Douluo Continent: Ning Rongrong? Even a dog wouldn't chase her.

"Yes, Granny Snake, it has indeed been a long time since we last met."

"I almost didn't recognize you just now."

Gu Yi smiled awkwardly and couldn't help but take a step back.

For some reason, he always felt a chill when he looked at the snake woman's smile.

'She...she wouldn't still want me to be her granddaughter's husband, would she?'

Chapter 129 Encountering the Snake Woman Again

"Gu Yi?"

"Is that the peerless genius you mentioned to me before? The one who was hunted down by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School?"

As he spoke, Long Gong kept glancing at Gu Yi.

“It’s him, it’s him.” The Snake Woman nodded. “At the time, I didn’t know he was from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.”

"Furthermore, Gu Yi, you shouldn't be a member of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School anymore, right?"

A year ago, when Gu Yi was being hunted by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, she had also arranged for people to search for him.

They wanted to save Gu Yi when he was in danger, and then hide him away in their own family until he grew into a Title Douluo.

Unfortunately, the search ultimately yielded no results.

"Yes, I have now severed ties with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."

"However, now I..."

Gu Yi wanted to explain, but before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the excited Snake Woman.

"That's great!"

"Gu Yi, my condition remains the same as before. Do you want to join our family?"

"We will not be like the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, which does not cherish geniuses."

Upon hearing that Gu Yi was now a free man, Snake Woman immediately began trying to win him over again.

Although a year has passed, Gu Yi still left a very deep impression on her.

She believed that the genius boy from back then would only become stronger now!

"Ok?"

"Old woman, why are you in such a hurry? I haven't even had a proper look at him yet."

Dragon Lord was actually somewhat dissatisfied with Snake Woman's agitated attitude.

His impression of Gu Yi was only based on the Snake Granny's verbal descriptions; he had no personal experience of how strong Gu Yi's talent truly was.

Moreover, he wasn't particularly comfortable letting a young man who could attract the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School to hunt him down join his family.

"What are you still looking at, old man? If I miss out on a genius like Gu Yi, I'll regret it to death!"

The Snake Granny was getting anxious, fearing that the Dragon Lord's hesitation would cause her to lose Gu Yi, this genius, once again.

"is it?"

"I'm really curious to see just how talented he can be."

Long Gong frowned, turned to look at Gu Yi, and asked again, "Boy, what is your current soul power level?"

Upon hearing this, both Snake Granny and Meng Yiran immediately turned their gazes to Gu Yi.

"Well... actually, I've already joined the Spirit Hall, so there's no point in you asking these questions."

"I can no longer join your family."

Gu Yi scratched the back of his head, somewhat embarrassed, and replied.

He couldn't get a word in edgewise, otherwise he would have already laid his cards on the table.

"What! You've already joined the Spirit Hall?"

"This this……"

The snake woman looked conflicted and heartbroken. She wanted to try to salvage the situation, but then felt that it might not be a good idea.

A look of disappointment appeared on Meng Yiran's face; she felt a little regretful.

"Kid, I didn't ask if you've joined any factions yet."

"Just tell me what level your soul power is right now."

"I'm really curious, just how terrifying can a genius be to excite an old woman like this?"

Long Gong didn't react much; he never really had any particular feelings for Gu Yi.

However, the more excited the snake woman and her companions became, the more he...

The more curious I became, the more my curiosity grew.

"Uh...you might not believe it, but I'm already a level 75 Soul Saint."

Gu Yi hesitated for a moment, but decided to answer his question anyway.

He had a good impression of the people in front of him, even though he knew them from the original work.

"Hmm?" The Dragon Lord frowned. "Boy, are you toying with this old man?"

"You should at least prepare a draft before you lie. Do you think we'd believe what you just said?"

Long Gong was a little angry, thinking that Gu Yi was joking with him, but the joke was not very funny.

Can a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy become a Soul Saint?

If he were a Soul Saint, I would...

Before Long Gong could finish his internal monologue, a bone dragon phantom slowly appeared behind Gu Yi.

Immediately, a soul ring configuration of three purple and four black appeared before him.

"Hun... Soul Saint!"

As he exclaimed in surprise, the Dragon Lord couldn't help but take a step back. At this moment, the shock in his heart was beyond words.

Even if he racked his brains to the point of explosion, he still couldn't figure out how to help a thirteen or fourteen-year-old child cultivate to the level of a Soul Saint!

This is really terrifying.

'Is this what the old women mean by talent?'

Dragon Lord now finally understood why Snake Granny and Meng Yiran were so excited.

But what he didn't know was that the Snake Granny and Meng Yiran were far more surprised than he was.

In their minds, Gu Yi at this point should at most be a Soul King, and even if he were more monstrous, a Soul Emperor would be the absolute maximum.

But who could have imagined that Gu Yi would become so strong!

"Well... that's all for now. It was a pleasure to meet you all today. I have some things to attend to, so I'll be leaving now."

With that, Gu Yi withdrew his martial spirit into his body, intending to run away as quickly as possible.

But how could his ideas possibly have a chance to be implemented in front of Snake Granny and the others?

The moment he uttered those words, the Snake Woman and the Dragon King had already grabbed his hands.

"Don't rush off, Gu Yi!"

"You're here today to watch the qualifiers, right?"

"Our show is still the first one today, would you like to watch it with us?"

As the snake woman spoke, she nudged Meng Yiran, who was lost in thought, with her other hand, as if she wanted her to hurry up and show off her skills.

"Uh... well, I already have an appointment with someone."

"So..."

Gu Yi's face was full of rejection. While trying his best to explain and refuse, he also wanted to escape from here as soon as possible.

But just as he was explaining, a familiar voice came from behind him.

"Gu Yi?"

"What are you doing here?"

Hu Liena had somehow walked in through the same entrance and stopped behind Gu Yi.

They had clearly noticed the commotion and unusual activity, as well as Gu Yi's figure.

"Yes! Hu Liena, you've come?"

Upon hearing that familiar voice, Gu Yi hurriedly turned around, as if he had seen a glimmer of hope.

"Um, what are you... doing?"

Hu Liena looked at Gu Yi with a puzzled expression and asked.

"Oh, it's okay, let's go watch the qualifiers!"

As he spoke, Gu Yi took the opportunity to free his hand from the Dragon God and Snake Goddess's grasp.

He quickly stood beside Hu Liena, his body constantly on guard against the Dragon King and the Snake Woman.

"and many more!"

"Gu Yi, are you really not considering joining our family?"

"I guarantee that once you join our family, the benefits you will enjoy in the future will be better than what you have now."

Seeing that Gu Yi was about to slip away, the Snake Granny asked again.

But if she snatched someone right in front of Hu Liena, wouldn't that be no different from courting death?

"Ok?"

"Which family do you belong to? How dare you compare yourself to our Spirit Hall?"

As Gu Yi expected, Hu Liena immediately went into battle mode, looking at the Snake Woman with a defiant expression.
