Douluo Continent: The Peerless Tang Sect, Angels and Rakshasa Return

Chapter 110, Section 106: I bought 30 million…

Finally, Zhongli Wu touched his eyes and whispered, "I really can't refuse you. This is the last time. Tell me, how much do you want?"

"Hehehe, I knew the leader would be the most generous," Qian Lingyun chuckled, raising her hand to force out a "one".

"Another hundred million? Why don't you go..." Zhongli Wu was about to utter the word "rob" when he heard Qian Lingyun explain in a low voice, "Oh, it's not a hundred million, it's ten million!"

"Only ten million? It's not a small amount, but... much less than I expected." Hearing that ten million was an acceptable figure, Zhong Liwu wiped the sweat from his brow, let out a long sigh, and generously pulled out a gold card recognized by the Sun Moon Empire's royal family. He tossed it to Qian Lingyun, saying, "Here, I was worried it wouldn't be enough for you, so I'm giving you thirty million. You're not a kid anymore; it's time to learn how to make money yourself!"

"Hehehe, thank you so much, Master!" Qian Lingyun happily accepted the gold card representing 30 million gold soul coins and spun around in place.

You know, she was already prepared to be rejected by Zhongli Wu, but who knew... she could still make such a big sum of money. It seems she can buy a lot of good things!

Wu Yun and Zhang Peng, standing to the side, could only watch Qian Lingyun with suppressed amusement, remaining silent in the shadows.

Just then, Feng Ling pushed open the door and walked in. She looked at Zhongli Wu, then at Qian Lingyun and the other two, and asked curiously, "Sect Leader, you wanted to see me?"

"Xiao Feng, take the third, fourth, and eighth brothers to the Hall of Offerings and call the seventh and ninth elders to go to Star Luo City with Rakshasa?" Zhongli Wu held Feng Ling's hand and whispered, "The purpose of this trip is to find out the whereabouts of the Phoenix Saintess and the Blue Silver Saintess. At the same time, you must ensure Rakshasa's safety."

"Among the eight Title Douluos, there are two Super Douluos and two Level 9 Soul Masters. With such a lineup, they could easily kill even the Emperor of Star Luo. Could it really be all for a single Holy Maiden?"

"No, no, no, it's not that simple. Luo Sha probably has her own plan," Zhongli Wu glanced at Qian Lingyun subtly, offering a hint:

"If what she wants to do will not harm the interests of our church or shake its foundation, you just need to cooperate."

"Okay, I understand. When do we leave?" Fengling nodded and asked again.

"You'll have to ask her about that."

After saying that, Zhongli Wu calmly sat back in his large chair and leisurely sipped the fragrant tea on the table that had been cold for a while.

"Holy Maiden, when shall we depart?" Feng Ling asked, frowning and turning to the side, her narrow phoenix eyes filled with a mixture of confusion and curiosity.

"Tomorrow! We'll set off for Star Luo City tomorrow. I've calculated it; the Soul Master Competition is just around the corner, so if we go a month in advance, we can book a room. If we go any later, there won't be any available," Qian Lingyun replied, counting on her fingers with feigned innocence.

"You don't actually want to drag us to watch the game, do you?" Feng Ling blurted out the question that Zhong Liwu hadn't asked.

"How could that be? It's just that the Soul Master Competition is a mixed bag of forces, and I need to stir things up even more."

As she spoke, Qian Lingyun sat comfortably on Zhongli Wu's desk and sneered, "In the world, only Shrek Academy and Body Sect are the two major Soul Master forces that can pose a threat to us. The Soul Master Competition is a gathering place for all kinds of forces. With just a little provocation from us, we can make them fight to the death. As their strength diminishes, our advantage will become even greater!"

"Would the Body Sect really participate in a competition where kids fight like this?" Feng Ling asked, puzzled.

"Heh heh heh, the competition between academies is nothing more than a contest between young people. After graduation, students will naturally join forces. With so many academies participating, who can guarantee that none of these students possess a true martial spirit?" Qian Lingyun snatched the teapot, held the spout high towards herself, took a big gulp, and then sneered a few times, saying contemptuously:

"The Body Sect has always adhered to the principle that no matter how talented a person is, or whether he or she acknowledges himself as a disciple of the Body Sect, as long as he possesses the Body Martial Soul, they will treat him as a member of the sect."

