Chapter 66: Counter Zhu Zhuqing
"Why...why are you being so kind to her?"
Seeing Zhu Zhuyun leave, Zhu Zhuqing couldn't control her body and kept arguing with him, and she was getting really angry!
Qi Tian smiled and asked, "Isn't this better?"
Zhu Zhuqing blurted out, "Of course it's bad! She's our enemy in the battle for the throne six years from now!"
"If I lose, at best I'll be placed under house arrest, at worst they'll kill me!"
"Since we're enemies, why are we being so friendly to her?"
Qi Tian shook his head and said, "No, you are not enemies, you are sisters bound by blood!"
"Your involvement in the internal power struggles of the Dai family led to the sisters turning against each other and the weakening of family bonds!"
"I think you should unite and rebel against the Dai family together, so that future daughters of the Zhu family won't have to suffer like you."
Zhu Zhuqing is only nine years old. Since awakening her spirit at the age of six, she has been instilled with different values.
When Qi Tian pointed this out to her, she suddenly realized that her relationship with her sister wasn't bad before she awakened her spirit.
Everything changed after she awakened her spirit at the age of six and was discovered to have level seven innate soul power, which caught the eye of the Dai family.
Everyone around her told her that her mission was to help Dai Mubai win the position of crown prince.
"But this has always been the fate of our Zhu family, hasn't it?" Zhu Zhuqing said absentmindedly.
"Just because it's always been this way, does that mean it's right?" Qi Tian asked.
Qi Tian entered Zhu Zhuqing's house, closed the courtyard gate, and began to examine the furnishings of her home.
Zhu Zhuqing remained silent for a while before saying, "But the Dai family possesses the White Tiger Spirit, which allows them to perform a Spirit Fusion Technique with us!"
"Only by unleashing our Spirit Fusion Technique can we possess the strength to contend with Titled Douluos and establish ourselves on the Douluo Continent!"
She had received this kind of education for several years, and her values could not have been changed by Qi Tian so quickly. She was still trying to justify her behavior.
Qi Tian went to her kitchen, preparing to start a fire to melt the Whale Glue while continuing to persuade her.
"Then why doesn't the Zhu family seize power, but instead becomes a vassal of the Dai family?" Qi Tian asked.
Zhu Zhuqing explained, "Because our Spirit Fusion Skill is dominated by the Dai family's White Tiger Spirit!"
"That's simple. As long as you break through to the Titled Douluo level, you can rewrite your destiny, right?"
"If the Dai family is unwilling to be a vassal of the Zhu family, then slaughter every male member of the Dai family and let them taste the same fate as the Zhu family!"
Qi Tian said menacingly, "It's no problem for the Dai family to turn their own members against each other in order to raise Gu poison."
But they didn't need to bring the Zhu family in.
The royal family could have allowed the princes to decide on the position of crown prince, and then marry a woman from the Zhu family to them as the crown prince's wife.
In this way, the fate of the eldest daughter of the Zhu family would not have been so tragic.
Qi Tian felt that the Dai family was being unfair to Zhu Zhuqing, as the Zhu family did not resist.
Zhu Zhuqing fell silent. She was still young, and her thinking could still be changed. At this moment, she was already pondering the reasoning behind Qi Tian's words.
Qi Tian wasn't in a hurry and planned to slowly cultivate Zhu Zhuqing's mindset, giving her the belief to break free from the shackles of fate.
"This firepower isn't enough!"
Qi Tian fanned the flames to start a fire, trying to soften the Whale Glue.
After a long time, the Whale Glue slowly softened, the black color faded, and the colloidal structure reorganized, allowing light to pass through.
The black Whale Glue turned into a softened, translucent yellow Whale Glue.
Qi Tian picked up the scalding hot Whale Glue and stuffed it into his mouth. An indescribable fishy smell made him want to vomit.
The scalding hot rubber can even burn the esophagus.
Fortunately, Qi Tian was already used to it and could force himself to swallow the Whale Glue, but Zhu Zhuqing couldn't; it was the first time she had ever eaten something so unpalatable.
It was fishy, smelly, and scalding hot.
Her thoughts were interrupted.
"It tastes awful!" Zhu Zhuqing said bitterly.
She felt that if she were in control of her body, she might have already vomited.
"Is this thing really that effective?" Zhu Zhuqing asked.
"Of course! Consuming this piece of Whale Glue will increase the age of your third spirit ring by at least two hundred years!"
While swallowing Whale Glue, Qi Tian communicated with Zhu Zhuqing using his soul.
"Furthermore, Soul Masters who have consumed Whale Glue have stronger bodies than ordinary Soul Masters. You might even be able to fight opponents of higher levels!"
After a while, the medicinal effects of the Whale Glue began to take hold.
Zhu Zhuqing felt her whole body getting hot, and a strange sensation rose within her.
For some reason, she suddenly remembered Qi Tian helping her take a bath this morning, and that feeling seemed to reappear.
Qi Tian was already used to this feeling. He went straight to the courtyard, ready to make use of the medicine's effects.
"Start exercising while the medication is at its strongest!"
He synchronized with his main body and began to temper his body and strengthen his physique.
He's becoming more and more proficient at the state of having one soul in two bodies!
However, the main body has the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl to increase its load-bearing capacity, while Zhu Zhuqing can only do some simple exercises.
"I wonder if we could add the weight of the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl to Zhu Zhuqing's body as well?" Qi Tian wondered.
Qi Tian attempted to communicate with the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl to test the feasibility of this method.
He has already begun to refine the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl, and the pearl is now bound to his soul.
Just as Qi Tian was thinking about it, he suddenly felt that there was an additional phantom of the Sea-Stabilizing Divine Pearl in his divided soul.
"This is... a phantom image reflected by the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl?" Qi Tian confirmed.
"Let's test its effects!" Qi Tian channeled a wisp of soul power into it, making it heavier.
Suddenly, Qi Tian felt a weight on his body, as if he were carrying a large rock.
"efficient!"
Qi Tian used the effects of the Sea-Stabilizing Pearl to temper his body until he was exhausted, at which point he returned to his room to rest.
At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing finally stopped having that strange feeling.
She composed herself, clearing her mind, before asking, "Are you saying that I also have a chance to break through to the Titled Douluo level?"
The Dai and Zhu families have passed down their traditions for countless generations, yet none have broken the record of becoming a Titled Douluo.
But Qi Tian's actions gave her hope.
If she can break through to the Titled Douluo level, she might actually be able to change the fate of the Zhu family.
"Of course! You possess level seven innate soul power; that alone is enough to qualify you for a title!"
Ten thousand years later, having innate seventh-level soul power can indeed be considered worthy of being granted a title.
However, at present, the cultivation of spirits is not advanced enough, and there is not even a method for cultivating soul cores.
Zhu Zhuqing needs to put in a lot of hard work if she wants to break through to the Titled Douluo level.
"Really?" Zhu Zhuqing was somewhat excited, but her excitement quickly faded. "Unfortunately, I only have six years!"
"Who said you only have six years left?" Qi Tian said.
"If you run away to the Heaven Dou Empire and hide there first, do you think the Star Luo Empire can extend its reach into the Heaven Dou Empire?"
"Even if you have nowhere to hide, as long as you join the Spirit Hall, the Star Luo Royal Family won't dare to touch you!" Qi Tian said.
Zhu Zhuqing seemed to be deep in thought. If there was any hope of breaking through the title barrier, she could indeed hide away first.
Dai Mubai can hide, so can she!
After breaking through the title barrier, she will return to Star Luo and help the Zhu family break free from their fate!
