When You Can't Afford to Offend Them, You Surrender

At the same time.

Qian Tianxun went straight to Chrysanthemum Douluo, who was watching the dog by the entrance.

The moment he saw Chrysanthemum Douluo, Qian Tianxun was anxious, but he still respectfully bowed to him.

"Greetings, Lord Chrysanthemum Douluo."

Seeing him emerge, Chrysanthemum Douluo first silently glanced at the White Dog by his feet.

Only after confirming that the White Dog had made no move did he look back at Qian Tianxun and clear his throat twice.

"Mm, Tianxun, I thought you had gone to cultivate. What do you need from me?"

Qian Tianxun naturally noticed Chrysanthemum Douluo's little movements.

However, he did not think much of them. He simply nodded and answered directly.

"I was indeed feeling things out at first. The Saintess came over, and after cultivating for a while, I came out."

Having said that, Qian Tianxun quickly stated the reason he had come and asked,

"Lord Chrysanthemum Douluo, do you know those two little children?"

The moment those words came out!

Chrysanthemum Douluo immediately felt a gaze lock onto him. With a shudder, he instantly grabbed Qian Tianxun by the shoulder and cautiously asked,

"Hiss... nothing happened to them, right?"

Chrysanthemum Douluo was truly scared stiff!

Damn it!

If anything had happened to those two little ancestors—

Then it would no longer be just his own problem.

This entire Spirit Hall probably would not be enough to pay the price.

Chrysanthemum Douluo also knew exactly what Spirit Hall was like. When it came to geniuses, if they could not obtain them, their attitude was to destroy them outright.

Qian Tianxun did not notice Chrysanthemum Douluo's oddness. His eyes merely lit up as he looked at Chrysanthemum Douluo with a solemn expression.

"Mm, Lord Chrysanthemum Douluo, you also know how important those two children are?"

Chrysanthemum Douluo waved a hand and looked at Qian Tianxun seriously. "Tell me first, are they all right?!"

Qian Tianxun smiled and shook his head before answering.

"They're fine. I had the Saintess accompany them. I can't make the decision on this matter."

After confirming that nothing had happened to those two little ancestors, Chrysanthemum Douluo felt the gaze behind him vanish at once. Only then did he heave a sigh of relief and ask,

"What matter?"

Qian Tianxun was clearly somewhat baffled by Chrysanthemum Douluo's exaggerated reaction.

However, his attention was already fixed on the two adorable children, Lin Ning and Lin An, so he directly voiced his thoughts.

"I want to keep them here and have them join Spirit Hall!"

Qian Tianxun: "???"

After a moment of silence, Chrysanthemum Douluo looked at Qian Tianxun speechlessly and asked,

"You haven't heard why those two children came to Spirit Hall?"

Qian Tianxun nodded. "Mm, wasn't it to find their Mother? I heard their Mother is a member of Spirit Hall."

"Emmm..."

Upon hearing Qian Tianxun's words, Chrysanthemum Douluo immediately understood.

This guy had no idea that the children's Mother had been taken away by Spirit Hall.

No wonder he had wanted to recruit them.

Chrysanthemum Douluo helplessly rubbed his brow and asked,

"Why do you want to recruit them?"

Qian Tianxun was stunned by the question, then recounted everything he had seen.

By the time Qian Tianxun finished, even Chrysanthemum Douluo was frightened. He stared at Qian Tianxun in disbelief and cried out,

"Wait! You're saying that all of their first four Soul Rings were black?! They were all Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Rings?"

Seeing that even Chrysanthemum Douluo was so shocked, Qian Tianxun felt a little comforted.

Look!

Even a Titled Douluo was left completely stunned!

While comforting himself, Qian Tianxun immediately added,

"Yes! And he said the adults in their family had said that absorbing Soul Rings was only related to a Soul Master's physique. There was no limit on their age."

It had to be said that once this news came out—

Even Chrysanthemum Douluo, a Titled Douluo, was dumbfounded.

After all...

What Qian Tianxun, a Soul Saint, could see, Chrysanthemum Douluo, a Titled Douluo, could see as well.

They were all Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Rings!!

What did that represent?

It represented a generation of young talents separated by an overwhelming gap!

Now that this theory had just emerged, there might not yet be much difference.

But!

Once ten years had passed and the younger generation who could apply this theory emerged—

They would basically be overwhelmingly powerful!

It was simple!

A Soul Master with yellow, yellow, purple, and black Soul Rings was fundamentally incapable of defeating a Soul Master with four black Soul Rings.

Not to mention that high-age Soul Rings also provided considerable enhancement to one's Martial Soul.

And!

The further one progressed, the wider that gap would only become.

At the Titled Douluo level, unless the opponent possessed extraordinary talent and an exceptionally powerful Martial Soul, there would be no chance of victory at all.

Once this theory emerged—

The gap it created would drive countless factions into complete despair.

Now, all they needed to do was learn how to implement this theory, and they could gain the upper hand first!

No wonder Qian Tianxun had been so eager to recruit those two little ancestors.

At the same time!

After learning this news, Chrysanthemum Douluo finally completely yielded before the faction behind Lin Ning and Lin An.

He could not even muster the slightest thought of escaping anymore.

It was simple!

Since this theory could create a generation with such an overwhelming advantage—

Then...

Who could say how long this unknown faction had possessed this theory?

Ten years!

Twenty years!

Or perhaps even a hundred years!

Looking at it that way, it was no longer strange for a White Dog comparable to a Peerless Douluo to serve as the two children's nanny.

While Chrysanthemum Douluo wildly filled in the blanks, every bit of it fell into Little White's eyes.

For this fellow's perfect assumptions, Little White silently gave him a thumbs-up in his heart.

Really!

Even boasting had limits.

What a joke. With human physical constitutions, the current theory was basically already the limit for most humans.

For the two little ancestors to absorb Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Rings so easily—

That had been achieved only after their master spent ten years nourishing them without interruption, every single day.

Just like how Lin Ning and Lin An could eat that Soul Power Cuisine without any pressure, it was the same principle.

If ordinary people forcibly absorbed thousand-year, or even Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Rings—

Wouldn't they simply be courting death?

However, Little White was happy to see Chrysanthemum Douluo become wary like this.

After finishing his mental deductions, Chrysanthemum Douluo immediately adjusted his attitude and asked,

"Huff, have you reported this matter?"

Qian Tianxun shook his head. "Not yet. This matter exceeds my authority, so I came to ask Lord Chrysanthemum Douluo."

After confirming that Qian Tianxun had not yet reported it, Chrysanthemum Douluo pondered for a moment before saying, "You don't need to concern yourself with this matter for now. I'll handle it. As for the two children, leave them for the Saintess to arrange. No one else can interfere."

Having received Chrysanthemum Douluo's answer, Qian Tianxun did not think further and gave him a slight bow.

"All right, then I'll trouble you, Lord Chrysanthemum Douluo."

After saying that, Qian Tianxun called out once and hurried back.

After watching Qian Tianxun leave, Chrysanthemum Douluo silently crouched down.

"Your Excellency, are you still accepting Titled Douluo?"

Little White: ???
