"Father! Do you think your son's wife is outstanding?!"
Qian Yunxiao spoke first.
Giving Qian Daoliu a bit of face.
Fury showed on Qian Daoliu's face as he said, "Do you still see me as your father? You actually married a Soul Beast! You have utterly disgraced the Qian Family!"
After arriving in Skywater City, Qian Daoliu naturally had to see what his daughter-in-law looked like.
Although Qian Yunxiao had not informed him when he got married, Qian Daoliu still had to meet his daughter-in-law.
He had even prepared a gift for their first meeting!
With Qian Daoliu's strength, he saw through Ah Yin's true nature at a glance! He flew into a rage on the spot! If he had not considered that Ah Yin was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast capable of providing a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring, Qian Daoliu would truly have wanted to slap her to death! Suppressing his anger, he questioned Qianjun Douluo.
Qian Daoliu did not believe Qianjun Douluo was unaware of Ah Yin's identity.
Since he knew, why had Qianjun Douluo not told him sooner? Naturally, Qianjun Douluo had no way to explain the reason.
So Qian Daoliu came to interrogate Qian Yunxiao.
Ah Yin had also been forcibly brought to the side.
At that moment, Ah Yin looked at Qian Yunxiao aggrievedly, her expression filled with fear.
Ah Yin did not know how her husband would react when facing pressure from his family.
Would he abandon her?
Ah Yin was utterly at a loss! "Hm? Since when was marrying a Soul Beast a disgrace? Shouldn't it be an honor? Ah Yin is such a beautiful woman. Being able to win her over and marry her as my wife is, in my eyes, the thing most worth boasting about in my life!"
Qian Yunxiao looked at Ah Yin and spoke word by word, easing much of the unease in her heart.
Her husband truly cared for her.
She felt that, other than not yet having borne a child, she had no regrets left in her life.
In Qian Yunxiao's view, Qian Daoliu's... vision was too narrow! On Douluo Continent, marrying a Soul Beast was how one reached the pinnacle of life! Still, it was normal for Qian Daoliu not to know that.
If he had known, Spirit Hall could not possibly have been destroyed by Tang San.
Without any expression on his face, Qian Daoliu displayed the supreme bearing he once held when commanding Spirit Hall and said, "I will give you a choice. Give this Soul Beast to your elder brother. Your elder brother will soon reach level ninety, and when the time comes, he can absorb her Soul Ring and become a Titled Douluo!"
Those words completely shattered Ah Yin!
How... could this be?! Facing Qian Daoliu's arrangement, Qian Yunxiao sneered. "Qian Xunji, that piece of trash, thinks he is worthy of touching my wife? Is he tired of living?!"
That trash Qian Xunji would still be trash even if he were given a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring.
Even if he were given a Two-Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring, he would still be trash!
After saying that, Qian Yunxiao went straight to Ah Yin's side, pulled her into his arms, and asked with concern, "Ah Yin, are you all right?"
Ah Yin shook her head repeatedly.
With Qianjun Douluo speaking up for her, Qian Daoliu had not made things too difficult for her.
"Insolence! He is your elder brother!"
Qian Yunxiao's words greatly enraged Qian Daoliu.
How could the family develop if they fought amongst themselves like this?!
"Is he worthy?!"
Qian Yunxiao took a slight step forward with his right foot.
In an instant, cracks stretching dozens of meters spread across the tiled ground beneath his foot.
Eight Soul Rings flashed behind Qian Yunxiao.
The eighth, a red Soul Ring, was especially eye-catching.
"How is this possible?!"
Both Qian Daoliu and Qianjun Douluo were stunned.
Qianjun Douluo especially so.
Qian Yunxiao had been right under his watch, so how had he not only reached Soul Douluo, but also obtained a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring? Ah Yin was also shocked. Wasn't her husband a Soul Saint? How had he suddenly become a Soul Douluo, and where had he gotten a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring? Shocked as she was, Qian Yunxiao had turned against his own family to protect her today, and Ah Yin had already resolved to follow him unto death!
"I am about to reach the realm of Titled Douluo. Isn't it time for that trash Qian Xunji to step down?!"
Qian Yunxiao was only putting on a show.
He truly did not like showing off.
Qian Daoliu had forced him to do it!
