Chapter 45: Bibi Dong Does Not Appreciate It, Qian Daoliu Breaks Through Level 100
"Oh my goodness!"
"What kind of person is Bo Saixi, and how beautiful is she?"
"She can make the two peaks of the Soul Master World like her at the same time!"
A sensation swept across the continent!
Many people had not expected that Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen, when they were young, had both pursued the same woman.
And the dignified High Priest of Spirit Hall, a level 99 Ultimate Douluo, was subtly rejected by her.
At this moment, everyone wanted to catch a glimpse of Bo Saixi's charm.
To see this mysterious woman!
"So, besides Grandma, Grandpa also liked a woman named Bo Saixi."
"But she rejected Grandpa; she has no taste."
"Someone as outstanding as Grandpa is more than enough for any woman."
Qian Renxue murmured to herself, feeling indignant for Qian Daoliu.
What kind of person was Tang Chen to be compared with her own Grandpa?
In terms of looks, people of the Qian Clan were born to be the most handsome and beautiful.
Their excellent genes were passed down through generations.
In terms of character, Qian Daoliu's gentlemanly demeanor was no less than Tang Chen's.
The only thing Qian Daoliu might not have been able to compare with was strength.
(T/N: It's not that Qian Daoliu couldn't defeat Tang Chen — it's more a case of the author intentionally lowering his intelligence during their confrontation. After all, how could someone with a God-level martial soul lose to someone with only a top-tier martial soul? Is a God-level martial soul really that cheap? Just look at Gu Yuena in the third series — she possesses a God-level martial soul, and aside from Tang Wulin, no one in that era could compare to her. Not even Yun Ming, who was hailed as the genius in the entire Douluo series.)
For Bo Saixi to choose Tang Chen and not Qian Daoliu, in Qian Renxue's eyes, was a loss.
"That bitch, couldn't she just say no directly to Qian Daoliu?"
"Why be so circuitous?"
"It caused Eldest Brother to fall deep into Slaughter City, and he hasn't returned to this day."
In the Clear Sky Sect, the Second Elder looked displeased.
Since Bo Saixi chose Tang Chen, she should have stated it directly.
Being so ambiguous was simply like a gold-digger.
The Second Elder was also an experienced person.
He had seen many women and experienced many relationships.
Ultimately, Bo Saixi was not being reserved.
She simply wanted to choose Tang Chen while still stringing Qian Daoliu along.
Love should be about mutual honesty and heartfelt communication.
If someone has a mouth but can't speak clearly, either they have a problem with their brain, or they have ulterior motives.
The Second Elder's dissatisfaction led to other Elders agreeing.
"That's right, this Bo Saixi is not a good person!"
If Bo Saixi had been straightforward back then,
The Clear Sky Sect wouldn't be in such a state now!
Tang Chen could have lived happily ever after with her.
The Clear Sky Sect also wouldn't have been forced to retreat from the continent because they couldn't defeat Spirit Hall.
Because of a single sentence from Bo Saixi,
Tang Chen painstakingly sought the God Legacy for many years, only to be unfortunately ambushed by the Rakshasa God.
Bo Saixi bears primary responsibility for this series of tragedies.
[Since I took charge of Spirit Hall, I have always remembered the purpose for which Spirit Hall was founded. I ordered the eradication of evil Soul Masters across the continent, bringing peace to the common people.]
[I provided free Martial Soul Awakening for ordinary people, allowing more individuals to have the opportunity to become Soul Masters, and I issued stipends to Soul Masters, ensuring that every Soul Master could have their living and cultivation needs met.]
[Each generation has its tasks, but Spirit Hall's purpose will never change: to protect the justice of the continent.]
[Later, my son Qian Xunji grew up day by day, and I passed the position of Supreme Pontiff to him.]
[I retreated behind the scenes, entrusting the Qian Clan's duty of protecting justice to the next generation.]
[But I didn't expect Qian Xunji to disappoint me after all.]
[He forced his disciple into a relationship, making a done deal out of it.]
[Although many things happened during this time, as a member of the Qian Clan, I hope every member, no matter what happens, can adhere to the bottom line of morality.]
[I failed Bibi Dong, and I can only try my best to compensate her.]
[Later, Qian Xunji and Tang Hao, a disciple of the Clear Sky Sect, fought fiercely over the 100,000-year Blue Silver Emperor. Qian Xunji was severely wounded and fled back in a sorry state.]
[I brought the best healing Soul Masters for Qian Xunji and used the best recovery resources to successfully save his life.]
