--- Chapter 187 ---
As Han Yuan left the Cave of Truth with others, his token communicator rang loudly.
Han Yuan accepted the call promptly, seeing that it was Qian Renxue who called him.
"God, yes, finally! You finally answered my call for Angel God's sake!" Qian Renxue's excited voice comes from the token. "Where have you been in the last 45 days? You didn't answer my call at all!"
"Xiao Yuan, this is unfair!"
"You promised to teach me at least twice a month! And it's already the second month!"
Han Yue, Ah Yin, and Liu Erlong raised their eyebrows. They stared at the token communicator unkindly before casting a deadpan look toward Han Yuan.
"Xiao Yuan, who might this girl be? Her voice is beautiful, so she must be quite a looker, right?" asked Han Yue sweetly. Even then, her aura is the polar opposite.
"Yes, Mom is very curious, Xiao Yuan." Ah Yin added pleasantly. Her eyes gleamed with dark light.
"Hoho, you actually have a side girl that we didn't know? Even with all of us, you have time to spare with a new one, huh? As expected of you, little scumbag!" Liu Erlong laughed not-so-friendily. She crossed her arms as if she were a clingy, jealous wife.
Han Yuan broke into a cold sweat, cursing Qian Renxue at the back of his mind. It's not that he didn't plan to tell them about Qian Renxue, but he forgot!
Yes, after returning from the White Dragon River that day, and waiting for Thirteen to make Elemental Plane, Han Yuan secluded himself to perfect his second spiritual sea and fully evolve it into the Spiritual World.
Then, he entered the Elemental Plane to research "Elemental Bonding," and the rest is history.
In fact, Han Yuan planned to tell about Qian Renxue right after this, but this angel girl's timing is simply too fucking immaculate.
Han Yuan ran his fingers through his hair and glanced at Thirteen before sighing, "It's Thirteen's fault."
"???" Thirteen.
'What the hell?'
'What's my fault?'
Han Yuan made a proper excuse on the spot, "Thirteen knew about a relationship between me and this girl. As you know, I was in seclusion, so I didn't have the time to tell you guys, and I thought Thirteen would tell you..."
"But looking at your reaction, Thirteen obviously didn't tell you guys."
"Well, better late than never." Han Yuan smiled helplessly.
"The girl's name is Qian Renxue. She's the daughter of the late Spirit Hall's Pope, Qian Xunji, and the inheritor of unorthodox Spirit Hall."
"About two months ago, I met her after the Dao Meeting and agreed to teach her after she gave me a secret art of Thunder God."
"To my surprise, when we met again, we encountered Yating and had to fight her for a while. Then, Thirteen revealed that she's the Son of Plane and I am the Son of Destiny."
"I haven't met her ever since, and you heard her urgency."
'What the fuck?' Thirteen was dumbfounded. 'You can't tell confidential information like that so randomly?!'
'ALSO, DID YOU JUST DRAG ME TO YOUR FUCKING PROBLEM AND THEN THROW ME UNDER THE BUS!'
'SHAME ON YOU! SHAME ON YOUR DIGNITY! SHAME ON YOUR COW!'
At this moment, Thirteen felt chill in its imaginary spine. It slowly glanced at three women and gulped nervously because their gazes weren't very kind.
"I see..." Han Yue is no longer mad. "Since it wasn't Xiao Yuan's fault, and then it's understandable, though Thirteen, I hope you can be more... Informative."
Ah Yin nodded and tenderly smiled at her beloved son. "Mm, a new girl who's close to Xiao Yuan is important information to us."
"Qian Renxue, Seraphim, so the Spirit Hall finally has their eyes on Xiao Yuan's body. Hmph, I won't let their dirty hands sully his innocence." Liu Erlong shamelessly declared, though she was the clingiest on the bed.
The newborn plane's consciousness was on the verge of crying upon hearing all this.
'SON OF DESTINY, YOU JERK!'
'You're not the Son of Destiny! You're the son of GODDAMN DEVIL!'
'Scumbag, Pervert, Playboy!'
'I have no mouth, but I want to cry... Huhu.' Thirteen criticized Han Yuan inwardly. 'Noooo! My innocent image is forever ruined.'
Despite the frustration, Thirteen kept its mouth shut. After all, the plane's consciousness was to assist the Son of Plane and Son of Destiny on their endeavor.
