Douluo Continent: The True Body and Blood Soul, Starting from Blacksmithing

Chapter 147 Xue'er, what brings you here?

Three days after Serpent Spear Douluo left.

Today is the day Tang San's batch of hidden weapons will be auctioned at the Heaven Dou Auction House. Lin Yu has been staying at the Lin residence for quite some time and originally wanted to go out and see the excitement of Heaven Dou City. However, just as he finished packing his things and was about to leave, a familiar figure appeared in his courtyard.

The person who arrived was none other than Qian Renxue, whom Lin Yu knew very well and with whom he had once had a "three-day trip".

However, during the "three-day trip", Qian Renxue only reverted to her female form and did not reveal her six-winged angel aura to Lin Yu.

Today, when Lin Yu saw Qian Renxue, she was enveloped in a faint golden halo. The power of the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul flowed around her, and with each step she took, golden ripples seemed to gently spread out from her feet.

The golden light illuminated her profile, her features so exquisite they resembled a work of art meticulously crafted by a master craftsman, and her brows held an air of awe-inspiring, unapproachable holiness.

Not only did she make no attempt to conceal her aura, but she also seemed to want to show off.

Logically speaking, Qian Renxue, blessed by the divine aura of the six-winged angel, should be even more beautiful than during her "three-day trip".

But when Lin Yu looked at her, he didn't feel the same impulse he had when he saw her remove her male disguise.

It's hard to describe that feeling. It's beautiful, but it's like being separated by a layer of transparent glass. You can see it, but you can't touch it.

Looking at Lin Yu, whose expression was blank and whose eyes were filled with a complex mix of emotions including scrutiny, contemplation, doubt, and confusion, Qian Renxue was confident.

She smoothed her hair.

As she raised her hand, her arm unintentionally drew an elegant arc in the halo of light, the lines of her shoulders and neck were slightly stretched by the movement, and her collarbone was faintly visible under her collar.

"What, you don't recognize me after only a few days?"

The tone, the attitude, it was just right. But Lin Yu felt something was missing, though he couldn't quite put his finger on it.

"I haven't forgotten. But—" Lin Yu paused, her gaze shifting downwards to Qian Renxue's seemingly bottomless belly, "Didn't you say you weren't going to continue being the First Prince's spy? Why are you back? Could it be that—"

Qian Renxue's ears flushed slightly under that gaze, but she remained defiant: "Hmph, I didn't come here to continue my undercover work. I came with my grandfather! I heard from Serpent Spear Douluo that you've completed the multi-metal spirit forging, and my grandfather came to have you help me forge the spirit-forged weapon you promised!"

"Your grandfather?"

Lin Yu pretended to be deep in thought, then seemed to have thought of something, and her expression became very surprised.

"Your grandfather was that level 99 Limit Douluo of the Spirit Hall, who was already known as invincible in the sky? Then your father was the previous Pope of the Spirit Hall, and your mother is the current head of the Spirit Hall—"

At this point, Lin Yu's tone became somewhat flustered and helpless, and her gaze towards Qian Renxue became slightly evasive.

His gaze shifted from her face to her shoulder, then quickly looked away, as if he dared not look directly at her.

Qian Renxue thought Lin Yu was frightened by her identity, so she took a step forward without caring and patted Lin Yu's shoulder.

As she approached, a golden halo almost enveloped the two of them, and that sacred aura made her body seem unreal.

"Lin Yu, I could forgive your impetuousness before you didn't know who I was. But now that you know, you'd better catch up with me quickly. Otherwise, you're not qualified to be my man."

As she spoke, five spirit rings—yellow, yellow, purple, purple, and black—appeared beneath Qian Renxue's feet, their colors distinct and their layers clear.

She unleashed a Soul King aura that she had never shown to Lin Yu before, and it all came crashing down on him at once.

Five soul rings slowly rotated around her, and with each rotation, the pressure increased, as if an invisible hand was pressing on Lin Yu's shoulder.

Faced with the soul power pressure from Qian Renxue, Lin Yu only felt a moment of dizziness, and that was it.

The golden armor patterns on the surface of his bones flashed slightly within his body, and the oppressive aura that touched his body was like water meeting stone, automatically sliding to the sides.

However, upon noticing Qian Renxue's surprised expression, Lin Yu quickly feigned being overwhelmed by the immense pressure. He bent over, his breathing quickened, and a thin layer of sweat even appeared on his forehead.

Lin Yu's cautious and timid demeanor made Qian Renxue feel a little awkward.

Although Lin Yu is more respectful to her now, she prefers the Lin Yu who is more relaxed and casual, and who communicates with her on an equal footing.

