Chapter 61: A Chance Encounter with the Golden Generation

~8 min read 1,588 words

On the other side,

Qian Daoliu and the others had also more or less struggled their way out of the encirclement of the Weak Water.

The expressions of the few were not pleasant; after all, for seven Title Douluo to besiege a youth and still let him run away—anyone would find such a thing shameful.

The group looked toward Qian Daoliu, waiting for his instructions.

"Sigh, I didn't expect to be outplayed by this brat after all. You will have to work hard for these next three days. This brat has a concealment-type skill; apart from a Title Douluo, no one can detect him. You should start searching from the various checkpoints first. I must return to the Gongfeng Dian to seek guidance from the Angel God; otherwise, continuing like this is not a solution."

The group nodded to each other in agreement, and at this moment, Jin E spoke.

"High Priest, how should we handle this strange liquid? I just tried it; once this liquid cannot be gathered together, even its corrosiveness is greatly reduced."

Hearing this, Qian Daoliu was also deep in thought. Because some time had passed, the Weak Water had already spread to various places, leaving only a thin layer on the ground. At the same time, the Scroll in the sky had also fallen down and returned to its normal size.

Qian Daoliu picked up the Scroll and observed it carefully. Clearly, the river water depicted on it was gone, leaving only a single line of text.

"It seems this strange water is called Weak Water. Has anyone among you heard of it?"

Everyone shook their heads.

Qian Daoliu was also lost in thought, though he was simultaneously thinking about other matters. The battle had been rushed earlier, and he hadn't paid attention, but now, carefully recalling the details of the fight, he suddenly felt as if some detail worth his concern had been forgotten by him. This intangible, elusive feeling made him somewhat agitated.

Just at this moment, Bibi Dong also arrived with her people.

"Elder Qian, what happened here? As the Pope of the Spirit Hall, I have a need to understand the sequence of events."

Bibi Dong looked at the mess covering the ground and questioned Qian Daoliu.

The several High Priests were very displeased by Bibi Dong's aggressive attitude, but in the end, they said nothing more.

Qian Daoliu looked at her and sighed inwardly, but he did not disclose the detailed sequence of events. He only described it as a rat having snuck in and then escaped. However, he did tell her about Zhou Yi's appearance and attire, including the existence of Jin Ling, as well as his concealment and teleportation skills, as he still needed her help in the search.

Bibi Dong was noncommittal after hearing this. Even divine power had appeared; she did not believe the matter was that simple. However, since this old fellow wouldn't say, it wouldn't be too late for her to find the person herself and then slowly explore the truth.

Although she knew that the young man might have escaped due to divine power or other means, the others did not know this, and that did not stop her from mocking these old things.

"Heh~ Seven Title Douluo acting together and yet unable to take down a single youth—it really is quite laughable~"

Looking at Bibi Dong's mocking smile, the faces of the few turned livid, but they were ultimately in the wrong. With a cold snort, they began to search for Zhou Yi everywhere.

And the several elders and dozens of deacons behind Bibi Dong, after hearing Bibi Dong's words, also began to doubt the strength of the people from the Gongfeng Dian, though they did not show it too much. It was foreseeable that after this incident, Bibi Dong's prestige would surely be greater than ever before.

Qian Daoliu sighed lightly and intended to leave.

However, Bibi Dong did not seem to want to let it go at that.

"Elder Qian, how should the Weak Water on the ground be handled?"

Hearing this, how could Qian Daoliu not understand? This woman clearly wanted a share of this Weak Water; obviously, she had also heard them discussing the effects of the Weak Water earlier. But there was no help for it; after all, he was at fault, so he could only concede the benefits.

"Take your subordinates and collect it. Once you have finished collecting it all, just give me half." After saying this, he tossed the scroll in his hand to Bibi Dong and walked away without looking back.

Hearing this, Bibi Dong was also very satisfied. Being able to demand half from this old fellow's hands was already very satisfying to her, and judging from the previous scene, half was also a great deal. She immediately took the scroll and ordered her subordinates to collect the Weak Water everywhere.

At the same time, in order to avoid the encirclement of the Title Douluo, Zhou Yi could only constantly change his position while using Mirage to keep changing his appearance. Fortunately, only Title Douluo could see through his disguise, so the situation was not extremely tense.

However, this group of old fellows was truly idle; they started a carpet-search from every corner. Moreover, to prevent him from turning into someone else, every deacon and guard even had to use passwords when meeting. Now, to avoid them, Zhou Yi had to wander through the entire Wuhun City, and at this moment, he had even arrived at the forest where the younger generation of the Spirit Hall went for training.

It just so happened that the search here was not as strict as in other places, so he simply decided to stay here for a while.

Just at this moment, he heard a sound coming from not far away, so he directly used Mirage to conceal his figure.

"Nana, Xie Yue, why do you think someone could escape from the hands of the elders of the Gongfeng Dian? They are Title Douluo, after all, and I heard this person is even younger than us. How is this possible?"

"But since the teacher said so, it should be correct. It's just that there is actually such a strong peer in this world; I really want to see it for myself."

"Nana, don't act on your own. His Holiness the Pope said that this person's strength is not something we can contend with. If you find him, just notify the elders directly." Watching the restless Hu Liena, Xie Yue could not help but warn her not to harbor any extra thoughts.

"By the way, Nana, do you know what that strange water His Holiness the Pope asked us to collect is?"

"I don't know the specifics either, only that the water is called Weak Water; I don't know anything else."

Hearing the conversation of these three, Zhou Yi also understood who they were. However, that Bibi Dong and the others had actually collected the Weak Water was something he hadn't expected. Indeed, dispersed Weak Water basically had no power, but it was hard to say whether it was good or bad now that this thing was in Bibi Dong's hands.

Just like that, Zhou Yi silently followed behind Hu Liena and the others to eavesdrop on intelligence; after all, Hu Liena was Bibi Dong's disciple, and she knew more information than others.

However, following them like this, he discovered something interesting.

Logically speaking, in Zhou Yi's view, Hu Liena's soul skill configuration was highly unreasonable, consisting entirely of charm or mental illusion-type skills. If anyone were to resist them, wouldn't she be finished in an instant?

But having followed them this whole way, he discovered that this girl Hu Liena's combat techniques were extremely extraordinary. Moreover, because they were here for training, she did not use her charm much, instead using short blades, melee combat, or long-range throwing, combined with the movement techniques she had figured out herself, which actually looked to have a kind of beauty of slaughter. And compared to her, the combat techniques of Yan and Xie Yue beside her were actually somewhat inferior.

However, thinking about it carefully, it was reasonable. In the original work, Tang San also relied mostly on hidden weapons to cheat when entering Shalu Zhi Du, and Hu Liena, when unable to use charm skills, could complete a hundred victories relying solely on two soul bones. One must know that there were countless Spirit Douluo in the Hell Slaughter Arena; one could imagine how outstanding her combat techniques were. In this regard, it was uncertain if even Tang San could compare.

At the same time,

In the Gongfeng Dian, in front of the Angel God statue,

Qian Daoliu finally received information from the Angel God, understanding that the brat had obtained the inheritance of an enemy of the Angel God.

Fortunately, the Angel God was very familiar with the power of her enemy, and he would soon obtain the power to find Zhou Yi's location.

However, suddenly, his brows furrowed tightly.

As it turned out, he had taken advantage of the time spent waiting to finally think of the detail he had forgotten earlier.

Before that brat released the Weak Water, the scroll had clearly been taken out from the Spirit Tool ring on his hand, and that ring, if he remembered correctly, was clearly a birthday gift he had given to Xiaoxue when she was a child! How could it be in his hands!
