She had broken through!
Su Yu sensed Qian Renxue's Spirit King aura from inside.
"She finally broke through."
Qian Renxue pushed open the door, looking as though she had been reborn.
"Xiao Yu, I broke through! The power of your Immortal Herb is incredible."
Qian Renxue was overjoyed.
For the first time, Qian Renxue understood why this kind of grass was called an Immortal Herb.
It was hundreds of times more powerful than ordinary medicinal herbs and Spirit Herbs.
"Xiao Yu, aren't you going to congratulate your sister?"
Seeing Su Yu remain unmoved and so indifferent, Qian Renxue felt somewhat disappointed.
"Congratulate you for what? It was bound to happen sooner or later." Su Yu was unconcerned.
"Xiao Yu, haven't you noticed that your sister has changed?" Qian Renxue asked with an excited smile.
"Changed? How? Has your skin gotten thicker?" Su Yu teased.
"You're the one with thick skin. Take a good look. Isn't your sister beautiful?"
Qian Renxue huffed and ordered Su Yu to take a proper look.
Otherwise, she would ignore him.
Su Yu examined her carefully. Qian Renxue's already peerless face had become even more luminous, her jade-like skin translucent and delicate. The faint chill around her had faded, replaced by a soft glow. Her brows and eyes had become even more radiant and noble, while her angelic bearing had grown several degrees stronger.
"You have become quite a bit prettier. It must be the Immortal Herb's doing."
Su Yu gave her a perfunctory response.
"Huh? That's it?" Qian Renxue pouted in dissatisfaction.
"What else should I say?" Su Yu laughed.
"You little brat, aren't you afraid you'll never find a girlfriend if you're this dismissive toward girls?"
Qian Renxue felt stifled inside and could not help complaining.
"I'm not worried about girlfriends. I'm this handsome, so naturally there will be people who like me."
His sister was narcissistic, so it was not too much for her younger brother to be narcissistic too, was it?
Qian Renxue was speechless. "Narcissist."
"Thanks for the compliment."
Watching the shameless Su Yu, Qian Renxue felt her head begin to ache.
Azure Luan Douluo sat in a tree, watching the siblings bicker without end, and shook his head helplessly.
"Xiao Xue, it's time to get down to business. I'll take you to obtain your fifth soul ring."
Azure Luan Douluo jumped down from the tree and interrupted their conversation.
"Alright, Third Grandpa."
Qian Renxue answered, then looked at Su Yu and decided not to nitpick with this brat.
She had to act like an older sister. She could not seem petty over just a few words.
"Xiao Yu, are you coming?" Azure Luan Douluo asked Su Yu.
Su Yu waved his hand. "I'm not going. You two go ahead."
He still needed to rest.
The moment he finished speaking, Qian Renxue forcibly dragged him away.
"Not going? That's not up to you!"
"Your sister has broken through to Spirit King. You're one of the people responsible, so you have to come."
Qian Renxue directly pulled Su Yu into the carriage.
"This is coercion."
Su Yu protested.
"So what if it is? If you've got the ability, resist!" Qian Renxue teased. "If you don't have the ability, then sit still and behave."
Azure Luan Douluo shook his head helplessly and boarded the carriage as well.
They then headed for the Star Dou Great Forest.
A day and a half later, they successfully arrived at the Star Dou Great Forest.
After getting out of the carriage, Azure Luan Douluo took out a piece of golden Whale Rubber from his Storage Soul Tool.
"Xiao Xue, this is the Whale Rubber Big Brother ordered prepared. He wants you to consume it before absorbing your soul ring."
Qian Renxue accepted the Whale Rubber. "Third Grandpa, why does this Whale Rubber look different from the kind I've seen?"
"What an idiot. This is fifty-thousand-year-quality Whale Rubber, unlike the ordinary kind. Its effects are better. After lurking around for so long, has Sister's brain rusted over?" Su Yu seized the chance to mock her first.
"Xiao Yu, I think you're asking for a beating. But I won't argue with you right now."
Qian Renxue glared at Su Yu.
This was outrageous. He actually dared provoke her like this.
Once I absorb my fifth soul ring, let's see whether your backside blooms.
Qian Renxue temporarily swallowed her anger, ignored Su Yu, put the Whale Rubber into her mouth, and began absorbing and refining it.
"Xiao Yu, aren't you afraid Xiao Xue will settle the score with you afterward?"
Azure Luan was very curious.
What gave Su Yu the courage to be so bold?
"Grandpa Azure Luan, I'm not afraid. Besides, if I were really afraid, I wouldn't have come to Heaven Dou City."
Su Yu grinned.
"True. But I have something to tell you. The Spirit Hall Academy team has gained the granddaughter of one of the Worshippers," Azure Luan Douluo said.
"A granddaughter?" Su Yu froze. "Who? Which grandpa's granddaughter? I haven't heard any of them mention her in the past six years."
In six years, he really had not heard of this.
Had she been hidden that well?
Seeing how curious Su Yu was, Azure Luan Douluo smiled. "She's Second Brother's granddaughter. He had arranged for her to train outside before, and she only recently returned, so you didn't know."
"Grandpa Golden Crocodile's granddaughter?"
Su Yu was rather surprised.
"Then what's her name?"
Azure Luan Douluo said, "Her name is Tian Yue. She inherited Second Brother's Golden Crocodile King Martial Soul and has excellent talent. She will represent the team's defensive Soul Masters."
The Golden Crocodile King's defense was exceptionally formidable.
With a teammate like that beside them, they could attack without restraint.
"Tian Yue. Second Grandpa really hid her well."
If Golden Crocodile Douluo's granddaughter was coming here,
then her talent certainly would not be poor. With the enhancement of Whale Rubber, her physique and bones would surely be several times stronger than Golden Crocodile Douluo's had been back then.
"Second Brother never mentioned it. And as far as I know, he plans to have Tian Yue come to Heaven Dou City and study under you," Azure Luan Douluo added.
"Huh? Grandpa Golden Crocodile is really willing to send his own granddaughter over. Isn't he afraid I'll lead her astray?" Su Yu spread his hands, feeling that Golden Crocodile Douluo was truly broad-minded.
"If you really can lead her astray, that would be a skill in itself. I don't know what Tian Yue's temperament is like. I haven't met her much either."
Azure Luan Douluo only knew the general situation, not the details, so he could not say much.
If Tian Yue was obedient, that would naturally be best.
"We'll talk about it when Tian Yue arrives."
For the moment, Su Yu did not concern himself with Tian Yue.
Once she arrived, he would personally teach her properly. If she was the obedient type, that would naturally be best.
If she was disobedient, then he would use methods suited for disobedient people to teach her.
After a while, Qian Renxue finished absorbing the Whale Rubber's energy. She slowly opened her eyes and let out a long breath, discovering that she was covered in sweat.
Fifty-thousand-year Whale Rubber was truly terrifying.
This was even processed Whale Rubber.
If it had not been processed, would she have been able to endure it?
It could not possibly have left her unable to sort things out, could it?
"Stupid Sister, doesn't it feel great?"
Qian Renxue gave a soft snort. "It's so-so."
"But the effects really are amazing. My physique and bones have both been strengthened significantly."
Whale Rubber really was a good thing. Fifty-thousand-year Whale Rubber alone was already this powerful, so what would happen if she consumed hundred-thousand-year Whale Rubber?
She did not even dare imagine it.
"Still trying to act tough!"
Su Yu spread his hands. Angel Miss was a little tsundere after all.
Next, the three continued deeper into the Star Dou Great Forest, searching for a ten-thousand-year Spirit Beast with sacred and light attributes.
