Douluo: Danheng just want to avoid trouble, Gu Yuena Pursues.-Chapter 263: The God of Angels

The table was full of dishes, and the aroma of the food filled the room.

However, with Zi Ji absent, the atmosphere inside the room seemed to have dropped significantly, and everyone felt a bit out of sorts.

Dan Heng was just about to speak.

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door.

Everyone turned to look.

Zhu Zhuqing's figure flickered as she went to open the door and brought in two people.

"Dan Heng, hahaha... I came at just the right time, didn't I? So much food? Did you prepare it just for me?"

Poseidon, the Sea God, looked at the table full of delicious dishes and laughed heartily.

Following behind him was Qian Renxue, who looked a bit awkward.

"Mr. Dan Heng..."

Dan Heng looked at Poseidon with a faint expression.

He had just "sold" Poseidon to the people of Sea God Island a moment ago.

Poseidon was probably still holding a grudge, so now that he had come over, he definitely didn't have any good intentions.

"Sis-in-law, where's that little Zi?"

Poseidon sat down like he owned the place and asked curiously.

"She went back to her family," Gu Yuena replied with a gentle smile.

She maintained a fairly polite attitude toward Poseidon.

She could also guess that Poseidon had likely helped Dan Heng find a way to conceive the next generation.

Poseidon gave an "oh" and smiled even brighter.

That little female dragon who always butted heads with him wasn't here—what a relief!

He laughed enthusiastically. "Come on, everyone sit down and eat! We're all family, no need to be formal. Sis-in-law, I heard you're expecting?"

Everyone took their seats, watching Poseidon with various expressions.

Dan Heng waited for the other shoe to drop.

This guy wasn't the type to take a loss quietly.

"Yes..."

Gu Yuena leaned against Dan Heng with a look of bliss on her face.

Poseidon immediately congratulated her. "That's wonderful! Sis-in-law, when the child is born, I'll have a big gift ready for him!"

Poseidon seemed genuinely sincere and heartfelt.

Gu Yuena smiled slightly. "Then thank you very much..."

Qian Renxue forced a smile, subconsciously raised her hand to her chest, and looked down at the food in her bowl.

A sudden urge to leave surged within her.

It wasn't just a sour feeling from her own emotions—it was also the resentment lingering in her bloodline, coming from that ancestral spirit.

The group chatted idly and continued eating.

Halfway through the meal—

Poseidon suddenly said, "Dan Heng, you promised me something before, remember? What a coincidence—now's the perfect time."

"Hm?" Dan Heng looked at Poseidon in confusion.

Poseidon grinned and pointed to Qian Renxue beside him. "Look, she really misses her family. Can you help her fulfill her wish? After all, you two are old friends, right? So many years of friendship..."

Poseidon's tone was suggestive, with a sly smile.

If Zi Ji had been here, she'd have definitely made some snarky comment.

But right now, no one objected to anything Poseidon said.

Dan Heng paused and looked at Qian Renxue.

His gaze instantly penetrated her body and directly perceived her soul.

At this moment, the divine aura of the Angel God within Qian Renxue had grown stronger, indicating that her bloodline was nearly fully awakened.

But this didn't mean that the Angel God Qian Yuhan was reviving.

Rather, Qian Renxue's power was about to awaken entirely.

However, she was stuck at a critical juncture—only by overcoming this hurdle could she undergo a complete transformation.

Poseidon had come precisely to ask Dan Heng to help solve this problem.

Poseidon chuckled, "With your abilities, Dan Heng, this should be easy for you. Besides, you promised me, didn't you?"

Though Poseidon was smiling on the surface, he was gloating inside.

He had long noticed that Gu Yuena was prone to jealousy.

And Dan Heng's past with Qian Yuhan was like a powder keg.

Now, having Dan Heng personally help Qian Renxue? That was bound to cause him some trouble!

"..." Dan Heng fell silent.

Qian Renxue quickly waved her hands in panic. "N-No, that won't be necessary. Mr. Poseidon, I appreciate your kindness, but I really..."

Gu Yuena gave Qian Renxue a long look, then smiled serenely, showing not the slightest hint of jealousy.

She wrapped her arms around Dan Heng's and looked up at him with moist, affectionate eyes, speaking softly:

"Husband, since Mr. Poseidon has already said so... if it's within your ability, why not help her?"

Dan Heng gave a quiet "Mm," and replied, "Alright."

"Ah?"

Poseidon scratched his face, feeling a little frustrated by Gu Yuena's reaction.

Wait—how did you just brush that off so easily?

Don't you realize how much of a 'sacrifice' Dan Heng will have to make for Qian Renxue to awaken her bloodline?

At the same time, in the capital of the Fontain Empire.

Wearing a large bamboo hat and dressed in Gu Yuena's style of clothing, Zi Ji arrived at the imperial palace and was received by Di Tian and the other ministers.

Under everyone's gaze, she ascended the throne.

Her cold, piercing eyes swept over the "ministers" present.

Some were transformed soul beasts like Di Tian, others were former Star Luo nobles like Prince Zhu, and some were families who had recently joined from Spirit Hall.

At this moment, they all pledged allegiance to the Emperor of the Fontain Empire!

And this was the first time the Fontain Emperor had appeared in public. Although her face was concealed, everyone could tell she was a woman!

The crowd was filled with curiosity and awe.

What kind of powerful woman could subdue savage beasts like Di Tian?

Zi Ji gazed down from above. Though she'd felt gloomy about leaving home earlier, she now felt an unexpected thrill!

So this is what it feels like to be in charge?

All these people had to obey her now!

"Aren't you going to kneel?" Zi Ji cleared her throat and asked coldly.

"???"

Di Tian's face darkened as he glared at her.

Under normal circumstances, even in front of the emperor, full kneeling wasn't required.

Zi Ji was completely abusing her authority!

The ministers looked at each other in confusion, unsure of what to do.

Di Tian and Prince Zhu had no choice but to kneel first, setting an example for the rest.

Only then did everyone else follow suit, showing their loyalty.

Zi Ji gripped the armrest of the throne tightly, feeling even more exhilarated!

"Good, good, good! So being emperor is this fun?"

Zi Ji rejoiced inwardly.

Meanwhile, in Spirit Hall, in Heaven Dou City.

Qian Daoliu had come here at someone's invitation—to meet with Bibi Dong.

"...Bibi Dong, what do you want?" Qian Daoliu asked.

Bibi Dong replied coldly, "I've been thinking. My relationship with Xue'er has grown too distant. I want to make up for it, so I plan to offer some compensation."

"!!!"

Qian Daoliu immediately looked shocked.

Then, a flash of joy appeared in his eyes. One of the reasons he had spared Bibi Dong—who had killed his son—was precisely because of Qian Renxue!

Could Bibi Dong truly be having a change of heart?

Bibi Dong slightly curled her lips and, seeing Qian Daoliu's expression, sneered inwardly.

Letting go of Yu Xiaogang didn't mean she had forgiven Qian Xunji. Her resentment toward Qian Renxue had only lessened slightly.

The real reason for this move—

Was to use it as a justification to get closer to Dan Heng...
