Chapter 204: Qian Daoliu Recalls Qian Renxue
"Grand Worshiper, are you telling the truth?"
As soon as Qian Daoliu said this, Golden Crocodile Douluo could no longer sit still and asked anxiously.
At the same time, Lion Douluo was also shocked. No wonder Qian Daoliu looked so grim upon his return—he couldn't even defeat Mo Hui!
Qian Daoliu nodded and said, "This young man's name is Mo Hui. You should have heard of him. He is now the successor of the Sea God and should currently be undergoing the God Test.
At the same time, we have to admit, he is indeed the most talented genius I've ever seen. Even Tang Chen and I are far inferior to him."
As he spoke, Qian Daoliu couldn't help but sigh inwardly: Why is it that these peerless talents always stand in opposition to the Spirit Hall? Bibi Dong is like this, and so is Mo Hui. Could it be that fate is not on our side?
"Mo Hui? The successor of the Sea God?"
Upon hearing this, everyone present was stunned. Mo Hui—wasn't he not even twenty years old yet?
Golden Crocodile Douluo even turned to Lion Douluo and asked directly, "Old Four, is what the Grand Worshiper said true? You really lost to a level 84 junior?"
Lion Douluo's face flushed, but he nodded and admitted, "What the Grand Worshiper said is true. That man's speed is unmatched—even faster than the Grand Worshiper himself!"
"Hiss~~~~"
Hearing Lion Douluo's confirmation, the five worshipers present couldn't help but gasp in shock.
It was almost inconceivable that a Soul Douluo at level 84 had defeated a peak-level Douluo at level 97. And yet, this had actually happened right under their noses.
At this moment, Qianjun Douluo frowned and said, "The appearance of such a figure is not good for our Spirit Hall!
More importantly, his speed is so great that even if all of us go together, it would still be difficult to take him down!"
Upon hearing this, Demon-Subduing Douluo suggested, "Since Mo Hui himself is too fast to catch, why don't we target the people around him? I don't believe they're as fast as he is."
But before he could finish, Qian Daoliu kicked him away and roared angrily, "Are you an idiot? Do they have more people, or do we?
If you harm Mo Hui's loved ones, he'll have nothing left to fear. What do you think he'll do then? With his speed, I wouldn't be able to stop him from escaping. And if he decides to retaliate against Spirit Hall, it would be devastating. After that, who among us would dare leave Spirit City? Anyone who goes out would be doomed!"
Qian Daoliu was so angry he laughed. How could someone be so short-sighted?
Demon-Subduing Douluo clutched his stomach and muttered aggrievedly, "I meant we could capture his relatives and friends alive to hold him back."
But Qian Daoliu still shook his head firmly and said, "No. I just swore a five-year non-aggression agreement with him, witnessed by both the Angel God and the Sea God. If we break that agreement, the consequences will be severe.
Pass down my orders: No one is to attack Mo Hui's loved ones under any circumstances. I will speak to Bibi Dong personally."
"Yes, Grand Worshiper!"
With these words, all the Spirit Hall worshipers present bowed slightly to Qian Daoliu, then turned to leave the hall.
"Golden Crocodile, wait."
Just as they were about to exit, Qian Daoliu suddenly called out to Golden Crocodile Douluo.
"Grand Worshiper, do you have another order?" Golden Crocodile Douluo asked, a bit puzzled.
Qian Daoliu said seriously, "There's something I can only entrust to you."
"What is it?" Golden Crocodile Douluo's expression instantly became solemn.
Qian Daoliu replied, "Go to the Heaven Dou Empire and recall Xiaoxue, who is currently on an undercover mission."
"Recall Xiaoxue? But isn't her undercover plan about to succeed? If we recall her now, wouldn't that make all our efforts go to waste?"
Golden Crocodile Douluo frowned.
After all, to help Qian Renxue infiltrate and collapse the Heaven Dou Empire from within, Spirit Hall had paid a steep price. Now that things were finally going smoothly, it seemed like a huge loss to pull out now.
"Sigh..." Qian Daoliu let out a deep sigh and said, "There's something I didn't mention earlier. Five years from now, our Spirit Hall will have to send someone to fight Mo Hui. The winner will determine the future of the other side."
He then paused and added:
"Although Mo Hui was able to challenge me only by taking advantage of terrain and external forces, I too received a massive boost from the environment.
In my judgment, Mo Hui's qualities in every aspect are now no less than mine—and he may even surpass me. The only difference is soul power.
With the divine test on his side, five years is more than enough time for him to catch up in soul power. Given his current rate of growth, there's a very high chance that I won't be his match five years from now."
"What!?"
Hearing this, Golden Crocodile Douluo was completely shaken.
Although Qian Daoliu had said earlier that he couldn't defeat Mo Hui, Golden Crocodile had assumed that Mo Hui relied solely on his speed to narrowly avoid defeat.
But now, Qian Daoliu's words completely shattered that assumption. Golden Crocodile Douluo suddenly felt a growing sense of unease.
If even Qian Daoliu admitted inferiority, what chance would they have against Mo Hui?
Seeing his reaction, Qian Daoliu smiled faintly and patted him on the shoulder.
"Don't be so alarmed. Although Mo Hui is exceptional in every way, his current weakness is his soul power, still stuck at level 84.
He was able to fight me only because he was in a place rich in wind-elemental energy, and his domain allows him to convert that wind energy into usable soul power.
If he leaves that place, defeating the Lion would be his current limit."
"Whew..."
Golden Crocodile Douluo exhaled slowly in relief—but his heart remained heavy.
Though Qian Daoliu's words offered some comfort, they also revealed something more ominous: the gap between Mo Hui and himself wasn't large at all. Once Mo Hui's soul power increased, he would be the first one to be surpassed!
Qian Daoliu continued, "So our current top priority is not to dismantle the Heaven Dou Empire from within, but to train someone who can face Mo Hui in five years.
The only person who can do that now is Xiaoxue! Only by receiving and completing her God Test can she hope to match him."
"Golden Crocodile, we don't have much time left!"
Qian Daoliu looked at Golden Crocodile Douluo and spoke with great seriousness.
After listening carefully, Golden Crocodile Douluo finally understood the current crisis facing the Spirit Hall. He nodded and said resolutely:
"I understand. I'll head to the Heaven Dou Empire immediately and bring Xiaoxue back!"
