Chapter 105: The Fuming Qian Renxue, Sharing the Empire with You
Chapter 105: The Fuming Qian Renxue, Sharing the Empire with You
"Young Master, you might not know, but Qin Xiao has done something significant," Citu Douluo said, his face unable to conceal his apprehension.
"Oh?"
"Something significant?"
Xue Qinghe sneered. As the Emperor of the Tian Dou Empire, being stood up after inviting someone to a banquet was indeed significant.
Thinking on a larger scale, wasn't this akin to slapping the face of the Tian Dou Empire?
He had waited all night, and just the thought of it made him furious.
"Young Master, you don't know. Qin Xiao, together with the Seven Treasure Glazed Glass Sect, has allied to destroy the Haotian Sect!" Citu Douluo once again shocked everyone with his words.
"Elder, what did you just say?"
Xue Qinghe couldn't remain seated any longer, standing up in excitement.
She found it hard to believe what she had just heard. "Elder, is what you just said true?"
"Young Master, I swear, what I said before is absolutely true. I witnessed it with my own eyes," Citu Douluo said solemnly.
He wasn't lying.
He had witnessed the great battle between Qin Xiao and others, and had secretly followed Qin Xiao and the Seven Treasure Glazed Glass Sect to the Haotian Sect, witnessing its destruction.
Although he had feared Qin Xiao discovering him and had kept his distance, there was absolutely no doubt about the truth of the matter.
"I never imagined... I truly never imagined."
"The mighty number one sect would actually be destroyed by such a young man."
Xue Qinghe's heart was filled with mixed emotions.
He never expected Qin Xiao to make such a stunning move.
"Elder Snake Lance!"
Suddenly, Xue Qinghe said solemnly to the darkness behind him.
"Young Master!"
Snake Lance Douluo, clad in battle armor, strode out of the darkness.
He bowed to Xue Qinghe and said in a deep voice, "Young Master, what are your orders?"
Xue Qinghe looked at Snake Lance Douluo and said, "Elder, please go to the Martial Soul City again. You should have heard what Elder Citu just said, right? Just report the truth back to Martial Soul City. I believe someone will make the right decision."
"In any case, their previous bargaining chips are no longer enough to sway Qin Xiao."
"Yes, I will go right away!"
Snake Lance Douluo nodded heavily, then looked at Citu Douluo and said solemnly, "Young Master's safety is entrusted to you."
Citu Douluo nodded. "Rest assured, when you're not here, you'll be even safer than when you are."
"Hmph."
Snake Lance Douluo snorted coldly, ignoring Citu Douluo and disappearing into the shadows again.
At this moment, Citu Douluo's face changed, and he said in a deep voice, "Young Master, the person you've been waiting for has finally arrived."
"Qin Xiao!"
"Good, he's here!"
Xue Qinghe said in a deep voice, then made a startling move.
He reached out and tore off the most prestigious robe of the Tian Dou Empire from his body.
Revealing a graceful figure.
The gorgeous deep V-neck gold gown tightly wrapped around this graceful figure.
Then, Xue Qinghe took off the crown on his head, letting his golden hair fall casually on his shoulders.
At the same time, his facial features began to change.
Straight nose, slightly slender phoenix eyes, with a somewhat sharp and peerless beauty, compared to the usual Xue Qinghe in front of everyone, there was a coldness that kept people at bay.
This was Xue Qinghe's true face.
No.
After she removed all the heavy disguises, she was no longer Xue Qinghe, but Qian Renxue, the young master of the Martial Soul Hall.
A peerless genius with innate soul power at level twenty, the true number one among the young generation of the Martial Soul Hall.
"Young Master, what are you..."
Citu Douluo was dumbfounded, completely unexpected that Qian Renxue would reveal her true identity.
"Elder, since Qin Xiao has already seen through my disguise as Xue Qinghe, what's the point of hiding anymore?"
"Instead of continuing to hide, I think it's better to be honest with him. This way, I can show my sincerity and negotiate his joining the Martial Soul Hall."
"Besides, now outside the palace hall, they are all my confidants, and they all know my true identity. There's no need to worry about identity leakage."
Qian Renxue's words made perfect sense.
However, Citu Douluo felt that it might not be that simple.
For some reason, he remembered what Qin Xiao said to Xue Qinghe before he left last time.
Could it be that wearing women's clothing was really not Xue Qinghe's decision, but something she did after listening to Qin Xiao's words?
"Whatever, less trouble is better than more. Whatever the Young Master says, I'll do."
"As for the rest, I'll just pretend I don't know anything."
With that in mind, Citu Douluo slowly stood aside.
At the same time, the tightly closed palace doors finally opened.
Qin Xiao pushed open the door and walked in.
"Haha, I'm really sorry to have kept Your Majesty waiting for so long."
