--- Chapter 198 ---
After taking a quick shower, Han Yuan went to the dining room with fresh clothes and saw Qian Renxue still standing like a statue. He glanced at Han Yue and noticed her giggling.
"What did you do to her?" asked Han Yuan.
Han Yue smiled carelessly, pretending to be dumb. "Oh, I don't know, she just became a statue after you teased her earlier."
'Like I'd believe you!' Han Yuan thought immediately.
Although his sister acts virtuous and cold most of the time, she's actually just as naughty as Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu, especially in their inner social circle. The only difference is that she's simply more mature than those girls.
Initially, Han Yue was like an impenetrable wall shielding Han Yuan from the girls. However, with the arrival of Ah Yin, she became less cruel and decided to be more playful. She's more relaxed and accepting of the fact that Han Yuan's harem is growing.
Of course, that doesn't mean she would accept any girl or woman.
Han Yue leaned on the dining table, "She's cute. Don't you think so, Xiao Yuan?"
"..." Han Yuan.
'This must be a trap!'
"Yeah, let's wake her up. I am afraid she was going to be a decoration at this point." Changing the topic, Han Yuan tapped Qian Renxue's forehead under the watchful gaze of Han Yue.
The angel girl snapped out of her thought as she noticed Han Yuan in new clothes, standing before her. Upon waking up, she immediately fired a few questions at him, though.
"What happened? You finished showering already?"
"So fast!"
"Nothing happened between you and your sister, right?"
Han Yuan's mouth twitched as he glanced at Han Yue helplessly, to which the moon-like girl responded with a giggle. "What do you mean by that, huh? You wanted something to happen between me and my sister?"
"Also, don't call a man fast. That sounds discouraging."
"B-But..." Qian Renxue noticed Han Yue smiling at her and then realized this woman was teasing her. Yet, for some reason, she felt disappointed because if Han Yue had really done it, she might have also done it.
After all, Han Yuan challenged her first. It's not her fault if she barged into the middle of his shower.
Of course, I-It's not like Qian Renxue wanted to see Han Yuan naked or anything, Hmph!
With that in mind, Qian Renxue pushed Han Yuan away and pounced on Han Yue for teasing her.
"Hahaha, I'm sorry, Renxue!" Han Yue was being tickled by Qian Renxue, laughing weakly. "You're just too cute, and so easy to tease~!"
"Take this!" Qian Renxue tickled the area near Han Yue's armpits.
"AAH~!"
Han Yuan saw this and couldn't help but feel tempted to join in. However, he decided not to because the angel girl was glaring at him.
Not long after, Ah Yin also returned home with a bag. She tossed the bag onto the sofa and sat on the dining chair.
"Did I miss something?" asked Ah Yin.
Han Yuan smiled helplessly, "No. Let's eat."
The four of them sat around the dining table and ate the dishes that Han Yue and Qian Renxue had cooked. Han Yuan praised the cooking's taste, though he criticized that some diced carrots and vegetables were very uneven in size.
Qian Renxue grumbled, "Then, don't eat it."
"I never said it was unedible. It's alright." Han Yuan rolled his eyes at Qian Renxue and continued to eat, stuffing his mouth as he was hungry.
"Okay, stop fighting, you two." Ah Yin sighed, placing more meat on Han Yuan's plate.
Although Han Yuan hadn't done much heavy training in the past couple of days while he adjusted to his new gains from the Elemental Pane, he had started a new, smaller project. This project involved adding new spirit skills to his External Spirit Bone, known as the Fallen Holy Finger.
And Ah Yin knew about it. After all, she was the one who taught him how to do it.
"Xiao Yuan, how is the progress with your spirit bone?"
Han Yuan downed a glass of water and replied, "I haven't decided what skills to add to my Fallen Holy Finger."
"Fallen Holy Finger, it was from the bamboo, right?" Han Yue suddenly interjected.
Han Yuan nodded, "Mm. With the help of White Angelic Dragon, my spirit bone successfully reached 139,999 years old. I have been sealing the essence to engrave a suitable spirit skill."
"That spirit bone, huh?" Qian Renxue commented with a knowing look as she recalled Han Yuan's rejection of the White Angelic Dragon's 100,000-year-old spirit bone. "By the way, my Spirit Soul has a name, Xiao Tian, and she prefers you call her that."
"Yeah, Xiao Tian, got it." Han Yuan responded casually.
