Douluo Continent: Qian Daoliu has had a crush on me for a long time

Chapter 5 Go to the Star Dou Great Forest

Unbeknownst to them, Ye Jingqiu had been at the Spirit Hall for three whole days, during which time everyone in the Spirit Hall treated her with utmost respect.

Ye Jingqiu knew that everything she had now was because of Bibi Dong. If it weren't for Bibi Dong, she would still be a little girl being bullied in a remote village.

Ye Jingqiu was very grateful to Bibi Dong, so he behaved exceptionally well these past few days.

But seeing this scene made Bibi Dong feel inexplicably heartbroken.

Ye Jingqiu's mother, Bibi Qiu, lived a carefree and unrestrained life from a young age, possessing an upward vitality that Bibi Dong had always admired.

That was something Bibi Dong never had. Ever since Qian Xunji brought her back to the Spirit Hall, it seemed that there was nothing else in her life besides cultivation.

At first, Bibi Dong wanted her younger sister to live a happy and carefree life. Now, Bibi Dong wants Ye Jingqiu to live a carefree and flamboyant life, even if it means being spoiled.

But the reality is that Ye Jingqiu is now so sensible that it breaks your heart.

Bibi Dong pulled Ye Jingqiu into her arms and asked softly, "Qiuqiu, do you want to go to school?"

"Go to school?" Ye Jingqiu was taken aback and turned to look at Bibi Dong. Going to school was a very unfamiliar word to her. In the small village, going to school meant high tuition fees. She never thought that she would be able to go to school in her life.

But now that Bibi Dong has given her this opportunity, Ye Jingqiu nodded vigorously and said, "I want to go to school, Auntie."

Bibi Dong hugged Ye Jingqiu tightly and said softly, "Okay, I'll have Elder Ju take you to hunt for the first spirit ring later. Do you want to play for a few more days? If you want to play for a few more days, we can go to school in a few days."

Ye Jingqiu shook his head and said, "Auntie, I've had a lot of fun these past two days. I want to absorb the spirit ring and go to school as soon as possible."

Bibi Dong nodded and said, "Then when Qiuqiu comes back, I will arrange for her to go to the Spirit Hall Academy. The Spirit Hall Academy can be said to be one of the top spirit master academies in the entire Douluo Continent in terms of both teaching staff and facilities. Auntie can rest assured that Qiuqiu will study there."

Ye Jingqiu nodded, then hesitated before saying, "Auntie, after I go to school, can I come home once a week? Grandma is getting old, and I want to spend more time with her."

Bibi Dong was taken aback for a moment, then nodded and said, "Of course, Qiuqiu, your aunt will send someone to pick you up every Friday from now on."

She paused for a moment and then smiled, "The Spirit Hall Academy belongs to the Spirit Hall. As the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall, you can be considered half a mistress of the Spirit Hall Academy. Qiuqiu can come back anytime she misses her grandma."

At this point, Ye Jingqiu hesitated before asking, "Auntie, could you please not tell anyone in the academy that I am the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall?"

Bibi Dong asked, somewhat puzzled, "Why, Qiu Qiu?"

Ye Jingqiu lowered her head and said, "I know that the identity of the Holy Maiden is very important in the Spirit Hall, but because of this, I am worried that there will be a gap between me and my classmates. So I want to enter the academy to study as an ordinary person."

Upon hearing this, Bibi Dong gave Ye Jingqiu an appreciative look and said, "Auntie is proud of you for thinking this way, Qiuqiu."

Just then, Yue Guan arrived. Bibi Dong nodded to him and said, "Take Qiu Qiu to the Star Dou Great Forest to hunt for the first spirit ring."

Chrysanthemum Douluo hesitated before speaking, "Your Holiness, should we go to the Beast Hunting Forest to hunt for the first Soul Ring? After all, the Star Dou Great Forest is full of dangers."

Bibi Dong looked at Chrysanthemum Douluo with a calm expression and said, "The soul beasts kept in the Beast Hunting Forest are all low-level soul beasts. Those soul beasts are not suitable for Qiuqiu."

Bibi Dong paused for a moment, then said, "Alright, you can ask Elder Gui to go with you later. Make sure Qiuqiu is safe. Also, the two of you must find a suitable soul beast for Qiuqiu as much as possible. Remember, Qiuqiu is going to follow the control-type soul master path, understand?"

Upon hearing this, Yue Guan's expression instantly turned serious. "Understood, Your Majesty the Pope."

When Bibi Dong looked down at Ye Jingqiu again, a gentle smile returned to her face. She said, "The relationship between soul beasts and us humans is very delicate, and the Star Dou Great Forest is fraught with danger. When we get there, you must stay close to Uncle Ju and Uncle Gui, understand?"

Ye Jingqiu nodded heavily and said, "I understand, Auntie, don't worry."

Yue Guan, listening from below, felt particularly uncomfortable. He was old enough to be Ye Jingqiu's grandfather, yet he was being forced to call him uncle, which was undoubtedly elevating Ye Jingqiu's status.

Without wasting any time, Yue Guan took Ye Jingqiu from Bibi Dong's hands and then took Ye Jingqiu's hand to find Ghost Douluo.

The Elders' Hall is not far from the Papal Palace. Here, every elder belonging to the Spirit Hall has his own room, but each elder also owns his own property in Spirit City.

Ghost Douluo was no exception; he was always mysterious and rarely appeared in the Elder Hall. So Yue Guan decided to take Ye Jingqiu directly to Ghost Douluo's house to find him.

Yue Guan looked down at the small Ye Jingqiu and said, "Holy Maiden, we are still far from the Ghostly Realm. May I carry you? That would be faster."

Ye Jingqiu's lips curved slightly, her eyebrows arched like crescent moons, and she said without any hesitation, "Of course, Uncle Ju." As she spoke, Ye Jingqiu opened her arms.

Yue Guan was taken aback. To be honest, even though he was so old, he had never held a child before. The only child in the Spirit Hall was the young master, but the young master's status was beyond question, and he couldn't just come into contact with him whenever he wanted.

The latest novel is first published here!

Moreover, the young master's relationship with His Holiness the Pope was not particularly close, and he had mostly stayed in the Hall of Worship, so he had even less of a chance to meet him.

I had heard before how cute and adorable children are.

Yue Guan used to scoff at it, but now she's completely charmed and her face is practically beaming with joy.

He bent down and picked Ye Jingqiu up.

As expected of a Title Douluo-level expert, Yue Guan was incredibly fast. Ye Jingqiu felt that he was even faster than the carriage she had ridden in to the Spirit Hall. She couldn't help but feel a little nervous and hugged Yue Guan's neck tightly.

The two quickly arrived at a mansion in the center of Wuhun City. Yue Guan didn't even knock on the door; he simply appeared at the doorway.

Ye Jingqiu hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Uncle Ju, isn't this inappropriate?"

"It's nothing bad. Your Uncle Ghost found out before we even entered the courtyard." As Yue Guan stood at the door, the door was opened from the inside, and it was Ghost Douluo.

"Saintess—"

"Uncle Ghost—" Ye Jingqiu's sweet voice rang out, which startled Ghost Douluo, who nodded somewhat awkwardly.

Because the Chinese New Year is coming soon, I plan to take a break for a while. I'm tentatively planning to update this book 2,000 words a day, and then I'll start updating 4,000 words a day after the New Year.
