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

Chapter 201 To Him
After leaving the Crown Prince's residence, Dugu Yao originally planned to return directly to the Nine Nether Cave, but he couldn't resist Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling's desire to explore Tian Dou City.

Helpless, he could only accompany them. The two toured the Heavenly Dou City, and after watching the exciting battles in the Soul Arena, they boarded a carriage and set off to return to the Nine Nether Cave.

Upon returning to the Nine Nether Cave, Dugu Yao told Dugu Bo about the matter.

Dugu Bo was full of energy as he pondered this matter.

Xue Qinghe directly purchased pills from the Xuanling Pill Sect? He claimed he wanted to cultivate his own team, but the pills they sold, while very powerful, were far from being able to directly enhance one's strength!
First-grade and second-grade pills are far less effective than those high-grade pills. If you insist on saying that you want to cultivate your own team, that makes sense. It doesn't matter who you sell to.
"Why shouldn't we sell to them? Since this prince is using this opportunity to show goodwill towards our Xuanling Pill Sect, we have no reason to refuse. It's just something we can do anyway."

"Besides, even if we sell it to him, a large quantity of pills wouldn't make any difference. I think that without Xueye's permission, this prince probably wouldn't do something so outrageous!"

Dugu Bo said this, not caring about it.

What he cared about was the golden token on the table, the characters engraved on it representing Crown Prince Xue Qinghe. This thing wasn't something you could just take whenever you wanted, nor could you just return it whenever you wanted.

Although Xue Qinghe is the Crown Prince, his position is not very secure. He has three younger brothers, some of whom have exceptional talent in cultivation. But that was all in the past.

Now that he has become Ning Fengzhi's disciple and has the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School as his backing, his position is practically impregnable.

Moreover, Ning Fengzhi's losses are directly tied to Xue Qinghe, the future emperor. All he can do is fully support Xue Qinghe, rather than watch Xue Qinghe be overthrown by his other brothers!
In the past, he would have definitely thought about what the consequences would be if he got the token, but now it doesn't matter. The other party's position is so secure that it would be beneficial for them to get it!
There's a saying that goes, having nothing and not using something are two different things. They have it but don't have to use it, and others don't even know about their relationship with Xue Qinghe. Besides, the other party is also trying their best to win over their Xuanling Pill Sect.

This token is the best proof. If they didn't want to win over the Xuanling Pill Sect, but only because Yao'er and the others were friends with them, why would they give away this thing?

"Grandpa?" Dugu Yan asked, looking at her grandfather.

Dugu Bo waved his hand and said, "Everything else is fine, but I think you should understand the meaning of this token, Yao'er. Among the three of you, you are the most intelligent!"

Dugu Yao did not deny it: "Xue Qinghe's move is nothing more than trying to win us over, but if we show our tokens to outsiders..."

"Regardless of our intentions, to outsiders, as long as this token appears in our hands and we use it, then we are on Xue Qinghe's side!"

In front of outsiders, whether it's Dugu Bo or others, they all use respectful language when speaking to Xue Ye and Xue Qinghe. But in private, they can be described as very bold, and of course, they have the power to do so.

“Not bad!” Dugu Bo’s gaze swept over the three of them: “When you come into contact with him in the future, you can appropriately express that our Xuanling Pill Sect wants to do as he wishes. This will also be beneficial to our Xuanling Pill Sect.”

"Of course, it's best if we don't get involved in royal disputes. Getting too entangled will only create a mess, and no one can explain it clearly. It will be very troublesome!" "We are too small to offend the Spirit Hall, the Star Luo Empire, or the Heaven Dou Empire. We can help these three parties with anything within our capabilities."

"But as for which side we should truly commit to, that requires careful consideration. We are not the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School; all we want is steady and stable development."

Dugu Yao understood this very well. Judging from his grandfather's words alone, with that kind of strength, he was not afraid of any force, whether it was the Spirit Hall or the Heaven Dou Empire. It was unclear whether this was the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School or the Star Luo Empire.

Offending the other party is fine, but all of this is based on the premise that my grandfather is free from all trouble. As the saying goes, those who have nothing to lose are not afraid of those who have nothing to lose, so he has nothing to fear!

If it were the original timeline, that would naturally be the case. Fearless and unafraid of anyone, at worst they would just run into the deep mountains and forests. But now, his father and mother are here, along with his sister and himself.

And the vast Xuanling Pill Sect, this is my grandfather's shoe, a shackle, or rather, a shackle, but when doing certain things that offend people, one needs to consider the consequences.

"Take it. This is from His Highness. Unless you encounter an insurmountable problem, you probably won't need it. It's best not to take this out in front of outsiders."

Dugu Bo pushed the token to Dugu Yao.

He said it was for his grandson, but wasn't it also for him? This Xue Qinghe is quite cunning. At the banquet, he even gave the precious top-grade spiritual herbs to his younger brother, which shows how deep his scheming is!

"If we could have a period of peace and stability for one or two decades, why would our Xuanling Pill Sect have to depend on others?" Dugu Bo leaned back on the leather sofa and murmured to himself.

One or two decades?

Twenty years may not be enough, but more than ten years is possible, and it will be a very stable period of more than ten years. After this period, something earth-shattering will happen!
Dugu Yao thought to himself.

During this period, the extent to which their Xuanling Pill Sect could develop was predictable, but the extent to which his younger sister and Lingling could grow was unknown.

He was very confident in himself. Becoming a Title Douluo, and an extremely powerful one at that, was a sure thing. It wasn't difficult for him!
If you can't achieve innate level 20 soul power, three immortal herbs, and the pills, you might as well find a block of tofu and smash your head against it.

A moment later, Dugu Yao, Dugu Yan, and Ye Lingling left the reception room and returned to their respective rooms. They would report back to Xue Qinghe about this matter tomorrow.

Back in his room, Dugu Yao let Xiang Liu roam freely while he himself began to cultivate seriously. With his soul power level breakthrough imminent, he could only cultivate even more diligently to shorten the time required.
