The Meeting Gift-or a Token of Love?

"Second Grandfather, Wulin."

"I'm not feeling well today, so I'll... no, how about we get together again tomorrow afternoon? I'll treat you all to dinner in Heaven Dou City then."

Qian Renxue took a deep breath, calming her complex emotions, and smiled slightly.

See you tomorrow...

"Alright, Sister Xue'er, since you're not feeling well right now, let's meet properly another time."

Upon hearing this, Tang Wulin smiled and nodded, readily agreeing, while a thoughtful thought lingered in his mind:

He said he felt something was off, and realized the person in front of him wasn't feeling well. He even thought that Senior Golden Crocodile was hiding something from him.

"Oh, right, this is a gift for Sister Xue'er."

"This is a Heavenly Treasure that's perfect for you. Consuming it will greatly benefit your cultivation. You just need to peel it and eat it."

As he spoke, he took out a beautiful Jade Box from his Soul Tool, placed it on the other person's desk with a smile, and wore a faint smile on his face.

"Um...?"

"Thank you, Wulin, but I..."

Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue was taken aback, a hint of embarrassment on her face.

She had no idea that Wulin would come today, and she certainly didn't have any gifts to offer! At this moment, even as the young master of the Worship Hall, she was inevitably somewhat helpless.

"It's fine."

"Sister Xue'er absorbing this Immortal Herb to improve herself is already a very good gift."

Tang Wulin smiled and shook his head gently.

"I..."

Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue was taken aback, a strange emotion flickering in her eyes, and could only nod.

Is Xiao Wu Wulin showing concern for her?

How can improving one's own cultivation level be considered a gift?

However, the other party couldn't be unaware of her own potential, could they? She possessed the Innate Level 20 Soul Power; what Heavenly Treasures in this world could possibly help her?

"Miss, since we'll be meeting Wulin again tomorrow, we'll be taking our leave now."

At this moment, seeing Qian Renxue trying to make a temporary excuse, Golden Crocodile Douluo was not flustered at all. Instead, a look of joy appeared on his face, and he was more than happy.

Indeed, perhaps the young lady is currently making excuses and doesn't want to finalize the marriage with Wulin so soon.

However, you can't judge a book by its cover...

The outcome is equally important, and the outcome this time is that the two will be able to see each other again tomorrow. The implications of seeing each other for two days are self-evident.

The young lady has no aversion to Wulin, and isn't this the beginning of their story? That's perfect!

Thinking of this, he instantly took Tang Wulin and vanished in a flash, leaving behind Qian Renxue, whose expression was far from calm.

"Is Second Grandfather leaving with Wulin already?"

At that moment, she couldn't help but mutter to herself, and then sat back down in her chair, as if the previous experience had exhausted all her energy.

Phew, they're finally gone!

"Engaged? Grandpa, really! Second Grandpa is going too far! I've only met Xiao Wu Wulin a few times, and he's already engaged..."

She couldn't help but mutter helplessly.

She admitted that Wulin was indeed a very powerful genius, a twelve-year-old Quasi-Soul King, who had even surpassed her; he was too strong.

But we can't get engaged like this!

Although Wulin was indeed very good, and she wasn't that opposed to him, but... she was still just a child!

"Pufferfish, what are your thoughts on Snake Lance?"

Qian Renxue quickly shook her head, suppressing her emotions. As she spoke, she looked at the two Titled Douluo Pufferfish, Snake Lance, standing to the side.

"This..."

Upon hearing this, the two exchanged a glance, their faces clearly showing contemplation. A short while later, they both spoke in unison:

"We, the two of you, extend our heartfelt congratulations to Miss and His Highness Wulin. May you enjoy a long and happy life together."

"..."

"You... that's enough!"

Qian Renxue silently waved her hand, indicating that the two had spoken very well and didn't need to repeat themselves next time.

With such intentions, why are these two serving as elders of the Spirit Hall? They should go and matchmake new people!

As she pondered this, her gaze inadvertently drifted to the desk, focusing on the Jade Box left behind by the other party.

After all, it was a gift from Wulin to her when they first met, so of course she had to pay close attention to it. But soon, she realized that something was wrong.

At this moment, even through the Jade Box, she could feel the aura of Light and Fire within, as if it were drawing her in.

"This is..."

"Lotus?"

Qian Renxue immediately realized that things were not so simple.

As she pondered this, she immediately opened the Jade Box, and a Fire Lotus- shaped flower shimmering with golden light instantly appeared before her.

At this moment, she couldn't help but widen her eyes slightly, feeling a bit surprised. She could naturally sense that even for her, this herb could have a good effect.

"What kind of Heavenly Treasure is this?"

Qian Renxue couldn't help but mutter to herself. She had initially thought that the woman had simply asked the other party to bring the Spirit Hall's rare and Heavenly Treasures, but now she clearly didn't think so.

