After listening to Dugu Bo's words, Chen Qingling thought for a moment.
What he said did make sense!
She was only using an extreme attribute. As long as she didn't overdo it, it shouldn't be enough to seriously injure Dugu Bo.
After all, he was still a Titled Douluo!
No matter how weak, it shouldn't be that bad, right!
Little did she know—Dugu Bo was actually the weakest among the Titled Douluo.
"Alright," Chen Qingling agreed readily.
Immediately after, the two pulled apart to create some distance. "Senior Poison, be careful."
"Come at me as you please!"
"Alright!"
Chen Qingling formed a miniature Fire Rasengan in one hand and lightly pushed it out.
Whoosh!
The Fire Rasengan shot forward. In that instant—
Dugu Bo sensed danger and instantly activated his Martial Soul True Body, sweeping his tail horizontally.
Boom!
"Ah!"
A scorching burning sensation surged from his tail. Large patches of scales were directly burned away—he was nearly roasted alive.
"Senior Poison, are you alright?!" Chen Qingling cried out in alarm.
She never expected that a casual strike of extreme fire would injure Dugu Bo.
She had overestimated Dugu Bo's strength…
Ah—no, she had underestimated the power of extreme attributes!
She handled the social niceties perfectly.
At this moment, Dugu Bo was drenched in cold sweat.
He also hadn't expected the extreme fire to be this terrifying.
Thinking it over, he soon felt relieved.
Qingling possessed an extremely rare extreme attribute on the continent—how could it not be powerful?
In fact, what she wielded wasn't just an ordinary extreme attribute.
It was the extreme of extremes!
It was the lifetime power of the Ice and Fire Dragon Kings—a force approaching the level of gods.
How could a mere Titled Douluo withstand that?
Coming back to his senses, Dugu Bo let out a long sigh."Ah… I can't compare to you, Qingling."
"The younger generation is truly formidable! Truly formidable!" Dugu Bo exclaimed with deep emotion.
At the same time, he felt extremely fortunate that his granddaughter's relationship with Qingling was fairly good—at least they weren't strangers.
"Don't, don't, don't—Senior Poison, you're joking," Qingling said quickly.
Dugu Bo shook his head helplessly."Ah… if only I could be like you, Qingling. I really want to improve."
For a moment, the atmosphere grew strange, with no one breaking the silence first.
After a while, Qingling felt it was about time and lightly coughed."Senior Poison, Zhuqing, it's getting late. Let's set off for Heaven Dou Imperial City."
Having settled the matter with Dugu Bo, Qingling hadn't forgotten her original purpose.
She was taking Zhu Zhuqing back to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
As for Tang San and his group?
Chen Qingling thought it through like this:
Tang San and the others would definitely guess that she would deliberately seek them out, so they would surely hide far away.
Searching aimlessly would only waste time.
Qingling believed she would meet Tang San and the others again.
When that time came, she would understand them better!
"Alright!"
"I'll listen to you, Qingling."
Immediately, Chen Qingling and her group set off toward Heaven Dou Imperial City.
A few hours later.
At the city gates, the guards saw that the arrivals were Dugu Bo, Chen Qingling, and Zhu Zhuqing.
They didn't even require an entry fee and let them pass directly.
At the same time, news of Chen Qingling's return spread throughout Heaven Dou Imperial City.
From one to ten, from ten to a hundred—within the blink of an eye, the entire city knew.
"Shocking news! The prodigy of the Soul Master world, Chen Qingling, has returned!"
"It's been so long—what level do you think Chen Qingling is at now?"
"Isn't it obvious? Probably a Soul Emperor by now!"
"What?! Soul Emperor? That's a bit too exaggerated, isn't it?!"
...
Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect
Discussion Hall.
Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, and Gu Rong sat in their respective seats, chatting leisurely.
"Qingling has returned."
"Rongrong has no idea how many times she's mentioned Qingling."
"Yeah. The very day Qingling left, Rongrong started shouting about her."
"Honestly, this is way too dependent, isn't it?"
"Fengzhi, aren't you going to do something about it?"
Ning Fengzhi instantly felt a headache coming on."Well… it doesn't seem like a big deal, does it?"
Chen Xin rolled his eyes."Fengzhi, your heart is really big. Aren't you afraid she'll be led astray?"
Hearing this, Ning Fengzhi couldn't help but smile."Led astray? Qingling is one of our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's own people, after all."
"Where's the logic of one of our own abducting another of our own?"
Chen Xin was left speechless.
Haven't you noticed that your daughter's elbow has already bent severely outward?
If you don't intervene, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is really going to bloom with lilies everywhere.
...
Heaven Dou Imperial City
As Chen Qingling and her group walked along the main street, they ran into the hurriedly arriving Crown Prince, Xue Qinghe.
Oh—no.
It should be Qian Renxue.
"Long time no see, Sister Qingling. Would you be willing to come to Moon Pavilion to reminisce privately?"
Upon receiving the news, Qian Renxue rushed over immediately to see Qingling in person.
At a glance, it was clear she hadn't come without purpose.
Zhu Zhuqing frowned slightly, her gaze fixed on Qian Renxue.
In her eyes, Qian Renxue was a man. Dragging Qingling to Moon Pavilion was one thing—but insisting on reminiscing alone?!
There was definitely something fishy here!
Something very fishy!
A sense of crisis arose in Zhu Zhuqing's heart!
Could this person be interested in Qingling?!
No!
Absolutely not!
Zhu Zhuqing looked at Chen Qingling and shook her head at her, signaling her not to go.
Qingling simply smiled without speaking, giving Zhuqing a reassuring look.
"Sure. I haven't reminisced with Brother Qinghe in a long time. I can also visit Sister Yuehua while I'm at Moon Pavilion."
"Qingling…" Zhu Zhuqing hesitated.
"Zhuqing, don't worry. Go to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect—I'll be back very soon."
Although she didn't know what scheme Qian Renxue was plotting, Qingling trusted her instinctively and wasn't afraid of her harming her.
If Qian Renxue truly wanted to harm her, she'd had many chances already—but she never did.
So Qian Renxue was someone Qingling felt she could deal with—not an enemy.
Temporarily parting ways with Zhu Zhuqing, Chen Qingling and Qian Renxue arrived at Moon Pavilion.
Looking at the unchanged exterior of Moon Pavilion, Chen Qingling felt a wave of emotion.
Once upon a time, when she first came here, she had been deeply shocked.
But now, she felt nothing.
Things had changed.
If Qingling remembered correctly, the owner of Moon Pavilion was Tang Yuehua.
There weren't many people with the surname Tang on the continent—perhaps she was from the Clear Sky Sect.
But Qingling didn't care at all, simply because Tang Yuehua treated her well!
She wouldn't treat Tang Yuehua poorly just because of her background.
One cannot choose one's birth. As long as the person was good, Qingling didn't care where they came from.
Even if it was the Clear Sky Sect—an organization she had grievances with.
In Qingling's eyes, the Clear Sky Sect was the Clear Sky Sect, and Tang Yuehua was Tang Yuehua. They could not be lumped together.
The same went for others of the Clear Sky Sect—so long as they weren't enemies like Tang Hao or Tang San.
Everything could be discussed.
"Sister Qingling, please."
Entering the private room reserved for Crown Prince Xue Qinghe, Qian Renxue dismissed all outsiders.
"I wonder, Brother Qinghe, why you asked to see me?"
Qian Renxue looked at Chen Qingling with a half-smile, her intentions unreadable.
"Sister Qingling… I've thought about this for a long time. I struggled internally quite a bit… and in the end, I still didn't want to lie to you."
"Lie to me?"
