Looking at his four disciples soaking in the large wooden tub, Luo Can nodded in satisfaction.
After this physical enhancement, the eldest disciple Ye Lingling and the second disciple Dugu Yan will be able to absorb their Third Spirit Ring with an age limit of at least six thousand years. If they take another Body Refining Pill, their lifespan will be at least eight thousand years.
As for the third disciple Tang Ya and the fourth disciple Xiao Xiao, even their First Spirit Ring, which are only at the beginning of their training, can steadily reach a thousand years.
" Xiao Xiao, come out and practice the Thunderclap Bombardment Fist for me in a bit. I want to see how well you've mastered it," Luo Can shouted into the bucket.
Xiao Xiao was comfortably soaking in the medicinal bath when she heard this and immediately replied cheerfully, "Okay!"
After an incense stick has burned.
Xiao Xiao was the first to rush out of the Medicine Room, her little face flushed from being soaked in water. She ran up to Luo Can, stood still, and began practicing her boxing.
As she entered Thunderclap state, faint wisps of lightning emanated from her body. With each punch, lightning enveloped her fist, easily leaving a charred mark on the hard iron stake.
The Thunder State continued to deepen, with Thunderlight constantly coursing through Xiao Xiao's meridians. Through the tempering of the lightning, her speed, reaction speed, and strength were steadily improving.
Of course, this state also consumed a great deal of soul power. Even with the Mysterious Heaven Skill as a foundation, she could only last for less than five minutes before she was completely exhausted and could no longer throw a punch.
"Master! How was it? Did Xiao Xiao do alright?" Xiao Xiao asked Luo Can, panting heavily.
Luo Can smiled and ruffled her hair, praising her generously. "You played very well."
The Thunderclap Bombardment Fist is divided into three levels. The first level is Thunder, the core of which is to draw lightning into the body to temper the body, so that the soul power and lightning resonate, thereby unleashing a powerful lightning attribute attack.
In the Thunder State state, those with good talent will see their attack power continuously increase, up to three times. Xiao Xiao's performance just now achieved nearly a 100% increase, which is quite remarkable for her age.
"Hehe, Master, since I did so well, will there be a reward?" Xiao Xiao rubbed her hands together, smiling slyly.
"What reward does Xiao Xiao want?" Luo Can asked with a smile.
"I want to go out and play! And I want to eat lots of delicious food! Oh, right, I haven't read any new stories in ages!" Xiao Xiao looked up and counted on her fingers.
"Alright, you can have as much fun as you want these days. Master will provide you with plenty of delicious food, and you'll get your share of storybooks too." Luo Can readily agreed.
"Yay! Long live Master!" Xiao Xiao cheered excitedly.
Luo Can smiled and ruffled her hair again, "Alright, go back and get some rest!"
"Yes!" Xiao Xiao nodded vigorously.
As evening fell, Ju Zi rushed back to the Fate Defying Valley, her face full of anxiety.
" A-Can, something terrible has happened!" she cried out as soon as she saw Luo Can. "I just saw a message on the Receiver, something horrible has occurred!"
Luo Can quickly reassured her, "Don't panic, tell me slowly, what happened?"
"After Gui Mei returned from the Spirit Hall, he told Yue Guan that Bibi Dong was coming to retrieve the Blood-Colored Sword Tip herself, and would arrive in Nuoding City in two days at most!" Ju Zi delivered the message in a rapid-fire manner.
As soon as she finished speaking, Qian Renxue walked in from outside the valley. Seeing Luo Can's solemn expression and Ju Zi's anxious face beside him, she immediately asked, "Is there a problem with the Spirit Hall?"
Luo Can nodded and said in a deep voice, "Yes, Bibi Dong is coming to Nuoding City in person to retrieve that sword tip."
Hearing this, Qian Renxue frowned. "That's strange. It's just a strange sword tip, isn't it? Even if it has some special power, it shouldn't be worth her taking it so seriously, making her make a special trip here in person."
Luo Can stroked his chin, pondered for a moment, and then said, "I think she came not only for the sword tip. More importantly, the traces of the battle Nuoding City, the clash between Titled Douluo of level 98 and above, must have made her wary, and she wanted to come and see for herself if she could find any clues."
Ju Zi added from the side, "And what if Yue Guan gives himself away? If he says something wrong, all our previous arrangements will be ruined!"
Upon hearing this, both Luo Can and Qian Renxue felt a pang of anxiety. Ju Zi was right; Bibi Dong Yue Guan hiding such a big secret, it would be easy for her to see through her.
After a long silence, Qian Renxue finally broke it. "I've already sent a letter to Grandpa through special channels. The letter clearly explains all the Asura Divine Power within the Blood-Colored Sword Tip. It should arrive by tomorrow at the latest."
