"You eliminated the Xue Beng?" Su He asked, looking at Qian Renxue with some surprise.

It should be noted that Xue Ye kept a close eye on his youngest son. Xue Beng had stayed in the palace all these years without leaving the palace, which was Xue Ye's way of guarding against Qian Renxue.

"No matter how much he hides, can he escape the assassination attempt of Titled Douluo?" Qian Renxue sneered and said disdainfully. Ever since being enlightened by Golden Crocodile Douluo last time, she was no longer willing to waste time on such palace intrigues. If the matter were exposed, she would directly suppress the Heaven Dou Empire.

"Three months ago, Xue Beng recklessly ran to the restaurant. On his way back, I arranged for Uncle Cixue to use poison to send him to his death."

Su He silently gave a thumbs up, "Xue'er is amazing!"

"When that old bastard Xue Ye questioned me, I said I knew nothing. Unable to get any answers, he immediately fainted from a stroke," Qian Renxue continued, clearly very satisfied with the progress of her Usurpation Plan.

Of the four princes, only Xue Qinghe remains, and the throne of the Heaven Dou Empire has already been seized by Qian Renxue.

Even if Xue Ye regretted it, he would have no other choice.

What's even more ridiculous is that when Xue Beng went to court the day after he died, those ministers who were once part of Xue Beng's faction suddenly transformed into staunch supporters of Xue Qinghe. If Su He saw their true colors, she would surely burst out laughing.

"You've had a tough year dealing with things at court, Xue'er." Su He put her arm around Qian Renxue's waist and stroked the latter's soft, golden hair.

"Hmph, so you do know how to care about me." Qian Renxue turned her head away and snorted coldly, venting her small dissatisfaction.

"You stinky He'er, you haven't woken up for a year, you're like a dead pig." Qian Renxue pouted, then bit Su He's shoulder, causing the latter to cry out in pain.

"Hiss~" Su He reluctantly touched Qian Renxue's head, then said seriously.

"But that's fine too. You're no longer a threat in the Heaven Dou Empire. That old fox Ning Fengzhi didn't say anything, did he?"

"No, he's still fully supporting me," Qian Renxue said with a smile. Supporting her was in Ning Fengzhi's best interest; in his mind, it was a sure-fire deal, so naturally he would do it.

Su He sneered inwardly. Although Ning Fengzhi was a profit-driven man, he had one great advantage: he knew how to be pragmatic.

If Ning Fengzhi sensible in the future, it wouldn't be impossible to leave the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to him. In fact, the key to their Martial Soul advancement is still in his own hands.

Su He believed that Ning Fengzhi was a smart man.

"After obtaining the Soul Ring, I will head to the Secret Realm." Su He seemed to suddenly remember something, and said this abruptly, then stopped herself from saying anything more.

"And then what happened after we came out of the Secret Realm?" Qian Renxue's eyes flickered a few times, as if she had guessed something.

"You're leaving again, aren't you?" Her beautiful purple eyes suddenly dimmed.

Su He remained silent and chose to remain silent.

Where to?

"The Slaughter City"

"But you've only been here for less than two years." Qian Renxue turned her head away, no longer speaking or paying attention to Su He, which made Su He sigh and hug Qian Renxue from behind.

Qian Renxue trembled slightly, but remained silent.

"The Slaughter City a dangerous place; countless powerful Soul Master have gone in and never come out again."

After a short while, Qian Renxue broke the silence.

"You have to believe me, Xue'er," Su He was about to say.

"Su He!" Qian Renxue interrupted Su He directly, staring intently into his eyes.

"Besides supporting my grandfathers and you, I have no other relatives. Do you understand?"

Qian Renxue's voice trembled slightly, clearly indicating strong emotional fluctuations.

"If you really want to go, then defeat me! Six-Winged Angel!" As soon as she finished speaking, the Six-Winged Angel's Martial Soul possessed her, and six Soul Rings, yellow, purple, black and white, appeared one after another.

The oppressive aura of the level 66 Assault Type Battle Spirit Emperor poured down on Su He, but Su He did not back down in the slightest.

He is determined to become stronger, and he will not yield an inch when it comes to training! Even if Qian Renxue tries to stop him, it will be useless.

Moreover, the main quest that Stirring the Winds and Clouds requires obtaining a certain domain, leaving Su He with no choice but to go to the Slaughter City.

"Abyssal Golden Lion!" Su He closed his eyes and summoned his Martial Soul. The Abyssal Golden Lion was not afraid of an opponent who was 16 levels higher than him, and head-on met the pressure of the Six-Winged Angel.

"He'er, are you really only satisfied when you've fought me?"

Qian Renxue looked at Su He and asked, her jade hand already gripping the Angel Holy Sword tightly, as if she would draw her sword immediately if Su He didn't agree.

Su He opened her eyes and looked at Qian Renxue's beautiful face. There was a hint of helplessness in her eyes, but more than that, there was an undeniable determination.

"Sigh." Unexpectedly, Qian Renxue was the first to dispel the Martial Soul Possession, sighed, and then bumped directly into Su He.

"I want you to swear that you will come back alive and well." She bit her lip, as if she had used all her strength to say those words.

Su He pulled the beauty into his arms and whispered.

"I swear by my Martial Soul, the Abyssal Golden Lion, I will definitely return to Xue'er's side alive."

Hearing this vow, the Little Angel finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Under the beautiful moonlight, she slowly raised her head, and their lips met.

A long and unforgettable kiss was imprinted in their hearts, becoming Su He's most beautiful memory before she left.

The next day, early morning.

Su He and Golden Crocodile Douluo had already boarded the carriage heading to Sunset Forest.

"I heard you're going to the Slaughter City." Golden Crocodile Douluo's tone was very calm, revealing no emotion whatsoever.

"Please believe in your disciple Teacher." Su He's tone was certain and unwavering. If Tang San could accomplish something, he naturally had great confidence in himself.

"Take this jade pendant." Golden Crocodile Douluo didn't say much, but handed a jade pendant to Su He.

"If you go to the Slaughter City, I will wait outside. If you encounter danger, crush it, and I will sense it."

"Our Spirit Hall also has a God of Slaughter, so the King of Slaughter will probably give us some face."

"Thank you, Teacher." Su He felt a warmth in her heart upon hearing this.

Although his parents passed away at a young age due to a mission, the love and care Su He received from his grandfather, Teacher, and elders in the Worship Hall was genuine.

This made Su He feel incredibly at ease.

Sunset Forest is not far from Heaven Dou City. After a long journey of more than half a day, Su He and her companion stepped off the bumpy carriage.

It was already night, and Su He and Golden Crocodile Douluo rested for the night at an inn outside Sunset Forest. The next day, they stepped into the forest.
