"Your Highness, the pills are all ready."
Dugu Yan held a large bowl filled with dark red pills.
The only thing that truly mattered inside was the blood.
The other medicinal herbs were just to maintain the activity of Qian Renjue's blood.
"If they're ready, take them to Senior Dugu."
Qian Renjue waved his hand casually.
"Yes, thank you, Your Highness."
Dugu Yan thanked him again and ran towards Dugu Xin's room.
Qian Renjue watched her receding figure.
He instructed, "Sister Ling Yuan, please capture a soul beast that's nearly a thousand years old."
"Understood."
Spirit Vulture Douluo nodded slightly.
She immediately chased after Dugu Yan to ask Dugu Bo what kind of soul ring would be suitable.
Then she left the valley.
"I wonder if the Qiluo Tulip will work."
Qian Renjue retracted his gaze, muttering softly as he retracted his poison skill.
He gently stroked the soft bone rabbit sleeping beside him.
Holding it in his arms, he got up and walked towards the room where Dugu Xin and the others were.
"Woo ~"
The soft bone rabbit kicked its legs, turned over in Qian Renjue's arms, and rubbed against him.
...
"Yan'er, when you get to Wuhun City, you must protect yourself. You're still young... it'll hurt your body."
"Dad, what nonsense are you talking about?!"
"I'm not talking nonsense. Young people are full of energy, and our Yan'er is so beautiful..."
"The Holy Son wouldn't do that."
"..."
Just as he reached the door of the room.
Qian Renjue heard Dugu Xin's earnest teachings to his daughter.
An odd expression couldn't help but appear on his face.
"Anyway, if he wants it, you can refuse, understand?"
Dugu Xin lay half-reclined on the bed, his face serious, afraid of becoming a grandfather.
"Your Highness."
Dugu Bo's surprised voice rang out, and Dugu Xin and his daughter immediately quieted down.
"Holy Son?!"
Dugu Yan turned her head, stunned, and a blush quickly crept onto her pretty face.
She quickly explained:
"Your Highness, don't listen to his nonsense. Yan'er will serve you well."
As soon as she said those words.
The blush on Dugu Yan's face deepened.
"Yan'er, Dad is very serious!"
Dugu Xin, with his green spiky hair, wasn't afraid of anything.
Instead, he was afraid that Dugu Yan would be too obedient to Qian Renjue.
This wouldn't do!
Dugu Xin looked at Qian Renjue as if he were looking at a hooligan.
The corners of Qian Renjue's mouth twitched slightly.
"Please forgive him, Your Highness."
Dugu Bo bowed and glared fiercely at Dugu Xin.
Qian Renjue shook his head, not caring.
He raised his hand and said, "Senior Dugu, there's no need to be like this. Your son is just concerned about his daughter."
"Does Your Highness have any matters to attend to?"
Dugu Bo asked respectfully.
"Indeed."
Qian Renjue nodded.
Smiling, he said, "The plan has changed. Yan'er doesn't need to return to Wuhun City with me."
"What?"
Dugu Bo was stunned.
Dugu Xin's face showed joy.
"That's great!"
"W-why?"
Dugu Yan's face was full of confusion, and she quickly stepped forward to grab Qian Renjue's arm.
She had just made up her mind.
How could Qian Renjue not want her in the blink of an eye?
Frowning, she asked, "Your Highness, did Yan'er do something wrong?"
"Yan'er...?"
The smile on Dugu Xin's face faded, and he was a little dazed.
Qian Renjue smiled and rubbed Dugu Yan's head.
He shook his head and said, "Yan'er, you didn't do anything wrong. I just have other things for you to do."
"Other things?"
Dugu Yan was at a loss.
"I want you to go to Tiandou Royal Academy to protect the successor of the Nine Heart Begonia..."
Qian Renjue said with a smile.
Compared to a personal maid, Ye Lingling might need a friend like Dugu Yan more.
"The successor of the Nine Heart Begonia?"
Dugu Yan had grown up in Tiandou City since she was a child.
Naturally, she knew about the Ye family of Nine Heart Begonia located in Tiandou City.
"Yes, you just need to approach her with a normal heart."
Qian Renjue gently instructed.
Simple protection work wasn't really necessary.
Ye Lingling was just too lonely.
"..."
Dugu Yan pursed her pink lips.
She didn't really want to do this and wanted to go with Qian Renjue.
But Dugu Xin's hopeful gaze.
As well as the order from her master Qian Renjue, forced her to agree.
"Your Highness, Yan'er understands."
As soon as Dugu Yan's words fell.
The system's electronic voice rang in Qian Renjue's mind again.
[Congratulations to the host for successfully conveying great love for the first time! (Target: Dugu Xin)]
[Reward: 250 points.]
"Thank you, Your Highness!"
Dugu Xin was extremely excited.
"Heh."
Qian Renjue nodded slightly and gently pinched Dugu Yan's cheek.
"I'll talk to older sister about it."
As if thinking of something, Qian Renjue couldn't help but warn.
"Also, I hope you understand which forces are enemies of the Spirit Hall, and don't do anything that would make things difficult for me."
Qian Renjue no longer used honorifics.
His face was serious, and his words were full of threats and warnings.
"This subordinate understands!"
Dugu Bo naturally understood and immediately bowed and agreed.
"Yan'nu will listen to master's words."
Dugu Yan looked up at Qian Renjue and vowed to guarantee.
Placing herself in a very humble position.
Dugu Xin also immediately expressed his position, "Your Highness, rest assured, I, Dugu Xin, am absolutely loyal!"
"I hope so."
Qian Renjue patted Dugu Yan on the shoulder and took out [Azure Phosphorous Poison Art] from the system space.
He handed it to Dugu Bo.
"Senior Dugu, I wish you an early breakthrough to the Title Douluo realm."
Dugu Bo was stunned.
He lowered his eyes and looked at the large characters on the book cover, somewhat puzzled.
He accepted the poison skill.
"This subordinate will do his best."
"Your Highness, the soul beast has been captured!"
Outside, Spirit Vulture Douluo's voice rang out, and Qian Renjue looked at Dugu Yan.
"Let's go, Yan'er, your soul ring has been captured."
"Yes."
Dugu Yan nodded and quickly followed Qian Renjue's pace.
Before they had gone far.
A ecstatic voice came from the wooden house.
"Haha... My Dugu family is really saved, really saved!"
"Thank you for your grace, Your Highness! Thank you!"
Dugu Bo knelt on the ground and kowtowed heavily to Qian Renjue's back.
He said loudly:
"Your Highness, my Dugu family is willing to depend on the Spirit Hall for generations to come!"
"Dad, what's wrong with you?"
Dugu Xin's face was full of confusion.
How could his old man, who was used to freedom, make such a decision.
"The thing that Your Highness gave has completely solved the worries of our Dugu family!"
Dugu Bo knelt on the ground, explaining with an excited face.
"No need for soul bones!"
"And there is also a method that belongs exclusively to our Azure Phosphorous Serpent martial soul to break through to the Title Douluo realm!"
"This thing is enough to be passed down for ten thousand years!"
"What?!"
Dugu Xin's eyes widened.
His eyes were burning as he stared at the [Azure Phosphorous Poison Art] in Dugu Bo's hand.
...
Dugu Yan, who was following Qian Renjue, naturally heard Dugu Bo's voice.
She looked up at Qian Renjue.
And asked seriously, "Master, how should Yan'nu repay you?"
"..."
The corners of Qian Renjue's mouth, which were originally smiling, froze slightly.
How did she become master again?
Wishing everyone a happy life!
