145. Vassal

"Your Highness, the pills are ready," said Dugu Yan, holding a large bowl filled with dark red pills.

The only thing that really matters in it was the blood.

The other ingredients were just to preserve the energy of Qian Renjue's blood.

"Then take them to Uncle Dugu," Qian Renjue said casually, waving his hand.

"Yes, thank you, Your Highness." Donggu Yan thanked him again and headed towards Dugu Xin's room.

Qian Renjue watched her leave and instructed, "Sister Ling, please bring back a soul beast that has been around for nearly a thousand years."

"Understood," Ling Yuan Douluo nodded slightly and immediately followed Dugu Yan's direction, asking Dugu Bo about the suitable soul ring before leaving the valley.

"I wonder if the Beautiful Silk Tulip would work," Qian Renxue murmured as he withdrew his gaze and stored the poison skill.

He gently stroked the sleeping Soft Bone Rabbit beside him, carried it, and then walked towards Dugu Xin's room.

"Hmm—" The Soft Bone Rabbit wiggled its legs, turning over in Qian Renjue's arms, and snuggled closer.

"Yan Yan, when you get to the Spirit City, make sure to protect yourself. You're still young, and it's bad for your health," Dugu Xin's voice came from the room.

"What are you saying, Dad?!"

"I'm not talking nonsense. Young people are full of 'energy', and top of that you're so beautiful…"

"Your Highness won't do that."

"…"

Just as Qian Renjue arrived at the door, he heard Dugu Xin giving earnest advice to his daughter.

His face showed a bit of awkwardness.

"Anyway, if he wants it, you don't have to give it, understand?"

Dugu Xin, half-reclining on the bed, looked serious, fearing that he would be a grandfather without his knowledge.

"Your Highness."

Dugu Bo's surprised voice cut through, making Dugu Xin and his daughter quiet down immediately.

"Your Highness?!"

Dugu Yan turned around and surprised, her face quickly turned red.

"Your Highness, don't listen to his nonsense. Yan Yan will serve you well."

Dugu Yan's face flushed even more.

"Yan Yan, Daddy is very serious!"

Dugu Xin, with his green spiked hair, seemed completely unconcerned about offending someone, but instead he worried that Dugu Yan would be overly submissive to Qian Renjue.

This isn't the right time!

The corner of Qian Renjue's mouth twitched. The way Dugu Xin looked at him as if he was a big bad wolf.

"Your Highness, please forgive me."

Dugu Bo bowed deeply and gave Dugu Xin a stern look.

Qian Renjue shook his head, didn't bother it anymore.

"Senior Dugu, there is no need for such formality. Your son is just concerned for his daughter."

"Does Your Highness have any other instructions?" Dugu Bo asked respectfully.

"Indeed," Qian Renjue nodded.

He smiled and said, "Plans have changed. Yan Yan doesn't need to accompany me to the Spirit Hall City."

"What?"

Dugu Bo was taken aback.

Dugu Xin's face showed joy. "That's great!"

"W-Why?"

Dugu Yan was puzzled, quickly grabbing Qian Renjue's arm.

She had just made up her mind, and now, Qian Renjue didn't want her anymore?

With a frown, she asked, "Your Highness, did Yan Yan do something wrong?"

"Yan Yan?"

Dugu Xin's smile faded, looking a bit dazed.

Qian Renjue smiled and ruffled Donggu Yan's hair. "Yan Yan, you didn't do anything wrong. I just have other tasks for you."

"Other tasks?"

Dugu Yan was baffled.

"I'd like you to attend the Heaven Dou Royal Academy and protect the successor of the Nine-heart Begonia," Qian Renjue said with a smile.

Compared to him, Ye Lingling might need Dugu Yan as a friend more.

"The successor of the Nine-heart Begonia?"

Dugu Yan, having grown up in Heaven Dou City, naturally knew about the Ye family that was located there.

"Yes, just interact with her normally," Qian Renjue advised softly.

There's no under lying meaning behind his record, simply just Ye Lingling was too lonely.

Dugu Yan bit her lip, reluctant to take on this task and wanting to leave with Qian Renjue instead.

However, the hopeful gaze of Dugu Xin

And the order from Qian Renjue, she was forced to agree.

"Your Highness, I understand."

As Dugu Yan spoke, Qian Renjue's mind once again heard the system's electronic voice.

[Congratulations to the host for successfully spreading great love for the first time! (Target: Dugu Xin)]

[Reward: 250 points.]

"Thank you, Your Highness!"

Dugu Xin was ecstatic.

"Heh," Qian Renjue nodded slightly and gently pinched Dugu Yan's cheek.

"I will speak to my sister about it."

Realizing something, Qian Renjue couldn't help but offer a warning. "Also, I hope you understand which forces are the enemies of the Spirit Hall and avoid making things more difficult for me."

Qian Renjue spoke without honorifics, his serious tone carrying a hint of threat.

"Understood!"

Dugu Bo immediately bowed and agreed. He naturally understood the meaning behind the words

"Yan Yan will listen to Master."

Dugu Yan looked up at Qian Renjue, earnestly promising.

She placed herself in a very humble position.

Dugu Xin also quickly expressed his loyalty. "Your Highness, rest assured, I, Dugu Xin, am absolutely loyal!"

"I hope so," Qian Renjue patted Dugu Yan on the shoulder and took out the[Jade Phosphor Poison Skill]from the system space, handing it to Dugu Bo.

"Senior Dugu, I wish you a quick breakthrough to the Title Douluo level."

Dugu Bo was momentarily stunned, looking at the book cover with a puzzled expression.

He accepted the poison skill without hesitation

"I will do my best."

"Your Highness, the soul beast has been captured!"

Ling Yuan Douluo's voice came from outside.

Qian Renjue turned to Dugu Yan.

"Let's go, Yan Yan. Your soul ring has been captured."

"Mm."

Dugu Yan nodded and quickly followed Qian Renjue.

Not far from the wooden house, Dugu Bo's ecstatic voice came through.

"Ha ha! My Dugu family is truly saved, truly saved!"

"Your Highness, thank you for your huge grace!"

Dugu Bo knelt on the ground and heavily kowtowed to Qian Renjue's back.

He shouted loudly, "Your Highness, our Dugu family is willing to be the vassal of the Spirit Hall for generations!"

"Dad, what's wrong?"

Dugu Xin looked confused.

His father, who was always used freedom, was making such a decision.

"The things given by Your Highness have completely resolved our Dugu family's concerns!"

Dugu Bo explained with great excitement.

"We don't need soul bones anymore!"

"And there's a method for the Jade Phosphor Serpent Martial Soul to break through to Title Douluo!"

"This thing is enough to be passed down for millenium!"

"What?!"

Dugu Xin's eyes widened, staring fervently at the[Jade Phosphor Poison Skill]in Dugu Bo's hands.

Dugu Yan that was following Qian Renjue, also heard Dugu Bo's voice and looked up at Qian Renjue.

Serious, she asked, "Master, how should Slave Yan repay you?"

"…"

Qian Renjue's previously smiling mouth slightly stiffened.

Why was she calling him Master again?
