In Douluo Continent, he tricked Xiao Wu into giving him a soul ring.

"Let nature take its course." Lan Ji carried Bibi Dong into the bedroom and lay down, changing the subject. "How are the preparations going with the Heaven Dou Empire?"

“It’s all arranged. The Star Luo Empire is now divided, and Emperor Dai Mubai has ‘deserted himself in the face of battle.’ Taking over the Star Luo Empire will be a piece of cake. Once the Star Luo Empire is destroyed, Xue’er can start arranging for the Heaven Dou Empire to surrender.” Bibi Dong nestled in Lan Ji’s arms, her slender white fingers drawing circles on his chest as she spoke. “Once the Martial Soul Empire unifies the continent, we can then begin to punish those nobles who eat human flesh without spitting out the bones.”

“Yes, that makes sense. Otherwise, unification would be meaningless. Those lousy nobles are just a matter of changing masters.” Lan Ji said, “But this is only a temporary solution. In a few years, they will rise again, and then the Martial Soul Empire will eventually become the second Star Luo Empire, the second Heaven Dou Empire.”

Bibi Dong, who had also received an education on Earth, paused for a moment after hearing Lan Ji's words before adding, "Regarding the system, I have already drafted a plan: abolish the feudal system and its division into fiefdoms, and establish a federation. In every city, establish nine-year compulsory education schools. Start with children, instilling patriotism in them. And..."

As she spoke, Bibi Dong put forward a series of her reform proposals.

Lan Ji listened carefully. In terms of systems, there were indeed no problems. Whether it was finance, education, administration, or military reform, it covered almost every aspect, and even the sustainable development of soul beasts was taken into consideration.

However, one point is often overlooked: bloodline.

Bloodline is ultimately an eternal topic in this world.

Not everyone can rise to prominence through the mutation of their martial soul like Ma Hongjun or Oscar.

Under the influence of bloodline, a family with a powerful martial spirit can rise again after thousands of years, as long as only one person remains, as long as the martial spirit is passed down.

The Fairy Tree Romance

This is also why Lan Ji wanted to make all the owners of the two top-tier martial souls, the Clear Sky Hammer and the White Tiger, lose their reproductive abilities.

The weak will never have a chance to turn the tables.

In this way, thousands of years later, the Douluo Federation will eventually become a second Heaven Dou Empire, a second Star Luo Empire, corrupt and filthy... reduced to slaves of bloodlines, and ultimately headed for destruction.

This is definitely not what Lan Ji wanted to see.

Next, Lan Ji discussed the issue of reform with Bibi Dong.

The two chatted enthusiastically and even had a few fights. Before they knew it, they had been talking until dawn.

After leaving Bibi Dong's residence, Lan Ji met Hu Liena, who was waiting outside the bamboo forest.

"Let's talk as we walk," Lan Ji sighed softly, brushing past Hu Liena.

Hu Liena was secretly pleased and then followed.

The two walked side by side, and Lan Ji casually asked, "Where's Zhu Qing? Is she still in the Star Luo Empire?"

"Yes, Dai Mubai has been arrested now. She is contacting several surrounding families with the Zhu family head, working with Grandpa Gui and the others to avoid unnecessary casualties." Hu Liena looked at Lan Ji with a complicated expression, the man who slept with her teacher.

Seeing that Hu Liena hesitated to speak, Lan Ji said calmly, "Ask whatever you want to ask."

"You and my teacher...you two..." She knew that Lan Ji had more than two girlfriends, Qian Renxue and Zhu Zhuqing, and also maintained an ambiguous relationship with Ye Lengleng.

But to everyone's surprise, even her own teacher, who had already become a god, would be taken into Lan Ji's harem.

Lan Ji nodded. "Just as you predicted, Dong'er is now my wife. We've already been married somewhere."

"Do Sister Xue'er and Zhu Qing know about this?" Hu Liena asked hesitantly.

"They all know. I didn't hide this from them." Lan Ji smiled slightly, turning to look at Hu Liena. "Don't you find it unbelievable?"

Hu Liena nodded emphatically.

