Douluo: I level up alone

The young man blocking the road felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave. He felt as if he was being watched by a cold and poisonous snake at this moment. He swallowed his saliva, and the shameful and angry emotions were like a fire extinguished by cold water, and disappeared without a trace with a hiss. .

Cheng Xiao noticed the young man's trembling fingers. The fluctuations in his soul power dissipated instantly, and he had no intention of taking action against him. There were soul masters in Yuexuan who maintained order. Small conflicts could be resolved privately, but if he disrupted the order of the dance, someone would throw him away. go out.

He looked around and made a silent mockery of the evasive eyes around him.

noble? Ah!

The nobles and soul masters stood above the common people, like the rulers of the continent.

But in fact, nobles and soul masters are different!

The confidence of soul masters comes from their strength. They may be rude, but they have the confidence to overturn the table.

What the nobles are proud of is the decadent title, an illusory title, but it is surrounded by everyone's brainless support. They bully the weak and fear the strong, but no one overthrows their rule.

It's strange that in a world filled with force, these two kinds of people can coexist with each other. It's really hard to understand. Perhaps the Wuhun Palace is useless. After so many years, it has not been able to wipe out this rotten system.

Therefore, when Cheng Xiao faced a powerful soul master like Dugu Bo, he showed humility and showed the gentle side of human nature to avoid arousing the soul master's resentment. Always show respect to those who wield force, otherwise they will use their fists to teach you what respect is.

But when facing the nobles, they have to show their strong side and break the established hierarchy in their hearts. Otherwise, it would be like this now, not even Qian Renxue could get close.

As for why Cheng Xiao is not afraid of them flipping the table?

Anyone who has the ability to lift a table has gone to Tiandou Royal Academy. What is he doing in Yuexuan? Yuexuan doesn't teach martial arts or cultivation.

All nobles who can cultivate will be sent to the Tiandou Royal Academy. Only those with useless martial souls or those without innate soul power will come to Yuexuan to learn etiquette. After graduation, they will rely on the connections here to get married, and finally intervene in the power field. .

Soul Master Academy and Yuexuan are two completely different routes, and they are completely different from each other.

Here, without taking action, Cheng Xiao can scare whoever he wants. To a certain extent, he can be regarded as the king of monkeys without tigers in the mountains.

As for leaving Yuexuan, the soul master invited by the nobles taught him how to behave...

Haha, not to mention that he now has Ye Renxin as a backer. Even if he doesn't, he will not be bullied by ordinary soul masters. He has no fear under the soul king. Only if he is above the Soul King, he needs to rely on the shadow soul beast to gamble his life with all his strength and fight for a chance of survival.

There are no nobles who can ask for the support of the Soul Emperor... but he still has the favor of Ye Renxin and Dugu Bo. Who is afraid of whom?

After frightening the malicious gazes and suppressing the nobles who were about to make a move, Cheng Xiao stepped forward and, under Xue Qinghe's solemn gaze, extended his hand to Xue Ke who was standing aside.

"Your Highness, may I invite you to dance?"

Everyone's mandibles slowly drooped, dumbfounded.

The shock on Xue Qinghe's face flashed away. He originally thought that the other party came to see him, but he didn't expect that he just came to invite Xue Ke to dance?

Xue Ke was also a little surprised, with some confusion in his eyes.

But everyone's eyes were focused here, and Xue Ke hesitated for a moment. There were also low-pitched jeers all around.

The young man blocking the road was originally ashamed and wanted to leave, but after seeing this scene, he suddenly chuckled.

Where does this wild boy come from and wants to invite the princess to dance? Are you dreaming?

So what if you are a soul master? Title is a natural barrier. The royal family has countless loyal soul masters. Who do you think you are? Dance with the princess without getting her hands dirty!

Cheng Xiao turned a deaf ear, but did not care about Xue Ke's reaction. Facing Xue Qinghe's scrutinizing gaze, he raised his head, smiled and nodded, with skillful movements, as if the two were already familiar with each other. It was no different from that day when we said goodbye in the hotel.

In an instant, Xue Qinghe was awakened by the nodding movement, and the familiar face finally appeared in his mind!

"It's him! The boy next to Ye Renxin!" Xue Qinghe suddenly realized.

No wonder he didn't think of it immediately. As a prince, the people around him were like crucian carp crossing the river. He couldn't remember every one of them.

Just like the nobles who came to talk to him today, not many of them impressed him, and most of them would be forgotten the next day.

When he met Ye Renxin, although he was grateful for the young man's introduction, he didn't take it too seriously. His status as prince provided him with countless conveniences. Wherever he went, someone would take the initiative to introduce him, saving him from the embarrassment of self-introduction. . Cheng Xiao is just one of them.

Now that he thought about it, Xue Qinghe had just officially noticed this inconspicuous young man. His thoughts turned slightly and he thought that he wanted to inquire about Ye Renxin's purpose of coming to Tiandou City. Maybe he could get some information from this boy.

