"..."
A month after Qian Daoliu and Qian Renxue's agreement, within Douluo Hall, Qian Renxue was repeatedly casting her First Spirit Skill.
Each time she cast it, the method varied slightly. It was clearly just one spirit skill, yet in Qian Renxue's hands, it seemed like several different skills.
"Father!"
Watching Qian Renxue's spirit skill, Qian Xunji, who was observing alongside him, called out to Qian Daoliu in shock.
Looking at Qian Daoliu, Qian Xunji said incredulously, "Father, you really didn't teach her this?"
Qian Xunji simply could not imagine that Qian Renxue had mastered so many variations of her First Spirit Skill in merely a month without anyone teaching her.
No—even with someone teaching her, it should have been impossible to achieve this in such a short time!
"I didn't teach her."
Qian Daoliu likewise watched Qian Renxue in the arena with astonishment, his eyes filled with shock.
"I never expected Xiao Xue's talent to be so high. Xiao Xue will surely become the hope of our Angel Clan!"
Beyond his shock, Qian Daoliu was naturally even more delighted.
The stronger Qian Renxue proved herself to be, the happier he became.
It proved that Qian Renxue's talent was extraordinary. The hope the Angel Clan had held for so many years might finally be realized.
That was for another god to appear within the Angel Clan, one capable of inheriting their ancestor's divine position.
"Xiao Xue is so incredible. She'll definitely be able to do it!"
Qian Xunji naturally understood what his father meant, and he smiled as he affirmed it.
"Dad, Grandpa!"
"How was that? I did pretty well, right?"
At that moment, Qian Renxue stopped as well. Turning around, she raised her little face proudly at Qian Xunji and Qian Daoliu, beaming with delight.
"Very well. Even Dad never expected Xiao Xue to be this amazing. You're far stronger than I was!"
Qian Xunji was the first to praise his precious daughter.
"Not bad. But you can't become arrogant. You must continue working hard in the future."
Qian Daoliu was somewhat more stern. Though he praised Qian Renxue, he did not forget to caution her.
"Yes, Grandpa!"
Even so, Qian Renxue was immensely happy.
Her grandfather rarely praised her!
This made Qian Renxue once again feel just how correct her earlier decision to seek out Mu Ge had been.
If not for Mu Ge's guidance, she would definitely have disappointed her grandfather and father this time.
After that, whenever Qian Renxue encountered something she did not understand, she would go ask Mu Ge.
In the library, the two of them were no longer each absorbed in their own studies, leaving the other undisturbed.
Mu Ge never grew impatient when faced with Qian Renxue's questions. Every time, he gave her detailed guidance.
At first, Qian Renxue only sought Mu Ge out when she encountered knowledge points she did not understand.
But gradually, Qian Renxue discovered that through Mu Ge's explanations and guidance, she could grasp that knowledge about martial souls far more clearly. His explanations were even more thorough than her grandfather's.
Thus, later on, whenever Qian Renxue encountered new knowledge, she would almost always consult Mu Ge.
Qian Daoliu, who was responsible for teaching Qian Renxue, gradually realized that Qian Renxue could master that martial soul knowledge through her own study alone. There was almost nothing left for him to teach her.
In fact, many of Qian Renxue's answers left even him impressed.
Qian Daoliu was naturally pleased that Qian Renxue was so intelligent, but he also lost the joy of teaching his granddaughter. It was as if she no longer needed him.
At first, Qian Daoliu did not suspect anything, but gradually, he sensed that something was off.
No matter how intelligent Qian Renxue was, there were many points of martial soul knowledge that she should not have been able to learn merely from the books in the library.
Especially since some of that knowledge was not even fully recorded in the library.
Thus, doubts arose in Qian Daoliu's heart, and he wanted to see how Qian Renxue studied in the library.
Then, naturally, the fact that Mu Ge had been guiding Qian Renxue was exposed.
"Xunji, who is that person in the library?"
After discovering Mu Ge's existence, Qian Daoliu did not immediately reveal himself. Instead, he went to find Qian Xunji and asked about Mu Ge's background.
Anyone able to enter the library's restricted section was someone Qian Xunji definitely knew.
"Father, the person you mentioned is called Hu Ge. Bibi Dong brought him back from Slaughter City!"
The moment Qian Xunji heard Qian Daoliu's description, he knew who he meant. Although he had only met Mu Ge once, he would never forget him.
Anyone who had fought their way out of Slaughter City like Bibi Dong was impossible to forget.
"Oh? He came out of Slaughter City?"
Qian Daoliu could not help but be surprised upon hearing that.
Seeing his father's curiosity, Qian Xunji did not delay and quickly told him everything he knew about Mu Ge.
He did not know much—only what Bibi Dong had told him before, along with Mu Ge's own introduction.
"To emerge from Slaughter City at only twenty years old—impressive!"
"Being a Sea Soul Master is nothing. As long as he is willing to join Spirit Hall, then he is a Spirit Hall Soul Master!"
"More importantly, he is highly intelligent. His understanding of much Soul Martial knowledge is even better than this old man's!"
After listening to Qian Xunji, Qian Daoliu sighed in admiration.
"You probably don't know this, but Xiao Xue has grown so quickly because of his guidance!"
"Ever since Xiao Xue began studying in the library, she had been able to grasp that Soul Martial knowledge. At first, I thought Xiao Xue had learned it herself because she was clever, but later I discovered that this person had been teaching her in the library!"
Seeing the confusion in his son's eyes, Qian Daoliu explained.
"What? Xiao Xue was taught by him? Did he deliberately approach Xiao Xue?"
Qian Xunji was startled, then could not help but suspect Mu Ge's motives.
"That should be impossible. Very few people in Spirit Hall even know of Xiao Xue's existence, unless Bibi Dong told him!"
"If Bibi Dong told him, then Bibi Dong must have asked him to teach Xiao Xue!"
"It seems Bibi Dong is truly beginning to accept Xiao Xue's existence!"
Qian Daoliu first shook his head, then calmly analyzed the matter.
By the end, Qian Daoliu could not help but smile.
After Bibi Dong returned from Slaughter City, she had already begun accepting Qian Renxue in front of him. At the time, he had still harbored some doubts, but now it seemed that Bibi Dong truly had accepted Qian Renxue's existence.
Qian Daoliu was naturally very pleased by this change.
"Then, Father, are you planning to let him continue teaching Xiao Xue?"
Hearing his father's words, Qian Xunji realized he had been overthinking things.
