Chapter 167: Proposal
"Grandpa, I hope that in a short time, besides the six Priests of the Hall of Worship, you will not spread the Soul Core Condensation Method."
Wang Teng mentioned this, fearing that if Qian Daoliu were to spread it casually, there would definitely be many newly promoted Titled Douluo on the continent in the future.
The possibility of unexpected situations would then increase.
As for the remaining six Priests of the Hall of Worship, in the original work, they were all Qian Renxue's direct forces and loyal followers.
If they could condense a Soul Core, their spirit power level should be able to increase by one level.
For example, the 98th-level Gold Crocodile Douluo, if he could successfully condense a Soul Core, should be able to become a 99th-level super Douluo.
Among the Spirit Masters of Qian Daoliu's generation, Wang Teng estimated that Tang Chen had the best talent, followed by Poseidon, Qian Daoliu, and Gold Crocodile Douluo.
Tang Chen relied on his own efforts to cultivate to a 99th-level super Douluo, Poseidon and Qian Daoliu relied on divine trials, and Gold Crocodile Douluo also relied on his own efforts to become a 98th-level super Douluo.
If Golden Crocodile could also undergo a divine trial, becoming a 99th-level super Douluo should still be possible.
For Spirit Masters who have been stuck at a bottleneck for many years, as long as they condense a Soul Core, their spirit power level can basically break through the bottleneck. After all, they were originally just one step away from the next level.
"Okay, I won't spread it."
Qian Daoliu also nodded; good things should naturally be kept for oneself.
"If this Soul Core really has such an effect, after Xue'er takes control of Spirit Hall in the future, it might be possible to allow those Spirit Douluo stuck at the 89th-level bottleneck to become Titled Douluo."
In Qian Daoliu's view, the best time to promulgate this Soul Core Condensation Method within Spirit Hall was after Qian Renxue gained control of Spirit Hall.
At that time, the Spirit Masters who broke through to become Titled Douluo would definitely be devoted to Qian Renxue.
Subsequently, Wang Teng and Qian Renxue left the Hall of Worship and headed to the Supreme Pontiff Palace.
On the way to the Supreme Pontiff Palace.
"Xue'er, how about I propose to your mother later?"
"Ah~, isn't this too fast?"
Qian Renxue was startled.
"No! Now my father and mother, and your grandfather, have all agreed. Only your mother is left. Don't you want to be my fiancée?"
Wang Teng wanted to upgrade their relationship to that of an engaged couple.
"No~, no~"
Qian Renxue lowered her head and said softly.
"Alright then, I'll have Natya come over later. After all, this is a proposal, I can't go alone."
Actually, for a proposal, Wang Chengkun or Li Chan should come, but Wang Teng considered the terrible relationship between Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong, so he decided to have Natya come instead.
Having Natya act as the matchmaker, both in terms of status and strength, was considered giving Bibi Dong enough respect.
In an uninhabited area of Spirit City, Wang Teng opened a spatial passage and then summoned Natya.
"Natya, take this and come with me to propose."
Wang Teng thought for a moment and gave Natya the Ten-thousand Year Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Left Leg Bone from his inventory as an engagement gift.
At this time, Wang Teng's valuable items were the revival coin, the remaining Immortal Herbs, the Ten-thousand Year Soul Bone, and the Cosmic Soul. After a brief consideration, Wang Teng chose to use the Spirit Bone.
Speaking of which, a Ten-thousand Year Soul Bone as an engagement gift was not considered meager.
There was no prodigal son on the continent like Wang Teng, who would directly use a Ten-thousand Year Soul Bone as an engagement gift; at most, it would be a ten-thousand year Spirit Bone.
"Oh? City Lord, you're so young, and you already want to marry a wife?"
"Cough cough, Natya, just do as I say."
"Alright, but to whom are we proposing?"
"Xue'er's mother is Supreme Pontiff Bibi Dong."
"Oh? Xue'er's mother is also the current Supreme Pontiff? Then are the current Supreme Pontiff and the former Supreme Pontiff husband and wife?"
Natya only knew that Qian Renxue was the daughter of the former Supreme Pontiff Qian Xunji, but she didn't know that Qian Renxue was also Bibi Dong's daughter.
"Yes, but Xue'er and Bibi Dong don't have a good relationship. Later, you'll watch my expression and act accordingly."
"Mmm hmm, I'll listen to the City Lord."
Natya immediately patted her chest in assurance.
'??? Have I learned how to act according to expressions? Sigh, I'm so difficult!' Natya was a little puzzled.
Subsequently, the three walked towards the Supreme Pontiff Palace.
As expected, the three were stopped by the Guardian Knights in front of the Supreme Pontiff Palace.
"This is the Supreme Pontiff Palace. Without permission, entry is forbidden. Please retreat."
"Hmph~, what a grand display."
Qian Renxue was displeased, feeling that Bibi Dong, as the Supreme Pontiff, was putting on too many airs.
Listening to Qian Renxue's words, the Guardian Knights, who were about to apprehend the two, suddenly saw the Supreme Pontiff's Token in Qian Renxue's hand.
"Greetings, Supreme Pontiff."
Instantly, these Guardian Knights immediately bowed in unison.
"How about it? Can we go in now?"
"This~"
These guards were in a difficult position. Bibi Dong had previously instructed that no one could enter directly without her permission. Now, someone holding the Supreme Pontiff's Token, which represented the Supreme Pontiff, wanted to enter directly, which made him a bit troubled.
