Douluo Continent: The Twin Holy Dragons of Light and Darkness, the Dragon Emperor Breaks Through the

Hu Liena was puzzled; at such a young age, she didn't understand the intricacies of the situation.

"Grandma said you're going to this aunt's house, and you won't have to stay here anymore."

"You have your own toys, and someone takes care of you."

The old woman continued to offer words of comfort.

"But there are toys here, and people take care of us."

The old woman sighed and shook her head helplessly. It was too much to ask her to reason with a two- or three-year-old child.

"Nana, do you want to know where your parents are?"

"And you two little ones too."

The old woman looked at the three of them.

"Parents? What are parents?"

Having lost their parents in infancy, the three children naturally wouldn't know the meaning of the word "parents." For these children who have lived in an orphanage since childhood, the word "parents" is the most unfamiliar word.

"Oh, poor child, how could a child have such a miserable life."

"Those despicable fallen soul masters are truly despicable, like stinking rats in the gutter!"

Tuoba Yue'er cursed angrily. She was a rather sentimental person, and after seeing how pitiful the three of them were, she was moved with compassion.

After all, if it weren't for that, Qian Renxue and Jin Chen wouldn't have called her "Auntie" so often back then.

"Let me do it."

Tuoba Yue'er gave the old woman a reassuring look.

"Your name is Nana, right? From now on, I'm your mother, and you two little ones, do you know what to call me?"

The old woman's face lit up with joy. Originally, she had only thought that her three children would be noticed by an important person and trained to become her servants, but now it seemed that the situation far exceeded her expectations.

This seems to indicate a move to adopt these three children as godsons.

Ling Feng, watching from the sidelines, had no objection.

With the adoption now a reality, Hu Liena and the other two will be more obedient to her when they grow up.

In this era, adoption and master-apprentice relationships are generally no different.

"mother?"

Hu Liena called out tentatively.

"Oh, my dear daughter, from now on you will be my daughter, Tuoba Yue'er's daughter."

"And you two little adults, don't be so serious, you'll be my children too in the future."

Xie Yue and Yan nodded blankly, clearly unaware of the true meaning.

But none of that matters. Once you come to Ling Feng's family, you will become the most loyal Soul Master in the Qian Gu family.

After the adoption agreement was reached, the old woman nodded and casually took out a booklet.

"Your Excellency, please make a record in this book. This book contains information about the adoption of children from the orphanage."

"Most of them are adopted and raised by their parents' colleagues. The Spirit Hall will visit them regularly, which is a last line of protection for the children."

These words were spoken by the dean to defend the three children, even at the risk of offending such a powerful family.

After all, you can know a person's face but not their heart. If the Spirit Hall doesn't keep a close eye on this child after he's been adopted, who knows what he'll encounter in the future?

"I know that, and I won't make things difficult for the dean."

Tuoba Yue'er registered according to the regulations, and after registering, she took the three little ones and the three big ones back to the courtyard of the Qian Gu family.

Once inside, Hu Liena looked around.

"Wow...this place is so beautiful! There are flowers, fish, and even deer over there!"

The courtyard of the Qian Gu family is not small, but rather extremely large. Therefore, each area has its own function: a medicinal garden with ornamental and medicinal value, a lake for raising spirit fish that have been raised for decades or even centuries, and deer-like spirit beasts that provide meat for Ling Feng's family.

It has all kinds of facilities, which is not considered luxurious for the high-ranking families of the Spirit Hall; in fact, it can be described as a life of poverty.

As far as Ling Feng knew, Jin Chen had a room in his house made of pure gold, and the entire room, including all kinds of furniture, was made by melting and casting gold soul coins.

The purpose is to allow Jin Chen to absorb as much of the metal element as possible into his body before he awakens.

"It's getting late, I'm going to prepare lunch. You six can play first, but Xiaofeng, remember not to bully your younger siblings."

"I know mother."

Ling Feng curled his lips. He was already over thirty years old in both his past and present lives, so naturally he wouldn't find pleasure in bullying children.

“Now that you three little ones are here at my house, you have to do as I say.”

"I will teach you how to cultivate your martial spirit, but you will have to pay a price for it."

"I'm the eldest son in the family. You three should call me 'eldest brother' or 'big brother,' do you hear me?"

Upon hearing this, Hu Liena and the other two nodded.

"I understand, big brother."

Hu Liena mumbled incoherently.

