153: Chapter 153 Su Ling Returns Home! Qian Renxue's Marriage?

Four days later, Su Ling and his group arrived in the Star Dou Great Forest!

Nearly four years had passed since the last Spirit Master tournament, and Su Ling was now over twenty-four years old.

There was still over a year left until the five-year reunion of Tang San and the others in the original novel.

Based on this timeline, Bibi Dong's soul-hunting operation would begin soon.

Therefore, the first stop for Su Ling after leaving Slaughter City was the Star Dou Great Forest to pick up Xiao Wu.

Flying over the Star Dou Great Forest, Su Ling quickly arrived in the airspace above the Lake of Life.

Su Ling looked down and immediately saw the Titan Giant Ape, Er Ming, beside the Lake of Life, while Da Ming was still hidden in the water.

Su Ling searched around but found that Xiao Wu did not seem to be there.

Su Ling descended slowly, which attracted the attention of Da Ming and Er Ming.

"Su Ling has come," Er Ming said.

"He seems different from before; there is an extra bit of special Killing Intent on him."

"Da Ming, Er Ming, where is Xiao Wu?" Su Ling asked.

"Big Sister Xiao Wu reached level sixty eight months ago. After condensing her sixth spirit ring, she couldn't wait to go out, saying she wanted to find you," Da Ming said.

"She Cultivated that quickly?" Su Ling exclaimed. It seemed that the Nine-Grade Blood Dragon Ginseng was even better than imagined.

"Da Ming, Er Ming, strong human Spirit Masters might come looking for you in anywhere from six months to a year. You must be careful. Well, it would be best to hide some powerful Spirit Beasts under the Lake of Life to help you."

At this time, the Lake of Life was completely different from before. Da Ming and Er Ming had followed Su Ling's requirements and gathered no less than two hundred powerful Spirit Beasts within a radius of several kilometers.

Each Spirit Beast had at least fifty thousand years of cultivation.

"Su Ling, don't worry. We are not that weak. Besides, this time we have help. Xiao Yue, come out!" Da Ming shouted.

A giant wolf, six or seven meters long, with silver and gray fur, immediately walked out of the jungle by the Lake of Life.

At first, Su Ling had only observed the Lake of Life simply and had not noticed this Spirit Beast.

This was not a 100,000-year Spirit Beast, but it seemed to be close.

"Su Ling, this is Xiao Yue. It saw you when you killed the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger," Da Ming said.

"Hello, human. I am the Howling Moon Heavenly Wolf. You can call me Xiao Yue. Thank you for killing the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger."

A Spirit Beast of less than 100,000 years could actually speak human language.

"You don't have to be surprised. I possess the royal Bloodline of the Heavenly Wolf clan. I could already speak when I was fifty thousand years old," Xiao Yue explained immediately.

Su Ling said, "No need to thank me. I was just killing the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger to obtain a spirit ring anyway."

"No... I still have to thank you."

"That Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger devoured many of our Heavenly Wolf clan members before. That day, I wanted to retaliate against it. Fortunately, you beat me to it. If I had led the Heavenly Wolf clan to kill the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger, I and the members of the Heavenly Wolf clan behind me might have already ceased to exist," Xiao Yue said.

"Su Ling, although Xiao Yue is only over ninety-nine thousand years old, its combat strength is already at the 100,000-year level, probably comparable to a Titled Douluo of your humans around level ninety-three or ninety-four."

"Big Brother Da Ming, don't make fun of me. My strength is nothing in front of the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger," Xiao Yue said.

It had witnessed that battle with its own eyes and had promptly let the wolf pack behind it retreat.

"Su Ling, to thank us, after we explained the situation, Xiao Yue brought six Heavenly Wolves over fifty thousand years old to live by the Lake of Life."

"Actually, it's quite nice here. My clan and I are willing to live here, but it's a pity that Big Sister Xiao Wu has left. It would be much more fun if she were here," Xiao Yue said with some regret.

"Are you just one thousand years away?" Su Ling asked.

"Yes!" Xiao Yue nodded.

"Take this and see if it can help you advance." Su Ling took out a ten-thousand-year medicinal herb from the System space, the kind that could strengthen the foundation and improve Soul Power.

"Ten-thousand-year?" Seeing this herb, Xiao Yue's eyes lit up.

"This... is this for me?"

"Take it. I'm not sure if it will be useful to you," Su Ling said.

"Useful! Very useful! I think I should be able to reach 100,000 years," Xiao Yue said.

"Then eat it. Once you reach 100,000 years, you can better protect this place."

"Da Ming, Er Ming, I'll be going first. I'll go back and reunite with Xiao Wu as soon as possible," Su Ling said.

"Okay, Su Ling, go ahead. Remember to protect Big Sister Xiao Wu," Da Ming and Er Ming said in unison.

"No problem." Su Ling flashed, a pair of wings condensed behind him, and he quickly disappeared into the sky above the Lake of Life.

