui Mei, Ninth Offering.
Ling Yuan, Tenth Offering.
Demon Bear, Eleventh Offering.
Ghost Leopard, Twelfth Offering!
Yes, you read that right!
Besides the original seven great Offerings, Gui Mei, Yue Guan, Ling Yuan, Demon Bear, and Ghost Leopard had all become new Offerings!
And none of it would have been possible without Qian Xunji!
"If the Pope hadn't bestowed upon me the Immortal Herb Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, which shares the same origin as my Martial Soul, I could never have broken through to level 97 and become the Eighth Offering in this lifetime!"
Yue Guan held his fingers in an orchid gesture as he spoke and looked at Qian Xunji, growing more excited with every word.
"The same goes for me!"
Ling Yuan stood at the very back, looking at the handsome Qian Xunji as he sat cross-legged with his eyes closed. Her face flushed slightly as she spoke, deeply moved.
"If His Holiness the Pope hadn't bestowed the Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower upon me and helped me cleanse my phoenix bloodline,
how could my Martial Soul possibly have evolved from a Blazing Spirit Kite into a pure Fire Phoenix?
My Soul Power would have reached level 95 at most in this lifetime. I wouldn't have reached my current level of 96, joined the Worship Hall, and become the Tenth Offering!"
Gui Mei, Demon Bear, and Ghost Leopard also spoke with emotion:
"If His Holiness the Pope hadn't taken us traveling far and wide, how could we have found the opportunities to break through to level 96 and become new Offerings?"
The original seven great Offerings could be said to have watched Qian Xunji grow up.
The five new Offerings who had joined the Worship Hall, meanwhile, were completely loyal to Qian Xunji.
Thus, the Worship Hall had formed "two centers."
On one side were the "old hands," Golden Crocodile, Azure Luan, and the others, who were in Qian Daoliu's camp.
On the other were Chrysanthemum, Ghost, Ling Yuan, Demon Bear, and Ghost Leopard, who were in Qian Xunji's camp.
None of that mattered, however, since Qian Daoliu and Qian Xunji were father and son.
This was unlike the original story, where, more than a decade later, Qian Daoliu's Worship Hall camp and Bibi Dong's Pope's Palace camp came to stand against each other.
Among the five new great Offerings, Yue Guan was the exception: he had refined the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, an Immortal Herb of the same origin as his Martial Soul, to replenish his foundation and break through to level 97.
The other four all had level 96 Soul Power.
As for the original seven great Offerings,
Qian Daoliu's Soul Power remained unchanged at level 99. However, using the Soul Core method Qian Xunji had provided, he had condensed two Soul Cores and achieved Same-Frequency Resonance, bringing his combat strength to the Demigod level even without using Angel Divine Power.
With the Soul Core method Qian Xunji had given him, along with some resources and Qian Daoliu's guidance, Golden Crocodile had broken through to become a level 99 Limit Douluo, though with considerable difficulty.
Azure Luan and Lion's Soul Power had risen one level from their original level 97, reaching level 98.
The brothers Qian Jun and Jiang Mo had raised their Soul Power from level 96 to level 97.
Leaving everything else aside, sending out just half the people in the Worship Hall today would have been enough to reduce the entire Douluo Continent to rubble!
