“So, Ji’er!” Great-Grandfather Qian Wushuang ignored Qian Daoliu’s slight temper, “You’ve fathered two good children.”
“I see that the future of our Spirit Hall…” As he spoke, his gaze swept across Qian Daoliu, Qian Xunji, and the six major Priests.
He shook his head slightly and said, “Whether our Spirit Hall can take a step further from its current peak depends on this pair of siblings!”
Gold Crocodile Douluo, standing nearby, snapped back to his senses, a fanatical flame flickering in his old eyes.
“So that’s how it is, Senior Wushuang.
Since Xiao Heng’s Spirit has such a heaven-defying ability to resurrect the dead…”
“Doesn’t that mean as long as Xiao Heng is willing, he could walk through the Douluo Hall and bring those seniors…”
“He cannot!” Before Gold Crocodile Douluo could finish, he was ruthlessly interrupted by Great-Grandfather Qian Wushuang.
He shook his head helplessly, directly extinguishing everyone’s crazy idea of resurrecting super Douluo in batches.
At that time, he seemed to have had the same thought, even wanting to form an army of super Douluo.
“Although Xiao Heng’s Spirit ability is heaven-defying and can resurrect the dead, its limitations are also very significant.”
“The number he can resurrect is tied to his spirit power level.
In other words, even if he cultivates to become a Level 99 Peerless Douluo, he can only resurrect nine people at most!”
“Furthermore, the prerequisite for resurrection is that the skeletal remains must be complete.”
“If there were no restrictions on such an ability, our Spirit Hall could dominate the continent tomorrow!”
Hearing these two restrictions, although everyone felt slightly disappointed, they also found it reasonable.
The more powerful an ability, the greater its restrictions.
Even so, the strategic value of this Death Angel Spirit already far exceeded that of the Seraphim Spirit!
No matter how strong the Seraphim Spirit was, it only possessed the three attributes of Divinity, Light, and Fire.
It naturally suppressed evil Spirits, but it was still just a super soldier who was exceptionally good at fighting.
In contrast, what about the Death Angel Spirit?
Not only did it have the dual attributes of Death and Destruction, but it was also a literal resurrection coin!
Once Xiao Heng becomes a Titled Douluo, one person would represent the combat power of ten Titled Douluo.
It was terrifying to think about!
“Hiss—” Qian Xunji gasped, “Xiao Heng’s first Spirit is already so heaven-defying.”
“Then doesn’t his second Spirit, the Angel of Life, also have a similar terrifying ability?!”
Just as everyone was immersed in imagining a beautiful blueprint for the future, Qian Daoliu gave a cold snort.
“Such an important, top-secret matter capable of overturning the continent’s existing structure—these two little ancestors actually dared to hide it from all of us?!”
“And they even did it secretly on their own.
They’ve really been spoiled too much; they’re simply lawless!”
“If I catch them now, I’ll definitely give them a sound thrashing!”
Meanwhile, in a dark corner.
Qian Renheng, who was hiding there, ears pricked up to eavesdrop and watch the show, suddenly felt a chill down his spine.
Although he was too far away to hear exactly what they were saying.
His sharp intuition was frantically warning him.
“Something’s wrong, there’s killing intent!” Qian Renheng’s heart skipped a beat, thinking things were looking bad.
Of the thirty-six stratagems, fleeing is the best.
He made a decisive decision and grabbed Qian Renxue’s arm next to him.
“Xiao Xue, let’s go!
This old man is probably going to settle scores!”
The two siblings hunched over, their movements extremely practiced, like two guilty little cats.
They tried to slip away along the edge of the square.
However, playing hide-and-seek in front of this Level 99 Peerless Douluo?
It was like showing off one’s saber skills in front of Guan Gong!
They hadn’t even walked ten meters when Qian Daoliu landed lightly behind them like a ghost.
“You two little ancestors, where do you think you’re going for a stroll in the middle of the night instead of sleeping?!”
Without them realizing when, Qian Daoliu had already teleported behind them.
Like an eagle catching chicks, he picked up one in each hand.
It was so sudden that they didn’t even have room to struggle.
