Chapter 86: Qian Daoliu Appears
After the battle ended, the group turned and walked toward the sect.
Ning Bei had a rough estimate of the combat strength of the two beasts.
Ah Bao had just reached the level of a Super Douluo. After using his berserk mode, his strength would increase significantly. With the Sky-Tearing Claw taught by Bear King, he could easily defeat anyone below level 96.
Er Ming's cultivation had reached level 96 after two years in the Dan Tower, and with his unparalleled defense and speed, he was nearly equal to Ah Bao . It would be difficult to determine a clear winner between the two beasts.
Of course, this was without the help of Ning Bei's large supply of battle-enhancing pills.
Ning Bei speculated that after taking his pills, with the exception of the Golden Crocodile from the Spirit Hall and the three peerless Douluos, most others could have a fair fight.
Even if they couldn't win, they could still trade injuries! Don't forget, Ning Bei had plenty of life-saving pills.
When the beasts go in for a round, even if he gets seriously injured and the opponent gets lightly hurt, it wouldn't matter. He could just pop some pills and be fully revived to continue the fight. Who could withstand that?
The next day, Ning Bei received a letter from Qian Renxue's people, urging him to come quickly.
The reason? The pills were running out.
After inquiring about the situation of Sword and Bone, he learned that they were still in seclusion. Even with the help of the Fuling Qing Dan, breaking through to a higher level still required some time.
Ning Bei quickly informed Ning Fengzhi and then headed towards Heaven Dou City.
He arrived at the Crown Prince's mansion and went straight to the study. As soon as he entered, Qian Renxue, disguised as Xue Qinghe, gave him an eye roll.
"Can you show some awareness? I've been waiting for you to cook the pot."
Ning Bei wasn't happy to hear that.
"Hey! You're the one who's really unaware, just how do you talk to the owner of the pills? Do you think I won't walk away?"
"You dare! If you leave, I'll tell my grandfather about what you did to me in the forest."
Ning Bei almost collapsed upon hearing this.
"Big sister, can we watch our words here? It sounds like I did something to you."
"Isn't that the case? Stop talking, hand it over."
Qian Renxue, feeling awkward about what happened in the forest, didn't continue the topic and instead stretched out her hand.
Ning Bei rolled his eyes and took several jade bottles from his soul tool.
"Really, you're lacking in any sense of being a future Angel God. You act more like a rogue."
Before Qian Renxue could retort, a dignified voice suddenly came from behind them.
"So it's you, the brat who's been filling Xue'er's head with those strange ideas?"
Both of them were startled and quickly looked towards the voice.
Seeing the figure, Qian Renxue's face lit up with joy. She immediately dropped her disguise and rushed over.
"Grandfather? Why are you here?"
An elder wearing a crown and golden clothes caught the figure rushing toward him and patted her back with a kindly smile.
Ning Bei immediately recognized the elder from Qian Renxue's address. It was Qian Daoliu, the former Pope of the Spirit Hall and one of the three peerless Douluos, the Sky Overlord.
"Seems like this old guy still doesn't believe that the Angel God has fallen. He's probably been waiting for me for a long time."
Thinking this, Ning Bei didn't hesitate and summoned the Reverse Scale of Di Tian, holding it in his palm, just in case.
The elder looked down at the woman in his arms, smiling as he spoke:
"Grandfather missed you. I came to check on you. Luckily, I arrived; otherwise, you would have been deceived by these petty people."
He then glanced coldly at Ning Bei, making him feel a great pressure.
Qian Renxue, hearing her grandfather's words, immediately remembered that Ning Bei was still there. She anxiously looked at Qian Daoliu.
"Grandfather, he's not a fraud."
"No need to say more. Whether he's a fraud or not, I'll deal with him, and I'll find out soon enough."
With that, he let go of Qian Renxue and walked towards Ning Bei.
Ning Bei muttered in his heart, "This old stubborn fool. Looks like I'll have to trouble Di Tian again. It's all about favors."
As for Ah Bao and the beasts, even with his pills, he didn't think they could stand up to Qian Daoliu. There was also the risk of revealing the scent of the pills.
Just as Ning Bei was about to inject soul power into his hand, a small figure suddenly opened her arms and stood in front of Qian Daoliu.
"Grandfather, don't make a move on him."
Qian Daoliu looked at the girl in front of him with a frown.
"Xue'er, don't make trouble. Step aside, I need to have a good talk with this brat who's making up lies."
Qian Renxue shook her head, biting her lip, unwilling to move an inch.
Seeing Qian Daoliu becoming impatient and about to forcefully push past her, the small angel grew anxious.
"Grandfather, he... he will be your son-in-law in the future. You can't do anything reckless. Otherwise, I'll..."
Her words started confidently but ended with stuttering.
Ning Bei and Qian Daoliu both stared at the little angel, speechless for a while, unable to respond.
Seeing the attention shift to her, Qian Renxue's face turned bright red. She then decided to give up on trying to explain.
"Ah, whatever. It's exactly like that. You deal with it, Grandfather."
She stomped her foot and turned around, ignoring the two men.
Ning Bei and Qian Daoliu exchanged glances, then Ning Bei gave an awkward smile, carefully testing the waters.
"Uh, Grandfather?"
Hearing Ning Bei's voice, Qian Renxue trembled slightly but didn't turn around to explain.
Qian Daoliu looked at Ning Bei with a complex gaze, unable to speak for a while.
Ning Bei: "Heh, heh!"
After a long moment, Qian Daoliu suddenly laughed and looked at Qian Renxue.
"Alright, Xue'er, Grandfather won't ask about this anymore. Come over here."
The little angel timidly turned around, her face still pink, full of confusion. "Grandfather, you're really not going to manage this? I haven't even thrown a tantrum yet?"
It seemed like Qian Daoliu could see the thoughts in his granddaughter's mind and smiled.
"Since I saw this brat enter, I've believed his words. The divine power on him can't be faked."
"Divine power?"
Ning Bei: "?????"
Qian Daoliu didn't explain what divine power meant. Instead, he continued:
"Since this brat has a divine being backing him, the things he says about the God Realm can pretty much be confirmed as true."
Qian Renxue, slowly recovering from her surprise, looked at her grandfather with confusion.
"Then why did you act like you were going to take him down just now?"
Qian Daoliu shook his head with a smile.
"If I hadn't acted that way, how would I have gotten you and this brat's relationship out of him? You little brat, you didn't even tell me about finding a son-in-law."
Hearing this, the little angel's face instantly turned red again.
"I... I..."
"Alright, no more explanations. I won't interfere with your matters. Since you're both heirs of divine beings, he's suitable for you. Since you like him, I can only wish you both happiness."
"Grandfather!"
Ning Bei, watching the grandfather-granddaughter duo, was full of questions. What's going on? Could someone please explain to me where my divine power came from? This is all so confusing.
