Douluo: Danheng just want to avoid trouble, Gu Yuena Pursues.-Chapter 265: A Thousand Streams of Twisting
Chapter 265 - 265: A Thousand Streams of Twisting
Dan Heng couldn't help but feel fortunate — that Sea God fellow had a limited cultural background, and the riddle's level was not high. There were too many possible interpretations.
He had to work backward from the answer to realize that the riddle's solution was actually his own name.
"赤心" (sincere heart) referred to the color red — which symbolized "丹" (Dan).
"承日月" (bearing sun and moon) subtly hinted at the character's structure, which could be tenuously associated with "Dan".
"亘" (eternal) clearly suggested continuity, and "一念" (a single thought) could also imply the "心 (heart)" radical, which combined formed the character "恒" (Heng).
He didn't get entangled with the Sea Witch. After bidding Gu Yuena farewell, he headed to the library.
The Sea Witch didn't cling to him like she usually did.
Gu Yuena's presence had conveniently removed one "nuisance" for him.
Peace returned after a long time.
Dan Heng resumed his usual routine — reading and passing time.
Now, there was one more thought in his heart: he was looking forward to the arrival of his child.
Just then—
A voice filled with anticipation rang out.
"Mr. Dan Heng, do you know Bo Saixi?"
Qian Daoliu, now dressed in casual clothes, walked over and asked curiously.
Dan Heng looked up at him. Qian Daoliu was someone who rarely interfered with him.
But now he had come personally — because of Bo Saixi?
Dan Heng looked closely at Qian Daoliu. On that mature face was a gentle smile, but hidden deep in his eyes was a faint trace of nervousness.
He didn't seem like the Grand Priest of Spirit Hall — more like... a bashful old boy in love?
Qian Daoliu subconsciously scratched his face, his gaze evasive.
He even found it hard to meet Dan Heng's slightly "scrutinizing" eyes.
"Mr. Dan Heng, I... I've actually been friends with Bo Saixi for many years..."
"Oh..." Dan Heng nodded casually.
Qian Daoliu stood at the service counter, opened his mouth, and was stunned by Dan Heng's indifferent response.
His hand slid back and forth on the desk surface.
All the demeanor of a Grand Priest had vanished!
Dan Heng watched him for a while and, seeing he still hadn't spoken, slightly shook his head and asked:
"Then what? What's the matter?"
Dan Heng's reminder brought Qian Daoliu back to his senses, and a faint blush even appeared on his face.
"Mr. Dan Heng, it's been so many years since we last met. If I visited her without warning, Bo Saixi might mind... So I was wondering if you could take me with you..."
Dan Heng frowned slightly. He was beginning to wonder if someone had possessed Qian Daoliu's body.
So shy and awkward — like a little girl.
Qian Daoliu seemed to notice Dan Heng's gaze as well, and awkwardly said:"One reason is because Spirit Hall once attacked Sea God Island, which left some bad blood between us. I didn't stop it back then..."
After all, he had been given the "just friends" card by Bo Saixi and watched her fall for Tang Chen.
Naturally, he wasn't pleased, so he didn't stop Spirit Hall's plans.
"And also... I feel there's an unfulfilled knot in my heart — and it's her. Please don't laugh, Mr. Dan Heng. I once loved Bo Saixi..."
After saying this, Qian Daoliu let out a long breath, as if he had unloaded a thousand-pound burden.
Dan Heng replied with a soft "Mm", showing no emotional reaction even after hearing such a juicy secret.
"Alright, I'll take leave this afternoon, stop by Spirit Hall to check on Qian Renxue, then take you to see Bo Saixi."
Dan Heng thought that he owed Qian Daoliu a favor, and also had received one from Bo Saixi.
Might as well use this opportunity to resolve both.
Qian Daoliu immediately looked overjoyed. "Thank you, Mr. Dan Heng!"
Just the thought of seeing his dream lover again made Qian Daoliu feel years younger.
He fantasized about how their meeting might go.
With Mr. Dan Heng vouching for him, and given how much he had changed, maybe Bo Saixi would finally accept him?
Dan Heng, however, didn't care about any of this trivial stuff.
Afternoon.
Dan Heng and Qian Daoliu headed to Spirit Hall.
Dan Heng had disguised himself, hiding his true appearance.
Qian Daoliu accompanied him inside, whispering:
"Mr. Dan Heng, thanks to you, Bibi Dong and Xue'er's relationship has really improved."
"???" Dan Heng was momentarily stunned.
What did he do? How could he have caused such an effect?
While still confused, the two of them stepped into the main hall.
The doors closed behind them.
Inside, two gorgeous women with vastly different temperaments were holding hands, chatting intimately.
Seeing this scene, Qian Daoliu couldn't help but grin.
Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue looked over and smiled brightly at Dan Heng.
"Mr. Dan Heng, it's great that you could come!"
Qian Renxue walked forward to greet him.
But Bibi Dong overtook her with quick steps, saying,"Mr. Dan Heng, I was so rude last time — I truly apologize..."
Qian Renxue looked at Bibi Dong's back in confusion.Something felt off about her.
She had hesitated for a moment and now was trailing behind.
Bibi Dong reached Dan Heng first. Her stunning face was full of enthusiastic smiles.
There was no trace of her previous cold pride.
Dan Heng shook his head, ignoring her enthusiasm. He said bluntly:
"Show me the Angelic Holy Sword."
Bibi Dong looked at Qian Renxue, then casually summoned several chairs with a flash of light and said:
"Let's sit and talk, Mr. Dan Heng. This isn't something that can be resolved so easily."
Qian Renxue caught up and nodded in agreement:
"That's right, Mr. Dan Heng. I've actually dreamed about you a lot..."
As she spoke, she summoned the Angelic Holy Sword. It shone with golden light, then quickly dimmed, forming into a brilliant holy sword.
She sat beside Dan Heng and handed the sword to him.
Bibi Dong sat on his other side, leaning in slightly — seemingly focused on the sword — but her position made most of her body press lightly against Dan Heng.
She handled it with just enough restraint to not actually make contact.
So Dan Heng couldn't really say anything about it.
He pulled out the sword effortlessly.
This meant the Angelic God recognized him. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓
All three of them — Qian Renxue, Bibi Dong, and Qian Daoliu — couldn't help but feel a chill in their hearts.
There was no one but Dan Heng who could draw the Holy Sword so easily!
Dan Heng looked at the sword, sensing the divine angelic power within — it was likely the final "key."
To let Qian Renxue awaken completely, this "key" was essential.
"Did the Angelic God in your dreams tell you how to fully awaken?" Dan Heng asked calmly.
Qian Renxue blushed, nodded, and lowered her head, not daring to look at him.
"She did... Mr. Dan Heng, but it all requires your cooperation..."
Qian Renxue answered shyly and nervously.
It had been the Angelic God's greatest regret — to never have had an "intimate" connection with Dan Heng.
Naturally, she was more than willing.
She hadn't dared to dream about it before.
But now things were different.
The Sea God had exchanged a personal favor to bring him here — what if Mr. Dan Heng was truly willing?
Bibi Dong's gaze immediately turned cold, then quickly concealed it.
Her hand resting on her knee quietly clenched into a fist.
Dan Heng remained silent for a moment, gazing at the Angelic Holy Sword — and did not respond.