"You... even so, that Soul Beast cannot be brought into the family. When you are on the verge of becoming a Titled Douluo, kill her and let her help you embark upon the path to godhood!"
Qian Daoliu did not know what kind of opportunity Qian Yunxiao had encountered.
But the strength Qian Yunxiao had displayed was indeed far superior to Qian Xunji's, making him more suitable to become Spirit Hall's Pope.
Yet his eighth Soul Ring was already Hundred-Thousand-Year.
If his ninth Soul Ring was also Hundred-Thousand-Year...
Qian Daoliu did not dare imagine it!
Still, even if Qian Yunxiao was a genius, he could not violate the family's rules.
In Qian Daoliu's eyes, the Angel Family was sacred. How could they associate with Soul Beasts? That was the choice of the fallen!
"I am not beasts like you! Ah Yin is my wife, and that is a fact that will never change in this lifetime. I will spend my entire life protecting her and protecting her child. Anyone who dares harm even a single hair on Ah Yin's head, I will never let them go!"
This was Qian Yunxiao's promise.
He was not trash like Tang Hao, unable even to protect his own woman!
Ah Yin clung tightly to Qian Yunxiao.
Already prone to tears, she now wept until her face was drenched.
Meeting Qian Yunxiao in this life was simply luck earned through several lifetimes of virtue!
"If you refuse to kill her, then forget about becoming Spirit Hall's Pope!"
Qian Daoliu was truly about to explode from anger at Qian Yunxiao.
Was this unfilial son really going to give up supreme glory for a Soul Beast?
"Spirit Hall is nothing. If it does not even have the tolerance for this, then it is not worth staying in!"
Previously, Qian Yunxiao had indeed coveted the position of Spirit Hall's Pope.
But merely marrying Ah Yin had already granted him such strength.
If he married Shui Youlan as well, what would Spirit Hall even count for?
"Unfilial son!"
Unable to contain his fury, Qian Daoliu struck with his palm.
The terrifying Soul Power made even Qianjun Douluo feel despair.
Qian Yunxiao would not stupidly stand there and let Qian Daoliu hit him. He was not that foolish!
"Blue Silver Entanglement."
In truth, Qian Yunxiao had wanted to add, "You have chosen the path to death," followed by 'Blue Silver Entanglement.'
But in the end, he did not do so.
As soon as the Blue Silver Domain formed, Qian Daoliu's casual strike was effortlessly swallowed by the Blue Silver Grass under Qian Yunxiao's control.
"This is..."
Within this domain that had only just condensed, Qian Daoliu felt the need for caution.
He sensed that this domain was far from simple.
What opportunity had his son encountered? Could he have inherited the legacy of another god?
"Father, I will not say much about your attitude toward Ah Yin. Three years from now, I will bring Ah Yin and my daughter back to Spirit Hall. At that time, let the Angel God you revere most personally judge whether my wife and my daughter are qualified to become members of Spirit Hall, as you claim they are not!"
Qian Yunxiao did not want to fight Qian Daoliu. After all, they were related, and that bound him.
Was Qian Daoliu truly the one whose word was law in Spirit Hall?
No. To put it bluntly, Qian Daoliu was merely a servant of the Angel God! Qian Yunxiao would make Qian Daoliu's master personally beg his daughter and woman to return to Spirit Hall!
That would be far more satisfying than defeating Qian Daoliu with strength and forcing him to submit!
"Fine. I would like to see what you are truly capable of!"
Qian Daoliu had also been forced by Qian Yunxiao to take a step back.
He wanted to see just what Qian Yunxiao could accomplish in three years! He wanted to see just how remarkable that Soul Beast's womb was and what kind of terrifying child it could bear!
"Qian Jun, let's go!"
Temporarily disappointed in Qian Yunxiao, Qian Daoliu took Qianjun Douluo with him as well.
Given Qian Yunxiao's current strength, he no longer needed Qianjun Douluo's protection!
"Hall Master..."
After Qian Daoliu and Qianjun Douluo left, Ah Yin looked at Qian Yunxiao in anguish.
Tears streamed down her face, yet her heart was filled with happiness.
Qian Yunxiao had kept his promise to protect her, even when facing an enemy he could not defeat!
"Qian Yunxiao..."
Just as Qian Yunxiao was comforting Ah Yin,
Shui Youlan, having received some news, hurried over.
