—------------------—
Qian Renxue sold the Chrysanthemum Douluo very straightforwardly.
Everything she saw and heard along the way shocked Qian Renxue, and she also wondered if the Palace Master was trying to make her see the reality.
She even suspected that the Palace Master had already known about Chrysanthemum Douluo's arrival in Tiandou City.
Is this a test of his loyalty, or is he also suspicious of ghosts?
Qian Renxue couldn't guess, nor did she want to guess.
Helping Chrysanthemum Douluo rescue Ghost Douluo is obviously impossible, so it would be better to sell Chrysanthemum Douluo out to prove that he has no ill intentions towards the Soul Palace.
She didn't care whether the ghost would be suspected.
Qian Renxue's mental activities are very complicated, while Ghost Douluo only has one thought.
"The old friends have come to Tiandou City. They have the opportunity to get together again and never be separated."
"Where is Yue Guan?"
Qian Renxue said, "Chrysanthemum Douluo came to Tiandou City to look for you. He suspected that you had encountered the Haotian Sect, so he planned to investigate the Haotian Sect's headquarters."
"What?"
Ghost Douluo is worried about the safety of his old friend.
The reason why he joined the Soul Palace was indeed due to the Haotian Sect. If Tang Xiao had not brought the elders of the Haotian Sect to chase him, he would not have rushed to the Soul Palace in a panic.
Of course, in hindsight, he felt extremely fortunate to have been able to join the Soul Palace.
"Palace Master, my old friend Chrysanthemum Douluo from the Spirit Hall has come to Tiandou City. Do you need someone to bring him over so he can serve you as well?"
Although Ghost Douluo couldn't wait to meet Chrysanthemum Douluo, he was more aware of his current identity. He knew that only the Palace Master could decide whether to agree to Yue Guan joining the Soul Palace, and he could not decide on his own.
"Can you do it?" Xiao Mu said lightly.
"I can definitely do it. Since joining the Soul Palace, I haven't made many contributions. If I can't do this, I will be truly unworthy of the Palace Master's kindness."
"Go ahead. You can choose a mount when you come back."
"Yes, thank you, Master."
The ghost left with tears of gratitude.
Qian Qiusui has also successfully signed a soul contract with Youming Guima.
Qian Qiusui climbed onto the horse, but the grumpy ghost horse didn't resist at all and was as docile as an ordinary horse that had been raised since childhood.
Qian Qiusui sat on the back of the Netherworld Ghost Horse and let the Netherworld Ghost Horse take him for a circle.
Qian Renxue looked at Qian Qiusui in surprise and envy.
The fact that the Soul Palace could raise soul beasts was enough to surprise her, but she didn't expect that it could also allow ferocious and violent soul beasts to become mounts.
"Ziqi, it's your turn."
He already had a mount before the battle began, and Ghost Douluo was rushing to see his old friend, so Yang Ziqi was the only one left among the Tianzuns.
"Thank you for your help, Palace Master."
Yang Ziqi chose a long-tailed fiery eagle. Qian Qiusui himself had the ability to fly, and Yang Ziqi wanted a flying soul beast as a mount so that he could fly more easily and freely.
Xiao Mu was already familiar with the process, and Yang Ziqi's soul cultivation progress was also very good, so the soul contract was signed smoothly.
"Renxue, do you want a mount?"
When Qian Renxue was becoming more and more jealous, Xiao Mu suddenly said to her.
"Me?" Qian Renxue looked at Xiao Mu in astonishment.
"I...have not rendered any great service to the Soul Palace, and I dare not expect a generous reward from the Palace Master."
Qian Renxue did make some contributions, such as helping the Soul Palace find many owners of their original martial spirits.
But Qian Renxue didn't think that this was enough to deserve a reward.
Sure enough, Xiao Mu said again:
"Your past achievements are indeed lacking, but I have something else for you to do."
"Palace Master, your orders."
Qian Renxue herself didn't realize that there was a bit of a servile quality in her tone.
"I want you to convince Xue Ye to use military force against the Xing Luo Empire."
