Since he was going to awaken his Martial Soul, these two rewards would become the "Beginner's Gift Pack" he had prepared for himself!
[Li Yifei: @Bibi Dong, sorry, His Holiness the Pope, but I can't accept your proposal. I plan to use these two rewards myself.]
He rejected her cleanly and decisively.
Spirit Hall, within the bedchamber.
Bibi Dong, who had been staring intently at the screen, narrowed her beautiful eyes the instant she saw the reply. A dangerous glint flashed through them.
Use them himself?
A god from the God Realm needed Soul Rings and Soul Power too?
Could it be... he was planning to descend upon Douluo Continent himself?
The thought made Bibi Dong's heart leap. She was wary, but also felt an inexplicable hint of anticipation.
Li Yifei paid no further attention to Bibi Dong's reaction and sent another message in the group to reassure everyone.
[Li Yifei: I just had a little fun with A Big Lizard. It took some time, but it's already dealt with. I'm fine, so don't worry, everyone.]
His tone was casual, as though he were talking about something utterly insignificant.
[World's Number One Princess: Wahhh! Brother Yifei, you finally came out! You scared me to death!]
[Bunny Is So Cute: You dealt with it?! Brother Yifei, you defeated that Planetary-level Monster? You're amazing!]
[A Little Goose: A boss really is a boss. He said he'd deal with a Planetary-level Monster, and he did...]
The group immediately erupted in celebration, filled with admiration for him.
Li Yifei smiled and began considering the most crucial question.
Using the [Group Member Teleportation Ticket] required the other person's consent.
So, who should he choose as his teleportation target?
His gaze swept across the member list one name at a time.
Bibi Dong? The first one to be ruled out. That woman was too dangerous and deeply calculating. Teleporting to her side would be like walking into a trap.
World's Number One Princess—Ning Rongrong? The little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. She was naive and rich, and seemed quite safe.
But the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was a top-tier sect guarded by two Titled Douluo. If an unknown "god" like himself suddenly appeared, who knew what kind of investigation and trouble it would bring? He would leave her as a tentative option for now.
Bunny Is So Cute—Xiao Wu? A Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast who was still pretending to be young at Nuoding Academy. Teleporting to her would serve no real purpose and might easily expose her identity. Ruled out.
Ghost Cat—Zhu Zhuqing? She could barely protect herself and was currently fleeing pursuit from her family. Teleporting to her would mean becoming directly embroiled in the Star Luo Empire's royal struggle. Ruled out.
Is Jade Not Jade—Liu Erlong? Her personality was too fiery. She was not a good partner. Ruled out.
Little Fox Demon—Hu Liena? Bibi Dong's direct disciple. Teleporting to her was equivalent to teleporting right under Bibi Dong's nose. Ruled out.
The three question marks? He had no idea who they were. Ruled out.
Little Ice Cube—Shui Bing'er? Skywater Academy might be an all-girls school, but he was not trying to join it. He merely needed their help awakening his Martial Soul.
Tentatively retained.
She was his second priority, ahead of Ning Rongrong.
Li Yifei's gaze finally settled on an inconspicuous name.
[A Little Goose].
Dugu Yan.
She was not particularly strong, nor was her personality especially remarkable.
But she possessed an advantage that no one else could compare with—her grandfather was Poison Douluo, Dugu Bo.
And Dugu Bo occupied one of Douluo Continent's finest treasures, the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye!
Immortal Herbs grew everywhere there!
To say nothing else, a stalk of "Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass" and a stalk of "Infernal Delicate Apricot" could allow a martial artist to undergo a complete transformation through tempering in ice and fire.
Such heavenly treasures would bring immeasurable benefits to a martial artist like him who had only just entered the Planetary level!
Moreover, both Dugu Bo and his granddaughter suffered from severe poison and were in endless agony. That was precisely a bargaining chip he could use.
He would trade a method of detoxification for the opportunity to enter the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye, along with several Immortal Herbs.
The deal was practically perfect!
His target was instantly decided.
Li Yifei no longer hesitated. He directly clicked on Dugu Yan's avatar and selected a private chat.
[Li Yifei: Hello, Little Goose. I want to make a deal with you, one that can change both your fate and your grandfather's.]
The message Li Yifei sent in the private chat window made Dugu Yan's heart suddenly tighten.
Change their fate?
Dugu Yan's first reaction was caution.
This mysterious powerhouse who called himself a "High-level God of War" was unbelievably powerful, but his words were too absolute.
[A Little Goose: I don't understand what you mean.]
She replied cautiously, revealing no information.
[Li Yifei: You don't understand? Then let me be more specific. The Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor Martial Soul is very powerful, but it has also brought you endless suffering. Whenever it rains, that numbness and stabbing pain that seep into your bones—your grandfather should understand them even better than you do, right?]
This was the greatest secret between her and her grandfather, an unsolvable curse passed down through their family's Martial Soul!
How... how did he know?!
Dugu Yan clenched her fists, her nails digging deeply into her palms. Her entire body trembled faintly with agitation.
[A Little Goose: You... you really have a way?]
Her tone was filled with doubt, but even more so with a trace of pleading that she herself had not noticed.
[Li Yifei: Since I can name your predicament, I naturally have a solution.]
[A Little Goose: What do you need?! As long as we can do it!]
Dugu Yan no longer hesitated. As long as she could remove the deadly poison that had tormented her family for generations, she was willing to pay any price.
[Li Yifei: My conditions are simple. First, I need an absolutely safe place to descend. Second, arrange a Martial Soul awakening for me.]
[A Little Goose: A Martial Soul awakening?! You want to awaken a Martial Soul?]
Dugu Yan was completely stunned. This "god" who had crushed the Pope did not even have a Martial Soul?
[Li Yifei: Who told you I was a god?]
[A Little Goose: ???]
[Li Yifei: That was something you imagined yourselves. I'm from another world, and I'm a God of War. As for awakening a Martial Soul, I simply think your world's cultivation system might be helpful to me.]
A God of War? Not a god?
Dugu Yan's mind could barely process it, but she knew that was not important.
[Li Yifei: Any problems? I'm about to arrive in your world. Is the deal on or not? Give me a clear answer.]
Li Yifei's tone allowed no doubt.
[A Little Goose: No problem! I'll go tell Grandpa right away! We agree!]
The deal was made.
Li Yifei closed the private chat, returned to the main group, and directly tagged Dugu Yan.
[Li Yifei: @A Little Goose, get ready. I'll be there soon.]
This single sentence detonated like a depth charge in the Douluo Peerless Chat Group!
[World's Number One Princess: What?! Brother Yifei, you're coming to Douluo Continent? You chose Little Goose?! Why didn't you choose me! Our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has more money! And prettier girls!]
