Thinking about whether Bian Que could use Soul Beast to develop Martial Soul Awakening Pill, such as this former Blue Silver Emperor, if used for alchemy, could it help those Blue Silver Grass Soul Beast awaken the Blue Silver Emperor Bloodline and improve their Martial Soul quality?

It's important to know that Blue Silver Grass is listed as the worst of the ten Trash Martial Soul, and the largest proportion of people who awaken Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul are actually those who can. If these people's Martial Soul could be awakened again, they might be able to gain Soul Power and become Soul Master.

Qian Xunji's extraordinary wisdom came into play once again.

The more he thought about it, the more promising it seemed. Qian Xunji slapped his forehead and exclaimed, "I'm so clever!"

"Let's go, Xiao Xue, you should try it out this time too."

"Practice what?" Qian Renxue asked, puzzled.

"Alchemy!"

"But I don't know how! I've never passed my alchemy class," Qian Renxue said embarrassedly.

She truly had no talent for alchemy, and neither did her older siblings.

In their small group, only Dugu Yan knew how to refine pills, and she only knew how to refine poison pills.

We arrived at the Alchemy Hall.

The Alchemy Hall is no longer the desolate place it once was.

The entire Alchemy Hall was filled with the aroma of medicine, and people dressed as apprentices in the Alchemy Hall were constantly moving about busily.

A long queue has now formed in front of the counter.

Individuals were the ones exchanging the pills; the pills from the various branch halls and the Spirit Hall Academy had already been claimed according to the list at the beginning of the month.

Qian Xunji did not enter through the main gate, but instead took the familiar route to the backyard where alchemy was conducted.

They just happened to catch Bian Que, who was explaining his situation and planning to flee to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

He had dark circles under his eyes, and Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan was discussing the business direction of the Alchemy Hall with him.

Basic pills can now be sold off and handed over to alchemy apprentices for refining. However, for complex pills, only Chrysanthemum Douluo and Bian Que can refine them at this stage...

Upon seeing his Summoner carrying Qian Renxue, Bian Que instinctively sensed something was wrong.

Or rather, almost nothing good comes from Summoner coming to him. It's like a client who comes up with one outrageous suggestion after another, and you have no choice but to comply, or they'll unexpectedly give you a "blow to the head".

As expected, after hearing Qian Xunji's new request, Chrysanthemum Douluo looked at Bian Que, the young palace master, with pity.

He wasn't jealous at all that Bian Que could become the head of the Alchemy Hall. He deserved to be the head of the Alchemy Hall because he could fulfill His Holiness the Pope's outrageous demands.

Chrysanthemum Douluo had absolutely no intention of usurping the throne. If he were to develop these outrageous pills, he would probably go insane without ever creating them.

Qian Renxue looked at the boy in front of her with pity; his golden eyes were dull and lifeless. His father had fallen ill again...

·································

Covering his face and hiding from Xiao Xue who was spying outside the Pope Palace, Qian Daoliu quickly flew back to his own Worship Hall.

He touched the corner of his mouth.

"Hiss, that unfilial son is really ruthless!"

but...

"This rebellious son actually passed the divine test? And he even has divine power?" After all these years, looking at his son's mental state, Qian Daoliu still thought that Qian Xunji had made up the divine test at the beginning.

In this encounter, the opponent was able to unleash divine power.

These guardians of the divine examinations are also capable of using some divine power, but the amount they can use is very small.

Furthermore, there are unspoken rules among the protectors, such as...

We must not harm those who have passed the nine trials of the gods and become divine successors.

For ordinary Soul Master to take action is a test for the successor.

Limit Douluo of the Guardian level directly attacked...

Um...

The gods only wanted their successor to grow, not to actually kill him!

Moreover, normally, in order to protect their heritage, Bright Capital leave behind contingency plans, such as these guardians...

But what divine inheritance did this rebellious son receive?

It appears from time to time carrying a child; is it a deity in charge of fertility or reproduction?

I've never heard of this deity!

Suddenly, footsteps sounded beside me; someone had arrived at the Worship Hall.

"Brother, your brothers have come to see you. Don't be angry anymore. The Martial Soul Awakening Pill isn't some Evil Soul Master's trick; it's a normal result of technological research. Brother, you need to learn to accept new things and step out of the Worship Hall..."

Golden Crocodile Douluo walked in as he spoke, followed by Azure Luan Douluo and other retainers.

They were afraid that their eldest brother, with his temper, would Qian Xunji for an Evil Soul Master and beat him to death, so they came together to persuade him.

They had seen the materials for the Martial Soul Awakening Pill, and it wasn't really a method used by Evil Soul Master; it was just that someone needed to sacrifice themselves during the research phase.

However, Qian Xunji himself took the lead, while the other research subjects were all wanted criminals and criminals captured by the Spirit Hall, which was really nothing special.

