Douluo: Wuhun Zhuge Wuhou, Breaking Bad

Chapter 24 A Manipulated Life
"I've said it before, if Xiaoxue is tired, you can let someone else take over this plan."

"Grandpa, I have been doing this mission for so many years. How can I just change people?"

Seeing this, Qian Daoliu stopped trying to persuade her, "Xiaoxue, have you met your mother?"

"Of course I did, but only once."

A look of self-mockery appeared in Qian Renxue's eyes ever since she met that woman in the Pope's Palace that day.

In the next few days, she was sitting on the bench.

She actually thought that woman would change her mind, but it seems her expectations were too high.

Qian Daoliu was somewhat helpless, "Well, I heard about this matter from others. You are here to see Zhuge Jun, right?"

"Yes, I heard that he will be released soon?"

"Just in these two days. That kid has always been very mysterious." Qian Daoliu smiled faintly.

Qian Renxue's bright eyes turned dark, "Grandpa, can you tell me about that guy?"

"Why, Xiaoxue is interested in him?"

"Yes, I've always heard people say he's very powerful, but I don't think it's credible. I know grandpa would never lie to me."

Qian Daoliu walked slowly to her and reached out to touch her hair.

"grandfather?"

"I don't know how to evaluate Zhuge Jun. He is different from all the young people I have ever met." Qian Daoliu thought for a moment and said:

"This person is extremely cunning and good at scheming. He is obviously just an ordinary person, but he can play with a group of soul masters in the palm of his hand. There has never been such a person in the past, and perhaps there will never be one in the future."

"so smart?"

Qian Renxue can still remain skeptical about what others say.

But if it was her grandfather, then she would definitely believe it.

"Well, Xiaoxue, you should be very clear about what happened in Soto City two months ago, right?"

Qian Renxue frowned: "I know it must have been done by the Spirit Hall, could it be... the work of Mr. Wolong?"

"Yes, what a good trick of borrowing arrows from a straw boat. It seems that the empty city plan a few years ago could not be a coincidence." Qian Daoliu nodded.

Qian Renxue nodded as if accepting her fate, "It seems that this person is indeed a rare genius. Fortunately, he is from my Spirit Hall."

It's hard to imagine that there are such people in the world.

The empty city plan, the wooden ox and the flowing horse, borrowing arrows from a straw boat...are these really something that humans can do?
If an ordinary person can do one of these three things, he can be called a genius.

But these seemingly impossible things were actually done by Zhuge Jun. So it is really not easy to evaluate this person.

"pity."

"Grandpa, what's the pity?"

Qian Daoliu looked strange, "It's a pity that this kid is stubborn. He won't accept power or status, gold or silver, or even a beautiful woman."

"How could this be? What exactly does he want?" Qian Renxue became completely interested in this gentleman whom she had never met before.

She was eager to understand him and know more about him.

"It's precisely because he doesn't want anything that Grandpa can't do anything to him, and he is only loyal to your mother."

"My mother...did that woman promise Mr. Wolong something that we don't know about?" Qian Renxue questioned.

"It's possible, but it doesn't matter anymore."

"Why?"

"Because he is now considered half a member of the Temple of Worship. From now on, the Pope's Palace and the Temple of Worship will coexist peacefully."

……

On the way to the Pope's Palace, Qian Renxue had turned back into Xue Qinghe's appearance.

Even so, you can tell that she looks unhappy.

Because just now, Grandpa actually said that Zhuge Jun would be her future teacher!

Everyone in the Worship Hall voted unanimously in favor of this proposal, and even the Pope's Hall had no objection. Why did they control her life like this?
Even if you want to find a teacher for her, you should notify her in advance. What's going on now?

She hates having her life controlled by others, and she hates it even more when others make decisions for her!

So in a fit of rage, she ran to the Pope's Palace to demand an explanation.

In the Pope's Palace, she successfully met the woman sitting on the throne.

Seeing that she looked unhappy, Bibi Dong immediately dispersed the maids in the palace.

"What's the matter?" Bibi Dong lowered her head to handle government affairs and did not look at the person in the audience.

"Why?"

"Ok?"

Xue Qinghe clenched his fists and looked at her with gritted teeth: "Why do you make decisions for me? Who wants to be that person's disciple?"

"Oh, you are talking about this matter. This is a joint decision between me and the chief priest. If you are not satisfied with anything, you can go to your grandfather."

Bibi Dong seemed not to care about these things and was still concentrating on handling government affairs.

"you!"

"Of course, Mr. Wolong was forced by your grandfather to agree to this."

"He's still unwilling?"

Bibi Dong finally raised her eyes and put down the government affairs in her hands, "Yes, if your grandfather hadn't forced him, Mr. Wolong would not have agreed to accept you as his apprentice."

"???"

Qian Renxue's mind was full of question marks. From what she heard, it seemed that Zhuge Jun agreed to this matter only under threat.

Could it be that Qian Renxue was trying to get ahead of herself? This was too much!

"I know you are conceited and arrogant, and you will definitely not accept an ordinary person as your teacher." Bibi Dong rarely patiently explained, and she only heard her say lightly:
"But you have to know that a teacher doesn't necessarily only teach you how to practice. A teacher can also teach you something more meaningful."

"For example?" Qian Renxue was still not convinced.

Bibi Dong smiled slightly, "You will know when the time comes. I believe you will be willing to call him teacher in the end."

"Humph, I only know that Douluo Continent is a world where martial arts are respected. No matter how powerful Zhuge Jun is, he can't deal with a soul master."

What Qian Renxue said actually makes sense. After all, this is a world where fists matter.

No matter how powerful and resourceful Zhuge Jun is, he can't be more powerful than a Titled Douluo, right?

"I thought so before I met him, but now... hehe, you will understand."

Qian Renxue's face darkened, and she found it increasingly difficult to believe that this was what her mother would say.

She knew her mother. Bibi Dong was also a proud person. She always understood how important strength was.

But she could actually say such words, which shows how high Zhuge Jun's position is in her heart.

Could it be that Mr. Wolong is really that powerful?

"Anyway, I won't agree until I meet him..."

"Report!"

When Qian Renxue was about to speak, a guard hurried into the Pope's Palace.

Bibi Dong was not angry at this rude and disrespectful behavior, but just raised her eyebrows slightly.

"What's the matter?"

"Reporting to His Holiness the Pope, Mr. Wolong has come out of seclusion!"

"Ok?"

Bibi Dong stood up suddenly, an excited smile on her face, "He finally came out?"

"Yes, Your Holiness, Mr. Wolong would like to invite you to visit him."