Xiao Yue looked at the herb in front of her. In fact, some medicinal herbs grew in the lair of the Heavenly Wolf clan, but most were only a thousand years old, and the highest was no more than five thousand years.

These herbs were planted by herself, but it was difficult to plant them with this body.

Plus, she didn't know how to farm; the higher the grade of the herb, the higher the requirements for planting.

Therefore, the survival rate of the herbs she planted was not high, and they often died or withered.

As a result, after all these years, she had never obtained a ten-thousand-year herb.

"Big Brother Da Ming, Big Brother Er Ming, this human named Su Ling is indeed as good as Big Sister Xiao Wu said."

"After I eat this herb, I have a chance to advance to 100,000 years, but I have to take it back to our Heavenly Wolf clan's territory to consume it. There is a special advancement method for our Heavenly Wolf clan there, and with this ten-thousand-year herb, I think it should be enough."

"Go!" Da Ming said!

After Su Ling left, he flew at high speed, preparing to rendezvous with Liu Erlong and Hu Liena who were outside.

What Su Ling didn't know was that because of his appearance, he had killed the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger in advance and brought out a ten-thousand-year herb, allowing a Spirit Beast that might have died in the mouth of the Dark Demonic Evil God Tiger to survive and have the chance to advance to 100,000 years.

...

Seven days later! Su Ling finally returned to Heaven Dou City with Liu Erlong and Hu Liena.

"Su Ling, you go back first. I'll go to the academy to check," Liu Erlong said.

"Okay!" Su Ling nodded.

"Let's go, Nana, let's go back," Su Ling said.

By now, Hu Liena knew the number of women around Su Ling was more than one, but what could she do?

If it were in the past, she certainly wouldn't have had a story with Su Ling, but now she couldn't leave Su Ling and was willing to accept everything around him.

"Welcome back, Marquis of Divine Arrows," the two guards saluted immediately.

Su Ling casually gave them two bags of gold coins. The bags weren't big, but they contained at least a hundred gold coins, which was a reward.

"Many thanks, Marquis!"

As the two entered the mansion, boom...

As soon as the door opened, they heard the sound of fighting. Wasn't that Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu fighting?

Having not seen them for so long, both Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing had grown taller. At this time, everyone from the Shrek lineage had reached adulthood.

The three beauties were all nineteen years old, their heights had all reached over 1.7 meters, and their figures were perfect, especially Ning Rongrong, who was watching the battle not far away.

At this moment, she was no longer the Ning Rongrong from Shrek Academy.

Especially after consuming the immortal herb, her goddess comprehensive value had increased, so she was naturally a bit different.

Looking at Jiang Zhu, who had merged with the Tear of Life, the whole person looked more and more noble, and her temperament was getting better and better.

"Brother Su, Brother Su is back."

It was Ning Rongrong who saw Su Ling first. Su Ling also smiled and nodded at Ning Rongrong; after all, among these women, Ning Rongrong was the one he had seen the least recently.

"Nana, in front of everyone, you don't need to wear the thousand illusion mask," Su Ling said.

Every woman here was one of his own; there was no need for Hu Liena to hide.

Knowing that Su Ling was back, Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu both ended the battle at the same time and then gathered around.

Zhu Zhuqing, Zhu Zhuxin, Xiao Wu, Ning Rongrong, Jiang Zhu, and Yang Qingyu were there. As for Feng Yuer, she wasn't there at the moment; she must have gone to the academy. Su Ling had also given Xiao Wu the address in Heaven Dou City before he left last time.

"Hey, Brother Su, why did this Hu Liena come back with you?"

"Brother Su, you are really amazing, you even brought Hu Liena back."

The women gathered around, but Xiao Wu took a step back. After all, Hu Liena was a person from Spirit Hall and was also Bibi Dong's Disciple. A trace of hostility flashed in her eyes when she looked at Hu Liena.

Su Ling said, "Nana is now Family with us too. Everyone, don't worry, you don't need to worry about Nana's identity as a member of Spirit Hall."

After saying this, Su Ling added, "Nana, you should put on the thousand illusion mask. It's enough that everyone knows."

"Okay!" Hu Liena put the mask back on and changed back to her previous appearance.

"Brother Su, why have you not been home? I come a few times every month, but I never met you when you returned, really."

Perhaps it had been too long since they had seen each other, Ning Rongrong directly hugged Su Ling tightly.

"Isn't this seeing me now? Next time we go out, we will go together," Su Ling said.

"By the way, how is the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School now?"

Ning Rongrong said, "It's quite good, everything is relatively peaceful."

"Well, that's good!" Su Ling said.

"Zhu Xin, Zhuqing, it looks like you have reached level sixty," Su Ling looked at Zhu Zhuqing and Zhu Zhuxin again.

"Yes, I reached level sixty more than a month ago. My sister reached level sixty three months ago. Also, Big Sister Yuer reached level sixty ten days ago," Zhu Zhuqing said.

"I also reached level sixty," Ning Rongrong also said.

"Good, very good."

"What about you, Jiang Zhu?" Su Ling asked.

