"The next successor of the Spirit Pagoda?"

Jiang Xiu muttered to himself, then glanced meaningfully at the Qiangu Zhangting.

The truly powerful never play the game of succession; whoever survives becomes the heir!

However, seeing that Qiangu Zhangting had no intention of acting as the "treasure-delivering boy" again, Jiang Xiu was unwilling to argue with him any longer, so he set off to leave.

It's not the right time for him to start destroying the Qiangu Family yet, and there's nothing to talk about with Qiangu Zhangting. After all, Qiangu Zhangting is far inferior to his grandfather Qiangu Dongfeng in both personality and strength, and the same goes for his temperament. It can be said that he didn't inherit any of his grandfather's qualities.

"You! You!" Seeing that Jiang Xiu ignored him, Qiangu Zhangting felt like a clown and immediately tried to follow Jiang Xiu.

But just then, a powerful voice came from the Cultivation Room.

"Zhang Ting, come back!"

Upon hearing this voice, Qiangu Zhangting froze for a moment, a hint of respect appearing in his eyes. After giving Jiang Xiu a fierce look, he turned and returned to his Cultivation Room.

Jiang Xiu's eyes narrowed as he took a deep look at the Cultivation Room.

With his Ant Emperor's extraordinary perception, he could clearly sense that although the voice was somewhat old, it contained a unique intent, which was obviously a manifestation of comprehending one's own laws and infusing them into one's entire body.

Every word and action has rhythm!

The intent contained in that voice was to Battle Heaven Fight Earth!

"Qiangu Dieting..." Jiang Xiu instantly recognized the person in the Cultivation Room. In the entire Qiangu Family, only this person had broken through to the Limit Douluo -Quasi-God realm.

"He was quite imposing, wasn't he?" Jiang Xiu couldn't help but sigh, recalling the old man's experiences.

One of the main reasons why Qiangu Dongfeng is now able to control the Spirit Pagoda is that Qiangu Dieting Qiangu Dongfeng left him a solid foundation.

This old man once bent the Golden Dragon Spear Coiling Dragon Staff Spear, a divine weapon, with the Panlong Staff, and even when the Qiangu Family was doomed, he sacrificed his own life to leave a glimmer of hope for the Qiangu Family.

He wanted to destroy the Qiangu Family, and Qiangu Dieting was arguably the most troublesome obstacle.

Even with Qiangu Dongfeng, Qiangu Zhangting, and the Purgatory Douluo Qiangu Qingfeng, Jiang Xiu felt that none of them were as difficult to deal with as Qiangu Dieting alone.

"No rush, take your time. After all, the Qiangu Dongfeng hasn't completed its mission yet." Jiang Xiu's eyes flickered, and then he casually walked away from the corridor.

Inside the Cultivation Room.

"Zhang Ting, your mind is in turmoil."

A sprightly old man looked at the Qiangu Zhangting before him and spoke earnestly.

"Great-grandfather, it's Jiang Xiu who's so infuriating! His expression clearly shows he's questioning my status as heir," Qiangu Zhangting said indignantly.

What do external affairs and material possessions matter to you? When you are strong enough and your mind is stable enough, you won't care about these things anymore. Besides, when you are strong enough, no one will dare to question you.

Ultimately, it's because you're too weak right now.

"Qiangu Dieting said slowly."

"But great-grandfather, I've already surpassed so many of my peers. Aren't I strong enough?" Qiangu Zhangting was still somewhat indignant.

Qiangu Dieting frowned slightly. Qiangu Zhangting possessed top-tier talent and was born with the best resources, yet he was now being compared to ordinary Soul Master from the outside world...

"Alas, each generation is worse than the last," Qiangu Dieting sighed inwardly.

Although Qiangu Dongfeng did not break through to the Quasi-God like him, he was able to manage the Spirit Pagoda well. However, Qiangu Zhangting's shrewdness and cultivation were far inferior to Qiangu Dongfeng's.

Inside Leng Yaozhu's office.

"Aunt Leng." Jiang Xiu pushed open the office door and thanked Leng Yaozhu.

Whether it was arranging for him to meet the Titan Snow Demon King A-Tai, or putting restrictions on the Ender Dragon in advance, everything was done with his best interests at heart.

He will have to repay such help tenfold in the future.

"Oh?" Seeing Jiang Xiu walk in, Leng Yaozhu raised her eyebrows slightly, her dark red eyes filled with surprise as she said, "Xiao Xiu, you actually succeeded!"

You see, even though she had restricted the Ender Dragon, it was still not so easy to absorb. She had thought that Jiang Xiu would give up and save it for the next time, but she didn't expect that Jiang Xiu would actually succeed.

"I have accomplished my mission, but this is also thanks to your help, Aunt Leng." Jiang Xiu slowly sat down opposite Leng Yaozhu and said earnestly.

