Douluo: Soul Devouring Spider King

Chapter 126 What if one day many people want to kill me, and you can’t defeat them (I)

A cool breeze entered the room, blowing away the dull feeling.

Qian Renxue first filled Xiaodong's teacup to 8%, then poured herself a full cup. After a small stain of guilt-stained water spilled onto the table, she regained her usual smile:

"Since Xiaodong is so active, then I'll ask."

"Your Highness Qinghe, please."

Two sentences, like a light conversation between friends, diluted the previous unhappiness:

"Who is Xiaodong?"

These four simple words were the core of all the events. Qian Renxue looked straight at him, thinking that Xiaodong would tell her the truth, but she shook her head:

"I'm sorry, I don't want to hide it from His Highness Qinghe, but this matter concerns my life and death."

Xiaodong's expression was very serious. Qian Renxue frowned slightly, realizing that Xiaodong was not joking: "Oh? Xiaodong has a lot of enemies? Are they very powerful?"

"Too many to imagine." Xiaodong nodded with a heavy expression at first, then smiled cutely: "Perhaps His Highness Qinghe will become my enemy and think about how to kill me."

"..." Qian Renxue frowned deeply, wanting to continue asking, but seeing Xiaodong pretending to be relaxed but unable to hide the sadness between his brows, she felt a blockage in her chest for no reason, and avoided the topic for the time being, and asked instead: "So, were all the things that happened in the past few days caused by Xiaodong?"

"good."

"Are you alone?"

"Ah."

Qian Renxue couldn't help but look at Xiaodong, but she only saw sincerity on that cute face.

"It turns out that all this is true... My guess is correct. Xiaodong is not just as cute as she looks on the surface. She has a brain as smart as a demon!"

Then the next question comes along!

Xiao Dong picked up the teacup and took a gentle sip, then said with a smile, "His Highness Qinghe wants to ask why?"

Qian Renxue also picked up the teacup and took a sip with a smile.

"All of this is naturally to attract and get closer to His Highness Qinghe."

"It's really for me." Qian Renxue said with emotion: "Xiaodong's honesty surprised me, what's the purpose?"

Without waiting for Xiaodong to answer, she smiled playfully: "You don't want to be my crown princess, do you?"

It was obviously a joke to liven up the atmosphere, but Xiaodong actually nodded!

Ah this...

Qian Renxue's facial muscles twitched violently. The truth she was most worried about appeared!

There is no way that Xiaodong and I can win no matter what!

Looking at Xiaodong with shining eyes, Qian Renxue seemed extremely hesitant, even wondering whether to reveal her identity as the young master of the Spirit Hall, or just reveal that she was a woman?

'The fact that Prince Tiandou is a woman... Xiaodong shouldn't tell anyone, right? '

"Well... Xiaodong, I really think of you as..." Just when she was panicking, Xiaodong smiled and said:

"younger sister?"

what?

Qian Renxue looked at Xiaodong who was winking and smiling, and immediately came to her senses. She was fooled by Xiaodong! Just as she was about to say something in a bad mood, Xiaodong interrupted her:

"I didn't lie to Your Highness Qinghe~ I really intend to be your Crown Princess."

"Forehead……"

Xiaodong picked up the teacup with both hands but did not taste it. She sighed softly with her pink lips:

"In fact, I didn't plan to enter Tiandou Royal Academy at first. After entering the Spirit Temple and successfully deceiving Sarath, I planned to get to know you directly through him, but I didn't expect Sarath to be very reluctant about it."

"I guess it's because I took into account my identity as a princess and the political problems that would arise after I came into contact with His Highness Qinghe. A guy at the level of a bishop of the Spirit Hall actually had such concerns. I immediately realized that it was a mistake."

“So we can only activate the backup plan.”

"Are there any backup plans?" Qian Renxue couldn't help but laugh: "Tiandou Royal Academy?"

"good."

"Although I did go there after hearing about Xiaodong's title as the princess, what if I didn't go at that time?" Qian Renxue was confused about this. The reason I went there was because of my true identity, but Xiaodong didn't know it. How could she be sure that I would definitely go?

Or is there a backup plan?

Xiaodong smiled and said, "Your Highness Qinghe still remembers your brother, right?"

"Avalanche?" Qian Renxue raised her eyebrows again: "I heard that you helped Avalanche solve the problem before, and he also established a Royal Knights in public in the academy... Could it be that he is Xiaodong's contingency plan?"

Qian Renxue immediately realized that if she didn't go, Xiaodong would get to know Xue Beng, and maybe even become his... When she thought of this, she felt a sudden blockage in her heart for no reason, and a nameless anger erupted.

How dare that useless playboy touch Xiaodong?

In fact, Qian Renxue only guessed half right. If she hadn't gone at that time, Xiaodong would indeed choose Avalanche, but he would only go to his house as a guest and get to know the 'Fourth Prince of Tiandou' as the 'Princess of the Spirit Hall'. Then, whether as the Crown Prince of Tiandou or the Young Master of the Spirit Hall, Qian Renxue could not sit still!

Of course Xiaodong would not say this. He glanced at Qian Renxue who looked unhappy, and a smile flashed across his lips.

"Fortunately, Lord Qinghe has arrived."

Qian Renxue heaved a sigh of relief after hearing this. After all, the unpleasant situation in her mind did not occur in reality. However, she still could not help but belittle him: "Everyone knows that my foolish brother Xue Beng is a playboy. He has a bad character and acts rashly. It was a very correct decision for Xiaodong not to choose him."

"No."

It was just a casual complaint, but Xiao Dong denied her evaluation. Facing Qian Renxue's surprise, Xiao Dong said: "His Highness Xue Beng is indeed lacking in many aspects, but he can become a qualified emperor."

"Oh?" Qian Renxue frowned, her face almost showing 'disagreement'. Xiaodong smiled and said:

"Tiandou is ruled by countless nobles rather than the Xue royal family. The emperor of Tiandou does not need to be very smart or even have a great vision. He only needs to listen to the nobles' advice, meet their demands, and ensure their interests. Then he can sit on the throne and be supported by them."

What this means is that the emperor does not have the final say in Tiandou. Even if you, Qian Renxue, seize the throne through a plan, you may not be able to join forces with the Spirit Hall in the name of the emperor, or destroy Tiandou through your personal will, because not all Tiandou nobles are willing to submit to the Spirit Hall, and will not allow the emperor to do whatever he wants.

As long as you infringe upon the interests of the nobles, no matter who you are, you must go down.

Yes, Xiaodong wrote down the side quest 'Stop Qian Renxue's Killing Feast' that suddenly popped up. Of course, she didn't expect that this simple analysis would make her give up her undercover plan, and she was not doing useless work.

Xiaodong just left a seed in her mind that the hidden plan might not be reliable~

Qian Renxue was indeed lost in thought, but what she was thinking at this moment was probably different from what Xiaodong expected: "Xue Beng is indeed a waste, but if he has Xiaodong's help..."

Glancing at Xiaodong who was sipping fresh tea, Qian Renxue frowned deeply: "And my guess is right, that woman will not stop Xiaodong from intruding, but will persuade Grandpa to use a two-pronged approach..."

To put it simply, Bibi Dong would agree to Xiaodong becoming Avalanche... Impossible!

Qian Renxue was extremely certain that if that piece of trash dared to touch Xiaodong, she would kill him even at the risk of exposing her identity!

Fortunately, none of this happened.