Luo Can's eyes lit up. "If Qian Daoliu comes, then this matter will be much easier to handle."
Qian Daoliu is the Great Enshrined of the Spirit Hall, Peerless Douluo, and the spokesperson of the Angel God. He must be well aware of the dangers of this thing. He can tolerate Bibi Dong becoming Pope because of Qian Renxue, but he will never allow Bibi Dong to do anything that would harm the Spirit Hall or Qian Renxue.
"It's not that simple." Qian Renxue shook her head. "Grandpa can't show himself directly, much less confront Bibi Dong head-on. If he and Bibi Dong were to break off relations, it would mean the Spirit Hall would be completely split. So I estimate that Grandpa will at most provide covert support and won't make a move openly."
Luo Can nodded. He knew that in Qian Daoliu's heart, Qian Renxue's ascension to godhood was the top priority, followed by the integrity of the Spirit Hall. He would never do anything that would cause the Spirit Hall to split apart.
He pondered for a long time, then suddenly his eyes lit up. "I've got it! We can use a diversionary tactic, and then add a substitution!"
Qian Renxue and Ju Zi immediately turned to look at him, waiting for him to continue.
"First, have Yue Guan find a way to buy us time." Luo Can held up one finger. "Once Bibi Dong arrives, Yue Guan should tell her that Yu Xiaogang is at the Nuoding Academy and has been completely devastated lately because of his disgrace. This will distract her and buy us some time."
" Bibi Dong's feelings for Yu Xiaogang, she'll definitely be tempted to take a look. While she's at it, let's make a fake sword tip in advance."
He turned to Ju Zi: " Ju Zi, find a similar Blood Crystal, make one that looks exactly the same, then seal some dark attribute soul power inside to make it a bit sinister, and make it into a sword-shaped Soul Tool. Ideally, it should be so convincing that an ordinary Titled Douluo can't tell the difference between the real and fake."
"That's easy! Give me a day, and I guarantee I'll do it exactly the same!" Ju Zi immediately patted her chest and agreed.
"Once the fake one is finished, we'll head to Nuoding City ahead of time and find an opportunity to have Yue Guan replace the real sword tip. We'll leave the fake one behind to fool Bibi Dong," Luo Can continued. "The real sword tip that's been replaced will be handed over directly to Qian Daoliu so he can take it back to the Worship Hall safekeeping."
Qian Renxue's eyes lit up instantly. "This is a great idea! It will prevent the tip of the real sword from falling into Bibi Dong's hands, prevent Grandpa from clashing with Bibi Dong, and also keep Yue Guan from being exposed. It's a win-win-win situation!"
"The only thing to be careful about is that you can't make a mistake when changing the sword tip, and you absolutely can't let the Gui Mei find out," Luo Can added.
"Don't worry, I'll send a message to Yue Guan right now and tell him our plan so he can find an opportunity in advance." Ju Zi nodded, immediately took out her Communication Soul Tool, and quickly sent a message to Yue Guan.
Meanwhile, at the edge of the deep pit Nuoding City.
Yue Guan was leaning against a rock, pretending to rest with his eyes closed, but his mind was a complete mess.
He knew Bibi Dong too well; that woman had eyes as sharp as knives, able to spot the slightest thing amiss. He was carrying such a heavy burden in his heart, and he was truly afraid that if he said the wrong thing in front of her, it would be the end for him.
Just as his heart was pounding with anxiety, the Chrysanthemum Badge on his chest vibrated slightly. He touched the badge without making a sound and instantly received the complete plan from Ju Zi.
After reading it, Yue Guan breathed a long sigh of relief, finally feeling relieved: the Young Master was indeed thoughtful, now there was no need to panic.
"What's wrong? You don't look well." Gui Mei returned after checking the Barrier and asked casually when she saw his strange expression.
"It's nothing." Yue Guan immediately snapped out of her reverie, waved her hand, and feigned a worried expression. "I'm just a little worried because His Holiness the Pope is coming in person. After all, we haven't found any useful clues, and I'm afraid His Holiness will be displeased."
Without giving it much thought, Gui Mei nodded reassuringly, "Don't worry, as long as we keep a close eye on it and nothing goes wrong, His Majesty won't say anything more."
Yue Guan smiled and agreed, but in his heart he was already plotting how to find an opportunity to replace the real sword tip.
He looked up at the setting sun and knew that Bibi Dong would arrive here in two days at most.
Meanwhile, in the Fate Defying Valley, Ju Zi had already rushed out of the Fate Defying Valley in a flurry of activity, hurrying off to make the fake Blood-Colored Sword Tip.
