Douluo Continent: This Soul Master is Too Bizarre and Unpredictable

Chapter 87 Don't come any closer!

When facing Shui Yanyu, her savior, Qian Renxue didn't feel there was anything to hide about her real name.

There's no need to hide her identity as the young master of the Spirit Hall, as long as Shui Yanyu doesn't find out that the Heaven Dou Crown Prince Xue Qinghe is her, thus affecting her years-long infiltration plan.

When Qian Renxue revealed her background, Shui Yanyu was slightly taken aback. She hadn't expected that this current successor of the Angel Family would recognize her.

It's good that we know each other; at least it saves her the trouble of introducing herself.

"No need to thank me, it was just a small favor. Now that you have advanced, leave the Star Dou Great Forest."

Shaking her head slightly, Shui Yanyu said casually, then turned and flew away.

Seeing Shui Yanyu turn and leave, Qian Renxue couldn't help but look surprised. She was thinking of thanking her properly!

Coming to her senses, Qian Renxue hurriedly called out, "Dean Shui, I can never repay your life-saving grace. If you ever encounter any difficulties in the future, please send someone to the Hall of Worship in Martial Soul City to find me!"

Perhaps for Shui Yanyu, killing two evil soul beasts was nothing, just something she did casually, but for her, it was a life-saving grace.

As the successor of the angels who represent light and justice, how could Qian Renxue not repay the kindness?

Even if she can't repay the debt herself for the time being, she can ask the Spirit Hall and her grandfather to do so!

Hearing the shouts from behind, Shui Yanyu, who had turned her back to Qian Renxue and was flying away, smiled and then disappeared into the forest ahead.

Shui Yanyu chose to help because she wanted Qian Renxue, the young master of the Spirit Hall, to owe her a favor.

Watching Qian Renxue being hunted down is definitely not an option, as it offers absolutely no benefit.

Killing Qian Renxue doesn't seem to bring any benefits to either himself or Tianshui Academy.

After all, Tianshui Academy is just a platform for training Soul Masters, and the academy does not impose mandatory requirements on its graduates.

In the past, many graduates of Tianshui Academy have joined the Spirit Hall. As long as there is no enmity between them, whether the Spirit Hall will gain another powerful member in the future will not have much impact on Tianshui Academy.

But helping Qian Renxue was a different story. Two soul beasts that were over 40,000 years old were nothing to her, an eight-ring Soul Douluo.

With this life-saving grace, putting aside any talk of repaying the favor, at least Tianshui Academy no longer needs to worry about the Spirit Hall, the dominant force in the spirit master world, posing a threat to the academy.

Those in the know are aware that there are two people in power in the Spirit Hall: one is Bibi Dong, the Pope of the Spirit Hall, and the other is the retired "Invincible in the Sky" Qian Daoliu. One is in the open and the other is in the shadows.

Even within the Spirit Hall, the power of "Sky Invincible," who had been in seclusion for many years, was even greater.

There's no other reason than that 'Sky Invincible' is one of the strongest beings in the world.

Furthermore, before Bibi Dong, the position of Pope of the Spirit Hall had always been held by members of the Angel Family. The influence of the Angel Family could not be changed in just over ten years.

Shui Yanyu wasn't very clear about the relationship between Bibi Dong, the current Pope of the Spirit Hall, and Qian Renxue.

It doesn't matter if the two have no relationship or a shallow relationship, as long as Qian Renxue and Qian Daoliu have a deep relationship.

Since Qian Renxue is the young master of the Spirit Hall and a member of the Angel Clan, she must either be the daughter of the former Pope Qian Xunji or the offspring of the "Invincible Sky" old tree after it blossomed.

The former is his only granddaughter, and the latter is his only living daughter. Regardless of which situation it is, this "Invincible Sky" has to acknowledge the affection he has shown today, otherwise his Qian family line will end.

With this bond in place, who in the Spirit Hall's territory would dare to harm Tianshui Academy in the future?

It was only because Mu Yang was still absorbing spirit rings at this moment, and his spirit ring configuration was not something that others could see, that Shui Yanyu would have gone all the way and directly protected Qian Renxue as she left the Star Dou Great Forest.

Fortunately, this place is only the inner area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest, and there are not many powerful soul beasts. With Qian Renxue's level of entering the sixth ring Soul Emperor, as long as she is not too unlucky, she will not be in any danger.

As for the scene where he was chased by two black griffon vultures earlier?

Yes, this successor of the angels must have had some bad luck.

After all, in the inner area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest, it is rare to see a soul beast that is over 40,000 years old, let alone two of them appearing at once.

After Shui Yanyu left, Qian Renxue did not leave the Star Dou Great Forest immediately, but instead landed in the forest below and silently recovered her soul power.

If she had been at her peak condition when she encountered those two Black Grey Vultures, she would not have faced any life-threatening danger.

She might not be able to defeat two Black Grey Vultures that are over 40,000 years old, but she is also quite fast. In addition, the angelic domain suppresses evil, so even if she can't win, she can still run away.

Once they escaped the Star Dou Great Forest, would a mere two soul beasts dare to pursue them?

She didn't even need to leave the Star Dou Great Forest; she could simply turn around and find She Long and the other person.

