Chapter 14 Let my sister and Qian Renxue get engaged!
"Huh? Hahaha~~~"
Suddenly! Dugu Lin seemed to have figured something out and burst into laughter, completely unaware that Dugu Bo was still moved beside him.
"What's wrong?"
Dugu Bo quickly asked.
Dugu Lin laughed and said, "Grandpa, look, Qian Renxue is a woman, right?"
"Um."
"But other people don't know she's a woman, right?"
"Hmm, and then what?"
"Hehe~~ Grandpa, how about we get my sister and Qian Renxue engaged?"
"Pfft cough cough cough~" Dugu Bo choked on a mouthful of saliva and coughed repeatedly.
Dugu Lin excitedly explained to himself, "First of all, Grandpa, you are the Poison Douluo. Although you are the weakest among the Title Douluos, the only enemies you can fight are Title Douluos! Right?"
"Forehead...."
Dugu Bo quickly retracted his emotions. This bastard actually dared to say that he was the weakest among the Title Douluos? This bastard deserves a beating!
Dugu Lin continued, "Although Qian Renxue is the little princess of the Spirit Hall, unattainable! But her current status is just the eldest prince of an empire, the eldest prince of the Heaven Dou Empire, who doesn't even have a titled Douluo. She's not even the crown prince yet! If she wants to obtain the crown prince position through normal means, she will definitely extend an olive branch to us!"
And that was indeed the case. However, in the end, Qian Renxue did not seek out Dugu Bo, who was close to Prince Xue Xing, but instead used Ning Fengzhi as a tool to win him over.
Furthermore, Dugu Lin couldn't figure out why the two great empires didn't even have a single Title Douluo.
If forced to explain, Dugu Lin suspected that the Spirit Hall would assassinate any geniuses who emerged in either of the two great empires!
In the future, Bibi Dong dared to openly intercept and kill Tang San, which shows that the Spirit Hall had done similar things before.
Dugu Lin grinned widely and said, "By getting the Spirit Hall's little princess engaged to my sister, she can get your full support, which will help her quickly seize the position of Crown Prince! Then we'll suggest waiting until my sister reaches level 60 before we get married, just to delay the wedding! She also wants to delay the wedding because she can't possibly marry another woman! This move of ours has hit Qian Renxue right where it hurts; she can't possibly refuse!"
After a pause, Dugu Lin revealed a sly smile and said, "Then the engagement gifts... hehe... it's not unreasonable for us to ask for two top-grade ten-thousand-year soul bones, is it? And Yue Douluo's Immortal Herb Manual, isn't that just a piece of cake?"
"Hehehehe~~Grandpa, my idea is the perfect way to get something for free!"
Dugu Lin felt that this idea was absolutely brilliant, and that he was a true genius!
Dugu Bo was stunned, blinking his bewildered eyes. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that what this grandson said made sense!
Then... how about we make things difficult for Yan'er?
Immediately afterwards, Dugu Lin suddenly frowned and said, "Grandpa, there's another question. You said that Yu Tianheng of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan doesn't go to Thunder Academy or Blue Tyrant Academy, which is run by his aunt Liu Erlong. Why does he insist on coming to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy? Is his real purpose to go to school?"
Dugu Bo frowned deeply and pondered, "Lin'er, what do you mean? And who is Liu Erlong from Blue Tyrant Academy, her aunt?"
Dugu Lin first explained the relationship between Liu Erlong and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, then continued to speculate: "Is there a scheme by the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan involved in this? Is it to win over you, a Title Douluo?"
Dugu Bo frowned deeply. He had to think about this carefully, and the more he thought about it, the more likely it seemed!
The granddaughter of a titled Douluo is truly a treasure!
Throughout the entire Douluo Continent, Dugu Bo is the only unofficial Title Douluo. His granddaughter is absolutely a treasure!
"Phew~ It seems Yan'er really has to suffer a bit!" Dugu Bo narrowed his dangerous eyes. In order to put an end to everyone's thoughts, he had made up his mind to get his granddaughter engaged as soon as possible.
Night.
"What? You want me to get engaged to Qian Renxue?" Dugu Yan was stunned!
How come her brother and grandfather have already arranged her marriage after she's only been away from home for a day? And it's with another woman!
Dugu Bo gave Dugu Lin a wink, meaning: You explain.
"Ahem~~ Sister, here's what happened!"
"What kind?" Dugu Yan pouted, crossed her arms, and her little face was full of reluctance.
"Today I discussed many things with my grandfather. We believe that Yu Tianheng from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan was sent to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy by his family. Their purpose is to get close to you, gain your favor, and thus win over my grandfather, a titled Douluo."
"Ah?"
Dugu Yan's mouth dropped open, somewhat bewildered. Why are relationships between people so complicated? Can't there be more simplicity?
Dugu Lin continued to persuade, "Therefore, we believe that it is easier to dodge a spear in the open than to guard against an arrow in the dark. Why don't we have you get engaged to Qian Renxue, who is now the eldest prince of the Heaven Dou Empire, Xue Qinghe!"
"Firstly, it can make Qian Renxue bleed and give up some soul bones. She is the young master of the Spirit Hall and is very rich!"
"Secondly, it can also extinguish the hopes of those outsiders, preventing them from plotting against you."
"Thirdly... as long as you don't marry her before you turn 27, Qian Renxue's identity will be exposed, and the marriage will naturally be dissolved. In that case, we'll essentially make a huge profit without any investment!"
"There are so many benefits, sister!"
Dugu Lin tried his best to persuade her, but he never thought about exposing Qian Renxue's identity, or even helping her to seize the Heaven Dou Empire!
"I...I..." Dugu Yan blinked and pouted. The thought of getting engaged to a woman made her face turn red instantly. She twisted her fingers, too shy to speak.
Seeing this, Dugu Lin gave Dugu Bo a look, and the two grandfather and grandson smiled at each other.
The next few days.
Dugu Lin has been adapting to the growth of his own power.
At the same time, he also emphasized to Dugu Bo the enshrined figures of the Spirit Hall. There were so many enshrined figures, including Qian Daoliu, who was level 99; Golden Crocodile Douluo, who was level 98; Azure Luan Douluo, who was level 97; Mighty Lion Douluo, who was level 97; and seven others in total!
It emphasized the power of the Spirit Hall, maximizing the sense of crisis and the desire to curry favor with them.
On the morning of the fourth day.
Dugu Bo found Prince Xue Xing and received the highest level of hospitality, with tea and pastries served to him.
At this time, Qian Renxue had only been in the Heaven Dou Empire for about a year, had just replaced Xue Qinghe, had not yet killed the other princes, had not shown any close relationship with the Spirit Hall, and had not aroused the suspicion and dissatisfaction of Prince Xue Xing.
Therefore, after discussing with Dugu Lin, Dugu Bo decided to start the marriage proposal from Prince Xue Xing.
After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Dugu Bo spoke directly: "Your Highness, I have something to discuss with you today!"
"Oh? Your Majesty, please feel free to speak."
Prince Xue Xing put down his teacup, a smile on his face that betrayed no other emotion.
