Douluo Continent: Reincarnated as the Rock King Emperor, Wandering the Mortal World

Chapter 151: The Beauty Trap?

As the saying goes, perseverance pays off. After surviving countless near-death experiences, Ghost finally completed the second awakening of his martial soul.

The ghost's original martial soul awakened for the second time, reaching the silver level, but not the gold level.

The main reason is his potential and energy intake.

Below the Title Douluo level, the highest level a martial soul can reach is the Silver-level Second Awakening.

Only those who have reached the title of Douluo and whose soul power level is above level 95 can be confident in completing the second awakening of their Gold-level body.

Of course, those with exceptional talent may also achieve a second awakening of their Gold-level Martial Soul when breaking through to the Title Douluo level.

When the second awakening of her martial soul was truly successful, Gui Mei was extremely grateful to Zhong Li, but didn't know how to repay this kindness...

Soul Bone?

He only has one, and even if he were willing to give it away, Zhongli might not be interested.

Rare and precious treasures?

These things are far from enough for him to repay the kindness he received; this is the kindness of being taught the Way!

Left with no other choice, he could only listen to what Ju Douluo Yueguan had to say.

When Zhongli needs help, they will do their duty without hesitation, even if it means going against the Spirit Hall... cough cough, at most they will only make a mistake for a moment.

They had also investigated what Zhongli liked, and that's why Yueguan's trip was for this purpose.

Of course, he didn't forget Paimon either.

His main purpose was to check on Paimon.

Who could blame him when Paimon was his confidant?

He took out a large number of exquisitely crafted food boxes from his storage soul tool and placed them on the table.

These boxes were all made by Yue Guan herself when she had nothing else to do.

It is carved with different flowers and exudes a floral fragrance, making it quite valuable.

Since it's a food box, what's inside is naturally food.

Under Paimon's expectant gaze, Yue Guan slowly and methodically opened the box...

"Wow!"

Paimon's eyes immediately lit up with stars, and tears welled up in his eyes.

Zhong Li: "..."

Alright, alright, you all know Paimon's weakness, right?

That was just empty talk; he didn't deliver on his promises.

This is a direct delivery, with no deception whatsoever.

The exquisite quality of the food box and the food itself is enough to show how much Yue Guan cares about the promise he made to Paimon.

It truly is a case of a scholar dying for one who understands him!

Paimon had only genuinely praised Yue Guan, and from that moment on, Yue Guan felt as if the whole world had changed, becoming vibrant and colorful.

This is something even ghosts and demons cannot comprehend.

"God of War..."

Halfway through her sentence, Yue Guan seemed to remember something and quickly changed her words, saying, "Guest Zhongli... I came in a hurry, so please accept this small gift."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yue Guan took out some more items from his storage soul tool.

The main focus is on tea, complemented by exquisite tea sets.

It's much better to cater to their preferences than to give gifts indiscriminately.

A powerful person like Zhongli basically lacks nothing, so it's essential to cater to his preferences.

The so-called "honey trap" does not mean finding a beautiful woman to seduce the other party.

Instead, he finds a woman who is similar to his ideal woman and recreates the "classic" past.

They don't know Zhongli's ideal woman, but they can cater to her preferences.

If you enjoy drinking tea, then give us tea and teaware as gifts.

We offer fine tea and the best teaware.

Zhongli was slightly taken aback upon seeing this, and glanced at Yue Guan with some surprise.

After a short while, Zhong Li calmly accepted the item.

This month, Guan has actually mastered the essence of gift-giving, which is truly rare.

Giving Paimon food was a way of catering to his tastes, and there's nothing wrong with that.

What he received was tea, and just by looking at the color of the tea, Zhongli knew that it was a top-quality tea.

Yue Guan has always loved flowers and plants, and is naturally quite knowledgeable about tea, so the tea he sent out was definitely not ordinary.

But for Zhongli, who had some knowledge of tea ceremony, this tea was only a top-quality tea.

"Elder Yueguan, you're too kind, please!"

After taking five qian of the tea leaves sent by Yue Guan, adding hot water, and starting a series of brewing steps, Zhong Li spoke to Yue Guan.

This technique left Yue Guan wide-eyed and stunned.

Tea can be drunk like this?

"Thank you, Guest Master Zhongli."

Yue Guan cupped his hands in greeting and said.

There was a rumor that Zhongli was a person who cared a lot about etiquette, so much so that there was a saying: "Without learning etiquette, one cannot stand."

From the very beginning of his interactions with Zhong Li, he treated Zhong Li with courtesy, even when challenging him.

Perhaps this is why he was able to escape unscathed after his defeat.

Zhongli didn't say much upon seeing this, only showing a slight sense of helplessness.

Yue Guan picked up the teacup, imitated Zhong Li's manner and sipped the tea, then his eyes lit up, but his mind was filled with a brainstorming session.

He had certainly tasted the tea he made himself.

However, the taste of the tea he brewed himself was completely different from the taste of the tea Zhongli brewed.

The way he brewed it was as if he were insulting the tea...

This made Yue Guan feel somewhat uncomfortable.

Zhongli and Yueguan chatted casually, while Paimon was engrossed in her meal, feeling that happiness had come too suddenly!

They had no interest in Zhongli and Yueguan at all.

"Guest Elder Zhongli, the main reason I've come here is to invite you to Martial Soul City on behalf of the Grand Elder. He wishes to meet you."

After drinking half a pot of tea, Yue Guan finally spoke.

When Xue Qinghe came before, she didn't mention this, but instead invited Zhong Li to be a judge.

The information she received came from Yue Guan's side, so naturally she wouldn't compete with Yue Guan for the "mission".

Yue Guan was originally coming to Tian Dou City, and Qian Daoliu thought it over and decided to have Yue Guan pass on a message.

Upon hearing this, Zhongli was taken aback, frowned, and fell into deep thought.

Qian Daoliu wants to see him?

Could this be a "Feast at Hongmen"?

From a purely rational perspective, Qian Daoliu had neither the reason nor the motivation to set up a trap for him.

Qian Daoliu's character would not allow him to do such a thing.

Throughout his life, he was upright and honorable, keeping his promises. Apart from indulging Qian Xunji once, Qian Daoliu had no blemishes in his life.

So what was his purpose in doing this?

Seeing Zhong Li frown, Yue Guan's expression changed instantly, and he quickly said, "Your Majesty, the Grand Elder has no other intentions. He simply wants to see you. After all, there are very few people in the entire Douluo Continent who have reached your level."

If the Spirit Hall had intended to attack Zhong Li, they would have done so long ago; there's no way they would have waited until today.

Did Zhong trick him into leaving Wuhun City?

Even if everyone in the Spirit Hall attacked together, they might not be able to stop a powerful figure like Zhong Li. If Zhong Li were to escape, the consequences would be unimaginable!

Even if they were incredibly stupid, they would never attack Zhong Li in Wuhun City!

"Hmm~"

Zhong Li nodded, as if he believed Yue Guan.

"What about time?"

"As for the timing, you should be going to Wuhun City to watch the finals, right..."
