In Douluo Continent, his martial soul mutated into Blue Silver Grass.

Chapter 218 A Nighttime Meeting at Moon Pass, The Strange Chrysanthemum Reaching the Sky

At the end of the day, when Chrysanthemum Douluo and Qian Renxue were about to leave, Lin Hai secretly transmitted his thoughts to Chrysanthemum Douluo.

Chrysanthemum Douluo's eyes narrowed, and he made a plan in his heart.

However, Yue Qinghe tried her best to persuade Yue Guan and Qian Renxue to stay. Qian Renxue remained calm, making it impossible to know her true thoughts. Yue Guan, unable to receive instructions from the young master, had no choice but to refuse in the end.

Yue Guan's primary duty was to protect Qian Renxue, so no matter how much Yue Qinghe and the others tried to persuade him to stay, he couldn't possibly agree.

……

After leaving Lin Hai's house and boarding the carriage for the return journey, Qian Renxue remained silent. She wasn't sure if it was because of Lin Hai's words earlier that day.

Elder Ju.

"Hmm? Young Master?"

"Am I a failure?" Qian Renxue raised her eyes to look at Yue Guan.

"Young Master, why do you say such a thing?"

"I consider myself to have decent talent, but both Tang San and Lin Hai, whom I know, have been too outstanding."

"Young Master, there's no need to belittle yourself. You are a Soul Master with an innate level 20 Soul Power, a feat unprecedented in the Douluo Continent. Moreover, you have the Grand Elder and others behind you. You don't need to compare yourself to them. What you have, they may never have the chance to have in their entire lives."

"However..." Chrysanthemum Douluo hesitated.

"Elder, please speak freely!"

"I think you've really let your talent down, young master."

"If you hadn't gotten involved in these political struggles, you would definitely be a powerful Soul Master by now."

"Do you think so too?" Qian Renxue asked softly.

"Me too? Has anyone else said that to you, young master?"

"Yes, Lin Hai also mentioned it to me."

"I don't know how to evaluate myself, but my grandfather has never objected to any of the steps I've taken so far, nor has he given me any advice. His unconditional support makes me feel at ease, and I have always trusted him."

"But Lin Hai talked to me a lot today, and for a moment I don't know whether my grandfather's doting on me is a good thing or a bad thing?"

"What did that brat say? Young Master, should I go and teach him a lesson?" Yue Guan said this because he was afraid that his grand-nephew would anger Qian Renxue. He had followed the Spirit Hall for many years and knew all too well the shady dealings within the Spirit Hall.

However, Yue Guan was new to the area and didn't know how complicated the relationship between Qian Renxue and Lin Hai was. At the same time, she underestimated Qian Renxue's magnanimity.

In the original timeline, Qian Renxue was able to temporarily set aside her father's murder in order to recruit Tang San, which shows how calm she was.

"No need," Qian Renxue waved her hand.

"He's right, and you're not wrong either. Perhaps I'm the one who's wrong."

"For the first time, I began to doubt whether my grandfather's education of me was correct. My first half of life was peaceful and uneventful. I was like a flower in a flower garden. When I was thirsty, someone would water me; when I was hungry, there was sunshine. There was no cold rain in summer and no harsh winter in winter. Flowers in greenhouses are far less strong than flowers that grow naturally in dense forests."

"Although I am very unwilling, my motivation for cultivation is indeed to make that woman look at me more."

"Young Master..." Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan was also an old member of the Spirit Hall, so he naturally knew about the conflicts between Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue. When Qian Renxue said such a thing, Yue Guan thought that she had been hurt by something Lin Hai had said.

Qian Renxue waved her hand, indicating that she was fine.

……

Back at Qian Renxue's temporary residence, Qian Renxue, now reverting to her Xue Qinghe appearance, returned to her luxurious room.

Two hours later, while Xue Qinghe was still handling government affairs, Yue Guan suddenly appeared in front of her, knelt down on one knee, and bowed his head.

In order to cultivate the crown prince, the Snow Night Emperor had given him some power early on. Therefore, she was responsible for managing some political affairs. However, this power was not military or political power, but rather the power over people's livelihood.

"What's wrong, Elder Ju?" Qian Renxue put down the documents in her hand and asked Yue Guan.

"Young Master, I would like to ask you for leave."

"Is it over there? Yes, it's approved," Qian Renxue said lightly.

"Thank you, young master."

"Old ghost!" Chrysanthemum Douluo shouted into the air immediately afterward.

