Talking in Sleep and Calling Xiao Wu, Qian Renxue Overhears and Makes a Promise to Leave

Finally, Yue Guan approached Qian Renxue, took her pulse, and sent a trace of Soul Power to help her recover. He then sneered, "Your Majesty, I will report this matter truthfully to the Pope."

"Await judgment. This matter will not be easily dismissed!"

"Old Gui, let's go!"

With that, Elder Gui picked up Jin Lingfeng, and the two of them flickered and vanished from their spot.

The next moment, the immense pressure disappeared. Emperor Xue Ye let out a heavy sigh of relief, his heart filled with rage.

However, just then.

Prince Xue Xing's anxious voice was heard from outside:

"Reporting to Your Majesty, someone just broke into the cold palace and rescued the Fourth Prince!"

Emperor Xue Ye's mouth twitched violently. Overcome with fury, he could no longer hold back and spat out a mouthful of blood, collapsing and falling unconscious...

Half an hour later, in a room at an inn.

Jin Lingfeng, who had woken up, anxiously inquired:

"Elder Ju, Elder Gui!"

"How is Xue'er now?"

"Is she alright?"

Yue Guan and Elder Gui exchanged a smile. Yue Guan said, "Holy Son, there's no need to worry. Young Master is unharmed and should have already woken up."

Jin Lingfeng breathed a sigh of relief, a smile appearing on his lips. He had been ordered by Bibi Dong to come to the Heaven Dou Empire to eliminate the other princes of the royal family, and he had finally completed his mission.

"By the way, where is Poison Douluo now?"

He paused and asked in a deep voice.

Elder Gui replied:

"Reporting to Holy Son, Poison Douluo is waiting outside the door. Shall I let him in now?"

Jin Lingfeng nodded in assent, "You may," and then sat on the edge of the bed, trying to appear less weak.

Elder Gui transmitted his voice, and the door was soon pushed open, revealing a white-haired old man in a gray robe.

His face was gloomy, his pupils as cold and emotionless as a viper's, and a sinister aura permeated his entire being.

The two men sized each other up. Dugu Bo spoke first, his tone indifferent:

"Greetings, Holy Son!"

"Do you have a way to cure the snake venom in me and my granddaughter?"

Jin Lingfeng smiled slightly and nodded, saying, "There is indeed a way, but I need Poison Douluo to stay by Emperor Xue Ye's side and help me conceal everything."

Dugu Bo's gaze turned slightly cold, but he still nodded, "No problem. I promise you this!"

Jin Lingfeng was satisfied. Although Dugu Bo was cruel and ruthless, he always kept his word.

"Poison Douluo, you can try to guide the toxins into a Soul Bone and store them there. This way, the toxins will not be affected and will no longer erode your body."

"As for your granddaughter, Dugu Yan, you can find a suitable Soul Bone for her, or you can bring her to me, and I will personally help her expel the toxins."

At Nuoding Academy.

On the sports field, on the grass.

A cute girl with a scorpion braid lay there.

Her gaze was fixed on the azure sky, a look of longing in her eyes.

"Brother Jin, you've been back to your family for half a year now."

"Xiao Wu misses you so much. Have you forgotten me already?"

"I wonder when we'll meet again..."

The girl's thin lips parted slightly, and she spoke with sadness, her light-colored eyelashes trembling.

Just then, something unexpected happened!

Behind the girl, black mist condensed into a giant arm and clawed down fiercely towards Xiao Wu!

Instantly, a helpless scream erupted from the girl, echoing endlessly around her, sounding extremely piercing.

At the same time, the dream shattered.

Jin Lingfeng, lying in bed, sat up abruptly, gasping, "Xiao Wu!"

Sweat trickled down his face as it overflowed.

Jin Lingfeng panted heavily, his brow furrowed.

"Lingfeng, what's wrong?"

"Did you have a nightmare? Don't scare me!"

Beside him, the beautiful Qian Renxue held the boy she loved, gazing at him with concern.

Jin Lingfeng forced a smile, pulled the beauty back down, and comforted her:

"Xue'er, I just had a dream."

"It's okay, you don't need to worry."

Six months had passed since the assassination attempt, and Qian Renxue's injuries had long since healed. Jin Lingfeng had come here to quietly stay by her side.

The girl rested her head on the boy's arm, her eyes gazing dreamily at his handsome face, so close to hers.

She pursed her lips slightly and suddenly said with resentment:

"Lingfeng, who is Xiao Wu?"

"I want you to answer me immediately!"

"Are you seeing other women behind my back?"

