"Elder Dugu, you flatter me."

Seeing Dugu Bo's sincere submission, Qian Xunfeng changed how he addressed him. Then he turned around and transformed Dugu Tian's martial soul as well.

After his efforts, Dugu Bo had not only completely refined the remaining Soul Power from absorbing his ninth Soul Ring and reached Level 92, but Dugu Tian had also gained the potential to attain a Title.

It was a joyous outcome for everyone.

"Next, I'll give the child in her womb a bit of fortune."

Qian Xunfeng came before Qiu Yan and first used divine power to directly replenish her vitality, ensuring that nothing would go wrong.

Then he gradually infused strands of divine power into Qiu Yan's body. However, Qian Xunfeng soon frowned.

He had discovered that Qiu Yan was carrying Dragon and Phoenix Twins!

This sudden change, which did not match the original story, made him somewhat worried that it might affect the future.

After some thought, Qian Xunfeng released his divine power and communicated with the World Consciousness, which had only just been born and had yet to develop intelligence.

A moment later, he understood the cause and effect.

His transmigration had caused slight fluctuations in space-time, though the impact was nearly zero. Perhaps a family that would originally have had only one child now had twins, or perhaps twins who would originally have been born no longer existed.

"The impact isn't significant."

Qian Xunfeng continued using divine power to transform and purify the martial souls of the Dragon and Phoenix Twins in Qiu Yan's womb, guiding them to evolve toward Divine Martial Souls.

An hour later, cold sweat formed on Qian Xunfeng's forehead. Clearly, creating Divine Martial Souls was still too taxing for the divine power of a minor Divine Official like him.

"That's done. Congratulations, kid. Qiu Yan is carrying Dragon and Phoenix Twins."

"What?!"

Dugu Tian was stunned at first, then exclaimed in surprise as he hurried to Qiu Yan's side. The love in his eyes deepened.

Once Dugu Bo came to his senses, he too felt fortunate that he had encountered Qian Xunfeng. Otherwise, forget the Dragon and Phoenix Twins—even his daughter-in-law would not have been saved.

At that thought, Dugu Bo's mind turned, and an idea surfaced.

"Your Excellency the Pope, Tian'er's children have received your grace. Why not let Your Excellency give them their names?"

Now that he had joined Spirit Hall, Dugu Bo naturally hoped to establish a connection with Qian Xunfeng for the future.

"The girl will be called Dugu Yan, and the boy will be called Dugu Qiubai."

Thinking of the Dugu surname, a trace of mischief gradually flashed through Qian Xunfeng's eyes.

Dugu Qiubai—what a good name!

Upon hearing the name Dugu Qiubai, Dugu Bo shuddered at first, then felt a little regretful. Why had his own father never thought of such a domineering name?

No, if he had taken such a name, he might have been beaten to death before even earning his Title.

Fortunately, he had joined Spirit Hall. This name was a perfect match for his grandson. If nothing else, it suited Dugu Bo's personality perfectly.

"Isn't that a little too ostentatious?"

Dugu Tian was not an old monster like Dugu Bo, and he was still somewhat afraid that his son would suffer a brutal beating from society because of that name.

"Don't worry. Their martial souls have already evolved into Divine Martial Souls, the Jade Green Chain Snake. At the very least, they will become Level 99 Peerless Douluo in the future. I will protect them."

After all, their martial souls had been fully transformed with his divine power. They would certainly possess Innate Full Soul Power. If he had already become a god, even an innate Soul Power Level of 20 would have been possible.

"Thank you, Your Excellency. When should this old man report to Spirit Hall for duty?"

Dugu Bo was in an excellent mood today. Not only had his strength advanced further, but his daughter-in-law was safe and sound, and she was carrying Dragon and Phoenix Twins. He was about to become a grandfather.

"Elder Dugu may remain in Heaven Dou City for now. When I have need of you, I will naturally inform you."

Qian Xunfeng still needed Dugu Bo to deal with Buddha Tang. Spirit Hall did not lack a newly minted Title Douluo, so it was better to leave him in Heaven Dou as a hidden piece.