Yue Guan shouted, and Ghost Douluo Ghost Phantom suddenly appeared behind Qian Renxue.

"What's wrong?" a ghostly, hoarse voice asked.

"I entrust the young master's safety to you."

"You don't need to tell me, I can do that myself."

Yue Guan stared at the ghost and solemnly said, "If there is any emergency, send me a signal immediately."

"Um!"

"Alright, nothing will happen in Sylvester City. Go if you want." Qian Renxue waved her hand.

Yue Guan didn't say anything more, and the next moment, his figure disappeared.

Qian Renxue opened her eyes after a while, and said softly, "Elder Ghost, you may also step down!"

"Yes, young master!" The ghost disappeared the next moment.

After Yue Guan and Gui Mei left, Qian Renxue composed herself, put down her official duties, and silently began to cultivate.

……

A third of the night had passed, but Lin Hai did not rest. Instead, he stood on the roof, while his family members had already gone to bed.

"You brat, what brings you to me with telepathic communication?" The words arrived before the person did.

The next moment, Yue Guan appeared beside Lin Hai, his eyes fixed on Lin Hai.

"Come with me, Uncle," Lin Hai said without wasting any words.

Yue Guan stared at Lin Hai's retreating figure, who dared to speak to him in such a commanding tone. He was taken aback at first, but then quickly understood. What could he do? Spoil him, of course! After all, he hadn't been able to protect them before, and now he was too busy spoiling them to even think about disciplining Lin Hai!

Yue Guan followed Lin Hai all the way to the basement where Lin Hai was researching soul tools.

The basement where Lin Hai conducted his research on soul tools was very large, with a large hall of about 100 square meters and several rooms.

Inside the hall was a huge table covered with scattered papers. From a distance, Yue Guan could see some patterns and blueprints for weapons that he had never seen before on those papers.

The wall directly opposite the huge table was almost entirely filled with shelves, each section of which contained metals of varying quantities. Each section also had a small slip of paper with the name of the corresponding metal written on it.

On the left is another table, covered with finished soul tools.

On the right side of the basement was a rather large iron object, something Yue Guan had never seen before.

This item is the result of Lin Linhai's research over the past few months: the Soul Guidance Cannon.

There are several rooms inside. One of them is filled with miscellaneous items, another is where Lin Hai rests, and the other two rooms are unused and left idle.

"Hey kid, what's this?" Yue Guan walked to the table displaying soul tools and picked one up casually.

"A soul tool!" Lin Hai replied succinctly.

"What? This is a soul tool?!" Yue Guan looked quite surprised after hearing Lin Hai's reply.

"Um!"

"You actually know how to make soul tools? Wasn't that technology lost for many years?"

"It was indeed lost for many years, but I managed to revive it."

"How did you conduct the research?"

"Reviewing the soul tool isn't very difficult, it's just that nobody's willing to try."

"High-level Soul Masters often have strong mental power. They can discover some secrets in the Soul Tools that have been passed down by using mental probing."

"It's just that the higher the level of a Soul Master, the less they care about Soul Tools. In their eyes, Soul Tools are just tools. They neither have that thought nor put that effort into doing it."

Yue Guan fell silent because Lin Hai was telling the truth. Take himself for example; he had always treated soul tools as mere tools and had never thought of restoring the method of making soul tools. He would only sigh a few times after hearing that the method of making soul tools had been lost.

"Then why did you come up with the idea of ​​restoring the method of creating soul tools?"

"It's very simple, because in my eyes, a soul tool is not just an auxiliary tool; it can also unleash powerful force."

Lin Hai gave a brief explanation, knowing full well that his few words wouldn't make Chrysanthemum Douluo realize the power of the soul tool. Lin Hai also didn't intend to let Chrysanthemum Douluo know the power of the soul tool he was researching, because if Chrysanthemum Douluo and Yue Guan knew about its power, Bibi Dong would find out, which would be very disadvantageous.

The current situation, where Yue Guan knows about soul tools but doesn't have a detailed understanding of them, is already quite good.

"Then..." Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan wanted to ask again, but his voice stopped a moment later.

Because Lin Hai revealed his magical pouch, which could store living creatures.

In front of Ju Yueguan, Lin Hai took out a jade box from his Ruyi Hundred Treasures Pouch and slowly opened it.

In an instant, a familiar aura emanated from the jade box.

