Douluo: Why is Qian Renxue not in love anymore?

Chapter 38: Vast Sea and Universe Cover (3)

Xue Qinghe's lips curled up into a warm smile, "Royal brother, you are right, we are all brothers, why should we be so formal. If Hai Zang knew that you and I are so concerned about his future, he would definitely be touched."

He paused, and looked out the window at the starry night sky with gentle eyes, as if he could penetrate the night and see the distant future: "I remember when we were young, the three brothers chased and played within the palace walls. We were so carefree at that time. Now, each of us has our own burdens, but we have not forgotten our original intentions. Brother Huang, in the future, the four of us brothers will join hands and will surely protect the stability and prosperity of the Tiandou Empire."

Xue Qinghe gently stroked the Vast Sea Universe Cover, his eyes flashing with longing and determination for the future. He stood up, bowed deeply to Xue Luochuan, and said in a gentle but powerful voice: "Brother, I still have some things to deal with, so I'll take my leave first."

Xue Luochuan and Xue Qinghe's eyes met unexpectedly in the light of the candlelight, and an indescribable gleam of calculation flashed across the depths of their eyes at the same time.

This light is like a cheetah lurking in the night, sharp and profound, yet cleverly concealed by the superficial warmth and harmony.

A barely perceptible smile appeared on Xue Luochuan's lips, and that smile showed his confidence in the layout of power.

Xue Qinghe's eyes were a little more profound, as if he was thinking about how to gain more bargaining chips for himself in this silent game of power.

After Xue Qinghe left, Xue Luochuan taunted softly, and seemed to be talking to himself:

"Second brother, second brother, you wanted third brother to take the position, but I'm afraid he doesn't have the chance. What a pity, it's all your fault for having such thoughts."

Xue Luochuan sighed softly, tapped the desk with his fingertips, and thought to himself. Suddenly, there was a slight movement in the dark of the study, and a dark guard in night clothes quietly appeared, knelt on one knee, and whispered: "Your Highness, there is a secret report that the Xingluo Empire has been making frequent moves recently, and it seems that there is a plot against our Tiandou Empire."

Xue Luochuan's eyes were stern, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth. He waved his hand to signal the secret guards to come closer, and whispered: "Give this information to the third prince. Doesn't he like fighting? Then let him die on the battlefield."

After saying that, the study returned to silence again, leaving only Xue Luochuan's eyes, as deep as the night sky, flashing with wisdom and cunning, as if he had already laid a dragnet in this silent contest.

"..."

On the other side, in the secret room of Xue Qinghe's mansion, a figure stretched out in the dim candlelight, appearing particularly mysterious and lonely. The figure slowly turned around, and it was Qian Renxue who had been lurking for many years as Xue Qinghe.

Her face was filled with an unconcealable joy, a smug smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, and her eyes were shining with a confident light.

She gently stroked the Hanhai Qiankun Cover in her hand. The sapphire-like triangle looked even more dazzling in the dim light, as if it contained endless secrets and power.

Qian Renxue said to herself in her heart: "Royal brother, oh, Royal brother, you still underestimated my plan. This Vast Sea Universe Cover is not only a divine weapon, but also an important part of my plan."

"Now you should feel the threat from behind. I think they have already attacked the Third Prince Xue Haizang. As long as I don't do it myself, once the Third Prince dies, plus the evolved Eight-Winged Angel Martial Spirit, even Tang San's - Purple-Level Demon Eyes will not be able to see through my disguise."

"This way, no one will know that I am in disguise. Then I can throw the evidence of your murder of the Third Prince directly in the face of the old emperor. I don't need to do anything, and the old man will not let you go."

"You have to know that the power change in the Tiandou Empire is different from the power change in the Xingluo Empire, which is full of blood and conspiracy. The inheritance of the Tiandou Empire focuses more on the purity of blood and the harmony of the family."

"So as long as you dare to make a move against the Third Prince Xue Haizang, then only death will await you. As for Xue Beng, he will have to keep disguising himself for the rest of his life. When I unify the Douluo Continent, that will be the day he dies!" Inside the dim secret room, the candlelight flickered, shining on Qian Renxue's chiseled face, adding a bit of sinisterness and determination.

She walked lightly to a corner of the secret room, where there was an exquisite chessboard. The black and white chess pieces were arranged in an orderly manner, seeming to contain the secrets of heaven and earth.

"Grandpa Thorny Porpoise, Grandpa Snake Spear, hasn't that old guy Du Gubo been found yet?" Qian Renxue's voice was low and cold, like an icicle in a cold night, piercing through the air and striking people's hearts.

As soon as he finished speaking, two black shadows appeared out of thin air, one fat and one thin, they were the Thorny Porpoise Douluo and the Snake Spear Douluo. Although their figures were not very conspicuous, the fluctuations of soul power surrounding them were something that people could not underestimate.

The figures of Thorny Porpoise Douluo and Snake Lance Douluo were like ghosts in the night, standing silently on both sides of Qian Renxue.

Snake Spear Douluo said, "No, in the past five years, we have searched every corner of the continent, from the far north to the endless desert, from the dark forest to the vast ocean, but we still can't find any news about that little thing Du Gubo."

Qian Renxue frowned slightly when she heard this, and a hint of barely perceptible anger flashed in her deep eyes. She raised her hand slightly, and tapped a black piece on the chessboard with her fingertips, as if she was setting up an invisible chess game.

Threaten with his family? No, that old man's fighting ability is not that strong, but if he is forced into a corner and attacks the Spirit Hall in secret, it will be more trouble than gain.

Qian Renxue slowly stood up, looking at Thorny Porpoise Douluo and Snake Lance Douluo, and said in a low and powerful voice: "If there is any news about Du Gubo, no matter where you are, inform my grandfather immediately. Remember, you must act cautiously and not alert the enemy. Although Du Gubo is arrogant, he is also a tough opponent. We cannot give him any chance to fight back."

After she finished speaking, she waved her sleeves lightly, and an invisible wave of soul power emanated from her body, instantly filling the entire secret room, as if even the air had solidified.

Thorny Porpoise Douluo and Snake Lance Douluo felt this soul power, and both of them were extremely surprised. Level 54? Xiaoxue broke through another level in this month.

At the age of 12, his soul power has reached level 54, making him worthy of being the inheritor of the angel martial spirit.

Just when Thorny Porpoise Douluo was about to speak, a gentle but somewhat urgent knock on the door came from outside, interrupting the quiet atmosphere of the dim secret room.

Qian Renxue was slightly startled, then she put away her cold expression and returned to her gentle and elegant appearance. He slowly stood up, straightened his clothes, and a hint of complex emotions flashed in his eyes.

The Thorny Porpoise Douluo and Snake Lance Douluo had disappeared long ago and hid in the dark.

After walking out of the secret room and returning to her original appearance as Xue Qinghe, Qian Renxue spoke: "Come in."

The door opened slightly, and a maid dressed in gorgeous palace clothes walked into the study with her head lowered and her eyes lowered. She held an exquisite tray in her hand, on which was a token engraved with a golden dragon pattern, which was the symbol of imperial power.

The maid knelt and saluted, her voice clear and pleasant: "Your Highness, the Second Prince, His Majesty has ordered that you go to the Tiandou Royal Academy immediately. It seems that the golden generation of the Spirit Hall has arrived. I heard that they are here to exchange and learn. His Majesty specifically asked you to go and receive them to show the importance and friendship of our Tiandou Empire."

"How is this possible?" Qian Renxue was confused. This script was wrong. Didn't this happen in the previous life?
Qian Renxue came back to her senses and said calmly, "I understand. I'll go right away."
