An Intimate Past Between Qian Renxue and Me

Heaven Dou Empire, Heaven Dou City

To the east of the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace stands a fortress-like mansion.

The mansion's walls reached a height of thirty meters, taller than those of some major cities. The Heaven Dou Empire had strict regulations regarding the residences of its officials. Such a massive wall was enough to indicate that the mansion's owner was extremely wealthy and powerful.

Above the main gate of the mansion is a gilded plaque with three large characters: Crown Prince Residence.

A young man entered the mansion but was stopped by the guards at the gate.

Who is it?

The young man was holding a badge. The guards at the gate did not stop him any further.

"Take me to see His Crown Prince." Ye Feng put away the waist token in his hand and ordered the guards at the gate.

"Please come with me."

The soldiers dared not neglect Ye Feng's demands.

The waist token in Ye Feng's hand was a gift from Xue Qinghe. It was merely Xue Qinghe's personal token and carried no real authority. Possessing it allowed free entry and exit from the Crown Prince Residence without the cumbersome procedures of reporting. It was a tactic Xue Qinghe used to win over certain individuals. Those who received such a token would subconsciously perceive themselves as belonging to the Crown Prince.

Ye Feng followed the soldier to an elegant courtyard. The soldier led Ye Feng inside and then turned back.

Eye of Hell

Out of curiosity, Ye Feng used the Eye of Hell. With his spiritual power, which was about to break through to the Mustard Seed Realm, he saw that there were many hidden guards in the courtyard. He thought to himself, no wonder there was no one else in this courtyard.

Not only the guards, but Ye Feng also noticed two powerful auras. Those two were dressed very differently from the others. If Ye Feng's guess was correct, they should be the two Titled Douluo guarding the "Xue Qinghe".

Although these two Titled Douluo were well hidden, they still could not escape Ye Feng's Eye of Hell and mental power detection.

It's afternoon now, but the doors to the rooms in front are tightly shut.

"Could it be that he's not inside?" Ye Feng couldn't help but wonder.

Ye Feng walked to the door. When he arrived, Ye Feng noticed that the guards around him were extremely tense, especially the two Titled Douluo powerhouses.

Why are they so nervous?

Ye Feng could understand why the guards were nervous. But he couldn't understand why the two Titled Douluo experts were nervous.

Curious, Ye Feng kicked the door open and entered the room before the two Titled Douluo even appeared.

Ye Feng was stunned.

Ye Feng finally understood why the two Titled Douluo from the Spirit Hall were so nervous. It was because Xue Qinghe was actually bathing behind the screen.

"Who?" Xue Qinghe asked softly.

Startled, Xue Qinghe quickly used his Soul Power to pick up the clothes on the screen and wrap himself up.

"I am Ye Feng."

"Junior brother?"

"Um."

"Why are you here?" Xue Qinghe asked in surprise.

Ye Feng's actions and Xue Qinghe's voice alerted the guards protecting the room.

"I need to talk to you." Ye Feng smiled and walked behind the screen.

"Don't come any closer!" Xue Qinghe cried out in alarm.

"Why?"

"I'm taking a shower."

"What does it matter? You're my Master, and besides, we're both men."

"Don't come any closer."

Xue Qinghe cried out urgently, his face filled with alarm, like a frightened bird. But his words had no effect at all; Ye Feng continued to walk behind the screen as if nothing had happened.

Ye Feng had always been Ning Fengzhi's exceptional intelligence. Xue Qinghe was clearly Qian Renxue in disguise. No matter how powerful the Angel Soul Bone was, how could Ning Fengzhi have failed to detect even the slightest problem with the fake Xue Qinghe after more than a decade?

Ye Feng wanted to see the disguise ability of the Angel Soul Bone.

Ye Feng quickly arrived behind the screen. He was stunned. Ye Feng had forgiven Ning Fengzhi. He thought to himself that the disguise skill of the Angel Soul Bone was indeed powerful; it could actually be done perfectly and seamlessly, deceiving people's eyes. Underneath that barely clothed body was indeed a man's body.

Xue Qinghe frowned, her face flushed crimson, and her ears turned bright red with embarrassment. Since becoming Xue Qinghe, she had never encountered anything like this, never met such a shameless person, and never been so... bold.

Xue Qinghe used his Soul Power to summon a long robe, which he casually wrapped around his body. He scolded in a reproachful tone, "Junior brother, what's making you so anxious? Can't you wait for me a little while?"

"You've probably heard that Dai Mubai and Tang San left the Shrek Team this morning and went to the Blazing Academy."

"Um."

"Thanks to Er Long's efforts, we have recalled one student from the Blue Tyrant Academy who was originally preparing to participate in the competition. Now, Shrek Academy is still short one person."

"Oh."

"Our Shrek Academy is still short one person. I need your help to figure out a way to fill that position."

"Is this the urgent matter you were talking about?" Xue Qinghe stared at Ye Feng with a murderous look in his eyes.

Ye Feng barged into his room so recklessly just because of a contestant, and... and... and... and...

As Xue Qinghe thought about it, her hands clenched tightly in anger. She had suffered a huge loss today. A huge loss, and she even had to help Ye Feng. Thinking of this, Xue Qinghe felt a fire burning inside her, with nowhere to vent it.

"Mm." Ye Feng nodded.

"Your Shrek Academy isn't short of people, is it?" Xue Qinghe asked.

"Indeed, we don't lack any," Ye Feng replied.

"If that's the case, then why bother asking me for help?" Xue Qinghe had no intention of helping Ye Feng at all. Ye Feng's actions today had almost cost "his" chastity.

"You're my senior brother. If you don't help me, who will? Shrek Academy does have people, but there aren't any Soul Ancestor who meet the requirements for the competition. As far as I know, all three professors at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy are your people. I need your help with this."

"You're right, they are indeed my people. You've already called me senior brother, so we should help each other." Xue Qinghe turned around, suddenly changing his mind. He stared at Ye Feng. Ye Feng was the youngest Soul King in the history of the Soul Master World, and was about to become the youngest Soul Emperor in the history of the Soul Master World. Such a talent would surely influence the future of the continent. He said, "Alright, leave this to me. The second team of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy is just a supporting cast. Not to mention the Finals, they probably won't even make it to the Promotion Tournament. I'll give you their information then, and you can choose one of them."

"No. I don't think much of them." Ye Feng shook his head.

"So, who have you taken a fancy to?" Xue Qinghe asked.

"Dugu Yan," Ye Feng replied.

"Dugu Bo's granddaughter, Dugu Yan?"

"Yes."

"No. She's a key member of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy's seed team. If you want her, I can't make that decision for you," Xue Qinghe said with difficulty.

Xue Qinghe was not stupid. If His Your Majesty Xue Ye found out that he was the one who took the person away, His Your Majesty Xue Ye would surely punish him.

"Don't worry. I won't make things too difficult for you. You just need to have your people give you a little push from behind the scenes when the time is right," Ye Feng smiled.

"What do you mean by that? I don't understand."

"If I'm not mistaken, Dugu Yan will voluntarily withdraw from the Heaven Dou Royal Academy's seed team today."

P. S.: I recommend a great novel called "Overthrowing All Realms Starts with Battle Through the Heavens".
