The Three Women's Choice

To imitate others and end up even stronger than them.

Qian Renxue no longer knew how to describe the power of this Spirit.

Moreover, what was most terrifying was that when Ye Xuan dealt with Chrysanthemum Douluo and the others, he hadn't even used his Spirit.

If Ye Xuan's Spirit were to grow in the future, what level of strength would he reach?

Qian Renxue had already realized the importance of Ye Xuan.

With a powerhouse like him, if he were to provide support, anything could be accomplished.

If he were an opponent, then everything would turn into vanity.

At the same time.

Dugu Bo also temporarily left Prince Xuexing's residence.

Since Prince Xuexing still needed to find another opportunity, Dugu Bo headed back to his own residence in Tiandou City for the time being.

After leaving the prince's residence, Dugu Yan hurriedly said to Dugu Bo, "Grandfather, do not provoke that Ye Xuan from today. Even if Prince Xuexing asks you to help him, do not go in the future."

"What is it? You know that kid? You seem to have been restless all day today," Dugu Bo asked with some curiosity.

In his impression, his granddaughter was close to that kid from the Jade Family.

Could it be that she had some connection with this kid from today?

"I know him, and I have indeed been restless today because I am worried about Grandfather provoking that person," Dugu Yan said with deep emotion.

"Oh? You mean to say that this Ye Xuan kid, a level 40 Spirit Elder, is someone I cannot provoke?"

Dugu Bo had naturally noticed Ye Xuan's extraordinary nature today; otherwise, he wouldn't have agreed to Prince Xuexing's request to hold off on taking action.

But now that his own granddaughter was boosting someone else's morale and dampening his own, he naturally had to act a bit arrogant.

"He is no mere Spirit Elder; he must be disguising his strength. Although I don't understand his purpose, I saw him back in Soto City. I wanted to tell you about this after I returned, but I never had the chance," Dugu Yan said.

"Oh? What exactly did he do in Soto City? To make you so afraid, Yanzi?" Dugu Bo's interest was piqued.

"At the time, we had just finished our match and were resting..."

Dugu Yan then recounted the battle between Ye Xuan, Chrysanthemum Douluo, and Ghost Douluo.

After listening.

Dugu Bo's entire face stiffened.

He felt a lingering fear.

If he hadn't held back today, wouldn't he have provoked a terrifying existence?

Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo—he was no match for either of them, let alone both.

Yet Ye Xuan had actually been able to defeat them, and it was possible he had even defeated the two of them while they were using their Spirit Fusion Skill.

"Yanzi, this information is too important to me. Rest assured, if Prince Xuexing comes to me later to deal with Ye Xuan, I will refuse him. However, since he has done me a favor, I will inform him of Ye Xuan's true strength when the time comes. I hope he knows when to retreat!" Dugu Bo sighed deeply.

He was already at such an advanced age, having cultivated for many years, yet he found it difficult to break through his bottleneck.

And that Ye Xuan?

He looked to be only fifteen years old, yet he possessed such terrifying strength. Truly, comparing oneself to others only leads to frustration.

After returning to his small courtyard, Ye Xuan informed Xiao Wu and the others about what Qin Ming had told him.

However, the three of them gave an unexpectedly unanimous answer.

They did not want to join any more academies.

As for cultivation, they were currently training under Ye Xuan's guidance, and they didn't feel that the teachers at those academies could compare to him.

Since they weren't likely to learn anything new, yet would have to be restricted by school rules, no one would be willing to do such a thing.

Ye Xuan naturally respected their choice. From a selfish perspective, he didn't want them to go to the Royal Academy either.

But if they had wanted to go, Ye Xuan would have let them.

Regardless, this was a good thing for them for now.

After resting for the night.

The next day.

Ye Xuan prepared to go find Dugu Bo himself.

Dugu Bo hadn't made a move yesterday, which surprised Ye Xuan.

But Ye Xuan didn't want to wait for the other party to make a move. Since Prince Xuexing had brought him here, he would go find him and let him make a choice.

Ye Xuan wanted to go to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well; after all, that was the place where the Dragon King had fallen.

Ye Xuan wanted to challenge the underlying rules of this world; to feel and understand them would be exceptionally helpful.

He had a feeling now that the opportunity to break his next shackle was approaching.

The last time it was the avatar of the Asura God; he didn't know what it would be this time, so he had to prepare as soon as possible.

Just as he was about to step out, a guest arrived.

This guest had specifically asked for him by name.

The visitor claimed to have been sent by Prince Xuexing, who wished to have a private meeting with him.

This caught Ye Xuan by surprise; Prince Xuexing had only just met with him last night, so why did he want to see him again today?

Could it be that he intended to recruit him?

What if he refused?

Would he strike at him directly?

"Please, lead the way."

Ye Xuan saw no reason to refuse and simply followed the man.

He boarded the visitor's carriage, and eventually, the man brought him to a restaurant and ushered him into a private room upstairs.

Upon entering the room, Ye Xuan saw not only Prince Xuexing but also Poison Douluo.

Hmm? This old poison-user is here too. Could it be that they really intend to poach me, and if that fails, poison me to death? Ye Xuan felt a spark of anticipation.

It was tiresome when people constantly provoked him.

But it was also boring if no one dared to cross him.

When Prince Xuexing and his companion saw Ye Xuan, the Prince hurriedly greeted him with a smile.

"Young Master Ye, you've finally arrived. Please, take a seat."

After Prince Xuexing invited Ye Xuan to sit, Poison Douluo also offered a polite greeting.

"Young Master Ye, we meet again."

"Your Highness, I wonder why you summoned me here? And why choose this restaurant instead of meeting at your estate?" Ye Xuan asked bluntly.

Prince Xuexing smiled broadly and replied, "Young Master Ye, I simply wish to make your acquaintance. As for why I chose this restaurant, it happens to be one of my properties. They have a few signature dishes here, and I have already instructed the staff to prepare them; they will be served shortly."

"Make friends? Because of what happened yesterday?"

Ye Xuan asked again.

He asked so directly because he wanted to see the truth in Prince Xuexing's eyes.

"That is not the case. It is because Poison Douluo shared an interesting piece of news with me this morning. I heard that when you were in Soto City, you defeated two elders of Spirit Hall. You should know that Spirit Hall is full of wild ambition and has been secretly encroaching upon our Heaven Dou Empire. Since you are an enemy of Spirit Hall, you are a friend of mine, Prince Xuexing."

Prince Xuexing spoke with great candor, for he was being sincere at that moment.

This information had even made him wonder if he had misjudged a good man.

After all, if the Crown Prince was truly the person he suspected him to be, why would he recruit an enemy of Spirit Hall?