"Are you? Talk to me!"

The girl became more agitated as she spoke, her pent-up grievances erupting at that moment.

Jin Lingfeng looked at the girl in his arms, her eyes slightly red, her delicate body trembling slightly, and her gaze filled with sadness as she looked at him. His heart felt heavy, and a pang of pain rose within him.

"Xue'er, don't overthink it."

"You are the one I love, how could I possibly love another woman?"

"I went to Nuoding Academy on business before, and that's where I met a six-year-old girl named Xiao Wu."

"The Pope knows about this, you have to believe me..."

Jin Lingfeng held the beauty tightly, gently stroking her hair with his right hand.

Hearing the tender words of the man she loved, Qian Renxue's emotions gradually calmed.

She lifted her head, her eyes red, but seeing the pained, self-reproaching expression on the boy's face, her heart felt unbearable.

"Lingfeng, I believe you."

Qian Renxue said softly, resting her head against his solid chest.

Jin Lingfeng nodded heavily, kissed his beloved girl tenderly on the forehead, and fell into a deep sleep again.

However, about half an hour later, he faintly murmured the name "Xiao Wu" in his sleep...

Instantly, in Jin Lingfeng's embrace.

The beauty's eyes opened, carrying a flow of grievance and sadness within them...

The next day, early in the morning.

A reflection of a stunningly beautiful girl appeared in the mirror.

Golden hair, exquisite features, and a graceful figure, as if carved from a flawless jade by the heavens.

Behind the girl, a handsome young man in white was holding a jade comb, gently and tenderly brushing the beauty's hair.

Qian Renxue's thin lips curved into a small arc, her beautiful eyes filled with deep happiness as she gazed at the boy in the mirror, who looked so serious. Her heart felt incredibly warm and secure.

"Lingfeng, I've been made Crown Prince now."

"You've been here with me for half a year, it's time for you to go back."

As the girl said this, a flicker of grievance crossed her eyes.

Jin Lingfeng stopped his actions, turned the beauty to face him, and looked at her, smiling and saying:

"Xue'er, I don't want to go back so soon."

"I want to stay here and accompany you longer."

Then, he reached out and gently caressed the beloved girl's cheek, his eyes filled only with her.

Qian Renxue met his deeply affectionate gaze, her girlish heart stirred, filled with sweetness and happiness.

She stood up proactively, hooked her arms around the boy's neck, and shyly stole a kiss on his cheek before persuading him:

"Lingfeng, be good and go back."

"I know you want to spend more time with me."

"But now that I am the Crown Prince, there are too many things I need to handle every day."

"If I always stay in the room with you, outsiders will eventually discover something..."

"But, I..."

Jin Lingfeng was about to say something more, but the beauty covered his lips with her palm.

She smiled sweetly and said playfully, "Ling Feng, let's go back."

"After you cultivate to level 100."

"Help the Martial Soul Hall unify the Douluo Continent."

"Then we can be together forever!"

After speaking, Qian Renxue tightly hugged the beloved boy in front of her, resting her head on his chest, listening to his strong heartbeat, a happy smile appearing on her lips.

"Xue'er, don't worry."

"I will cultivate diligently and won't make you wait that long!"

Jin Lingfeng was also moved. Holding the beautiful girl's delicate body, he spoke tenderly, and the atmosphere around them became extremely warm, even the air felt sweet...

Half an hour later, Qian Renxue left the room and headed to Heaven Dou Palace, a flicker of reluctance in her eyes...

"Holy Son, the carriage is ready."

"Let's set off back to Martial Soul City."

Outside Heaven Dou City, Yue Guan made a "please" gesture, looking at the young man before him with a smile.

Jin Lingfeng shook his head and said in a deep voice, "Before returning to Martial Soul City, let's go to Nuoding City."

After that, he got into the carriage with a serious expression.

The dream of Xiao Wu being harmed last night had appeared many times, making him feel vaguely uneasy.

Beside him, Yue Guan frowned but chose not to say anything...

Half a day later, in front of Nuoding Academy's gate.

A carriage bearing the Martial Soul Hall emblem stopped there.

A young man in white descended from it.

As soon as he appeared, he attracted all the surrounding students, who began to whisper amongst themselves.

"Elder Ju, please wait here for a moment."

"I'm going into the academy to take care of some business and will be back soon."

Jin Lingfeng said to Yue Guan and then left with hurried steps.

The surrounding students parted to make way, and Yue Guan sighed helplessly...

Soon, Jin Lingfeng arrived at the Dean's office.
