Qian Renxue
Ning Fengzhi stepped into the black hole and left, leaving Marshal Ge Long sitting helplessly in his seat, unsure whether Xue Qinghe was actually an imposter from the Spirit Hall.
The only thing we know is that these major sects are truly a cancer on the Heaven Dou Empire. They kill even a prince of the country without hesitation, showing utter recklessness.
"Indeed, what is there for them to fear about the Heaven Dou? The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and the Star Crown Sect together have five titled figures, and they are all powerful figures among the titled figures."
Ge Long knew he had no other choice. The Heaven Dou Empire was now divided into two factions: either he should pledge allegiance to the Spirit Hall or to one of these two major sects and support Xue Beng to take the throne.
He had basically come to believe Ning Fengzhi's words. If Xue Qinghe was alright, Ning Fengzhi, as the Imperial Tutor, would have no need to support a stranger to take the throne.
A few minutes later, Marshal Ge Long's carriage left the Marshal Estate and drove into the residences of the two generals he trusted most, both of whom were among the civil and military officials with high Soul Power Level.
Beneath the tranquil Heaven Dou Imperial Capital, undercurrents were beginning to surge. Suddenly, shocking news spread from the residence of Prince Xue Xing of the Heaven Dou Empire.
The dignified Prince Xue Xing was assassinated in his own residence.
The news began to spread throughout Heaven Dou City. Many ministers recalled the shocking words he had once uttered in court, and their gazes toward Xue Qinghe during the next Grand Court Assembly became somewhat strange.
Xue Qinghe was also surprised. He did want to take action against Xue Xing, but not at this critical moment. Who was framing him?
Marshal Ge Long, standing below, stared at him for a long time but still couldn't find any flaws. He shook his head helplessly, his eyes hardening.
The titles of the two major sects have been bestowed, and his orders have been conveyed to his two trusted subordinates. The imperial guards in the palace have also been taken over. The arrow is nocked and must be released.
"My dear ministers, rumors are spreading throughout the city, but as you have seen, I have been staying with you all these past few days, and there is absolutely no possibility of me making a move."
Xue Qinghe wanted to explain a few more words, but suddenly a noise came from outside the palace gate. It was the clanging sound of the guards' weapons falling to the ground.
His expression changed instantly. The unexpected had arrived. Xue Ye only had two days left to live. Why did these people have to come and hinder him?
Amidst the astonished and uncertain gazes of the crowd, Ning Fengzhi slowly walked in from outside with the Sword Bone Douluo. He walked to the front and stared intently at Xue Qinghe on the throne.
"Teacher, what are you doing?"
"I dare not be your teacher. My only student is Crown Prince Xue Qinghe of the Heaven Dou Crown Prince, not you, an undercover agent impersonating him."
The heartache and anger of being deceived for so many years erupted in Ning Fengzhi's heart, and his voice even trembled slightly.
Xue Qinghe's face darkened, and the ministers were shocked. Ning Fengzhi's words were even more unbelievable than what Xue Xing had said before.
"Why would the teacher frame Qinghe? What did Qinghe do wrong?"
"The Death Warrior I sent the day before yesterday was right next to you when Bone Douluo was there."
Hearing this, Qian Renxue gritted her teeth. That Death Warrior was indeed suspicious. When exactly did Ning Fengzhi begin to suspect him?
She still wanted to struggle in her death throes, Ning Fengzhi didn't give her that chance. He gave the Soul Emperor he brought with him a look, and the Soul Emperor charged forward without hesitation, wielding his scimitar.
Some of the civil and military officials tried frantically to stop it, but were stunned into place by a beast's roar.
They turned around in alarm and saw an unexpected person: Marshal Ge Long, who had been standing silently at the front of the group, had somehow completed the Martial Soul Possession.
Similarly, there were two other generals at the Soul Saint level. The three of them formed a wall, blocking everyone's advance.
"Marshal Ge Long, what exactly do you want to do? Do you also want to betray the Heaven Dou Empire?"
"Gentlemen, there's no point in saying more. Let's just watch closely. The person in the hall is no longer the Crown Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire."
Two subordinates stopped the ministers. Ge Long turned around, staring at Xue Qinghe sitting above, ready to make a move at any moment.
Qian Renxue, observing Ge Long's actions, knew perfectly well that he had long been turned against Ning Fengzhi and his ilk.
As the Curved Blade Soul Emperor drew closer, her expression grew increasingly grim. She feigned rolling to dodge the blade, but a huge gash was slashed open in her abdomen.
Seeing Ning Fengzhi and Ge Long standing still without making a move, Qian Renxue knew that she had been completely exposed, the situation was hopeless, and the mission had failed completely.
She held nothing back, and the Angel Sword appeared in her hand. With a single strike, she pierced the heart of the Curved Blade Soul Emperor. Her Angel Wings flapped behind her, and she instantly soared into the sky, flying towards the outside of the palace.
These changes shocked everyone present. The ministers fell to the ground in disbelief. Was Crown Prince Xue Qinghe really a fake?
Ning Fengzhi frowned. Crown Prince Xue Qinghe was actually a woman in disguise. Moreover, he had underestimated the status of this undercover agent in the Spirit Hall. Six-Winged Angel, she was a direct descendant of Qian Daoliu.
"Uncle Gu, don't stop him. Let him leave. We can't withstand Qian Daoliu's wrath right now."
"Okay, but the Star Crown Sect hasn't shown up yet. They probably have something to do."
"Ignore it, let's go back to the sect. Chen Rong has broken through to level 90, let's go to Sunset Forest to get him Soul Ring."
Ning Fengzhi turned and left with the Sword Bone Douluo, while Ge Long stayed behind to clean up the mess and rescued the Fourth Prince Xue Beng, who was being held captive in a side hall of the palace.
"Damn it, Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Ge Long, I'll remember you."
Qian Renxue sent a distress signal into the sky, and the Snake Lance Douluo and the Pufferfish Douluo, who had been waiting outside the palace, rushed over. Seeing the bleeding wound on her waist, they were in a panic.
"Young Master, are you alright?"
"It's alright, my identity has been exposed, let's leave immediately."
"Yes, let's go quickly."
Even though Bone Douluo wasn't chasing after her, Qian Renxue still felt uneasy. Supported by the two Douluo, she flew towards the direction of Spirit City.
The three of them quickly left Heaven Dou City. Qian Renxue looked at the mist that suddenly appeared around them and the four masked men in front of them. Her heart sank. The thing she was most worried about had happened.
Despite the oppressive aura, the Snake Lance and the Pufferfish stood at the forefront of Qian Renxue's defenses, even though they knew they were no match for her.
"Who exactly are you? We are from the Spirit Hall. Aren't you afraid of being hunted down by the entire continent?"
"If they knew it was us who did it."
"Young Master, let's go quickly."
The Snake Lance Douluo and the Pufferfish Douluo unleashed their attacks simultaneously, Qian Renxue quickly retreated, attempting to escape.
