Qian Renxue's Beloved? Taking Bibi Dong to Harvest Immortal Herbs!
Spirit Hall.
The Pope's bedchamber.
Liang Hao's victory was still something Bibi Dong had not anticipated.
After watching the battle, Bibi Dong gave an objective assessment. "Liang Hao's victory was definitely not just because his attributes and Martial Soul countered his opponent's."
"He possesses elemental control, so he can indeed avoid damage from elements of the same attribute."
"But every counter depends on scale and strength."
"If the gap between Liang Hao's Soul Power and his enemy's were too great, he wouldn't be immune."
"This battle shows that his strength is already not far behind a Three-Ring Soul Master's..."
"He really is a monster!"
Bibi Dong could only marvel in amazement. "It's a good thing this boy joined my Spirit Hall."
"His talent even surpasses mine. If he had fallen into another faction's hands, that would have been trouble."
"If he comes back in the future, I must be more proactive, lest such a heaven's chosen slip away..."
Heaven Dou City.
The crown prince's bedchamber.
Qian Renxue's expression was solemn as well.
Only at this moment did she truly understand how terrifying Liang Hao's talent was.
Qian Renxue said, "Although this fellow is Bibi Dong's disciple, he's still a member of Spirit Hall."
"I still have a chance to win him over!"
"As long as I bring him to my side, Liang Hao and I can work with one heart and one mind to sweep away every obstacle on this continent!"
"The only trouble is that Bibi Dong keeps a close eye on him, and Liang Hao seems to have feelings for Hu Liena?"
"To win him over, could it be that I need to reveal my female form to him myself?"
"Grandfather once said that all men under heaven are the same! Perhaps, for the sake of the great undertaking, I'll have to make some sacrifices too, but it doesn't matter."
"The man I seek should be one of a kind under heaven, invincible in all the world!"
"If Liang Hao can truly achieve that, joining with him in marriage would make a fine tale..."
As a woman, how could Qian Renxue not want to find a man stronger than herself?
Unfortunately, she had searched the world over and simply could not find a worthy match.
Only now, after seeing Liang Hao, did she have some hope.
In the original story, she had easily developed feelings for Tang San precisely because he was outstanding.
And now Liang Hao was even more outstanding. Could she catch up to Tang San?
As Qian Renxue pondered, she watched the light screen, looking forward to Liang Hao's next move.
On the light screen.
Liang Hao dealt with Yan easily and did not take it to heart.
He had done what he had promised Hu Liena and had originally planned to return and continue meditating.
But Hu Liena disagreed and insisted on dragging Liang Hao out for a stroll.
She explained clearly, "Liang Hao, an outstanding Soul Master can't shut himself in his room every day and build a cart behind closed doors."
"Teacher once said that this world and its mortal affairs are also part of what we must comprehend."
"Besides, you helped me, your senior sister, deal with a problem. It's not too much for me to treat you to a meal and a show, is it?"
Liang Hao did want to refuse. After all, although he liked women, he wouldn't like a little girl who was only eleven.
So he had little interest in Hu Liena right now, much less in eating and strolling around with her.
But Hu Liena was interested and insisted on dragging Liang Hao around. Left with no choice, he followed her.
The two of them went to the streets of Spirit City to relax.
Eating some good food, watching opera, and playing a few little games did indeed make Liang Hao feel a little happier.
The two played until evening before returning, and Hu Liena was very satisfied. She parted from Liang Hao with great reluctance.
But in any case, Hu Liena wasn't wrong. As a Soul Master, no matter how much one wanted to grow stronger, it was impossible to spend all one's time cultivating.
Besides, Hu Liena was so enthusiastic and proactive.
So in the days that followed, although Liang Hao spent most of his time cultivating, he occasionally went out for a stroll with Hu Liena.
Their feelings for each other naturally grew during those days.
In the blink of an eye, with Liang Hao speeding things up, a month passed.
Bibi Dong also came by from time to time to give him some instruction, and Liang Hao occasionally went out to have fun with Hu Liena.
The relationships among the three of them progressed as time passed.
All of Bibi Dong's affairs were in order, and she would have considerably more free time for a while.
Liang Hao therefore felt the time was about right and prepared to go exchange for the Immortal Herbs.
One day, Bibi Dong came to the training ground to personally instruct Liang Hao and the others in their cultivation.
Because Yan and Xie Yue were fairly talented, they generally got to hear Bibi Dong's pointers as well.
With Bibi Dong keeping him in check, Yan dared not cause trouble, so the children got along fairly peacefully.
Just then, Yan and Hu Liena's fight came to an end, and Bibi Dong casually offered a few comments:
"Yan, can you afford to hold back in battle?"
"I came here to instruct you so that you would cultivate in earnest, not chase women!"
"If you don't want to train, I'll have Xiao Hao and Nana train!"
"Xiao Hao, how about it? Do you want to have a match with your senior sister?"
Bibi Dong gave instruction and reprimands just as she usually did, without sparing her students' feelings.
Liang Hao, however, had something else on his mind at the moment.
Only yesterday, he had heard Bibi Dong say that she would have more free time for a while and could spend more time teaching Liang Hao and the others.
So Liang Hao gathered his thoughts and decided to bring up the important matter.
When Liang Hao heard Bibi Dong call him, he hurried forward and cupped his hands.
"Teacher, I'm ready whenever you are."
"But Senior Sister is a little tired too, so why don't we take a short break?"
"As it happens, there's something I've been thinking about for a long time. I feel I should speak up, and I'd like to take this chance to tell you."
"Oh? What is it?" Bibi Dong could see that Hu Liena was tired too, so she agreed to a break.
But now that Liang Hao had suddenly mentioned something he had been thinking about for a long time, she was prepared to listen.
The group simply returned to the nearby rest room first.
Liang Hao explained to Bibi Dong:
"Teacher, you know that my Martial Soul is the Auspicious Qilin."
"The Qilin is an ancient Auspicious Beast with extraordinary fortune and great significance, so my Martial Soul also possesses some special abilities."
"During this time, I've been focusing on meditation and discovered that my Qilin Martial Soul seems to have vaguely sensed some special fortune."
"It has guided me, suggesting that some supreme treasures may remain in the Sunset Forest of the Heaven Dou Empire. They should be of help to my cultivation."
"I didn't believe it at first. After all, talk of fortune is far too elusive."
"But as I spent more time cultivating, this sensation grew increasingly strong, so I came to think there probably really was something good in the Sunset Forest."
"Teacher, you happened to say yesterday that you'd have more free time recently, so I was wondering if you could take me there to have a look?"
"If there are supreme treasures, we won't come out at a loss once we get our hands on them!"
Having finished, Liang Hao looked at Bibi Dong with sincere, shining eyes.
This excuse was crude, with all its talk of sensing fortune and guidance from his Martial Soul.
But it couldn't be disproved. If he said he sensed something, who could tell whether it was true or false?
In any case, as long as Liang Hao took Bibi Dong to the Sunset Forest and got the Immortal Herbs, wouldn't his story come true?
Liang Hao had thought about it for several days and only brought it up because he felt this was the most suitable explanation.
As long as he got the Immortal Herbs, he would have a chance to break through to a ten-thousand-year second ring...
