Recommending "Legend of the White Snake"; Chen Xun Snatches Red Packets in the Chat Group!

A Level 99 Peerless Douluo was already a peak powerhouse standing at the summit of the continent.

And someone whom a Peerless Douluo respectfully addressed as a senior...

Just what realm had his strength reached?

Could he...

Be a god?

The thought had barely surfaced before Qian Renxue dismissed it herself.

She had once heard her grandfather, Qian Daoliu, say:

Gods could not remain in the mortal world.

But then how could the owner before her be explained?

Qian Renxue only felt that her thoughts were in disarray, impossible to sort out.

At first, she had assumed the owner was merely a reclusive Titled Douluo.

But now, it seemed that what she knew was still far from enough.

"Owner, it is getting late today, so Chen will not disturb you any longer."

Chen Xun rose to his feet and cupped his hands toward Chen Luo in salute.

Then he turned and pushed the door open to leave.

"Does Your Highness the Crown Prince need anything else?"

"If not, this shop is about to close."

Chen Luo looked at Xue Qinghe, who was still standing there in a daze, and slowly spoke.

Hearing his voice, Xue Qinghe finally came back to her senses. She coughed lightly to hide her embarrassment and said:

"I have finished reading The Return of the Condor Heroes. Might the owner recommend a few more fine works for me to cultivate my temperament during my leisure time?"

Qian Renxue had already made up her mind to take this opportunity to grow closer to this mysterious owner.

His identity was a mystery, and he even had dealings with Sword Master Chen Xun, who had defeated her grandfather.

That alone was enough to make her take him seriously.

She could also take the chance to learn more about Chen Xun.

She did not believe Chen Xun was the kind of person who would deliberately defeat someone weaker than himself merely to make a name for himself.

Chen Luo, however, gave her an exceedingly strange look.

Cultivate her temperament during her leisure time?

Just looking at the faint darkness beneath her eyes, he could tell she had spent plenty of nights staying up to binge-read. What leisure time was she talking about?

"Sure."

"Do you have any preferences when it comes to genres?"

Chen Luo asked as usual.

Xue Qinghe rested a fingertip against her chin, pondering for a moment before slowly speaking.

"As long as it does not have any... outrageous plotlines like certain ones in The Return of the Condor Heroes, I have no other requirements."

Chen Luo nodded and said:

"Alright, I'll go get a book."

With that, he turned toward the bookshelf, took down a book from the highest shelf, then returned and handed it to Xue Qinghe.

Xue Qinghe accepted the book and lowered her head to read its title aloud.

"Legend of the White Snake?"

"White Snake... what kind of story is this?"

"Could it be a novel about soul beasts?"

At that thought, Xue Qinghe could not help feeling puzzled.

What was there to write about soul beasts?

Was the owner in such a hurry to close that he had casually grabbed a book to fob her off?

Chen Luo stretched and yawned as he spoke.

"You'll know once you go back and read it."

"It's late. Let's leave it at that for today. Take care."

With that, he made as if to close the shop door.

Just then, Xue Qinghe hurriedly called out:

"Wait, Owner!"

Chen Luo paused and turned back to ask:

"Something else?"

Xue Qinghe looked somewhat embarrassed as she said softly:

"When I bought books last time... didn't you include a drink called cola?"

"Why is there... none this time?"

To be honest, ever since tasting cola last time, she had not been able to forget it. Even when she felt tired from handling official duties, she could not help wanting to gulp down a few mouthfuls.

Just thinking of that icy, stimulating taste made her feel relaxed and refreshed.

"Cola?"

Chen Luo repeated with a hint of amusement.

Sure enough, even people in this world could not resist the charm of cola.

He turned around, took two bottles of cola from the counter, and casually handed them to Xue Qinghe.

"The extra bottle is on the house. This shop is closed."

The moment he finished speaking,

Chen Luo shut the door without the slightest hesitation, closing it with a bang.

The entire process was crisp and decisive, taking no more than two or three seconds.

Looking at the tightly shut shop door, Xue Qinghe murmured softly:

"This owner... really did not open this shop simply to do business."

But on second thought,

Why would such a powerful person truly care about mundane gold and silver?

Snake Lance Douluo moved slightly closer, his tone somewhat grave.

"Young Mistress, should we report today's matter back to the hall?"

Xue Qinghe pondered briefly, then shook her head and explained:

"Not for now."

"We still do not understand this owner's intentions."

"Besides, Chen Xun did not kill Grandfather after defeating him. That shows that he, and perhaps even this bookstore, may not be hostile toward our Spirit Hall."

"If we rashly bring the news back to the hall and cause unnecessary panic, the loss would outweigh the gain."

"Yes, Young Mistress."

Snake Lance Douluo replied respectfully.

Before leaving, Xue Qinghe took one last deep look at the plaque above the bookstore and murmured:

"No Taboos, No Taboos..."

Over the following period of time,

Chen Xun came to the bookstore punctually almost every morning to seek Chen Luo's guidance on the path of cultivation.

Dugu Bo also used the Myriad Laws Mirror to directly teleport the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum to Chen Xun, leaving him unable to contain his excitement.

Using the five million Contribution Points he had earned from defeating Qian Daoliu, Chen Xun exchanged them for an introductory sword manual from a cultivation world and purchased several pills to assist his cultivation.

These cultivation methods and pills might have been only the most basic things in their original world, but once placed in Douluo Continent, every one of them was a treasure that began at god-tier.

With the guidance of the cultivation method, the assistance of the pills, and the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum's complete transformation of his aptitude and talent,

Although only a few short days had passed,

Chen Xun's Soul Power and swordsmanship cultivation both advanced by leaps and bounds!

At this rate,

Breaking through to god-tier would only be a matter of time for him.

Chen Xun had truly tasted the sweetness of cheat-like cultivation.

The Myriad Laws Mirror contained a world of its own and possessed numerous functions, including a chat group, the Myriad Worlds Mall, and a task forum. It was practically a complete miniature system.

Compared to Chen Xun, however,

Dugu Bo's breakthrough was even more absurd.

With an eight-figure amount of Contribution Points in hand, he had practically bought every kind of treasure in the mall.

Immortal cultivation poison arts, breakthrough pills, and even Magic Treasures—all of them had been added to his collection.

In only a few days,

His Soul Power had soared all the way from Level 92 to Level 95, directly sparing him decades of arduous cultivation.

If one also counted the boost to his combat ability from his Magic Treasures, the current Dugu Bo was likely capable of fighting a Level 96, or even a Level 97, Titled Douluo.

This was what they called a pay-to-win player!