Even if IT WAS a Scumbag Endeavor.
For Douluo Planet's sake!
Han Yuan sighed in relief and thanked Thirteen from the deepest part of his heart, 'I owe you one, Thirteen.'
'Fuck you!' Thirteen saw Han Yuan's very kind gaze and cursed even more inside.
After the clearing of the misunderstanding, Han Yuan resumed the call and asked why Qian Renxue had called him all of a sudden.
Qian Renxue cleared her throat and replied, "Ehem, My mo-! I mean, the Pope handed me the compensation she left behind for you."
"I was planning to give it to you myself, but you locked yourself in the Dao Academy."
Han Yuan was stunned, recalling his odd conversation with Bibi Dong, and couldn't help but say, "You didn't plan to send yourself as a gift, right?"
Qian Renxue was equally stunned as she understood what Han Yuan was talking about and blushed hard on her king-sized bed. "Wu-! Wh-What are you talking about! Stop joking around, I'm talking about the 100,000-year-old spirit bone!"
"Oh..." Han Yuan immediately became disappointed.
Well, he could only blame himself for having a rich imagination, with Qian Renxue tying herself like a Christmas present, for example. Hmm, white tender skin wrapped in red ribbons.
Not to mention, red ribbons matched golden hair quite well.
An ELITE Combination!
"Y-You..." Qian Renxue obviously heard the disappointment in Han Yuan's voice and blushed even harder. She tossed and kicked a pillow in shame because this guy must have a rich imagination of her, though the thought of it wasn't that bad.
'Ah, what am I even thinking!' Qian Renxue slammed her head against the wall a few times. 'GET YOURSELF TOGETHER, RENXUE!'
Han Yuan yawned, "Well, the spirit bone is fine."
"You can send someone over to Dao Academy at noon."
"I'm going to have lunch first."
"No, I will come there myself!" Qian Renxue suddenly said before ending the call.
"..." Han Yuan stared at the token communicator blankly.
'This girl. She didn't really plan to use herself as compensation for her mother, right?'
'According to Thirteen, Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue have reconciled as mother and daughter.'
'The combo of Raksasha God and Angel God is at least Godking-level in potential, which means my plan is about to come to fruition.'
Han Yue hugged Han Yuan's arm and said, "Okay, let's have lunch together first. That girl can wait."
"True, I'm sure you're hungry after all that training." Ah Yin added with a motherly smile.
"Uh, well, I will just join in." Liu Erlong gave Han Yue and Ah Yin a helpless look. Damned tyrants!
Then, they left the Cave of Truth under Thirteen's resentful look.
...
...
Han Yuan had lunch with Han Yue, Ah Yin, and Liu Erlong. The moon sister and Mama Grass somehow have a competitive streak as they try to outdo each other in culinary skills.
Of course, the biggest winner is still Han Yuan as he ate their cooking with gusto.
Oh, there is also Liu Erlong, who somehow became a secondary judge because entering a fight between two tigers wasn't very wise.
After filling his stomach with food, Han Yuan lay down on a hammock lazily while waiting for Qian Renxue. And surprisingly, she's already here only after an hour.
"You're here faster than I thought," said Han Yuan while rolling his body to face Qian Renxue.
Qian Renxue watched a glimpse of Han Yuan's refined muscles in those loose clothes and gulped inwardly, "O-Of course, don't underestimate me!"
"Anyway, here is the compensation." She handed him a wooden box sealed in strong spirit energy.
Han Yuan took the box and opened it, revealing a left leg spirit bone that was mainly pink and white. He traced the spirit bone with his fingers and commented, "100,000-year-old spirit bone."
"The Pope is really generous."
"She better be," Qian Renxue harrumphed. "That spirit bone came from the 100,000-year-old Soft Boned Rabbit, the Soft Charm Left Leg. And according to her, it has two spirit skills, a powerful spiritual-based charm, and invincibility for a few seconds."
"The charm is negligible in my opinion, but the invincibility will really help you a lot."
Han Yuan looked at the spirit bone and smiled, "While what you said is indeed true, who said I'm going to absorb this spirit bone?"
"Well, the value of this spirit bone is indeed high to some people."
"Or perhaps a little rabbit." He added with a playful look on his face.
