Melee archer with maxed-out Douluo luck

Chapter 106 Bellflower, A Master and Disciple with Absolutely No Understanding

"Hmm, not bad. In terms of strength and defense alone, compared to other Soul Masters of the same type with ordinary Martial Souls, you have a certain advantage, even when fighting ten levels higher. However, you could have dodged that third attack if you had been a little faster. You still need to practice more."

Guangling nodded in satisfaction, but also pointed out Xiuer's mistake in the battle.

"Yes, Master." Xiu'er's little face turned serious again.

"Alright, someone come and treat them both."

Guangling called out again to the sidelines, and two Soul Masters came out.

One was a food expert, and the other a healer. After checking Xiu'er's injuries, the two also gave her some instructions on what to pay attention to during her medicinal bath that evening.

"Now you know why we're not worried about Sister Xiu'er's willpower."

Han Li looked at Dugu Yan, who still seemed somewhat dazed.

"Yes, Sister Xiuer, no, Xiuer has always trained like this."

Dugu Yan looked at Xiuer, who was receiving treatment in the arena and had regained her sweet smile and her gentle and weak appearance, and her expression was somewhat complicated.

"Well, there's nothing we can do. That's just how Sister Xiu'er's martial soul is. We can't throw the baby out with the bathwater. It'll get better in the future. Maybe when she gets stronger, soul masters of the same or higher level won't be able to break through her defenses. After her martial soul evolved, the injuries she sustained have actually lessened a lot."

Han Li's voice softened unconsciously as he reached out and waved to Xiu'er, who was looking over from the center of the arena.

"I want to train like this from now on, and my grandfather will pay for it."

Dugu Yan first said through gritted teeth, then added shyly, blushing slightly.

Han Li was taken aback at first, then said with a wry smile:

"Your main focus right now is ranged attacks, so don't worry about learning from Sister Xiuer. Your training method should be similar to mine. You don't need to worry about that. Your master and sparring team will test your abilities and provide corresponding training methods later."

"Well, we also need to add aerial combat, which I need to learn as well. We can do it together then. As for the money, forget about it. You and Grandpa are my followers, so I can afford it. Don't be shy; after all, I need people."

As he finished speaking, he winked at Dugu Yan, the meaning of which was self-evident.

"How can that be? There are three people in our family. We can't let you bear all the burden. Anyway, I'm Grandpa's only granddaughter. If he doesn't spend money on me, who will he spend money on? I'll write to him later."

Dugu Yan is also stubborn, but when it comes to tricking her grandfather, she doesn't hold back at all.

Seeing that he couldn't persuade him, Han Li gave up the idea. He decided to just have them take a card with them when he delivered the carriage to the old man.

Dugu Bo was prepared to donate his family fortune at the time, and Han Li had naturally learned about it. Most of the old man's assets were fixed assets, and he didn't have much cash on hand.

Don't squander that little bit of wealth in Tiandou City. It's real estate in one of the three most prosperous cities on the continent. It's not worth it to sell it rashly.

After the treatment was completed, the group of five headed towards the living room.

The two little girls voluntarily fell behind, talking about something.

Han Li then looked at Qingluan. He hadn't seen his senior uncle for a long time. He had only exchanged a brief greeting in the offering hall before, and he had just been an observer throughout the process without asking any questions.

"Uncle-Master, you didn't take the earthworm and golden melon, did you?"

"No, your Master Lion has tried it, and the effect is not bad, but as your master said, its effect on us is limited. Well, it should be quite effective for your Master Crocodile, since it is in line with his path. I hope he can break through smoothly."

"What? Little Li, have you changed your mind? Or is the Earth Dragon Golden Gourd useful to you? Then you can take this one; it won't be of much use to me."

As Qingluan spoke, the Earth Dragon Golden Melon appeared in her hand and was handed to Han Li.

"Senior Uncle, you misunderstand. How could I possibly take back something I've given away? You keep it; I don't need it. Here, this is for you. I specially saved it for you. Although it's not exactly a divine herb, it's still a near-divine herb, especially since it's quite compatible with your attributes."

Han Li, both amused and exasperated, pushed the earth dragon golden melon back and took out a flower with a bell-shaped corolla from his wristband, white at the bottom and pale purple at the edges, and handed it over.

"Uncle-Master, it's called Bellflower. It's wind-attribute, and it also has some sonic and mental attacks, like this."

As Han Li spoke, he gently touched the petal with his soul power, and a bell rang out, causing faint ripples to appear in the air in front of him.

"This is perfect for you. You can study it for a while first, no need to rush to eat it. I've done some processing to ensure that its spiritual essence and medicinal properties remain intact for a month and a half. Once you've finished studying it, just wash it clean and swallow it whole. Oh, and whatever you do, do not chew it."

Han Li pointed to the roots that were wrapped in soil from the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, and explained the specific method of ingestion before stopping.

"Alright, then I won't stand on ceremony with you."

Qingluan didn't say anything, just took it and put it into his storage space. He also had a device for storing living things, but it wasn't very big, which was why Guangling didn't ask him for it directly at the time.

Han Li didn't say anything else. Although he called him "Uncle-Master," their relationship was not much different from that of a master and disciple.

When he gets back, he'll use the recipes from Chrysanthemum Douluo's plant guide to get some good stuff, and then send some to his master. Even if he can't break through in one go, he can still get Qingluan past the level 97 threshold by relying on the rare herbs.

Guangling, who was standing to the side, also smiled. He was so happy that the two people closest to him had such a harmonious relationship.

"When you go into seclusion later, remember to let me know. I'll give you a surprise when you come out."

Guangling suddenly thought of something and said to Qingluan.

"A surprise? What surprise?" Qingluan asked curiously.

"Hey, don't ask anymore. If I told you in advance, would it still be a surprise? I just thought you were too quiet, so I wanted to give you something to do. I'll talk to Xiao Li about it later. Don't worry, I guarantee you won't refuse this time."

Guangling wore a mysterious expression and winked at Han Li.

Han Li looked at his master with a blank expression. What was he talking about? Why was he asking me for advice? I don't know anything about it.

However, seeing Guangling constantly giving him meaningful glances, he nodded.

Never mind, I'll ask Master after my senior uncle leaves.

I hope Master won't cause any big trouble. No, I have to keep an eye on him. If things don't go well, I'll go and complain to my eldest uncle!

Qingluan glanced at the master and disciple who showed absolutely no chemistry, smiled, but didn't ask any more questions.