She reached out and patted Lin Yu's shoulder with a satisfied expression, then quickly lowered her voice and said, "Okay, I was just kidding. We'll act like usual in private. It's just that my grandfather is nearby right now, and he might come over anytime, so I have to put on an act."

Qian Daoliu actually came too?

Lin Yu felt like the sky was about to fall. Judging from Qian Renxue's attitude, she seemed unaware that she was already involved with Bibi Dong—if she knew, she probably wouldn't be speaking to her in this tone.

In that case, you can put on a show, lay the groundwork beforehand, and wait for the truth to come out—etc.

Now that Qian Daoliu has come along, why should I bother with any more preparation?

Who is Qian Daoliu? A level 99 Limit Douluo, invincible in the sky. He could definitely see the changes in Qian Renxue's body.

Waistline, gait, and breath – these things cannot be hidden from an old man who has lived most of his life.

Then why should I act in any dramas?

The sense of helplessness caused by the disruption of her plans made Lin Yu feel dazed for a moment.

He didn't know when it started, but unexpected things began to frequently disrupt his life.

At first, he trained relentlessly every day, hoping to awaken a better martial soul, but then a group of guys who wanted to steal his soul bone suddenly appeared and kicked him to death like a stray cat on the street.

He miraculously survived and awakened his martial soul, joined the Spirit Hall, and only wanted to develop his strength honestly, but was instead thrown into Heaven Dou City —

Even forging iron is fraught with difficulties, one pit after another.

These days, even wanting to act in a play can lead to frequent unexpected incidents.

Lin Yu was truly out of ideas.

"You've come here to have weapons forged, haven't you?"

As he spoke, Lin Yu took out an orange-red and gold-colored pen, similar to the "spinning pen" from his previous life, from his storage soul tool.

A small thing.

It's thick at both ends and thin in the middle, allowing it to be rotated freely at your fingertips.

"A while ago, I researched the fusion technique of the Evil-Eyed White Tiger and the Netherworld Cat's martial souls, and in the process, I developed a Twin Spirit Forging Method. I can complete the spirit forging by myself using this method, and the items forged by Twin Spirit Forging have at least two properties. That spinning pen in your hand, I made it from the scraps of the two pieces of metal that your grandfather left behind."

"This is a test subject. You can directly remove the soul imprint inside, and then you can control it. You can check the effect after the twin spirits are forged; I'll go to the forge to start the furnace."

Today, Lin Yu was preparing to go out, so he didn't light the furnace or anything. Since he was going to forge something for Qian Renxue, he definitely had to light a fire first and preheat the furnace.

Seeing Lin Yu's aura suddenly drop and his suddenly impatient attitude towards her, Qian Renxue was a little confused.

Judging from Lin Yu's appearance, it seems that Ping has hit rock bottom and turned around after being bullied for a long time. But with Lin Yu's current status, who would dare to bully him?

But if no one is bullying him, it's hard to explain his sudden sense of grievance and helplessness.

"Hey, Lin Yu, did someone bully you while I was away? Was it the Serpent Spear or the Porcupinefish? Or perhaps Dugu Bo? Avalanche? Ning Fengzhi? Tang Hao?"

Seeing that Lin Yu did not turn around but walked straight towards the forging room, Qian Renxue quickly followed after her.

"You're not upset that I left so suddenly, are you? I really had my reasons. You might not know, but I gave up the inheritance of my family's divine status and chose to absorb a divine heart to create my own divine position. You seem to have a divine heart as well, and you probably don't know how to create your own divine position yet, right? Let me tell you—"

Even as Qian Renxue opened her mouth to reveal the method for creating her own divine position, Lin Yu did not stop.

He entered the forging room and was about to close the door when it shook and stopped.

Lin Yu turned her head, and her voice, steady yet tinged with a hint of apology, rang out.

"Thank you for your concern. I have passed the Nine Trials of the God of Crafts, so becoming a god is not difficult for me. I am not worried about my path to godhood. As for who bullied me, I am not sure. I think I may have some clues, but I need time to verify them."

Anyway, it's not you, not your grandfather, and certainly not one of those people you just mentioned. Don't overthink it.

Lin Yu said this because he remembered that the person in charge of taking care of Douluo Star during this period should be the Asura God from the God Realm.

But whether it was awakening that ancient being in the cave or the heavenly lightning attracted by the successful spirit forging, it seemed that Ping had nothing to do with the Asura God. Of course, it was also possible that it was just a matter of time before the Destruction God King and the Life God King took over the reins. Lin Yu just hoped that he was overthinking it.

Of course, even if that were true, Lin Yu wouldn't care. That ancient being had once said that he had the potential to become a God-King.

The most urgent task is to focus wholeheartedly on cultivation as soon as possible.
