In Douluo, All the Goddesses Fell Apart

After entering, Su Ruoxi devoted herself entirely to her man, carefully and earnestly picking things out for him. From time to time, she even asked Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling for their opinions, letting Wu Xing experience what it felt like to be surrounded by beauties.

Wu Xing was already extremely handsome, with a standard height of 1.8 meters. He was like a living clothes rack—no matter what he wore, he could carry it effortlessly and display that captivating aura, leaving Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling staring straight at him.

Handsome, refined, and, most importantly, powerful—his appeal was undoubtedly lethal to girls at their age.

Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling were already like this, so there was no need to mention Su Ruoxi. Her eyes brimmed with affection. If not for the public setting, she probably would have long since been unable to resist pouncing on him for a kiss.

After leaving the menswear store, the group continued down the street and soon entered another shop.

This time, however, it was a women's clothing store. Wu Xing began evaluating outfits for his own woman, and whether intentionally or not, after Su Ruoxi bought several sets of clothes, Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling also made him their audience.

"Wu Xing, if you're interested in Sister Yanyan and Sister Ling Ling, I won't object." Just as Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling entered the fitting room, Su Ruoxi suddenly leaned close to Wu Xing's ear and whispered.

Wu Xing shuddered at her words, then looked at Su Ruoxi in disbelief. He had never expected his woman, who had only confirmed their relationship with him two days ago, to tell him to find other women.

There was actually such a good thing in this world?

Seeing Wu Xing's incredulous gaze, Su Ruoxi lowered her head with a faint blush and explained, "I think Sister Yanyan and Sister Ling Ling are both very good to you."

"That's because I'm the Diary Owner. They know I possess enormous opportunities, so naturally they want to befriend me." Wu Xing smiled helplessly after hearing her explanation.

In truth, Su Ruoxi had not said that solely because of this. Over the past two days, she had realized that her man was a soaring dragon. There would surely be no shortage of beauties throwing themselves into his arms in the future, and she would not be his only woman.

Even without Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling, she would not be able to keep him to herself. Rather than that, it would be better for the two women to become sisters with her. At least they knew each other well.

Moreover, Douluo Continent was full of nobles and had no concept of monogamy, which was why she had said it.

Besides, she had discovered that her man's physical stamina in that regard far exceeded hers. As his Soul Power Level rose, the difference would likely become even more obvious. She was already having trouble keeping up—what would she do in the future?

"I know, but I think Sister Yanyan and Sister Ling Ling are both quite good. It wouldn't matter if you took them in too," Su Ruoxi answered softly.

Wu Xing nearly cried from how moved he was. He then said, "Ruo Xi, I understand what you mean. Although I admit that I'm a playboy, there are so many women in the Diary Instance. Am I supposed to take them all in whenever I meet them?"

"I... I don't mind." Su Ruoxi's words were astonishing.

Wu Xing opened his mouth but was unable to say anything for a long time. This girl probably had no idea what she was saying.

If he really took them all in, could he even handle it? One a day, cycling through them all, would probably take years. Wouldn't that cost him his life?

"Enough. Don't play matchmaker at random. Let things take their course. If I truly fall for some beauty, I'll tell you." Wu Xing waved his hand. With such a considerate woman, he did not want to hurt her.

But taking them all in was impossible. He could not even entertain that thought.

If the Diary Instance holders were only beauties from Douluo World, that would be one thing. He could fantasize as much as he wanted. But with the Anime Multiverse involved, he had better forget it.

While the two were talking, the fitting room door opened, and Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling walked out. They had already changed back into their original outfits.

Seeing Su Ruoxi's strange expression, Dugu Yan could not help asking, "Sister Ruo Xi, what's wrong? Why is your face so red?"

"N-Nothing." Su Ruoxi hurriedly shook her head. She did not dare reveal what she and Wu Xing had just discussed.

"Oh." Dugu Yan did not think much of it. She then instructed the sales clerk to pack up the clothes she had bought before storing them in her Soul Tool.

Perhaps because of that little episode, Su Ruoxi became even more intimate with the two girls afterward, leaving Wu Xing feeling both pained and delighted.

This girl had truly made up her mind to find sisters for him...

Dugu Bo

Before they knew it, the group had shopped until the sun set.