"The saying that all Soul Masters of the Body Form are disciples of the Body Form has been around for thousands of years, and it's not just a saying."

"At the very least, our Holy Spirit Cult cannot utter the statement that all evil spirit masters in the world are disciples of the Holy Spirit, can we?"

"But Holy Maiden, how can we instigate a conflict between the Body Sect and Shrek Academy?!" Feng Ling asked again.

"Isn't there the Sun Moon Empire's Royal Soul Master Academy? We can just secretly assassinate them, frame them, and then watch them fight like dogs!"

"I see. We were shortsighted." Feng Ling sighed softly, cupped her hands to Qian Lingyun, and said with emotion, "Truly, heroes emerge from among the young. The Holy Maiden's idea is indeed reasonable and well-founded. This time, the Holy Maiden will take the lead."

"You flatter me!"

After humbly returning the greeting, Qian Lingyun raised her head to look at the group and said softly, "We will depart tomorrow evening. I hope you elders will be lenient with me along the way!"

After speaking, Qian Lingyun walked towards the door without looking back and quickly disappeared from their sight.

Zhongli Wu gazed thoughtfully in the direction Qian Lingyun had left, and murmured, "At such a young age, she's already able to use the situation on the continent and insidious methods to sow discord among the various forces. If the Holy Spirit Sect falls into her hands, who knows, she might actually be able to realize the long-cherished wish of so many past leaders!"

At this point, Feng Ling, Zhang Peng, and the others bowed slightly and congratulated, "Congratulations, Master! May our Holy Sect prosper!"

Back in her room, Qian Lingyun comfortably walked into the bathroom, about to take off her clothes and have a good shower, when she felt a chill down her back. She sighed and turned her head to look.

Sure enough, Ye Xishui was sitting on her bed eating the snacks she had bought...

"Grandma, you love snacks so much, I'll buy some and send them to you next time..." Qian Lingyun looked at her treasured food scattered on the bed, ready for anyone to enjoy, and her heart felt like it was bleeding.

"I don't like eating snacks," Ye Xishui said, shaking her head seriously.

"Then what about you..." Qian Lingyun pointed to her bed, on the verge of tears...

"I just enjoy eating what other people hide and seeing how uncomfortable they are," Ye Xishui pouted, comfortably leaning back on the pillow, staring into Qian Lingyun's eyes and whispering, "Look, every time I finish your food, your expression is so funny, I just love seeing that expression on your face."

"You win!" Qian Lingyun sat on the sofa, puffing out her cheeks, staring intently at the snacks in Ye Xishui's hand.

After a while, Qian Lingyun could no longer hold back. She let out a howl and rolled around on the ground, crying and screaming.

"Haha, alright, alright, I won't eat yours anymore." Ye Xishui put down the snacks beside her, used her soul power to throw Qian Lingyun, who was rolling on the ground, onto the sofa, and said seriously, "I heard from Zhang Peng that you asked the sect leader for eight Title Douluos to go to Star Luo City!?"

"Yes, we're going to find the Phoenix Saintess, and while we're at it... let's cause some trouble!" Qian Lingyun blurted out everything she could without thinking. Then, she stared at Ye Xishui with wide eyes and pleaded, "Grandmother, you wouldn't forbid me from going, would you? I know you always dote on me the most!"

"Hiss..." Ye Xishui gasped, pretending to be uncomfortable as she rubbed her arm, and said with disgust, "Seriously, that's so cheesy! Let me tell you, little girl, I've been tired of sweet talk for centuries. You should save your breath!"

With that, Ye Xishui gave Qianling a sharp rap on the forehead. "I don't care where you go off to, but you have to complete the goals I set for you! You're leaving tomorrow, right? You'd better finish them today, or you're not going anywhere!"

"Ah!" Qian Lingyun cried out in pain, leaping to Ye Xishui's side and clinging to her leg, pleading, "No! Don't do this!"
