Chapter 402: Chapter 402: The Flaw in the Lie
Many people had been hoping that someone would challenge Xiao Yu, allowing them to witness the strength of a so-called god-level powerhouse.
However, in the presence of the three Super Douluos from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family acting as gatekeepers, everyone abandoned that thought.
After all, a god-level powerhouse truly wasn’t suited for casual displays of strength.
Meanwhile, the envoys from the Star Luo Empire, who had been hiding in the shadows, had initially planned to approach Xiao Yu to retrieve Dai Mubai’s body.
But upon seeing the gathering of powerful figures around Xiao Yu, they could only lower their heads and quickly retreat back to the Star Luo Empire.
At this moment, they didn’t even dare to speak to Xiao Yu.
After all, Dai Mubai had offended a god.
Thus, they didn’t dare to casually approach Xiao Yu now.
Sacrificing their lives for a dead prince was simply not worth it.
"Xiao Yu, would you be willing to come to the Elder Hall later? I have some matters I’d like to discuss with you."
After the ceremony, Qian Daoliu approached Xiao Yu.
The words Tang Chen had spoken to him had left Qian Daoliu in a state of internal conflict for a long time.
Therefore, he thought that since Xiao Yu was a god, he might be able to provide some answers and help resolve his inner turmoil.
As for Qian Daoliu’s approach, Bibi Dong did not intervene.
After all, once the discussion was over, she could rightfully take Xiao Yu for the night and spend some intimate time with him.
Bibi Dong had already instructed Hu Liena to prepare a series of outfits and the lingerie and stockings she had collected over the years, all placed in her room. Two years of preparation were all for tonight, to fully showcase herself.
As for Qian Daoliu’s invitation, Xiao Yu did not refuse.
After all, once he finished talking with Qian Daoliu, he could also play a "hamburger stacking" game with Bibi Dong and Hu Liena before leaving!
Seeing Xiao Yu’s eager agreement, Qian Daoliu’s face lit up with excitement.
He had initially thought Xiao Yu might refuse, but he hadn’t expected such a quick acceptance.
For a moment, the three of them, each with their own ulterior motives, exchanged knowing smiles.
However, none of them noticed the look on Liu Erlong’s face as she watched Qian Daoliu approach Xiao Yu.
Her gaze toward Bibi Dong also grew increasingly hostile.
"..."
"Xiao Yu, since the ceremony is over, Uncle Jian and I will head back first."
"That’s right, Xiao Yu, I also need to return. I’ve been away for several days now. Although nothing major is likely to happen, it’s still better to return to the sect and oversee things."
Upon learning that Xiao Yu would be staying another night, Ning Fengzhi and Yu Yuanzhen chose not to stay longer and instead prepared to leave.
After all, there were many matters to handle within their sects.
Now that Xiao Yu had become a god, it was time for them to expand their sects’ influence on the continent.
Finally, after being seen off by Xiao Yu, they left with their people, heading back toward Heaven Dou City.
Dugu Bo also offered a few words of encouragement before deciding to return early to the Blue Tyrant Academy to oversee things.
After all, Xiao Yu no longer needed his protection.
If anything, Xiao Yu could protect him now.
As for Liu Erlong, she chose to stay, planning to return with Xiao Yu.
Although she was the academy’s dean, the academy now had Xiao Yu’s female slaves, the Title Douluo-level Spirit Vulture, and several of Xiao Yu’s Soul Emperor-level girlfriends overseeing things. Additionally, Dugu Bo was already on his way back.
Moreover, being located in Heaven Dou City and close to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, reinforcements could arrive quickly if needed.
Thus, whether she was present or not made little difference.
Soon, after bidding farewell to everyone, Xiao Yu followed Qian Daoliu to the Elder Hall, while Liu Erlong waited in the room for Xiao Yu’s return.
"..."
Inside the Elder Hall, Bibi Dong, Qian Daoliu, Xiao Yu, and Qian Renxue were seated around a tea table.
The table was filled with various snacks, pastries, and tea.
Beside them stood a golden-haired, beautiful Soul Saint-level maid, likely a member of the Qian family’s branch.
Qian Daoliu had gone all out to entertain Xiao Yu.
After some casual small talk, Qian Renxue was the first to speak, her face filled with disbelief.
"Xiao Yu, are you really a god?"
When she had disguised herself as Xue Qinghe, she had interacted with Xiao Yu quite a bit.
She knew Xiao Yu was a genius, with rapid growth, but she had never imagined his progress could be so fast.
In just a few years, he had become a god?
"Xue’er, don’t be rude! Xiao Yu defeated Tang Chen with ease and even defeated Dai Mubai, who was wearing the War God’s Armor. If that level of strength doesn’t make him a god, then what does?
Xiao Yu, please don’t mind her. This girl has been spoiled by me since childhood and lacks manners. I hope you won’t take offense."
Hearing Qian Renxue’s impolite question, Qian Daoliu gently scolded her.
Bibi Dong also shot Qian Renxue a reproachful glance but remained silent.
Hearing her grandfather’s scolding and seeing her sister’s gaze, Qian Renxue immediately apologized and fell silent, though her sapphire-blue eyes remained fixed on Xiao Yu.
Since childhood, her grandfather had told her that she had a high chance of becoming a god, with her innate full soul power of level 20 giving her a great chance of inheriting the Angel God’s position!
Thus, Qian Renxue had always been proud of her innate soul power of level 20, considering it a mark of her unparalleled talent.
But now, with a true god standing before her, and one so young at that, Qian Renxue suddenly felt that her once-proud innate soul power of level 20 was... just average.
"It’s fine. Xue’er and I are no strangers. Since she wants to know, I’ll explain. Right now, I’m not exactly the kind of god you might imagine. At best, I’m a Title Douluo with god-level combat power! To truly become a god, I still need to break through to level 100 in soul power before I can ascend to the divine realm."
Hearing this, Qian Daoliu and Qian Renxue’s faces showed understanding.
So that’s how it was.
Even so, a Title Douluo with god-level combat power was still incredibly shocking to the grandfather and granddaughter.
"Senior Qian Daoliu, you called me here not just to find out if I’m a god, right?"
Xiao Yu took a sip of tea and looked into Qian Daoliu’s eyes as he spoke.
Hearing Xiao Yu address him as "senior," Qian Daoliu quickly replied.
"Please, Xiao Yu, don’t call me senior. In front of you, how could I possibly be considered a senior? I couldn’t even defeat Tang Chen, while you easily defeated him and even Dai Mubai, who had defeated Tang Chen. You should be the senior here."
Hearing this, Xiao Yu smiled noncommittally.
Finally, after gathering his thoughts for a while, Qian Daoliu asked the question weighing on his mind.
