The little girl wasn't short, and she was somewhat withdrawn.

She was being led by the hand by Dugu Bo, and upon seeing Ling Feng and the others, she instinctively tried to dodge them.

"Senior Dugu, you've arrived."

Ling Feng and his group stepped forward to greet them.

"Yes, this is my granddaughter, Dugu Yan. You can call her Yan Yan."

"Yanyan, these are the friends I told you about. You will become very good friends with them in the future."

Dugu Yan nodded blankly, clearly not understanding the meaning of the word "friend" since she had never had any playmates.

The first to approach her was Qian Renxue.

Qian Renxue has become much more cheerful now and has gradually come to understand the fact that her mother does not like her.

Upon seeing a little girl who resembled her younger self, she was immediately filled with sympathy.

"Hello, Yanyan, my name is Qian Renxue, you can call me Xiaoxue or Xue'er."

"From now on, I'll be your friend. I'll protect you in the Spirit Hall, and no one will be able to bully you."

Looking at Qian Renxue's radiant smile, Dugu Yan felt as if she were a true angel descended to earth.

"Hello, Xiaoxue, my name is Dugu Yan."

Since they were all around the same age, the group quickly became friends.

Dugu Yan followed suit and began cultivating alongside them.

Seeing this, Dugu Bo was also gratified. Perhaps he should find a place to retire. It would definitely be better for Yan Yan to be here than with him.

Seeing Dugu Yan's genuine smile, Dugu Bo was also greatly moved.

The Spirit Hall is definitely the best place for me to retire. Putting aside the Hall of Offerings, once I join the Spirit Hall, I will become the fourth elder of the Spirit Hall.

This identity will not only allow Dugu Yan to fully integrate into this circle, but will also provide her with a better path for cultivation in the future.

The path of cultivation is incredibly difficult, and Dugu Bo, who achieved the title of Title Douluo through his own efforts, naturally had a deep understanding of this.

Having gone through those arduous journeys himself, he naturally didn't want his descendants to go through them again.

Having withstood frost and dew, and cleared away thorns and brambles, a small piece of land has been acquired.

Suddenly, a figure dressed in golden armor appeared beside Dugu Bo.

"Old Poisoner, what are your reflections on life this time?"

The person who arrived was Yue Guan, sent by Qian Xunji.

Knowing that the two had some conflicts, the intention was to help them resolve their differences peacefully.

"Chrysanthemum Pass, what brings you here? Looking for another beating?"

"Don't think that just because you and Old Ghost became Title Douluos a few years earlier than me, I'm not afraid of you if we really fight."

Dugu Bo snorted coldly.

"Ugh, what's the point of all this fighting and killing all the time?"

"Old poisoner, we're all old now, we don't have the spirit we had when we were young anymore."

"Look at your granddaughter, she's doing just fine here. She has her own friends, and her food, clothing, and shelter are all top-notch. Isn't she a million times more comfortable than living with an old man like you?"

Although Dugu Bo had anticipated what Yue Guan was going to say next, he unusually did not refute it.

Indeed, if we set aside his personal grudges with Yue Guan, the Spirit Hall would be the best place for him to settle down.

"So, do you want to join the Spirit Hall? If you do, you will become the fourth elder of the Spirit Hall."

"Oh, right, there's something else I need to tell you. There are quite a few level 89 peak Soul Douluos in the Spirit Hall who are all vying for the position of Fourth Elder."

"For example, Serpent Spear, Porcupinefish, Sea Turtle, and Spirit Kite, all of them are confident that they can break through to the Title Douluo realm within a few years."

"If you arrive late, you'll have to wait your turn."

Dugu Bo pondered for a moment.

"Let me consider this matter. Prepare a house for me as a place to stay. I will be staying in Wuhun City for the time being."

"By the way, the personal grudges between you, me, and Old Ghost must also be settled."

Chrysanthemum Douluo pinched her orchid-like fingers, her laughter sharp and chilling.

"Hehehehehe..."

"You old poisoner, you've been treating me, Yue Guan, like your servant."

"It just so happens that Old Ghost and I haven't made a move in a long time. It would be perfect to shut you up and put an end to your arrogance."

Ling Feng didn't know Dugu Bo's specific choice, only that Dugu Bo had settled in a very high-class place.

Moreover, not long after, the sounds of a battle between Title Douluos could be heard outside Wuhun City.

Since then, Dugu Bo has been cultivating in seclusion in Wuhun City, occasionally bringing Dugu Yan to Lingfeng's place to play.

This situation lasted for a month, and Dugu Yan had become accustomed to being at Ling Feng's house.

"Brother Lingfeng, my grandpa said that tomorrow is the New Year, and he asked me to ask if I could have New Year's Eve dinner with him at your house?"

New Year's Eve dinner?

Ling Feng was slightly stunned. Calculating the time, it seemed that it really was almost Chinese New Year.

During this time, in order to break through level 30 as soon as possible and get the opportunity to go out and train, he completely forgot about the flow of time in the outside world.

It seems like tomorrow is New Year's Eve.

According to the rules of Wuhun City, on New Year's Eve, the whole family usually prepares a large table full of food.

In previous years, Ling Feng's family would usually consist of his parents, and Qian Renxue, Jin Chen, and Qian Xunji would also come.

However, the other elders only came once, while Jin'e, Qianjun, and Jiangmo Douluo would come every year.

Based on past practice, this year should be similar.

However, this year is the year that Ling Feng and his two companions awaken their martial souls and display their talents. Perhaps Qian Daoliu will bring a few of his retainers to visit Ling Feng's home.

"Yanyan, of course! I'll ask my mom to make extra portions of your favorite sweet and sour pork and braised chicken wings, okay?"

"Okay, okay, Yan Yan loves to eat this the most."

Compared to Dugu Bo's barely edible dishes, Tuoba Yue'er's cooking was like comparing heaven and earth.

Originally, Dugu Yan was very thin. In the short period of one month, she ate almost every meal at Ling Feng's house, and her face also had a little bit of extra fat.

"Alright, Yan Yan, go play with Nana and the others first. I still need to cultivate."

Ling Feng could already sense the bottleneck at level 30, and he was about to break through it.

Qian Renxue, on the other hand, only reached level 26, an increase of only 1 level compared to when she absorbed the soul ring 5 months ago.

After all, she spent most of her time honing her soul power.

Jin Chen, on the other hand, improved by nearly two levels, and he will probably be able to reach the level of a Great Soul Master around the age of seven.

Ling Feng sat cross-legged, constantly visualizing the image in his mind.

The reason he was able to improve so quickly in the past few months was due to the significant increase in his mental strength, which made him more efficient at absorbing soul energy from the air.

In terms of mental strength alone, he is already comparable to a typical high-level Soul Master.

His visualization had reached a critical point; the Holy Dragon of Light and the Holy Dragon of Darkness had been visualized as twins spiraling together. Every time he tried to take the next step, he would suffer pain far exceeding that of ordinary people.

"Break it!"

Ling Feng had become accustomed to the pain, so this time he did not back down and went straight for the level 30 bottleneck.

The visualization in his mind changed instantly, with two holy dragons of light and darkness intertwined, followed by bursts of dragon roars echoing throughout his consciousness.

"Have you completed the first level of the visualization practice?"

P.S.: Happy Lunar New Year's Eve to all my friends! It would be even better if you had any votes.
