Douluo Continent: Targeted Thoughts, Winning Over Bibi Dong at the Start

Ye Renxin wanted to ask his granddaughter what was wrong, but the current situation did not allow him to speak, because he had already arrived in front of Qian Daoliu.

"Your Holiness, it's been a long time!" Ye Renxin bowed respectfully.

Upon hearing this, Qian Daoliu waved his hand and said, "Brother Ye, I have been abdicated for many years, so please don't call me Pope anymore. Just call me Brother Qian."

In the Douluo Continent, there are not many people whom Qian Daoliu admires and recognizes, but Ye Renxin is definitely one of them. He has been able to provide free medical treatment to ordinary people for decades and has saved countless soul masters. His actions are enough to earn Qian Daoliu's respect.

"Then I shall accept your offer, Brother Qian. Please come inside for a chat." With that, Ye Renxin gestured for him to enter.

Qian Daoliu smiled and nodded, then followed Ye Renxin to the Ye family residence. After everyone was seated, Qian Daoliu glanced at Ye Lingling and asked, "Brother Ye, is this your granddaughter?"

"good."

Upon hearing this, Qian Daoliu sighed. He was also aware of the situation of the Ye family of the Nine Heart Begonia. This martial spirit lineage was passed down only once, and at most only two people could survive at the same time on the continent.

Ye Lingling's martial soul fluctuations are exactly the same as Ye Renxin's, which means that Ye Lingling must have awakened the Nine Heart Begonia martial soul. If that's the case, Ye Renxin's daughter must have already perished.

This made Qian Daoliu feel more at ease with Ye Renxin, as he had also lost his son in his later years and could empathize with him.

"Brother Qian, is there something you need for your visit?" Ye Renxin asked.

"Brother Ye, do you still remember when I invited you to join the Spirit Hall?"

Ye Renxin was taken aback upon hearing this, clearly not expecting Qian Daoliu to have come for this reason. He waved his hand and said, "Brother Qian, my Ye family does not wish to get involved in the conflicts on the continent..."

"Brother Ye, don't be so quick to refuse. What if I told you I could help you become a Title Douluo?"

Ye Renxin's expression stiffened, then a look of doubt appeared in his eyes. He took a deep breath to calm himself down and asked, "Brother Qian, is what you say true?"

"It is true, Brother Ye. You have been stuck at level 89 as a Soul Douluo for many years. My Spirit Hall has a secret technique that can help a Soul Douluo like you break through without any side effects. However, this secret technique is a closely guarded secret of my Spirit Hall. If you are willing to join, Brother Ye, I can immediately use this secret technique to help you break through to level 90."

After listening to Qian Daoliu's words, Ye Renxin turned to look at his granddaughter. He didn't have many years left to live; at most, he could only last another ten years or so. At that time, Lingling would only be at most a Soul King, unable to support the vast Ye family, let alone protect herself.

Therefore, over the years, Ye Renxin has actually been paving the way for Ye Lingling and seeking a protector for her.

But none of this compares to the real benefit of breaking through to the Title Douluo level. If he can break through, he will be the first healing-type Title Douluo on the continent, and also the first support-type Soul Master to break through to the Title Douluo level. This is of paramount importance.

Having thought this through, Ye Renxin made his decision: "Brother Qian, if you can truly help me break through to the Title Douluo level, my Ye family is willing to join the Spirit Hall."

Upon hearing Ye Renxin's reply, Qian Daoliu nodded in satisfaction: "Alright, then shall I assist you in your breakthrough now, Brother Ye?"

"Now?"

"That's right. Qian Daoliu taught Ye Renxin the method of condensing the soul core, and then manipulated his own soul power to help Ye Renxin condense the soul core."

Dugu Bo is a titled Douluo, and he already has a rudimentary soul core within him, which is why Qian Daoliu was able to help him condense the soul core so quickly.

But Ye Renxin was different. He was just a Soul Douluo. It was much more difficult for a Soul Douluo to condense a Soul Core than for a Title Douluo. The time and soul power required far exceeded Qian Daoliu's imagination.

According to Qian Daoliu's plan, once Ye Renxin agreed to join the Spirit Hall, he would immediately step in to help. He could help Ye Renxin condense his soul core around dusk, and then go see Xue'er that night.

To his surprise, the process of helping Ye Renxin condense her soul core lasted for two whole days and two nights.

It wasn't until noon on the third day that the soul core in Ye Renxin's dantian was finally formed, and his cultivation level successfully broke through to level 90. He only needed to absorb one ninth soul ring to become a genuine Title Douluo.

Ye Renxin truly never expected that the realm he had pursued for so many years would be reached just like that, and that he could stay by Goddess Sun's side and watch her grow up.

"Thank you, Brother Qian. From this day forward, my Ye family is willing to join the Spirit Hall and never betray it!" Ye Renxin stood up and gave Qian Daoliu a deep bow.

Qian Daoliu smiled and nodded, then said, "Brother Ye, would you like my help to hunt down your ninth spirit ring?"

"Brother Qian is too busy to bother. I have some connections with His Majesty Bilin, and I can ask him for help later."

"You know Dugu Bo? That makes things easier." Afterwards, Qian Daoliu told Ye Renxin the location of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well and asked him to go there to find Dugu Bo. He also told him that Dugu Bo had joined the Spirit Hall.

Upon hearing this, Ye Renxin knew that Dugu Bo's joining the Spirit Hall was probably because the backlash from his spirit poison had been resolved with Qian Daoliu's help.

Dugu Bo had also come to see Ye Renxin, but Ye Renxin was powerless to help. He could only help suppress the poison. Even so, Ye Renxin and Dugu Bo became good friends.

"Brother Qian, if I may ask, did you come to the Heavenly Dou Empire just to subdue me and His Majesty Bilin?" Ye Renxin knew Qian Daoliu quite well and was familiar with his personality, which was why he dared to ask this question.

Qian Daoliu shook his head, pointed at Qin Heng and said, "No, I brought him out to hunt for spirit rings. As for you and Dugu Bo, it was just something we did on the way."

After absorbing two spirit rings, Qin Heng grew much taller, looking about 8 or 9 years old. Ye Renxin had noticed before that Qin Heng's spirit power was level 29. To have level 29 spirit power at the age of 8 or 9, Ye Renxin guessed that Qin Heng should be a direct descendant of the Qian family, possessing the same divinely bestowed martial spirit as Qian Daoliu, and his innate spirit power should be above level 10.

Such a genius was not someone he could interfere with, so after hearing Qian Daoliu's words, Ye Renxin wisely didn't dwell on Qin Heng any longer. He changed the subject and asked, "Brother Qian, what do you want me to do with His Majesty Bilin?"

"Your joining the Spirit Hall doesn't need to be made public anytime soon. Just do what you did before and what you will do afterward. All I need you to do is this: in the struggle for the throne of the Heaven Dou Royal Family, the Ye family and the Dugu family will fully support Xue Qinghe."

Ye Renxin fell silent. It wasn't that the conditions Qian Daoliu offered were difficult; they were too simple. If he supported Xue Beng, he might have to hesitate, but supporting Xue Qinghe was no problem at all.

The Ye family has never been involved in matters of succession, but as members of the Heaven Dou Empire, they naturally hope that the Emperor of Heaven Dou will be a wise ruler. This is only human nature. Xue Qinghe seems to be a wise ruler in every way. Even though he has already pledged allegiance to the Spirit Hall, supporting him is a million times better than supporting Xue Beng.