Wu Xing could not help sighing. Whether women from his previous life or women from Douluo Continent, they all seemed to have a special fondness for this sort of thing.

However, he did not find it boring at all. On the contrary, he still wanted more, purely because he had feasted his eyes.

He had to admire the greatness of Chinese animation. Whether ancient settings or fantasy worlds, it had pioneered the combination of stockings and high heels.

Otherwise, he would never have experienced three women standing before him, wearing stockings of every color and style while swaying their alluring long legs, leaving his eyes unable to take it all in. They nearly seemed glued to them.

After leaving the commercial district and seeing that the sky had already darkened, Dugu Yan invited them, "Wu Xing, Sister Ruo Xi, why don't you skip the hotel tonight and stay at my home with Ling Ling?"

Before Wu Xing could speak, Su Ruoxi readily answered, "Sure! Then we'll have to trouble you, Sister Yanyan."

Friendship between women was just that magical. After merely spending one day shopping together, their relationship had already risen to the level of close friends.

Although Su Ruoxi had intentionally guided things that way, it was still remarkably fast.

Since his girlfriend had agreed, Wu Xing naturally had no objections. Dugu Yan's grandfather was an imperial guest of the Heaven Dou Empire and possessed an estate granted by Xue Ye. Staying anywhere was the same.

Seeing them agree, Dugu Yan was delighted. This meant their friendship had taken another step forward.

Led by Dugu Yan, the group soon arrived before a massive estate.

Looking at the majestic building before him, Wu Xing sighed inwardly again. As expected of a noble estate—it truly was imposing.

After entering the estate, two maids approached them. Dugu Yan immediately asked, "Xiao Lin, where is my grandfather?"

"Reporting to Young Miss, the master left at noon and has not returned yet," the maid answered respectfully.

"Grandpa, honestly. It's already dark, and he still isn't back." Dugu Yan pouted. She had invited Wu Xing to visit partly to build a better relationship with him and partly to introduce him to her grandfather. She had not expected her grandfather to be absent.

"Haha, I heard someone talking about me as soon as I entered. So my precious granddaughter is back."

Just as Dugu Yan finished speaking, a hearty laugh came from behind them.

"Grandpa!" Dugu Yan happily turned around upon hearing it.

Wu Xing and the others also turned around. However, when he followed the voice with his gaze, his eyes narrowed slightly.

That was because Dugu Bo was carrying someone in his hand, and that person was none other than Tang San.

Dugu Yan also saw Tang San in her grandfather's grasp. After a brief pause, she asked, "Grandpa, why did you capture this guy?"

Dugu Bo did not answer his granddaughter. At that moment, his eyes were fixed intently on Wu Xing, and his sharp gaze bore directly into him.

Feeling Dugu Bo's imposing stare, Wu Xing stepped forward a few paces and raised his hand slightly. "This junior, Wu Xing, greets Elder Dugu."

Dugu Bo still said nothing. His sharp eyes remained fixed on Wu Xing, as if he were pondering something.

When Dugu Yan noticed that something was off with her grandfather, she was startled and hurriedly stepped forward to hold his arm. "Grandpa, don't be like this."

Only after being shaken by his granddaughter did Dugu Bo retract his narrowed gaze. He turned and stroked Dugu Yan's head, smiling as he asked, "Yanyan, won't you introduce them to Grandpa?"

Seeing that her grandfather had finally stopped releasing that frightening pressure, Dugu Yan immediately pulled him before Wu Xing and introduced him happily. "Grandpa, this is Wu Xing, my good friend and a specially recruited student at our academy. He's incredible—he beat me when he was only a level 31 Soul Fighting Master."

"This is Su Ruoxi. She's also a student at our academy and one of my closest sisters."

After finishing her sweet introduction, Dugu Yan looked toward Wu Xing and said with a giggle, "Wu Xing, this is my grandfather. You already said it earlier, so I don't need to introduce him, right?"

"Greetings, Elder Dugu." Wu Xing raised his hand again.

"Mm." Dugu Bo finally responded, though he still did not give Wu Xing a pleasant look.

It was the first time he had seen his precious granddaughter bring a boy her own age home. For a moment, he felt as though the cabbage he had painstakingly raised had been rooted up by a pig.

