Chapter 2 - Chapter 2 Qian Xunji: I've Also Thought About Being a Good Brother When

  Ling Yuan caught up with Qian Yucheng, she found Pope Qian Xunji standing in front of her.

  Ling Yuan stepped forward and respectfully said, "Greetings, Your Holiness the Pope!"

  "Hmm, no need for formalities!"

  Qian Xunji replied indifferently, then looked at his younger brother.

  "Second brother, you've been staying in the library for the past thirty years, you've really been patient!"

  "Big brother, I've found a good prospect, the apprenticeship ceremony is about to begin, you must be there!"

  Qian Yucheng was no longer bothered by his older brother's veiled sarcasm.

  These words were far less damaging than the PUA tactics of his girlfriend in his previous life!

  "Big brother, this is a good thing, of course I must be there!"

  "You've been stuck at level 89 for two and a half years, maybe you can break through to the Title Douluo level after accepting an apprentice!"

  He looked happy, sincerely congratulating Qian Xunji on accepting a good disciple.

  Seeing their brotherly affection, Ling Yuan was somewhat suspicious of the rumors outside.

  The two sons of the Grand Elder were at odds, who spread this rumor? (

  Qian Yucheng: That's me!)

  Qian Xunji was displeased. His second brother had become increasingly arrogant since he started studying!

  However, he was ultimately just a useless person who couldn't cultivate a martial spirit!

  "It's good that you understand. As the second young master of the Spirit Hall, you must not tarnish the reputation of the Spirit Hall in any situation!"

  After saying this, Qian Xunji left.

  As the Pope, who was the focus of everyone's attention, he wouldn't waste too much time on a useless person!

  Qian Yucheng shook his head. His eldest brother was too eager for quick success.

  His talent even surpassed his father's. He was already a level 59 Soul King at the age of twenty!

  It was a pity that sixteen years had passed and he was stuck at level 89.

  However, this speed still made the old guys in the Hall of Offerings place high hopes on him.

  Otherwise, how could he become the Pope of the Spirit Hall without the realm of a Title Douluo?!

  "Big brother, the gears of fate have begun to turn!"

  Qian Yucheng sighed in his heart and turned to look at Ling Yuan.

  "Elder Lingyuan, there's actually another way to solve your martial soul problem!"

  "The best and simplest method is the balance of Yin and Yang. Heaven and earth are natural, Yin and Yang complement each other, this is the principle of Heaven."

  "If you can find ice-attribute soul bones and collect six of them, you can also solve this problem, but unfortunately ice-attribute soul bones are too rare!"

  Hearing his words, Lingyuan completely ignored the first solution and still thought the second method was more reliable.

  The balance of Yin and Yang? She didn't believe it at all; it was clearly a flirtatious remark!

  "Second Young Master, I've remembered the ice-attribute soul bones!" She indicated that she understood.

  Seeing Lingyuan say this, Qian Yucheng didn't say anything more. Saying more might make her think he was lusting after her body.

  But to be fair, her figure was indeed very impressive.

  "Okay, come with me!"

  Qian Yucheng led Lingyuan away from the library.

  …

  "Your Holiness the Pope, the High Priest has sent word that you need to go to the Hall of Offerings!"

  The guard immediately reported upon seeing Qian Xunji return.

  "I know!"

  Qian Xunji glanced at the huge angel statue and headed towards the Hall of Offerings.

  He arrived at the Hall of Offerings and looked at Qian Daoliu, who sat in the center.

  "Father, I've come!" "

  Xunji, went to the Library to see Yu Cheng again?"

  Qian Daoliu opened his eyes, looking at his eldest son.

  "Father, I did visit my second brother; he's still the same as before."

  Qian Xunji didn't hide anything, speaking the truth.

  "Sigh..."

  Qian Daoliu sighed. His second son's temperament and other aspects far surpassed ordinary people, but unfortunately, he couldn't cultivate soul power. His eldest son,

  Qian Xunji, was exceptionally talented and ambitious, but unfortunately, his temperament wasn't up to par.

  The inheritance of the Angel God couldn't be relied upon in this generation.

  "I've met that child, Bibi Dong; she's the best candidate for the position of Saintess!"

  "The second person on the continent with twin martial souls, and with innate full soul power; she deserves the Spirit Hall's full support!"

  Qian Daoliu was still very pleased; this trip to exterminate the evil soul masters had brought back an unexpected surprise.

  "Father, I will nurture her well. A rare twin martial soul—the Spirit Hall won't let such a genius be left to languish!"

  A hint of pride flashed in Qian Xunji's eyes. This would be the beginning of his leaving a significant mark on the history of the Spirit Hall!

  The youngest and fastest Pope to break through to the Title Douluo level in the history of the Spirit Hall!

  Just thinking about it was tempting!

  He hid it well, but Qian Daoliu, being an old and shrewd man, couldn't possibly not see through it.

  His eldest son, on whom he had placed such high hopes, had already developed an obsession, and it would be difficult for him to turn back.

