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

Chapter 303 - Rabbit Brand Simple Food: Simply twist the neck to the right to eat.

Reaching a corner of the Imperial Garden, Qian Lingyun brushed aside a clump of tall grass and teased, "Hey, hey, what are you doing!"

A rustling sound of leaves rang out, and two guys with grass rings on their heads emerged from the haystack, their faces flushed.

"I was just worried that you two wouldn't get along, so as your father, I came to check on you!"

The old emperor spoke without changing his expression, but his eyes kept glancing at Yuma, as if asking: You led the way into the bushes, why aren't you saying anything? Say something!

"Yes, marriage is a serious matter, and we elders always have to be mindful of it." Yuma rubbed her forehead and shifted the blame back to the old emperor: "Yes, you're not mistaken, it was His Majesty who brought me here."

"You!" The old emperor's eye twitched. He wanted to say something more, but then stopped himself and silently bore the brunt of it all!

"Father, Mother and I will be heading back now. Farewell!" Qian Lingyun bowed and was about to leave with Yuma when the old emperor's face revealed his reluctance to part: "What? Aren't you going to stay in the palace?"

"Old Xu, why are you in such a hurry again! My daughter is getting married soon, what's wrong with wanting to stay home for a few more days?" Yuma frowned, pulling Qian Lingyun away, but Qian Lingyun patiently explained:

"I still have some things to take care of. There are quite a few elders in my family, and I need to inform them about my wedding!"

"Alright, alright, I grant your permission! Don't delay your important business!" The old emperor sighed leisurely, watching his sworn sister and daughter-in-law disappear from his sight in a flash.

"What did you and the Crown Prince talk about? You seemed so happy?"

Above Mingdu, Yuma suddenly asked a question.

"It was nothing, just some casual conversation!" Qian Lingyun replied dismissively. She grabbed Yuma's left hand and slowly stopped mid-air, saying:

"Mommy, go to the Duke's mansion and ask the Demon Queen and the others to return to the Demon Forest. I have some urgent business to attend to!"

"Okay, I understand!"

Yuma responded and sped off towards the Northern Duke's Mansion, while Qian Lingyun headed towards the Demon Forest.

The time for her return has come; it's time for her to let Zhongli Wu, that old codger, experience what it's like to be forced to abdicate.

In less than a year, the Demon Forest during the day was filled with diligent Holy Spirit Cult disciples, each wielding their Ghostly Shadows technique with incredible speed and agility. Even Tang Ya, the leader of the Tang Clan, felt ashamed of her own abilities in comparison.

"Greetings, Holy Maiden!"

Two evil spirit masters passing by, each with a lively rabbit tucked into their waistband, bowed to Qian Lingyun. Qian Lingyun pointed to the rabbits and asked, "Why are you wearing rabbits on your waists?"

The two evil spirit masters exchanged a glance, then picked up the rabbit and explained, "These rabbits are now part of the cultivation resources distributed by our Holy Spirit Cult! Although they are weak, they are still spirit beasts with some spirit power. They are small and light, so we drink their blood when we are hungry!"

With that, the evil spirit master twisted off the rabbit's head, lifted the Soft Bone Rabbit, whose four short legs were still twitching, high above his head, and began to devour it through the opening.

"So, you're not eating people anymore?" Qian Lingyun asked tentatively.

Another evil spirit master chuckled, tore off a rabbit leg, and chewed on it, saying with a smirk, "Hey! Humans aren't as effective as this! Aside from the brothers who play with souls, seventy percent of the disciples in the entire sect have already changed their tastes!"

"I understand, you guys go ahead with your work!"

After dismissing the two, we continued onward, finding rabbit remains scattered everywhere along the way.

As expected, 70% of the Holy Spirit Cult disciples have switched to eating soul beast rabbits. It has to be said that this is a truly unexpected change.

Ignoring the greetings from the evil spirit masters on the way, Qian Lingyun plunged into the offering hall as soon as she entered the Holy Spirit Cult headquarters.

Coincidentally, Xiao Chen is still the resident worshipper in the offering hall today. More than a year has passed, and after a long shift, he is still on duty.

"Holy Maiden, it's truly been a long time!" Xiao Chen looked at the bustling Qian Lingyun with slight surprise, pointed to the door behind him, and said, "The Grand Elder is inside playing cards with the Third and Fourth Elders!"

"Thank you for the reminder, Ninth... no, Tenth Master!" Qian Lingyun nodded and walked straight towards the door behind Xiao Chen.

"By the way, Holy Maiden, when is your sect's grand competition of ultimate skills for disciples held? This year, many disciples have gained insights into these ultimate skills, and they are all waiting to win a place in the competition and receive soul bones!"

Xiao Chen's reminder instantly made Qian Lingyun stop in her tracks. She stood there for a moment, thinking, then waved her hand and said, "Let's wait a little longer! Let me finish what I'm doing before holding this sect competition... no, sect grand competition!"

"Um."

Having received a fairly specific reply, Xiao Chen didn't say much more and continued to sit in his chair reading classic works to improve his self-cultivation.

"The Holy Maiden is here!" The Soul Slayer Douluo tossed over an 8, greeting Qian Lingyun with a teasing remark, "We're tired of playing cards, how about we play mahjong?"

"No need!" Qian Lingyun shook her head, strode to the small table, and handed the pendant Ye Xishui had given her to the Grand Elder: "Grand Elder, I need your help with something!"

"Hmm!?" The High Priest threw down the playing cards in his hand, took the pendant Qian Lingyun handed him, put it in his pocket, and sneered, "Old Ye really likes you, giving you this!"

The Grand Elder leaned back lazily in his chair, staring intently at Qian Lingyun, and said with a playful tone, "Speak, what is it?"

"I hope that the Grand Master can gather all the deities in the offering hall. I need your help to do something important."

"Hey, why don't you tell me what's going on that requires the entire Hall of Worship to be mobilized?" The Soul Extinction Douluo paused slightly, taking the opportunity to discard his bad hand.

"I think Zhongli Wu is getting old. The Holy Spirit Cult needs more ambitious and intelligent young people to lead it..."

"So, you're saying you want to force Zhongli Wu to resign from his position?!" The Grand Elder's lips curled into a strange smile. He leaned forward slightly and countered, "But... do you have the ability to force someone to resign?"

As soon as he finished speaking, an intense pressure swept through the entire room, and the tables, chairs, and furniture all crumbled under its onslaught.

The two Soul-Slaying Douluo narrowed their eyes and silently scattered the furniture fragments that were flying everywhere.

Faced with the overwhelming pressure sweeping in from all directions, Qian Lingyun lowered her eyes nonchalantly and forcefully confronted it head-on with her own soul power.

The moment the oppressive aura dissipated, Qian Lingyun seized the opportunity and unleashed her soul power at the Grand Elder.

"Huh?!"

Looking at the ice flowers on his palm, the High Priest frowned, a rare look of surprise appearing on his weathered face.

He coughed lightly and with a flick of his sleeve hid his hand inside, as if nothing had happened.

Of course, his composure was merely a facade; the large ice flowers the size of broad beans on the palm of his hand, hidden beneath his sleeve, showed no signs of fading for a long time.

He suppressed his curiosity and used his vast soul power to wash away Qian Lingyun's extremely cold soul power.

"I think I already have it! What do you think, sir?"

"I think so too," the High Priest awkwardly agreed, sighing, "Truly, a new generation surpasses the old! I really do seem to be getting old!"
