Chapter 579: Qian Dao Liu's Rage, The Next Yu Xiaogang_1

Xu Ran held the delicate body of Qian Renxue, and together they fell back onto the sofa in front of them.

Qian Renxue's golden hair spread out, her eyes hazy as she looked at Xu Ran's handsome figure without knowing what to feel. Before she met Xu Ran, she had great ambitions—she wanted to control the Martial Soul Hall, unify the Continent, and even aspired to become the first god in a thousand years.

But after meeting Xu Ran, all that she had steadfastly pursued seemed to have lost its meaning. Being happily together with Xu Ran was the most important thing for her.

She didn't care about the Martial Soul Hall, her "Cultivation Level," or whether she could become a god; all she cared about was whether she could be with Xu Ran forever.

"Xue'er, you're so beautiful. In my heart, you are the most beautiful woman, incomparable to anyone else," Xu Ran said, looking tenderly at Qian Renxue lying on the sofa with her hair scattered around her, unable to help himself from speaking.

Such a tender and enchanting Qian Renxue, only he could appreciate her like this under the heavens.

He would become the strongest on the Continent, the strongest in the Divine Realm, and might even venture into the endless cosmos. Only he deserved such a wonderful person; no one else was worthy.

"Really? Then what about Xiaowu and Zhu Zhuqing? It seems to me that you like them a bit more," Qian Renxue felt sweetness in her heart as she listened to Xu Ran's sweet nothings. It felt like her heart was melting. Even though she knew that what Xu Ran was saying were just coquettish endearments that weren't serious, she was still very happy. Although they might not be true, she liked to hear them.

"That's not true. You all hold the same place in my heart. Xiaowu has her own charm, and Zhu Qing has her beauty as well. But at this moment, in my eyes, you are my little angel," Xu Ran pinched the baby fat on Qian Renxue's cheek.

Xu Ran was a man of universal love, but not one of partiality.

In the world, no two leaves are identical, and each person beside him was unique, each with their own beauty. Sour, sweet, bitter, spicy, and salty, like a vast array of spices, he wanted to savor every flavor so that he would have no regrets in this life.

"Hmph. At least you know what to say."

Qian Renxue smirked and looked at Xu Ran as she slowly closed her eyes.

If Xu Ran desired so, then she would just follow his lead.

She was Xu Ran's woman after all; whatever Xu Ran wanted, she would accept.

Who made her fall in love with such a bad man? In this life, she was completely taken by Xu Ran.

"Xu Ran, hurry up. Grandpa asked me to wait for you and take you to see him in Spirit City. If he knows you're here and haven't seen him yet, he will be angry," Qian Renxue opened her eyes again and seriously began to talk about official matters.

Actually, what she worried about the most was that her grandfather would find out Xu Ran had come to her room and might suddenly visit. If her grandfather were to see this scene unexpectedly, his heart definitely wouldn't be able to take it, and it could trigger his high blood pressure.

But at this point, it was impossible to stop Xu Ran. Xu Ran was already pressed against her, their bodies hot; to stop Xu Ran now would be harder than reaching the heavens.

"Hmm. I got it," Xu Ran nodded.

Seeing this, Qian Renxue stopped thinking about it, and the shyness in her heart made her cast all other matters aside.

...

Elder Hall.

After taking Xu Ran to Qian Renxue's residence, Serpent Spear Douluo and Ci Tun Dou Luo went back to report to Qian Dao Liu. They were also from the Elder Hall; they had gone to Tiandou City to protect Qian Renxue on the orders of Qian Dao Liu.

"Great Elder, Lord Xu Ran has already gone to the young lady's place," Serpent Spear Douluo said respectfully as he bowed. Qian Dao Liu's deterrent power within Martial Soul Hall, especially among the higher-ups, was far greater than that of Pope Bibi Dong.

It was just that the Pope's reputation was more widely known, both externally and among the subsidiary forces of Martial Soul Hall.

"Hmm? Xu Ran that lad has come?"

Above the Elder Hall, Qian Dao Liu was resting with his eyes closed, peacefully cultivating. When he heard the name Xu Ran, his eyes immediately snapped open, anger flashing in his gaze.

How could he not be enraged when his granddaughter, whom he had painstakingly raised—pure and noble—was taken away by Xu Ran without his vigilance?

That was one thing, but it would've been acceptable if Xue'er had fallen in love with a man of extraordinary talent and the two of them cherished each other. However, the intelligence he received indicated that Xu Ran was no good.

The number of women by Xu Ran's side had already exceeded the count of both hands.

Having so many women by his side was proof enough that Xu Ran was nothing but a lecher.

Thinking of how his innocent granddaughter had never experienced romance before being sweet-talked away by Xu Ran, Qian Dao Liu's eyes darkened.

What was most critical was that damn it! Xu Ran had taken Xue'er's virginity. Without his consent as an elder, Xue'er had secretly tasted the forbidden fruit with Xu Ran. While Xue'er was at fault in this regard, the blame mostly lay with Xu Ran, that bastard.

His granddaughter was simple in nature and had been so beguiled by Xu Ran's sweet nothings that she lost herself and made a misguided decision.

"Martial Soul Hall has already made a mistake once, and cannot afford to make a second."

Qian Dao Liu's face was extremely grim as he thought of Bibi Dong from years past.

The former Bibi Dong had been fiercely loyal to Martial Soul Hall, yet she was swayed by the sweet nothings of Yu Xiaogang, which led her to stand against Martial Soul Hall ultimately. Yu Xiaogang belonged to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, while Bibi Dong was the goddess, the supreme powerhouse that Martial Soul Hall had vigorously nurtured for the future.

If such a talent ended up with Yu Xiaogang, she would be one of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. For Martial Soul Hall, this would be nothing short of a disaster.

Regarding that past error, the Qian Family truly owed Bibi Dong, but they had no other choice.

Bibi Dong's talent was epoch-making, and she bore the makings of a deity. Had she not stayed with Martial Soul Hall but gone to join the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, an adversary, the standing of Martial Soul Hall on the Continent would have been overturned.

Martial Soul Hall had been entrenched on the Continent for so many years, never dreaming that what would wound Martial Soul Hall wasn't external pressure, but rather a tragic tale of love.

Back then, she was only the goddess, but now she was his granddaughter.

His granddaughter was destined to become a deity and to inherit the grand sovereignty of Martial Soul Hall.

If something happened to Xue'er, if she was trapped in the cage of love and could not escape, then everything would be finished.

"You may go now," Qian Dao Liu glanced down at the two Titled Douluo below him and waved his hand, his eyes complex. He feared that Xu Ran would be another Yu Xiaogang, deeply wounding Qian Renxue, wounding Martial Soul Hall.

Whether from Xu Ran's philandering nature or the potential harm he could inflict upon Martial Soul Hall, Qian Dao Liu did not wish to see Qian Renxue and Xu Ran together.

"Xu Ran ah Xu Ran, in times of internal strife within my Martial Soul Hall, you've charmed away Xue'er. Let's see what abilities you possess that make Xue'er so devoted to following you. If you are as useless as that waste Yu Xiaogang, then don't blame me for showing no courtesy." Qian Dao Liu snorted coldly, his body transforming into a streak of light as he flew towards Qian Renxue's mansion.
