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

Chapter 92 The Return of Sendoryu

It should be noted that although Qian Daoliu is a member of the Spirit Hall and the Grand Elder of the Hall of Worship, he rarely sets foot in the Papal Palace.

The door opened, and the person who entered was indeed Qian Daoliu.

He walked in slowly, standing in the light, his shoulder-length platinum blonde hair gleaming, his face as white as jade, and his golden eyes filled with a deep chill.

"What kind of soul bone?"

His gaze fell on Ye Jingqiu, and his pupils trembled slightly. Then, a powerful force erupted from his body.

Ye Shiyu, Bibi Dong, and Lu Fangbin released powerful forces almost simultaneously, subconsciously resisting the power emanating from Qian Daoliu.

However, the undercurrents among the group did not affect Ye Jingqiu, as the three of them simultaneously released powerful energy to protect him.

The fourth force comes from the Thousand Streams.

Qian Daoliu ignored everyone and looked at Ye Jingqiu with a serious expression, scrutinizing her from head to toe, as if trying to determine if she was injured.

At this moment, Ye Jingqiu's face, which was as smooth as cream, still had traces of blood that had not been wiped away, with two crimson lines running from the corners of her eyes to her chin.

The same was true on both sides of his ears, and his body was covered in blood.

Qian Daoliu spoke in a deep voice, "Ye Jingqiu, are you injured?"

Ye Jingqiu was stunned, but Bibi Dong was the first to react. She quickly reached out and wiped the blood off her face, revealing her fair complexion.

"Qiuqiu is not injured. This happened when she was absorbing the soul bone. She's fine now."

Upon hearing this, the powerful killing intent that had erupted from Qian Daoliu disappeared.

Bibi Dong narrowed her eyes, feeling something was off, and turned her gaze to Qian Daoliu.

Bibi Dong was brought to the Spirit Hall when she was young. Although Qian Daoliu did not appear often, he was Qian Xunji's father after all. As Qian Xunji's only disciple, she actually met with Qian Daoliu quite a few times.

For so many years, Qian Daoliu had always appeared indifferent to everything, and this was the first time he had shown his emotions so openly.

Bibi Dong found it strange, but she didn't think much of it; worrying about Ye Jingqiu was a good thing.

Qian Daoliu is a peerless Douluo with great strength, and with him around, Ye Jingqiu feels safer.

It's a good thing from any perspective.

Although Ye Jingqiu didn't know what had happened, she could sense something was wrong from the atmosphere among them, but she wasn't quite sure what it was.

She spoke slowly, "Great High Priest."

Qian Daoliu nodded slightly. "I heard you accepted the divine succession?"

Ye Jingqiu was somewhat surprised. Not many people knew about this, so how did he find out?

However, she did not choose to hide it from the "teacher" who had taught her. She said, "That's right, High Priest. I have accepted the divine succession of the Guixu Bell Emperor. I am absorbing soul bones now for the first test of the divine position."

Qian Daoliu nodded solemnly. "Come with me, I have something to tell you."

Ye Jingqiu was stunned. She hadn't finished absorbing the soul bones yet. She had originally planned to absorb all three soul bones in one go so that she could go hunt for soul rings.

She glanced at Bibi Dong, who nodded slightly and then said, "Grand Elder, I'll trouble you to take care of Qiuqiu's first test."

Qian Daoliu nodded slightly without saying a word, then turned and left.

"Go ahead." Bibi Dong gently nudged Ye Jingqiu.

She quickly walked forward to catch up.

Qian Daoliu was not moving fast, perhaps to accommodate Ye Jingqiu, he walked very slowly.

Ye Jingqiu followed behind him. "Grand Elder, you're back?"

No one responded.

"High Priest, have you come back for dinner so late? Would you like to eat something at the Papal Palace?"

No one responded.

"Great Elder, how long will you be staying this time?"

"No one responded."

Ye Jingqiu awkwardly shut her mouth. She could sense that Qian Daoliu's aura was very low, so she wanted to speak up to ease the atmosphere, but she didn't expect that Qian Daoliu wouldn't buy it at all.

Qian Daoliu didn't know what was wrong with him today.

On the way back to the Hall of Offerings, they ran into Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo, who had just come out of Spirit City.

After a brief greeting, he was about to leave when the two called him back.

When he learned that Ye Jingqiu had been chosen as the successor to the divine position, he felt a sudden sense of panic for no reason.

He was the guardian of the divine position, and he knew all too well the dangers involved. It was undoubtedly extremely dangerous for Ye Jingqiu to inherit the divine position now.

The chances of success are slim, especially if the other party is a first-level deity, in which case the difficulty of inheritance will only increase.

At that moment, Qian Daoliu admitted that his heart, which had been calm for decades, trembled.

The latest novel is first published here!

Even so, it was nothing compared to the panic I felt when I saw Ye Jingqiu's face covered in blood.

Why is this happening?

Qian Daoliu suddenly stopped in his tracks and turned to stare intently at Ye Jingqiu.

Ye Jingqiu was forced to stop. By this time, the bloodstains on her face had been wiped clean by Bibi Dong, and she now wore a fawning smile.

But strangely, it doesn't make people dislike it.

Qian Daoliu suddenly remembered the little white cat he had raised when he was a child.

The lifespan of a Soul Master is so long that the little white cat died in his arms.

At that moment, Qian Daoliu seemed to have an epiphany.

So he mistook Ye Jingqiu for the white cat he had when he was a child. No wonder.

"Follow me to the Hall of Offerings." With that, Qian Daoliu walked forward.

Ye Jingqiu stood there stunned for a moment. She had no idea what was going on. For some reason, Qian Daoliu seemed a little strange today.

It was late at night, and both the Papal Palace and the Hall of Worship were completely silent. Occasionally, a few patrolling guards would come along, and they would simply bow quietly.

When Ye Jingqiu returned to that familiar training ground, he felt a mix of emotions.

She underwent a long period of grueling training here.

Qian Daoliu stood still, his expression calm, and asked, "What kind of soul bone did you absorb?"

Ye Jingqiu slowly spoke, "It's the head soul bone."

Qian Daoliu frowned deeply. "The Pope ordered you to absorb it?"

Ye Jingqiu was stunned, wondering why he reacted this way. "That's right."

"That's ridiculous! Your soul power is too low right now. What kind of powerful soul bone could you possibly absorb? You should absorb one after you become a Soul Saint."

He paused, then asked with a serious expression, "What kind of soul bone did you absorb? And what are its skills?"

Ye Jingqiu said, "What I absorbed was the skull of the Soul-Seizing Fox, with 90,000 years of cultivation, a mental type, and my soul bone skill is Illusionary Soul Gaze."

"Release an area-of-effect mental shock, forcibly stunning the target for two seconds and marking them with a Soul Tear status, increasing subsequent damage by 30%, and granting immunity to all mental control effects during the duration of this skill's use," she said, enunciating each word clearly.

Qian Daoliu slowly shook his head.
