Qian Renxue's Great Deception
Soon, the guards who had initially dared not enter dared not delay any longer when they saw that their emperor had arrived. They braced themselves and entered the palace of the First Prince Xue Qinghe. They quickly discovered that the immense mental pressure they had felt as soon as they got close was gone. They immediately rushed in to check the situation, otherwise it would be a dereliction of duty on their part.
"Qinghe! Qinghe, are you alright?!"
Soon, Xue Ye staggered a little and, without waiting for the guards to open the door, pushed open the palace gate himself and asked with concern. He went in as soon as the exquisite solid wood door was pushed open a crack.
When Xue Ye looked up at the scene inside, he was stunned for a moment. He imagined that his eldest son had offended someone he shouldn't have, and that the person's elders had come to his door to confront him.
In his imagination, his eldest son, Xue Qinghe, lay in a pool of blood. Unexpectedly, the first thing he saw was a beautiful young woman sitting at the head of the table, with Xue Qinghe respectfully pouring her red tea.
"Your Majesty, I have been impolite. I do not know in what way my son Qinghe has offended Your Majesty. On behalf of the Heaven Dou Empire, I apologize to Your Majesty."
Although the person in front of her looked like a very young girl, Xue Ye immediately recognized that the person being respectfully served by Xue Qinghe was Bibi Dong, the wife of the Dragon Douluo Continent Dragon Gate Sect Leader's Wife, who was also the actual ruler of Notting City.
That's a legendary level 99 Limit Douluo. I don't know how my eldest son Xue Qinghe, offended him. But it seems my worries are unnecessary. However, as a member of the Heaven Dou Empire's royal family, I still need to show him proper etiquette.
"Father, you've arrived. I was just about to tell you that when I went out of the city to inspect things last time, my teacher noticed that I have a special hidden talent. Today, he came to find me and wants to take me as his disciple."
Qian Renxue, disguised as Xue Qinghe, stepped forward with great respect, grabbed one of Xue Ye's hands to help him sit down, and announced the good news to him with a beaming smile.
Then Xue Qinghe's expression changed. The warm and gentle smile disappeared, and he adopted a serious and elegant demeanor. He looked at the guards who rushed in, stretched out his arm and waved it lightly, clearly indicating that they should step back.
This caused the guards to look at each other in confusion, after all, they were His Majesty's personal guards, and only Xue Ye could command them.
"Step down! From now on, you will belong to His Crown Prince!"
Seeing the somewhat unpleasant look on his eldest son's face, Xue Ye sighed and thought he was too young to help him out of a predicament. In any case, the vast Heaven Dou Empire would be handed over to Xue Qinghe in the future, and now he could hand it over little by little. Today's events had really frightened him.
After the guards bowed respectfully and withdrew, although they had suddenly gone from being the Emperor's personal guards to the Crown Prince's personal guards, which seemed like a demotion, it was actually an opportunity for them.
When only the three of them remained in the palace, Xue Ye didn't know how to speak. After all, he was now facing a level 99 Limit Douluo, and he still had to show the respect due to a powerful figure.
Although Xue Qinghe's words sounded absurd to Xue Ye, as a father, didn't he know how talented his eldest son was in cultivation? Perhaps his eldest son really did have some hidden talent? If their Heaven Dou Empire's royal family had any hidden talent, they would have become Titled Douluo royal offspring long ago. Don't underestimate how terrifying it is for a vast empire to provide enough resources for one person's cultivation.
Xue Ye quickly gave up thinking. As long as Xue Qinghe found such a powerful master, it wouldn't be bad. This was a golden opportunity. In the face of interests, some insignificant things could be ignored.
Let's just consider it a strange hobby of the strong! Xue Ye, feeling a little embarrassed, picked up the black tea poured by Xue Qinghe and took a sip to cover up the awkward atmosphere.
"When I went out last time, I saw that Qinghe had a very good talent for Soul Tool. Xue Ye Majesty Xueye should know that our Dragon Gate Sect's Soul Tool is the first of its kind in the Douluo Continent. I really like Qinghe, so I came here specifically to take him as my disciple."
