Qian Daoliu: As Long as Chu Ye Is One of Spirit Hall's People

Smack!

"Ah!!"

"Ahhh..."

Chu Ye slammed his fist into Yu Hu's face, then pinned him to the ground and beat him up. Yu Hu screamed again and again.

However, Chu Ye knew how to hold back. At most, it was just a beating, nothing more than some pain to the flesh.

But in the end, after only a few punches, there was a sudden clack, and one of Yu Hu's front teeth fell out of his mouth.

Looking at that tooth, the corners of Chu Ye's mouth could not help twitching twice. Both the one doing the beating and the one being beaten froze.

Yu Hu stared blankly at the fallen front tooth, then instantly broke down, crying and cursing, "Wuwuwu! Chu Ye! When I said I'd beat you until you were looking for your teeth all over the floor, it was a metaphor! A metaphor! You actually knocked my tooth out!!"

"I'm going to tell my grandpa! I'll definitely make you pay!!"

Uh.

Chu Ye naturally knew it had been a metaphor. Knocking out his tooth really had been an accident. But it was already knocked out, so it was not like he could apologize, right?

The reason he had continued beating Yu Hu was to kill the chicken to scare the monkeys, to tell every Spirit Hall disciple that he was ruthless. However others wanted to treat him, he would treat them the same way—an eye for an eye.

That way, others would not dare target him so easily. If they wanted to, they would have to weigh the consequences first.

After all, Chu Ye knew very well that there were many male disciples like Yu Hu who had feelings for Qian Renxue, or who wanted to win the heart of Young Master Qian Renxue because of her status.

That included older male disciples above the age of fifteen.

"If you can't beat me, you go call your elders? Then do whatever you want." Chu Ye did not care and shrugged.

He stopped attacking, let go of Yu Hu, and straightened up. Expressionless, he swept his gaze over the surrounding crowd. Though he was so young, he actually radiated a kingly bearing that made people feel afraid.

Most of the male disciples now lowered their heads in fear, their eyes dodging away.

Even male disciples who had reached the Soul Grandmaster level actually did not dare meet Chu Ye's gaze. They muttered inwardly, This Chu Ye really is ruthless.

Clearly, at this moment, Chu Ye had already achieved a certain effect and deterrence. He withdrew his gaze, came to Qian Renxue's side, and said, "Let's go."

"Mm~"

Qian Renxue smiled faintly.

Just like that, under everyone's gazes, Chu Ye and Qian Renxue left in carefree fashion.

Watching Chu Ye's departing back, Xie Yue smiled bitterly and said, "Nana, you already knew Chu Ye's current strength, didn't you?"

"Yes, brother," Hu Liena said.

Yan was a little unhappy as he said, "Nana, you actually didn't tell us in advance."

"Chu Ye told me not to reveal it yet."

Xie Yue sighed somewhat. "Yan, now isn't the time to fuss over that. If we don't hurry up and cultivate, I'm afraid he'll catch up to us very soon..."

"Hmph, it won't be that easy for him to surpass me!"

Although Yan said that, a great pressure had indeed risen in his heart, but it also stirred up an even stronger desire in him to cultivate harder.

After this battle, Chu Ye's genius completely spread throughout the entire Pope's Palace, causing a sensation and becoming the talk of the place.

"Hey, hey, hey! Did you hear? Yesterday, Chu Ye, Your Excellency the Pope's personal disciple, beat up Snake Lance Douluo's nine-year-old grandson!"

"Really? If I remember right, that kid Yu Hu is also level eighteen, right? Chu Ye has only cultivated for one month and he can beat him?"

"It's absolutely true! Chu Ye's Soul Power is already level fourteen, and guess how old his first soul ring is? It's a thousand-year soul ring!"

"Holy shit! A thousand-year first ring!? Are you kidding me?"

"Why would I lie to you?"

"Hiss~ Incredible."

Countless disciples, and even the soul masters serving in the Pope's Palace, were discussing it fervently.

At this moment, inside the Worship Hall of the Pope's Palace.

The level ninety-nine peak Limit Douluo, Spirit Hall's Great Worship Elder Qian Daoliu, was sitting on the chair at the center of the hall.

On his left and right sat Golden Crocodile Douluo, Qian Jun Douluo, Jiang Mo Douluo, and the other six Worship Elders, all of whose Soul Power was above level ninety-six.

Qian Daoliu slowly said, "Is the matter concerning Chu Ye, Pope Bibi Dong's personal disciple, truly accurate? This child's first soul ring has reached the thousand-year level?"

Qian Jun Douluo said, "Yes. I have personally verified it. Chu Ye's first ring is as old as two thousand years!"

Qian Daoliu said meaningfully, "A two-thousand-year first ring."

Golden Crocodile Douluo's aged, deep voice also rang out. "Great Worship Elder, this child possesses a God-tier Martial Soul, and his first ring has reached the two-thousand-year level. This has never occurred before in the history of Douluo Continent. A genius of this caliber should be nurtured by our Worship Hall."

"That's right! Great Worship Elder, Bibi Dong is, after all..."

"Enough. There is no need to say such words again in the future. Whether he is nurtured by the Pope or by our Worship Hall, as long as he is one of Spirit Hall's people, that is enough." Qian Daoliu immediately cut him off.

Although Bibi Dong had taken the position of Spirit Hall's Pope, in truth, the one who currently held real power was Qian Daoliu. Everyone was more loyal to and obeyed the Six-winged Angel lineage, rather than Pope Bibi Dong.

At this time, Bibi Dong was somewhat like a puppet emperor, only gradually taking control of Spirit Hall's power as time passed.

On top of that, Qian Daoliu knew very well that the previous pope, his son Qian Xunji, had been killed by Bibi Dong's own hands. Those on Qian Daoliu's Six-winged Angel lineage side were guarding against Bibi Dong.

That was why, for a genius like Chu Ye, they wanted to nurture him themselves.

But since Qian Daoliu had said so, the others no longer said more.

Afterward.

That night, Qian Daoliu called Qian Renxue over for a talk.

"Xiao Xue, I heard that you and Chu Ye have been very close recently?"

"Yes, Grandpa." Qian Renxue nodded respectfully.

Qian Daoliu instructed, "Very good. Xiao Xue, continue maintaining a good relationship with Chu Ye. In the future, he may become the best helper at your side."

"Grandpa, I will, but I'm not interacting with Chu Ye because I want to use him for anything. It's only because he's my friend," Qian Renxue replied very seriously.

"Is that so? Grandpa understands."

After that, grandfather and Granddaughter exchanged a few more words, and Qian Renxue left first.

On the other side, on a sickbed, Yu Hu was crying as he complained to his grandpa, Snake Lance Douluo. "Wuwuwu, Grandpa! This Chu Ye really went too far. He even knocked my tooth out. Grandpa, you have to vent this anger for Hu'er!"

There was also some anger on Snake Lance Douluo's face, but what he felt more was disappointment toward his grandson for failing to live up to expectations. "It was your own lack of skill. There's nothing to say about suffering a loss, but that boy did indeed go a little too far."

In truth, Snake Lance Douluo had long since run over to Bibi Dong to complain about Chu Ye. In the end, Bibi Dong had merely said simply, "I will speak to him properly later."

Speak to him properly? This was clearly shielding her own!

Chu Ye would not even receive the slightest punishment. What could Snake Lance Douluo do?

It was not as if he could secretly send someone, or personally take action, to teach a junior a lesson, right?