"The Xingluo Empire?" Qian Renxue's breathing quickened a little. "Did the Xingluo Empire offend the Soul Palace?"
In addition to the people behind the Fighting Spirit Arena, Yu Yuanzhen may also be colluding with the Xingluo Empire.
Although Yu Luomian could not be 100% sure about this, it was enough to have suspicions. As for whether the Xingluo Empire was wronged, it was not important at all.
"Can you do it?" Xiao Mu did not answer Qian Renxue's question, but asked back.
Qian Renxue hesitated for a moment.
Whether or not she could successfully persuade Xue Ye was not the point. Qian Renxue was thinking about how the Spirit Hall would react to this.
Soon, Qian Renxue suddenly realized.
It seemed that he was not only a spy of the Soul Palace, but also the young master of the Spirit Palace. He almost forgot his original identity.
He could completely use the excuse of controlling the military power of the Tiandou Empire to complete this task.
"Palace Master, rest assured. Qian Renxue will do her utmost to complete your mission and will definitely destroy the Xingluo Empire."
"I trust you to do the job. You can choose your mount now."
"Yes, thank you for the reward, Palace Master."
There is no reward without merit, but there is a reward for doing things, so Qian Renxue feels relieved.
After searching around the Wanshou Garden, Qian Renxue chose her favorite target.
"Palace Master, is the Holy Flame Lion okay?"
The Holy Flame Lion possesses the attributes of light and fire, and its appearance is majestic yet cute, which makes Qian Renxue very moved.
"Can."
This Holy Flame Lion is nearly 20,000 years old, and Qian Renxue is not greedy.
Qian Renxue's expression lit up with joy, and she asked excitedly, "What do you need me to do?"
"You don't need to do anything."
A small seal appeared in Xiao Mu's hand.
This small seal is one of the rewards obtained from the side quest, the Soul Beast Summoning Seal.
Xiao Mu used the power of his soul to activate the Soul Beast Summoning Seal, placing a seal on the Holy Flame Lion's soul. He then said to Qian Renxue:
"Put your hand out."
"Huh? Which hand?"
"casual."
Qian Renxue didn't hesitate and stretched out her right hand.
Xiao Mu used the soul beast summoning seal on the palm of Qian Renxue's right hand. Qian Renxue only felt a chill in her palm, and then she had a mysterious sense of the Holy Flame Lion.
"After leaving the mark, the Holy Flame Lion can stay here. You only need to activate the mark to summon it to your side. After spending a certain amount of soul power, you can also send it back."
Qian Renxue looked at the palm of her hand in surprise. It was no different from before, but when she gathered her soul power, a complex pattern emerged, like countless beasts gathered together.
The next moment, the Holy Flame Lion appeared beside her not far away.
Qian Renxue tried to touch the head of the Holy Flame Lion. The Holy Flame Lion, who had originally been dismissive of her, allowed her to touch him and even squinted his eyes in pleasure.
"Thank you, Palace Master. Thank you, Palace Master."
Qian Renxue's eyes were about to melt. The Holy Flame Lion was like a big cat, definitely the best gift she had ever received.
Moreover, she can be summoned and sent back at will, which greatly facilitates her identity as Xue Qinghe.
Xiao Mu was also very satisfied with the effect of the soul beast summoning seal.
Unlike signing a soul contract with a mount, using the soul beast summoning seal is actually a contract between the soul beast and the seal itself.
Unlike becoming a complete mount, the soul beast does not become the owner's personal property, the owner only has the right to use it.
In the future, in addition to the elixir business, the Soul Palace will also be able to do the soul beast business. In addition, there will be an additional elixir business used by soul beasts, which has many benefits.
It will also give the soul masters of Douluo Continent more motivation to fight in the abyss plane and contribute to the Soul Palace.
If they die, the soul beasts will not be greatly affected, nor can they be inherited by their descendants, but will return to the Ten Thousand Beasts Garden.
All rights of interpretation belong to the Soul Palace, it's simply perfect.
