Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul is the Ten Ferocious Heavenly Horned Ant

The scorching sun beat down on everyone, but no matter how intense the midday sun was, it had no effect on those inside the room.

Tian Dou City, Tulip Hotel, VIP Box No. 1.

This is an extremely prestigious and luxurious room. In the very center of the room, there is a blue basket filled with ice cubes that exude a chilling aura.

In the corner near the window, there was a round wooden table covered with all sorts of delicacies, including many delicious dishes made by ten-thousand-year-old soul beasts.

Beside the round wooden table were four chairs of moderate height, each occupied by a person who was enjoying their rare lunch.

I don't know why...

There were no maids or waiters in the room. In the huge room, there were only four people sitting in chairs: one man and three women, namely Dong Qing, Bibi Dong, Qian Renxue, and Hu Liena.

Just now.

Qian Renxue put down her cutlery and calmly looked at Dong Qing, saying, "Xiao Qing, I have a question I'd like to ask you. If, I mean if, I, my sister, and that fox spirit next to us all fell into the river, who would you save first?"

Because of Bibi Dong's presence, there is an unspoken fear of outsiders spying on them.

Qian Renxue has now returned to her original appearance, but unfortunately, her exquisite and flawless face now carries a hint of malice.

As for this problem of deliberately making things difficult for men, creating the question of who to save first if someone falls into the water, it was Dongqing's deliberate revenge for flirting with Liu Erlong in front of her.

Qian Renxue was not so innocent and harmless by nature. Otherwise, the dark Qian Renxue, a six-winged fallen angel who wields darkness, would not have been born from her.

"You unfilial daughter... It's not easy for us to have a meal together, can't you be serious for once!"

Bibi Dong gave Qian Renxue a cold look, but she didn't expect her to call her "Mom".

For many years, Qian Renxue had been sulking with Bibi Dong, always calling her "sister" in private and in public, and never once hearing her call her "mother."

However, Bibi Dong didn't particularly dislike this title, since every woman prefers a more youthful title.

As for their mother-daughter relationship, it cannot be changed or reversed simply by Qian Renxue not calling her "Mom".

In this life, she was destined to be Qian Renxue's mother, and she was destined to be her daughter.

the other side.

Upon hearing Qian Renxue call her a fox spirit, Hu Liena was not to be outdone and retorted without hesitation.

"I possess the Demon Fox Martial Soul, which is essentially a fox spirit... In that case, Qian Renxue, what should we call your Martial Soul? Should we call you the six-winged birdman?"

Just when Dongqing thought that there was nothing more for her to do, she let the three of them bicker at the dinner table.

To his surprise...

next moment.

The three of them suddenly turned around and stared at him, their eyes filled with expectation. They said in unison, "Xiaoqing, tell me, if the three of us fell into the river, who would you save first?"

have to say.

Women's minds are hard to fathom; one moment they're bickering, the next they're arguing with men.

The rapidly changing situation almost made Dongqing choke on the food in his mouth. He quickly picked up the teacup next to his elbow and gulped down a cup of tea to soothe his throat.

Faced with this deadly question...

Dongqing's first reaction was to play dead. He stretched and assumed a sleepy posture, then propped his chin up with his arms and forced himself to doze off at the dining table.

A dull thud sounded.

Unfortunately, after being kicked three times in a row, Dong Qing couldn't continue pretending to be dead and remaining silent. He could only scratch the back of his head and chuckle dryly, "Uh... this... haha... who do you think I should save first?"

Ultimately, he chose to pass the buck, not wanting to touch on this potentially offensive issue.

It wasn't that Dong Qing was afraid of the three women, but mainly that he was afraid of trouble. The three beauties of the Spirit Hall, Bibi Dong, Qian Renxue, and Hu Liena, were all man-eating sharks.

"Xiaoqing, now it's your turn to ask me questions, not for you to ask us back!" Qian Renxue frowned her pretty brows.

Today, Qian Renxue is determined to make Dong Qing suffer, just like when she saw Dong Qing reach out and hit Liu Erlong from behind [below the waist] in the Heavenly Dou Arena.

