Douluo's Spirit Pearl Divine Sword

The great revenge has been taken. Now, Bibi Dong is just trapped by the shackles of the past and can't get out of it. In comparison, aren't those common girls who were tortured to death by nobles or soul masters even more miserable? Not to mention revenge, they lost their own lives and no one sought justice for them.

Qian Renxue was incredibly clever. Tianlin immediately enlightened her, saying, "You're right. She's tragic, but not the most tragic. There are many women on the continent who are more tragic than her. Besides, with my father's death, this matter is over. She shouldn't take her anger out on others anymore. As her daughter, I need to pull her out of hatred."

"Furthermore, I want to seek justice for more women who have suffered misfortune like her and that ordinary girl. That avalanche, I will one day tear it to pieces!"

"Well said, that's my Xue-jie!" Tianlin laughed. Seeing that Qian Renxue had returned to normal, Tianlin realized that they seemed to have been a bit too intimate. "Um, Xue-jie, could you please get out of my arms first? My clothes are all wet with your tears."

"No! I still have something to ask you." Qian Renxue leaned against him and asked in confusion, "Why do you want to resolve the feud between me and my mother? You should know that since you are unwilling to surrender to my Spirit Hall, then we are enemies. The Hall of Worship and the Hall of the Pope are hostile to each other, which is the best way for you to maximize your benefits. Otherwise, if the Spirit Hall is united, our strength will be maximized."

Seeing that he couldn't push Qian Renxue away, Tianlin let her have her way and said, "The reason is what I said before, I want to get a promise from you. I think the secret I just told you should be enough."

Qian Renxue raised her beautiful eyes, still glistening with tears, and asked, "What promise?"

"I will never massacre a city!" Tianlin said solemnly. "The future war on the continent will be a contest between us, the Soul Masters, the nobles, the royal family, and the army—those who possess power. Even if I am defeated one day and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is wiped out by your Spirit Hall, then the losers will be the villains, and I will have nothing to say. However, war should not involve civilians excessively. They will already be displaced because of the start of the war. If we were to carry out a massacre, it would be against the will of Heaven."

"What do you mean? Do you think I, Qian Renxue, would do something so heinous?" Qian Renxue left the embrace that she had lingered in and looked at Tianlin with dissatisfaction.

“Of course you wouldn’t, but Bibi Dong might not.” Tianlin had already discovered that the world he had transmigrated to was more like an anime world, and the Bibi Dong in this world seemed to be even more insane than in the original work.

For example, Gengxin City was massacred because the blacksmiths' association there helped the Tang Clan. Now, although they are not helping the Tang Clan, they have helped the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and I'm afraid the result will be the same.

If Tianlin were a true saint, he should have abandoned the Blacksmiths' Association by now and advised them to stop interfering in the affairs of the mainland, which might have given them a chance to survive. But he is a fake one and would never give up such a huge piece of the pie as divine weapons.

However, even if it's a fake, he can't just take the benefits and leave like Tang San in the original story. He needs to find a way to completely resolve the worries about Gengxin City.

Chapter 335 The Promise Between the Two: Oslo in Peril

"Xiao Tian, ​​I don't think Mother is that kind of person, so you don't need to worry." After learning the whole story, Qian Renxue, who could distinguish right from wrong, directly forgave Bibi Dong for her years of coldness.

Instead, she felt sorry for Bibi Dong's suffering over the years and subconsciously spoke up for her.

Tianlin shook his head. "The original Bibi Dong wouldn't have done that, but it's not certain now. Sister Xue, as a descendant of angels, you should be able to tell that I've already begun the divine test."

“The deity I inherited comes from the City of Slaughter, where there are two divine lineages. One is the God of Law Enforcement, the God of Judgment, the God of Asura, and the other is the God of Rakshasa, who is in charge of evil thoughts. I received the God of Asura, while your mother received the God of Rakshasa.”

"The Lord is evil!" Qian Renxue was shocked. After returning to the Hall of Offerings, she had already begun the Divine Trial and naturally knew how much the Divine Trial affected the examinee.

If it's a deity that governs evil thoughts, then the deeper one goes, the more easily one is influenced by that deity. No wonder Bibi Dong has become increasingly extreme in recent years.

"How could my mother have inherited such a divine position?"

"We have to thank your good father for this. If it weren't for him, Bibi Dong wouldn't have harbored such deep hatred. Hatred and anger are among the strongest of all evil thoughts, so it's no wonder that the Rakshasa God took a liking to her. Fortunately, Bibi Dong before she turned evil was kind-hearted, which is why she wasn't so easily corrupted by the divine position. In addition, she still had people she cared about in this world: Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang, her disciple Hu Liena, and you, her biological daughter Qian Renxue. Otherwise, I'm afraid she would have already completed the divine inheritance." Tianlin laughed.

