Qian Daoliu: In Spirit City, I Am Invincible
"Explain in detail!"
Upon hearing Dugu Bo's words, Qing Mu's eyes lit up, and she quickly pressed for an answer.
Dugu Bo explained, "For the Spirit Hall right now, the wise choice would be to consolidate its defenses rather than launch a frenzied Revenge."
Choosing Revenge may provide temporary relief, but if you're truly pushed to the brink, they'll suffer even greater losses if you attack the Spirit Hall.
Upon hearing this, Qing Mu nodded thoughtfully, "Did the Spirit Hall take advantage of my absence to capture you and threaten me?"
"That's possible, but unlikely!"
Dugu Bo shook his head and continued to explain, "You're afraid they'll take this opportunity to attack you, but aren't they afraid you'll attack them?"
You must understand that because of you, the Spirit Hall has lost five Title Douluo, which is an enormous loss and enough to greatly reduce the Spirit Hall's strength.
They now only have two options: one is to suppress you with overwhelming force, but they probably don't have that ability right now, since even Qian Daoliu was at a disadvantage in his confrontation with you.
Another option is to reach a settlement with you, whether temporary or long-term. This means they can't attack you for a while, and you can do whatever you want during that time.
After listening to Dugu Bo's Analytic, Qing Mu finally felt relieved. Indeed, if the Spirit Hall were to act rationally, they should be more afraid of him now.
Immediately, Qing Mu smiled and said, "Thank Senior Dugu. I know what to do next!"
On the other side, Qian Daoliu was flying rapidly through the air with Qian Renxue in his arms, tearing apart the clouds in their path and leaving faint golden trails in their wake.
Thanks to Qian Daoliu's extremely fast speed, they quickly arrived at Spirit City.
"Pfft~"
Upon arriving at Spirit City, Qian Daoliu could no longer suppress his injuries and coughed up a mouthful of blood.
Seeing this, Qian Renxue immediately helped Qian Daoliu up, and said with some concern, "Grandpa, your injuries..."
However, before Qian Renxue could finish speaking, Qian Daoliu waved his hand, "I know my injuries. I'll be fine after a while. Right now, the most important thing isn't me, but you, Xiao Xue!"
"I?"
Qian Renxue was slightly taken aback, then pointed to herself, looking somewhat at a loss.
Qian Daoliu nodded. "That's right. We've already fallen out with Qing Mu, and Qing Mu is stronger than us. If this continues, the Spirit Hall might be in danger of being destroyed."
At this point, Qian Daoliu sighed. In fact, he did not agree with killing Qing Mu. In his mind, even if Qing Mu did not agree to join the Spirit Hall, as long as Qing Mu did not show any disgust towards the Spirit Hall, he would not really do anything.
After all, the Spirit Hall has existed for so long, it's impossible that it hasn't encountered situations where outsiders are stronger than the Spirit Hall. In fact, the Spirit Hall has mature experience in dealing with such situations and can maintain peaceful coexistence in most cases.
At most, he'll just have to play the subservient role for a while.
However, Bibi Dong's merciless attack on Qing Mu directly disrupted all his plans, forcing him to take action against Qing Mu as well.
The result has been the worst-case scenario we see now.
When Qing Mu was mentioned, Qian Renxue's expression turned somewhat unpleasant, clearly Qing Mu's previous performance had left a deep impression on her.
But Qian Renxue was, after all, the young master of the Spirit Hall, and she quickly suppressed her fear, asking Qian Daoliu, "Grandpa, is there anything I can do?"
Seeing Qian Renxue recover so quickly, a look of satisfaction flashed in Qian Daoliu's eyes. This was truly the successor of their Angel Clan.
"Given the current situation, the undercover mission to the Heaven Dou Empire is no longer suitable for you. Abandon it!"
Upon hearing Qian Daoliu's words, Qian Renxue instinctively clenched her fists. She had been planning this project for so many years, and now she was giving up just like that. She couldn't help but feel a little unwilling.
Qian Daoliu observed Qian Renxue Qian Renxue's behavior and knew what she was thinking, but he didn't care. He had never agreed with the so-called undercover plan in the first place; in his opinion, it was all nonsense concocted by Bibi Dong.
The Spirit Hall was created by the Angel God to end the chaos of the world, in order to allow Spirit Master to develop better, resist the impact of Soul Beast, and win a better living space for humanity.
It is precisely because of this that the Spirit Hall has endured and become the strongest Spirit Master force.
Therefore, Qian Daoliu did not value expansion. He was already the strongest, so what if the Spirit Hall absorbed the Heaven Dou Empire? It would only make the Spirit Hall stronger.
However, this does not mean that Qian Daoliu was without selfish motives. In fact, Qian Daoliu was selfish and did not achieve true impartiality in the matter of Qian Xunji. As a result, he acquiesced to many of Bibi Dong's actions out of a sense of guilt, which led to the Spirit Hall becoming what it is today.
"If I had handled the Xunji matter properly and dealt with Bibi Dong normally, would things have turned out differently?"
Thinking about this, Qian Daoliu fell into deep thought.
"Grandpa, Grandpa!"
Qian Renxue's voice brought Qian Daoliu back to his senses. Qian Daoliu quickly cleared his mind of distractions, patted Qian Renxue's head, and said, "Next, I will begin the God Trial for you. Only when you pass the test of the Angel God and inherit the Angel Godhood can our Spirit Hall truly possess the strength to be fearless against Qing Mu."
The past is past, and dwelling on it is pointless. The most important thing now is to deal with the crisis brought about by Qing Mu.
"Angel God Trial, to inherit the Divine Position?"
Upon hearing Qian Daoliu's words, Qian Renxue was immediately shocked, never expecting that the Qian Clan would have such a secret.
Qian Daoliu nodded. "This is the biggest secret of our Qian Clan. Xiao Xue, you have a high level of talent and the possibility of triggering the Angel's Nine Trials."
However, your time is very limited. Qing Mu's talent is terrifying, and it's possible he could become a god, so you must become a god before him!
Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue's expression instantly turned serious, and she asked Qian Daoliu, "So, under normal circumstances, how long does it take to completely pass the Angel's Nine Trials?"
"I don't know, it varies from person to person."
Qian Daoliu replied, "It could take anywhere from seven or eight years to several decades, but you don't have several decades, not even seven or eight years. You only have five years at most."
Why five years?
Qian Renxue frowned, somewhat puzzled.
Qian Daoliu: "Because I can only hold off Qing Mu for you for five years at most, and after five years, Qing Mu's strength may surpass mine."
"... Uh, but Grandpa, it seems you lost your fight with Qing Mu."
Qian Renxue reminded her.
Qian Daoliu: "That's true in other places, but this is Spirit City. In Spirit City, I can summon a trace of Angel Divine Power. Unless a god personally intervenes, no one can defeat me."
