Douluo Continent: The Martial Soul Ascends to the Dragon Sword, Summoning the Dragon God!

Considering how insane this woman is,

Lin Du forced his gaze away using his willpower.

Beautiful women are indeed pleasing to the eye.

But the woman in front of me is too dangerous.

If you're not careful, she'll devour you completely.

Lin Du didn't want to risk his life.

"Mother,"

Qian Renxue's face held an almost humble intimacy.

But Bibi Dong didn't even glance at him.

He merely glanced at Qian Daoliu.

"The Great Offering,"

"What is it?"

Seeing that Bibi Dong ignored him as always,

Although I was mentally prepared,

But Qian Renxue was visibly disappointed.

His eyes were red and swollen.

A faint, crystalline shimmer could be seen.

"We've encountered a promising young talent today."

"I have already taken him into my Douluo Palace."

"He's come to you to officially appoint him as the Young Master of the Douluo Hall."

"Power is equivalent to being worshipped by the Douluo Palace."

Qian Daoliu felt sorry for his granddaughter.

But now is clearly not the time to comfort her.

So he pretended not to see it.

State directly the purpose of your visit today.

"The right to be worshipped as an equal?"

"Granted."

"But I am a little curious,"

"What kind of talent does this promising young man, as the Grand Master speaks of, possess?"

"To have attracted someone as reclusive as you, a high-ranking official, to personally come to me for the investiture ceremony, is..."

Bibi Dong's gaze finally fell on Lin Du.

Plain as water

But it weighs as much as a thousand pounds!

"A top-tier weapon spirit no weaker than the Seven Kill Sword."

"Innate full soul power,"

Qian Daoliu remained calm.

Reveal Lin Du's talent for dealing with outsiders.

"Such talent!"

"He certainly deserves to be the young master of the Douluo Hall."

"only,"

"It's somewhat inconvenient for a child like him to be around all of you who are dedicated to him."

"My Spirit Hall is still lacking a Holy Son."

"I wonder if the High Priest would be so kind as to grant me this honor?"

"Just for the sake of this child,"

"What does the Grand Master think?"

Bibi Dong parted her red lips slightly,

He wanted to recruit Lin Du as his subordinate as soon as he opened his mouth.

"I'm also very good at educating children."

"You can tell that just by looking at Xue'er."

"You already have disciples who need to be taught."

"You don't need to trouble yourself with Lin Du anymore."

Qian Daoliu's smile was serene.

With ease.

"Then thank you for your understanding, Great Master."

"Lin Du, right?"

"Welcome to the Spirit Hall."

"Nice to meet you."

"Consider this ten-thousand-year-old Icefire Wolf left arm soul bone a small gift to you."

"Nothing much usually happens."

"You can also come and visit my Papal Palace more often,"

"I have high hopes for outstanding younger generations."

"They've always been very considerate."

Bibi Dong raised her scepter and tapped it lightly.

A fragment of her left arm's soul bone appeared before her.

Red and blue light shone on it.

The faint howling of wolves reached Lin Du's ears.

"Lin Du,"

"Since it's a gift from the Pope,"

"Then accept it."

Just as Lin Du was hesitating whether or not to speak,

Qian Daoliu had already made the choice for him.

"Thank you, Your Holiness."

see,

Lin Du stopped being coy.

He happily accepted the ten-thousand-year-old soul bone given to him by Bibi Dong.

"You are welcome,"

"I will issue the decree of your investiture shortly."

"Soon afterward,"

"You will become the young master of the Douluo Hall and the new Holy Son of the Spirit Hall."

As Bibi Dong finished speaking,

Lin Du was taken aback at first.

He then turned to look at Qian Daoliu.

At this moment, Qian Daoliu's expression remained unchanged.

It was as if he hadn't heard Bibi Dong's words at all.

Seeing this,

Lin Du simply cupped his hands in agreement.

No matter how you calculate it, he won't lose out.

Soon,

The three left the Papal Palace.

Qian Renxue had long lost the excitement she had shown earlier about wanting to come along.

She silently followed behind Qian Daoliu and Lin Du.

His expression grew increasingly gloomy.

None of the three spoke a word the entire way.

Until I stepped into the Douluo Palace

Qian Daoliu then turned to look at Lin Du.

"You want to ask me why I tacitly approved Bibi Dong's appointment of you as the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall?"

Upon hearing this,

Lin Du remained silent.

He simply nodded slightly.

"He who eats another's food is bound to him, he who takes another's money is bound to him."

"Since we've asked you to accept her gift..."

"Having another title as the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall won't make much difference."

"Besides, no matter how you look at it,"

"It's all in your best interest."

"but,"

"You'd better be more careful too."

"In this world,"

No one is kind to you for no reason.

Qian Daoliu stood with his hands behind his back.

His words were plain.

"I see,"

"The Great Offering,"

Lin Du nodded slightly.

This principle

He understood perfectly well.

"Good that you understand."

"but,"

"She really put in a lot of effort to win you over."

"Although this soul bone is only a little over ten thousand years old..."

"But its advantage lies in being the soul bone of the Ice and Fire Wolf."

"These kinds of soul beasts are extremely special."

"Four claws tread on fire, feathers turn to ice."

"Born with the ability to control ice and fire elements."

"It is precisely because of this unique characteristic..."

"That's why their soul bones are so strange."

"Normally, only a soul bone aged 100,000 years can reliably provide two soul skills."

"But even if the Icefire Wolf's soul bone hasn't been around for 100,000 years..."

"There's also a chance it can provide two soul skills."

"Although the probability is very low,"

"Yet it still attracts huge crowds."

Even a soul bone that's a thousand years old...

"It could sell for an astronomical price."

"From this point on,"

"You can also tell that this pope is indeed very wealthy and powerful."

"What's wrong?"

"Have you ever considered switching your allegiance to Bibi Dong?"

Qian Daoliu had a smile on his face.

He looked like he was joking.

"You jest, Your Excellency."

"If it weren't for you and the young master today..."

"I might not even have the chance to awaken my martial soul."

"Although I am just an ordinary citizen,"

"But we also know that a drop of kindness should be repaid with a spring of gratitude."

"Even if the Pope really did send me away with a soul bone that's ten thousand years old,"

"I won't switch my allegiance to her."

"If the High Priest does not believe,"

"You can take this soul bone back."

As he spoke,

Lin Du then handed the Ice-Fire Wolf Soul Bone to Qian Daoliu.

There wasn't a trace of reluctance on her face.

"You're a wonderful child in every way."

"They're just a bit too clueless about humor."

"Let's go."

"I'll take you to see my old buddies again."

"Bibi Dong already gave you a gift when we first met."

"Those of them who are elders,"

"If there's no indication of anything..."

"I'm going to give them a good workout."

Qian Daoliu chuckled silently.

He then led Lin Du into the inner hall.

"Big brother,"

"how?"

Did Bibi Dong agree?

They had just stepped into the inner hall,

A burly man came forward to greet them.

A thick, yellowish beard covered his face.

It looks like the mane on a lion's face.

It is exceptionally majestic.

"Thank you for your concern, Fourth Master."

"His Holiness the Pope has agreed to the High Priest's proposal."

Lin Du gently cupped his hands in greeting to the Lion Douluo.

He seemed very polite.

"No need to be so polite with them."

"They're all a bunch of stingy old men."

"The first thing Bibi Dong did upon meeting him was give him the left arm bone of a ten-thousand-year-old Ice and Fire Wolf."

"They didn't even bother with a token gesture!"