"You mean, Mother cares about me?" Qian Renxue was somewhat incredulous. Everyone could see that Bibi Dong had been indifferent to her all these years, and she really couldn't believe that Bibi Dong truly cared about her.

“There definitely is. Bibi Dong may not even know how much she cares about you, but when you are in mortal danger, I guarantee she will instinctively stand in front of you!” Tianlin took Qian Renxue’s hand and encouraged her. “So, you have to stop your mother from falling into evil completely. Only you can prevent the Spirit Hall from carrying out such an act as massacring a city.”

Tianlin played a trick here. He wanted to use Qian Renxue to hinder Bibi Dong. The more cold-blooded and ruthless a person is in the position of Rakshasa God, the easier it is to inherit. Conversely, the more worries a person has in their heart, the more difficult it is to pass on the position.

When Bibi Dong no longer harbors such hatred, the difficulty of inheriting the position of Rakshasa God will increase exponentially. Even if she ultimately succeeds due to her extraordinary talent, the timeframe will inevitably be significantly delayed.

This gave Tianlin more time. After all, he started the divine test much later than Bibi Dong. Now that so many variables have appeared, who knows if Bibi Dong will complete the divine inheritance ahead of time? If that happens, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will be in big trouble.

No matter how talented Tianlin is, he will need more time to surpass those geniuses who have been cultivating for many years.

Qian Renxue also understood Tianlin's meaning. If she continued to be at odds with Bibi Dong, she would have no way to interfere with Bibi Dong's thoughts. Whether she wanted to advise Bibi Dong or hoped that her temperament would return to what it was like back then, the most important step was to resolve the enmity between mother and daughter.

"Xiao Tian, ​​don't worry. I promise you that no matter what kind of battle we have in the future, my Spirit Hall will not vent our anger on innocent people, whether we win or lose. If we win, we will rule the world; if we lose, we will accept defeat with equanimity!"

"Okay, I believe you!" Tianlin nodded; at least on this point, the two had reached a consensus.

After finishing their conversation, the two walked side by side into the city. This time, neither of them flew, and they even hoped that the journey would be longer. On the way, Qian Renxue suddenly remembered something and said, "By the way, Xiao Tian, ​​I need you to promise me something."

Tianlin waved his hand, "I know what you want to say, Sister Xue. I, Jun Tianlin, am not such a despicable person. I assure you, I will never use your mother's past as a means to damage the reputation of your Spirit Hall. Apart from you, me, your mother, and your grandfather, I will not tell anyone else about this, including my master, Uncle Ning, and Rongrong!"

Qian Renxue smiled slightly, "Then, I believe you too!"

"By the way, old man Jin E doesn't count. Who knows if that old geezer even knows about this? Even if he does, it certainly wasn't me who leaked it, but your grandfather who told him. Go find those two old geezers and settle accounts." Tian Lin needed to clarify this point first. After all, Jin E's status in the Spirit Hall was equivalent to Chen Xin's in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, so it wasn't surprising that he knew many secrets he shouldn't know.

"Xiao Tian, ​​who are you calling an old man? Those are my own grandfather and Grandpa Golden Crocodile! Show some manners!" Qian Renxue couldn't help but scold.

This scene is strikingly similar to the time back in the Heavenly Dou Empire, when Tianlin showed no aristocratic manners in the palace and didn't even greet Prince Xuexing. As his elder brother, Xue Qinghe had to apologize to Xuexing while also educating Tianlin.

At least for now, the two are not enemies.

Tianlin was unaware that his act of secretly exchanging promises today would unknowingly change the fate of many people.

There are two old schemers hiding in the shadows, and they've definitely been tricked by Tianlin this time.

In addition, there is Tang Hao, who cleared his name of killing Qian Xunji. From this point of view, he should be grateful to Tian Lin. Unfortunately, at this time, he not only has no intention of repaying Tian Lin, but he is also about to do something that will make him fight Tian Lin to the death.

Inside the Star Dou Great Forest, two men were searching for soul beasts, seemingly looking for suitable ones to advance their own level.

One of them was Tianlin Brothers, Oslo, who had just broken through to level 60 and came here to obtain his sixth soul ring. The other was a protector sent by the family, a Soul Saint of level 70 or above. The Oslo family was not large, and it was quite rare for them to be able to hire a Soul Saint as a protector.

"Sigh, it's been so long, and we still haven't found a suitable soul beast!" Osro sighed.

Seeing the anxious Oslo, the guard reassured him, "Young Master, there's no need to rush. Once you reach the sixth ring, the limit for a soul ring is already 20,000 years. We need to try our best to find one that's close to that age, otherwise we'll be wasting your talent."

Osro nodded and said with a smile, "That's true. I am a member of the Royal Fighting Team, so I can't just find a trash spirit ring and fall behind. But it would be great if Xiaotian were here. With him, everything would be twice as efficient. After this advancement, I'll go to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School to visit him for a few days!"