"Little fox, let me tell you a story. Once upon a time, there was a little boy and a little girl." As she spoke, Lan Ji recounted their story on Earth in the form of a fairy tale.

After hearing this, Hu Liena was captivated by the beautiful love between the two, her pretty face blushing as she drifted into a blissful fantasy. She imagined herself as the girl and Lan Ji as the boy. They were childhood sweethearts, innocent and carefree.

It wasn't until Lan Ji reminded him that he came to his senses and asked urgently, "Are these two people you and my teacher?"

"Yes." Lan Ji nodded.

"But your ages..." Hu Liena asked, voicing her doubts.

Even if the two did know each other when they were children, their ages don't match.

Lan Ji gave an irrelevant answer, saying something profound: "Dong'er has already become a god, and I am not far from taking that step. Tens of thousands of years from now, what does being a few decades old matter?"

................

The war in the Star Luo Empire was raging. With the help of the Zhu family from within and without, the Martial Soul Empire easily captured the Star Luo capital.

Adhering to the policy of appeasing the people, the army did not harm the people in the city in the slightest.

But for those nobles who usually act arrogantly and domineeringly, they were not so polite.

Apart from the Zhu family and the families that had already surrendered to the Spirit Empire, almost everyone else was taken prisoner. They were all taken to Spirit City, where they would face the legal punishment of the Spirit Empire.

...............

Within a month, the Star Luo Empire was destroyed, and the Heaven Dou Empire began to panic.

Some of the once arrogant and domineering nobles were terrified. One by one, they began to consider their options. Following the example of the Zhu family of the Star Luo Empire, they secretly pledged allegiance to the Martial Soul Empire.

Otherwise, what awaits them is the destruction of their families and the loss of their lives.

At this time, Emperor Qinghe raised his butcher's knife and slaughtered all the nobles who had criminal records in the Spirit Empire, regardless of whether they had surrendered to the Spirit Empire.

Just when everyone thought that Emperor Qinghe was going to fight to the death against the Spirit Empire, the Heaven Dou Empire suddenly announced its surrender.

Meanwhile, news spread from the Spirit Empire that Empress Bibi Dong and Grand Elder's granddaughter Qian Renxue had become gods.

To prevent the people within its borders from suffering from war, it submitted a letter of surrender to the Martial Soul Empire.

...............

That night!

The moon hangs like a silver platter, and the sky is filled with countless stars.

In Tiandou City, at the Azure Emperor's Mansion, in Qian Renxue's boudoir.

At this moment, Qian Renxue had already coaxed the two little ones, Lan Qingxue and Qian Qian, to sleep.

Suddenly, a wisp of blue light appeared on her right arm, and the lotus pattern flashed by. Qian Renxue's face lit up with joy, but she quickly regained her composure. While releasing her angelic divine sense to isolate the sound from the bed area, she flashed and appeared beside the table, sitting upright.

The next instant, the space behind them suddenly distorted, and Lan Ji walked out of the void with a smile.

"What...you finally decided to come back!" Qian Renxue said with her back to Lan Ji, her tone carrying a hint of jealousy.

"How could that be, Xue'er? I came straight here as soon as I dealt with that Dai Mubai guy." Lan Ji chuckled and quickly stepped forward to put his arm around Qian Renxue's shoulder.

"Really? I seem to remember that someone sent Dai Mubai to the tenement building a few days ago. And then he went to my mother's Purple Bamboo Grove for the next few days. He was having a great time." Qian Renxue said with her arms crossed, sounding annoyed.

"Cough cough..." Lan Ji cleared his throat guiltily, almost forgetting that Qian Renxue also had the skill 'Angel's Divine Sense'.

Chapter 418 Qian Renxue's Conditions (Remastered Version)

Lan had previously planted a spatial teleportation mark on Qian Renxue. Qian Renxue naturally also left a trace of 'angelic divine sense' on him.

As long as Lan Ji remains in Douluo Continent, it's as if he has a location tracking feature; no matter where he is, Qian Renxue will know exactly where he is.

"Um, where's Leng Leng?" Lan Ji glanced at the two little ones sleeping soundly on the bed, then poured Qian Renxue a cup of tea, trying to change the subject.