Qian Renheng, like a kitten being held by the scruff of its neck, twisted his head stiffly and met Qian Daoliu’s old face, which was as calm as an ancient well but radiating a bone-chilling coldness.
He could only manage a strained fake smile and said brightly, “Good morning, Grandpa?
Have you eaten?”
“What a coincidence.
I didn’t expect to run into you out for a walk so late.”
“Hahahaha, I was just saying, why is the moon so round today?
If there’s nothing else, my sister and I will go back to sleep first?”
“It is quite a coincidence!” Qian Daoliu’s face was solemn, looking like it could scrape off a few ounces of frost.
“You two are quite capable!”
“Sneaking out in the middle of the night to dig up your Great-Grandfather and resurrect him without even notifying me beforehand!”
“Causing such a big mess—what’s this?
Are your skins itching?
Do you want a beating?!
Tell me, how should I punish you!”
Seeing that disaster was about to befall the siblings, Qian Renxue very loyally shouted at the top of her lungs, “Wah—Great-Grandfather, help!
Murder!”
She used almost all her strength to send a distress signal to Great-Grandfather Qian Wushuang in the distance.
“Great-Grandfather!
Quickly, do something about Grandpa!”
“You wouldn’t want to see your most adorable and well-behaved great-grandchildren getting beaten right after you’ve been resurrected, would you!”
“Wooo—Great-Grandfather, please save Xiao Xue and Brother.
Xiao Xue doesn’t want to be beaten, wooo—”
Just as Qian Renxue finished speaking, Qian Daoliu felt a blur flash before his eyes, and then his hands were empty.
An utterly irresistible force had snatched the two people right out of the hands of this super Douluo.
“Hahahaha!
Naturally!”
Great-Grandfather Qian Wushuang laughed as he returned to his seat, continuing to enjoy the shoulder and back massage from the six major Priests.
His right arm was around Qian Renxue, who was pretending to wipe away tears, and his left arm was around Qian Renheng, who had just survived a disaster.
He was like a god descending to earth, rescuing them from a sea of fire, acting as their guardian deity!
“I, your Great-Grandfather, won’t just stand by and watch my dear grandchildren, who have performed such extraordinary service for our Spirit Hall, get beaten!”
Having finished protecting his own, Great-Grandfather Qian Wushuang instantly changed his face.
He had been a warm and kind old grandfather just a moment ago, but now, as he looked at Qian Daoliu standing there empty-handed and stunned, his tone carried a hint of threat.
“Qian Daoliu, what were you planning to do to my two great-grandchildren?”
Great-Grandfather Qian Wushuang narrowed his eyes and sneered repeatedly, “What’s this?
Was it not enough for you to bring six Priests and treat my old bones like a ball to be hit around?”
“Your temper has really grown, Qian Daoliu.
What, after hitting this old man, you want to hit this old man’s great-grandchildren as well?”
The massive labels of ‘betraying one’s ancestors’ and ‘child abuse’ fell straight from the sky and were firmly pinned on Qian Daoliu’s head.
“Father…
I…
I…” Qian Daoliu was left somewhat at a loss by Great-Grandfather Qian Wushuang’s unreasonable and meddlesome logic.
He immediately switched to a smiling face faster than one could flip a page and waved his hands repeatedly.
“How could I, Father?”
“What are you saying?
How would I, your son, dare to make you angry?
It’s just that these children shouldn’t be spoiled!”
“Didn’t you used to teach me the same way?
I’m doing this for their own good.”
“Think about it, if they hadn’t hidden it from me, we wouldn’t have started fighting as soon as we met.”
“Rules cannot be broken.
There must be appropriate punishment and education, otherwise, they will become lawless.” Qian Daoliu tried to save face by reasoning.
“Rules?
Punishment?” Heh, don’t you know that the older people get, the more unreasonable they become?
Great-Grandfather Qian Wushuang’s eyes widened.
“With me here, my rules are the rules!
Even if these two little ones committed a heavenly crime, it should be this old man who punishes them!”
“Who do you think you are?
Is there any room for a junior like you to speak here?
Shut up!”
