Chapter 167 Qian Daoliu: The Spoiled Granddaughter is Gone…
Qian Renxue went back to the Offering Hall first; she wanted to tell her grandfather the good news.
Jiang Nian was still savoring the words he had just spoken.
Perhaps the little golden retriever really wouldn't believe that he and Hu Liena were innocent?
Watching the white mouse rolling around in the field, he squatted down and scratched its belly; the mouse's head was grinning so hard it almost turned into a cat.
A Yin's leaves swayed slightly, as if greeting him.
Jiang Nian flicked her leaves with his fingers; she seemed shy and flung them back, a faint blue light emanating from her.
After observing for a while, Jiang Nian got up and left, not wanting to disturb the mouse and the plant making friends.
Offering Hall.
Qian Renxue swayed her high ponytail, the ends of her golden hair shimmering; her lively and adorable appearance made the old man in the center of the hall smile.
"Little Xue, what brings you to see Grandpa?" Qian Daoliu observed her excited expression and knew without guessing that she had come to show off.
But he still asked.
"Grandpa, I'm just going home, why would I be looking for you?" Qian Renxue rolled her eyes, pouted, and brushed past Qian Daoliu, her hands behind her back as she walked away.
Old Deng's smile froze, and for a moment he wondered if he had misheard.
The little golden retriever who used to love to snuggle in his arms and complain was gone; it seemed she could only be seen with other men.
Another piece of Qian Daoliu's heart broke, but he was used to it and could adjust his emotions at any time.
"Sigh... a girl should get married when she grows up..."
Qian Daoliu looked up into the distance, a trace of reluctance flashing in his eyes.
Counting the time, the little golden retriever's Angel Nine Trials were coming soon.
At that time, he might have to say goodbye to his beloved granddaughter forever.
As the High Priest of the Angel God, he knew what he would have to sacrifice in the future.
But for Xiaoxue's path to godhood, what did death matter?
Qian Daoliu gathered a ray of sunlight, a relieved smile on his face.
With that kid around, no matter how reckless she was, he didn't need to worry too much.
The rest was up to fate.
Early autumn, the autumn wind was chilly.
Jiang Nian and Qian Renxue left the Spirit Hall, followed by Elders Yue Guan and Gui Mei.
As for whether there were others in the shadows, he wasn't sure.
"Little Jiang, are you sure I can absorb a 100,000-year spirit ring?" Qian Renxue's face showed some uncertainty.
"Of course, your physical condition should be almost enough."
Jiang Nian squeezed her arm, which was as smooth and white as a jade lotus.
Qian Renxue softly hummed in agreement, also unable to help but look forward to the moment she broke through to the Soul Saint realm.
At that time, she could go back and begin the Nine Trials of the Angel.
"Little Jiang, if possible, I suggest you choose the Sea God, it's quite good."
"Don't cry when I surpass you."
The little golden retriever waved her fist, a smile playing on her lips.
Jiang Nian smiled without saying a word, looking into her eyes as he considered a 100,000-year-old Light Soul Beast.
If he couldn't find one, he would have to go back for the Angel God Trial.
He remembered there should be a God-given Soul Ring.
That would save him the trouble of finding a high-age Soul Beast.
After all, there were only so many 100,000-year-old Soul Beasts on the continent.
Arriving at the Star Dou Great Forest, Jiang Nian and Qian Renxue searched for a suitable Soul Beast.
Light attribute was rare enough, let alone a 100,000-year-old one; who knew how many days it would take to find one.
Two months passed in the blink of an eye.
Jiang Nian looked at the Light God Tiger, which was around 80,000 years old, and considered whether to let it go.
"Awoo~"
The Light God Tiger sensed that Jiang Nian didn't have much killing intent and quickly let out two pitiful cries.
"Little Jiang, how about this one?"
"A hundred thousand years is really hard to find…"
Qian Renxue sighed. They'd been searching from autumn to winter.
So far, the only light-attribute soul beast they'd found was this one with a slightly higher age.
The others were either fifty thousand or sixty thousand years old.
"Should we keep looking?"
Jiang Nian was unwilling to give up. Although the reward for Xiaoxue completing the divine trial might increase the age of her soul ring, a hundred thousand years from the start would definitely be best.
"Alright, you've been busy for me for so many days. I guess our luck isn't good."
Qian Renxue sighed softly, looking at the Light Divine Tiger that Jiang Nian had severely injured, and suddenly drew her Angel Sword.
"Awooo!!!"
The Light Divine Tiger cried out, its eyes pleading as it looked at Jiang Nian.
It understood that the man before it didn't have much killing intent, only deep disappointment.
It was also thankful that it wasn't even a hundred thousand years old.
Jiang Nian stared into Qian Renxue's eyes and finally relented.
Eighty thousand it is.
The Angel Divine Trial should be able to increase it to a hundred thousand years by then.
"Woof woof!" The Light Tiger rolled over on its back, its wounds causing it excruciating pain, but it had no choice but to do this to survive.
"Pleading is useless!"
Qian Renxue slashed its head with her sword, while Jiang Nian watched silently.
If he had a better option, he probably would have spared the spirit beast.
Unfortunately, both of them were simply unlucky.
The Light Tiger glanced at Jiang Nian, suddenly feeling a pang of sadness.
It clearly didn't want to kill itself, yet it was because of a woman...
*Crack!*
Qian Renxue finished off the spirit beast with a single sword strike, and slowly, a jet-black spirit ring appeared.
Guided by her spirit power, she began to absorb it.
Jiang Nian stood guard beside her, silently watching the Light Tiger's body.
His last two spirit rings required either the light or darkness attribute.
Without undergoing a divine trial, he didn't know if he could find them on his own.
The temperature plummeted in the dark night, so Jiang Nian lit a campfire to add some warmth.
After an unknown amount of time, Qian Renxue finished absorbing the spirit rings.
"Phew~ Finally, it's a success."
"Little Jiang, don't blame yourself too much. If it weren't for you, I might have only absorbed for 60,000 years at most."
"I'm still very satisfied with how it is now."
Jiang Nian shook his head and chuckled, without explaining further.
The bright campfire shone on their faces. Qian Renxue leaned closer to his body, her head slowly resting on his.
The crackling of the matches offered them a bit of comfort in the cold night.
Qian Renxue glanced at Jiang Nian's Adam's apple, then his chin, lips, nose...
She looked down and counted on her fingers, feeling that the time should be almost up.
At that time, she would... offer herself to him?
Oh no!
It should be that she would let this guy get clean and wait for her to harvest him!
Jiang Nian glanced at the silly-looking little golden retriever, wondering what mischievous thoughts were going through his mind. His fair face was flushed red, and his pink ears trembled, whether from the wind or the warmth of the flames, it was hard to tell.
Jiang Nian casually picked up a stick and nudged the pile of matches, then slowly a small hand slipped inside his clothes.
It started moving upwards, then took a sudden turn.
"Xiao Xue, what are you doing?!"