"Very well, then this old man shall take his leave."

Now that arrangements had been made, Dugu Bo saw Qian Xunfeng holding Ah Yin and did not linger any longer. He hurriedly departed with the other two.

Another year and a half passed, and Qian Xunfeng successfully broke through to Level 99, becoming a Peerless Douluo.

Inside a room.

"Order Third Trial completed. Reward: all Soul Ring ages increased by fifty thousand years, Order Authority 10%." "Order Fourth Trial: absorb six Soul Bones, each at least ten thousand years old. Reward: all Soul Bone ages increased by one million years, forming the Order Set, Order Authority 10%."

Thanks to his experience fusing the Order Authority several times before, Qian Xunfeng successfully refined it in only half a year this time.

But wasn't this Fourth Trial practically being handed to him for free? All he had to do was return and casually find six suitable Ten Thousand Year Soul Bones to make up a Soul Bone set.

"Ah Yin, come back to Spirit Hall with me."

After a year of Qian Xunfeng's efforts, Ah Yin now faintly exuded the aura of a virtuous wife, making her even more alluring.

It was just a pity that she had not become pregnant yet. Qian Xunfeng's Soul Power Level was too high, and the quality of his martial soul was too strong. Having a child was practically like winning the lottery.

"Xunfeng, is it really okay? But I still haven't..."

As she spoke, she rubbed her lower abdomen and said somewhat guiltily.

"It isn't your fault. My cultivation is simply too high."

He stroked Ah Yin's silky hand and said with a wicked smile, "Besides, at worst, we can just try a few more times."

"Mm, all right."

After Ah Yin spoke, her face became even more flushed, like a ripe peach. Qian Xunfeng could not resist kissing her.

"You're awful!"

After a day of travel, Qian Xunfeng brought Ah Yin to the Pope's Palace. The moment they entered, a streak of light shot toward them.

"You unfilial son! You've been gone for years—what have you been doing?!"

Qian Daoliu instantly blocked Qian Xunfeng's retreat, veins bulging on his forehead. He was clearly deeply dissatisfied that Qian Xunfeng had left without saying goodbye.

But when he saw the lovely young woman in Qian Xunfeng's arms, his eyes immediately lit up. He asked in delighted surprise, "Ahem, Feng'er, and this is?"

"Father, this is my beloved, Ah Yin."

Qian Xunfeng naturally knew what the old man was thinking. He had been desperate for Qian Xunfeng to find a partner, and today Qian Xunfeng had finally brought one home.

"Good, good, good! Feng'er, you've finally come to your senses."

Having received the answer he wanted, Qian Daoliu beamed with delight as he looked at Qian Xunfeng with satisfaction. He sighed to himself that the boy had finally grown up.

"Father, I plan to hold a wedding with Ah Yin in one month. I'll need your help then."

As the Pope, Qian Xunfeng's wedding had to be grand, if nothing else. After all, he was the most revered person in the eyes of the continent's soul masters.

Even if he wanted to keep it simple, he could not. Besides, since he was marrying Ah Yin, the woman who loved him deeply, why not make it as grand as possible?

"Good. For the next few days, just accompany Ah Yin. Let your younger brother stay busy for a few more days. You really ought to thank Ji'er properly—he works for you every day."

Qian Daoliu was greatly pleased with the two brothers, Qian Xunfeng and Qian Xunji. Although Qian Xunfeng was unreliable, his talent was exceptional. Qian Xunji's talent was lacking, but he was diligent and capable.

That way, Qian Xunfeng would be better suited to become Grand Elder in the future. If they had to choose a Pope, it would still have to be Qian Xunji, since Qian Xunfeng's temperament was far too unrestrained.

"Oh, right. In a few days, your niece Qian Renxue, Xue'er, will awaken her martial soul. You can go see her then. You are her uncle, after all, yet you haven't met her even once since she was born."

As he spoke, Qian Daoliu grew angry again. But considering that Ah Yin was present, he lowered the Angel Scepter he had just raised and prepared to announce to the world that, one month from now, they were to attend the Pope's wedding.
