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

Three days later, on the outskirts of Notting City, in the noble manor that had been temporarily requisitioned by the Spirit Hall.

Qin Heng lay on the large, soft bed, his complexion having regained much of its rosy hue.

Thanks to Yue Guan's meticulous care and the powerful regenerative abilities of the Youxiang Qiluo Immortal Soul Bone, his injuries had mostly healed. The dull pain in his chest had significantly lessened, and he no longer experienced excruciating pain with the slightest movement as before.

In the past three days, Ghostly had turned Notting City and its surrounding areas upside down, leading the Spirit Hall's elite search team to search every forest, every village, and even remote caves and burrows, but still could not find any trace of Tang Hao and his son.

That afternoon, Ghostly Wind returned to the manor, looking disheveled. He knelt on one knee before Qin Heng's bed, his face pale, and pleaded guilty, "Your Highness, I am incompetent! We have searched the area within a hundred miles of Notting City, but we have still not found any trace of Tang Hao and his son. Please punish me, Your Highness!"

Qin Heng leaned against the headboard, gently waved his hand, and said calmly, "It's alright, get up. Tang Hao has been hiding like a rat for so many years, his ability to escape is naturally top-notch, it's normal that you can't find him."

He paused, then continued, "Let's bring everyone back. Since we can't find them, let's leave it at that for now. Let's do something more important first."

The ghost rose, bowed respectfully, and said, "Yes."

Yue Guan, standing to the side, asked softly, "What is it that Your Highness considers to be of greater importance?"

A cold glint flashed in Qin Heng's eyes as he said calmly, "As the saying goes, you can run away from the monk, but you can't hide from the temple. Since Tang Hao has run away, let's take his wife and the soul bone she left behind first."

Upon hearing this, Yue Guan was taken aback at first, then seemed to remember something and tentatively asked, "Your Highness, are you perhaps referring to that 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor?"

"That's right." Qin Heng nodded in confirmation. "It's that Blue Silver Emperor. Its vitality is extremely amazing. Even when it was sacrificed back then, it didn't truly die, but instead turned into a seed. As long as you find that seed and replant it, under suitable conditions, it won't be long before it grows into a complete Blue Silver Emperor again."

A cold smile curled at the corner of his lips as he continued his analysis: "Tang Hao was severely injured by me, and with Elder Gui chasing after him, he certainly wouldn't dare to linger near Notting City."

He's barely able to protect himself right now, let alone carry the heavily injured Tang San around. Therefore, it's highly likely that he's still hiding his wife, Ah Yin, near Holy Soul Village.

"Your Highness, that makes sense, but Blue Silver Grass is such a common plant that it's very difficult to find even if you narrow it down to a village and its surrounding area."

"Who said it's hard to find? Given Tang Hao's character as a servant of the sect, he would consider the sect's interests in everything he does. Tang San has awakened the twin martial souls, Blue Silver Grass and Clear Sky Hammer, so the grades of his two martial souls must be extremely close."

Tang Hao will definitely find a way to evolve Tang San's Blue Silver Grass into Blue Silver Emperor. One of the characteristics of Blue Silver Emperor is its uniqueness. If Ah Yin recovers, Tang San's martial soul will not be able to evolve into Blue Silver Emperor.

Therefore, Tang Hao must have kept the Blue Silver Emperor in a half-dead state all these years. If you investigate along this lines, you should be able to find it quickly.

Upon hearing this, Yue Guan nodded slightly, a hint of excitement flashing in his eyes.

Yue Guan was a lover of flowers, and flowers and plants were his favorites. The Blue Silver Emperor was undoubtedly an extremely rare existence, and Yue Guan naturally wanted to see it.

Qin Heng gazed at the setting sun outside the window, a deep chill creeping into his eyes: "Tang Hao, do you think everything will be fine once you escape with Tang San? I'll take your woman and her soul bone for now."

......

Since Qin Heng has already put it this way, finding the Blue Silver Emperor is naturally a matter of course.

