Douluo Continent: The Martial Soul is actually Bibi Dong.

Chapter 98 Qian Renxue in Women's Clothing

"What did you say? I can reabsorb spirit rings?"

Upon hearing Su Mo's words, Dugu Bo, who had already considered himself a cripple, widened his eyes in surprise.

"I'm not sure either. Generally speaking, a Soul Master is indeed useless after losing their Soul Ring. However, you consumed a rare and exceptional herb that only appears once every thousand years, so the situation might be different. Besides, I know of cases where people have lost their Soul Rings and then reabsorbed them!"

Su Mo didn't dare to be sure, only saying that there was such a possibility.

"Okay, okay, as long as there's still hope!"

"If what you say is true, young friend, I will certainly never forget your guidance!"

Although he didn't hear Su Mo's affirmation, Dugu Bo was already very excited, and his eyes regained their luster.

"It's nothing. Even if I didn't say anything, you would definitely have tried it. I believe you have the courage!"

Su Mo shook her head and said with a smile.

"Haha, well said! I do have the courage, but I still want to thank you for your guidance, young friend!" After hearing Su Mo's words, Dugu Bo looked at Su Mo with even more affection.

He didn't expect anything in return... Wait, that doesn't seem right either. His treasure pouch and herb garden have been ruined.

But it doesn't matter, Dugu Bo just finds Su Mo more and more pleasing to the eye.

"If things go well, senior, you've actually turned misfortune into a blessing in disguise, because your first spirit ring will be a ten-thousand-year spirit ring!"

"However, senior's martial spirit cannot be used to rebuild poison techniques; senior needs to choose a new direction for cultivation!"

Su Mo continued.

Since he didn't kill Dugu Bo and gained Dugu Bo's friendship, Su Mo naturally hoped that if Dugu Bo could start over, he could avoid some detours.

Upon hearing Su Mo's words, Dugu Bo was naturally both excited and conflicted.

What's exciting is that his first spirit ring is a ten-thousand-year spirit ring, but what's complicated is that he can no longer cultivate poison skills. Having dealt with poison skills his whole life, suddenly having to change direction will definitely be difficult for Dugu Bo to adapt to.

"Young friend Su Mo, who exactly are you?"

Then Dugu Bo couldn't help but look at Su Mo and ask another question. He felt that Su Mo knew too much and his background must be very complicated.

"Senior, just treat me as a member of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. The sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is my future father-in-law!"

Su Mo naturally didn't mind revealing his powerful backer.

"The sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is actually my friend's future father-in-law!"

Knowing that Su Mo had this other identity, Dugu Bo looked at Su Mo with a completely different gaze.

This is the difference between having a powerful backer and not having one.

Silky~

Just then, a small, bright green snake suddenly darted out from the side and swam towards Dugu Bo.

"It's my nine-section jade!"

Upon seeing this, Dugu Bo was overjoyed and bent down to let the nine-section jade swim onto his palm.

This is his favorite pet, and also his helper.

He had just been worried about how he would hunt down the ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts, but now that his pet, Nine-Section Jade, had returned, he was immediately relieved.

With his Nine-Section Jadeite in hand, he was confident in dealing with some ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts.

His nine-section jade is extremely poisonous; if bitten, there's no antidote. Finding the right opportunity to ambush some ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts wouldn't be a problem.

After the nine-section jadeite came into Dugu Bo's hands, it looked at Dugu Bo and seemed to want to leave, but in the end it did not leave and obediently let Dugu Bo take it with him.

Perhaps they realized that Dugu Bo was no longer poisoned, but since they knew he was their master, they made do with it.

Su Mo was slightly surprised to see that the venomous snake had actually returned.

It wasn't a big deal that Dugu Bo could carry poisons; he just couldn't cultivate poison techniques anymore, so carrying poisons was still no problem for him.

"Now that you are alright, senior, I will take my leave!"

Having achieved his purpose for coming here, Su Mo was ready to leave.

"Alright, young friend, you may leave now. I need to calm down a bit. I'll visit you again at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy another time!"

Dugu Bo naturally had no objection to this, only saying that he would visit Su Mo.

"Take care, senior!"

After Su Mo clasped his hands in farewell, he turned and left.

After watching Su Mo's figure disappear, Dugu Bo turned back to look at his once vibrant herb garden, and felt another pang of pain in his heart.

"My old herbs..."

Dugu Bo sighed with heartache, not really agonizing over anything, just feeling a little sorry for him.

"Young friend Su Mo, you're quite the little monster. I wonder how you managed to take those two herbs..."

Then Dugu Bo looked at the location of the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Leaf and the Fiery Apricot and Delicate Vegetable, a hint of surprise appearing in his eyes.

Those two most peculiar herbs were ones that even he dared not touch lightly!

"I forgot to ask him what level he is now. Judging from his age, he should be younger than Yanzi. His soul power level shouldn't be higher than 40, right?"

"Hiss~ Daring to come here alone before even reaching level 40, that's incredibly bold!"

