What Did the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect Ever Do to You?
Both of them were intrigued at the same time.
Qian Renxue was curious about what Qing Luan Douluo had gone off to do.
Shi Yueyi was curious about what kind of person this other Peak Douluo was.
"He went to Fasinuo Province," Radiant Feather Douluo said slowly.
"Fasinuo Province, in the southwest of the Heaven Dou Empire?" Qian Renxue raised an eyebrow.
She knew that place.
Nominally, the Heaven Dou Empire had one duchy and four kingdoms under its jurisdiction, but in reality, the foundations of those small states had originally been provinces.
In recent years, those small states had gradually begun to be infiltrated by Spirit Hall, and the Heaven Dou Empire's control over them had actually become quite weak.
The remaining five major provinces, meanwhile, were directly governed by the imperial family.
"Yes. The incident that happened earlier in Ice City in the north is already being investigated." Radiant Feather Douluo nodded. "Azure Luan possesses one of the finest flying-type martial souls of the present day. Reconnaissance and tracking are effortless for him."
Qian Renxue gave Radiant Feather Douluo a surprised look. Would Grandpa really agree to you two doing this?
Radiant Feather Douluo seemed to see through Qian Renxue's thoughts and shrugged. "Didn't he send the two of us back into action?"
Shi Yueyi's eyes lit up. "Grandpa Guang Ling, are you saying Grandpa Azure Luan can also be considered someone who operates in the shadows on the battlefield?"
Radiant Feather Douluo looked at the little girl, then smiled. "Not necessarily. It's simply because of his martial soul."
He glanced at Qian Renxue, and Qian Renxue nodded at him.
It meant there was no problem. He could go ahead.
"Qing Luan Douluo's martial soul is the Azure Luan Divine Bird. It possesses top-tier wind-attribute abilities and can use sound waves as a means of attack. At the same time, his eyesight is exceptional." Radiant Feather Douluo said, "Little girl, let me test you. What does that tell you?"
"It tells me he's very powerful." Shi Yueyi smiled sweetly.
Guang Ling: "..."
Qian Renxue was momentarily embarrassed. "Little Shiyue, Grandpa Guang Ling is asking what role you think Grandpa Azure Luan plays on the battlefield."
"Many roles." Shi Yueyi thought for a moment. "He can be an assassin, a support, or a controller. I don't know what this Grandpa's soul skills are like, but based on his attributes, that should be the case."
"Wind represents speed, which means he can directly assassinate opponents when they are completely unprepared. And this Grandpa also has sound-wave attacks, which means his Spiritual Power is likely not bad either. Exceptional eyesight means reconnaissance ability. Finally, wind can also be used for control. For example, Grandpa Azure Luan might possess an ability that creates something like an aerial domain to restrain his opponents."
Radiant Feather Douluo nodded lightly. "Not a bad analysis. That guy really is a jack-of-all-trades, useful wherever he's needed."
Then his expression changed, and he said with a grin, "But with this old man around, he doesn't need to worry about assassination."
"You two really are made for each other..." Shi Yueyi said with a sigh.
"?"
Qian Renxue's expression turned strange.
"A perfect pair of partners," Shi Yueyi added.
"Ahem—" Qian Renxue coughed. "So, Grandpa Azure Luan sensed that guy had fled to Fasinuo Province?"
Radiant Feather Douluo nodded. "The aura that fellow left behind has basically dissipated, but there is still a trace of it lingering in Azure Luan's senses. Clearly, the other party's aura is still in disorder and his internal injuries are severe, which is why he left behind a flaw."
Shi Yueyi shook her head. "That just feels like someone without the ability but determined to show off. Like a sewer rat. I saw the look in his little eyes—gleaming, yet hiding a trace of fear. Even when he attacked, he kept looking around, as if he was terrified someone would spot him."
Qian Renxue and Radiant Feather Douluo exchanged a look.
You know what, it really was Haozi.
"Then we'll wait for Qing Luan Douluo to return." Qian Renxue interlaced her fingers. "Then we'll formulate the specific plan. The plan will be called—"
"Mouse Catching Game?"
The current situation was a little strange.
Shi Yueyi knew that Qian Renxue was not really Xue Qinghe.
Qian Renxue could more or less guess that Shi Yueyi might know she was not really Xue Qinghe.
She could even sense that this little girl was not as simple as she appeared to be at seven years old.
Radiant Feather Douluo had also noticed something suspicious. These two girls were both putting on an act for each other.
And yet, neither of them said it outright.
They just kept bottling it up.
Yet whenever they talked, they tacitly assumed the other already knew about it.
Radiant Feather Douluo found it quite amusing.
The two of them thought like frogs, hopping back and forth between the two lily pads called "Qian Renxue" and "Xue Qinghe."
And whenever Qian Renxue changed identities, Shi Yueyi could keep up in time.
There was not the slightest flaw.
For example—
"Oh, right." Qian Renxue said, "Little Shiyue, I put in a word with Heaven Dou Royal Academy. I'm preparing to send you there to study for a while."
"The academy where your younger brother is studying too?" Shi Yueyi curled her lips. "What if he bullies me? Can I beat him up?"
Qian Renxue laughed. "My younger brother is a Soul Elder now. If you can beat him, then go ahead. But looking at what a wastrel he is, I can't even be bothered to manage him."
Shi Yueyi shrugged. "What if he's pretending?"
"Pretending?" Qian Renxue raised an eyebrow.
"Well, barking dogs don't bite," Shi Yueyi said carelessly.
"Actually, it's not like I haven't considered that possibility." Qian Renxue sighed. "But that brat's nature is just like that. He's probably still somewhere indulging himself with his disreputable friends right now."
Guang Ling: See? Now they had naturally hopped onto the lily pad named Qian Renxue again, without even needing a transition.
"You're just worried there might be some bad consequences, right?" Shi Yueyi shrugged. "After all, everyone in the Heaven Dou Empire knows that His Highness the Crown Prince is you now. And Xue Ye has no choice, because he's always going to die eventually. Other than you, he has no one to choose."
The second prince and third prince were already gone. If something happened to the fourth prince too, Qian Renxue might as well tear off the human-skin mask on her face and put on a new one that read: "I am the mastermind behind it all."
"Leave this matter to me." Shi Yueyi narrowed her eyes. "Consider it repayment for saving my life."
Qian Renxue smiled silently, then gave a soft hum.
"This way, you'll also have time to focus properly on your cultivation." Radiant Feather Douluo tilted his head and spoke quietly.
"What about your cultivation time?" Qian Renxue asked.
"It won't delay me." Shi Yueyi blinked and returned to her usual expression. "That cultivation method you gave me is really useful."
How could it not be useful? Qian Renxue thought. That cultivation method was adapted from the Angel Divine Art. Weaken it another seven or eight times, and it would become the Universal Meditation Method Spirit Hall issued to ordinary soul masters. Its whole purpose was universal applicability.
Now, it seemed that it was also fairly suitable for a Body Martial Soul.
The Angel God Ancestor had become a god, after all. It was the legacy she had left behind.
Qian Renxue reached out and rubbed Shi Yueyi's little head. "Cultivation must always come first. If this matter delays your cultivation, I'll send you away and make you leave Heaven Dou City."
"Now, I need you to answer one question." Qian Renxue looked at Shi Yueyi. "What did the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect ever do to you? Why did you say before that it had a problem?"
I can't exactly say that Ning Rongrong from that sect can use a resurrection technique, can I?
Shi Yueyi scratched her head.