"This...this...this is..." Yue Guan stammered, his voice trembling slightly. His nose twitched, his face remained largely unchanged, but a look of horror appeared in his eyes.

Yue Guan swiftly approached Lin Hai, her eyes fixed intently on the object in Lin Hai's hand.

"A rare and precious treasure, the extraordinary Tongtian Chrysanthemum!!!" Yue Guan's voice trembled slightly, his emotions running high.

"What a perfect figure!" Yue Guan's hand wanted to touch the Qi Rong Tong Tian Chrysanthemum in the jade box. When his hand was only half a foot away from the Qi Rong Tong Tian Chrysanthemum, the Qi Rong Tong Tian Chrysanthemum seemed to sense the same aura and also emitted a golden light.

The closer Yue Guan got to the Qi Rong Tong Tian Chrysanthemum, the brighter the light emitted by the chrysanthemum became. It was at this moment that Yue Guan's martial soul, the Qi Rong Tong Tian Chrysanthemum, possessed him, and the nine soul rings appeared one by one.

However, just as Yue Guan was about to touch the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum, he withdrew his hand under Lin Hai's surprised gaze.

Yue closed her eyes, her body trembling slightly.

"Hoo~" After a while, Yue Guan let out a soft breath. He forcibly suppressed the desire in his heart.

Because of his martial soul, Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan has an extreme love for flowers, especially rare and precious flowers of immortal quality, which he holds in special respect.

The owner of this flower is Lin Hai. Before Lin Hai gave his consent, he felt that any action he took on the Qirong Tongtianju was a desecration of the Qirong Tongtianju.

"Little... Little Hai!" Yue Guan called out awkwardly, after all, he was used to calling him "brat" before.

"Grandpa!" Lin Hai said gently.

"Could I... perhaps I could take a look at your Qirong Tongtianju?" His voice trembled as he spoke of Qirong Tongtianju, revealing his feminine side, and even his eyes became gentle and respectful.

"Of course!" Lin Hai took out the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum from the jade box and handed it to Yue Guan again.

Yue Guan accepted it tremblingly.

"Ah! What a beautiful flower." He knew the Qirong Tongtianju better than anyone.

The Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum is a large chrysanthemum with a beautiful purple color. Strangely, each petal looks fluffy and adorable. The whole chrysanthemum is a single, unified flower, yet it has no fragrance. The central stamen rises more than half a foot above the petals, and the tip of the stamen shines with a faint golden light.

Yue Guan gazed at him with fascination, admiring him for a long time. Finally, she reluctantly handed him back to Lin Hai.

Looking at Chrysanthemum Douluo who had returned the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum, Lin Hai shook his head.

"Uncle, since you know about the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum, you must also know a lot about rare medicinal herbs!"

Yue Guan held the rare and precious chrysanthemum in her hands, looking at Lin Hai with complicated emotions.

Logically speaking, Lin Hai absorbed the Fiery Apricot and the Eight-Cornered Ice Grass, while Yue Guan possessed the Immortal-grade Flower Martial Soul, the Extraordinary Chrysanthemum, and should be extremely sensitive to herbs and flowers that are also Immortal-grade.

However, when he first met Lin Hai, Yue Guan did not actually sense any aura of immortal herbs on Lin Hai.

This isn't Yue Guan's fault; it's Lin Hai's. After Lin Hai's martial soul evolved into the Blue Silver Emperor, the aura of the Blue Silver Emperor completely masked the auras of the Fiery Apricot and the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass.

As the supreme ruler of the Blue Silver Grass clan, the Blue Silver Emperor is itself a celestial plant. Moreover, the Blue Silver Emperor is Lin Hai's martial soul, so it is only natural that the Blue Silver Emperor should easily suppress the Fiery Apricot and the Eight-Cornered Mystic Ice Grass.

"Qi Rong Tong Tian Ju is a neutral and divine medicinal herb. When consumed, it can circulate qi in the limbs, unblock the blood vessels in the eight meridians, and help one cultivate an indestructible body."

"You brat, you're exceptionally talented. If you consume this rare and powerful Chrysanthemum, you'll definitely reach that level!"

Yue Guan still cared about the bloodline left by his sister. Although he desperately wanted the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum, as an elder, he still wanted to leave the best for his descendants.

"No, with the talent you've shown so far, you might even reach the realm of a god." Yue Guan became more and more excited as he spoke.

Lin Hai: This old man is quite unpredictable. He calls me Xiao Hai when he needs something from me, but he calls me brat when he doesn't.
