Women Love Bringing Up the Past!

Le Ling looked at him. She truly had not wanted to say anything, because she was sulking and did not want Qian Daoliu to help her.

But avenging her father was extremely important to her. Any romantic feelings could be cast aside!

So she said bluntly, "Spirit Hall has extensive connections and a powerful information network. You have people or branches stationed in nearly every city, town, and village across the continent, so I want to obtain some information through you."

"What information?"

Qian Daoliu frowned, instinctively thinking that she was looking for someone.

But who could make Ling'er willing to become a Maid just to infiltrate Spirit Hall?!

Le Ling hesitated before saying, "The Asura God! My father was killed on the Five Elements Continent, and the only one who can help me avenge him is this Lord Asura God."

The Asura God?

A god?!

Although the Qian Family's ancestor had been the Angel God of a generation, Qian Daoliu still found matters involving gods somewhat unbelievable.

"Can you be sure that Lord Asura God is on the Douluo Continent?" he asked.

Le Ling nodded. "His true body is not here, but his divine consciousness is. My father told me that. In fact, my father's murder was also connected to something the Asura God investigated when he came to the Five Elements Continent years ago!"

"But I do not know exactly what it was, because Father and the Asura God always met alone. I only knew that such a matter existed."

Qian Daoliu thought for a moment before saying, "All right. When we return, I will send people to search for traces of the Asura God, and I will notify everyone stationed at the branches to keep an eye out as well."

"Thank you!"

Le Ling looked at him.

After all, he had agreed to help her. Though she was sulking with him, she should still offer basic courtesy and thank him.

Qian Daoliu reached out and stroked her cheek. "If you truly want to thank me, can you come live at the Worship Hall when we return?"

"No!"

Le Ling pushed away the hand touching her cheek, turned her face aside, and ignored him again.

Qian Daoliu looked at her and sighed inwardly.

His Ling'er was truly hard to coax!

At noon.

The two of them finally flew out of the Star Dou Great Forest and returned to the nearby town.

Outside the hotel entrance.

For the past two days, Steward Yao had waited outside the hotel for about an hour every noon and evening.

If he did not see them, he would return to his hotel room to cultivate alone while waiting.

When he saw the two of them now, he naturally went up to greet them happily. "My lord, Miss Le Ling, why have you returned so quickly?"

Qian Daoliu said indifferently, "We only found two soul rings. We are still short one, so we plan to go to the Sunset Forest. Pack up and check us out. Ling'er and I will go have lunch."

"Yes, my lord."

Steward Yao cupped his hands, then turned and entered the hotel.

Qian Daoliu directly took Le Ling's hand and led her toward a restaurant beside the hotel.

"Can you let me walk by myself?!"

Le Ling looked at the hand he was holding tightly as she protested while walking.

"No!"

Qian Daoliu turned his head toward her. "Wasn't it always like this after we got together?"

Le Ling snapped, "Don't mention the past to me! Were you married in the past? Did you have a son in the past?"

Sure enough, women loved bringing up the past!

Qian Daoliu tightened his grip on her hand and coaxed gently, "Ling'er, those are all things of the past. Stop being angry with me, all right? If you are willing, we can have a wedding and children too."

Le Ling turned her head away, unwilling to pay him any attention, much less respond to him.

The knot in her heart could not be undone at all right now, so there was no way she could forgive him, let alone marry him and have children with him!

After that, the two had lunch at the restaurant.

Steward Yao packed their things, checked them out, and waited at the hotel entrance with the carriage.

After Le Ling and Qian Daoliu boarded, the carriage swiftly left the town and headed toward the Sunset Forest.

After traveling for most of the day, the three finally arrived at a town near the Sunset Forest after nightfall.

The Star Dou Great Forest and the Sunset Forest were both important primordial forests where Soul Masters on the Douluo Continent obtained soul rings.

Thus, there was a town near each forest.

These towns had originally appeared to provide passing Soul Masters with a place to rest and stay. Only later did they gradually develop into the bustling towns where people now lived.

Since it was already late at night, Le Ling and Qian Daoliu could only stay in town for the night and set out for the Sunset Forest tomorrow.

The carriage stopped before the entrance of a nicely furnished hotel.

As soon as it stopped, Qian Daoliu's voice came from inside the carriage.

"Steward Yao, leave the carriage here and go check us in. Ling'er and I will share a room."

"Yes, my lord."

Hearing his master suddenly lower his voice, Steward Yao scratched his head in confusion.

But he did not investigate further. He jumped down, tied the reins, and quickly headed into the hotel lobby.

Since it was late at night, there were not many people checking in.

Very soon, Steward Yao finished checking them in. Holding the keys, he emerged from the lobby and came to the carriage. "My lord, the rooms have been arranged."

Qian Daoliu hummed in acknowledgment, then carried the deeply sleeping Le Ling out of the carriage.

Seeing the woman sleeping sweetly in his master's arms, Steward Yao finally understood why his lord had spoken so softly earlier.

So Miss Le Ling was asleep!

This was the first time Steward Yao had seen his master look so gentle that tenderness seemed ready to drip from him!

Qian Daoliu carried Le Ling into the hotel and quickly headed upstairs toward their room.

Steward Yao followed behind.

When they reached the room, he immediately opened the door for his master.

Qian Daoliu carried Le Ling inside and gently laid her on the large bed.

Then he said to the steward, "Tomorrow, stay at the hotel and wait. We will return to Spirit City after we come back from the Sunset Forest."

"Also, you do not need to investigate why Ling'er came to take part in the Maid recruitment anymore. I already know. But after we return, investigate something else. Have people look into matters concerning the Asura God on our continent."

Steward Yao was stunned for a moment when he heard his master's words.

After recovering, he asked incredulously, "My lord, do you mean the Asura God... that god?"

"Yes."

Qian Daoliu nodded. "Besides sending people to search, notify the bishops of all Spirit Hall branches as well. Legends or anything else, as long as there is any information containing the words 'Asura God,' report it immediately!"

"Yes, my lord. This subordinate understands."

Steward Yao cupped his hands and turned to leave the room.

Qian Daoliu tucked Le Ling in, lowered his head to kiss her forehead, then turned and entered the bathroom to bathe.

He took a cold shower for an hour before coming out.

Earlier in the carriage, Le Ling had kept clinging to him in her sleep, as though she had been dreaming of something.

She had nearly made him lose control!

After coming out of the bathroom, Qian Daoliu immediately lay down on the bed and drew his Ling'er into his arms.

This time, whether Le Ling invited him in her dreams or not, he would hold her as they slept!
