"Actually, I'm quite curious. Who is the great mastermind that thought of sending you, an innate soul power at level 20 and a God-level Martial Soul, to do something like an undercover task? Especially during the age period when your soul power training has the best results?"
"..." Hearing Rayne's playful and curious question, Qian Renxue was speechless.
She really didn't want to answer it.
But finally gave in, because she couldn't stand Rayne constantly poking her cheeks with his finger.
"Stop it already! It's my father, okay?"
'Qian Xunji, huh? Thought so. That guy did look quite ambitious when I met him back then. Although it's the kind without the ability to back it up.'
Rayne mused in his mind.
Qian Xunji always had the ambition of taking over the continent, and having it under the control of Spirit Hall.
This guy was even audacious enough to launch an attack on Sea God Island, without even asking Qian Daoliu's permission.
Although that so-called mission ended in a grand failure, which even earned Sea God Island a cool nickname like Devil's Island!
Well, although it might have been Qian Xunji's initiative, it obviously couldn't be just that.
Most likely, it's something as stupid as getting a certain madwoman's recognition, or something like that.
Since Qian Renxue didn't say the whole reason, Rayne didn't insist on asking about it.
At this time, Qian Renxue hesitantly asked Rayne.
"Say, what exactly do you want from me? Is it something I can give you only after becoming a God?"
Rayne raised his eyebrows.
"What? Is that uncertainty and lack of confidence, that I feel from you? Do you think you can't become a God?" Rayne asked jokingly.
"My grandfather said that I haven't reached the level where I can take Divine Tests. He said that each Divine Tests have a certain risk of death. Unless something unexpected happens, my grandfather will only allow me to start the Divine Tests after I reach level 80."
"Even with my talent and on the premise of focusing on training, reaching level 80 would still take me a lot of time! It will take me at least five to six years, or even more."
Qian Renxue hesitated, then told Rayne about her uncertainties on her ability to take Divine Tests as soon as possible, like he had suggested her.
She is currently at level 62. More than 18 levels of soul power breakthroughs need to be achieved to convince her grandfather to start the Divine Trials.
At this level, breakthrough in each levels require a great amount of time and accumulation. Even improving by two levels per year is considered excellent.
On the premise that she gives it her all and train hard,
Qian Renxue herself is confident in herself to achieve at least four levels of soul power upgrade per year, before the seventh ring.
Even barely three levels per year after level 70. At least before level 80.
"You don't have to worry about that. In about a month, you'll have what it takes to try the Angel God Divine Tests without much problem."
Rayne said, shrugging off Qian Renxue's worries.
Not to mention the fact that, Qian Daoliu will have the means and resources to assist Qian Renxue in faster soul power breakthroughs.
There are also the remaining five soul bones of Angel God Soul Bone Suit, that she still hasn't absorbed yet.
Qian Daoliu will definitely give those soul bones to Qian Renxue. After all, those soul bones are originally meant for the authentic inheritor of Angel God.
Those soul bones alone should give her about five or six levels of soul power upgrade.
And, most importantly,
In about a month, Qian Renxue, along with six others, will gain memories from the future timeline (third simulated life).
As someone who had already achieved godhood once, it shouldn't be hard for Qian Renxue to start Angel God Tests much earlier.
Even the likes of Tang San started taking Sea God Tests when he was around level sixties.
There is no reason why a regressor Qian Renxue cannot achieve the same, or even better.
Although he said that, it's not like Rayne won't provide any help to her.
Unlike with the members of Ouroboros Tower or other friends and acquaintances, Qian Renxue has a far closer relationship with him.
He doesn't mind being generous, or in this case, over generous!
Rayne took out an exquisite and beautiful ring with golden wing pattern, from his Gate of Ashburn.
He handed it to Qian Renxue, who subconsciously received it.
She suddenly reacted and was surprised.
"What is this...?"
"It's a high-level storage soul guide. I've put some decent treasures in it, which should be of considerable help to your Divine Tests. You should be able to know how to use those things in a month."
"Although it was an unnecessary mission, which was a waste of your talent. But what you've accomplished isn't worthless."
"Despite being undercover, you've contributed a lot for the betterment of this rotten empire. Your actions must have definitely helped a lot of people."
"I will acknowledge your efforts and deeds. Consider it a reward from me, for your years of hard work." Rayne said in a soft and light tone.
"This... I..." Qian Renxue felt a bit dazed and confused. For a moment, she didn't know what to say or how to react.
As she stared at him, she felt a strange emotion rising within her.
"... Thank you."
Finally, it turned into words of simple gratitude.
...
After Qian Renxue's matter was settled, Rayne removed the time enchantment he had placed on Heaven Dou City.
Everything resumed as it was before the time stop.
Rayne was seen standing with Xue Qinghe, with his arm over her shoulder.
The trio of Sylvia, Tang Yuehua and Xue Ke felt something strange. Although nothing seems to be different from before. Something about this didn't feel the same.
Although Xue Qinghe's body movements looked a bit stiff and awkward, because of Rayne putting his arm around her.
She didn't seem as nervous or resistant as before.
This change was particularly noticed by Tang Yuehua, who has considerable experience in observing and evaluation the etiquette and temperaments of others.
Tang Yuehua subconsciously felt that she seems to have missed a lot of things.
It just made no sense to her that the attitude and mood of Xue Qinghe changed so quickly, and so inexplicably.
Xue Qinghe, or Qian Renxue, looked to the side where Snake Lance Douluo She Long and Porcupinefish Douluo Ci Xue were supposed to be kneeling unconscious.
