"What!?"
Upon hearing this, Serpent Spear Douluo was greatly shocked; he had not expected that Qian Daoliu would have such a plan.
Then, the Serpent Spear Douluo glanced at Qian Renxue discreetly and tentatively asked, "So, what do you mean, Young Master?"
Qian Renxue's tone remained calm: "If the information is true, then Qing Mu is indeed qualified to be my husband."
Upon hearing this, Serpent Spear Douluo was once again shaken, and the way he looked at Qian Renxue changed.
Qian Renxue's words completely surprised him. He had thought that with Qian Renxue's pride, she would scoff at the idea of a marriage alliance.
"but..."
Suddenly, Qian Renxue changed the subject, saying, "I remember Qingmu seems to already have a girlfriend?"
"It's Ye Lingling from the Ye family."
Although shocked, Serpent Spear Douluo nodded and explained, "The message said that he and Ye Lingling of the Ye family had reached the point of discussing marriage. The reason he slaughtered the sect some time ago was to avenge the Ye family."
"Oh, I see. That does make things a bit troublesome."
Qian Renxue's eyes flashed, and she pondered, "My current mission is still some time away from ending. As the Crown Prince, Xue Qinghe has many things to do and simply doesn't have much time to contact Qing Mu."
Furthermore, I don't know Qing Mu's attitude yet. The probing by the two Douluo, Demon Bear and Ghost Leopard, left a bad impression on him. If I appear before him as the daughter of the former Pope of the Spirit Hall, he might not accept me.
Upon hearing Qian Renxue's words, Serpent Spear Douluo immediately said, "Young Master's true form is of unparalleled beauty, capable of captivating a nation. Once he appears before Qing Mu, Qing Mu will surely be immediately captivated by his charm."
"I hope so."
Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue simply smiled noncommittally. Although she was confident in her own charm, she was not at the level that could make people fall in love at first sight.
Moreover, if Qing Mu really fell in love with her at first sight because of her appearance, then in her eyes, Qing Mu was nothing special.
Subsequently, Qian Renxue, using her identity as the Crown Prince of Tiandou, Xue Qinghe, issued an order to organize a grand banquet and extended a warm invitation to Qing Mu to attend the banquet in Tiandou City.
"The Crown Prince has invited me to a banquet?"
Inside the Ye family courtyard, Qing Mu accepted the invitation and raised an eyebrow.
Isn't Xue Qinghe the same person as Qian Renxue? What kind of scheme is she planning?
The envoy smiled and said, "Your Majesty Qingmu, this is indeed the will of Crown Prince Qinghe. At the same time, Emperor Xueye and many other dukes also wish to see you. Please do not refuse."
"I'm sorry, I still need to cultivate and don't have time to attend this so-called banquet."
Qing Mu shook her head and returned the invitation to the envoy.
Upon seeing this, the messenger's expression changed slightly. He did not accept the invitation, but bowed slightly and continued, "Your Majesty Qingmu, since the invitation has been sent, it will not be taken back. As for your participation in the banquet, please consider it carefully."
After saying this, the messenger quickly left the Ye family.
Qing Mu didn't pay any attention to this, and simply tossed the gold-embossed invitation into the almost full bamboo basket next to him.
Clearly, this was not the first invitation he had received. If it hadn't been sent by the Crown Prince Xue Qinghe of the Empire, he wouldn't have even given it a second glance.
"These forces are really annoying."
Qingmu returned to her room, feeling somewhat helpless.
Since Qing Mu demonstrated his strength, countless forces have tried to win him over and cultivate a good relationship with him, to the point that Qing Mu has become somewhat annoyed.
"but..."
At this moment, Qing Mu changed the subject and continued, "My goal can be considered to have been achieved."
Why did he expose his strength? Why did he massacre so many forces? Wasn't it all to make those forces fear him and dare not provoke him again?
The endless stream of teams and invitations is strong evidence that those people are truly afraid.
"Da na, da na~" (Qingmu, when are we going out to level up again?)
Suddenly, Ivysaur walked up to Qingmu, looked up at him with its red pupils, and said...
Qingmu squatted down and said to Ivysaur with a smile, "It'll be soon. Once we've almost finished researching the second combination move, we can go get the eighth spirit ring."
During the battle, Qing Mu defeated the Demon Bear Douluo head-on, and the soul power feedback he received directly boosted his level from 78 to 79. Now he is only one step away from level 80.
Upon hearing Qingmu's words, Ivysaur's eyes lit up. Was it about to complete its second combo move?
"Qingmu, what kind of spirit beast are you planning to get for your eighth spirit ring?"
At this moment, within the Sea of Spirit, Ice Emperor heard Qing Mu mention the eighth spirit ring and asked with some curiosity.
Qingmu replied, "I haven't decided yet. Do you have any opinions?"
In fact, there is a Demon Eye Tree, the Ten Thousand Demon King, in the Star Dou Great Forest. It is not only a ferocious beast that has existed for 500,000 years, but also possesses the three attributes of ultimate wood, poison, and spirit, which are very compatible with Qing Mu's current state. However, there is someone behind it, and it is hiding in the Lake of Life and will not come out, so Qing Mu really cannot take it as a soul ring.
Seeing Qing Mu's question, Bing Di pondered for a moment before frowning and saying, "To be honest, I've never actually seen a wood-attribute ferocious beast before, but you already have me, and with your strength, your eighth spirit ring must be at least 100,000 years old."
To obtain a 100,000-year spirit ring, one must normally kill a spirit beast that is over 100,000 years old. Logically, as a spirit beast, Ice Emperor should be disgusted by Qing Mu's actions of hunting for spirit rings. However, in reality, Ice Emperor not only has no disgust, but is also giving Qing Mu advice.
Because the concept of the soul beast race is very broad, apart from the soul beasts of the far north, none of them can be considered members of the race by the Ice Emperor.
Even in the second stage of the Warring States period, without the call of Di Tian, the Lord of Soul Beasts, the Soul Beast race would not have been able to even launch a beast tide.
"If that's the case, then I do know of one 100,000-year-old soul beast with wood attribute."
Upon hearing this, Qing Mu pondered for a moment and immediately thought of that goal.
Hyotei's eyes lit up immediately, and she asked excitedly, "You know what kind of soul beast it is?"
"It's a mutated soul beast called Azure Bull Python, and it's currently in the Star Dou Great Forest," Qing Mu replied.
The Azure Bull Python possesses many attributes, including wood, lightning, water, and even time, making it a creature with a wide range of abilities.
After evolving into the Azure Dragon, it mastered even more attributes, not only the power of the Four Symbols, but also the power of the Law of Annihilation.
This is also why the Azure Bull Python can steadily suppress the Titan Giant Ape, which is said to be able to fight a hundred-thousand-year-old giant ape. Calling it a super soul beast is not an exaggeration at all.