The next morning, the ghost brought good news.

"Your Highness! We've found it!" Ghost knelt on one knee, his voice tinged with excitement. "The Blue Silver Emperor is indeed hiding behind a secluded waterfall in the back mountains of Holy Soul Village. I've already ordered men to secretly seal off the surrounding area to ensure no one gets close."

Upon hearing this, a hint of satisfaction flashed in Qin Heng's eyes, and he nodded, saying, "Alright, let's set off immediately. We'll go and take a look ourselves."

The three set off immediately, and Yue Guan put Xiao Wu into the special soul tool that she carried with her, which could hold living beings, and took her along.

After all, Xiao Wu's identity is special, and we must not allow her to have a chance to escape or send a signal.

The group made a discreet but quick journey to the back mountain of Holy Soul Village.

The mountain behind Holy Soul Village is steep and densely wooded, making it extremely difficult for ordinary people to discover the secrets hidden there.

However, under the perception of the three top experts from the Spirit Hall, the deliberately concealed aura had nowhere to hide.

Soon, they arrived at the place the ghost had described.

It was a small waterfall cascading down the mountainside, the water making a rushing sound.

The ghost stepped forward and gently waved its hand, its soul power transforming into a gentle force that temporarily parted the waterfall's flow, revealing the entrance to a hidden cave carved out by human hands.

The three filed in.

The cave was pitch black inside, the air was damp and cold, and there was a faint smell of decaying vegetation. The only place where light could be seen was a small hole about the size of a fist in the cave ceiling, through which a weak beam of sunlight slanted down and shone on a small blue silver grass in the center of the cave.

The Blue Silver Grass was only about half a foot tall, with sparse leaves, a dull color, and barely visible golden veins. It appeared extremely weak overall, a far cry from the legendary 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Emperor's imposing presence.

Qin Heng stood with his hands behind his back, his gaze sweeping over the small Blue Silver Grass that was clearly being deliberately suppressed. A cold smile appeared on his lips as he said indifferently, "Tang Hao really doesn't want the Blue Silver Emperor to recover."

With the terrifying vitality of the Blue Silver Emperor, if you plant it anywhere with plenty of sunlight and water, it can recover to the level of a thousand or even ten thousand years in just a few years.

But he deliberately hid her in this dark, sunless cave, where there was almost no spiritual energy... and after all these years, she has only recovered this little bit.

Yue Guan covered her mouth and chuckled softly, saying gently, "If what Your Highness says is true, then Tang Hao is most likely afraid that after the Blue Silver Emperor recovers his strength, he will block his son's path."

Ghost stood to the side, a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes: "He's supposed to be the Haotian Douluo, yet he schemes against a woman to this extent. Your Highness, shall we take her now?"

Qin Heng took two steps forward, squatted down, and carefully observed the weak Blue Silver Emperor. He reached out and gently touched one of the leaves.

A faint yet incredibly pure life force instantly entered his fingertips.

"As expected of the Blue Silver Emperor." Qin Heng stood up and said calmly, "Although it is weak, its life essence is still intact. As long as we take it back and nurture it properly, it will be able to regain its vitality in no time."

He turned to Yue Guan and instructed, "Elder Yue Guan, you love flowers the most, so I'm entrusting her to you. Do whatever you want with her, just don't kill her."

"Yes, thank you for your generous gift, Your Highness."

After speaking, Yue Guan released only extremely gentle soul power and carefully dug up the Blue Silver Emperor along with a large clump of damp soil around it.

The entire process went exceptionally smoothly. After the Blue Silver Emperor was successfully stored in the soul tool, Qin Heng nodded in satisfaction: "Very good, next is the Blue Silver Emperor's soul bone."

As he spoke, Qin Heng turned his gaze to the location of the soul bone. With his spiritual power, he confirmed the location of the Blue Silver Emperor's soul bone the moment he entered the waterfall space.