Then she looked at an inconspicuous black glass bead in her hand.
"..." She felt kind of speechless.
This guy Rayne had stuffed her unconscious Titled Douluo guards into a confined space within this black glass bead.
And according to him, those two can be released by someone just crushing the glass bead.
After a bit of chattering, a mentally tired Xue Qinghe left with a reluctant Xue Ke.
"Young master Rayne, would you like to accompany me for a cup of tea at Moon Pavilion?" Tang Yuehua asked with an elegant smile.
"Sorry, I already have an appointment. I'll take up on your offer next time." Rayne politely refused.
"That's unfortunate. I won't be taking up your time. I'll be sure to prepare good tea for you next time."
Tang Yuehua was a bit disappointed, but she still smiled and bid farewell, as she returned to Moon Pavilion.
As he watched Tang Yuehua return to Moon Pavilion, he turned to his sister and asked.
"Sister, shall we head back now?"
Sylvia silently looked at Rayne for a moment.
"??" Rayne was a bit confused as to why she was staring at him like this.
"Rayne, do you not like Lady Tang Yuehua?" Sylvia suddenly asked.
"Hm? Why do you ask that?"
"You always seem to maintain a certain distance from her. Which is very rare for a scumbag like you. Is she not your type?"
Looking at the blank expression on his sister's face as she called him a scumbag, Rayne felt somewhat wronged.
Not only that, he also seems to have got the title of Playboy, at some point.
The only women he interacted and flirted with are those that already had relationship with him in his past lives.
Such as Gu Shuiying (Water Dragon King), Gu Huoling (Fire Dragon King), Shui Bing'er, Shui Yue'er, and Huo Wu, whom he not only knew in his past life, but also grew up with in two lives. Then Ye Lingling and Ah Yin.
Except for Ah Yin, all others were his wives in his past life.
His so-called flirting and philandering had always been limited to these women.
But then again, it's not like he can deny these titles put on him.
After all, they are kind of justified.
Anyway,
"Sister, I don't really dislike Tang Yuehua. I mean, she is a very pretty and mature woman. If anything, she is quite close to my preference. Although my preference is not limited to it, I'm a milf person." Rayne said with a smile.
"Pervert..." Sylvia muttered.
Rayne ignored it and continued.
"Although that is the case, there isn't much possibility between me and Tang Yuehua."
"Why?" Sylvia asked in a confused tone.
This is the first time she is hearing a sense of uncertainty from her ever-confident brother.
He always gives her a feeling of 'I can do anything'!
"Well, for starters, I killed one of her beloved brothers. I killed him like a pathetic dog, in cold blood." Rayne said in a bored tone.
"Eh? You killed Lady Yuehua's elder brother?!" Sylvia was confused.
"Sister, I'm talking about that dead dog Tang Hao."
"Lady Yuehua is Tang Hao's sister?!" Sylvia looked stunned.
She never expected Tang Yuehua to be Tang Hao's sister, and to be from Clear Sky School.
At the same time, she understood why Rayne kept a distance from Tang Yuehua, despite the other party being so beautiful.
It seems he is trying to avoid unnecessary drama for himself.
...
After Rayne used his spatial transportation ability to send his sister to his home in Sky Water City.
He went to check up on his mother Shui Xin'er.
Previously, his mother Shui Xin'er was in seclusion, condensing her second soul core, which is the Spiritual Soul Core, after reaching level 89.
In fact, because of the full sacrifice from the 500,000-year-old Holy Dragon-Scaled Archerfish as her eighth soul ring, as well as the two arm soul bones of 500,000-year-old level.
Shui Xin'er should've reached level 90,almost six years ago.
However, because Rayne had her train in a unique soul power cultivation technique, as well as temper her body and mental strength in preparation for the second soul core at level 90.
And because Shui Xin'er wasn't a very strong soul master to begin with, it took about six years to meet the requirements layed out by Rayne.
...
Almost instantly, Rayne appeared in the top most realms of the 203 realms of Ouroboros Tower.
In addition to Shui Xin'er, Gu Huoling is also in seclusion in one of these realms.
Gu Shuiying was also in seclusion, but she ended it in about a week ago, as she had achieved the results she wanted.
The Water Dragon King, Gu Shuiying was always the most talented among the Nine Dragon Kings. So it wasn't very surprising that she ended her training earlier than Gu Huoling.
In fact, currently there is also Ah Yin, who is using the diluted essence left on her by Rayne, to try and reach level 90.
She was having a hard time resisting the urge to refine all the essence sealed with her.
So, she also started her seclusion today.
She is currently in the realm called Floral Paradise.
Because Ah Yin is originally the Blue Silver Empress, the special realm, Floral Paradise, is a literal paradise to her, where her training speed is boosted by almost a hundred times.
Shui Xin'er is also training in this realm, since she is also a plant type soul master.
Despite being weakened by thousands of times, the essence from Rayne, a zenith lifeform, brought massive benefits to Ah Yin.
The most evident benefit is her evolution of bloodline, as a race. At the moment, she is undergoing a series of constant evolution.
And the enormous amount of extremely pure vitality and soul power.
Either way, once Ah Yin refines all that essence energy, she'd have ascended as a lifeform.
Becoming a Titled Douluo should be the least of her concerns.
With his status as the creator of Ouroboros Tower, Rayne is easily capable of surveying every dimension within it, even without using his spatial abilities.
After peering into the Floral Paradise dimension and confirming Ah Yin's current status, Rayne moved on to check on his mother.
If his calculations aren't wrong, it should be about time she had finished condensing her second soul core.
