Early the next morning, in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Hotel, the soft sunlight gently spilled into the luxurious hotel room.
Yunxiao, who had already gotten up and finished his morning routine, immediately noticed Qian Renxue sitting at the desk in the room, writing something with great enthusiasm.
"Hmm, what is Xiao Xue writing?"
Curious, Yunxiao walked straight over to Qian Renxue.
Standing beside her, he glanced at the letter she was writing and raised an eyebrow slightly.
The first thing that caught Yunxiao's eye was his own personal information, and the recipient was none other than Qian Renxue's grandfather, Qian Daoliu, the 99th-level Peerless Douluo.
"Xiao Xue, are you planning to tell your grandfather about our relationship directly?"
Given the relationship between him and Qian Renxue, Yunxiao didn't find it inappropriate to refer to Qian Daoliu as "grandfather."
"Yes, that's exactly what I plan to do."
"Besides, even if I wanted to hide it, I couldn't."
"After all, your status as a Titled Douluo with eight black and one red Soul Rings has already spread throughout Suotuo City."
Hearing Yunxiao call Qian Daoliu "grandfather" made Qian Renxue's heart flutter with sweetness, and her cheeks flushed slightly.
"Ah... that's true..."
Thinking about the commotion he had caused at the Great Spirit Arena in Suotuo City the day before, Yunxiao nodded awkwardly.
Yesterday, to vent Qian Renxue's anger, he had deliberately activated his Martial Soul True Form and directly upped the pressure on Yu Tianheng.
While other major forces might take some time to receive information about him, the entire Suotuo City was already abuzz.
From the nobility to the commoners in the streets, everyone knew that the Elf Douluo, with his eight black and one red Soul Rings, had made a powerful and dramatic appearance at the Great Spirit Arena.
He had even thoroughly taught a lesson to Yu Tianheng, one of the Twin Stars of the inherently evil Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
Yunxiao estimated that it wouldn't be long before his title as the Elf Douluo would become famous across the entire Douluo Continent.
"Oh, by the way, Yunxiao."
"Would you like to find some time to visit Martial Soul City and meet my grandfather?"
After saying this, Qian Renxue leaned back slightly, resting her body in Yunxiao's embrace.
"Visit Martial Soul City..."
As he gently stroked Qian Renxue's golden hair, Yunxiao murmured softly, as if thinking of something, before slowly speaking.
"Xiao Xue, regarding your suggestion, let's hold off for now."
"I've attracted too much attention from various forces. If I go to Martial Soul City rashly now, it might bring you unnecessary trouble."
At this point, everyone in the Heaven Dou Royal Team knew that the Elf Douluo was quite close to the Crown Prince, "Xue Qinghe."
If he were to suddenly visit Martial Soul City, it would inevitably make Emperor Xue Ye and Ning Fengzhi, those two old foxes, speculate about things that might not even exist.
"Alright, I'll listen to you."
After hearing Yunxiao's words, Qian Renxue nodded slightly.
This period was indeed quite sensitive.
After quickly finishing the letter, Qian Renxue instructed Porcupinefish Douluo to deliver it to the Hall of Elders in Martial Soul City.
Then, after freshening up, she and Yunxiao left the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Hotel room together.
While Yunxiao and Qian Renxue were strolling through Suotuo City...
On the other side, in the dean's office at Shrek Academy.
Having just arrived in Suotuo City from Notting City, Yu Xiaogang successfully made his way to Shrek Academy.
"Flender, what did you say???"
Upon hearing that Ma Hongjun was not only Flender's disciple but had also offended a Titled Douluo with an eight black and one red Soul Ring configuration, Yu Xiaogang's face was filled with shock.
Wait, buddy, I just rushed here from Notting City to Shrek Academy.
And now you're telling me you've offended a Titled Douluo with an eight black and one red Soul Ring configuration?
I'm already dealing with early morning classes...
"Ahem, Xiaogang, keep your voice down!"
Seeing Yu Xiaogang's exasperation, Flender awkwardly coughed a few times, quickly stepped forward, and covered Yu Xiaogang's mouth, which was spewing curses and endless complaints, while cautiously glancing around.
After a while, Yu Xiaogang managed to pry Flender's hand away and snorted in annoyance.
"Hmph, Flender, look at the fine disciple you've raised..."
With that, Yu Xiaogang plopped down on a chair and began to scold Flender.
"Ah, Xiaogang, don't worry."
"It's been a few days since Hongjun's incident, and we haven't seen the Thunder Douluo come to Shrek Academy to pursue the matter."
"Right now, the most important thing is to ask if you have any way to help with Hongjun's injuries."
"Even if we can't restore his Martial Soul and Soul Power, we at least need to find a way to heal his severed... um, parts and tongue."
Thinking of Ma Hongjun's condition, Flender felt a pang of heartache.
After all, he had raised the child for six years. To say Flender had no feelings for Ma Hongjun would be a lie.
As someone who came from a humble background, Flender naturally couldn't think of any way to solve such a thorny problem.
Although Flender was at a loss, that didn't mean his good friend Yu Xiaogang was also helpless.
After all, Flender knew Yu Xiaogang's true identity.
Yu Xiaogang was not only a direct disciple of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, one of the Upper Three Sects, but he was also the son of the Thunder Douluo.
Thinking of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Flender also recalled Yu Tianheng, whom the Thunder Douluo had once called "naturally evil."
Hearing Flender, a seven-ring Soul Saint, praise him, Yu Xiaogang's vanity was greatly satisfied.
"If you want to restore Ma Hongjun's severed parts and tongue, the only option is to seek out the Nine Hearted Begonia Ye Family."
"The Nine Hearted Begonia Ye Family?"
Flender was momentarily stunned, looking at Yu Xiaogang with confusion.
The Ye Family, known for their extreme discretion and the fact that only two Nine Hearted Begonia Spirit possessors could exist at the same time, was something Flender truly didn't understand.
"That's right, the Nine Hearted Begonia Ye Family."
Speaking of the Nine Hearted Begonia Ye Family, Yu Xiaogang secretly felt relieved that Ning Rongrong from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan had introduced them to Tang San.
Seeing Flender's puzzled expression, Yu Xiaogang slowly began to explain the details of the Nine Hearted Begonia Ye Family.
After listening to Yu Xiaogang's explanation, Flender's eyes lit up.
The possessors of the Nine Hearted Begonia Spirit could revive the dead and regenerate flesh.
"Hmph, Flender, even if the Nine Hearted Begonia Ye Family can heal Ma Hongjun, do you have enough Gold Soul Coins?"
"You should know that hiring a Soul Douluo-level Nine Heart Begonia Spirit possessor for treatment would cost enough to bankrupt our Shrek Academy, and we might even end up with a massive debt."
Seeing that Flender was still considering spending a fortune to treat Ma Hongjun, Yu Xiaogang immediately showed a displeased expression on his face.
What was the point of treating a Ma Hongjun who had no Martial Soul or Soul Power?
Even if he were cured, Ma Hongjun would still be a useless person without a Martial Soul or Soul Power.
Rather than wasting so many Gold Soul Coins, it would be better to use them to purchase some precious herbs for his disciple, Tang San, to aid in his cultivation.
