Douluo Continent: Chrysanthemum and Demon Twins, Forced Marriage to Meng Hongchen

"Truly worthy of being my grandson-in-law, whom I personally chose. He is indeed a man of unparalleled talent, with the potential to become a Limit Douluo."

Seeing the increasingly intense strange phenomena on Xia Yu's body, Jing Hongchen's heart was filled with pride.

This grandson-in-law really made the right choice. With him around, he can definitely protect Meng and let her continue to live a carefree life.

At the same time, as long as he can join Mingdetang, Mingdetang will surely be able to recover its former glory more quickly with his help.

Perhaps it won't even take several years; it's very likely that Mingdetang can be brought back to life within one or two years.

With this in mind, Jing Hongchen became even more eager to persuade Xia Yu to join Mingdetang.

I wish I could tie Xia Yu to Mingdetang's ship right now.

Unfortunately, with the existence of Kong Deming, the father of soul tools, his idea was destined to face numerous difficulties.

Aside from Xia Yu's personal agreement, no other method would work.

Forcing Xia Yu is not even worth mentioning; just considering Xia Yu's talent and combat strength, it's very likely that even a veteran level nine soul master like Jing Hongchen would be no match for him.

This is not an exaggeration, but a reasonable inference based on facts.

For example, the soul power Xia Yu is displaying right now is enough to make Jing Hongchen take notice.

If he wasn't mistaken, Xia Yu was already at the peak of level 92 and was about to break through to level 93.

Yes, after undergoing a secret spiritual enhancement, Xia Yu's soul power level was still 92, but it was only one step away from 93.

In other words, he could break through to level 93 at any time.

"Xia Yu is really outrageous. He just broke through to the Title Douluo level not long ago, and he's already catching up with us veteran Soul Masters."

The more Jing Hongchen learned about Xia Yu, the more convinced he became; he had no choice but to admire him.

Fortunately, Xia Yu is on their Sun Moon Empire's side, otherwise they would have had a real headache.

Just like that little rascal Huo Yuhao, once he grows up, he will inevitably become a scourge to the Sun Moon Empire.

Jing Hongchen now deeply regrets his past actions. Why did he even bother with the exchange student program? It was a thankless and exhausting endeavor.

Time passed slowly, and the daytime was over.

After this period of hard work, Xia Yu has gradually improved his ability to guide the primal resonance between martial souls.

He can now clearly feel the attraction between the two martial souls.

It seemed that as long as he guided it according to that attraction, he could at any time blend the power of the two martial souls together without any repulsion.

This allows them to naturally use their own martial soul fusion skills.

But things couldn't be that simple; it was just Xia Yu's illusion.

If he really does act according to his current feelings, he will only face failure.

It could even lead to the complete failure of all previous efforts, causing everything to be overturned.

Fortunately, Xia Yu was rational enough to suppress his impulse and did not follow his feelings. Instead, he slowly deepened the original resonance between the martial souls step by step.

He believed from the beginning that as long as he continued to guide the process, quantitative changes would eventually lead to qualitative changes.

And sure enough, Xia Yu's gamble paid off.

As the fundamental resonance between the two martial souls deepened, signs of fusion began to appear in their powers.

Although brief, it truly existed.

All these changes undoubtedly indicate that Xia Yu has chosen the right path.

As for when the Martial Soul Fusion Skill will succeed, that depends on Xia Yu's guidance speed.

It shouldn't take many days.

"Grandpa, where's Yu-ge? What's he doing? He stood me up! That's outrageous!"

While Xia Yu was still working hard on his own martial soul fusion skill, Meng Hongchen, who hadn't seen him for a long time and thought he had stood her up, angrily came to Mingde Hall to look for him.

At first, Xia Yu did indeed promise to return to the mansion with Meng Hongchen, but things didn't go as planned.

He originally only wanted to visit the secret research of Mingde Hall and learn some experience and techniques from it.

But who would have thought that Mingde Hall would have such a wonderful thing as a Martial Soul Fusion Promoter?

Now that he had seen it, and it was something Xia Yu desperately needed, he naturally had to give it a try.

You don't know until you try, and once you try, Xia Yu forgets his promise to Meng Hongchen.

He had no time to think about his beloved wife Meng Hongchen; all he could think about was how to develop his own martial soul fusion technique.

Although it is true that I feel bad for Meng Hongchen, there are reasons for it. I can apologize to her properly and make compensation later.

"Alright, alright, don't be angry. Xia Yu didn't mean to stand you up. You can see he really can't get away right now..."

Jing Hongchen is indeed a very good elder. Although he dotes on Meng Hongchen, he is not blind to right and wrong and unconditionally stands by her side.

Instead, he spoke based on facts, explaining to Xia Yu why he had to let Meng Hongchen go.

"Grandpa, you said that Brother Yu is trying to cultivate that self-spirit fusion technique. Is there any chance of him succeeding? Is there any danger?"

After hearing Jing Hongchen's explanation, Meng Hongchen was also stunned.

She knew all too well about spirit fusion skills, after all, she and Xiao Hongchen possessed the spirit fusion skill "Red Dust Yearning".

But that self-fusion martial soul technique was beyond her imagination.

What does it mean for one person to be able to use a Martial Soul Fusion Technique? That's simply a fantasy.

But there is a living example right before her eyes: her husband, Xia Yu, is now trying to accomplish this feat.

How could Meng Hongchen not be shocked and incredulous by this?

"Whether he can become my grandfather or not, I don't know. It all depends on Xia Yu's fate."

Jing Hongchen couldn't answer Meng Hongchen's question either, since he had no experience in this area.

No, it's not that I have no experience; it's that this is the first time I've ever seen anything like it.

Therefore, he didn't know what to say.

However, according to his observation, Xia Yu is currently in good condition and should be out of danger.

"Phew, no danger, that's good!"

Knowing that Xia Yu was not in any danger, Meng Hongchen felt a little relieved.

But it was only a few; until the results were in, she couldn't completely relax.

In fact, in order to keep a close eye on Xia Yu's condition, Meng Hongchen even wanted to stay by Xia Yu's side and protect him.

However, Jing Hongchen rejected her plan, arguing that with him around, there was no need for Meng Hongchen to do this.

Besides, Meng Hongchen can't be of much help here. She should focus on her own affairs and prepare for the Mingdu Tournament.

Meng Hongchen naturally disagreed with this.

But she couldn't fight against her grandfather's authority, and in the end she compromised and followed his arrangements.

Thus, apart from checking on Xia Yu's situation at a few fixed times, Meng Hongchen spent the rest of his time busy with team matters and preparing for the Mingdu Tournament.

This continued for eight days in a row, until finally, on the morning of the ninth day, Xia Yu's condition changed.
