Chapter 157:Happy Birthday!
Sky City.
Today was an important day. As night fell, Wang Teng waited early by the teleportation altar.
Not long after, Qian Renxue arrived.
"Little Xue'er, hurry and come with me!"
As soon as Wang Teng saw Qian Renxue, he immediately pulled her towards the city wall of Sky City.
"What's wrong? Is there something urgent?"
Qian Renxue asked Wang Teng curiously. She noticed that Wang Teng seemed a bit off today.
"You'll know in a bit!"
"Alright!"
Subsequently, the two arrived on the city wall.
Wang Teng took out a communication crystal and said something. On the other side, Natya, who had long been prepared, received the signal from Wang Teng and began her actions.
Soon~
A sound similar to muffled thunder was heard, followed by a silver serpent rising into the sky. With a "bang," it exploded in the sky, like a beautiful flower blooming.
The blooming fireworks illuminated the entire Sky City as bright as day.
Subsequently, one silver serpent after another ascended. After the magnificent flowers that had initially exploded disappeared, fireworks burst open one after another in the sky, making the sky incredibly beautiful.
"Such beautiful fireworks~"
Qian Renxue stared blankly at the beautiful fireworks blooming in the night sky.
"Little Xue'er, Happy Birthday!"
"Huh? Is it my birthday already?"
Qian Renxue didn't have much concept of her birthday, because every time it was her birthday, only her grandfather, Qian Daoliu, would bring her congratulations. As for her mother, Bibi Dong, she had never celebrated a birthday with her.
Since leaving Spirit Hall and going to the Heaven Dou Empire, even her only grandfather couldn't celebrate with her anymore. So, Qian Renxue didn't pay much attention to her birthday.
Other children yearned for their birthdays, but Qian Renxue, on her birthday, would never receive blessings from her mother.
"Yes, today is your birthday!"
Wang Teng only remembered to celebrate his little sister's birthday because Qian Renxue had mentioned it unintentionally before.
Speaking of which, Wang Teng didn't remember it last year. After all, Wang Teng was a typical straight man and not the warm type. If it weren't for his excellence in other aspects, finding a girlfriend in the future would probably be a problem.
The two sat on the city wall, enjoying the beautiful fireworks.
Subsequently, Wang Teng brought Qian Renxue to the City Lord's Mansion, where a large cake was placed on the dining table.
After lighting the candles, Wang Teng began to call Qian Renxue over to blow them out.
"Little Xue'er, come quickly and make a wish and blow out the candles. Make sure to extinguish them all!"
"Mhm!"
Qian Renxue nodded, closed her eyes, and began to silently make a wish.
After a long while, her wish was complete. She took a deep breath, and all the lit candles were extinguished in one go.
Well, as a Spirit Saint level expert, this was quite simple.
"Little Xue'er, tell me if you have any wishes?"
"Wishes?"
Looking at Wang Teng, Qian Renxue thought for a moment and then spoke.
She had many wishes. When she was young, what she most yearned for was to receive Bibi Dong's affection.
But year after year of waiting, time and again disappointment, she never received the maternal love she craved.
As she gradually grew up, she knew that her wish could no longer be fulfilled. Her mother was still the same as before, for some reason, always disliking her so much.
Fortunately, she still had a grandfather who doted on her. And later, she also had Wang Teng, who doted on her, and Wang Teng's parents also loved her very much. Now, Qian Renxue felt very happy.
Suddenly, she remembered that she hadn't seen her grandfather in many years, and she wondered how he was doing?
"Wang Teng, I want to go back to Spirit Hall to see my grandfather!"
It had been many years since Qian Renxue came to Heaven Dou City. Although there were frequent letters, she still missed him greatly. After all, her grandfather was the only person who doted on her, besides Wang Teng and Wang Teng's parents.
That's right, ever since Qian Renxue went to Wang Teng's house last time, Wang Chengkun and Li Chan doted on her immensely. In their hearts, Wang Teng's status was no longer as high as that of their daughter-in-law.
"Alright then, tomorrow I'll accompany you to visit your grandfather! Speaking of which, I abducted his precious granddaughter, and I haven't even paid my respects to the old man yet!"
"Really?"
Qian Renxue's eyes lit up.
"Yes, I promise!"
Looking at Qian Renxue's eyes, Wang Teng felt a pang of heartache. Speaking of which, he hadn't met Qian Renxue's parents yet! He wasn't a dutiful boyfriend.
Moreover, he was a homebody who rarely left Sky City, and he had never been to Spirit Hall before. This was a good opportunity to take Qian Renxue to see her grandfather, and also to take her shopping.
"That's great!"
"Then come early tomorrow, and I'll take you back."
Sky City had many teleportation tokens, recording the spatial nodes of various major cities on the continent. Such an important place as Spirit City naturally had dedicated teleportation tokens recorded.
Even if Wang Teng wanted to go now, he could arrive immediately, but Wang Teng hadn't prepared a gift for the visit yet! He couldn't just show up empty-handed, otherwise, he would be ridiculed.