"A fifteen-year-old Soul Saint is even stronger than that person back then..." Leng Yaozhu stared at Jiang Xiu Jiang Xiu her beautiful eyes, feeling the powerful aura emanating from him and his spirited appearance, and her heart couldn't help but flutter slightly.

"Aunt Leng, what are you looking at? Do you want me to get closer?" Jiang Xiu waved his hand, looking at Leng Yaozhu was slightly stunned.

"You're asking for it." Leng Yaozhu gave Jiang Xiu Jiang Xiu beautiful glare, swatting away his waving hand with her delicate hand, though the tips of her ears, hidden beneath her hair, turned slightly red.

"Xiao Xiu, absorbing the Ender Dragon isn't that easy, is it? With your current cultivation level, it's okay to relax a little after breaking through to Soul Saint. Cultivation requires a balance of intensity and rest; don't push yourself too hard."

Immediately, Leng Yaozhu coughed twice and gently parted her red lips to give her instructions.

"That won't do," Jiang Xiu shook his head slightly and refused.

"Hmm? Why?" Seeing Jiang Xiu reject her suggestion, Leng Yaozhu frowned slightly, puzzled.

"I still want to help Aunt Leng get rid of Zhang Geyang as soon as possible, how can I relax?" Jiang Xiu said, blinking.

Upon hearing this, Leng Yaozhu was stunned for a moment. Her slightly furrowed brows instantly relaxed, and a hint of playful reproach appeared between her brows.

"What a little devil! He's always trying to make Aunt Leng happy."

Although it was a playful scolding, Leng Yaozhu's red lips curved into a beautiful arc, making her already stunning face even more captivating.

Seeing this, Jiang Xiu shook his head and said, "No, I'm just genuinely thinking of you, Aunt Leng."

Then, Jiang Xiu pretended to understand something and asked probingly, "Could it be that Aunt Leng wants to go back on the terms she agreed to with me, which is why she made me..."

Upon hearing this, Leng Yaozhu immediately raised her delicate hand to interrupt:

"This Tower Master always keeps her word. Xiao Xiu, if you can help Aunt Leng deal with Zhang Geyang, Aunt Leng will grant you one request—any request will do."

"That's good." Jiang Xiu said with a smile.

Seeing Jiang Xiu's expression, Leng Yaozhu became interested. "It seems you're quite confident, Xiao Xiu?"

"I wouldn't say 100%, but it's at least 98%," Jiang Xiu said with a humble smile.

"Oh?" Leng Yaozhu's red lips parted, as if she had thought of something, her beautiful eyes sparkling as she said, "So Xiao Xiu, if you really succeed, what request do you want to make?"

"We'll talk about that later, we'll talk about it later," Jiang Xiu said, waving his hand.

Seeing that Jiang Xiu wouldn't say anything, Leng Yaozhu had no choice but to give up.

But for some reason, she also felt a strange sense of anticipation.

After another intense struggle, Jiang Xiu Jiang Xiu up to leave. Just as he reached the door, he heard Leng Yaozhu say softly.

"Xiao Xiu, is this potted plant really Aunt Leng alone?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xiu froze.

As if suddenly remembering something, I suddenly felt a cold sweat break out on my back.

He finally realized what he had forgotten: Ya Li had been to Leng Yaozhu's office and must have seen the potted plant.

Who knows what might happen...

Jiang Xiu forced himself to remain calm and slowly turned around, but when he saw that Leng Yaozhu Qiao's faces did not show any anger, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems he was overthinking it...

Then, Jiang Xiu said seriously, "Of course, this Phoenix Tail Butterfly Crown Flower is only for you, Aunt Leng."

"Alright, then go ahead." Leng Yaozhu smiled gently upon hearing this, then waved her hand lightly.

Ever since Ya Li left, she had been Ya Li why Yali's attitude had changed.

One thought came to mind that Jiang Xiu might have also given Ya Li a potted plant, claiming it was unique to her, which might explain Ya Li's initial feeling of disappointment.

However, after hearing Jiang Xiu's confirmation, she has given up on the idea.

Sure enough, this was something unique to her, and Ya Li's disappointment stemmed from envy.

Upon hearing that Leng Yaozhu had let him leave, Jiang Xiu immediately opened the door and ran away.

"Phew, that was close. Luckily, I learned some social skills and the ability to read people back then, otherwise I would have been exposed today."

Jiang Xiu only breathed a sigh of relief after he stepped out of the Spirit Pagoda.

Just then, Jiang Xiu's Communication Soul Tool suddenly rang.

Seeing that it was his Grandmaster, A Ruheng, calling, Jiang Xiu casually answered the call.

As soon as the call connected, A Ruheng's voice came from the other end.

"Junior Brother, terrible news has come from the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well!"