"Alright, we won't make things difficult for you. Go in and report, just say an old acquaintance from Heaven Dou City is visiting."
Wang Teng spoke.
"Yes!"
The Guardian Knight squad leader breathed a sigh of relief. Thankfully, there was a reasonable person in charge.
At this time, inside the Supreme Pontiff Palace, Bibi Dong was guiding Hu Liena in her cultivation.
"Report~"
"Come in."
Bibi Dong said indifferently.
"Supreme Pontiff, outside there is one male and two females, holding the Supreme Pontiff's Token, saying they are old acquaintances from Heaven Dou City visiting!"
"...Let them in!"
Instantly, Bibi Dong thought of Qian Renxue. If nothing unexpected, it should be her who had arrived.
After thinking for a moment, Bibi Dong decided to let Qian Renxue in. She wanted to see what kind of trick this was.
"Yes!"
Soon~
"Three distinguished guests, please come in!"
Subsequently, the two entered the Supreme Pontiff Palace.
"Eh? It's you?!"
Hu Liena, who was nearby, saw Wang Teng and Qian Renxue walk in and exclaimed.
Looking at Hu Liena, the three ignored her and turned their gaze to Bibi Dong.
"..."
Hu Liena once again felt ignored.
To be honest, Bibi Dong was indeed worthy of the position of Supreme Pontiff of Spirit Hall. After all, this mother-in-law had the aura of an Empress at first glance.
Wang Teng secretly nodded.
"Supreme Pontiff, aren't you going to let your dear disciple leave?"
Looking at Hu Liena, Qian Renxue felt it was best not to let her get involved, so she spoke.
"Nana, you go out first."
Bibi Dong nodded. Whatever Qian Renxue was going to say next had nothing to do with Hu Liena, and it was better for her not to know.
"Yes, Teacher!"
Although Hu Liena really wanted to know what kind of relationship these two had with her teacher, since her teacher had spoken, she could only leave first.
"You are War Spirit Douluo? May I ask why you have come to my Spirit Hall?"
Bibi Dong had seen a portrait of War Spirit Douluo Natya and naturally recognized her.
"Supreme Pontiff, I represent Sky City to propose on behalf of my City Lord!"
"??? Sky City? Propose?"
"That's right, I am from Sky City, and this is my City Lord."
Natya pointed to Wang Teng, who was standing beside Qian Renxue.
Bibi Dong then finally turned her gaze to Wang Teng, whom she had previously overlooked.
'??? 80th-level Quasi-Spirit Douluo?'
This was astounding. Seeing Wang Teng's young age, his spirit power level was as high as 80. How did he cultivate? What brand of feed did he eat?
"Greetings, Supreme Pontiff. My name is Wang Teng. I hope you can agree to Qian Renxue and me being together."
"Heh~, you two came from the Hall of Worship, didn't you? Since that old fellow Qian Daoliu has agreed, does my opinion still matter?"
Bibi Dong said indifferently.
She could tell with her toes that Qian Renxue and Wang Teng must have seen Qian Daoliu today. The fact that Wang Teng could still stand before her meant that Qian Daoliu must have agreed.
"This is different. Grandpa's blessing and Mother's blessing are not the same. I hope that both Xue'er and I can receive your blessing. This visit, I came specifically to propose."
Wang Teng looked at Natya.
"Supreme Pontiff, this is a Ten-thousand Year Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Left Leg Bone, serving as the betrothal gift from my Sky City."
Saying this, Natya took out an exquisite box.
Then Natya channeled her spirit power to guide the Spirit Bone to Bibi Dong's eyes.
Listening to Natya's words, Bibi Dong looked at the Spirit Bone flying before her eyes. She hadn't expected Wang Teng to be so generous, directly offering a Ten-thousand Year Soul Bone.
One must know that even the inherited Spirit Bones of major forces are not as old as a Ten-thousand Year Soul Bone. It is absolutely a priceless treasure in the Spirit Master's world.
Even the most common thousand-year Spirit Bone would cost at least several million gold coins at an auction.
If it were a Ten-thousand Year Soul Bone, it would certainly be an astronomical price. Of course, the value of a Ten-thousand Year Soul Bone simply cannot be measured in gold coins.
Looking at Wang Teng and Qian Renxue, Bibi Dong remembered when she and Yu Xiaogang were deeply in love, as if it were just yesterday.
'If that old fellow Yu Yuanzhen had been like the current War Spirit Douluo back then, coming to Spirit Hall to propose, perhaps things wouldn't be like this now, right?'
Unconsciously, this thought flashed through Bibi Dong's mind.
Unbeknownst to her, her daughter Qian Renxue had grown so much, already reaching the age for marriage.
Suddenly, the image of Qian Renxue in her eyes overlapped with that demon Qian Xunji, and Bibi Dong's heart was filled with pain.
'I, Bibi Dong, will absolutely, absolutely never forget the humiliation you brought upon me!'
Instantly, Bibi Dong put on an indifferent expression.
"Since Qian Daoliu has agreed, why come and ask me? As for the Spirit Bone, take it back. I don't need it."
"You~!"
Qian Renxue immediately became displeased. She was speaking nicely to her, yet she was so disrespectful? She was about to say something.
"Cough cough, Xue'er, I'll handle it."
Wang Teng stopped Qian Renxue.
"Supreme Pontiff, I come with sincerity. If you have any dissatisfaction, you can bring it up. My Sky City will certainly fulfill it. I only hope that you can give us a sincere blessing!"
