Qian Renxue Comes Calling (Please Bookmark!)

In She Long's view, the Grand Consecrate and Second Consecrate of Spirit Hall possessed transcendent strength—one was Rank 99, the other Rank 98.

And his young mistress was the Grand Consecrate's only granddaughter. With such a background, there was absolutely no need for her to bow and personally visit a child.

"First, we are not representing Spirit Hall this time, only ourselves. Second, the guard by his side is a Rank 97 Title Douluo."

"The strongest person in his faction is certainly not merely Rank 97. Under such circumstances, it is entirely worth paying him a personal visit." Qian Renxue turned back, her eyes filled with calculation.

In her opinion, even if they could not recruit him, simply establishing friendly relations would still be hugely worthwhile.

She Long only half understood, but he understood one thing: his young mistress had already decided to visit that child in person. It was no longer his place to dissuade her, so he could only bow and withdraw to prepare generous gifts.

Elsewhere, Lu Li pondered for a long time before finally figuring out why Qian Renxue had set her sights on him.

He had beaten Ning Fengzhi into that state, and Ning Fengzhi was Qian Renxue's teacher. More importantly, the place Chen Xin had taken Ning Fengzhi to escape to was Heaven Dou Palace.

Qian Renxue had almost certainly learned of his existence from Ning Fengzhi.

"That damned Ning Fengzhi. What the hell was wrong with you at the auction house? Did I sleep with your mother or your daughter?"

"And if I did, you had Chen Xin come at me with a sword!"

Lu Li did not think highly of Ning Fengzhi.

The Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect was an auxiliary-type sect, and Ning Fengzhi himself could never break through Rank 80 in his lifetime because of the flaws in his Martial Soul.

As an auxiliary-type sect, shouldn't they have kept a low profile?

Even with Chen Xin and Gu Rong, two Title Douluo, in the sect, they should not have acted so recklessly!

They kept jumping back and forth between the Heaven Dou Empire and Spirit Hall.

Anyone who did not know better would have thought Ning Fengzhi was some Rank 99 Title Douluo of the assault type.

With how much he stood out, it was no wonder Bibi Dong later listed him as a target of the Soul Hunting Operation.

If he had been even a little less reckless, then given the support abilities of the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda, Spirit Hall would most likely have tried to recruit them rather than destroy them outright.

"And Qian Renxue too—the number one genius on the continent, yet she went off to become an undercover agent!"

Lu Li seriously suspected that Qian Renxue's brain did not work and that her cerebellum had failed to develop!

Her family had a god's trial waiting for her. If she had cultivated steadily, then with her talent and the resources of the Hall of Consecrates, she would have had a very high chance of breaking through to Title Douluo within twenty years—and twenty years was a conservative estimate.

"Break through to Title Douluo, undergo the god's trial, then put the Angelic Sacred Sword to Bibi Dong's throat. Wouldn't that prove herself?"

Qian Renxue wanted to prove herself before Bibi Dong, so she ran off to the Heaven Dou Empire, determined to carry out the plan to steal the throne.

All that could be said was that she was utterly stupid!

"This young master doesn't step outside his front gate or even his inner gate. Whoever wants to deal with Qian Renxue can go do it."

Lu Li ate the last grape in his hand, then rose and headed toward his room.

The next morning, while Lu Li was still asleep, Dragon One's voice sounded beside his ear.

"Master, that Title Douluo from the other day has come. There are three of them in total. Another is also a Title Douluo, while the last is a Soul King."

Dragon One repeated himself several times, practically sounding an alarm.

Lu Li groggily opened his eyes, his brow full of irritation.

"How did that woman find this place?"

Although Lu Li truly did not want anything to do with Qian Renxue right now, she had come all the way to his door. He did not know how she had discovered this place, but it would be somewhat rude if he still refused to see her.

Of course, that definitely was not because Dragon One had told him that Stingray and She Long were carrying a pile of gifts.

"Dragon One, bring them in after one minute."

One minute was enough for Lu Li to brush his teeth and wash his face.

Outside the small courtyard stood three figures.

Behind Qian Renxue, Stingray and She Long held a heap of gifts in their arms, so many that She Long seemed ready to leap out from behind them.

As for why they did not put them into storage soul tools, naturally, carrying them this way made them seem more sincere.

Once they met him, Stingray and She Long could simply set that huge pile of gifts on the ground. How impressive would that be!

This time, Qian Renxue had not come to meet Lu Li in Xue Qinghe's appearance.

There was no point in doing that. What if that Rank 97 Title Douluo saw through her disguise? How awkward would that be?

Of course, it would be better if he could not see through it, but what if he could?

"Young Mistress, we've been standing here for ten minutes already, and that man has shown no sign of moving."

Stingray could not help complaining. As a dignified Title Douluo, when had he ever been made to wait for someone? It was always others waiting for him.

"The three of us have fully released our auras. That Title Douluo expert can definitely sense us, yet despite that, he has shown no reaction at all. This is far too insulting!"

She Long had a more fiery temper than Stingray. After waiting for ten minutes, he was nearly at the edge of erupting.

Just as Qian Renxue was about to speak, the tightly shut gate before them creaked open from within.

Dragon One appeared before the three of them, along with the faint but unmistakable pressure radiating from his body.

"Please come in, the three of you."

The moment Dragon One appeared, She Long's rising fury immediately deflated.

He could not beat him. He truly could not beat him.

Just the pressure Dragon One could release made his Martial Soul tremble faintly. If they truly fought, would he not be battered black and blue?

"Both of them are Rank 97, yet the pressure this man gives me is far greater than Third Grandfather's."

Qian Renxue's expression was not much better. Enduring the pressure emanating from Dragon One, she barely forced out a smile.

"Thank you."

Dragon One did not respond. His task was merely to come and inform them. Now that he had done so, he needed to return to Lu Li's side.

A ripple of soul power appeared, and in the next instant, Dragon One vanished from before Qian Renxue and the other two.

Looking at the open gate, the oppressive feeling suddenly disappeared, and Qian Renxue's group could not help letting out a breath.

It was too terrifying. Even when facing those extraordinarily powerful Consecrates, they had never felt so suffocated.

"Let's go."

Qian Renxue spoke and stepped inside first, while Stingray and She Long hurriedly followed behind her.

After the three entered the courtyard, the gate behind them abruptly slammed shut.

The layout of the courtyard Dugu Bo had given Lu Li was rather simple, but it was located in the heart of Heaven Dou City, very close to the imperial palace. As such, it was worth more than Dugu Bo's own residence.

After crossing the courtyard, they saw a main hall ahead. Its doors stood wide open, and when Qian Renxue's group looked inside, they could vaguely make out Lu Li seated in the seat of honor.
