Ning Fengzhi continued, "Li Qing's talent is beyond doubt, and after Dugu Yan's Martial Soul evolves, it shouldn't be difficult for her to cultivate to the Title level."
"I plan to send Rongrong to Heaven Dou Noble Academy after her Martial Soul evolves."
"As long as Rongrong can become friends with Li Qing and Dugu Yan, or even... in short, this way, even if we leave, the future of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will not be a problem."
Gu Rong and the other person pondered for a moment, then silently nodded.
In the long run, cultivating Rongrong is indeed the best choice, because as Ning Fengzhi said, they are old and cannot protect the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School for many years.
The future of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School still depends on Rongrong.
If Rongrong can become friends with Li Qing, or even form a partnership, it would definitely be a good guarantee for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. They could die with some peace of mind.
...
Spirit Hall.
After several days of travel, Yue Guan and the other person finally returned to Spirit Hall. The two immediately sought out Bi Bi Dong and reported all their experiences from this trip one by one.
Bi Bi Dong did not rush to make a decision, but carefully flipped through "Heavenly Treasures".
When she turned to the eighteenth page, her movements suddenly paused, and an indescribable gleam burst forth from her eyes. Her entire body trembled with excitement, as if she had... well, you know.
Dragon blood fruit: A top-tier heavenly treasure containing the true dragon bloodline, which can cause any dragon-type Martial Soul to evolve into a divine true dragon Martial Soul.
Why did Yu Xiaogang leave her?
If it was just because of Qian Xunji's obstruction, then Qian Xunji has been dead for so many years, why didn't he come back to find her? In the end, it was because he felt inferior.
Or perhaps it was because of his arrogance.
Yu Xiaogang had always been a very proud and confident person in Bi Bi Dong's heart. Even knowing that talent represented everything, he never thought of giving up.
This was also his charm.
She was the favored daughter of heaven, the high and mighty Pope of Spirit Hall, while he was just a notorious good-for-nothing on the Douluo Continent. His arrogance would never allow him to be with Bi Bi Dong.
Because then others would think he was a good-for-nothing who only relied on women.
If she found the dragon blood fruit and helped him complete his Martial Soul evolution, when his talent could match her status, would he then be willing to be with her?
Thinking of this possibility, Bi Bi Dong could no longer suppress the excitement in her heart.
Bi Bi Dong looked at Yue Guan and the other person: "Don't worry about Li Qing anymore. Issue an order to all of Spirit Hall to search for the dragon blood fruit with all their might. Find it at all costs."
"Uh..."
Hearing this, Yue Guan and the other person instantly guessed what she was thinking. They were more or less speechless.
Is it worth it for such a good-for-nothing?
Yue Guan then said, "Your Holiness the Pope, if you really want to search for the dragon blood fruit at all costs, I think you should look at the last page."
Bi Bi Dong was startled and quickly turned to the last page.
Cornucopia: A special treasure land located in the core area of the Star Dou Great Forest, where various heavenly treasures grow. It is guarded by top-tier soul beasts. Proceed with caution.
Bi Bi Dong frowned slightly.
Spirit Hall has records of the true core area of the Star Dou Great Forest. Although it didn't mention the specific dangers inside, it did state that even ninety-ninth level Title Douluo have gone in and never returned.
Should she go ask Qian Daoliu?
Even knowing the danger within, Bi Bi Dong never thought of giving up. However, she also knew that it was impossible for her and Yue Guan's group to obtain heavenly treasures from there.
She would never ask Qian Daoliu for anything else, but for Yu Xiaogang...
"Sigh!"
After a moment of thought, Bi Bi Dong couldn't help but sigh, because she knew that it wasn't a matter of whether she was willing to lower herself to ask Qian Daoliu.
It was that the other party would simply not agree.
Her purpose couldn't be hidden from him. Let alone for Yu Xiaogang, even for Bi Bi Dong herself, Qian Daoliu would never take this risk.
It seems she can only wait until she takes that step before saying anything.
Bi Bi Dong closed the book and instructed, "Just go all out to search. Not just the dragon blood fruit, but also the other heavenly treasures in the book. Search for them with all your might."
"Yes!"
Upon hearing this, Yue Guan and the other person couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. It seemed she hadn't gone completely insane yet.
...
Noding City.
After returning, Li Qing didn't go to find Mashinuo or Xiao Chenyu and others, nor did he even return to his own home. Instead, he checked into an inconspicuous hotel.
He didn't know if the things he prepared for Bi Bi Dong could divert her attention, but keeping a low profile was definitely the right thing to do.
Li Qing found a hotel waiter and asked him to help prepare some living supplies, as he didn't know how long he would need to stay in the wilderness this time.
After confirming the specific supplies needed, Li Qing turned and walked towards the stairs.
However, halfway up the stairs, he saw a 'beggar' who looked around fifty years old, wearing a battle-damaged robe, with bird's nest-like hair and knotted beard, coming down from upstairs.
Li Qing quietly stepped back and waited for him to leave before going upstairs, as if he found the other person somewhat repulsive.
There are no beggars on the Douluo Continent, because even without innate soul power, one can support oneself with their Martial Soul. While not wealthy, solving the problem of food and clothing is not an issue.
Apart from Tang Hao, it would be difficult to find a second person with the appearance of a beggar on the entire Douluo Continent.
He didn't expect him to arrive in Noding City so early. He wondered if he was here to investigate Yu Xiaogang, or if he had been secretly guarding Tang San since he enrolled.
This would make things easier for Li Qing.
The next day, Li Qing left Noding City early in the morning and headed straight for the Abyss Forest. When he felt he was close enough, he took out the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum.
After finding the river outside the Abyss Forest, Li Qing began searching for a waterfall along the river.
Perhaps even heaven couldn't stand this improper love, or perhaps it was just luck, but Li Qing found the first waterfall in just over four hours.
He just didn't know if this was the waterfall where A Yin was located.
Although he encountered a person who was possibly Tang Hao, Li Qing didn't dare to be careless. What if that person wasn't Tang Hao? Wouldn't barging in like that be seeking death?
Li Qing hid on a mountaintop about three kilometers away from the waterfall.
From here, he could roughly observe the waterfall without being detected by a potentially present Tang Hao. It was a relatively safe observation point.
Just like that, Li Qing remained hidden here for three days.
Title Douluo in this world also need to eat, drink, and relieve themselves. If Tang Hao was inside, no matter how much he could hold it, he couldn't possibly not show up for three days.
He couldn't possibly be using his waste to nourish his wife, could he?
Unfermented waste would burn his wife to death. Since A Yin was able to hold on until Tang San arrived, it meant Tang Hao wasn't that stupid.
Li Qing no longer hesitated and headed straight towards the waterfall.
