Xiao Yan was also a little puzzled by Serpent Granny's thoughts.
If she thought it was too much trouble, he could also use his Blue Silver Domain to find a Man Faced Demon Spider in the Star Dou Great Forest.
"Aren't there still methods of nurturing that we haven't used yet?" Serpent Granny looked at her granddaughter amiably.
"Grandma, didn't you listen to Xiao Yan's explanation just now?" Meng Yiran reminded her.
Dragon Duke probably understood his old woman's intentions.
This Xiao Yan, at such a young age, already possessed a terrifying level of strength. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say he was a Title Douluo.
For such a rising genius, marriage was the best way for their Meng Shu family to attract and rope him in.
After all, their strength was far inferior compared to Xiao Yan.
Other things, other families could also provide.
However, the beauty and superior talent of his granddaughter made her the best choice to maintain a good relationship with Xiao Yan.
Although it didn't sound good, that's how the big families operated.
The family provided wealth and protection, and at a certain point, a girl's marriage would serve as repayment for all of it.
Under normal circumstances, his granddaughter's marriage would certainly not be decided so hastily, and she could even choose her own happiness.
But the boundless potential that Xiao Yan possessed truly gave him this idea.
According to the old woman, this Xiao Yan was only twelve years old.
A twelve-year-old Title Douluo, this was unprecedented in the entire world of Soul Masters.
Moreover, the Hall of Souls and Heavenly Mansion Alliance he created had the potential to surpass the Upper Three Sects in the future, even the Spirit Hall.
Having managed the Meng Shu family for decades, Dragon Duke was quite confident in his judgment of a faction's development potential.
Aside from the number of people in a sect, Xiao Yan already possessed the most important element for a sect: a Title Douluo-level powerhouse.
With a Title Douluo-level powerhouse, everything else that was needed to catch up to the great sects would be much easier.
It was no exaggeration to say that, as of now, Xiao Yan already had the development potential to reach the level of the Upper Three Sects.
Although Serpent Granny's voice was low, Xiao Yan heard it clearly.
He could roughly guess what Serpent Granny meant.
Meng Yiran was already sixteen years old, an age when young love often blossomed. Being very intelligent herself, she had a vague understanding of her grandmother's intentions.
Clinging to Serpent Granny's arm, Meng Yiran whispered, "Grandma, you're not going to try and play Matchmaking, are you? I'm three years older than him…"
Serpent Granny said earnestly, "Yiran, how could Grandma ever hurt you? You saw today, Xiao Yan's strength and intelligence are such that even in the entire Douluo Continent, there might not be any younger people who surpass him.
And what's even more rare and valuable is that he's not arrogant like the young people from other prominent families. Xiao Yan's strength is something that even your grandfather admires."
Serpent Granny had always believed that she wasn't outstanding in terms of martial soul cultivation, even rather mediocre. But when it came to judging people, she had absolute confidence.
Especially with the passage of time and the accumulation of experience, she was even more confident in her ability to judge character.
Xiao Yan, at such a young age, already possessed such strength; his future was undoubtedly boundless.
Meng Yiran agreed with her grandmother's words wholeheartedly.
With Xiao Yan's strength, having defeated his grandfather, he was undoubtedly the most outstanding genius on the continent. This was beyond dispute.
Meng Yiran secretly glanced at Xiao Yan. "Granny, you're right. But Xiao Yan has so many female companions; he looks like a playboy. And we've only met twice, it's too soon for that."
"That is indeed a problem," Chao Tianxiang nodded slightly.
Large families generally had a habit of polygamy. Dragon Duke was only spared from it because he was with her during his youth, and she kept a tighter rein on him.
Looking at Xiao Xue beside him, Xiao Yan thought to himself: I'll definitely have to get this girl to watch her mouth in the future.
While the matter with Zhu Zhuqing had a positive effect, allowing Xuan Tian Technique to be practiced normally on soul masters, this time he was about to cause a huge mess.
Xiao Yan thought for a moment and explained to the three of them in depth, "Nurturing the meridians isn't that simple. The entire process is extremely painful, not unlike forcibly absorbing a soul ring that exceeds the age limit. It is, in fact, a very risky behavior. It's not worth it for just absorbing a soul ring."
Saying this, Xiao Yan reached out and stroked Xiao Xue's head. "Xiao Xue is only young and doesn't know any better. After the Hall of Souls matures and operates properly, you all will understand."
"So that's how it is!" Serpent Granny felt her calculations shatter instantly.
If that was the case, she naturally wouldn't let her granddaughter take the risk anymore.
Dragon Duke sighed, a little disappointed.
He still strongly agreed with his old woman's plan.
Meng Yiran, who had been a little nervous and ill at ease, gently patted her chest.
"I'll still accept the Medicinal Bath. This Man Faced Demon Spider doesn't seem to be too old. According to Xiao Yan, if the Medicinal Bath can increase my endurance by more than a hundred years, and tormenting the Man Faced Demon Spider can reduce the energy impact of its Soul Ring by more than a hundred years.
With this combined attack, it reduces it by more than three hundred years. Absorbing a Soul Ring of over seventeen hundred years is just at the limit for a Soul Master, it's worth a try."
Xiao Yan smiled faintly: "The effect might be much better than you expect. Even if this Man Faced Demon Spider is two thousand five hundred years old, you can still safely absorb it."
Dragon Duke roughly estimated that based on Xiao Yan's theory, just torturing the Man Faced Demon Spider should allow Meng Yiran's limit for absorbing a soul ring to increase by about three hundred years.
If a soul bone could be dropped after killing the Man Faced Demon Spider, it would further validate Xiao Yan's theory.
Dragon Duke respectfully said, "Then I'll have to trouble the Alliance Master to prepare a medicinal bath for my granddaughter."
Even though he was much older than Xiao Yan, the soul master world was all about respecting the strong.
Xiao Yan's powerful strength did not allow for acting old and relying on seniority.
Xiao Yan didn't make any "condescending" gestures regarding the title of Alliance Master.
Without rules, there is no order.
Since he had joined the Heavenly Mansion Alliance, he would naturally be addressed by his position within the alliance.
Watching the Man Faced Demon Spider that was about to regain consciousness, Xiao Yan raised his hand and once again released a wave of Pikong Palm force.
The Man Faced Demon Spider: "..."
Again and again, you're hitting me! I was just about to wake up! Are you getting more skilled the more you hit me?
Xiao Yan casually used the Blue Silver Emperor martial soul to weave a table. His palm swept across the Storage Jade Belt repeatedly, and he took out the medicinal herbs he had gathered from within his belt.
He had to admit, the Star Dou Great Forest was simply a huge treasure trove.
Herbs of a hundred years in age were almost everywhere.
And the deeper he went, the more high-grade herbs he found.