But even if that had not happened yet, it was not far off. His usually proud granddaughter's heartfelt joy when she spoke of the young man before him could not be faked. Especially when she praised him despite losing to him, his heart inexplicably ached.

Based on his granddaughter's usual personality, if she lost a Soul Fighting Master battle to someone, she would never act like this. She would be unwilling to accept it and want to win back her dignity.

Yet now, this boy could make his precious granddaughter change so much. Could he possibly believe that there was nothing between them?

"Grandpa, Wu Xing is a good friend I invited here. If you keep acting like this, I... I'll never speak to you again." Seeing her grandfather's stern expression, Dugu Yan stamped her foot in anger.

She had no idea that her grandfather had misunderstood their relationship. Her threat only made Dugu Bo feel like coughing up blood.

The granddaughter he had painstakingly raised was now threatening her grandfather for an outsider. It truly proved that old saying: once a girl had a boyfriend, she forgot all about her grandfather.

"Grandpa Dugu." While Dugu Bo was heartbroken and beating his chest in anguish, Ye Lingling sweetly called out to him.

When Dugu Bo saw Ye Lingling, his face immediately revealed a kindly smile entirely different from the one he showed Wu Xing. "Ling Ling, you came home with Yanyan?"

"Yes, Grandpa Dugu." Ye Lingling answered sweetly before adding, "Grandpa Dugu, Ling Ling came with Wu Xing too."

She roughly understood why Elder Dugu had not given Wu Xing a pleasant look, so she proactively stepped forward to ease the situation.

"Hm?!" Dugu Bo was startled inwardly. He was very familiar with Ye Lingling. She was his precious granddaughter's close friend and frequently visited the estate.

He also understood her personality very well. Unlike his straightforward granddaughter, Ye Lingling was elegant and quiet. Yet she had actually taken the initiative to speak up. Could this boy be truly extraordinary?

Secretly surprised, Dugu Bo decided to ask about it privately later. For now, he should not make his precious granddaughter angry.

With that thought, Dugu Bo immediately changed his expression as if he had put on another face. He smiled and coaxed, "Yanyan, Grandpa was wrong. Grandpa was wrong."

"Hmph!" Dugu Yan proudly raised her chin before adding, "Wu Xing is here as my guest. You can't keep making that face."

"Alright, alright. Grandpa will listen to you. Grandpa will listen to everything you say." Dugu Bo agreed repeatedly.

Only then did Dugu Yan nod in satisfaction. She then looked toward Wu Xing apologetically. "Wu Xing, my grandfather was just joking. Don't take it to heart."

"Elder Dugu has a bold temperament. Of course I won't mind," Wu Xing replied with a smile.

Seeing that Wu Xing had not taken it to heart, Dugu Yan finally breathed a sigh of relief. She had gone to great lengths to invite him as a guest to build a good relationship with him. She could not let things backfire in the end.

Astonished Dugu Bo

Seeing his granddaughter lower herself so much, Dugu Bo's mouth twitched repeatedly. Since when did the granddaughter of the Poison Douluo need to curry favor with someone?

Still, he ultimately suppressed the urge to explode. He ushered everyone into the living room, though Wu Xing had already been added to his least welcome list.

"Xiao Lin, prepare two guest rooms. My friends will be staying here tonight. Also, have Zheng Yi prepare dinner. Make it more lavish," Dugu Yan quickly instructed the maid after arriving in the living room.

"Yes, Young Miss." Xiao Lin answered and withdrew.

Seeing how attentive his granddaughter was, Dugu Bo felt another pang in his heart. He could not vent his anger on Wu Xing for fear of upsetting his precious granddaughter, but he was not nearly as polite to Tang San. He directly used Tang San as a punching bag and casually tossed him into a corner.

Bang! Poor Tang San took the blame again. He landed face-first on the ground in a proper faceplant. Who knew whether his nose had been broken?

Seeing Dugu Bo's actions, Wu Xing felt that the old man seemed to be doing it deliberately for him to see. But he had not offended the old man, had he? Ever since entering this estate, he had been targeted at every turn.

Could it be because of the Immortal Herb Garden?

That was possible. He had dug up the entire Immortal Herb Garden. The fact that Dugu Bo had not exploded on the spot was probably only because Dugu Yan had done enough work to persuade him.

