The temptation of becoming a Titled Douluo
Since you can't refuse, then see what kind of conditions the other party can offer.
"I have a question, and if I may be so bold as to ask you, senior, which faction do you belong to? Are you from the Spirit Hall, or some other reclusive major sect?"
As a prominent figure in the Soul Master World, Meng Shu was aware of the Titled Douluo of the Upper Three Sects.
The young man before them was clearly not Titled Douluo from any of the Upper Three Sects; he was a complete stranger. If he truly came from a major sect, it must be a reclusive one.
But Ling Han shook his head.
"I don't belong to any faction; I'm just a free spirit. Now that I have some strength, I want to establish my own sect and build my own legacy."
Upon hearing this, Meng Shu felt somewhat disappointed.
If he is truly a peerless prodigy from some Secluded Great Sect, then joining him would indeed bring immense benefits.
But this is actually a sect that has just started out.
He just wanted to find a way to politely refuse Ling Han, so that he could save his own life without harming his family.
Ling Han saw through Meng Shu's thoughts.
"I know what you're worried about. Don't worry, although my sect is just starting out, its starting point is already a finish line that most sects can't even reach."
Meng Shu was very curious about the meaning behind these words.
"Without going into too much detail, I'll just tell you the simplest and clearest information: this sect, which hasn't even been established yet, already has no fewer than three powerhouses at the Titled Douluo level."
No fewer than three; this single sentence is enough to prove how high Ling Han's sect's starting point was.
On Ling Han's side now, he himself is a powerful expert with the combat strength of a Limit Douluo, plus Poison Douluo Dugu Bo, Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan, and Ghost Douluo Gui Mei, which already makes more than three.
Moreover, given Ling Han's mastery of Alchemist Grandmaster, there will only be more Titled Douluo in the future.
Putting everything else aside, with Yang Wudi's talent and the right Medicinal Pill, breaking through to the Titled Douluo is definitely within reach.
Furthermore, the heads of the Wind, Water, and Fire Clans are all Soul Douluo with decent talent. With the Medicinal Pill refined by Ling Han, Alchemist Grandmaster, achieving the rank of low-level Titled Douluo is not difficult.
Among the younger generation, there are quite a few with the potential to break through to the Titled Douluo level.
Given time, the number of Titled Douluo in the sect established by Ling Han may even surpass that of the Spirit Hall.
After hearing Ling Han's words, Meng Shu was visibly stunned for a moment.
In Ling Han's words, the Titled Douluo seemed to be as common as free cabbage.
Seeing that Meng Shu was already wavering, Ling Han immediately followed up with a trump card.
"I know that the information I give you about the sect is all fabricated, but I'm going to offer you a condition you can't refuse..."
"As long as you join my faction, I guarantee you will be able to advance to the Titled Douluo in the future."
Break through the allure of becoming Titled Douluo.
With such a temptation before them, Meng Shu could not possibly refuse.
He is now a high-level Soul Douluo, and naturally hopes to go further and reach the level of Titled Douluo in his lifetime, which would bring glory to his ancestors and fulfill a long-cherished wish.
Unfortunately, Meng Shu is now quite old, and according to his own thinking, he has no hope of breaking through to the Titled Douluo level in this lifetime.
But now, this powerful young man before him actually claimed he could help him break through to the Titled Douluo. How could Meng Shu not be tempted?
"Is what you say true, senior?"
Ling Han smiled and said, "I wouldn't bother deceiving a weakling like you."
Before Meng Shu could reply, a Jade Bottle appeared in Ling Han's hand.
Once the bottle was opened, a refreshing fragrance instantly filled the entire room.
Two Medicinal Pill were poured out of the bottle and lay in Ling Han's palm.
Meng Shu stared at the Medicinal Pill, his eyes wide with disbelief.
Just the aroma of the elixir emanating from it, just one whiff, gave him a feeling of his bottleneck loosening.
These two Medicinal Pill are nothing special; they were just casually made by Ling Han. He added a tiny bit of scraps of Immortal Herb, so they are slightly more effective than ordinary Medicinal Pill.
Combined with the alchemy skills of Alchemist Grandmaster Ling Han, the quality is also among the best.
"If you're willing, these two Medicinal Pill are a small gift for you and your husband. While they won't directly help you break through to the Titled Douluo, they'll be enough to loosen your bottleneck."
Chao Tianxiang looked at the Medicinal Pill, her eyes filled with longing.
Like Meng Shu, she is now quite old.
Chao Tianxiang is currently only at the Soul Emperor realm, and it will be difficult for her to even break through to the Soul Saint in this lifetime.
Just now, after smelling the fragrance of the Medicinal Pill, I actually felt like I was about to break through to a higher level.
If she could take this Medicinal Pill, she had a premonition that she could quickly break through to the Soul Saint in the next few years, and even increase her potential!
So, Chao Tianxiang secretly pinched Meng Shu's finger.
The deep affection between the elderly couple, spanning decades, made Meng Shu instantly understand the meaning of "Chao Tianxiang).
This senior in front of me is so generous; siding with him seems like a good choice indeed.
Having made up his mind, Meng Shu immediately pulled Chao Tianxiang aside, bowed again, and said, "Meng Shu greets the Sect Master!"
Decisive and straightforward—that's the quality a seasoned veteran in the Soul Master World should possess.
Ling Han nodded in satisfaction and casually tossed two Medicinal Pill to Meng Shu.
"Dragon Duke, you have great courage. However, my sect has not yet been established. I am aware of the location of your clan. Some time before the sect is fully established, I will notify you to relocate your entire clan."
Meng Shu put away the Medicinal Pill, gratefully cupping his hands and saying, "I will obey the Sect Master's orders!"
Then, Meng Shu asked hesitantly, "I still don't know the Sect Master's honorable name?"
"I, Ling Han, am titled Ice Emperor."
After thanking him again, Meng Shu hurriedly left with Chao Tianxiang.
They needed to hurry back, take the Medicinal Pill, and improve their cultivation.
After the Dragon Duke and Snake Granny left, Light Feather Douluo was unhappy.
"You rascal, you give me nothing but Tanghulu and other childish treats every day, but you give others such wonderful Medicinal Pill?"
Ling Han rolled his eyes at him speechlessly. "They've agreed to join my faction. If you're willing to leave the Worship Hall and join my faction, I'll guarantee you a promotion all the way to Level 97, how about that?"
Upon hearing this, Guang Ling quickly shook his head. "No, no, my brothers and I are like brothers, not one of us can be missing!"
Ling Han naturally knew he wouldn't agree, and he hadn't held out any hope for it.
Given his relationship with Qian Renxue, it doesn't really matter whether the other retainers join his faction or not.
"Alright, it's getting late. Stop wandering around the Heaven Dou Empire all day. What if someone knows you?"
The Light Feather Douluo nonchalantly rubbed his nose. "So what if we know each other? I'm a dignified Elder of the Worship Hall, what's wrong with me taking a stroll? Anyone who has a problem with that, I'll shoot them dead with one arrow!"
"You're so carefree."
"That's right! Don't you know who I am? I am the handsome, dashing, elegant, and debonair Light Feather Douluo!"
Ling Han was speechless.
Then, he kicked the Light Feather Douluo away.
It truly flew in a physical sense.
