Training Beyond Home

After Qian Daoliu left, Ye Xi turned her gaze to Tian Yao.

"Sister Tian Yao, go back and pack your things first."

"Once you're done, Ling Yuan Elder and I will wait for you at the entrance to Papal Hall."

"Ling Yuan Elder, let's head to Papal Hall first."

With that, Ye Xi brought Ling Yuan Elder to Papal Hall, while Tian Yao returned to her residence to pack.

Walking along the small road paved with blue stone, Ye Xi and Ling Yuan did not head to Papal Hall's main hall, but instead went to its rear hall.

Papal Hall's main hall was generally used for discussing matters, while the rear hall was where Pope Bibi Dong handled government affairs.

When they arrived outside the room where Bibi Dong handled government affairs, Ye Xi raised her hand and knocked on the door.

"Your Majesty Pope."

Ye Xi called into the room in an even tone.

"Come in."

Bibi Dong's voice came from within the room.

Ye Xi pushed open the door and saw Bibi Dong lowering her head as she dealt with the government affairs before her.

"Second Young Lady, what brings you to Papal Hall today?"

Bibi Dong asked while continuing to handle the documents before her.

"Your Majesty Pope, I've come to ask you for someone."

"This is the Angel Token."

Ye Xi took out the Angel Token and waved it in her hand.

"Mm."

"Who does Second Young Lady want?"

Bibi Dong glanced at the Angel Token in Ye Xi's hand without saying much else.

"Yang Wushuang."

Ye Xi answered decisively.

"Mm, Second Young Lady can go find him directly."

Bibi Dong waved her hand dismissively.

"Alright, then I'll be going."

Ye Xi agreed and walked straight out of the room to find Yang Wushuang.

After Ye Xi left, Bibi Dong gradually raised her head and quietly watched her departing figure.

Yet she said nothing. Once Ye Xi disappeared from sight, Bibi Dong continued handling the government affairs before her.

After finding Yang Wushuang in Papal Hall, Ye Xi explained the matter to him.

"Second Young Lady, what do you need me to do?"

Yang Wushuang bowed to Ye Xi and looked at her with some confusion.

He did not understand why, in the vast Spirit Hall, where there were countless people stronger than him, Second Young Lady had specifically asked for him to accompany her.

"Prepare a carriage."

"The carriage must not bear any Spirit Hall markings."

Ye Xi looked at Yang Wushuang with a very serious expression.

"Yes, Second Young Lady."

Yang Wushuang agreed and went off to make the arrangements.

Meanwhile, Ye Xi and Ling Yuan sat outside Papal Hall and waited quietly.

Before long, Yang Wushuang had prepared the carriage, and Tian Yao arrived as well.

Ye Xi, Tian Yao, and Ling Yuan entered the carriage cabin.

Yang Wushuang looked at himself, then at the front of the carriage.

Am I, a dignified Soul Douluo, really going to be a coachman?

After thinking it over, Yang Wushuang could not help looking toward the three women in the carriage cabin.

Ye Xi was the First Offering's granddaughter and the Second Young Lady of Worship Hall.

Tian Yao was the Second Worship's granddaughter, and her status was higher than his.

Ling Yuan was an elder of the Hall of Elders. Not only was her status higher than his, she was also a Titled Douluo.

"Second Young Lady, where are we going?"

Yang Wushuang sat at the front of the carriage and took on the role of coachman.

"We're heading to the capital of the Heaven Dou Empire: Heaven Dou City."

Ye Xi's voice came from inside the carriage cabin.

"Yes, Second Young Lady."

Yang Wushuang answered and drove the carriage onward.

Inside the carriage cabin, Ye Xi, Tian Yao, and Ling Yuan sat on comfortable cushions, watching the scenery outside.

"Ling Yuan Elder, if you fought the Poison Douluo, could you beat him?"

Ye Xi looked at Ling Yuan before her and asked curiously.

"The Poison Douluo, Dugu Bo?"

"Beating Dugu Bo wouldn't be a problem, but if he was determined to flee, I wouldn't be able to stop him."

After giving it some brief thought, Ling Yuan answered with great confidence.

If it were another Titled Douluo, Ling Yuan truly would not dare guarantee victory. After all, her Soul Power was only at rank ninety-two, and her strength was not particularly outstanding among Titled Douluos.

But if it was Dugu Bo, she was absolutely certain she could defeat him.

Although Ling Yuan was not particularly outstanding among Titled Douluos, the Poison Douluo Dugu Bo was essentially at the bottom among them.

"It's good as long as you can beat him."

Ye Xi tapped her fingers against the carriage wall one after another, a trace of contemplation appearing in her Sapphire Blue eyes.

"Second Young Lady, why did you suddenly ask that?"

"Did Dugu Bo offend Second Young Lady before?"

Seeing Ye Xi's thoughtful expression, Ling Yuan asked softly.

"No."

"I was just curious, so I asked."

Ye Xi revealed a faint smile. A sharp glint flashed through her Sapphire Blue eyes, and a beautiful curve rose at the corner of her lips.

Hearing this, Ling Yuan nodded lightly and did not ask any further questions.

Tian Yao took out a box of exquisitely shaped pastries from her Storage Ring and placed it before Ye Xi.

"Second Young Lady, these pastries taste quite good. Would you like to try some?"

Tian Yao looked at Ye Xi, a smile always present on her delicate face.

"Alright, I'll try one."

Ye Xi picked up a pastry and put it into her mouth for a taste. Her eyes immediately lit up.

"Mm, these pastries really are good."

Ye Xi nodded lightly as she looked at the pastries.

"Anything memorable to me usually tastes very good."

"Ling Yuan Elder, would you like some too?"

Tian Yao smiled faintly and offered the pastries in her hand to Ling Yuan.

"Miss Tian Yao, there's no need."

"You and Second Young Lady can eat them."

Ling Yuan lightly waved her hand, politely declining.

"Alright, then."

"Second Young Lady, you can have this box. I still have more."

After giving all the pastries in her hand to Ye Xi, Tian Yao took another box out of her Storage Ring.

She had a large appetite, so she usually carried many things like pastries in her Storage Ring. Moreover, time stood still inside the Storage Ring, so there was no need to worry about them spoiling.

"Thank you, Sister Tian Yao."

Ye Xi accepted the pastries, thanked her, and began savoring them at an unhurried pace.

Outside the carriage, Yang Wushuang, who was driving, felt as though they had forgotten he even existed.

However, Yang Wushuang said nothing. He simply drove the carriage in silence toward Heaven Dou City.

Heaven Dou City.

The imperial palace, Crown Prince Residence.

Qian Renxue, disguised as Xue Qinghe, was silently reading the intelligence before her.

Behind her stood She Long and Ci Xue.

"Young Master, the situation seems a little complicated now."

She Long spoke thoughtfully.

"It's fine. It's not a major problem."

"Don't make any moves for the time being. Just wait and see."

Qian Renxue set down the intelligence in her hand and gazed through the window toward Prince Xue Xing's Mansion.
