The Holy Son Likes Xue Qinghe's Love for Men

Emperor Xue Ye spoke with majesty, "Qinghe, Zichang, the Martial Soul Hall's Holy Son's entourage will soon arrive in Heaven Dou City."

"I order both of you to go immediately and represent the royal family in welcoming the Holy Son to Heaven Dou Palace. Remember, do not show any disrespect."

"Your command, Father Emperor!"

Qian Renxue and the Second Prince, Xue Zichang, stepped forward and bowed respectfully.

Following that, Xue Zichang was the first to exit Heaven Dou Palace, ignoring Qian Renxue behind him. The civil and military officials around them kept their eyes to themselves, pretending not to see anything.

A murderous glint flashed in Qian Renxue's eyes before she quickly concealed it and followed them out of Heaven Dou Palace. A joyful smile unconsciously appeared on her lips, and a handsome face flashed through her mind...

At this moment, outside Heaven Dou City.

A large number of Royal Guards parted to the sides.

Standing at the front were two princes with extraordinary bearing.

One of them had short, light-gold hair, wore a noble Jinling brocade robe, and stood with his hands behind his back, exuding both majesty and approachability.

The other also wore a noble Jinling brocade robe, his brows filled with arrogance, his gaze condescending, looking as if he were high above everyone else.

At this moment, Xue Zichang gazed into the distance and said playfully, "Imperial Brother, I heard the Martial Soul Hall's Holy Son is coming to our Heaven Dou Empire to strengthen relations between our two powers. What do you think of this matter?"

Qian Renxue glanced at him indifferently and said coldly, "The other party is representing the Martial Soul Hall behind them. I dare not speculate rashly..."

But before she could finish speaking, Xue Zichang interrupted her with a cold laugh: "Enough, Imperial Brother. Put away those high-sounding words."

"It's one thing for you to flatter Father Emperor normally, but now that it's just the two of us, do you still want to disgust me?"

"In my opinion, the Martial Soul Hall sending someone here must have ulterior motives!"

Killing intent erupted in Qian Renxue's eyes. She let out a soft hum and concealed it, already marking Xue Zichang as the first prince to be eliminated in her heart!

About ten minutes later, the Martial Soul Hall's entourage arrived in a grand procession from afar. Xue Zichang's eyes narrowed slightly.

Qian Renxue's thin lips curved into a slight smile, and a hint of tenderness flashed in her beautiful eyes...

After a long while, the entourage drew closer.

A luxurious carriage stopped, and the door curtain was lifted. A handsome man, resembling an immortal in white, stepped out.

With the man's appearance, he instantly became the center of attention. Even the Second Prince, Xue Zichang, wore an expression of jealousy.

"I am Xue Qinghe, the First Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire. I greet Your Highness, the Holy Son."

"I am acting on His Majesty's orders to welcome Your Highness, the Holy Son, to Heaven Dou Palace to meet His Majesty!"

Qian Renxue approached the man she loved, suppressing the longing of not seeing him for a year, and spoke with a calm, smiling face.

Jin Lingfeng looked at the man standing before him, a strange glint in his eyes. He quickly activated the third skill of the Demon Crocodile Head Spirit Bone: Demon Crocodile Heel Pupil.

In his eyes, Qian Renxue's true face appeared. After a year apart, the young woman had become even more beautiful and delicate, like a ripe peach.

Infinite joy flowed through Jin Lingfeng's eyes, and he quickly smiled and returned the greeting, "I am Jin Lingfeng, the Holy Son of the Martial Soul Hall. I greet Your Highness, the First Prince. Thank you for coming to welcome me."

Beside them, Xue Zichang was slightly stunned. He had just discovered something astonishing: the Martial Soul Hall's Holy Son was looking at Xue Qinghe with an incredibly gentle gaze!

It was the same way a man looked at a woman he fancied!

And looking at Xue Qinghe, although he appeared normal on the surface, the smile on his lips also seemed quite excited!

Could it be... love at first sight, a love for men?

Thinking of this, Xue Zichang shivered inexplicably, then became extremely excited. If it were confirmed that Xue Qinghe liked men, then he would surely lose his qualification to compete for the position of Crown Prince!

He quickly put on a smile and greeted Jin Lingfeng with a smile, "Greetings, Holy Son. I am Xue Zichang, the Second Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire."

"I am also acting on His Majesty's orders to welcome Your Highness, the Holy Son, to Heaven Dou Palace."

Jin Lingfeng noticed the murderous glint flash in his beloved girl Qian Renxue's eyes and immediately categorized the person in front of him as an enemy.

But he still replied politely on the surface, "Thank you, Second Prince. Let's hurry to Heaven Dou Palace."

Xue Zichang's expression turned serious and he said, "Your Highness, the Holy Son, please forgive me."