Qian Renxue knew that Lan Ji was avoiding the topic, but she could do nothing about it. After all, one was her mother and the other was the man she loved most.

Moreover, their shared experiences truly left her with no reason to separate them.

Qian Renxue took the tea, sipped it, and accepted Lan Ji's apology. "Leng Leng's Martial Soul, Sacred Heart Begonia, is quite unique. In terms of quality, it is even comparable to a six-winged angel with innate soul power of level 20. In addition, he was promoted to Title Douluo at the age of 26. His talent can be said to be no less than mine."

"Not long ago, a deity from the divine realm approached Leng Leng, wanting to pass on her divine position to her. She is about to undergo the divine examination, but because she didn't know when you would return, she went home to visit her parents first. She will be back in a few days."

Lan Ji's eyes lit up. "This is a good thing!"

“It’s a good thing, of course, but I estimate I’ll be away for three to five years afterward,” Qian Renxue pondered for a moment. “I can give you a few days off during this time, so you can spend some quality time with her.”

Lan Ji was somewhat surprised and embarrassed. "You knew all along?"

“I knew from the moment you two started having sex in Wuhun City. At the time, although I was still undergoing the Divine Trial, the Angel Statue of Douluo Hall was connected to the Angel Temple, so I wasn’t completely ignorant of the outside world.” Qian Renxue said with a mix of helplessness and sadness.

At first, she thought that Lan Ji would only love her.

She later discovered that Zhu Zhuqing had gotten there first.

Then it was his own mother.

Then there was Ye Lengleng, whom she remembered as someone who was very kind, never competitive, and who held the title of Lan Ji's cousin—the least threatening of them all.

No woman would feel good if she suddenly discovered that her man was a philanderer.

"I'm sorry." Lan Ji hugged Qian Renxue from behind.

"Don't give me that." Qian Renxue's voice was tinged with a sob, but mostly with sadness. "If you're really sincere, then don't go around bothering other women anymore."

"Alright, from now on, I will never provoke other women again without your permission," Lan Ji said solemnly.

Anyway, he's already slept with all the women he liked. He's even added the Empress to his harem. Five is enough. But the Empress needs to find an opportunity to properly mention it to her. Last time, when he brought Ye Lengleng and Zhu Zhuqing into the Azure Lotus Space, Qian Renxue was still undergoing her divine trial, so he didn't have a chance to say it.

"Really?" Qian Renxue turned around, wiped away her tears, and asked uncertainly.

"Of course." Lan Ji solemnly held up three fingers. "I swear, from this day forward, I will never see another woman without Qian Renxue's permission. If I break this promise..."

Before he could finish speaking, Qian Renxue covered his mouth, "Pah, don't say such nonsense, just promise me you won't flirt with other women anymore."

"Then you forgive me, right?" Lan Ji picked up Qian Renxue in a princess carry and walked towards the bed.

Qian Renxue blushed and turned her head away, which was taken as tacit agreement.

Seeing Lan Ji walk towards the bed, she knew exactly what he was going to do. She felt both ashamed and angry.

"What are you doing?" The ex-offender O(∩_∩)O The child is still next to us.

"It's alright, the bed is big enough anyway, and you used your divine power to block out the sound, so they can't hear it." Lan Ji smiled mischievously and put Qian Renxue on the bed.

Qian Renxue glanced at the two little ones sleeping soundly beside her, confirming they were in a deep sleep. She then glared fiercely at Lan Ji, saying nothing more, which was taken as tacit agreement.

Lan Ji casually extinguished the light... (millions of words omitted here).

Silent all night.

The next morning, Lan Ji woke up from her sleep and looked at the familiar ceiling. It was her own room. Lan Ji knew that last night, Qian Renxue was worried that the child would find out, so she moved her out of her room while she was asleep.

After getting dressed and washing up, Lan Ji came out of his room. He saw Qian Renxue had already prepared breakfast in the courtyard, and the two little ones were enjoying it. When she saw Lan Ji come out, she blushed and glared at him, clearly still blaming him for her bold behavior the night before.