Han Yue glanced at Qian Renxue and added, "If I'm not wrong, the Fallen Lightning Bamboo is somewhat connected to your angel's lineage. Don't you have a record of its power?"
Qian Renxue pouted, "If he's so stuck with the spirit skill, then I suggest you add a spirit skill that can multiply the amount of spears you can produce, like a clone."
"From what I see, you like to throw your spear anyway."
"If that doesn't work, you can work on a killing-type spirit skill, something your opponent can't resist."
Han Yuan raised his eyebrow, "Fair point."
"Mm, not bad." Ah Yin and Han Yue agreed, too.
"Of course, who do you think I am?" Qian Renxue proudly harrumphed before stuffing her mouth with rice.
Ah Yin rubbed her chin and commented, "Now that I thought about it, some bamboo plant spirit beasts either have vitality-like spirit skill, thorns, or sharp sword energy."
"Maybe you can engrave something like spear energy, Xiao Yuan. I think the cloning skill Renxue mentioned is good, so that's three already."
Han Yuan took the advice and shrugged, "I will see what I can do about it later. Honestly, I am thinking of sharing some critical announcements tonight."
"I might go away somewhere for a while."
"Hmm, why all of a sudden?" The three women looked at him in confusion.
Han Yuan bitterly
"Because this place is another world." Han Yuan replied bluntly.
"Another world?" They were shocked. "You can do that?"
Although they knew how amazing Han Yuan was, visiting another world was not one of them.
Han Yuan nodded solemnly, "I need to do this to temper myself more."
"Is this world more dangerous than ours?" asked Han Yue worriedly.
"Yes." Han Yuan answered truthfully. "A few experts in this world could easily decimate the Douluo Continent; the peak expert can even fight our God-level Experts, though I don't know who would win."
"Their cultivation system is much more mature than ours."
"Then, again, Spirit Master's cultivation system is cheating in a way. They have a better foundation, but we have a faster route." Han Yuan believed that the mortal cultivation system of Douluo Dalu is weaker than the Dou Qi Cultivation System.
However, Gods in the Douluo Dalu World are stronger due to their hacks and attainment of laws. Heck! Even some Title Douluo in the third and fourth series are on a whole other level! Some of their martial souls are so 'disgustingly' overpowered that Dou Qi Continent's experts might not have a chance.
It's not a matter of the cultivation system, but a whole higher-dimensional difference. Ultimately, the Divine Realm is a melting pot of several worlds. Calling it a small-sized multiverse wasn't wrong either.
After reaching god-level, the spirit master stepped into a higher space of existence and became a 4th-dimensional being. Godking is even more than that, becoming a 5th-dimensional being.
In the latter book of Douluo Dalu, resisting dimensional invasion, cleaving through space and time, destroying the dimensional barrier, and travelling through the universe become the peak of Douluo Dalu's power system.
On the other hand, the peak realm that is the Dou God Realm from BTTH is impressive, but the feat is not on the same level at all. At the end of the day, the Dou Qi Continent or Plane is just one of many lower planes in the Great Thousand Worlds.
Producing one Dou God alone is virtually impossible if protagonists like Xiao Yuan or a world-destroying villain like Hun Tiandi didn't exist.
If we compare Douluo Dalu to the Great Thousand Worlds from the Great Ruler Realm, then God-Level Experts would really lose. And that is not even close.
Han Yuan shook his head gently, "Of course, I won't look for trouble in this world."
"I will try to be as lowkey as possible."
"Can you bring us there?" Qian Renxue's eyes lit up in expectation.
Han Yuan gave Qian Renxue a speechless look, "Don't you hear me earlier? This place is dangerous."
"Your strength is impressive here, but there? Unless you have reached the Title Douluo Realm and attained a higher comprehension of space control and manipulation, I won't allow it. After I gain enough foothold there, I might bring you and others there."
"A place without Asura is much better anyway."
"Don't forget that you're the Son of Plane. Who is going to protect the Douluo Plane if you're not here?" Han Yuan pinched Qian Renxue's cheek hard before stuffing her mouth with a steak.
Qian Renxue chewed on the meat fiercely, "Hmph, I'm just saying."
Ah Yin was in deep thought before saying, "Can't you just send a clone there?"
"Anyway, you're only looking for a chance."
"You don't have to be so cautious if you only send a clone."
"Clone, huh?" Han Yuan fell into a deep thought.
"That might work..."
