Seeing Qian Daoliu Again
Angel Temple!
The enormous Angel God Statue stood tall, and an indescribable divine majesty emanated from it, spreading in all directions.
Qian Daoliu, dressed in white, stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes fixed intently on the Angel Statue in front of him.
"Xue'er is now over level sixty, and her Martial Soul has evolved into Eight-Winged Angel. It's time to begin this final inheritance. With Xue'er's talent, she should be able to trigger the Nine Trials!"
Qian Daoliu muttered to himself, "It should have started a year ago, but that kid never came back, so Xue'er was always restless and unable to concentrate. Fortunately, he finally came back today, and it's time to take this final step."
Qian Daoliu's tone carried a hint of expectation, yet also a touch of melancholy, "I hope that the goal that our Angel Clan has strived for for ten thousand years can be realized through Xue'er!"
"The glory of Angel will surely shine upon the entire continent."
A hint of longing appeared on Qian Daoliu's face. This was his most lofty goal and his greatest wish in this life.
"Tap tap tap!" A series of footsteps sounded as Lu Yuan and Qian Renxue walked hand in hand into the Angel Temple.
"You've arrived?" Hearing footsteps behind him, Qian Daoliu around with a gentle smile on his face.
"Grandpa!" Qian Renxue called softly.
"Call someone!" Qian Renxue gently squeezed Lu Yuan's hand and gave him an urging look.
"Grandpa!" Seeing Qian Renxue's urging gaze, Lu Yuan had no choice but to call Qian Daoliu "Grandpa." Well, he would just do it to give Qian Renxue face.
Upon hearing how the two addressed each other, Qian Daoliu's smile deepened.
His gaze first swept over Qian Renxue, with a hint of kindness and affection. Qian Daoliu naturally doted on his only granddaughter.
His gaze shifted slightly, then fell upon Lu Yuan beside him. He scrutinized him intently for a moment before saying, "So you've finally decided to come back? Do you know how much Xue'er has missed you this past year?"
"She lost her appetite because of you, and she's become so thin and haggard. It breaks my heart to see her like this. You brat, you've been with another woman for a year and haven't come home. Do you even care about Xue'er anymore?"
Qian Daoliu stared directly at Lu Yuan, his gaze carrying a hint of questioning.
"Grandpa, Xiao Yuan. He had no choice. Besides, if it weren't for me, Xiao Yuan wouldn't have been so badly injured and on the verge of death by the Evil Soul Master, and he wouldn't have been kept here for a year. It's all my fault, and it has nothing to do with Xiao Yuan." Before Lu Yuan could even open his mouth in the face of Qian Daoliu's questioning, Qian Renxue couldn't wait to explain for Lu Yuan.
"Sigh!" Seeing Qian Renxue's anxious look, Qian Daoliu couldn't help but sigh. His granddaughter really had her whole heart devoted to this boy!
"Xiao Yuan, Xue'er is so devoted to you, you must not let her down, otherwise I will never let you off the hook." With Qian Renxue intervening, Qian Daoliu naturally couldn't question her anymore, and could only admonish his grandson-in-law as a grandfather.
What? You're not married yet, so you can't call him grandson-in-law?
They've already slept together, so what does it matter whether they get married or not? Besides, with my granddaughter like this, how could she possibly escape this guy's clutches in this lifetime?
They've been completely under their thumb for a long time.
Even he, as the grandfather, could only accept his fate in this situation. Moreover, this boy was indeed very outstanding and truly worthy of his Xiao Xue.
"Grandpa, don't worry. Xue'er is the most important person in my heart. I will never let her down. To me, she is more important than my life." Lu Yuan said seriously.
"Hmm, that's more like it!" Qian Daoliu believed Lu Yuan's assurance. Putting aside everything else, didn't this kid risk his life to save Xue'er during their trip to the Mist Forest a year ago?
He treats Xue'er very well, so I can rest assured that I can entrust Xue'er to him.
As for what I said earlier, it was just out of a grandfather's love for his granddaughter that he couldn't help but remind her.
"Judging from your aura, your strength seems to have reached level fifty-seven?" Qian Daoliu Lu Yuan with a hint of amazement in his eyes.
At fourteen years old and at level fifty-seven, that talent is even higher than that of Xue'er.
As expected of someone who has inherited the legacy of a God King, the future of the Spirit Hall will truly depend on him and Xue'er.
"Yes, I managed to reach level fifty-seven by sheer luck!" Meeting Qian Daoliu's gaze, Lu Yuan nodded. This level was something that couldn't be hidden, and there was no need to hide it anyway.
Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue couldn't help but glance at Lu Yuan with a hint of surprise. Although she already knew that Lu Yuan had broken through to the Soul King level, she didn't know that Lu Yuan had actually reached level 57 in just one year.
Is this guy's cultivation speed really that fast?
"Indeed, your talent is truly unparalleled. Even I, at your age, am far inferior to you." Qian Daoliu sighed softly, his tone carrying a hint of satisfaction. Such a prodigy was from their Spirit Hall and was also his grandson-in-law. Qian Daoliu was actually very happy.
"By the way, you came here today because you have something to tell me, right?" Qian Daoliu asked.
"Yes, it is about those Evil Soul Masters!" Then, Lu Yuan told Qian Daoliu the news about the Holy Spirit Cult that he had told Bibi Dong before.
"I see. Don't worry, I will have the worshippers in the Worship Hall fully cooperate with Bibi Dong's actions in this matter. I suppose that's why you came here," Qian Daoliu asked with a smile.
"Yes, the Holy Spirit Cult is a major enemy of our Spirit Hall. Facing such an enemy, we must first unite and prevent any rifts from forming within ourselves. Otherwise, when facing them, we may be unable to exert our full strength due to these rifts, which would be extremely detrimental to the overall situation," Lu Yuan said.
"Hmm, what you said makes sense. Evil Soul Master are the natural enemy of our Spirit Hall. When facing Evil Soul Master, I will make them put aside their discord with the Papal Hall. All actions should be based on what Bibi Dong says. After all, as a Pope, she is indeed very capable and resourceful." Qian Daoliu pondered for a moment before speaking.
Although he still harbored some resentment towards Bibi Dong for killing his son, the interests of the Spirit Hall were paramount. Evil Soul Master and Six-Winged Angel were mortal enemies and had to be eliminated.
In this matter, he was willing to set aside his prejudices and support Bibi Dong.
After all, in Qian Daoliu's eyes, the Spirit Hall was the most important.
