"You're Hu Liena?"

Chen Feng emerged from the Sleeping Hall and looked at the woman before him, a trace of surprise in his eyes.

In the three years since he had transmigrated here, he had barely ever left Bibi Dong's Sleeping Hall, and he did not know anyone from Spirit Hall.

But this woman's outfit was far too distinctive.

A black robe draped over her, covering her entire body.

Beneath it, she wore a little pink tank top and extremely short pink hot pants.

She had bewitching foxlike eyes, and her long black hair was tied behind her with a ribbon.

In the entire Douluo World, only Hu Liena, before becoming the Saintess, dressed like this.

"You know me?"

Hu Liena abruptly raised her head, a trace of surprise appearing on her delicate face.

"I heard Dongdong mention you."

Chen Feng smiled. "Lead the way."

Dongdong?

Hu Liena stumbled and nearly fell, her eyelids twitching wildly.

He called Teacher Dongdong?

And why was he staying in Teacher's Sleeping Hall?

For the past three years, people had often whispered that Teacher was keeping a man in her Sleeping Hall. Could it be this young man?

Hu Liena glanced up at him. He was certainly very handsome, but he was far too young.

He looked only eighteen or nineteen, younger than her.

Wait!

Had I seen something I shouldn't have and heard something I shouldn't have? Would Teacher kill me to silence me?

No!

I couldn't talk to him anymore. I absolutely couldn't hear anything else I shouldn't.

Hu Liena pulled her black robe tighter, turned, and walked away.

Chen Feng froze for a moment, then called, "Little fox, wait for me! I don't know the way!"

Little fox?

Hu Liena's body instantly went rigid. Fighting the urge to hit him, she covered her ears with both hands and hurried forward with her head down.

One ahead and one behind, one fleeing and one chasing, the two soon reached the entrance to the Worship Hall.

Hu Liena stopped, straightened her robe, and prepared to enter.

Chen Feng rushed up, grabbed her hand, and yanked her back.

Caught completely off guard, Hu Liena fell into Chen Feng's arms, her proud, towering peaks pressing hard against his chest.

"Hiss!"

Feeling that exquisite softness, Chen Feng could not help sucking in a sharp breath.

"What are you doing?"

She snapped in a low voice, her pretty face scarlet.

In all her life, this was her first time having such intimate contact with a man.

And he was a man whose relationship with Teacher was murky at that.

She wanted to rebuke him loudly, yet feared Teacher would discover them, and her heartbeat inexplicably quickened.

"Don't go in yet."

Chen Feng reluctantly released Hu Liena, then clung to the doorway and poked half his head out to peek inside.

Hu Liena frowned slightly. After a moment's hesitation, she also stepped forward and poked half her head out to look.

In the square before the Worship Hall, more than a dozen people stood divided into two camps.

On one side was the Supreme Pontiff's faction, led by Teacher, with Chrysanthemum Douluo, Ghost Douluo, and seven other ordinary elders standing behind her.

On the other was the Worship Hall's faction, led by the Great Enshrined, with the other six enshrined standing behind him.

"Strange. Why are all the Titled Douluo here?"

Hu Liena's eyes filled with bewilderment.

And judging by the drawn-swords-and-bent-bows tension between the two sides, they looked ready to fight.

Chen Feng said nothing. He silently pulled his head back, turned, and walked away.

This lineup was far too frightening.

Hu Liena hurried after him, seized Chen Feng's hand, and stared at him with her foxlike eyes. "Teacher told me to bring you inside. You can't leave."

Chen Feng shook his head repeatedly. "I'm not going. I'm afraid the Great Enshrined will slap me dead."

"Why would the Great Enshrined hit you?"

Hu Liena's face was full of confusion.

Suddenly, her eyes went wide, and she lowered her voice. "Did something really happen between you and Teacher? And then the Great Enshrined found out?"

Chen Feng was speechless. Her imagination was far too rich.

"Bibi Dong, you want me to summon Xiao Xue back to get married?"

Just then, an angry demand came from within the Worship Hall.

Hu Liena froze. All she knew was that Qian Renxue had gone out to gain experience and had not returned for many years.

Now Teacher actually wanted the Great Enshrined to summon Qian Renxue back to get married? To whom?

Wait!

Hu Liena suddenly looked up at Chen Feng and said incredulously, "She wouldn't be marrying you, would she?"

Chen Feng shrugged, looking helpless.

Hu Liena's thoughts were a little jumbled.

This fellow lived in Teacher's Sleeping Hall, was secretly rumored to be involved with Teacher, and now he was going to marry Qian Renxue?

These relationships were far too tangled.

"Correct."

Bibi Dong's voice rang out, as calm as ever.

"I refuse."

Qian Daoliu snorted coldly. "Bibi Dong, I have no objection to your appointing a Holy Son. But I absolutely refuse to agree to Xiao Xue's marriage."

Bibi Dong glanced at Qian Daoliu and said indifferently, "And if I insist on having her return to marry?"

She had intended to send someone directly to deliver a message to Qian Renxue, but given their relationship, the other woman probably would not heed her.

Only Qian Daoliu could summon Qian Renxue back.

"You can try."

Qian Daoliu stepped forward, unleashing the pressure of a Limit Douluo.

Golden Crocodile Douluo and the other five enshrined also stepped forward, standing behind Qian Daoliu.

Seeing this, Chrysanthemum Douluo, Ghost Douluo, and the others released their own pressure as well.

Though there were nine Titled Douluo among them, making ten in total with Bibi Dong, their combined presence was another matter.

The seven enshrined led by Qian Daoliu thoroughly overwhelmed them.

"Ow!"

The pressure of more than a dozen Titled Douluo was terrifying. Chen Feng and Hu Liena were instantly flattened against the ground.

I knew it. I should have left sooner.

Grumbling inwardly, Chen Feng released his martial soul and soul ring.

The aura of his super god-level martial soul, combined with that of his Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring, counteracted some of the pressure.

Chen Feng slowly stood up. His chest still felt as though a boulder were pressing down on it, leaving him uncomfortable, but at least he no longer had to lie on the ground.

Hu Liena's eyes went round, and she cried out in horror, "A h-hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring?"

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Figures shot through the air and surrounded Chen Feng.

Everyone gaped, their faces filled with shock.

Even Bibi Dong's eyes widened in utter astonishment.

When had this little bastard absorbed a soul ring?

And a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring at that.

But how could he possibly absorb a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring as his first soul ring?

Every Titled Douluo in Spirit Hall was here, so who had helped him hunt a hundred-thousand-year soul beast?

At that moment, Bibi Dong's mind brimmed with endless questions.

Looking at the dumbstruck crowd, Chen Feng forced a smile, waved, and said, "Um, I'm just passing through. Please, carry on."

With that, he tried to flee.

"Wait!"

Qian Daoliu finally recovered his senses and hurriedly blocked Chen Feng's path. He said excitedly, "Young man, what's your name? Would you be willing to join our Spirit Hall? No, wait. Since you're here, that means you already belong to Spirit Hall. Good, good, good! To think our Spirit Hall has produced such a heaven-defying prodigy. Heaven truly smiles upon our Spirit Hall."

The usually composed Great Enshrined could no longer remain calm.

The others finally came to their senses as well, excited smiles appearing on their faces.

A hundred-thousand-year first soul ring-regardless of how he had achieved it, his future accomplishments would surely surpass everyone's imagination.

"He is the Holy Son I intend to appoint, and the one who will marry Qian Renxue."

Bibi Dong's voice rang out.