Xue Qinghe patted Xue Ke's arm between his arms without saying anything, and Xue Ke instantly understood what he meant.

The confusion on Xue Ke's face was like a flash of snow, replaced by a slightly surprised smile.

She stretched out her jade hand and gently placed it on Cheng Xiao's hand under everyone's incredulous gaze.

"I accept your invitation!"

The two walked into the arena and danced gracefully to the sound of music.

The contemptuous glances of all the nobles disappeared. They glanced at the expression on the prince's face, and then ordered the people around him with a solemn expression.

"Ask Yuexuan about where this kid came from!"

"Go and ask, where does this kid live? What is his identity! What is his name? What is his soul power level! I want to know everything!"

The boy who blocked the road froze with a smile on his face. The whispers around him were not directed at him, but they were like sharp knives piercing his chest.

Various emotions of shame, anger, shame, and jealousy were brewing in his heart. At this time, he felt that his face was completely lost in front of all the nobles. He makes people laugh like a circus monkey.

Unable to stay any longer, the young man who blocked the way lowered his head, wanting to cover his face, and left the banquet hall as if he was running away.

Xue Qinghe didn't pay attention to the surprised and suspicious looks of others. He looked at the two people dancing gracefully in the field, his eyes were a little wandering, and he gently twirled the wine glass with his fingers, thinking about how to get words out of the young man's mouth later.

"Who are you?" Xue Ke had a smile on her lips, her gaze changed with the dance, and there was spring in her eyes, as if she was immersed in singing and dancing, but the next moment, the voice coming out of her lips was cold and indifferent. curious.

"Well, I am your dance partner at the moment." Cheng Xiao joked casually.

He has no interest in Xue Ke. To him, this so-called princess is just a vase, a tool who has a relationship with Xue Qinghe.

Xue Qinghe's movements did not avoid his gaze. At this moment, Cheng Xiao already knew that Xue Qinghe had recognized him. It would be much easier next time. Xue Ke's role was no longer significant.

"Oh, your purpose is obviously not me." Xue Ke swayed, and her smiling lips made it impossible to tell that she was speaking, "You just want to rely on me to attract the attention of the crown prince brother. I can't help you relieve your embarrassment." Benefactor, are you just lying in return? This behavior is not gentlemanly."

"I thought this was a very gentlemanly answer." Cheng Xiao glanced at her. The white greasy on her chest was a bit too dazzling, but it was not spectacular. It was like a budding flower bone, which did not arouse Cheng Xiao's interest.

This is the body of a normal girl. Soul masters have developed too early. Under the stimulation of soul power and soul rings, all of them have lost their youth.

"Why should you care, Your Highness? This is just a show, an appetizer for a formal conversation between politicians. After today, you will no longer be needed to bridge the communication between me and the prince. You and I will never have any interactions again."

It means that you are just a tool. After dancing, you can go and cool down wherever you go!

Xue Ke's silver teeth were almost broken, but the spring breeze still remained on her face. She buried her cheek on Cheng Xiao's shoulder and said harshly: "Aren't you afraid that I will tell the prince brother your purpose and ruin your life?" A good thing?"

"Then I have to thank Your Highness the Princess." Cheng Xiao didn't care. "I don't mind that the prince knows my purpose. This is my sincerity. I showed my value and the prince helped me achieve my goal. Politicians never One will dislike a person because of his emotions. If the prince is swayed by his emotions, then he is not worthy of loyalty, right?"

Xue Ke was stunned. She didn't expect that the person in front of her would be so calm. In the past, who wouldn't kneel down on one knee and swear allegiance excitedly as long as he could get the favor of the prince?

But what did she hear today? A wild boy with unknown origins swore that he would not be loyal to the prince if he could not satisfy him? The situation is reversed. Doesn't he know who is in charge?

But this is indeed Cheng Xiao's true thought.

Love brain is not a big problem, but if he doesn't even have any political literacy, there is no need for him to place all his hopes on her. It would be better to contact Qibao Glazed Sect or Wuhun Palace as soon as possible.

It doesn't matter who unites the continent, whether it's Tiandou Empire, Star Luo Empire or Wuhun Palace, it doesn't make much difference to Cheng Xiao.

He has no great ambitions and does not care about class. He just wants to take advantage of the opportunity to enrich his wings when he is weak, and leave when he has the strength.

Becoming a god is his ultimate goal.

Therefore, he was prepared to contact Qian Renxue as a "speculator".

In other words, there is a relatively vague "ambiguity period" between the two parties. It is like falling in love, and both parties have an investigation process. Qian Renxue is examining whether Cheng Xiao is worth winning over, and Cheng Xiao is also examining whether Qian Renxue is worthy of being the master.

The challenge in the ambiguous period is the tacit understanding between the two parties. If a consensus cannot be reached "between the lines", there is no need to talk about anything else.

Only when both parties reach an intention to cooperate will they gradually increase their efforts and finally reach a united front.