"I'm very curious about the answer to this question, Xiaoqing. You won't let your senior sister down, will you?" Hu Liena's lips curled into a playful smile.

Having not seen her adorable junior brother suffer a setback in a long time, she felt extremely excited, and even had a slight thought of cooperating with Qian Renxue to bully Dong Qing.

Although Hu Liena was already Dong Qing's woman and the two had married, for some reason, she still preferred their former relationship as senior and junior brothers.

at this time.

Bibi Dong couldn't help but interject, "Xiao Qing, I'm very interested in the answer to this question. If you can give me a satisfactory answer, I will reward you handsomely!"

Something was off. As soon as the words were spoken, Qian Renxue and Hu Liena frowned. They sensed something was very wrong. The way they were talking sounded like a couple flirting.

They had no interest in continuing the discussion with Dongqing about the previous issue. The two of them, with their four eyes as big as light bulbs, were staring intently at Bibi Dong's face.

Two scrutinizing gazes seemed to want to see through Bibi Dong from head to toe, to see through the secrets in her heart, and to see through the special relationship between her and Dong Qing in private.

The reason Qian Renxue brought up that question and included Bibi Dong was simply because it was a casual remark.

What she really wanted to know was who was more important to Dong Qing, her or Hu Liena.

But to her utter surprise, Bibi Dong also asked this question, and it felt extremely strange.

One minute later.

Soon, feeling somewhat guilty for stealing Dongqing's food, Bibi Dong found herself struggling to withstand the scrutinizing gazes of Qian Renxue and Hu Liena.

But she wouldn't be fooled by Qian Renxue and Hu Liena into revealing her dirty secrets with Dong Qing.

Under the scrutinizing gazes of Qian Renxue and Hu Liena, Bibi Dong preemptively accused the villain, slamming her jade-like hand hard on the table while displaying the authority of an elder.

"Xue'er, Nana, what kind of strange looks are those? Are you trying to rebel? Remember, I will always be your teacher and your mother. You must not be so disrespectful to your elders!"

Before the two girls could answer, Bibi Dong continued, "I've finished eating. Xiao Qing, why don't you come with me for a walk to clear my head?"

When Bibi Dong adopted her usual assertive attitude, she instantly intimidated Qian Renxue and Hu Liena, greatly diminishing the strong suspicion in their eyes.

Most importantly, her calm and collected manner in instructing Dongqing to accompany her for a walk made Qian Renxue and Hu Liena wonder if they were overthinking things.

“Okay, teacher,” Dong Qing said calmly.

Actually, he had just broken out in a cold sweat, fearing that Qian Renxue and Hu Liena had really figured out his improper relationship with his teacher, Bibi Dong.

Fortunately, Bibi Dong's authority remained, and she used her status as an elder to forcefully suppress the sudden suspicions that arose in the two women.

Chapter 398, [Large-scale Simulated Training Ground]

After Dongqing and Bibi Dong left, Qian Renxue and Hu Liena exchanged a glance, a trace of doubt still lingering in the depths of their pupils.

“Hu Liena, I’ve been playing the role of Xue Qinghe, the Crown Prince of the Heavenly Dou Empire, in Heavenly Dou City all these years. You’ve spent more time in the Papal Palace than I have. My sister… my mother, and Xiao Qing, have you ever shown any signs of something amiss in private?” Qian Renxue asked in a deep voice.

The topic of mother and daughter is the most taboo subject. She can accept Dong Qing's philandering, but she is completely unprepared for the idea of ​​a mother and daughter with a man.

"It's alright! In previous years, Teacher did dote on Xiaoqing quite a bit, wanting to be with her every day and even sleeping together at night. But in recent years, she has become quite distant from Xiaoqing, and Xiaoqing rarely seeks her advice on cultivation issues," Hu Liena said as she recalled.

What Hu Liena didn't know was that her "I wish I could" was actually a definite statement; behind the scenes, Dong Qing had been making Bibi Dong's body pillow for many years.