The two were both titled Douluo with nine rings, so when facing two 80,000-year-old Flame Winged Tigers, they were not so weak that they couldn't spare a hand to kill the two Black Nether Gray Vultures.

On the other side, two figures sped across the sky above the forest.

The two were none other than She Long and Ci Xue.

It's not that they were particularly strong; in such a short time, they managed to kill two soul beasts whose strength was not much less than their own.

Instead, they unleashed a powerful attack, repelling the two Flame Winged Tigers. The two brothers then stopped their pursuit, following the lingering divine aura in mid-air to find Qian Renxue, who had already retreated.

You must understand, their job is to be bodyguards. Young Master Qian Renxue is not yet completely out of danger, so the two brothers dare not relax at all. Otherwise, if anything goes wrong, Grand Elder Qian Daoliu will not let them off the hook.

Suddenly, as they passed a cliff, She Long and his companion's expressions changed.

Under the powerful spiritual perception of the two, in addition to the residual holy soul power left by Qian Renxue, there were also traces of evil soul power residuals in mid-air, especially in the nest hidden on the other side of the cliff, where the residual evil soul power was particularly strong.

Most importantly, judging from the residual soul energy in mid-air, Qian Renxue's flight direction has changed.

It's obvious that Qian Renxue was likely spotted by the evil soul beast, whose lair was located nearby, when she passed by. A chase ensued, forcing Qian Renxue to temporarily change direction.

Immediately, the two brothers unleashed their fastest speed ever, racing after the lingering scent.

"Shuashua——"

Not long after, two figures landed in front of Qian Renxue, who was recovering her soul power, in the forest.

Seeing that Qian Renxue was safe and sound, She Long and Ci Xue breathed a sigh of relief.

It's good that nothing went wrong, otherwise they wouldn't be able to explain themselves to the High Priest.

Not only did the two brothers breathe a sigh of relief, but Qian Renxue also breathed a sigh of relief as the two bodyguards arrived, ensuring her safety.

Glancing at the frozen forest around them and the two mangled animal skeletons covered in ice and blood not far away, She Long asked, "Young Master, has an Ice-type Soul Douluo made a move?"

"Indeed, we owe a great debt to Dean Shui of Tianshui Academy today."

Nodding, Qian Renxue sighed.

To be honest, Qian Renxue really thought she was going to die at that time.

"Tianshui Academy. Shui Yanyu?"

Upon hearing this, the two raised their eyebrows.

Qian Renxue had been infiltrating the Tiandou Empire for many years. In their spare time, the two brothers had also paid attention to the situation of various forces in the Tiandou Empire. They had a basic understanding of the major forces within the Tiandou Empire and naturally knew who the Dean of Tianshui Academy was.

"Young Master, Dean Shui seems to be about three or four miles away. He is accompanied by two other people, one of whom appears to be refining a soul ring."

Pointing to the north, She Long said to Qian Renxue.

Although the perception wasn't very specific, She Long could still sense the soul power aura of Shui Yanyu, Shui Bing'er, and Mu Yang, who was refining his soul ring, three or four miles away.

"I see, no wonder it was such a coincidence."

Qian Renxue suddenly realized.

She knew it! How could Shui Yanyu suddenly appear in the forest? It turns out that Shui Yanyu was leading a group to hunt souls, and coincidentally, people from Tianshui Academy were nearby refining soul rings.

Well, Qian Renxue felt that she should thank the person who refined the soul ring. If she hadn't refined the soul ring nearby to advance her level, Shui Yanyu definitely wouldn't have stayed here.

Without Shui Yanyu's help, she might not have been able to hold out until She Long and the other two arrived.

"Let's go over there. Dean Shui left in such a hurry that I didn't have a chance to properly thank him."

After calling out to the two, Qian Renxue walked towards the direction where Shui Yanyu was.

If she didn't know, that would be fine, but now that she does, it's only right and proper that she goes over to express her gratitude.

Mu Yang: Don't come any closer!

"Young Master, she knows your identity. Won't that..."

Ci Xue said hesitantly.

It should be noted that Qian Renxue's identity is a major secret within the Spirit Hall, known only to a very few high-ranking members, and is not suitable for an outsider like Shui Yanyu to know.

Qian Renxue waved her hand without turning her head: "It's alright, I'm just Qian Renxue now."

So what if the world knows she died young, but she didn't actually die young? As long as her identity as Xue Qinghe remains hidden.

With her invincible grandfather around, who would dare to harm her? Aren't they afraid of "Sky Invincible" knocking on their door?

Seeing this, She Long and Ci Xue followed.

Halfway there, Qian Renxue couldn't help but ponder how she should repay Shui Yanyu.

Should we offer a soul bone, or use other treasures to express our sentiments?

After all, this was a life-saving favor. To only offer a promise of "come to me if you need anything" would seem cheap and unbecoming of her status as the young master of the Spirit Hall.

It should be noted that Tianshui Academy is quite powerful, and since it is an academy-type power without any obvious bias, no major power on the continent would be so foolish as to cause them trouble. Whether Shui Yanyu will be able to use her promise in the future is still uncertain.

Just as Qian Renxue was pondering this, a figure appeared in front of the three of them.