"Huh!? Where did everyone go?"

"Why isn't my elder brother in the Worship Hall? Has he already gone to the Pope Palace?"

But they had just passed by the Pope Palace and hadn't seen anyone there!

Chapter 142 Qian Xunji and the Divine Test

Golden Crocodile Douluo was a bit strange. His elder brother either spent most of his time in the Worship Hall, occasionally going outside to see Xiao Xue, or sometimes going to the Pope Palace to settle scores with Pope Qian Xunji.

But there's nobody at any of these three places today, where can my brother go?

Unbeknownst to Golden Crocodile Douluo, his elder brother, with a bruised and swollen face, stood silently suspended in mid-air above the entrance to the Worship Hall.

With such a face, Qian Daoliu really didn't want to meet his old brothers.

The injury on my face—it's fine if the other person doesn't ask, but if they do, how should I answer?

Did you massage yourself, or did you accidentally fall and hurt yourself?

Qian Daoliu never lies, but he really couldn't bring himself to tell the story of how he ended up getting beaten up instead of disciplining his son.

This is too detrimental to my authority as the eldest brother.

That unfilial son of mine is truly something else. He not only hit me, but he also specifically targeted my face. I used to give him face as Pope, only hitting his back and other areas covered by his clothes so he could still be seen in public. Is this how he treats me?

Absolutely outrageous!

"Perhaps my elder brother has gone out on business," Golden Crocodile Douluo guessed.

Azure Luan Douluo watched as the golden feather slowly fell from the entrance of the Worship Hall. He caught it with his hand, subconsciously looked up, and saw his elder brother's face, bruised and swollen, yet still elegant and handsome.

The two looked at each other, then Azure Luan Douluo silently looked away, as if nothing had happened.

We need to save face for our elder brother!

The Guang Ling Douluo beside him noticed something was wrong with his companion. He was about to look up in the direction of the Azure Luan Douluo's gaze when a hand pressed his head down.

Azure Luan Douluo quickly and naturally stopped Guang Ling Douluo, then said casually, "Since we can't find Big Brother, why don't we go find the Pope first? After all, if Big Brother wants to take action, he will definitely go to the Pope."

"It wouldn't be good if my eldest brother didn't come back and went straight to the Pope."

Golden Crocodile Douluo thought for a moment, then nodded in agreement, "That works too."

Just as he finished speaking and was about to leave with his men, he inexplicably felt a gaze upon him. Golden Crocodile Douluo subconsciously looked up...

"Second Brother, what are you looking at?" Mighty Lion Douluo also looked in the same direction.

It happened so suddenly that Azure Luan Douluo didn't even have time to react and stop her.

When two people around you are looking up in the same direction, you will also find yourself looking up in that direction without realizing it.

Curiosity killed the cat!

But I'm really curious!

This time, Guang Ling Douluo looked up as well, and Azure Luan Douluo no longer stopped him.

Guang Ling Douluo couldn't help but smile, wanting to laugh, but he forcibly held it back.

So that's what the third brother was looking at!

No one spoke; everyone lowered their heads nonchalantly and continued to leave, as if they hadn't noticed anything.

·································

Until we were far away from the Worship Hall.

The six priests breathed a sigh of relief and couldn't help but start discussing it.

"Who did you fight, Big Brother?" Qianjun Douluo asked, somewhat puzzled.

No one attacked the Spirit Hall, so the injuries on my brother's body could only have been inflicted by his own people.

A bad feeling crept into Qianjun Douluo's mind.

Could it be...?

"It must have been the Pope who did it," said the Guang Ling Douluo in a lighthearted tone, echoing everyone's thoughts.

"My elder brother has been living in seclusion for many years, only in the last ten years or so have he occasionally made moves against the Pope's crown."

Great Enshrined Qian Daoliu stayed in the Worship Hall, occasionally visiting Qian Xunji and Qian Renxue. He didn't even leave Spirit City, so he had no opportunity to fight with others.

Xiao Xue, regardless of her strength or personality, could never have beaten her grandfather to this extent.

The only person capable of punching their own father would be Qian Xunji, who always cursed them as old and decrepit.

"That's impossible! Maybe Tang Chen came back and sparred with Big Brother?" Falling Devil Douluo was still somewhat unwilling to believe it and argued.

Rather than believing that the seemingly eccentric Pope Qian Xunji possesses the strength to defeat his elder brother.

People are more inclined to believe that Tang Chen, who had been missing for a long time and was rumored to be dead, has returned alive, improved his strength, and is now seeking out his elder brother for a duel.

"Even when my older brother sparred with Tang Chen before, he wasn't injured this badly, and he even deliberately targeted the face..."

The Guang Ling Douluo smiled, "Taking the opponent's face, isn't that very much in line with our Pope's personality?"

According to him, if you hit someone, you have to hit them in the face, otherwise it's a pointless beating.
