Douluo Continent: My name is Yang Jian, and I achieved sainthood through my physical body

After a moment of contemplation, Yue Guan replied earnestly, "The key to Yang Jian's ability to absorb a ten-thousand-year soul ring lies in his physical strength."

“Three months ago, when he came to the Spirit Hall, his physical strength was still very ordinary.”

"But now, his physical strength is comparable to that of a Soul King."

"This growth rate is probably inseparable from the Three-Pointed Double-Edged Sword Martial Soul."

“Your Holiness, such an achievement is impossible for others to replicate. But if Yang Jian can pass on this martial spirit, the Spirit Hall will surely stand tall on the continent for thousands of generations.”

Bibi Dong fell into deep thought.

That makes sense.

Her fingers tapped lightly on the armrest.

His mind raced, calculating rapidly.

Yang Jian's talent is beyond doubt.

Today, it has created the miracle of the first ring in ten thousand years.

Such a genius.

You probably can't find another one like it on the entire continent.

And she... has already obtained the inheritance of the Rakshasa God, and is destined to ascend to the realm of gods in the future.

By then, the Spirit Hall will need a sufficiently powerful successor.

She was very unhappy with the Qian family. She had spent so many years trying to take back power from the Elders' Hall and the Hall of Worship to the Papal Palace. She was determined not to let the Qian family regain control of the Spirit Hall.

Therefore, the heir must be trustworthy.

There aren't many people like that.

Hu Liena barely qualifies.

She has always raised Hu Liena as her daughter.

Loyalty, talent, and character.

The other party is just as good in every way.

But loyalty alone is not enough; one also needs sufficient strength to intimidate everyone.

Yang Jian is the best choice.

If these two children could be paired up...

In this way, Yang Jian's Three-Pointed Double-Edged Sword Martial Soul can be passed down from generation to generation in the Spirit Hall.

Furthermore, Nana is someone he trusts.

This will also ensure that the power of the Spirit Hall will not fall into other hands in the future.

A win-win situation!

Although Nana is six years older than Yang Jian, age is never a problem for Soul Masters.

Decades later, this difference will be nothing.

After thinking about this, Bibi Dong made a decision.

"Moon Pass".

"Your subordinate is here."

“From today onwards, you must keep a close eye on Yang Jian at all times and ensure he is not harmed in any way.” Bibi Dong’s voice was calm, yet carried an undeniable authority. “Also, when you are teaching Yang Jian in the future, remember to bring Hu Liena along as well.”

Yue Guan was slightly taken aback.

He then understood what Bibi Dong meant.

I think this decision couldn't be more appropriate.

Yang Jian and Hu Liena, one with extraordinary talent and the other loyal and reliable, are truly a match made in heaven.

"Understood, Your subordinate." Yue Guan bowed and turned to leave.

As he walked out of the main hall, a smile appeared on his lips.

It looks like the days ahead are going to be very interesting.

Chapter 20 Hu Liena's Curiosity

When Yang Jian returned to his courtyard, it was already close to dusk.

Two maids were looking out from the courtyard gate. When they saw him return, they quickly came forward to greet him: "Young Master Yang Jian, you're back."

"Hmm." Yang Jian pushed open the door and walked into the courtyard: "I'm hungry."

The two maids, being well-mannered, tactfully refrained from asking further questions and turned to prepare dinner.

Yang Jian had just sat down on the stone bench in the courtyard and hadn't even had a chance to catch his breath when he saw a figure follow him into the courtyard.

Hu Liena stood at the door, her chestnut hair swaying gently in the evening breeze, her delicate face filled with curiosity and inquiry.

She hesitated for a moment, then stepped inside.

"Junior Brother."

"Senior sister, is there anything else?" Yang Jian looked up at her.

Hu Liena walked over and sat down opposite him, resting her chin on her hands, her foxy eyes staring straight at him.

"How exactly did you do that?"

She finally couldn't help but speak, her tone full of doubt, "The first spirit ring is ten thousand years, that's completely unreasonable, please tell me?"

Looking at her eager expression, Yang Jian sighed inwardly.

He had anticipated this question from the other party.

"It's probably because of my martial soul." He shrugged, feigning ignorance, and said, "After awakening my martial soul, my body has been getting stronger day by day, but I don't know exactly why."

Hu Liena stared into his eyes for a long time, trying to discern whether his words were true or false.

Yang Jian's eyes were clear and unwavering, revealing no flaws.

"Really?" Hu Liena asked, still somewhat skeptical.

“Really.” Yang Jian nodded.

Hu Liena sighed, knowing she wouldn't get any more information, and felt quite frustrated.

However, Yang Jian's explanation seems reasonable, and he probably didn't lie.

She gave up asking further questions and changed the subject.

"Hey, can I take a look at both of your martial souls?"

Her eyes lit up. "You were moving too fast earlier, I didn't see it clearly. I think it's called a three-pointed double-edged sword, right?"

"What's another martial soul called again?"

"Howling Celestial Dog".

"Yes, yes, I want to see it, Celestial Dog!"

Yang Jian thought for a moment.

I don't think this is a major issue that needs to be hidden.

Moreover, Hu Liena is Bibi Dong's personal disciple, and they are considered to be from the same school. They will inevitably have contact in the future, it's only a matter of time.

"alright."

He stood up and flipped his right hand.

The three-pointed, double-edged sword appeared; originally small and exquisite, it instantly transformed into a three-meter-long blade.

Hu Liena's eyes lit up.

"This looks really good." She circled around Yang Jian, looking the uniquely shaped weapon up and down, and gave her evaluation: "It looks much better than those ordinary weapon spirits."

She became more and more interested as she looked at it, and reached out her hand to Yang Jian: "Quick, let me try it out."

Yang Jian reminded him, "You might not be able to lift it."

Hu Liena raised an eyebrow, her face showing a dismissive expression.

"Junior brother, are you underestimating me?"

She put her hands on her hips, her tone carrying a hint of arrogance, "I am a level 32 Soul Master. I have been trained in the Spirit Hall since I was a child, so I am quite strong."

"If a six-year-old like you can lift it, how could I not?"

Yang Jian didn't say anything, but simply handed over the three-pointed double-edged sword.

Hu Liena reached out and took it.

then……

The moment the three-pointed double-edged sword came into her hands, Hu Liena's expression changed.

This was not the weight she had imagined at all; it felt as if a small mountain had pressed down on her!

She didn't even have time to react before she was pulled down to the ground.

A muffled thud.

"Ouch!"

Hu Liena fell heavily to the ground.

The hilt of the three-pointed double-edged sword was pressing down on her palm.

The pain brought tears to her eyes.

Yang Jian quickly put his mind to it and retrieved the three-pointed double-edged sword.

"Hey!"

Hu Liena sat on the ground, covering her palm, which was red from being pressed by the three-pointed double-edged sword. Her eyes were red, but she stubbornly refused to let the tears fall.

She sniffed, looked up at Yang Jian, her eyes filled with disbelief.
