Douluo Continent Villain Simulator: Persecuting Qian Renxue at the Start

Chapter 105 How Much Time Do We Have?

Starlight is scattered, and the night is cool as water.

Su Cheng, disguised as Zhu Hongtao, stood outside the academy, waiting quietly.

Before long, a slender figure appeared from the gate of the Royal Academy in the distance, and then ran towards it with light steps.

Although the newcomer's face was still somewhat youthful, her figure was already quite well-developed and alluring.

Her aloof expression added an unusual charm to her.

It was Zhu Zhuqing.

"Dad, I'm here."

After stopping in front of Su Cheng, she spoke softly.

Under the influence of the soul bone, Su Cheng, who was perfectly disguised as Zhu Hongtao, silently looked at the other party and nodded slightly.

In fact, the frequency of these meetings has decreased from once a month to once every six months.

The reason is simple: he has already taught her almost everything he needed to. Apart from cultivation techniques and martial spirit characteristics, everything else can only be understood by Zhu Zhuqing herself.

The more meetings he had, the more flaws he would reveal. He didn't want to lose sight of the bigger picture for the sake of small gains, as this identity would be of great use in the future.

He has even decided that once this conversation ends, Zhu Hongtao's pseudonym can be temporarily withdrawn.

"Xiao Qing, you've done very well these past two years. Whether it's your soul power cultivation or your interpersonal skills, you've far exceeded my expectations. I have nothing more to teach you." Su Cheng looked at Zhu Zhuqing and said in a deep voice.

"Now that you've attached a second spirit ring to your spirit, it means you're ready to graduate from the academy at any time. From now on, you can rely on your own experience to improve. Whether you want to join a higher-level spirit master academy or choose another path is entirely up to you."

Zhu Zhuqing was stunned upon hearing this.

Although I knew this day would come sooner or later, I never expected it to be so sudden.

She hesitated, unsure how to begin.

"You don't need to overthink it. If you exceed my expectations in the future, I will hand over control of the family to you," Su Cheng said, ignoring her hesitation.

"To be honest, you've done a better job than your older sister and the others. I suggest that when you feel the time is right, you and Su Cheng talk to them together. But this is a matter between you sisters, so don't mention me. You have different talents and personalities, so my way of helping you will also be different."

"Is the timing right?" Zhu Zhuqing asked, somewhat puzzled, unsure of when would be appropriate.

"In this world, strength speaks for itself."

The next day.

As usual, after finishing their cultivation, Zhu Zhuqing and Su Cheng went together to the back mountain of the academy to practice their soul skills and martial soul fusion techniques.

And in this process, we can find each other's shortcomings and learn from each other's strengths.

That's what they say, but actually, most of the time Su Cheng was the one giving Zhu Zhu guidance on the list.

After all, his experience in applying soul skills far surpasses that of his opponent.

"What are your plans for the future? We've now advanced to Great Soul Masters and can graduate from the academy at any time."

After exhausting her soul power, Zhu Zhuqing took a break and looked at Su Cheng, asking softly.

For some reason, I suddenly felt a little nervous.

"I personally recommend that you join the Star Luo Advanced Royal Academy," Su Cheng casually replied.

"That's the first choice for the vast majority of noble children. Most of the kids in this junior academy will go on to study there later. You can also meet more people there. If you really have any ambitions, there's no place more suitable than Star Luo Royal Academy."

Zhu Zhuqing nodded slightly upon hearing this, secretly relieved.

This was also her own thought.

However, Su Cheng's opinion must also be considered.

Now that she has fully experienced the power of the Martial Soul Fusion Skill, she is naturally unwilling to give up this help, and even less willing to let Su Cheng escape her control in the future.

The others are fine; even if they are separated for a short period of time, it's not a big problem.

However, she always felt that she couldn't see through Su Cheng.

"However, there's something you need to think about carefully," Su Cheng said again.

"What?"

"Davis and Zhu Zhuyun are also in that academy, you understand what I mean?" Su Cheng said calmly.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Zhuqing's expression darkened slightly, and her heart suddenly felt heavy.

Then he remembered what his father had said last night.

Turning to Su Cheng, he said, "Then let's wait a few years. We'll go find them after we've cultivated to the Soul Venerable realm."

"Whatever you want." Su Cheng nodded, looking noncommittal.

With their cultivation speed, plus the extra two levels of soul power provided by their second soul ring that transcends age limits, they can reach the Soul Master realm in less than three years.

If we go to Zhu Zhuyun's door and talk to her first, we might be able to resolve this conflict peacefully.

Zhu Zhuyun is not very old now, and her relationship with Davis may not be very deep, so there is a high possibility that she could be turned against him.

However, he will have to stay by Zhu Zhuqing's side when the time comes.

Otherwise, if Zhu Hongtao's identity were to be exposed due to their interactions, it would likely cause a lot of trouble.

"..." Zhu Zhuqing stared at Su Cheng without saying anything more.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Su Cheng asked, somewhat puzzled, and frowned.

"Su Cheng, is there anything you want to do?" Zhu Zhuqing suddenly asked.

"Yes, I have."

"What is it?"

"I can only consider this question after I'm free," Su Cheng said casually, stretching. "If you achieve your dreams, I suppose I'll be completely free then."

Zhu Zhuqing nodded and looked into the distance.

Su Cheng had his own plans for the future.

They don't have much time left, but it should be enough.

According to the original timeline, Qian Renxue would launch a coup under Bibi Dong's urging in about ten years.

However, a significant factor contributing to the early launch was the pressure exerted on Tang San and his companions.

However, there is no Tang San, the transmigrator, in this world.

Without this interference, Qian Renxue's usurpation of the throne in Tiandou can continue.

Even if she succeeds in launching a coup, and with the help of a large number of Soul Masters from the Spirit Hall, it will still take her a considerable amount of time to fully control the situation in the Heaven Dou Battle.

Based on this, the establishment of the Martial Soul Empire is estimated to be five to ten years later.

The initiation of a national war also requires a significant amount of time and effort.

Similarly, it's estimated that Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong of the Spirit Hall will also become gods much later.

Bibi Dong is definitely still undergoing the test of the Rakshasa God.

However, she has been unable to become a god in the original timeline.

It wasn't until Angel God Qian Renxue and Sea God Tang San appeared one after another that she took that final step, stimulated by the events.

Based on this calculation, Su Cheng and Zhu Zhuqing are estimated to have about twenty more years of developmental period.

In Su Cheng's plan, they must at least cultivate to the Soul Saint level within this timeframe, and the higher the level, the better.

Only at this level will Su Cheng's final plan have a chance to take effect.

"With the active cultivation of the Nirvana Sutra, the aid of medicine, and the absorption of the extra energy from the cross-year limited spirit ring, coupled with the continuous improvement of the spirit's quality, reaching this level of cultivation should not be difficult."

Su Cheng glanced at Zhu Zhuqing, who was sitting not far away, lost in thought, and silently said to himself.