He laughed and said to the figure sitting on the throne.
But, at the next moment, he couldn't help but be stunned.
Because on the throne, it was no longer the familiar Xue Qinghe, but a beautiful woman.
The golden deep V-neck gown perfectly displayed her curvaceous figure.
The slightly slender phoenix eyes were filled with an aura of 'do not enter'.
"Hmm, interesting!"
Qin Xiao's eyes lit up. He couldn't help but feel a desire to conquer this Qian Renxue, who was currently present.
"Let me introduce myself. My name is Qian Renxue, and I come from the Martial Soul Hall."
At this moment, Qian Renxue's slightly cold voice sounded.
"Oh."
Qin Xiao nodded and then proceeded to sit down at the long table.
"Oh, is that so?"
"Is that all you have to say?"
Qian Renxue looked astonished at Qin Xiao's attitude. "At least ask me a couple of questions symbolically, won't you?"
However, when she regained her senses, she found that Qin Xiao had already started eating heartily.
"Am I less attractive than this food?"
Infuriating!
Undoubtedly, as a beautiful woman, the most unbearable thing is being ignored for her beauty.
She asked with no good temper, "Is it delicious?"
"Delicious, don't you eat?" Qin Xiao glanced at Xue Qinghe and then focused on the food on the table again.
After a great battle, he had consumed a lot and now felt quite hungry.
"Seeing you eat, I'm satisfied."
Qian Renxue couldn't contain her icy demeanor anymore and rolled her eyes at Qin Xiao.
"Heh, it seems that the Young Master has once again lost to Qin Xiao in this confrontation," Citu Douluo sighed quietly, witnessing everything.
After a while, Qin Xiao put down the chopsticks, feeling content, and let out a satisfied burp.
"Finished eating?"
Qian Renxue asked again.
Qin Xiao looked over and noticed that Qian Renxue seemed like a neglected little wife.
"Finished, thank you for the hospitality, Your Majesty, I'm quite satisfied."
With that, Qin Xiao stood up, clasped his fists towards Qian Renxue, and said, "Goodbye."
What's this?
He's leaving!
Qian Renxue couldn't sit still anymore and stood up, "Wait, you, you..."
Her calmness overpowered her impulsiveness, and she refrained from uttering the words "bastard."
"What else is there?" Qin Xiao pretended not to understand.
Actually, he could tell that Qian Renxue didn't call him here just for dinner.
But, if she didn't say it, he wouldn't ask.
Just to make her anxious.
For some reason, Qin Xiao felt that making this iceberg-like beauty lose her cool and jump in anger would be quite interesting.
"I've finished eating, so there's no need to pack it, right?"
Seeing Qian Renxue silent, Qin Xiao asked again.
"Pack it? I'll pack your head!"
Qian Renxue was so angry that she wanted to curse. If she could, she really wanted Qin Xiao to leave without eating.
Citu Douluo noticed that Qian Renxue was on the verge of losing control and quickly reminded, "Young Master, please stay calm."
But, it had to be said, he couldn't help but admire Qin Xiao a little.
In his impression, apart from the young man in front of him, no one had ever angered the Young Master like this.
Pffft.
On the other hand, Xue Qinghe, after Citu Douluo's reminder, did become calmer. She took a long breath and said, "Qin Xiao, I wonder if you're interested in joining our Martial Soul Hall?"
"Join the Martial Soul Hall?"
Qin Xiao was taken aback for a moment, but then he thought it was normal.
For someone like him, it would be strange if the Martial Soul Hall didn't try to recruit him.
But...
"Why should I join the Martial Soul Hall?" Qin Xiao asked Qian Renxue.
Qian Renxue smiled faintly, "As long as you join the Martial Soul Hall, you will become an elder of our Martial Soul Hall, enjoying endless glory and wealth, and become a revered figure among countless soul masters."
She had already prepared this set of rhetoric, and now she said it with confidence.
"Endless glory and wealth, becoming a revered figure among soul masters, an elder of the Martial Soul Hall?"
Qin Xiao repeated.
Hmph, interested now?
Wait until you join the Martial Soul Hall, I'll see how I deal with you!
Qian Renxue felt that her chance to deal with Qin Xiao had come.
By then...
She definitely would make him fetch water to wash her feet!
Let him know what true cruelty is!
However...
Just then, Qin Xiao suddenly smiled, "I wonder if you've misunderstood something?"
"What misunderstanding?" Qian Renxue was taken aback.
Qin Xiao casually asked, "Do I care about the things you mentioned?"
"For me, money is just an external thing. Power and status, aren't they within my reach anyway? Besides, I think things are fine as they are now. I'm not interested in adding another chain to myself, am I?"
This...
Qian Renxue was speechless after hearing Qin Xiao's words.