"Okay, okay, can we go today?"
Qian Renxue also thought of the function of the teleportation altar and immediately wanted to return to see her grandfather impatiently.
"No, I'm a son-in-law visiting for the first time, I have to bring some gifts! I haven't prepared the gifts yet, so it's better to go tomorrow."
He had to bring some gifts, otherwise, what if he was kicked out?
"Hmm~, alright then, hurry up and prepare!"
"Okay~, let me think, what kind of gift should I bring?"
Wang Teng couldn't think of what gift to bring for a while.
After all, this was for Qian Daoliu, and it seemed that some of the things he had on him might not be useful to him?
The only thing Qian Daoliu could use from him was a revival coin.
However, he only had one revival coin, and he needed to keep it for emergencies for now. Qian Daoliu didn't need this item right now; he would only use it when Qian Renxue became a God and he sacrificed himself. There was no need to give it to him so early.
But other things, like Spirit Bones, seemed to be completely looked down upon by Qian Daoliu?
What Qian Daoliu cared about was only whether Qian Renxue could become a God. Besides that, it seemed to be Poseidon, but Wang Teng had no way to bring Poseidon to Spirit Hall.
Headache, Wang Teng couldn't think of what to give for a while.
Suddenly, Wang Teng thought of something. There was one more thing that Qian Daoliu should care about, and that was the Heaven Dou Empire Royal Family's ultimate treasure—the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud.
This thing was the Sea God's Heart. Qian Daoliu should like this thing, because with it, the Sea God's inheritor would be unable to complete the Seagod Nine Trials, and then Poseidon, as the Sea God's Great Priest, would not need to sacrifice herself.
I believe Qian Daoliu will definitely be interested in this, so it's decided.
As for the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud still being in the hands of the Heaven Dou Royal Family? Would he not snatch it? With so many experts under his command, would the Heaven Dou Royal Family dare not give it?
Moreover, Wang Teng had originally planned to acquire this item in the future. After all, without the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, even if Tang San could obtain the Sea God's inheritance in the future, he would be unable to complete the final God Trial.
In the original work, the Sea God's Heart was given to Tang San by the Heaven Dou Royal Family. Although the Sea God's Heart could re-condense after being shattered, if it was completely gone, the situation would be different, and he would never be able to inherit the Sea God God Position in this life.
And now, the Sea God might not even look favorably upon Tang San.
After all, without the Immortal Herb and the three hundred-thousand-year Spirit Beasts sacrificing themselves, he would only have the advantage of twin spirits left. As for innate full spirit power, that was from his Mysterious Heaven Skill cultivation. If Tang San hadn't cultivated Mysterious Heaven Skill from a young age, he probably wouldn't have reached the level of innate full spirit power.
After thinking for a moment, Wang Teng made up his mind. It would be the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud.
One night was enough time for his subordinates to acquire the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud.
"Come, Little Xue'er, open your mouth, I'll feed you cake!"
"Mhm, ah~"
At this moment, Qian Renxue felt that she was the happiest person on the continent.
To be honest, the Douluo Continent was a bit strange. Although ordinary people lived a life similar to ancient society, it didn't mean that everyone did.
In some aspects, the Douluo Continent was not backward.
In the Great Spirit Arenas of some cities, there were even microphones and 'television screens'! These things were all made with spirit tools.
Wang Teng couldn't understand it. With such advanced items, why hadn't spirit tool equipment been developed yet?
The spirit tool technology of the Douluo Continent was more than one level behind that of the Sun Moon Continent next door.
That night, in Sky City, Wang Teng gave Qian Renxue a wonderful birthday celebration.
After seeing Qian Renxue off, Wang Teng called for Smilla, Panic, and Paris.
As for Natya, who was the strongest, she was a guest elder of the Heaven Dou Royal Family and couldn't engage in robbery.
And Smilla and the other two had not been exposed yet; only Qian Renxue and her two subordinates knew, so there was no need to worry about the Heaven Dou Empire suspecting Wang Teng.
Moreover, even if this matter became known in the future, it wouldn't matter, because by the time it was exposed, the Heaven Dou Royal Family would no longer exist.
The three's spirit power levels were now all 95th-rank Titled Douluo, and they were all capable of fighting above their rank. This strength was enough to crush the experts in the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace.
"Greetings, City Lord!"
As soon as the three saw Wang Teng, they immediately saluted.
"Hmm, I've called the three of you here this time because I have an important task for you."
"What is it?"
"You will go to the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace later and bring back the Heaven Dou Royal Family's great treasure, the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud."
"Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud?"
The three were a bit confused.
"That's right, it's the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud.
I believe with your strength, Emperor Xue Ye should hand it over.
If he doesn't, then threaten him with that Royal Family's Titled Douluo. Besides that, don't cause too much slaughter."
Facing three Super Douluo experts, Emperor Xue Ye would definitely hand over the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud.
After all, in his opinion, this item was useless and only sounded good. It was simply not as important as the life of his own Titled Douluo.