Xue Ke stopped talking and danced quietly with Cheng Xiao, his expression dark and unreadable.

The song ends and people disperse.

Cheng Xiao returned Xue Ke to Xue Qinghe, nodded with a smile, and then left. Xue Ke looked at his back with twinkling eyes.

"What did he say?" Xue Qinghe lowered his eyebrows, covered his lips with a wine glass, and asked softly.

He is confident in his control over Xue Ke. He has worked hard for many years and loves Xue Ke very much. Xue Ke will never lie to him.

As expected, Xue Ke told Xue Qinghe exactly what they had said.

Hearing this, Xue Qinghe raised his eyebrows and became more interested in Cheng Xiao: "Oh? He really said that?"

"Yeah." Xue Ke nodded.

Xue Qinghe was noncommittal, stopped asking questions, and started chatting with other nobles.

Xue Ke's eyes wandered, as if searching for that figure in the crowd, but he couldn't find it in the banquet hall for a long time. Lowering her slightly upturned eyelashes, Xue Ke felt uneasy.

Cheng Xiao has been waiting for Qian Renxue to send someone to find him.

But no one came to call for a long time.

Cheng Xiao has been tensing up, and he believes that Qian Renxue is also tensing up.

Neither of them are fools, and neither of them is willing to take the initiative.

For lovers in the ambiguous period, no one is willing to pierce the window paper first, because whoever pierces it first means that whoever loses the initiative, and this situation will not improve much for a long time to come. .

Cheng Xiao is unwilling to be manipulated by Qian Renxue at will, which means that he is too cheap and no different from other loyalists.

There is a difference between kneeling down and asking for food and standing up to ask for food. He prefers to stand and ask for food!

Qian Renxue is also unwilling to lose the initiative. He is a dignified "prince". If he cannot control an ordinary soul master, how will he show his majesty in the future?

Everyone wants to maintain the last bit of dignity.

Until the end of the banquet, Cheng Xiao could not wait to talk with Qian Renxue.

Cheng Xiao frowned, a little disappointed.

"Huh, forget it. If that's the case, then think of other ways." Cheng Xiao breathed out, not too discouraged.

Qian Renxue was not the only one to choose, he had alternatives. If Qian Renxue's path doesn't work, then she will change her goal.

After the crowd dispersed, Cheng Xiao finally walked out of Yuexuan and took a look at the sky. It was still early, so he quickly moved to Yezhai, preparing to go to Binghuo Liangyiyan tomorrow.

Two herbs, the Star Anise Ice Grass and the Fiery Apricot Jiaoshu, must be obtained. In addition, the Autumn Water Dew that can increase spiritual power is also essential. The Fragrance Qiluo Immortal Artifact that can detoxify any toxin must not be left behind. There is also …

Cheng Xiaozheng was counting the jelly grass that needed to be picked tomorrow, thinking that if Dugu Bo didn't agree, he would use the favor he promised in exchange.

As soon as he left Yuexuan, he was suddenly stopped by two huge men, side by side, almost blocking out the sunlight.

Cheng Xiao raised his head, wondering if dealing with these two people would cause a disturbance. He offended all the nobles today and had already expected this result.

"Are you Cheng Xiao?"

Cheng Xiao nodded: "What's the matter?"

"Come with us." One of them said, "His Royal Highness wants to see you."

Cheng Xiao had already summoned his soul power and was about to knock them down, but he was stunned when he heard this. Unexpectedly, Qian Renxue was willing to bow her head after the show was over.

However, it's not too late.

In the end he won. A smile appeared on Cheng Xiao's lips.

"lead the way!"

Cheng Xiao was led by the two of them to a teahouse not far from Yuexuan. He went upstairs to an attic on the highest floor. When he opened the door, he saw the gentle and elegant man.

Cheng Xiaoshi sat in front of Xue Qinghe without any humility.

Xue Qinghe raised his eyebrows but did not get angry. Instead, he poured him a cup of tea.

"what would you like?"

Cheng Xiao held the tea cup for a moment and chuckled: "What can your highness give me?"

Xue Qinghe frowned. If he ascends the throne, he will be able to give more. Can you afford it?

After thinking about it, it was obvious that the title was not what the other party wanted. Most soul masters disdained titles, especially a proud person like Cheng Xiao. Soul rings and soul bones? Oh, but are you worthy?

"I can give you whatever you want, but what is your value?"

At this point, Qian Renxue still refused to give up the initiative and tried to suppress Cheng Xiao's edge during the conversation.

I was using my mobile phone to code at the wine table, my brain was a little slow.

I stopped coding for a while and chatted for a while, intermittently, I couldn't keep up with my thoughts, and it didn't feel very good.

Alas, the ranking has dropped. I originally planned to code a little more today so I can ask for votes.

As a result, there was an impromptu dinner party, and I cried (`) and was too embarrassed to speak.

Forgive me!

It’s a big chapter of 4000 words. I’m too lazy to write it down. My mind is a little confused. Let’s just call it today ()