It wasn't until now that Dugu Bo realized just how extraordinary it was that Su Mo had walked into his lair alone.

Su Mo was unaware of all of this.

When he came in, he needed to use the Eight Spider Lances to protect himself, but now that he's leaving, he doesn't need to anymore.

Su Mo walked right inside the poison circle, but the toxins within it couldn't affect him.

"Indeed, my body is now immune to all poisons!"

Su Mo was actually testing her own physique, and the results were naturally very satisfactory.

"Su Mo, you just left that old bastard Dugu Bo there? Is he capable of leaving on his own?"

"I thought you were going to help him hunt spirit beasts and see if he could rebuild his cultivation!"

Bibi Dong followed beside Su Mo, and exclaimed in surprise.

"Since Dugu Bo didn't speak, he must be confident in walking out. After all, he was a Title Douluo before, and although he no longer has spirit rings and spirit skills, he still has level 40 spirit power, which is higher than mine!"

"There's no need to help him hunt down a ten-thousand-year-old soul beast. While I'm strong enough to deal with one now, fighting in the Sunset Forest is still too dangerous!"

"Whether Dugu Bo can retake the course or not, we'll know next time we see him. If he can, he'll definitely come looking for his granddaughter!"

"Now that we have the magic herb, we should leave as soon as possible!"

Su Mo smiled; he wasn't that curious.

Upon hearing Su Mo's words, Bibi Dong said nothing more, but flew into the air to continue exploring the map for Su Mo.

……

"Elders, I'll have to trouble you to help me find a suitable soul beast!"

"And we need to be quick; I can't leave the palace for too long!"

Outside the Sunset Forest, a young girl dressed in a golden palace gown spoke to two imposing men.

They said it was a bother, but their tone wasn't very respectful, as if it was only natural for the girl to ask them to do things.

"Yes, young master!"

"We will definitely help our young master find a suitable soul beast to absorb the soul ring as soon as possible!"

After hearing Qian Renxue's words, Bloodthirsty Douluo and Serpent Spear Douluo didn't think much of it and responded respectfully.

After all, the girl in front of them was Qian Renxue, the young master of their Spirit Hall, the granddaughter of Grand Elder Qian Daoliu, and the daughter of Bibi Dong, the current Pope of the Spirit Hall.

Their purpose in coming out this time is to help Qian Renxue find a suitable sixth spirit ring.

Because Qian Renxue's cultivation level has recently broken through to level 60, as long as she absorbs a suitable soul ring, she will become a genuine Soul Emperor.

Thinking of this, Bloodthirsty Douluo and Serpent Spear Douluo became very excited.

This is their young master! He's only 23 years old, yet he's already cultivated to the Soul Emperor level.

If Qian Renxue participates in next year's Soul Master Competition, she will have no rivals at all.

It should be noted that in previous years, it was extremely rare for a Soul King under the age of 25 to appear in the Soul Master Competition.

Their young master, Qian Renxue, is now at level 60.

Unfortunately, their young master has to continue pretending to be Crown Prince Xue Qinghe, so he doesn't have much time to cultivate. Otherwise, in another three or four years, he might be able to break through to the Soul Saint realm.

Even if it takes another six or seven years to break through, they believe that Qian Renxue will become the youngest Soul Saint in history.

"I'll start searching over there. She Long, you and the young master can search over there!"

After choosing a direction, Bloodthirsty Douluo told Serpent Spear Douluo and then entered Sunset Forest first.

As for Qian Renxue, she will be taken along by the Serpent Spear Douluo.

Although Qian Renxue's current strength would allow her to enter Sunset Forest alone without much trouble, they still didn't dare let her act alone.

Protecting Qian Renxue's safety is their most important task!

"Young Master, let's go in too!"

Seeing that the Porcupine Douluo had gone inside, the Serpent Spear Douluo spoke to Qian Renxue.

"Okay! Let's go in!"

Qian Renxue nodded, and then entered the Sunset Forest with the Serpent Spear Douluo, choosing a different direction from the Blood Thorn Douluo, to begin searching for a suitable soul beast for her.

Once inside, Serpent Spear Douluo searched back and forth slightly ahead, while she only needed to follow in the middle.

When it comes to finding soul beasts, she's definitely not as good as a Title Douluo, so she just needs to follow behind.

Actually, she wanted the Serpent Spear Douluo to go deeper inside to search, while she herself slowly searched in the back.

It was just a sunset forest; she didn't believe there was any danger there.

She knew that Serpent Spear Douluo would definitely not agree to leave her too far away in a place like Sunset Forest, so she didn't say anything.

"They still treat me like a child, protecting me!"

Qian Renxue pouted and muttered something in dissatisfaction.

But that's all. Years of infiltration have taught her that the Serpent Spear Douluo's approach is the safest.

"However, after absorbing the sixth spirit ring, I believe the two elders will be more at ease about my safety. Next time, I'll hunt for my own prey!"

Qian Renxue clenched her fist.

She longed for freedom and also wanted to regain her youthful beauty.

Because these are things she hasn't had for so many years.
