Qian Xunji's Ambition

Upon seeing those three Soul Bones, Yue Guan's eyes instantly brightened.

These were Soul Bones, ten-thousand-year Soul Bones.

Although he knew that for such a great contribution, the Pope would surely reward him heavily, when the Soul Bones were actually placed before his eyes, Yue Guan still felt a sense of unreality.

Qian Xunji then introduced the two Soul Bones that were compatible with him, allowing him to make a choice.

For a moment, Yue Guan was tangled in indecision.

Whether it was the 40,000-year plant-type left leg bone or the 38,000-year Diamond Tiger right arm bone, he wanted both.

But Yue Guan also knew that out of the two Soul Bones, he could only choose one.

After hesitating for a moment, Yue Guan chose the left leg bone with the higher age.

This Soul Bone could grant him a healing-type soul skill, which could not only help him heal himself but also assist others.

In this way, whether Old Ghost was injured or Xiao Dong had a scrape or a bump in the future, he would be able to provide help and treatment.

"This left leg bone belongs to you now. As for the right arm bone, I will keep it for the time being; if you make another great contribution in the future, it will still be yours."

Seeing Yue Guan accept the Soul Bone and witness his excitement and heartfelt, sincere gratitude, Qian Xunji was quite satisfied.

"Gui Mei, this is for you!"

Qian Xunji then gave the other Soul Bone to Gui Mei.

"This... I have one too!"

This was something Gui Mei had never expected.

This time, the contribution had been reported in Yue Guan's name; under normal circumstances, it had nothing to do with him.

He never imagined the Pope would be so generous.

"Many thanks, Your Holiness!"

After hearing the Pope explain the function of that Soul Bone, Gui Mei did not hesitate in the slightest and tucked the Soul Bone away.

With this Soul Bone, his greatest weakness would be compensated.

"This is... Father has returned!"

Qian Xunji wanted to say more, but upon sensing a familiar aura approaching Martial Soul Hall, she became instantly excited and cast all other thoughts and ideas aside.

After briefly instructing Bibi Dong, Qian Xunji quickly headed toward the Worship Hall.

"Xiao Dong, this Soul Bone..."

After Qian Xunji left, Yue Guan toyed with the Soul Bone in his hand. Although he was very reluctant to part with it, he knew that this contribution had been secured for them by Xiao Dong.

It would be best if the Soul Bone belonged to Xiao Dong.

"Yue Guan, keep your Soul Bone. Xiao Dong's attributes are closer to mine; it is obvious that this Soul Bone was prepared for him."

Just as Yue Guan was still struggling, Gui Mei blocked his move.

Instead, Gui Mei took out his own Soul Bone for Bibi Dong.

In Gui Mei's view, he had made no real contribution in this matter and should not have received such a reward.

After a moment of reflection, Gui Mei understood the Pope's intention.

This was a pretext of rewarding him to transfer the Soul Bone to Bibi Dong.

It was to shut the mouths of others.

"Uncle Yue Guan, Uncle Gui Mei, so this is a Soul Bone. It's a pity it's only a ten-thousand-year Soul Bone; I really don't have much interest in it."

"You two uncles should fuse with the Soul Bones sooner rather than later and strive to reach Title Douluo as soon as possible. When I need soul rings, you can take me to hunt Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts."

"I've heard that every Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast must produce a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Bone, right?"

"My goal is to be fully equipped with Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Bones!"

Bibi Dong wore an expression of ignorance regarding the immensity of heaven and earth, speaking arrogant words.

Faced with a Soul Bone, could he not be tempted?

He was very tempted.

Especially the Soul Bone possessed by Gui Mei; the moment it was taken out, he felt his Martial Soul stirring.

If nothing else, as long as he fused with this Soul Bone, the age of his third soul ring could be further improved.

But he forcibly suppressed this impulse.

He intended to add Hundred-Thousand-Year soul rings to his second Martial Soul entirely.

Would he be lacking Soul Bones by then?

Moreover, to be honest, he really didn't look down on this Soul Bone.

With the backing of Martial Soul Hall, Twin Martial Souls, Innate Full Soul Power, and having been reborn early in this era, Bibi Dong was not in a hurry.

With his own talent, background, and the resources available to him, Bibi Dong was confident he could become a Title Douluo earlier than in the original work.

At present, there was absolutely no need to fuse with a Soul Bone of less than 50,000 years just for these minor improvements.

"This..."

"Very well, Xiao Dong. Uncle will certainly cultivate diligently and become a Title Douluo as soon as possible."

"In the future, I will take you to hunt a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast for your soul ring."

Hearing Bibi Dong speak such words, Yue Guan knew this was merely a pretext Xiao Dong had concocted to spare them from feeling embarrassed about accepting the soul bone.

Nevertheless, he took note of today's events.

He would cultivate hard from now on, become a Title Douluo as early as possible, and would surely fulfill what Xiao Dong desired.

Was it not just a full set of Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bones?

If they gave the two brothers some time, it was entirely possible.

Having obtained ten-thousand-year soul bones that were perfectly compatible with them, both Yue Guan and Gui Mei were filled with confidence regarding their futures.

Meanwhile, on Qian Xunji's side.

She had found her father.

When she saw her father, Qian Daoliu, return having captured a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast alive, her eyes immediately lit up.

"Xunji, the Whale Rubber from this Hundred-Thousand-Year Tiger Whale will certainly replenish the deficiencies in your bloodline and allow your strength to advance further."

"When that time comes, you will surely be able to initiate the God Ancestor's trials."

Qian Daoliu looked at Qian Xunji, already unable to contain his impatience.

He had made a trip to Sea God Island; though he had returned, his soul remained there.

Qian Daoliu now had only one thought: to have his daughter initiate the God Ancestor's trials, and ideally, inherit his position.

Only then could he lay down his heavy burden and head to Sea God Island to pursue his love.

Even if they could not be together forever, he could at least spend a long time by her side.

"Father, I wish to wait a while before consuming the Whale Rubber, preferably after I break through to level 80."

Faced with her father's urgency, Qian Xunji found it somewhat strange, yet she did not take it to heart.

At this moment, she had only one thought: to make her eighth soul ring a hundred-thousand-year one.

Her disciple had already proven that as long as one's physique was strong enough, one could absorb soul rings beyond the standard age limits; as for mental strength, she possessed the Angel Head Soul Bone.

Since her father had even prepared a hundred-thousand-year soul ring for her, she naturally had to give it a try.

Although this Hundred-Thousand-Year Tiger Whale was a marine creature and possessed some conflict with her martial soul, its light attribute was highly compatible.

With the timing and conditions in her favor, she was determined to take the gamble.

"Xunji, what do you mean by this?"

Qian Daoliu looked at his daughter, somewhat bewildered.

Everything was prepared, yet she had refused at this critical moment.

One had to know that capturing this Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast without cause had already violated some of his own principles.
