Chapter 24 The Girls' Little Thoughts.
At this moment, the girls belatedly realized what was happening: "Xiao Wu, your mother wouldn't be..."
Xiao Wu nodded: "Yes, it must be what you're thinking. The one who could kill my mother back then must have been a Title Douluo powerhouse."
"Although I was young then, I remember very clearly that the color of that person's spider martial soul changed, which means... the other party had twin martial souls!"
"In other words, the one who killed my mother was the current Pope of the Spirit Hall!" Xiao Wu said through gritted teeth.
Ning Rongrong gently patted Xiao Wu's back, comforting her: "Then Xiao Wu... what should you do? Bibi Dong's strength has been enhanced by the Heavenly Curtain, and she's already a demigod."
Watching the girls talk about this, Lin Yuan didn't say anything or make any promises.
Kill Bibi Dong?
For him now, it was still very simple, even if she was a demigod like him.
Even as twin martial soul possessors, the quality of their martial souls differed.
If it weren't for the fact that the highest innate soul power in this world is only level ten, he would have suspected that his innate soul power was even higher.
Throughout history, only Qian Renxue's Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul has been explicitly mentioned as having innate full soul power at level twenty.
Her innate level twenty is actually the Martial Soul itself being innate level ten, with the other ten levels being divinely bestowed.
(In the original novel, Yu Xiaogang said that all Six-Winged Angels are innate level twenty, but his words are best taken with a grain of salt; the divinely bestowed level ten is probably the most acceptable point.)
Finally, the girls' gazes all fell on Lin Yuan.
Ning Rongrong said coquettishly, "Teacher, why don't you reveal who's stronger, you or Bibi Dong?"
Dugu Yan also smiled and said, "Teacher, can you bear to see your lovely disciple unable to avenge her mother?"
Dugu Yan had a premonition that her teacher's strength was definitely above Bibi Dong's.
Lin Yuan ignored Ning Rongrong's coquettishness and the other girls, lazily looking at Xiao Wu: "Xiao Wu, tell me your thoughts."
Xiao Wu thought for a moment and said, "Teacher, I still want to try it myself first. Although I know you would help me if I asked you, you've spent so much time and resources training me."
"My martial soul has even evolved because of this. Although the gap between me and Bibi Dong is still huge, but if I have a little more time..."
Lin Yuan smiled and patted Xiao Wu's head: "You sound a little unsure about what you're saying, but don't worry, just keep trying. If it still doesn't work out, leave everything to your teacher."
Xiao Wu was overjoyed to hear this; her teacher was willing to help!
This made her eyes redden slightly, and feeling her teacher's warm hand stroking her head, her cheeks flushed slightly.
Her teacher was already very handsome, and these words touched her heart even more.
The girls all knew that their teacher was handsome, talented, and powerful, but he had a flaw: he didn't like to meddle in other people's business and only wanted to take care of himself and... his disciples.
He probably wouldn't want to concern himself with anything else besides them, perhaps after some consideration.
After all, their teacher was... too lazy.
They rarely even saw him actively cultivating, yet his strength steadily increased—it was ridiculous!
It was for this reason that Xiao Wu really didn't want to trouble Lin Yuan, fearing she would be put in a difficult position.
They were master and disciple, that was true, but after so many years, she actually had some other thoughts in her heart, but the gap between her and her teacher was too great, and she dared not express them.
Not only her, but she could sense that the other girls felt the same way.
If it weren't for their deep affection, when Lin Yuan criticized her father and two grandfathers in front of her, she, the little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, should have been extremely angry.
But Ning Rong was very rational, considering Lin Yuan's words rather than blindly siding with her three relatives.
Because for her, both sides are family!
Ning Rongrong pouted, "Teacher, you're biased. You're willing to help Xiao Wu, but not me."
A question mark appeared on Lin Yuan's mind, "When did I not help you?"
Ning Rongrong said, "Didn't you just say you didn't want to get involved in the competition between the major powers on the continent?"
Lin Yuan nodded seriously, "That's right. Asking me to help your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is different in nature from helping Xiao Wu get revenge."
"After all, in terms of kinship, I might help your family if they were in danger, but there aren't many people like that in your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."
"Furthermore, if your father can keep a low profile afterward, no power should be willing to offend a sect with a top-tier support-type martial soul."
Ning Rongrong was troubled, "Teacher, aren't you trying to keep the sect neutral? Wouldn't that just attract more attention from the major powers..."
Lin Yuan shook his head, "Not really. First of all, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has two Guardian Douluos. If the two great empires don't dare to do anything to the sect, then only the Spirit Hall will."
"As long as your sect promises not to aid the two great empires and remains neutral, there's a high probability that the Spirit Hall won't do anything to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."
"Even if that's the case, your sect still faces the danger of annihilation in the future. Relocate your sect near the academy, and I'll protect it!"
Receiving Lin Yuan's promise, Ning Rongrong was overjoyed and excitedly hugged him.
"Thank you, Teacher!"
Then, Ning Rongrong shyly took a few steps back, a blush rising to her face.
She was so excited!
She had asked her teacher several times before, but each time the answer was ambiguous.
Lin Yuan hadn't agreed before because his strength wasn't enough.
Now that he was strong enough, naturally… I don't eat beef!
His power was more than enough to do whatever he wanted on the continent.
But he was too lazy.
Living a leisurely life at Canglan Academy, chatting and laughing with his disciples, watching them grow and become more beautiful, gave him a great sense of accomplishment.
Having transmigrated to the world of Douluo Continent, he's now considered an invincible powerhouse. He can start thinking about whether he can collect a few more women.
After all, if he transmigrates to Douluo Continent, has power, and is still single, wouldn't that be a waste of his transmigration?
After all, becoming a god grants him immortality; if he's all alone, it seems a bit dull.
What was the point of his nearly twenty years of diligent cultivation?
Wasn't it so he could do whatever he wanted in the future?
Before transmigrating, he had read many online novels, and one line in particular stuck with him: "Work hard when you're young, and you'll be invincible—what woman can't you have?"
Just as the group was chatting and laughing, the golden text on the screen changed again.