"Oh... that's truly Qinghe's good fortune. Qinghe, you must study hard with your teacher, you know? Your Majesty, I'll have a banquet prepared to welcome you back."
"No need. I'll explain to Qinghe later. Besides, our Dragon Gate Sect's Soul Tool are unparalleled in the world. Even if I'm far away in Notting City, I can still teach Qinghe face-to-face. I have to rush back today, so there's no need to trouble yourself."
Bibi Dong didn't seem to care that the Dragon Gate Sect had a way to communicate remotely. She waved her hand to indicate that Xue Qinghe was about to start class. Xue Ye quickly smiled and then naturally withdrew.
His steps were very light. Although today was a bit dangerous, it ended well. Soul Tool! Sure enough, the Dragon Gate Sect has some unique Soul Tool hidden inside. The one that can be used for remote Soul Tool alone is very useful for the army.
After all, all the Soul Tool are produced by the Dragon Gate Sect. Even if the Heaven Dou Empire is rich, it is impossible to equip every soldier with Soul Tool. If Xue Qinghe learns the method of making Soul Tool...
Upon thinking of this, Xue Ye could no longer suppress his joy and burst into laughter, sweeping away the many bad news of the past few days. In an instant, he felt younger.
Xue Ye planned to publicize the fact that Crown Prince Xue Qinghe had become Bibi Dong's disciple, so that the duchies would know that the Heaven Dou Empire's royal family had a level 99 Limit Douluo standing behind them. He hoped that the majesty of this emperor would calm down the restless duchies and nobles.
After Xue Ye left, Qian Renxue breathed a sigh of relief. She had been embarrassed because she couldn't command the guards. Just now, she had tried to persuade Dandan to express to Bibi Dong that she wanted to develop her own power in the Heaven Dou Empire.
Who knew the slap in the face would come so quickly? If it weren't for Xue Ye coming to her rescue, she wouldn't know how she would have ended up like this. Bibi Dong is now staring at Qian Renxue with a look of amusement, which makes Qian Renxue quite embarrassed.
"Aunt, please excuse my humble appearance. Xue'er has only just gained a foothold in the Heaven Dou Empire, and she hasn't yet trained any subordinates."
"Alright, Auntie knows my Xue'er's ambition. Remember, Xue'er, you still have your Auntie and Uncle behind you. If you encounter any difficulties, you can directly seek help from the disciples of the Dragon Gate Sect who are away from home. Don't try to handle things alone, okay?"
Bibi Dong gently patted Qian Renxue's head and gave her some instructions. The elder's concern for the younger generation touched Qian Renxue, and tears welled up in her eyes again. Bibi Dong gently wiped them away.
After Qian Renxue recovered, Bibi Dong began to teach her the basic techniques of the Dragon Gate Sect, starting with the meridians. This was the first time Qian Renxue had encountered a cultivation method different from that of Soul Master in the Douluo Continent, and she was very surprised. She never expected that such a magical technique was created by her uncle, Yu Xiaogang.
However, since the knowledge of meridians was too vast, Bibi Dong followed Yu Xiaogang's method and directly used her own pure Soul Power to introduce Qian Renxue to the basics, while also Marrow Cleansing to lay the foundation for her future cultivation.
Just as Bibi Dong was completely absorbed in her role as a teacher for the first time, Yu Xiaogang in the Yin- Ice Fire Yin Yang Well Dragon Gate Sect Secret Realm also began to perform hand seals to collect the pills. Meanwhile, Tang San and the others had finished cultivating the Icefire Undying Golden Body and were all gathered around Yu Xiaogang refining pills, wondering if they could see any secrets behind it.
"Teacher, your Pill Furnace is so small! But it's so beautiful! There's even a little purple dragon swimming on it! Teacher, teacher~ please make one for Rongrong too!"
Ning Rongrong didn't care whether she could learn alchemy or not. A strong feeling came from her bloodline that the small Pill Furnace spinning in front of her was a treasure! Because the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul had an innate talent for treasure hunting, although Ning Rongrong had not yet awakened her Martial Soul, the strange ability of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul had begun to manifest.