"I have reached level sixty-four!" Jiang Zhu said with a face full of pride. She had now become the one with the highest Soul Power among the women.

"Jiang Zhu, congratulations to you," Su Ling smiled and said.

Jiang Zhu nodded and said, "This is all thanks to you, Brother Su."

"What about you, Qingyu?" Su Ling continued to ask.

Yang Qingyu said, "I have reached level fifty-seven. It's still a long way from level sixty."

Su Ling said, "Qingyu, we are going for training this time. You can go and bring Xiangxiang over, and we will go together then."

"Okay, I can bring Xiangxiang, then I will go immediately," Yang Qingyu said.

"No need to be in such a hurry, let's leave tomorrow," Su Ling said.

"Okay, I will leave early tomorrow morning," Yang Qingyu said.

Finally, Su Ling walked to Xiao Wu's side.

"Brother Su!"

"Xiao Wu, you look like you've made great progress," Su Ling said in a low voice.

"Yes, I have reached level sixty-three now," Xiao Wu said.

"Very good!" Su Ling said.

Looking over, in this courtyard, except for Su Ling, they were all women, each more beautiful than the last.

"Brother Su, where exactly are we going for training?" Ning Rongrong asked curiously.

Su Ling said, "You will know when we leave. Now you just need to know that we are going on a long journey this time."

"Oh!" Ning Rongrong said.

"Brother Su, there is one thing you might not know. Your sworn brother is getting married," Zhu Zhuxin said.

Hearing that Qian Renxue was getting married, Su Ling was a little surprised.

"Getting married? This is a good thing. Who is he marrying?" Su Ling asked.

"Brother Su, you know this person. It is Ye Lingling from the Begonia Family! It was a marriage decreed by Emperor Xue Ye himself," Zhu Zhuxin said.

"Ye Lingling?"

"How is it her!"

This was really too unexpected, completely beyond Su Ling's expectations.

After all, Ye Lingling was a goddess he had identified, and he was also going to take her for training this time. After all, Ye Lingling's favorability had already reached ninety-four points.

"What is going on?" Su Ling asked.

Zhu Zhuxin said, "Brother Su, actually this is all caused by your help, which further improved Ye Lingling's talent, and she also became more beautiful and moving."

"So Ye Lingling was helped by Brother Su," Ning Rongrong made a sudden realization.

"Brother Su, that's how it is."

"The Crown Prince is not young anymore. The court and the public are all urging him. One day, Ye Lingling entered the palace to assist in treatment and was spotted by Emperor Xue Ye at a glance."

"This Ye Lingling was originally a member of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy team. Logically, Emperor Xue Ye should have seen her. However, Ye Lingling has changed a lot in the past two years. Subsequently, Xue Ye inquired about Ye Lingling's situation."

"A Spirit King under twenty-five years old, possessing the Nine-Heart Begonia Spirit. After Emperor Xue Ye knew her age and existing Soul Power, he issued a decree to grant the marriage shortly after."

"Well... counting the wedding time, it seems to be in three months!"

Ning Rongrong's information was much more than others.

Su Ling was speechless. This also allowed him to inadvertently promote the two of them.

Fortunately, Qian Renxue was a woman and was also an object he would conquer in the future. And so what if she married? In the end, wouldn't she be his?

"I see! Then we might not be able to wait for that day," Su Ling said.

Zhu Zhuxin, Zhu Zhuqing, and Jiang Zhu all looked at Su Ling with confusion. Was Su Ling going to give up on Ye Lingling?

According to common sense, this was somewhat impossible, and they also knew that Ye Lingling also liked Su Ling.

"Brother Su, the information I got yesterday has not spread yet. That Ye Lingling seems dissatisfied with this wedding, so she seems to have secretly left Heaven Dou City. No one knows where she went," Ning Rongrong said.

This plot, Su Ling always felt very familiar.

Ye Lingling must have escaped the marriage. She didn't know that Qian Renxue was also a woman. If she knew, it might not be the case. Even if she really married, it would just be a disguise.

However, Su Ling suddenly thought of another possibility.

Could this Ye Lingling have been deliberately taken away by Qian Renxue, making people think that Ye Lingling escaped the marriage, but in fact, she was the one who did it?

After all, with one more person around, whether in the mansion or outside, he would have to pretend more.

No, I have to ask Qian Renxue tonight.

He looked at the System's Qian Renxue panel; the favorability was only eighty-four.

Not enough, this is not enough at all. I must quickly brush it to over ninety, and then have a good talk with her. Of course, this must be talked about with her identity as Qian Renxue, not Xue Qinghe.

After all, this time Su Ling was going to take away all the goddesses for training, and temporarily did not need Qian Renxue's protection. Even if Qian Renxue had the intention to silence him, Su Ling had no worries.

In fact, Su Ling also believed in Qian Renxue's wisdom and should not choose the worst strategy.

And as long as Su Ling brings the goddesses back from Sea God Island, by that time, all the goddesses should have enough self-protection power.