Because if the Spirit Hall really had herbs that would be of great help to him, his grandfather would definitely send them over as soon as possible.

"This really was prepared for me by Wulin..."

Qian Renxue gently picked up the Heavenly Treasure before her, her face filled with an indescribable emotion. Was this a gift for their first meeting, or a letter of betrothal...?

"..."

A blush flashed across Qian Renxue's face, and then she took a deep breath, holding the flowers in her hands while looking at the two Pufferfish beside her.

"Elders, I'm going to absorb this herb."

"Please protect me."

Qian Renxue suppressed her emotions and said calmly, "I also want to see what effect this Heavenly Treasure Wulin gave me will have."

"Yes, miss."

"..."

"Wulin, what do you think of Xue'er?"

On the way back, Golden Crocodile Douluo asked with a good mood.

"Um?"

"Sister Xue'er is very talented and very beautiful."

Tang Wulin was taken aback, and then responded.

"Right, right?"

"Miss, your talent and appearance are both outstanding, Wulin, this is the standard you should set for your future partner..."

Golden Crocodile Douluo said with a sigh.

"Senior Golden Crocodile, this..."

Upon hearing the question, Tang Wulin instantly understood the other person's implication or explicit suggestion: they must be trying to match him up with Sister Xue'er.

Just like in previous years, on many occasions when he met Qian Daoliu, the way the other party looked at him was indeed not so innocent, but at the moment he really had no feelings for Sister Xue'er.

It wasn't that he looked down on the other person; to be precise, it wasn't the right time for someone as shameless as him.

The first reason is undoubtedly the huge age difference between him and Qian Renxue. Moreover, he is only twelve years old now, which means that she will only see him as a younger brother.

Secondly, his relationship with Zhu Zhuqing hasn't even progressed that far yet, let alone Xiao Wu Rongrong. If they were to actually be together with Sister Xue'er...

With the Great Enshrined and the Golden Crocodile, his constant companions, safety is guaranteed, but it's still impossible for him to escape like everyone else.

"It's fortunate I'm only twelve years old now. If I were a few years older, seventeen, or even sixteen, I'm afraid I really would..."

Tang Wulin couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

If possible, he still really wants to give Zhu Zhuqing, Rongrong, and Xiao Wu a home, as for whether it's possible...

Even if it's not allowed, it has to be allowed!

"Wulin, don't blame me for being long-winded."

"That little girl named Zhu Zhuqing, Ning Rongrong from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and even that Xiao Wu..."

Neither of them are your destined partner.

At this moment, as they were about to land again in Dugu Bo's courtyard, Golden Crocodile Douluo spoke earnestly.

He acknowledged that the little girls had some talent, but compared to the young lady, it was utterly insignificant.

He thought Wulin should also be able to recognize the difference between them.

But they're very nice.

Upon hearing this, Tang Wulin shook his head, looked at the person in front of him, and slowly said.

Golden Crocodile Douluo: "..."

At that moment, his smiling face froze instantly. Wulin, do you want to hear what you're saying?!

Those three little girls, what's so great about them!

Yes, they did have a good relationship with you, but the young lady's relationship with you afterwards won't be any worse!

Compared to the young lady, what are those three?

"Senior Golden Crocodile, I'll go back to my room to cultivate now."

After that, Tang Wulin didn't stay in the courtyard any longer. He left those words and headed towards his room.

"Wulin..."

"Well!"

Golden Crocodile Douluo sighed. It seemed that getting Wulin to focus his attention on the young lady was not an easy task!

"I hope Miss can expedite the process!"

"As long as she agrees, I'll take Wulin back to the Worship Hall and finalize their marriage with the boss..."

His eyes were thoughtful, but he quickly stopped again. The idea was simple, but putting it into practice was not easy at all!

Miss, you absolutely must... you absolutely must agree to this marriage!

"Senior, what's wrong with you?"

Also in the courtyard, seeing Golden Crocodile Douluo's gloomy expression, Dugu Bo wondered what was wrong with him and walked over with a puzzled look on his face.

Golden Crocodile Douluo glanced at him, but already in a bad mood, he didn't say much, only uttering a single word.

"Roll."

"..."

Dugu Bo immediately responded, trembling.

It was at this moment that his smiling face instantly fell, and he couldn't help but gasp, silently making up his mind:

I will never initiate a conversation with that person again. Strong people really do have strong personalities; it's terrifying.

It was at this moment that he realized how he was perceived by weaker Soul Masters.

Sigh, His Highness Wulin is still the most approachable. I wish he could be my granddaughter's husband...

Dugu Bo shook his head, clearing his mind of all the chaotic thoughts, and looked towards Dugu Yan's room, quietly waiting for her to finish absorbing the Immortal Herb.

Instead of worrying about these things, he should think more about what level Yan Yan's cultivation would reach after absorbing the Immortal Herb!