"Is that so? Then it shouldn't be a big problem. There shouldn't be anything between the two of them. What she just said... it's possible that we overreacted." Qian Renxue muttered to herself.

At this point, Hu Liena continued, "But strangely, recently, the teacher has suddenly become more irritable, especially towards Xiaoqing."

Hearing Hu Liena say this, Qian Renxue said indifferently, "It's normal. Women going through menopause are like this. My sister... my mother is not young either, so it's understandable that she likes to get angry for no reason."

Although she knew that Title Douluos had very long lifespans, especially peerless Douluos like Bibi Dong, whose lifespan had exceeded a thousand years, she still couldn't help but compare them to ordinary women.

Menopause typically occurs in women around 40 to 50 years old; some women may experience slight irritability.

Although Qian Renxue is only in her early twenties, she is not a cultivation fanatic who only knows how to cultivate.

When he is alone in the Crown Prince's Hall of the Heavenly Dou Imperial Palace, he will read many books that are unrelated to cultivation.

the other side.

Outside Tiandou City, in the Sunset Forest, in the Valley of the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye.

"Xiao Qing, the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well is quite good. It is no less than a large-scale simulated training ground, and it is completely natural. The training effect is more significant. It is incomparable to a large-scale simulated training ground that is synthesized later using various rare and precious materials."

"Moreover, this kind of pure natural large-scale simulated training ground does not require a large amount of gold soul coins to maintain every year. In addition, the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well is more suitable for soul masters to cultivate than ordinary large-scale simulated training grounds, making it a good place to cultivate talents."

"I heard that you acquired it from Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan through a trade, which was a very good deal. However, since the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well is now your private property, shouldn't your teacher also have a share in its ownership?"

Bibi Dong wore a long, shimmering gold dress that fit her perfectly from head to toe, clinging to her exquisite figure and showcasing the mature charm of a sophisticated woman.

She wore a papal crown of moderate size, inlaid with a sapphire the size of a pebble, and held a papal scepter symbolizing majesty in her hand.

Now, she possesses not only a unique air of elegance and nobility, but also the spring light subtly revealed from the slit of her long dress, which seems to warm all things in the world.

Large-scale simulated training ground

simply put.

Large-scale simulated training grounds are where Soul Masters can improve their meditation training speed. Training in a large-scale simulated training ground is about one to one and a half times faster than normal training.

Even though large-scale simulated training grounds are very effective for Soul Masters' meditation and cultivation, creating a large-scale simulated training ground is not a simple matter.

The first creation not only requires hundreds of millions of gold soul coins, but also requires the personal intervention of a titled Douluo.

At the same time, to maintain a rich concentration of natural energy within a large-scale simulated training ground, it is necessary to spend millions of gold soul coins annually to purchase various rare and precious materials for maintenance.

Therefore, apart from the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, Star Luo Royal Academy, and Spirit Hall Elite Soul Master Academy, other advanced soul master academies in Douyu basically do not have large-scale simulated training grounds.

Even disregarding the fact that the initial creation requires hundreds of millions of gold soul coins, the annual routine maintenance alone requires millions of gold soul coins, which is beyond the reach of ordinary advanced soul master academies.

Shrek Academy: I suspect you're talking about me, but I have no proof.

.....

"Of course, mine is the teacher's."

Dong Qing did not refute Bibi Dong, because he knew very well that women usually considered what belonged to their men as something they also had a share in.

but.....

Some women just talk the talk, while others take it all for granted.

"Since that's the case, Xiaoqing, you should also be one of my people, so shouldn't you take the initiative to be more considerate?" Bibi Dong's voice sounded somewhat frivolous.

???

Three question marks slowly floated up above Dong Qing's head. He looked at Bibi Dong, whose face was slightly flushed, and immediately felt a special danger slowly descending.

In the blink of an eye, he seemed to see two terrifying behemoths descending from the sky, a Death Spider King and a Soul-Devouring Spider King, baring their teeth at him.
