"Golden Crown, have you thought this through clearly? Soul Ring conflict is no small matter."
"This emperor takes pity and cannot bear to see a genius like you meet with an accident. That is why I have come here to take you as my disciple. If you agree, not only can I help you solve this problem, but I will also devote all the Spirit Hall's resources to nurture you," Bibi Dong said with a serious expression, using both threats and inducements.
If other twin-Martial Soul Soul Masters heard these words, they might immediately and without hesitation bow to Bibi Dong as their master.
Unfortunately, Golden Crown was a transmigrator. Knowing the plot well, he naturally knew about Bibi Dong's so-called experience in solving the Soul Ring conflict for twin spirits.
Not to mention, he had just bound with a system moments ago.
To become Bibi Dong's disciple for such a minor problem would be purely looking for trouble.
He first patted Qian Renxue's hand, signaling her not to worry, and then said, "I've thought it through clearly. My affairs do not require Your Holiness the Supreme Pontiff's concern."
"Fine! I hope you won't regret today's decision." Bibi Dong then turned her gaze to Qian Renxue: "I advise you to keep your distance from him, because soon you will..."
"My affairs are none of your business!" Qian Renxue said loudly.
Bibi Dong's face darkened completely.
With a cold snort, she left, accompanied by the two Douluos, Ju and Gui.
Returning to the Supreme Pontiff Palace, Bibi Dong flipped a table over onto the floor: "That damn brat, does he really think awakening a divine-level Martial Soul makes him invincible? I want to see how you plan to solve the Soul Ring conflict problem without my help!"
...After the awakening ceremony concluded, Golden Crown and Jin E returned to the manor.
Jin E looked at Golden Crown with a complicated expression and said, "Xiao Mian, your decision today was too rash."
"I've always looked down on Bibi Dong because that woman is insane, but I have to admit that regarding the twin-Soul Ring conflict problem, she is currently the only one who has succeeded."
Seeing the old master still worried about his twin-Martial Soul issue, Golden Crown smiled and said, "Don't worry, Grandfather. I have my own plans."
Bibi Dong's method for solving the twin-Soul Ring conflict was nothing more than first using heavenly treasures to strengthen her physique, focusing on raising her first Martial Soul to the Titled Douluo level before absorbing Soul Rings for her second Martial Soul.
However, this method still carried certain risks. A crucial factor in Bibi Dong's success was that her two Martial Souls, the Death Spider Emperor and the Soul Eating Spider Emperor, both belonged to the spider-type Martial Souls, and the Soul Rings she absorbed were of the same type, which greatly reduced the risk.
But if it were applied to himself, that might not be the case, as the Golden Crocodile King and Miris were completely unrelated.
Jin E knew well that his grandson had always been very independent since childhood, so he didn't press further: "Alright then. Since you have plans, grandson, I won't say anything more. But if any situation arises in the future, tell your grandfather immediately."
"By the way, which Martial Soul do you plan to cultivate first?"
Golden Crown didn't hesitate and gave his answer directly: "The Golden Crocodile King!"
Just kidding. Miris was a divine-level Martial Soul, so of course he would cultivate it only after reaching the Titled Douluo level.
Cultivating it now would be a complete waste.
Hearing this, Jin E nodded, feeling very gratified.
His grandson hadn't lost his head just because his second Martial Soul was divine-level.
"Good! Xiao Mian, rest well tonight. Tomorrow, your grandfather will take you to hunt for Soul Rings."
Golden Crown quickly waved his hand: "The Soul Ring matter isn't urgent. I plan to cultivate for a month first and then go hunt for Soul Rings after the month is over."
Jin E quickly guessed Golden Crown's intention. He had indeed been a bit too hasty and momentarily forgot that Golden Crown had awakened a divine-level Martial Soul.
His physical strength must far surpass that of ordinary people. If he trained properly, his first Soul Ring would definitely be able to exceed the limit.
Golden Crown then took out a piece of paper he had written earlier and handed it to Jin E: "Grandfather, this is the training plan I formulated myself. Please, along with the other Elder Protectors, strictly supervise my cultivation according to the contents of this training plan for the next month."
"Also, please help me prepare some of the equipment listed on it."
Jin E scanned the contents on the paper and said, "Don't worry, leave this matter to your grandfather."
...On the training ground, one week later.
Golden Crown was seen sprinting rapidly ahead, while the Demon Subduing Douluo followed effortlessly behind, swinging his Coiling Dragon Rod.
"Xiao Mian, why are you slowing down? My Coiling Dragon Rod is about to touch your butt."
After saying that, he swung his right hand, striking Golden Crown's butt with the rod.
This made Golden Crown jump up in pain, clutching his butt, and he quickly sped up, turning his head to say, "Demon Subduing old geezer, you're abusing your power for personal revenge! Believe it or not, I'll throw your Coiling Dragon Rod into the latrine pit."
Ever since asking his grandfather Jin E and the other Elder Protectors to strictly supervise his training, Golden Crown had been suffering terribly these past few days.
Every day, he was either getting beaten up or on his way to get beaten up.
Indeed, upon hearing Golden Crown's words, Demon Subduing gave a mischievous laugh: "Very good, it seems Xiao Mian you're very motivated. Let your Grandpa Demon Subduing turn up the intensity for you."
After saying that, he hurled the Coiling Dragon Rod in his hand.
The Coiling Dragon Rod spun rapidly, flying swiftly towards Golden Crown's butt.
"Holy crap!" Golden Crown, seeing this, sped up once again.
At this moment, he wished he had a few more legs.
Although he knew the Demon Subduing Douluo had restraint, that Coiling Dragon Rod really hurt when it hit.
Soon, a day of torment ended.
Golden Crown, rubbing his nearly blooming butt, returned to the small courtyard.
No sooner had he entered than he saw Qian Renxue sitting alone on a swing, staring blankly at the ground with vacant eyes, clearly in a bad mood.
"Little Snow, are you okay?"
Golden Crown approached and waved his hand in front of her eyes, thinking to himself that it must be that old woman Bibi Dong who had made Little Snow unhappy.
Hearing Golden Crown's voice, Qian Renxue snapped out of her daze and quickly put on a smile: "You're back. You must be very tired after cultivating all day?"
"Not tired. My physical fitness is terrifyingly strong. The little intensity my grandfather and the others set is nothing to worry about."
Saying this, Golden Crown sat down on the swing beside her.
As soon as his butt touched the wooden plank, he jumped up in pain.
Seeing this, Qian Renxue took out a bottle of medicine: "Stop being stubborn. This is a high-quality wound medicine prepared by my grandfather. Take off your pants, I'll apply it for you."
"!"
"No need, I can do this myself," Golden Crown said, blushing.
Although he had lived two lifetimes, having a girl apply medicine for him, and having to take off his pants, still made him a bit embarrassed.
Seeing Golden Crown embarrassed in front of her for the first time, Qian Renxue couldn't help but feel a bit happy inside: "You're getting shy in front of me? It's not like I haven't seen it before."
Saying this, she forcibly pulled Golden Crown into the room.
A few minutes later.
Golden Crown walked out of the room with a red face, while Qian Renxue covered her mouth with a light laugh, though upon closer look, her face was also slightly flushed.
The two returned to the swing and sat quietly like that.
After a long while.
Qian Renxue, looking at the setting sun, spoke up: "Golden Crown, if one day I leave your side for a very, very long time, would you still forget me?"