"The Heaven Dou Empire has strict regulations that any personnel from the Star Luo Empire or the Martial Soul Hall, along with their entourages and carriages, are not allowed to enter Heaven Dou City."

"Would you prefer to ride in my carriage and travel to Heaven Dou Palace with me?"

"Or, you could ride in my Imperial Brother's carriage."

Xue Zichang said, pointing to the carriages on his left and right.

Qian Renxue's expression turned cold. Xue Zichang was arrogant and cunning; he had just shown hostility and rejection towards Jin Lingfeng, so he wouldn't want to share a carriage with him.

This left only one possibility: the other party must have discovered something and was deliberately suggesting this to make her and Jin Lingfeng share a carriage!

Qian Renxue was greatly alarmed and was about to tell Jin Lingfeng to ride in Xue Zichang's carriage when Jin Lingfeng spoke up first with a smile.

"Since the Heaven Dou Empire has this rule, we must abide by it. I will share a carriage with His Highness the First Prince."

At this moment, both Xue Zichang and Jin Lingfeng turned their gazes to Qian Renxue. She could only smile and make an inviting gesture.

"Holy Son, please."

Immediately, under everyone's watchful eyes, Jin Lingfeng entered the carriage with Qian Renxue, one after the other. The exquisite curtains fell, and the carriage slowly drove towards the direction of the Heaven Dou Palace.

Behind them, endless coldness flickered in Xue Zichang's eyes. He took a deep look at the receding carriage before quickly getting into his own and ordering his men to pursue.

Meanwhile, in Qian Renxue's carriage, Jin Lingfeng looked at Qian Renxue, whose face had recovered, in his arms and kissed her passionately.

Although Qian Renxue was nervous and uneasy, she couldn't resist the man's fiery passion and could only shyly close her eyes, letting him have his way.

Releasing the suppressed longing and tenderness of the past year, the atmosphere in the carriage became intimate, and even the air seemed to carry a sweet scent...

After a long while, in the carriage.

The beautiful Qian Renxue's eyes were full of affection as she playfully glared at the scoundrel.

The two looked at each other, their affection flowing, with only each other in their eyes.

The young girl's heart was filled with sweetness. After being apart for a year, the young man's love for her had clearly not diminished.

At this moment, Jin Lingfeng asked in a deep voice, "Xue'er, how is your situation in the palace now?"

"Tell me in detail, so I can figure out how to help you."

A hint of helplessness flashed in Qian Renxue's eyes as she slowly spoke.

"Lingfeng, Emperor Xue Ye has always been wary of me."

"As for the other three princes, except for the Fourth Prince Xue Beng."

"The Second Prince Xue Zichang and the Third Prince Xue Ying are both my formidable rivals."

"Most importantly, there is a Poison Douluo stationed in the palace."

"He is extremely skilled in using poisons. For me to poison the princes under his nose without being discovered is simply as difficult as ascending to heaven..."

Jin Lingfeng looked at the exhausted young woman with great heartache, unable to imagine how much grievance she had endured while hiding in the palace for the past year.

"Xue'er, I have a way to deal with the Poison Douluo, don't worry."

"Look at you, you must have been under a lot of stress this past year, right?"

"Your skin isn't as good as it was a year ago. It breaks my heart to see it."

He reached out and hugged the beauty's delicate body, whispering sweet nothings.

Qian Renxue rested her head on her beloved man's chest, listening to his strong heartbeat, her thin lips curling into a happy smile.

However, she still pouted and pretended to be displeased, saying resentfully, "Fine, Lingfeng, how dare you say my skin isn't as good as before."

"You're disgusted with me! You don't love me anymore!"

"You scoundrel, you jerk!"

But as soon as she said these words, she regretted them.

Qian Renxue didn't want to, but with her proud personality, she just couldn't control herself.

Ever since she fell in love with Jin Lingfeng, she had become insecure, afraid of bothering her beloved man...

However, when Qian Renxue cautiously raised her head, she found Jin Lingfeng gazing at her tenderly.

A sincere smile appeared on his lips, and he took her delicate hand, saying affectionately, "Xue'er, you're still the same as you were a year ago."

"I love seeing you act spoiled towards me, and hearing you chatter in my ear."

"If you ever became very gentle, I definitely wouldn't be able to get used to it."

Instantly, the young man's affectionate words reached the young girl's ears, making her cheeks blush. She was deeply moved.

This feeling of being valued, cherished, and accepted was wonderful. Qian Renxue vowed to spend her life with the man before her, never to be separated.

However, although her heart was filled with sweetness and happiness, she still let out a proud "Hmph" and said, "Hmph, you say nice things, but I won't believe you!"

"If men could be trusted, pigs would be able to climb trees!"

"I'd rather believe men have ghosts in their hearts than believe their mouths!"

Jin Lingfeng smiled bitterly. After not seeing her for a year, his beloved girl's mouth had become even more sharp-tongued, but he still liked it.
