"Grandpa, do you think that woman will insist on sending people to kill Little Chen?" Qian Renxue asked, looking at Qian Daoliu before her, unable to keep the worry from her voice.
Had she been too forceful just now? Since she had been asking that woman for something, should her tone and attitude have been a little more tactful? But the moment she saw that woman's face, she instinctively wanted to go against her. Thinking back on it now, Qian Renxue felt a little regretful. But with her stubborn personality, there was no way she could lower her head to that woman now.
"No, Little Xue, you're wrong. She just gave the order to withdraw her original arrangements against Mu Chen. All plans have been canceled," Qian Daoliu said, shaking his head, though he still did not quite understand Bibi Dong's move.
"Strange. With that woman's decisive and ruthless personality, how could she possibly let Little Chen go just like that? Could it be that I misjudged her?" Qian Renxue murmured softly.
"Since the Worship Hall and the Papal Hall have reached the same stance, Spirit Hall will no longer target that boy Mu Chen. Little Xue, you can rest easy," Qian Daoliu said.
But seeing his granddaughter's happy look, Qian Daoliu felt somewhat speechless. His granddaughter really had forgotten her grandfather the moment she got a sweetheart. Couldn't she at least thank her grandfather?
"Mm. I also won't let Mu Chen ruin Spirit Hall's plans. I promise!" Qian Renxue said with a smile.
"Mm. I believe in my granddaughter's abilities. But here, Grandpa also has a piece of advice for you," Qian Daoliu said.
"What advice, Grandpa?" Qian Renxue asked curiously.
"You'd better keep a close eye on that boy. Don't let him get stolen away by other women. Judging from the information Spirit Hall has gathered, that boy is quite attractive.
"On top of that, you still have to carry out the plan. The time the two of you can spend together really won't be much. Don't come crying back to Spirit City when the time comes," Qian Daoliu said with a half-smile.
"Grandpa, I will. I, Qian Renxue, won't be like that. There's no breakup—only widowhood!" Qian Renxue said seriously.
"Mm. If that boy really does wrong you, then I'll also prepare him a fine gift," Qian Daoliu said with a laugh as he looked at his granddaughter's expression. How truly "domineering."
"How about you don't hurry back to Heaven Dou City today? It's been a very long time since we grandfather and granddaughter had a proper talk," Qian Daoliu said, looking into the distance with a hint of melancholy.
"Mm. I'll leave tomorrow." Seeing the gray at her grandfather's temples, Qian Renxue felt a little ache in her heart and obediently nodded.
The grandfather and granddaughter looked at each other and smiled... Meanwhile, on Mu Chen, Gu Yuena, and Sword Douluo's return to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, they also ran into some trouble.
There was no helping it. Gu Yuena's looks were simply too outstanding, and that otherworldly temperament of hers was indeed extremely obvious, making it very easy for her to draw people's attention.
Never mind other people—even Mu Chen himself had frozen the first time he saw Gu Yuena. He already had a stunningly beautiful wife like Qian Renxue, yet he still had not been able to withstand it.
After attracting several self-important "high-quality human males," Mu Chen, in order to reduce trouble and return to the sect as soon as possible, had no choice but to have Gu Yuena put on a purple veil.
Although it still could not hide Gu Yuena's aura or her perfect figure, it was at least much better than before.
Sigh. Sometimes, being too beautiful was also a kind of trouble.
As for Gu Yuena herself, she was extremely disgusted by the approach of these humans who did not know their place. If Little Chen had not repeatedly stressed to her not to kill people and to listen to him, a single look from her would have made these ugly, misshapen humans vanish without even their bones remaining. No matter how she looked at it, Little Chen beside her was much more pleasing to the eye. This must be what Mu Chen called "good-looking."
Gu Yuena also gradually gained a deeper understanding of the differences between the human world and the soul beast world, and began trying to learn and accept these things. After all, she still had to stay with Little Chen in the human world for over a dozen years, or even several decades. It was impossible for her to make no progress at all.
Finally, after more than half a month, the three of them—Mu Chen, Gu Yuena, and Sword Douluo—at last arrived at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. Looking at the familiar sect before them, both Mu Chen and Sword Douluo let out a breath of relief, then the three of them walked inside.
"Wow! Brother Chen, who is this big sister? She's really, really pretty!" Ning Rongrong asked curiously when she saw Gu Yuena.
But an ominous feeling also rose in Ning Rongrong's heart. No way. Could Brother Chen have gone out to obtain his third soul ring and then met this super-pretty big sister? Brother Chen was handsome, spoke nicely, had high talent, treated people well, and was considerate and gentle.
(Mu Chen: Rongrong, when you praise me like that, I'm getting a little embarrassed.) And then the two of them fell in love? Ning Rongrong, whose imagination had run wild, thought up to this point, and still developed hostility toward this super-pretty big sister.
Brother Chen is mine, mine! Gu Yuena's powerful spiritual perception sensed the hostility this cute little girl held toward her and found it strange, but the other party's strength was far too weak, so Gu Yuena did not pay it any mind.
To be precise, in Gu Yuena's eyes, all the humans here were ant-like existences. Sword Douluo, as the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's strongest individual combatant, was only a slightly stronger ant.
"Uncle Sword, Little Chen~ It seems Little Chen has already obtained his third soul ring. Rank 33. Very outstanding. And this person beside you is?"
Ning Fengzhi also asked curiously. Even after having gone through so many storms in life, he had never seen such a beautiful woman.
Judging from her appearance, her relationship with Little Chen did not seem simple. Could it be that he had merely gone out to obtain his third soul ring, and then...? Then what about Rongrong? "Well, let me introduce her. This is my long-lost older sister. After she was adopted by another family, she changed her surname and took that family's surname, Gu, with the given name Yuena. She's called Gu Yuena.
"Grandpa Sword and I happened to meet her in the Star Dou Great Forest. By relying on a keepsake, we recognized each other. Sister Na'er will be living with me from now on," Mu Chen said.
Huh? Why did even he feel like he did not believe the nonsense he had just said?
