The Drained Little Rabbit, Qian Renxue's Apprehension and Gravity
The morning sunlight filtered through the sheer curtains and fell on the soft bedding.
Warm light spilled over the edge of the bed, casting a pale golden dappled pattern on the wooden floor.
Lin Qingmo lay flat on the bed.
Xiao Wu, who was beside him, clung to him.
Her cheek was pressed against his chest, her breathing even and deep.
The glistening water droplets that had overflowed from the corners of his lips slid down his jawline and landed on his skin.
Lin Qingmo's fingertips gently brushed across Xiao Wu's hair.
Her long, smooth hair slipped slowly through her fingers.
The movements were very gentle.
Last night, Xiao Wu exhausted all her strength.
This Hundred-Thousand-Year Soft Bone Rabbit, which had only recently taken human form, was usually lively and flamboyant, and covered in thorns.
Once you let your guard down, you'll reveal this innocent and naive side that makes you want to bully and tease you.
His fingertips paused, stopping at Xiao Wu's hair.
The scent of Blue Silver Grass spread silently, enveloping the entire room.
Gentle life energy flowed along Xiao Wu's skin and into her meridians.
The Soul Power flowed slowly, helping to relieve the soreness all over her body.
Xiao Wu unconsciously nuzzled against his chest, muttering a vague sentence, "A-Qing... tired..."
He hugged her tighter.
A faint smile appeared on Lin Qingmo's lips.
My fingertips touched the tiny tree shadow in my palm.
The Blue Silver Tree of Life and Destruction Martial Soul shimmered with varying shades of light in my palm.
Lin Qingmo frowned.
Even now, he hasn't fully figured out the secret behind his Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul's mutation into this form.
He had previously asked Sister Eastern Emperor to help him find relevant information.
See if there are any records online about the Annihilation Force and that green stone.
Now, it's time to ask about the results.
On a whim, he activated the Light Screen of the Chat Group.
[Daddy Douluo]: The Pope Herself, my Imperial Sister, has there been any result regarding the matter I asked you to investigate before?
He sent the message, then leaned against the headboard, quietly waiting for a reply.
Pope Palace.
The candles burned all night.
Bibi Dong also didn't sleep all night.
On the table were spread the files and defense maps of the Single Attribute Four Clans.
She was just about to summon Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo to deploy an operation to exterminate the Single Attribute Four Clans.
Since it was something A-Qing mentioned, she wouldn't be negligent in the slightest.
Suddenly, a notification sound from the Chat Group rang in her mind.
"Um?"
She glanced down at Lin Qingmo's message on the Light Screen, her fingertips pausing for a moment.
She was already quite adept at handling situations like this.
As long as you get by, there won't be any problems.
[The Pope Herself]: A-Qing, I'm sorry, I couldn't find any information about the green stone, the Annihilation Attribute, or the Blue Silver Tree of Life and Destruction that you mentioned.
A reply popped up on the Light Screen, Lin Qingmo was not surprised at all.
"So there really isn't one?"
He muttered something to himself.
It's something that shouldn't exist in this world, so finding relevant information is indeed not easy.
[Daddy Douluo]: It's alright. It's not something that should exist in this world. It's normal that we can't find it.
The messages in the group were quickly reorganized.
[Green Green Grass]: A-Qing, have you returned to Heaven Dou City after your Soul Hunting?
Even though Ah Yin was in the Blue Silver Forest, she still cared a lot about Lin Qingmo.
[Daddy Douluo]: He's back; he just arrived last night.
Inside the Heaven Dou City's Crown Prince Mansion.
The sandalwood incense burned quietly in the study.
Qian Renxue sat upright at the table, her fingertips holding a white jade teacup.
Her entire focus was on the Chat Group Light Screen in front of her.
Previously, her daily routine consisted of cultivation and engaging in superficial interactions within the Heaven Dou Imperial Family.
These days, she spends most of her time in this Chat Group.
She no longer wanted to attend some of the hypocritical balls and banquets among the nobility.
Well, the conversations in the Chat Group are quite interesting, much more so than a dance or banquet.
However, Lin Qingmo was always the one she cared about the most.
"He's back?"
Qian Renxue's eyes lit up when she saw the news that Lin Qingmo had returned to Heaven Dou City.
Her fingertips traced the rim of the cup as she pondered what to ask him.
Suddenly, she stopped moving.
"How... is this possible?"
She stood up in surprise.