Of course, Wu Xing did not know that Dugu Yan had never told Dugu Bo that he had taken the Immortal Herbs. Dugu Bo also had no idea that Wu Xing was the culprit who had destroyed his Immortal Herb Garden. If he had known, even his precious granddaughter would not have been able to stop him. He said so himself!

"Grandpa, why did you capture this guy?" Looking at the unconscious Tang San, whom her grandfather had unceremoniously thrown into the corner, Dugu Yan did not care at all and merely asked curiously.

Clearly, Dugu Yan's personality was similar to her grandfather's. She was both righteous and wicked, direct and forthright. She possessed a girl's sunny disposition as well as a darker side. Only Wu Xing could make her restrain her temper.

Wu Xing was also interested in Dugu Yan's question. He had stolen all of Tang San's opportunities, so why had this guy still been captured by Dugu Bo just as in the original story?

Dugu Bo glanced at Tang San in the corner and said with a light laugh, "Yanyan, didn't Grandpa want to capture him and ask how he broke the poison of your third spirit skill, so I could vent your anger for you? That's why I brought him here."

"Grandpa, you don't need to vent my anger for me. I'll win back my dignity myself. During the All Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition, I'll defeat him personally in front of tens of thousands of people," Dugu Yan declared proudly.

Dugu Bo nearly burst into tears at her words. This was the precious granddaughter he knew. It was all this boy's fault for making his obedient granddaughter feel so unfamiliar. He had thought she would never return to normal.

Thinking this, Dugu Bo shot Wu Xing another resentful glare.

Wu Xing, standing to the side, found it utterly baffling. The old man had started again for no reason.

Still, Wu Xing was not particularly optimistic about Dugu Yan's words. Tang San was the Child of Fortune of Douluo Continent and also had all kinds of Tang Sect Hidden Weapons as cheats. Her desire to defeat him was no different from a fool's dream.

"Good, good, good." Dugu Bo withdrew his gaze and looked once more at his precious granddaughter, saying it three times in succession.

Seeing her grandfather laughing heartily, Dugu Yan seemed to remember something. A cunning smile appeared on her face as she said smugly, "Grandpa, my Soul Power is already level 43."

"Your Soul Power is level 43? That's great... Wait, what did you say? Your Soul Power is level 43?" Dugu Bo praised her instinctively, then realized something was wrong and instantly widened his eyes.

He remembered that half a month ago, his precious granddaughter's Soul Power had only been level 39. Now, half a month later, she was level 43?

An increase of four Soul Power levels in half a month? How was that possible!

Seeing the disbelief in her grandfather's eyes, Dugu Yan pouted and said angrily, "Grandpa, would your granddaughter lie to you?"

"It's not that Grandpa doesn't believe you, but Yanyan, this is simply too exaggerated." Dugu Bo spoke in disbelief.

As someone who had become a Titled Douluo, his talent naturally needed no explanation. Yet even he could not increase from level 39 Soul Power to level 43 in half a month. He could not even rise two levels!

"You just don't believe me." Dugu Yan pretended to be angry, then stretched out her hand. "If you don't believe me, check for yourself."

Dugu Bo instinctively took her hand and sent his Soul Power in to inspect her. The suspicion on his face vanished, replaced by astonishment. His precious granddaughter's Soul Power Level had truly reached level 43!

"How about that? Your granddaughter didn't lie to you, did she?" Seeing her stunned grandfather, Dugu Yan said proudly.

She had only revealed a little of her Soul Power, and it had already left her grandfather in disbelief. If she released her Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring and evolved Martial Soul next, would she not make his jaw drop?

Dugu Bo swallowed hard and asked with a trembling voice, "Y-Yanyan, how did you do it?"

"Hehe, I'll tell you how in a moment. Look at this first." After saying that with a giggle, Dugu Yan mobilized her Soul Power. The next second, four Spirit Rings appeared beneath her feet: yellow, yellow, purple, black!

The dazzling black Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring was so eye-catching that the already shocked Dugu Bo was left completely dumbfounded. Even as a Titled Douluo, he could no longer sit still and abruptly rose from his chair.

"Grandpa, take a closer look at your granddaughter's Martial Soul." Dugu Yan was extremely satisfied with her grandfather's reaction. Making her Titled Douluo grandfather lose his composure like this had always been her lifelong goal.