"Big brother."

Compared to Hu Liena, Xie Yue and Yan were much calmer. As orphans who had no one to love them since childhood, they were actually much more mature.

In addition, the people on Douluo Continent are relatively precocious, so they are aware of their situation.

Having a stronger backer comes with the need to reciprocate.

"Then as the eldest brother, I won't be stingy with you."

"If anyone dares to bully you in the future, just say my name is Ling Feng."

The three little ones nodded.

Afterwards, the group of six children played at Ling Feng's house.

They picked flowers in the herb garden, jumped into the lake to catch fish, and even rode deer in the habitat of spirit beasts.

This terrified the servants of the Qian Gu family, their hearts pounding. If these young masters and princesses were to bump into or even slightly, they would all lose their jobs.

Fortunately, Ling Feng was there; his dragon-type martial soul had a natural suppressive effect on these low-level soul beasts.

So whether Hu Liena or Qian Renxue wants a pretty flower or to ride a pretty deer, Ling Feng can make it happen.

However, during this process, he also discovered that although Qian Renxue felt sorry for Hu Liena's background, she only asked Jin Chen to take care of her more.

Whenever Hu Liena tries to get too close to Ling Feng, he is always pulled back by Qian Renxue.

Seeing that the children were having a good time, Ling Feng didn't disturb them.

He found a large rock and lay down on it, idly fiddling with the dragon-patterned staff in his hand.

Yes, this is a martial spirit cultivation method passed down through the Qian Gu family, and it is also the biggest symbol of the Qian Gu family possessing the Panlong Staff martial spirit.

That is, whenever he has free time, he will release his martial spirit, which will transform into a miniature dragon-shaped staff that is no longer than an ordinary embroidery needle.

Finally, the index finger mobilized its soul power to hold the Panlong Staff, making it float in the hand for playing with.

This is certainly not showing off, but a genuine way to improve one's understanding of martial spirits and various skills.

Although Ling Feng's Panlong Staff martial soul is similar to that born from a half-life divine artifact, he is still able to cultivate this method.

Yesterday, when he awakened his martial spirit and the two elders, Qianjun Jiangmo and Shangren, passed on the secret technique to him, he kept pondering it.

In just one day, he has already mastered the skill.

"Young master, young lady, the madam says you should have your meal first."

Soon, a girl dressed as a maid came and called the children to eat.

"Okay, I see."

Chapter 12 Consuming Whale Glue

After having a hearty lunch, Qian Gu Xiaoye did not leave immediately.

Instead, he led Ling Feng and the other two into a secret room.

In just half a day, he obtained a piece of ten-thousand-year-old whale glue and several thousand pieces of thousand-year-old whale glue through his special channels.

After receiving it, he planned to take his son to try it out.

After he took out several pieces of whale glue, Ling Feng and the other two each took a small piece and examined it.

From the outside, these whale glues are yellowish-brown in color and have a faint fishy smell.

However, Ling Feng poked it hard and found that the whale glue was indeed quite hard.

If one were to use ordinary weapons to slash, it would probably take a lot of effort.

At the same time, the two Douluo, Qianjun Jiangmo, also arrived here.

After all, as the family's unparalleled genius, Ling Feng now needs the two of them to supervise his experiments with whale glue.

"Young man, tell me, how should we use this whale glue to enhance your physical strength?"

Qian Gu Xiaoye did not know the specific method, so he had to ask his son for help.

Qian Renxue and Jin Chen also turned their gazes to him.

After all, such natural treasures that can enhance physical strength after birth are extremely rare, if not nonexistent.

In this era, whale glue was produced in considerable quantities, and it was clearly not a particularly precious commodity.

Moreover, the price won't be too high, since its main function is to enhance male potency.

"Grandpa Qianjun, Grandpa Jiangmo, you can use fire to melt this whale glue."

"When the temperature of the flame reaches a critical point, it will undergo a transformation and emit a strange fragrance. If you take it at that time, it will have a very good effect."

"Putting aside everything else, at the very least a small piece of ten-thousand-year whale glue can increase the age of a Soul Master's first Soul Ring from over 400 years to 800-900 years."

"However, this is only the effect of the first time. Once the body develops antibodies against whale gel, it will require even more precious whale gel."

Upon hearing this, Demon-Slaying Douluo picked up a piece of whale glue that was less than ten thousand years old.