For a moment, she didn't know what to say.
Similarly, Citu Douluo's face looked unpleasant. He couldn't help but curse inwardly, "This kid is not kind. If you don't want to join the Martial Soul Hall, just refuse. Why beat around the bush? Adding another chain to yourself, who are you cursing? Who are you insulting?"
If it weren't for being unable to defeat him, she would have rushed up to confront Qin Xiao in a life-and-death battle long ago.
"What, do you have something to say?"
"When I say this, do you feel unconvinced?"
Qin Xiao, being the astute person he was, keenly noticed a hint of unusual expression on Citu Douluo's face.
"No."
Citu Douluo's face showed a hint of unnaturalness when Qin Xiao asked him like that.
Qin Xiao's strength, he had witnessed it firsthand.
Even though they were far apart, he still saw a massive explosion that directly knocked the four Elders of the Haotian Sect from the sky.
Moreover, it was terrifying that he had knocked them down under the premise of the four Elders using a fusion technique similar to a soul fusion.
Citu Douluo didn't want to confront Qin Xiao head-on at all.
So, he quickly shook his head, "I didn't say I'm unconvinced. I'm just warning you, don't get any ideas."
Undoubtedly, this was a typical case of speaking tough words with a soft mouth.
Qin Xiao just smiled slightly in response. He could tell that Citu Douluo's courage was about to be shattered.
"Do you have anything else?"
Qin Xiao's gaze fell on Qian Renxue again, and he said slowly, "If there's really nothing else, I'll leave."
"There is!"
Qian Renxue immediately stopped Qin Xiao.
She looked at Qin Xiao somewhat resentfully and said, "Am I a ghost to you? Why are you in such a hurry to leave?"
"Beautiful women, I think they're scarier than ghosts."
Qin Xiao shrugged.
Pfft.
The frustration on Qian Renxue's face faded away, replaced by a smile.
What did Qin Xiao mean?
Was he complimenting her beauty?
Was his taste not bad?
Feeling delighted.
"This woman, crying one moment, laughing the next, really strange," Qin Xiao shook his head.
"We're done talking about the Martial Soul Hall. Now, let's talk about us."
Just then, Qian Renxue's voice sounded in Qin Xiao's ear.
"What about us?" Qin Xiao wondered.
"You helped me become the Emperor of the Heavenly Dou Empire. Naturally, I won't treat you unfairly."
Qian Renxue said domineeringly.
In Qin Xiao's opinion, it was like, 'you call me Big Brother, I'll teach you real kung fu.'
"Are you thinking of..."
Qin Xiao elongated his tone, "...offering yourself?"
"I can't do that. I don't have any plans to get married yet."
He said, waving his hand repeatedly.
Boom!
On the other hand, Qian Renxue felt thunderstruck.
She didn't expect Qin Xiao to say such a thing.
What was even more unbearable for Qian Renxue was that he rejected her?
What's wrong with me, Qian Renxue? Am I not good enough for you, Qin Xiao?
She had lived for so long and had never been looked down upon like this by anyone!
"Ah!"
She was furious and was about to fight Qin Xiao to the death.
However, an invisible soul power shield blocked her way forward.
"Elder Citu, let me pass, I'll fight him!"
Qian Renxue was infuriated, her chest heaving up and down like turbulent waves.
"Young Master, stay calm."
Citu Douluo's urgent voice echoed in Qian Renxue's mind.
"Don't say it's you, even if I'm included, and those guards outside the hall, we're no match for Qin Xiao. Besides, isn't Qin Xiao always like this? He's always infuriating. You'll get used to it."
"Young Master, stay calm."
Citu Douluo earnestly tried to calm down Qian Renxue.
Phew.
Inhale.
Exhale.
Phew.
After hearing Citu Douluo's words, Qian Renxue calmed down a lot.
Of course, this calmness stemmed from helplessness.
It's said that the fish dies by the net breaking, but if she really clashed with Qin Xiao, there would only be one result, the fish dying and the net not breaking.
"Elder, remove the soul power shield. I'm calm now."
She nodded to Citu Douluo.
Without saying a word, Citu Douluo removed the soul power shield.
At the same time, Qian Renxue's voice slowly spread, "Qin Xiao, I've decided to appoint you as the One Character King!"
Qin Xiao looked astonished, "You want to appoint me as king?"
"As the One Character King, you don't need to kneel when attending court with me. We'll walk side by side, sharing half of the courtly duties, executing ministers, killing royal relatives. You'll be free to do as you please, and you'll be known as the One Character King."
At this point, Qian Renxue looked deeply at Qin Xiao, "Your power in the Heavenly Dou Empire can rival mine, no one can surpass you. Are you willing to accept this kingship?"
"Are you willing to share the rule of the Heavenly Dou Empire with me?"
