Douluo V: I was reborn as a snake. It makes sense to have many children and more blessings.

In the girls' dormitory of Shrek Academy, Qin Shou's figure was looming in the white. He was like a trapped tiger, struggling to break free from the crystal clear white jade shackles that seemed to be condensed from moonlight.

Sweat beads slid down his taut muscles, and every struggle seemed to be a fight against some mysterious force between heaven and earth.

At the same time, in the prosperous Tiandou City, Nalan Xiong was carefully planning a visit concerning the future situation according to Xue Qinghe's invitation.

He moved hurriedly between various families and sects, like a chess piece moving on a chessboard, and every move was carefully considered.

After the first round of extensive contact, Nalan Xiong had a deeper understanding of the situation in Tiandou City.

During the second round of visits, he was more targeted and came to the Xia family with a clear goal - an ancient family with a deep foundation, but there were no strong people above the Soul Douluo level within the family.

The Xia family’s mansion is simple and elegant, revealing the vicissitudes of time.

When Nalan Xiong stepped into the mansion, a peaceful and tranquil atmosphere hit him. He smiled and bowed to Xia Shanhe, the head of the Xia family, and said, "Brother Xia, how are you?"

Xia Shanhe is a tall and strong middle-aged man with a calm face and deep eyes.

When he saw Nalan Xiong, he nodded slightly and said, "Brother Nalan, thank you for visiting my humble abode again. However, I have already made our Xia family's position clear last time. We will neither join the Spirit Hall nor the Royal Family's Worship Hall. We just want to live a peaceful and stable life in Tiandou City."

Nalan Xiong did not show any displeasure when he heard this. He knew very well that the Xia family's position was firm and would not change easily.

But he also understood that Tiandou City was in a precarious situation at the moment, and the choice of any family could affect the direction of the entire situation.

Therefore, Nalan Xiong did not give up the idea of ​​persuading the Xia family. He smiled and said, "Brother Xia, I understand your concerns. But have you ever thought that the current situation in Tiandou City is unpredictable, and only unity can tide over the difficulties. As one of the famous families in Tiandou City, if the Xia family can join the Worship Hall to jointly resist foreign invasion, they will surely receive full support from the royal family. By then, the reputation and status of the Xia family will be greatly enhanced."

After hearing this, Xia Shanhe fell into deep thought. He understood that Nalan Xiong's words were not groundless, but the Xia family's long-standing neutral stance made him hesitant.

However, in this chaotic world, neutrality often means being marginalized or even annexed. If the Xia family wants to gain a foothold in this chaotic world, they will have to make a choice sooner or later.

Nalan Xiong saw this and knew that his words had worked. He continued, "Brother Xia, time is running out. The power of the Spirit Hall is growing and its ambitions are growing. Tiandou City is in danger. Only if we work together can we protect our home. If the Xia family can join the Worship Hall, they will surely become a powerful assistant to the royal family and jointly resist foreign invasions."

Xia Shanhe stood in the ancient courtyard of the manor, surrounded by towering ancient trees, and every leaf seemed to be telling the vicissitudes of a thousand years.

He took a deep breath, as if he wanted to absorb all the pressure in the world into his lungs, and then slowly exhaled, his voice filled with helplessness and determination.

"Brother Nalan, I understand what you mean. The Spirit Hall is ambitious and will make a move sooner or later. However, Brother Nalan, you also know that although my Xia family has a deep foundation and a long history, we really don't have the qualifications to participate at this moment."

Xia Shanhe looked into the distance, his heart filled with waves.

Of course he understood that if Brother Nalan's plan succeeded, it would be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for their family.

But the reality is cruel. The Xia family's martial soul inheritance is like a winding river. Although its source is deep, the rapids and reefs along the way make their martial soul inheritance journey full of uncertainty.

The most powerful ancestor of their family, the powerful man who once dominated the world, is now stuck in the awkward position of level 79 in terms of soul power. Now that he has no hope of breaking through, he naturally cannot bring more glory and voice to the family.

The younger generation makes him even more worried.

Although they have good talents, they seem so insignificant in this era where there are so many strong people.

Xia Shanhe's brows were furrowed, his heart was full of struggle. He knew that he had to make a choice, but the situation made it difficult for him to make a final decision.

Nalan Xiong stood beside Xia Shanhe, the breeze gently blowing his sleeves, his deep eyes seemed to contain the stars and the sea, flashing with the light of wisdom and determination.

He understood Xia Shanhe's doubts and troubles at the moment. It was because of this understanding that he decided to make a second visit at this delicate moment.

Nalan Xiong smiled gently, and that smile revealed a hint of cunning and confidence. He spoke slowly, and his voice was as gentle as the spring breeze.

"Brother Xia, I believe you have heard of the legendary girl of the Yun family, the girl who possesses a rare top-level martial spirit in the world, but cannot cultivate due to some unknown power in her body. And the girl of the Yan family who is praised as a rare talent in a century, but she has not even awakened the most ordinary useless martial spirit. The strangeness of this must have made you curious."

Xia Shanhe frowned slightly when he heard this. He had indeed heard the rumors about the two little girls. These two things had caused quite a stir in the soul master world, especially among the hidden sects.

But he really didn't understand why Nalan Xiong would bring up these two seemingly unrelated topics at this time. He couldn't help but turn his head to look at Nalan Xiong, his eyes full of confusion.

Nalan Xiong seemed to see Xia Shanhe's confusion. He smiled and continued, "Brother Xia, the reason why I mentioned these two girls is because I know that one of them successfully broke through her own shackles, and the other completed the second awakening through a special method. And I happen to know the key to this."

Upon hearing this, Xia Shanhe couldn't help but feel curious and expectant. He knew that Nalan Xiong would never do anything without a purpose.

So, he turned around, looked directly at Nalan Xiong and asked, "Oh? What do you mean, Brother Nalan?"

Nalan Xiong saw this and did not elaborate any more. He said directly, "Brother Xia, I know that your daughter has not awakened her martial spirit either. Don't you want to let her try? You know, the girl from the Yan family has awakened an incredible martial spirit."

After hearing this, Xia Shanhe was shocked. He had never thought that his daughter would have a chance to awaken her martial soul. After all, in such a long time, no one in the continent had ever heard of anyone being able to awaken a second time.

His eyes widened instantly and he stared at Nalan Xiong closely, as if he wanted to see more information from his eyes.
