Chapter 61: Why Shui Binger chose the control system
At the Dugu Mansion, Shui Bing'er and her mother, Shui Ningxin, arrived with large bags of gifts.
Dugu Bo, who was cultivating at home, felt a sense of curiosity upon hearing that the Vice Dean of Sky Water Academy had come to visit.
He couldn't recall ever having any dealings with the women from Sky Water Academy.
For someone with no prior connection to visit uninvited, Dugu Bo truly wouldn't believe it if they said there was no favor to ask.
If it had been in the past, Dugu Bo would certainly not have received them, but now his temperament had changed considerably, and he had also begun to consciously pay attention to his reputation, so he finally decided to meet the Vice Dean of Sky Water Academy.
Soon, Shui Bing'er and Shui Ningxin, having received Dugu Bo's permission, entered his mansion, and the two parties eventually met in the reception hall.
"I don't recall having any interactions with your Sky Water Academy, so what business do you have with me?"
Even though his temper had improved significantly after clearing the toxins from his body, Dugu Bo's tone of voice remained stiff when he spoke.
It made people feel a sense of dread, and even Shui Ningxin, who had already become a Soul Saint, felt considerable pressure facing Dugu Bo.
"Senior, it's like this…"
Shui Ningxin glanced at her daughter beside her, took a deep breath, and carefully began to tell Dugu Bo about Pei Qing's invitation.
She kept an eye on Dugu Bo's expression, and when she mentioned "one male and two females," she noticed the Poison Douluo's face filled with warmth and benevolence.
Immediately, she was ninety-eight percent certain that the young man named Pei Qing had not deceived Bing'er.
Bing'er joining Heaven Dou Royal Academy was indeed a good thing; the expression on Poison Douluo's face was enough to confirm that everything was true.
"To be personally invited by that Little Monster, it seems your daughter, Dean Shui, is quite extraordinary!"
Dugu Bo looked at Shui Bing'er, his gaze slightly curious.
He knew exactly how much of a monster Pei Qing was, and for such a monster to personally extend an invitation was enough to show how strong Shui Bing'er's talent truly was.
"To be honest, Senior, Bing'er's Martial Soul is the Ice Phoenix, which mutated from the Congealed Water Flying Luan, and her Innate soul power reached level 9.5."
Ice Phoenix, Innate soul power level 9.5; Dugu Bo finally understood why Pei Qing would personally invite her.
This girl named Shui Bing'er, her talent could be said to far surpass Yan Yan's; if not for those Immortal Herbs, Yan Yan's talent might not even be on the same level as hers.
"Since it's that boy Pei Qing who invited her, you can rest assured."
"For your daughter to be by his side, not to mention boundless prospects, at least her future is bright."
Shui Ningxin was delighted after hearing this, and after learning more about Pei Qing from Dugu Bo, she left the gifts and departed from Dugu Bo's mansion with Shui Bing'er.
After the mother and daughter left, Dugu Bo's expression suddenly became a bit conflicted.
He knew his granddaughter well; she was a reckless and not very intelligent person, and she probably couldn't even handle one Ye Lingling.
Now there was another Shui Bing'er, equally outstanding in appearance and talent. Tsk, did his granddaughter still have a chance?
Dugu Bo, having lived for decades, knew all too well how captivating an excellent man could be to young girls.
He didn't believe that Pei Qing's excellence would attract Shui Bing'er, so in Dugu Bo's mind, Shui Bing'er had already become his granddaughter's imaginary rival.
However, despite thinking this, he had no intention of forcibly interfering in the romantic affairs of the younger generation.
Shaking his head, Yan Yan was his Dugu Bo's granddaughter. If she set her mind to it, she should… probably… still be able to handle that brat Pei Qing, right?
Elders always have a certain expectation for their children, and Dugu Bo was no exception.
… …
Heaven Dou Royal Academy
Pei Qing saw Shui Bing'er again, and seeing her in a Heaven Dou Royal Academy uniform, he immediately understood her choice.
"Welcome to the team, Bing'er! Let's work hard together in the future!"
Pei Qing extended his hand with a smile; he was generally very happy to have recruited Shui Bing'er.
"Please guide me, Captain!"
Shui Bing'er held Pei Qing's hand, a look of enjoyment on her face, feeling the Qi from Pei Qing's body.
She felt that her soul power circulated much faster than before.
Shui Bing'er's addition expanded the team to four people. Pei Qing also fulfilled his promise, not only by specially inviting Ye Renxin to help Shui Bing'er formulate suitable potions, but giving her several thousand-year-old and one ten-thousand-year-old Whale Rubber.
Shui Bing'er did not understand Whale Rubber. Coming from the northern part of the Heaven Dou Empire, she had never been near the ocean since childhood and had never heard of such a thing as Whale Rubber.
When she learned that this item had an aphrodisiac effect, her small face instantly flushed red, and she almost threw the item in her hand directly onto the ground.
Her adorable appearance made Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling giggle with laughter.
Pei Qing shook his head and, without concealment, directly stated that Whale Rubber could improve physical fitness.
"Pei Qing, thank you for trusting me. I will keep this a secret."
Shui Bing'er was a clever girl. Upon learning the effects of Whale Rubber, she instantly understood its value and the interests behind it.
To thank Pei Qing for his trust, she directly chose to swear by her Martial Soul.
Listening to her assurance, Pei Qing once again understood Shui Bing'er.
He secretly praised the girl's wisdom, believing that one Shui Bing'er was worth three Dugu Yan.
Forget it, three Dugu Yan would just be a pure negative number.
"Bing'er, I heard from Grandpa that your Martial Soul is an Ice Phoenix!"
"So, are you an attack system Soul Master?"
Dugu Yan leaned close to Shui Bing'er, embraced her, and asked with sparkling eyes.
A Phoenix Martial Soul, ah, that was a powerful Martial Soul not inferior to a True Dragon.
It was Dugu Yan's first time encountering one, and she was curious about how powerful a Phoenix Martial Soul truly was.
"I am a control system Martial Soul Master. Because my Ice Phoenix Martial Soul mutated, its ice attribute is very violent. If I were an attack system Soul Master, I wouldn't be able to control the ice attribute within my body very well, which could easily lead to a backlash!"
Shui Bing'er shook her head, a hint of melancholy in her expression.
"So that's how it is. No wonder you chose the path of a control system!"
Pei Qing understood somewhat. Shui Bing'er's Ice Phoenix mutated from their family's inherited Martial Soul, the Congealed Water Flying Luan.
And mutated Martial Souls are more or less impure, which is why Shui Bing'er couldn't be an attack system Soul Master and could only choose the control system.
"So that's how it is, but it's not entirely unresolvable!"
"As long as the violent ice attribute within your body, Bing'er, can be purified, then you can return to the path of an attack system Soul Master."
Pei Qing pondered for a moment, then spoke in a deep voice.
"Pei Qing, do you have a solution?"
Dugu Yan asked in surprise.
Shui Bing'er and Ye Lingling also turned their heads, somewhat curious.
