Chapter 344: Chapter 344: Qian Renxue Has Grown!

Qian Renxue was first startled, then moved.

"Ah..."

She let out a long sigh. "Brother Feng remembers my aspirations so clearly.

How could I dare forget them!

But this is ultimately a world of Soul Masters, where the strong are respected.

A century of accumulation by my Xue Family can’t compare to the combat power of a single Super Douluo from the Dai Family.

This matter has made me understand many things - in the end, everything depends on strength.

Brother Feng, do you remember when I told you that my talent isn’t bad either?

Look at my strength now!"

Qian Renxue smiled proudly as a rich golden light burst forth, and six Spirit Rings rose from beneath her feet.

Yellow! Yellow! Purple! Purple! Black! Black!

Soul Emperor cultivation!

"Brother Feng, I’ve already broken through to Soul Emperor. Although it’s still nothing compared to Dai Tian Jun’s cultivation, I’m confident I can cultivate to Titled Douluo in the future.

And with you too, Brother Feng - when you cultivate to Titled Douluo, the two of us joining forces again, what can Dai Tian Jun do? We’ll definitely kill him on the battlefield!

But for now, we can’t waste time in this stalemate.

It doesn’t matter if I waste my time, but I can’t delay your cultivation, Brother Feng. Your talent is too precious - you’re the future of Heaven Dou!"

Qian Renxue spoke emotionally, her words half-truths that actually contained her own schemes.

She was slowly revealing her strength to the outside world.

Six months ago, she had left for several days to absorb her eighth Spirit Ring. After returning, she immediately announced to the public that she had absorbed her sixth Spirit Ring and become a Soul Emperor.

This caused quite a stir in the Royal Soul Master Legion.

The stronger the Emperor’s cultivation, the brighter the future would undoubtedly be.

After all, Qian Renxue wasn’t old yet - just under thirty-two years old now. A thirty-two-year-old Soul Emperor could be considered a genius.

Of course, Qian Renxue’s true cultivation was Soul Douluo. She really didn’t want to waste her time anymore.

It would be too foolish to spend time confronting Dai Tian Jun now.

She wanted to cultivate to Titled Douluo as quickly as possible.

Dugu Feng was astonished inwardly - had Qian Renxue grown?

She actually wanted to devote herself completely to cultivation.

And just now, he had sensed Qian Renxue’s true cultivation level - it was actually one level higher than his, reaching level eighty-four.

This shocked him, especially since Qian Renxue had only broken through to Soul Douluo six months ago.

How could she cultivate so fast?

In an instant, Dugu Feng understood.

Qian Renxue must have absorbed a 100,000-Year Soul Bone, and given Qian Renxue’s physical strength, she must have absorbed Spirit Rings beyond her level too.

Now that another half year had passed, with all these conditions combined, reaching level eighty-four wasn’t impossible.

He never thought that the deaths of Snake Spear Douluo and Thorn Soul Douluo would actually make Qian Renxue grow first.

But it was too late for her to turn things around now.

Her Soul Power Level had already been caught up to by him, and he would soon surpass her.

If Qian Renxue had reached Titled Douluo by now, she might still pose a threat to Dugu Feng.

But with this one-step difference, she would only fall further behind in the future.

After remaining silent for a while, Dugu Feng said: "Brother Xue, I underestimated you.

Since you have such cultivation talent, then let’s endure for now. When we both cultivate to Titled Douluo and join forces, we’ll dominate the continent.

Whether it’s the Star Luo Empire or the Spirit Hall, they’ll all have to submit to us!"

Qian Renxue’s face lit up with excitement. "Haha, Feng Xiongdi, don’t worry, I won’t let you down. Let me toast you with tea instead of wine!"

Clink!

A crisp sound rang out as both of them took large gulps of tea.

The atmosphere in the room grew increasingly lively.

They began discussing cultivation again, with Qian Renxue explaining the Xue Family’s Swan Martial Soul in great detail - after all, she had just demonstrated the Swan Martial Soul to Dugu Feng.

Since the Swan Martial Soul shared similarities with the Six-Winged Angel Spirit, Qian Renxue believed Dugu Feng couldn’t see through her disguise.

Little did she know that all her secrets had been completely exposed.

They conversed deep into the night before Dugu Feng returned to his residence.

He immediately began cultivating, showing no unusual behavior and maintaining his displayed Soul Power Level as a Soul Saint.

Dugu Feng remained so cautious because he still hadn’t detected the presence of Qian Renxue’s bodyguard.

Who had Qiandao Liu assigned to protect Qian Renxue this time?

Whoever it was, this powerful expert must be observing him from the shadows right now.

He absolutely couldn’t reveal any abnormalities.

Two days passed like this, when numerous reports came from the south bank of Tongshui River - a supply storage city not far from Star Luo Empire’s South Tong Pass had rebelled.

The Star Luo Emperor Dai Tian Jun led troops south to suppress the rebellion.

After receiving the news, Qian Renxue showed no intention of deploying troops.

She shared her thoughts with Dugu Feng: given Dai Tian Jun’s control over the Star Luo Empire, this minor rebellion wouldn’t cause any real trouble. Deploying troops now might play right into Dai Tian Jun’s hands. Ultimately, the Heaven Dou side lacked any Soul Master powerful enough to match Dai Tian Jun.

Even Dugu Bo could only defend but not attack.

Qian Renxue even seized this opportunity to withdraw some auxiliary troops back to Heaven Dou’s heartland.

She was genuinely preparing to cease hostilities.

Then the entire battlefield fell silent.

With Dai Tian Jun’s departure and Qian Renxue’s intention to stop fighting, even minor skirmishes ceased.

The years-long war between Heaven Dou and Star Luo seemed about to end just like this.

The Star Luo Empire also appeared to sense Qian Renxue’s goodwill and began withdrawing some auxiliary forces to the rear.

Both sides wanted to reduce the war’s intensity.

Then more news arrived - Dai Tian Jun had appeared in Star Luo’s capital.

Now the flames of war were completely dying out!

Dugu Feng timely staged a performance, claiming that Old Scorpion had broken through to Soul Douluo and needed Dugu Bo’s help hunting for Spirit Rings. Qian Renxue naturally agreed, as even she planned to leave Tongshui City and return to Heaven Dou City.

No one paid attention to the war anymore - the next focus would undoubtedly be the Star Dou Great Forest.

Dugu Feng and Dugu Bo bid farewell to Qian Renxue and quickly left Tongshui City.

Three days later, they met up with Tang Xiao, Dai Tian Jun, and Zhu Lan Yun.

Former enemies now had to cooperate against the Spirit Hall.

"Brother Dai, my previous offenses, I hope you can forgive them," Dugu Bo said coldly, speaking first.

"No problem," Dai Tian Jun replied indifferently.

The mediator Tang Xiao laughed heartily twice: "The conflict between Heaven Dou and Star Luo is merely worldly power struggle. We cultivators shouldn’t indulge in it. Only pursuing higher realms should be our goal. What do you think?"

Dai Tian Jun and Zhu Lan Yun smiled in agreement, and Dugu Feng and Dugu Bo did the same.

"That’s right. In the Spirit Master World, we still share a common enemy—Bibi Dong. She is the one who truly threatens our lives.

Ning Zongzhu and the others have already headed to the Star Dou Great Forest. We shouldn’t delay any longer. Let’s go!"

Led by Tang Xiao, Dugu Bo, Dai Tian Jun, Zhu Lan Yun, and Dugu Feng followed closely behind as they hurried toward the Star Dou Great Forest.