Completely stunned by Lin Qingmo's sudden revelation in the Chat Group.
The messages in the group are still being reorganized.
[Daddy Douluo]: Speaking of which, I have some shocking news to share with you guys from this trip.
[Yanzi ~]: What's up?
[Little Witch]: Hmm, what interesting things happened on your Soul Hunting journey?
[Bingbing]: Tsk, if it's something trivial, don't mention it. I'm going to sleep!
[Daddy Douluo]: Tsk tsk, this is a truly big event.
[Dad Douluo]: Tang Hao, he's actually already been dealt with by my master, Donghuang Jie!
The group chat instantly erupted in discussion.
[The Pope Herself]:...
[Mother Tyrannosaurus]:???
[Little Witch]: That legendary Clear Sky Douluo?!
[Big-Breasted Kitty]: A-Qing, are you serious?
[Yanzi ~]: Really?
[Green Green Grass]: A-Qing, is what you said true? Tang Hao... he's dead?
People in the group who were unaware of the situation continued to ask questions.
[Bingbing]: Wait a minute, who is this Tang Hao you're talking about? Is he very powerful?
[Heavenly Snow Woman]: I'm also very curious. What is this Tang Hao's identity that has elicited such a strong reaction from you all?
Lin Qingmo's fingertips twitched slightly as he typed out a reply.
[Daddy Douluo]: If you've read the first part of the Douluo Continent, you'll know that he's the father of the protagonist Tang San.
[Daddy Douluo]: Tang Hao, titled Clear Sky, level 95 Super Douluo, Martial Soul Clear Sky Hammer, possesses a Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring.
[Bingbing]: Titled Douluo with Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring?
[Heavenly Snow Woman]:...
[Daddy Douluo]: Sister Eastern Emperor crippled one of his arms and one of his legs, causing him to regress twenty levels of Soul Power. Now, he is not even as good as a Soul Douluo.
This statement caused an uproar in the group chat.
[Mother Tyrannosaurus]: Holy crap!!!
[Little Witch]: Oh my god! A-Qing, your Master is too powerful! That's Clear Sky Douluo!!!
[Big-Breasted Kitty]: A-Qing, just how strong is your Master?
[Green Green Grass]: Well done!
Deep within the Star Dou Great Forest Blue Silver Forest Secret Realm.
The clear lake water rippled with tiny, sparkling waves.
Ah Yin sat on the grass by the lake.
The Blue Silver Grass spread along the lake water, covering the entire lake shore.
Her fingertips landed on the Chat Group panel.
Her fingertips trembled slightly when she saw the name Tang Hao.
She took a deep breath, and the Blue Silver Grass swirling around her fingertips returned to its steady state.
Let bygones be bygones.
Now, all she needs is to be back with A-Qing.
The messages in the group are still being reorganized.
[Daddy Douluo]: To be honest, I've never seen my Master Master full strength.
[Daddy Douluo]: I always thought Tang Hao was behind me and might scheme against me at any time, so I casually brought up Tang Hao's matter. I never expected it to end like this.
Inside the Heaven Dou Crown Prince's residence.
Qian Renxue's face darkened considerably.
She stared intently at the Chat Group interface.
From the moment Lin Qingmo revealed the news that Tang Hao had been crippled, to his casual remark that his Master was about to take action against the Single Attribute Four Clans, it was clear that he had been making a move.
She read every single word carefully.
Haotian Douluo Tang Hao.
She had heard this name since she was a child.
He is a ruthless character that the Spirit Hall has wanted to eliminate for many years, but has never been able to.
A level 95 Super Douluo, possessing the Clear Sky Hammer, the strongest Tool Martial Soul on the continent, and carrying Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring.
The Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer of the Clear Sky Hammer, along with the Clear Sky Sect's supreme Clear Sky Ultimate Technique, are enough to make any Titled Douluo wary.
But he was such a great figure.
Unbeknownst to him, Lin Qingmo's mysterious Master had crippled one of his arms and one of his legs, and even caused his Soul Power to drop by twenty levels.
This means that the person who made the move was at least level 95 or higher!
It could even be a level 97 or 98 Titled Douluo.
Throughout the entire continent, there are only a handful of Titled Douluo above level 97.
"Who exactly is this suddenly appearing ' Eastern Emperor Douluo '?"
Qian Renxue gripped the teacup tightly, her knuckles turning white.
The turmoil that surged in my heart lingered for Jiujiu.