Just as Oslo was engrossed in his activities, he was completely unaware that behind him was a man shrouded in a black robe, wielding the Haotian Hammer, his eyes filled with murderous intent.

This person was Tang Hao. He came to seek revenge for the attack on the Haotian Sect by the Tiandou Empire. While everyone was wondering why the Tiandou Empire suddenly attacked the Haotian Sect, he thought of another question: how did they know about the Haotian Sect's secluded place?

The only disciples outside were him and Tang Yuehua, but neither of them would betray their own sect. So he began to investigate and finally found out something from a Haotian disciple guarding the mountain: a few days before the great battle, a boy had used a clone to enter the village at the foot of Haotian Mountain and was killed by the disciple guarding the mountain with the Haotian Hammer.

This was too much of a coincidence. The sect was attacked as soon as a stranger entered the village. Tang Hao immediately confirmed that this person must have leaked the sect's address.

According to the disciples guarding the mountain, the person was very young, but possessed the strength of a Soul King and also had the ability to create clones.

This made the screening process very easy. After all, there aren't many young people who can reach the Soul King level. Combined with the physical characteristics described by the mountain-guarding disciples, Tang Hao quickly found Oslo.

"Oslo, although I don't know why you colluded with the Spirit Hall, let's start by settling scores with you for attacking my Clear Sky Sect!" Tang Hao said coldly.

Although he has been expelled from the sect, he will still not let go of anyone who harms the Haotian Sect. Tang Hao is the kind of person who, even if the sect mistreats him a thousand times, he still treats the sect like his first love.

At this time, Tianlin was unaware of the disaster that his brother was about to encounter. He was strolling through the city with Qian Renxue. It was a short distance, but it took them more than half an hour to finally return to the Blacksmith Association.

Everyone rushed over, anxiously checking if their young master or sect leader was injured.

In front of her subordinates, Qian Renxue reverted to her aloof and serious demeanor, looking at Tianlin and saying, "Jun Tianlin, your swordsmanship is indeed extraordinary. Today, we fought to the death, and neither side won. Let us settle our differences on the battlefield another day."

"Alright, we will fight even if we cannot win, and we will win if we do. I'm waiting for you anytime!" Tianlin was also filled with fighting spirit.

Unaware of the situation, Ghost Leopard Douluo thought the two were truly engaged in a life-or-death battle. He secretly regretted not being able to help his young master, but was also relieved that his young master was alright. After all, even a true titled Douluo had easily fallen under the Heavenly Scale Sword, so even though his young master was strong, he was probably no match for him.

The Serpent Spear Douluo, who knew the inside story, was completely speechless. "Are you sure you went to fight a life-or-death battle? How come neither of you has a single injury?"

He had a deep understanding of how terrifying the attack power of Jun Tianlin's demonic sword and the holy power of the young master's six-winged angel were.

And the scene where the two of you came back together with smiles on your faces was practically a hand-holding moment!

I, Serpent Spear, am not well-educated, so don't try to fool me. What kind of life-or-death battle would be like this?

Qian Renxue knew she couldn't hide it from She Long, but she didn't care. Her expression remained unchanged. As long as she wasn't embarrassed, it was others who would be. After exchanging a few harsh words with Tian Lin, she left with her men.

Now she just wants to go home as soon as possible and find Qian Daoliu to further confirm the truth of what happened back then. It's not that she doesn't believe Tianlin, but this matter is too important, and only Qian Daoliu's words can serve as decisive evidence.

If it is true, then she will no longer run away. As the successor of the Six-Winged Angels and the descendant of the Qian family, she will sincerely apologize to her mother, Bibi Dong, on behalf of her father.

Just as she was leaving, Tianlin secretly sent her seven words via telepathy: "Be patient, take it slow!"

Although Qian Renxue did not understand his meaning, she still turned around and nodded at him.

The person who was most upset at this moment was Miles from the Spirit Hall. He had come with a large group of people full of confidence to take revenge, but they left with nothing to show for it. He was really unwilling to accept this.

Chapter 336 Becoming Emperor

Qian Renxue and her entourage left reluctantly. If she could, she would like to stay here with Tianlin for a few more days, but now she has more important things to do.

After seeing Qian Renxue off, Tianlin prepared to return to his sect, but he also needed to deal with one person first: Miles of the Martial Soul Main Hall.

He was spared back then in the hope of using him to summon Qian Renxue. Now that the goal has been achieved, there is no need for him to live. Putting aside the crime of making a move on Ning Rongrong in front of him, it was also for the sake of the Blacksmith Association. Once Tianlin leaves, this petty guy will definitely vent all his anger on the Blacksmith Association.

