Chapter 237: Qian Xunji's Ambition and Qian Daoliu's Red Line
After panting for a moment, feeling that it was enough, Yu Xiaogang gradually regained his calm.
He did not speak, just stayed there quietly.
"Yu Xiaogang, son of Thunder Douluo Yu Yuanzhen of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, Rank 1 Innate Soul Power, Martial Soul initially judged as a malicious mutation."
"Yet unexpectedly, you reached Rank 10 early and obtained an unprecedented Thousand-Year First Soul Ring."
"Afterwards, just like a Genius with Innate Full Soul Power, your Soul Power Rank rose rapidly, and the Soul Rings you obtained far exceeded the current optimal Soul Ring configuration of the Douluo Continent."
"Some say that your Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect has found some secret method, and others say that there is a problem with your Martial Soul, perhaps like those fallen Soul Masters, you have relied on some unspeakable means to advance so quickly."
"So, Yu Xiaogang, what exactly is your situation!"
No joy or anger could be heard in Qian Xunji's voice, but his majesty was fully displayed.
When he finished speaking, the scepter in his hand, symbolizing the Pope, struck the ground heavily, producing a muffled sound that echoed in the room.
Listening to Qian Xunji's words, Yu Xiaogang sneered in his heart.
"Is this an attempt to learn my secret, so you're pulling this on me?"
First, he used the strength of a Titled Douluo to suppress him, and just when he finally let go and Yu Xiaogang was relaxing, he suddenly applied pressure with words again.
With this routine, a normal twelve-year-old child would probably end up in a state where they would answer whatever Qian Xunji asked.
When the Sect's secret was leaked, Qian Xunji could completely tell their Sect that it was their Young Sect Master who had voluntarily revealed it.
It was just a pity that he was not a normal twelve-year-old child.
"I am afraid I cannot answer these."
Yu Xiaogang raised his "pale" cheeks and said.
"Presumptuous!"
Qian Xunji shouted angrily, attempting to apply pressure again.
However, Yu Xiaogang still kept that expression of refusing to answer, which made Qian Xunji somewhat annoyed.
"Damn it, how did he manage to go from Rank 30 to Rank 42 in a few months, and that guy Yu Yuanzhen, how did he suddenly Breakthrough to a Peak Douluo?"
Qian Xunji bit his lip, his heart full of curiosity about the secrets that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect had shown in recent years.
The secret medicine that could increase the age of a Soul Ring, and now treasures that allowed the father and son Yu Xiaogang and Yu Yuanzhen, as well as the Grand Elder of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, to Breakthrough to Titled Douluo.
According to Yu Yuanzhen, they had obtained several Soul Bones.
But Qian Xunji scoffed at this explanation.
Soul Bones could indeed increase a person's Soul Power Rank, but the problem was that the Ranks of all three people—Yu Yuanzhen, Yu Xiaogang, and the Grand Elder—had improved.
What, was it suggesting that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect could obtain precious Soul Bones in batches?
And looking at the magnitude of the three's improvements, was it not several pieces per person?
Only a fool would believe such a thing!
Therefore, Qian Xunji was certain that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect had other secrets.
Honestly, Qian Xunji had wanted to send people to capture Yu Xiaogang several times, forcing the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect to hand over their secrets.
But the beating Yu Yuanzhen gave him earlier made Qian Xunji understand that he could not do this.
The reason Yu Yuanzhen showed his strength to him was to tell him not to have those crooked thoughts.
Of course, besides that, it was also because of his father.
The commotion of Yu Yuanzhen beating him naturally attracted the attention of his father, Qian Daoliu, so after beating him, Yu Yuanzhen entered the Elder Hall and had a discussion with his father.
Qian Xunji did not know exactly what they discussed, but afterwards, Qian Xunji was called to the Elder Hall by his father.
"If you want to know the secrets of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, use legitimate methods to obtain them; you are not allowed to use those underhanded tactics."
"On the premise that they do not actively offend you, you are also not allowed to harm Yu Xiaogang, otherwise, I will not care about you!"
Qian Daoliu's words made Qian Xunji clench his fists.
Regarding his father, Qian Xunji had actually always been somewhat dissatisfied.
Clearly possessing the strength to be invincible on the Douluo Continent, yet he was willing to shrink into a small Elder Hall.
Yes, Qian Xunji knew his father was a loyal believer of their God Ancestor, and it was normal to choose to serve by the God Ancestor's side day and night.
But why, why was his father unwilling to support him in expanding the Spirit Hall, annexing the Star Luo Empire and Heaven Dou Empire in the future, and bringing the entire Douluo Continent under the control of their Qian family?
Once the Spirit Hall truly unified the Douluo Continent, wouldn't it be even more convenient for them to spread the faith of their God Ancestor?
And now, his father forbade him from harming Yu Xiaogang, saying that if he wanted to know their secrets, he should use legitimate methods to obtain them.
"Father, don't you think you are sometimes too rigid?"
Qian Xunji couldn't help but ask his father.
"Rigid?"
"Do you think my style of doing things, upright and clear about right and wrong, is rigid?"
"No wonder you have never been able to unleash the true power of the Martial Soul inherited from the God Ancestor."
"How could the light that symbolizes holiness, justice, and glory ever be willing to submit to your heart, which is full of dark schemes and selfish ambition?"
Qian Daoliu said with a disappointed look.
"Screw his holiness and justice, I am dark, and I have ambition."
"I not only want to scheme, but I also want to use such power to achieve unprecedented accomplishments and push the Spirit Hall to an unprecedented Peak!"
Qian Xunji stared into his father's eyes and said without yielding in the slightest.
"... Jier, if you continue like this, you will embark on a road of no return, and you will cast a shadow over the long-standing reputation of the Spirit Hall."
Looking at his son's eyes, tainted with desire and anger, Qian Daoliu was silent for a moment, and finally, his attitude softened a little.
"That is still better than choosing the same path as you, Father, waiting to spend the rest of my Life in the Elder Hall until Life ends."
"After death, in the records of the Spirit Hall, only a line of notes like 'Former Pope Qian Xunji' would be left."
Qian Xunji said.
Born in the Qian family, possessing a certain amount of talent, Qian Xunji did not want to live a Life that one could see the end of at a glance like his father.
He wanted to achieve an accomplishment that belonged uniquely to himself, just like their God Ancestor.
"... I will not support you, and neither will the other High Priests."
Without the Elder Hall, although the Spirit Hall would still be the number one force on the Douluo Continent, it would directly drop from its original super-standard level to a very strong, but limited, level.
"Even if I am killed by someone?"
Qian Xunji asked, unwilling to give up.
"If the path you choose is one that deviates from the beliefs of the God Ancestor, then, yes."
Qian Daoliu turned around, with his back to Qian Xunji.
There were few people on the Douluo Continent who could kill Qian Xunji now, and Yu Yuanzhen was one of them.
Qian Xunji would not provoke others, and the only person he would provoke was Yu Yuanzhen.
Therefore, Qian Daoliu invited Yu Yuanzhen to enter the Elder Hall, confirmed the other party's bottom line, and then called Qian Xunji over to draw a red line for him.
"... Understood, then Father, just watch."
Qian Xunji, having received his father's definite answer, was unwilling in his heart, but he understood that his father was serious and that he could really do what he said.
After obtaining the definite standard, Qian Xunji left the Elder Hall. Before leaving, Qian Daoliu ultimately could not help but give a final warning:
"Jier, don't go too far, otherwise you will regret it!"
Qian Xunji paused for a moment, then left without looking back.
The door closed, leaving only the figure of Qian Daoliu standing quietly in front of the statue of the Angel God, silently reciting chants.
