An Expert Hunter, an Even Greater Hunter

"Angry?"

"No, absolutely not, why would I be angry?"

Bai Wanwan vehemently denied it.

"Wanwan ~"

Qian Renxue moved even closer, whispering in Bai Wanwan's ear. The warmth of her breath tickled Bai Wanwan's ear, and her body stiffened for a moment.

"I don't know when it started, but I gradually fell in love with you."

"We happen to be short of a Young Madam in our Worship Hall, and I think you would be perfect for the role. In the future, I will offer the entire Heaven Dou Empire as a betrothal gift to welcome you into our Qian Family. What do you think?"

Qian Renxue's voice was very soft, but it reached Bai Wanwan's ears very clearly.

Instantly, Bai Wanwan felt her cheeks burning, her body trembled slightly, and the chopsticks in her hand slipped and fell onto the table with a crisp sound.

"If you don't say anything, I'll take that as a yes."

Qian Renxue leaned forward again, gradually moving closer to Bai Wanwan's cherry lips.

"Hmm~"

Bai Wanwan's eyes widened, and her hand instinctively rose, only to be grasped by an even stronger hand.

Time seemed to stand still at that moment.

The entire Dining Room fell silent at this moment.

Bai Wanwan leaned back in the chair, her wrist held tightly, her azure eyes gradually closing.

After a while.

Qian Renxue released her grip on Bai Wanwan's wrist and gradually retreated. A thin silver line appeared between the two of them, stretched, and finally snapped.

"You didn't say anything just now, which means you agreed."

Qian Renxue gently wiped Bai Wanwan's lips with her fingertips.

You didn't even give me a chance to speak.

Bai Wanwan lowered her eyes slightly and muttered softly.

"Tsk~"

"It's not too late for you to refuse now."

A smile appeared in Qian Renxue's eyes.

Upon hearing this, Bai Wanwan secretly rolled her eyes at Qian Renxue, said nothing, picked up her chopsticks again, and began to savor the delicious food in front of her.

Seeing this, the Message in Qian Renxue's eyes became even clearer. She slowly raised her hand and snapped her fingers.

Bring some fruit wine.

A crisp sound echoed through the Dining Room.

No sooner had he finished speaking than a waiter brought over several bottles of fruit wine and placed them on the table.

Click~

Qian Renxue used her fingernail to open the cap of the fruit wine and handed it to Bai Wanwan: "Wanwan, would you like some?"

Looking at the fruit wine in front of her, Bai Wanwan's eyes flashed with a thoughtful look, and then she nodded decisively.

"Drink!"

Bai Wanwan's voice was very crisp.

At the same time, a plan that came to mind gradually emerged.

Although Qian Renxue's move today thwarted her original plan, it doesn't matter. As the saying goes, high-level hunters often appear as prey.

Hmm, I can pretend to be a little tipsy later.

Once the older sister has that idea, she can seize the opportunity to turn the tables.

If you don't have that idea, then you can look for an opportunity later.

Qian Renxue personally poured Bai Wanwan a glass of fruit wine, and then poured one for herself.

We simply clinked our glasses together.

He then drank the fruit wine in his glass in one gulp.

Then, just as Qian Renxue was about to say something, there was a thud, and Bai Wanwan slumped onto the table, looking like she was about to fall asleep from being drunk.

Feeling lost.

She appeared in Qian Renxue's eyes with a slightly bewildered expression.

"Wanwan?"

Qian Renxue reached out and poked Bai Wanwan's cheek.

After waiting a moment, seeing that Bai Wanwan was still drunk, Qian Renxue's eyes narrowed slightly.

Her intuition told her that something was slightly off.

Putting aside whether a glass of fruit wine with an alcohol content similar to that of Fruit Juice can make someone drunk, if Qian Renxue remembers correctly, three years ago, at a banquet in Spirit City, Bai Wanwan apparently got the Golden Generation in the Papal Hall completely drunk.

While this doesn't necessarily mean Bai Wanwan has a high alcohol tolerance, it certainly doesn't mean she'd be so weak that she'd pass out after just one glass of fruit wine.

Qian Renxue reached out and poked Bai Wanwan again. Seeing that Bai Wanwan still didn't react, Qian Renxue took out a book from her Soul Tool and turned to the middle page with practiced ease.

"High-level hunters often appear as prey, but even higher-level hunters often appear as prey that is not high-level hunters."

"The first step is to follow her plan, lower her guard, and when she thinks she's the hunter and is about to retaliate, reveal yourself to be a higher-ranking hunter and kill her instead."

After glancing at the books a few times, Qian Renxue turned her gaze to Bai Wanwan.

"Um..."

"What a wicked book! How could I have bought such a wicked book from a roadside stall? Luckily, I bought it, or the consequences would have been unimaginable."

Quietly close the book and put it back into the Storage Space without making a sound.

"Wanwan?"

After gently nudging Bai Wanwan and seeing that she still didn't react, Qian Renxue stood up, put her arm around Bai Wanwan's knees, picked her up around the waist, and walked out of the Dining Room.

Since her younger sister was drunk, she, as the older sister, naturally had to take her home to rest.

Heaven Dou Imperial Palace

Inside the Palace where Xue Qinghe was located.

Xue Qinghe looked at the bowl of soup that Xue Luochuan had brought, his expression shifting between light and shadow.

"Did my brother really send this?"

Xue Qinghe raised her eyes and looked at the guard in front of her.

"Yes, Your Highness."

"His Second Prince also said that this soup was personally cooked by King Canglan. Although it doesn't look very appealing, it's incredibly delicious and quite magical. After drinking it, you can see the Grand Royal Grandmother, whom you haven't seen for many years."

The guard reported everything in detail.

"Hiss~"

Is this stuff really safe to drink?

"Or is it that my second brother is planning to poison me?"

"But even if you're going to poison it, at least make it look presentable. Who would drink this green stuff?"

Xue Luochuan stared at the soup in front of him, lost in deep thought.

"My younger brother said that this was cooked by the King Canglan himself, so it shouldn't be fake."

"Um..."

"I think you did well today, so I'll reward you with this soup. Tell me how it tastes after you finish it, and I'll go to the King Canglan's Mansion tomorrow."

Xue Qinghe casually pointed to a guard and pushed the soup forward.

No matter who made the soup, Xue Qinghe would never drink it, not even if you killed him.

"Um... Your Highness."

The guard swallowed hard, then reluctantly took a few steps forward.

"This was personally prepared by King Canglan, and I'm rewarding it to you now. If you don't drink it, are you disrespecting the Princely Title of our Heaven Dou Empire, or does my word have no weight?"

Xue Qinghe glanced at him indifferently.

Upon hearing this, the guard moved slowly, his face contorted with a mournful expression, but then he beamed with delight as he picked up the soup and took a sip.

yue~~~

Before he could even swallow, the guard began to gag.

"Um..."

"You don't need to say anything more, I already understand."

"Take this soup home and enjoy it slowly."

Xue Qinghe waved his hand, indicating that the guards could leave.