  Qian Daoliu's smile faded, and he asked, "The people around Yu Cheng, were they all arranged by you?"

  "That's right, his maids were all carefully arranged by me; their conditions in all aspects are top-notch."

  "Although my second brother cannot cultivate, he can continue the Qian family's lineage. Perhaps he can give birth to a genius descendant!"

  Qian Xunji said.

  "Do you think what you've done is so discreet, that your good brother is a fool?"

  "Those women are quite beautiful, but why didn't he touch a single one?"

  "Xunji, you've disappointed me so much!"

  "Yucheng... he's your own brother!"

  Qian Daoliu's expression changed, and he directly reprimanded Qian Xunji.

  "Even if he can't cultivate, you can't cut off his hope of continuing the family line. Is that something a brother should do?!"

  Qian Xunji didn't expect that even though he had kept this a secret, his father had still discovered it.

  So, he stopped hiding it. His blond hair and blue eyes revealed a hint of madness,   making him seem like a complete stranger to

  Qian Daoliu!

  "You don't understand anything, Father. I really want to improve!"

  "Since birth, Mother, all the elders... everyone's eyes have been on my second brother!" "And I feel like a forgotten child!"   "To be honest, I'm really jealous of him!"   "From the age of three, I secretly vowed in my heart that I must surpass him and gain everyone's recognition!"   Qian Daoliu never expected that his eldest son would be jealous of his younger brother because of this.   "But you…"   Before he could finish, Qian Xunji interrupted him.   "What are you trying to say? I'm the older brother, I should take care of my younger brother!   I want to be a good older brother too!"   "But he stole all my childhood. I was born a moment before him, and I was a child back then too!"   "He always got priority in everything, and I, as his older brother, could only choose what was left over!"   The more Qian Xunji recalled the past, the more intense his jealousy became.   "If he hadn't awakened his martial soul at six, he would have been a useless martial soul. Do you think I would be like this today?!"   "To be honest, I'm truly grateful to God. I'm grateful that He gave me back everything I lost!"   "I successfully awakened the Six-Winged Angel, and with innate full soul power at that. Your attention is finally focused on me. It turns out that the feeling of being admired is so intoxicating!"   "My second brother is a piece of trash. In the history of the Spirit Hall, he's a disgrace!"   "Similarly, he's a disgrace to my Qian family!"   "A family with a six-winged angel lineage has produced a piece of trash. If this news gets out, the entire continent will probably laugh at the Spirit Hall!"   "Therefore, even if I bear the infamy, I will wash away this disgrace for the Spirit Hall!"   Qian Daoliu instantly stood up, radiating a powerful aura, and came to Qian Xunji, raising his right hand.   "You unfilial son! He's your own brother! How could you do   such a thing as killing your own flesh and blood!" "Even if he's a good-for-nothing, he's still my son, Qian Daoliu's son. How I deal with him is my business!"   "Now I understand why you can't gain the statue's approval..."   "A person with such a dark heart can never gain the approval of the light!"   "I've lived an upright life; how could I have such an unfilial son!"   Qian Xunji was fearless, his gaze fixed on his father.   "So what if I can't gain approval? I am now the Pope of the Spirit Hall, the object of everyone's attention!"   "Second only to the Pope, above all others! The Spirit Hall will become even more glorious in my hands!"   As the two confronted each other, a powerful figure entered.   "Grand Elder, what's going on? Has an enemy invaded?"   The newcomer was an elderly man with a powerful aura, dressed in a golden robe and silver embroidery, his hair and beard all white.   It was none other than the Second Elder of the Spirit Hall, Golden Crocodile Douluo.   His Martial Soul was the Golden Crocodile King, a level 98 peak Power Attack type Title Douluo!   Qian Daoliu withdrew his aura and returned to his seat, his expression unchanged.   "It's nothing, just testing Xunji's strength."   "He's been stuck at level 89 for two and a half years. This was just a test, and he'll probably break through to level 90 soon!"   Hearing Qian Daoliu's words, Golden Crocodile Douluo looked at Qian Xunji with satisfaction.   "Good, good, good! As expected of the most outstanding Pope in the Spirit Hall in a thousand years!"   "Once you break through to level 90, I will personally hunt down a suitable spirit beast for you!"   Qian Xunji looked at Golden Crocodile Douluo respectfully, "Xunji thanks the Second Elder!" He   then looked at Qian Daoliu and said, "Father, there are still matters waiting for me in the Pope's Hall, I will take my leave now!"   "Mm!"   Qian Daoliu nodded and left the Hall of Elders.   Leading him away from the entrance, Golden Crocodile Douluo looked at Qian Daoliu with a serious expression, puzzled, and asked,   "Great Elder, why did you show murderous intent towards Xun Ji just now?"   Qian Daoliu shook his head and sighed,   "It's a pity that Yu Cheng can't cultivate, otherwise he would be the most suitable candidate for Pope!"   ...   (End of this chapter)
