Douluo: The martial soul Nine-headed Xiangliu swallows the sky and devours the earth!

Chapter 187 Eye-opening
An embarrassed Xue Qinghe (Qian Renxue) led Dugu Yao and the others on a tour of the Crown Prince's residence. Dugu Yao and the others were quite shocked, as was she herself.

She had only been at the Crown Prince's residence for a few days and had only visited a few places. She hadn't visited the rest yet, so she invited Dugu Yao and the others to come and tour the place together.

But the extravagance of the Crown Prince's residence far exceeded her expectations. Although their Spirit Hall also had luxurious buildings, it was only reflected in the architecture.

For example, the three main halls—the Papal Hall, the Douluo Hall, the Elder Hall, and the Spirit Hall—did not reach this level; the floors were all made of gold spirit coins, which was simply too extravagant.

Of course, all of this is the result of the reforms made by successive crown princes. The Crown Prince's residence can only be like this because of the reforms made by successive crown princes. Perhaps Xueye also contributed to this aspect back then.

"Brother Qinghe, the magnificence of this Crown Prince's residence far exceeds our imagination. It's truly an eye-opener for us! Our Xuanling Pill Sect is nowhere near as impressive as this place!"

Dugu Yao's lips twitched as he said, "Although our Dugu Mansion has undergone several renovations, and the amount of gold soul coins spent on these renovations is enormous, it's nothing compared to this place!"

The Heaven Dou Empire's royal family is indeed the greatest evil of the Heaven Dou Empire, and if the emperor is the head of evil, then the crown prince is the second-in-command of evil!
"I suppose the Prince's Mansion and the other residences of the Heavenly Dou royal family, no matter how bad they are, can't be that bad. Besides, Xue Qinghe said that the Crown Prince's Mansion and the Heavenly Dou Imperial Palace are worlds apart!"

"I wonder what the Heavenly Dou Imperial Palace is like!" Dugu Yao thought to himself, clicking his tongue in amazement.

"Hahaha." Xue Qinghe laughed awkwardly, "I'm sorry to have made you laugh. Actually, I didn't know that this place would be like this. I've only been here for a few days."

Clearly, Dugu Yao, Dugu Yan, and Ye Lingling did not believe it. Seeing their reaction, Xue Qinghe did not say anything more and continued to lead them to visit other places.

Seeing that it was already noon and the tour of the Crown Prince's residence was not yet over, Xue Qinghe instructed the servants to start preparing lunch, his usual meals, which were laid out on the long table.

There are a total of twenty-nine ordinary delicacies, and none of them are the same. Almost every dish they can name is available here, and the number of dishes may double in the evening.

After the meal, Dugu Yao, Dugu Yan, and Ye Lingling bid farewell to Xue Qinghe and left the sinful Crown Prince's mansion.

Xue Qinghe sat on the rattan chair on the balcony, gazing into the distance at the carriage carrying Dugu Yao and the others as they departed. His face was extremely gloomy. The Tiandou royal family was indeed no good.

If these things were used effectively instead of becoming mere decorations, the Heavenly Dou Empire's national strength wouldn't be so weak.

"Young Master!" The maid came up behind Xue Qinghe, bowed respectfully, and spoke. Clearly, this maid was Qian Renxue's person, and a trusted confidante at that!

"In the future, I don't want to see the extravagant side of this Crown Prince's residence. We need to hurry up and renovate it, remove all the useless things, and exchange them for gold soul coins in a few days!"

"Stored in the warehouse," Qian Renxue said coldly. If it weren't for these extravagant aspects, she wouldn't be in such an awkward situation!
I wonder what the previous crown princes were thinking. Were there never any honest and upright crown princes? Or did they all think that this was the natural thing to do?
"Yes, young master!" After saying that, the maid left and began to prepare to renovate the entire Crown Prince's residence as the young master had instructed. It seemed that the young master was extremely dissatisfied with this place!
"Even the Crown Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire is so extravagant and wasteful. It's no wonder that the entire Heaven Dou Empire is already rotten to the core. My arrival will inject fresh blood into the entire Heaven Dou Empire!" "Thus, I will be reborn!" Qian Renxue said calmly. Today has really opened her eyes. In the past, she thought that their Spirit Hall was already extravagant enough.

However, the Crown Prince's residence is more direct and obvious. Although she hasn't been to the Heavenly Dou Imperial Palace much since becoming Xue Qinghe, it is clear that the Crown Prince's residence is far superior to the Heavenly Dou Imperial Palace.

The carriage wheels rolled on the ground. The three people inside were still in shock. It had completely shattered their worldview. The extravagance of the Heavenly Dou royal family was far beyond their imagination!
Dugu Yao shook his head with a wry smile. The more extravagant the Heavenly Dou Empire was, the more difficult the lives of ordinary people were. He didn't know exactly how difficult they were, since he was born with a Soul Douluo grandfather.

Those hardships are unseen and intangible to him, and he cannot even imagine them through thought. It's like being too tall to see the scene below.

"But none of this has anything to do with me. Judging from Qian Renxue's expression, she seems quite surprised as well," Dugu Yao thought to himself, clearing away the miscellaneous thoughts in his mind.

After leaving the Crown Prince's residence, they did not leave Tiandou City immediately, since it was still early before nightfall. The three of them then began to explore Tiandou City.

Putting the matter at the Crown Prince's residence out of their minds, shopping was, of course, unavoidable, something that Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling loved to do most.

Looking at the two people walking ahead, Dugu Yao shook his head with a wry smile. His own wallet was also a little empty. Judging from the signs, most of the gold soul coins he won from the last bet would probably be spent.

I don't know if the two of them were getting revenge on him, since they kept betting and winning while they themselves kept betting and losing.

"I'm not saying this to be mean, but you guys should buy less. Clothes and such are one thing, but are all those other miscellaneous things really necessary?" Dugu Yao asked helplessly.

Despite her young age, she has a strong desire to shop, which he finds hard to understand. However, she is still his younger sister, and he has to spoil her.

Dugu Yan seemed not to hear and continued shopping. After they had seen enough, the three of them began to stroll around, heading to the largest Soul Arena in Tiandou City.

Having learned from their previous experience, the two of them didn't place any bets this time, nor did they place any gold soul coins. Dugu Yao, having just exhausted his resources, also didn't place any gold soul coins.

"When will I be able to find such an evenly matched opponent?" Dugu Yao said with some emotion, watching the two Soul Masters fighting back and forth in the arena.

But upon closer reflection, he realized that such a person was unlikely. Suddenly, he thought of someone, but it would take them two years to awaken their martial soul, making them clearly unsuitable as an equal opponent.

As evening approached, Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling, finally satisfied, boarded their carriage and began their return to the Nine Nether Cave.
