Douluo Continent: Pioneers of the Era, Gods in Parallel

Chapter 47 The Slacking Duo is Discovered

At that time, no matter who sits on the throne, the Heaven Dou Empire will be under the control of their Spirit Hall.

Moreover, Xue Qinghe was also under their control.

Even if the matter is exposed, we can simply pin the blame on the Fallen Soul Master.

It's not that complicated.

Qian Daoliu may seek peace of mind and stability in his actions, and he also needs to be particular about his methods.

But Golden Crocodile Douluo wouldn't think about these things.

What he wants is very simple: the final result.

As long as the result is correct, the process is not important.

Moreover, once the Spirit Hall has completely occupied the Heaven Dou Empire and taken control of everything, isn't issuing policies that benefit the people still spreading the blessings and grace of the Angel God?

It's just that some people will die in the process.

As for Qian Renxue, ever since she witnessed everything Zhou Yuan had done, she had been determined to compete with him.

Although Zhou Yuan's cultivation level is relatively weak now, she still needs to work hard to improve herself and not give Zhou Yuan a chance to surpass her.

Even without the immortal herb essence sent by her grandfather to enhance her physique, Qian Renxue still wanted to pursue the fourth soul ring of ten thousand years.

During this period, she never slacked off in either taking whale gelatin or exercising.

Furthermore, having fused with a soul bone that was 99,999 years old, Qian Renxue possessed such confidence.

Although skull and soul bones primarily enhance spiritual power, they also improve physical strength to some extent.

Now, we have the power of this magical herb.

Qian Renxue was very confident that her fourth soul ring would be able to absorb ten thousand years' worth of energy.

For the next period of time, Qian Daoliu and Qian Renxue trained and improved in the Martial Soul Temple in Tiandou City.

Meanwhile, Yue Guan and Gui Mei were lurking in Tian Dou City, waiting for Dugu Bo.

Then, they were discovered by Qian Daoliu.

No matter how good Yue Guan and Gui Mei's concealment techniques were, they were completely exposed when facing Qian Daoliu, a level 99 peerless Douluo.

"You two, come to the Spirit Temple immediately."

Ghost and Moon, who were leisurely slacking off, were suddenly startled by a voice echoing in their minds.

That voice... how familiar it was.

It is precisely the great offering of a thousand streams.

"Old Ghost————"

Yue Guan glanced at the ghost beside him, his eyes filled with terror.

He never expected that Qian Daoliu would appear here.

Under these circumstances, he didn't even dare to say anything to the ghosts or communicate telepathically, for fear that the High Priest would discover what they had done.

"The High Priest has summoned you; why haven't you gone yet—"

Even ghosts know that there's no room for hesitation in this matter.

He hurriedly took Yue Guan with him.

Compared to Yue Guan's tension, Gui Mei was much more at ease.

Although he didn't know why the High Priest had appeared here and discovered them, he wasn't too afraid of the High Priest.

More than anything, it's admiration.

Since the High Priest is no longer pursuing the matter of their failure to protect His Holiness the Pope, then this matter is considered closed.

Only a high-ranking deity could do this; if other deities came, the ghosts and demons wouldn't feel so at ease.

Soon, Gui Mei and Yue Guan appeared at the location where Qian Dao Liu and Qian Ren Xue were.

At this moment, Qian Renxue is practicing her sword under the oppressive aura of Qian Daoliu.

Although he wanted his granddaughter to become stronger, he still couldn't bring himself to be ruthless.

It was only after Qian Renxue's persistent requests that Qian Daoliu finally released his oppressive aura.

"You two seem pretty relaxed?"

Qian Daoliu looked at Yue Guan and Gui Mei who had appeared there and spoke calmly.

Upon hearing these words, Yue Guan and Gui Mei immediately felt a sense of urgency.

It seems I got caught slacking off on something.

When Qian Renxue saw Yue Guan and Gui Mei appear before her, a cold look immediately appeared in her eyes.

She used to like both of them very much.

Because they are Dad's protectors and his capable subordinates.

But ever since her father died, Qian Renxue has disliked them; not only that, she also harbors some hatred towards them.

Because she didn't know the full story, Qian Renxue believed that her father's death by the Moon Gate and the ghosts were also responsible.

As the Pope's guards, they survived a great battle in which the Pope died.

In Qian Renxue's view, this was a case of inadequate protection.

Therefore, Qian Renxue, at a young age, harbored some hatred towards Yue Guan and Gui Mei.

"The Great Offering—"

Faced with the Grand Elder's questioning, Yue Guan still tried to evade the issue and find an excuse.

They were indeed personally delivering a magical herb to Bibi Dong, which was a truly inappropriate act.

It's better to keep it as secret as possible.

"Reporting back to the Grand Master, we are here in search of an opportunity to obtain the immortal herb—"

Just then, the ghost came out and told Qian Daoliu everything that had happened.

This contains a lot of information, as well as their guesses and ideas.

The reason for this is quite simple.

Ghost felt that rather than hiding it and having the matter exposed later, resulting in a lose-lose situation, it was better to tell everyone clearly.

After all, their initial idea was simply to introduce a Title Douluo to the Spirit Hall.

Many things that happened afterward were unexpected.

Although Yue Guan handles most things on a daily basis, when it comes to real issues and decisions, it's Gui Mei who makes the decisions more often.

"That Bibi Dong actually obtained a magical herb as well—"

Upon hearing this answer, Qian Daoliu was quite surprised.

Although some things were concealed by the ghost due to the oath, including Bibi Dong's unusual emotional changes.

But Qian Daoliu had already sensed something amiss, and with these words now added to his understanding, he seemed to have grasped something.

"Is it possibly a divine inheritance?"

"These are truly turbulent times!"

Qian Daoliu's mind became more serious.

It seems I should be more demanding and attentive in raising Xiaoxue, just as my second brother suggested.

"Sunset Forest?"

"Perfect timing. In a few days, Xiaoxue and I are going to hunt souls. I'll accompany you to Sunset Forest then."

"If we really find the immortal herb, then everything that happened before will be wiped clean."

"You will certainly receive the reward that is due to you."

After pondering for a while, Qian Daoliu finally awakened to check.

He was unaware that his recent emotional fluctuations had intensified the suppression of his strength.

At this moment, Qian Renxue was drenched in sweat.

But she persevered and trained relentlessly.

The medicinal power of the ancient, grade nine ginseng king within his body was rapidly depleted.

"This is—this power, this is the power of the immortal herb—"

Sensing the faint red light emanating from Qian Renxue's body, Yue Guan couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

This surprised Qian Daoliu quite a bit.

Unexpectedly, Yue Guan was able to notice all of this.