[I thought Qian Xunji would get better day by day, but an accident still happened!]
[Bibi Dong, out of hatred, took advantage of Qian Xunji's severe injuries to brutally kill and devour him.]
[The hatred for killing my son is irreconcilable. I originally wanted to kill Bibi Dong to avenge Qian Xunji, but in the end, I gave up.]
[What the Qian family owed her, they had to repay eventually.]
[An eye for an eye. I hoped the grievances between Bibi Dong and Qian Xunji could end there.]
[Let Qian Xunji repay for the mistakes he made himself!]
[I did not expose Bibi Dong's actions. To defend Spirit Hall's reputation, I only demanded that the Clear Sky Sect hand over Tang Hao to quell public opinion.]
[But I didn't expect the Clear Sky Sect to be uncooperative, even actively attacking the Spirit Hall Soul Masters who wanted to apprehend Tang Hao.]
[Seeing this situation, I could only give the Clear Sky Sect a minor lesson.]
[Under my pressure, the Clear Sky Sect chose to retreat from the continent, and Tang Hao also disappeared without a trace.]
[I did not make things too difficult for the Clear Sky Sect because I had an agreement with Tang Chen that I would not actively attack the Clear Sky Sect before defeating him. If it weren't for the Clear Sky Sect's reactive behavior this time, I would not have affected the entire sect.]
[If it were the other two sects of the Upper Three Sects, I definitely would not have shown mercy.]
[People in the Hall advised me to lead Spirit Hall to destroy the Clear Sky Sect in one fell swoop, as the sect would surely become one of Spirit Hall's threats in the future.]
[Although I understood that it was indeed a good opportunity at the moment, I have always been upright throughout my life, and I did not want to go back on my word.]
[I allowed the Clear Sky Sect to remain reclusive, only ordering the pursuit and arrest of Tang Hao alone.]
...
"Qian Daoliu, you old scoundrel! You knew all along that your son didn't die at my hand, yet you still blamed my Clear Sky Sect."
"This grudge, I will surely make your Spirit Hall repay a thousandfold."
Tang Hao was furious.
He originally thought that he was merely slandered by Bibi Dong, becoming her scapegoat.
He didn't expect Qian Daoliu to play him as well.
Qian Daoliu knew who his son's killer was.
Yet, Qian Daoliu didn't retaliate against Bibi Dong; instead, he went after the Clear Sky Sect with all his might.
"Father, once Great-Grandpa is found, he will surely uphold justice for you."
Tang San comforted Tang Hao.
He could feel how intense Tang Hao's desire to kill was at that moment.
Tang Hao clenched his fists, and although he tried his best to control his killing intent, frost-like ice still formed around him.
The surrounding space was rapidly dropping!
Just then, a few short-sighted, evil Soul Masters came looking for trouble.
Tang Hao released his Clear Sky Hammer and unhesitatingly used it as a punching bag.
Slaughter City lacked everything!
Except for such short-sighted Soul Masters!
With a few thuds, only a few puddles of crimson blood remained on the scene.
On the other side...
Bibi Dong saw this scene but was not appreciative.
"Qian Daoliu, don't think that just because you let me go, I will be grateful to you."
"The grievances between me and your Qian family will never end until one of us is dead."
"Qian Xunji's death cannot quell the resentment in my heart."
Bibi Dong spoke coldly.
If it were a normal person, Qian Daoliu's approach might indeed be fine.
But the thing is, Bibi Dong was not a normal person.
She had already been corrupted, her mind becoming insane and twisted.
What she had decided, she would not change.
She still wanted to destroy Spirit Hall and the Qian Clan.
[After Qian Xunji's death, I focused on raising Qian Renxue, hoping she wouldn't go astray.]
[Qian Renxue is my only granddaughter and the most promising successor to inherit the Angel God in the future. I had high hopes for her.]
[After she returned to Spirit Hall, I personally initiated the Angel Nine Trials for her, guiding her on the path of Legacy.]
[During this period, I devoted myself wholeheartedly, making up for the regret of not being able to accompany her throughout her childhood.]
[I wanted to make up for all the teaching I owed Xiaoxue; I hoped she could fly higher and further.]
[Finally, I sacrificed my life to pave the way for Xiaoxue's ascension to God.]
[Although I cannot personally witness her becoming a God, I have fulfilled my responsibility, and I believe she will not disappoint me.]
[Reviewing concluded!]
[The First Gentleman of the Continent, Qian Daoliu]
[Rating: 80]
[Reward: Breakthrough to Level 100!]