He had already told Qian Renxue about this on the way back, and Qian Renxue had no objection. She had already inquired and found out that since Miles became the main hall master, he had been bullying men and women and committing all sorts of evil deeds. She herself wanted to clean house.

But since Miles is still nominally a member of the Papal Palace, she doesn't want to cause any more trouble with her mother, so she'll leave it to Tianlin to handle.

Therefore, she also had to leave with her people as soon as possible. Otherwise, if she were there, she would have to protect Miles both morally and logically. If she watched him being dealt with by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and did nothing, wouldn't the countless forces under the Spirit Hall be in a state of panic? How could Tianlin kill people under such circumstances?

After Qian Renxue left, Tianlin returned to the third-floor balcony alone. The outcome of this conversation was not to his liking. In the end, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Spirit Hall still had to confront each other. Was it really a fight to the death, with one side completely annihilated?

Seeing that Tianlin was in a bad mood, Ning Rongrong walked to his side, took his hand, and didn't say a word. She didn't know what Tianlin and Qian Renxue had talked about, and though she wanted to comfort him, she didn't know how to express it. She could only quietly stay by his side.

Just then, Long Gong walked over, leaning on his dragon staff. This guy was basically using his martial spirit as a crutch.

"Xiao Tian, ​​that girl rejected your offer, didn't she?" Long Gong suddenly asked.

Tianlin's eyes widened immediately. He seemed to know something, but he hadn't told anyone about it except himself and Ning Fengzhi. Could it be that the Dragon Lord's wisdom was so amazing?

Long Gong shook his head and said, "You don't need to think too much. I don't know anything. I don't know what you suggested to that girl, nor do I know what she refused. This is a question the sect leader asked me to ask. He said that you would definitely try to meet that girl from the Spirit Hall this time you came out, and he instructed me to ask you this question after you meet her and come back. I will also tell you the sect leader's other instructions based on your answer."

Tianlin suddenly realized that it was Ning Fengzhi, that old fox, who had figured out his actions again.

"That's right, she refused. Senior Long Gong, what was Uncle Ning's next sentence?"

Long Gong did not reply, but instead took out a thick letter and handed it to Tian Lin. "The sect leader said that you should read the first two pages first. If you agree, you can continue to turn the pages. If you do not agree, all plans will be terminated. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will remain the same as before."

Tianlin took the letter but didn't open it immediately. It seemed that Ning Fengzhi had other backup plans. He also knew Ning Fengzhi's meaning: if Tianlin did not agree to the new plan, then the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's development policy would be restored to its original state, and they would do everything in their power to destroy the Spirit Hall.

Although Qibao has offended the Empire because of what happened before, the Empire can't do anything to them now that the sect is strong enough.

Tianlin opened the letter. The first page read, “Xiaotian, when you see this letter, it means your plan has failed. Actually, that was within my expectations. I have been Xue Qinghe’s master and disciple for many years and have a certain understanding of her character. She could not possibly agree to my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School becoming a self-sufficient entity after the unification of the continent. Otherwise, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School would be the next Spirit Hall.”

“In this respect, you are not as good as her. Your so-called ideals are always going with the flow. You are neither as firm as her, nor do you have her determination to give up everything for her ideals.”

"There's something I need to tell you, Xiao Tian. No matter how many great contributions you've made to our sect, your position is limited to vice sect leader. The position of sect leader will always belong to the Ning family, and only those who inherit the Seven Treasures or Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda can hold it."

"Moreover, my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will always be just a sect, and will never establish a country. Are you willing to remain just a deputy sect master until you become a god?"

"So now it's time for you to change. There's only one way to both unify the continent and completely protect your sect!"

The first page ends here, filled with dense writing, but the second page has very few words.

But even these few lines of text made Tianlin's heart tremble.

"Break free from the shackles of the sect and become emperor, Xiao Tian! Uncle Ning can't give you the position of sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, but he can gather the power of the entire sect to help you ascend to the supreme position on the entire continent. You possess the strongest martial soul and talent in the world, so how can you continue to live under someone else's roof?"

"Become emperor! Become emperor! Become emperor!!!"

From this letter, Tianlin could fully sense how excited Ning Fengzhi was when he wrote it, especially the last three words about becoming emperor, which contained his deep expectations for him.

"I think I've fallen into a misconception. I've always hoped that the Spirit Hall would let us go, but I've overlooked the fact that we don't need their help. One day, our strength will surpass theirs, and then it will be us who let them go!" Tianlin said with a self-deprecating laugh.

Upon hearing this, Long Gong nodded. "Yes! Although I don't know what the sect leader wrote for you, Xiao Tian, ​​what you said is very true. It won't be long before you break through to the title level. What can the mere Spirit Hall do to you, or to my sect?"

"That's right, as long as Brother Jian is here, I'm not afraid of the Spirit Hall at all!" Ning Rongrong said with a smile, holding Tianlin's hand.