Qin Heng slammed his fist down, and a heavy lead box fell to the ground. He opened the box, and a rich life force rushed out.

Upon seeing a 100,000-year-old soul bone with their own eyes, both Yue Guan and Gui Mei's breathing became heavier.

At this moment, Ghost asked in a low voice, "Your Highness, should we return to Wuhun City next? Or should we continue to promote the cultivation technique outside?"

Qin Heng pondered for a moment and said, "I'll go back to the Tian Dou City base to recover first. The matter of Lan Yin Huang and Xiao Wu needs to be kept secret. We can't let a word of it leak out. I'll make further plans after my injuries are fully healed."

"yes!"

The three quietly left the cave and covered the waterfall entrance again, as if no one had ever been there.

The next morning, outside Nottingham.

Qin Heng and his group left Nottingham City discreetly.

Because Qin Heng's injuries had not yet fully healed, he was unable to ride a soul beast for an extended period or fly at high speed. Therefore, he chose to travel by carriage for the entire journey, with Gui Mei driving the car and Yue Guan taking care of him closely inside.

The carriage was spacious and comfortable, with thick soft cushions inside, and a healing incense burner specially prepared by Yue Guan.

Qin Heng leaned against the carriage, closed his eyes to regulate his breathing, and occasionally whispered a few words to Yue Guan.

"Your Highness, how long do you plan to rest after returning to Tiandou City?" Yue Guan asked softly as she changed his medicine bag.

"At least half a month." Qin Heng opened his eyes slightly, his voice a little hoarse. "Although I severely injured Tang Hao in this battle, I was also seriously injured myself and need time to fully recover."

"While I'm at it, I'll also study the wisp of Asura divine power I absorbed from his God of Slaughter Domain." Qin Heng didn't say this aloud, but thought it to himself.

Yue Guan covered his mouth and chuckled: "Your Highness, with your level 64 Soul Emperor cultivation, you managed to fight against Tang Hao, who was at the peak of level 95, and even defeat him and cripple one of his arms. If this were to spread, the entire continent would be shaken."

Qin Heng smiled faintly, said nothing, and simply looked out the car window at the scenery that was constantly receding.

The carriage traveled smoothly all the way, and after more than ten days, it finally arrived at Tiandou City.

......

When they returned to the Martial Soul Temple in Heaven Dou City, the entire city was already in an uproar.

"Have you heard? Prince Qin Heng of the Spirit Hall, who wrote the 'Basic General Version of Meridian Cultivation Method,' with his level 64 Soul Emperor cultivation, went head-to-head with Clear Sky Douluo Tang Hao! Not only did he defeat him, but he also crippled one of Tang Hao's arms on the spot!"

"My God! That's Tang Hao! The peerless expert who once severely injured the previous Pope, Qian Xunji!"

"A level 64 player beats a level 95 player? That's a monster!"

"The Spirit Hall has truly produced an extraordinary genius this generation. Once he becomes a Title Douluo, won't the Spirit Hall be invincible?"

"It's as if the Spirit Hall isn't invincible now."

......

The news spread like wildfire, reaching every corner of Heaven Dou City within just a few days. Soul Masters and ordinary citizens alike were buzzing about it.

The prestige of the Spirit Hall thus rose to a new level once again.

Inside the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Sect Master Ning Fengzhi remained silent for a long time after listening to his subordinates' report in his study.

He sat in the main seat, his teacup trembling slightly. After a long while, he gently put it down and looked out the window with a complicated expression.

"This kid actually beat Tang Hao..." Ning Fengzhi muttered to himself, his face full of shock and solemnity.

He clearly remembered that not long ago, Qin Heng had displayed astonishing strength when facing Uncle Gu, which was already terrifying.

And only a short time has passed, yet he has already defeated Tang Hao, the youngest titled Douluo on the continent!

"With this kid around, the Spirit Hall will probably continue its glory for hundreds of years." Ning Fengzhi sighed deeply, a deep worry flashing in his eyes.
