Qian Renxue and Ye Xi looked at the Tian Yue before them with surprised expressions. Judging from the situation just now, Tian Yue had clearly been recognized by the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, and the first three forms of the spear technique had most likely been passed to Tian Yue.
Yet, Tian Yue actually said she hadn't memorized them.
"Young Lord, Second Miss."
"What are those looks on your faces?"
Tian Yue blinked her eyes, somewhat confused as she looked at the surprised expressions of Qian Renxue and Ye Xi.
Hearing this, Qian Renxue and Ye Xi exchanged a glance and shook their heads simultaneously.
"It's nothing. If you didn't memorize it, then you didn't."
"It shouldn't be a big problem."
Qian Renxue pondered for a moment and said softly.
"Tian Yue, I'll give this Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud to you. You must keep it safe."
Ye Xi handed the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud in her hand to Tian Yue and instructed her earnestly.
Tian Yue took the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, nodded seriously, and then stored it in her spirit tool.
"Second Miss, I will keep the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud safe."
Tian Yue patted her chest, her voice full of seriousness.
After Tian Yue put away the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud, Qian Renxue took the lead and walked forward, while Ye Xi and Tian Yue quickly followed her pace.
Leaving the Supreme Pontiff Palace and arriving at the bustling streets of Spirit City, the three of them walked straight ahead, listening to the shouts of the vendors on both sides.
Along the way, Qian Renxue, Ye Xi, and Tian Yue would stop from time to time or pause in front of stalls to examine the goods.
The three of them had grown up in Spirit City, so they were very familiar with it. They knew exactly where the fun places or delicious food were.
As time passed bit by bit.
The sun set.
The sky gradually darkened.
On a small hill outside Spirit City, Qian Renxue and Ye Xi sat on the ground, feeling the breeze blowing, their eyes quietly fixed on the brilliant starry sky.
Tian Yue stood quietly behind the two of them, her gaze also looking at the brilliant starry sky.
A breeze blew, stirring the hair of the three. After checking the time, Qian Renxue stood up from the ground and patted the dust off her clothes.
"It's getting late."
"We should go back too. Let's get a good rest tonight, and tomorrow we return to Heaven Dou City."
Qian Renxue said, a smile appearing on her beautiful face as she reached out a hand to Ye Xi on the ground.
Seeing Qian Renxue's action, Ye Xi also reached out her hand. As their hands clasped together, Qian Renxue exerted force and pulled Ye Xi up from the ground.
"Then let's go back."
After Ye Xi patted the dust off her body, she and Qian Renxue walked towards Spirit City. Tian Yue quickly followed their pace.
Returning to the Hall of Offerings, Qian Renxue, Ye Xi, and Tian Yue discovered that Qian Daoliu and Golden Crocodile were still playing chess in the main hall.
"Xue'er, Ye Xi, Tian Yue, you're back."
Qian Daoliu looked at the three who had returned, his gaze involuntarily turning to Tian Yue, his eyes narrowing slightly.
Looking at Qian Daoliu's somewhat strange expression, Golden Crocodile also looked at his granddaughter Tian Yue, but did not find anything unusual.
"What's wrong, Big Brother?"
Golden Crocodile asked with some confusion.
Hearing this, Qian Daoliu did not speak for a moment, but his gaze remained fixed on Tian Yue.
"Tian Yue, release your Spirit and let me see."
Qian Daoliu looked at the Tian Yue in front of him, his voice full of gentleness.
"Alright, High Priest."
After Tian Yue agreed, she released her Spirit: Golden Crocodile King. After the Spirit possessed her, four spirit rings—two yellow and two purple—flashed at Tian Yue's feet.
After Tian Yue released her Spirit, a trace of surprise appeared in Qian Daoliu's eyes, and his gaze swept up and down over Tian Yue.
"It's actually the aura of divinity."
Qian Daoliu said, waving his hand at Tian Yue to signal that she could retract her Spirit.
"Aura of divinity?"
"Big Brother, what do you mean?"
Listening to Qian Daoliu's words, a look of pleasant surprise appeared in Golden Crocodile's eyes.
As the Second Offering of the Hall of Offerings, and loyal to the Angel clan of the Qian family, how could he not understand what Qian Daoliu meant?
"A limitless future."
Qian Daoliu nodded gently, confirming Golden Crocodile's thoughts.
"But when I saw Tian Yue during the day, I didn't notice any aura of divinity on her?"
Qian Daoliu looked at Qian Renxue and Ye Xi with an inquiring gaze and asked.
Hearing Qian Daoliu's inquiry, Qian Renxue and Ye Xi did not speak, but looked at Tian Yue, signaling for her to explain.
Seeing their actions, Qian Daoliu and Golden Crocodile also looked at Tian Yue, waiting for her reply.
Facing everyone's gaze, Tian Yue thought for a moment and then told Qian Daoliu and Golden Crocodile the whole story.
Listening to Tian Yue's narration, Qian Daoliu and Golden Crocodile could not help but look at Ye Xi.
There was appreciation in Qian Daoliu's gaze, while there was gratitude in Golden Crocodile's eyes.
Looking at the gazes of Qian Daoliu and Golden Crocodile, Ye Xi just smiled and did not speak.
"Xue'er, Ye Xi, it's getting late, you should go back and rest first."
"Tian Yue, tomorrow Xue'er and Ye Xi are returning to Heaven Dou City, so you stay at the Hall of Offerings tonight."
Qian Daoliu looked at the three with his eyes and said in a gentle voice.
"Grandfather, then we will go back to rest first."
Qian Renxue agreed, then walked towards her room with Ye Xi.
After Tian Yue bowed respectfully to Qian Daoliu, she quickly followed Qian Renxue and Ye Xi's pace.
After the three of them left, Golden Crocodile picked up a chess piece, placed it on the board, and asked: "Big Brother, how far can Tian Yue eventually go?"
There was a hint of expectation in Golden Crocodile's voice.
"I don't know."
"The aura of divinity on Tian Yue is too weak. It's hard to say whether she can take that step."
Qian Daoliu shook his head gently, indicating that he didn't know either.
Hearing this, Golden Crocodile nodded gently, his somewhat aged face still bearing a smile.
Although he didn't know if Tian Yue could take that step in the end, at least she had touched the threshold now. Even if she couldn't take that final step, it didn't matter.
Looking at the smile on Golden Crocodile's face, Qian Daoliu casually picked up a chess piece and placed it on the board without speaking again.
After Qian Daoliu placed his piece, Golden Crocodile looked at the chessboard in front of him, and a hint of thought could not help appearing in his eyes.
"Big Brother, how about we call this game a draw?"
Golden Crocodile placed his piece on the board and said with a smile.
"Hmm, then let's call it a draw."
Qian Daoliu waved his hand indifferently, then stood up straight and walked towards his room.
