Qian Renxue's Confession (Seeking Recommendation and Monthly Votes)

Inside Long Yu's dormitory, Long Yu lay on the bed. Spirit Hall had long since sent healing-type Soul Masters to treat Long Yu and Qian Renxue. Qian Renxue had mainly suffered a mental attack and still needed some time to recover.

On the other hand, although Long Yu was covered in blood and looked utterly miserable, the healing-type Soul Masters discovered that his body was brimming with vitality. The external wounds had already scabbed over, and new skin had even grown back.

Both his physical constitution and recovery ability far surpassed what a Soul Grandmaster should possess. The healing-type Soul Masters were greatly puzzled and could only report the truth to their superiors.

After using a large number of spiritual items capable of replenishing blood and vitality, the healing-type Soul Master left. She truly did not know what else she could do.

Long Yu lay on the bed, wrapped up like a rice dumpling, while Qian Renxue sat by his bedside to keep him company.

"Xiao Yu, I'm sorry. It's all because I didn't listen to you back then that we ended up in such a situation and nearly got ourselves killed," Qian Renxue said guilt-riddenly.

"Sister Ning'er, let the past stay in the past. I only hope that you can restrain your arrogance more in the future and never underestimate any enemy," Long Yu said, shaking his head.

As someone chosen by the Angel God, Qian Renxue's pride was innate. Still, Long Yu hoped she could restrain it somewhat. Otherwise, once someone like her failed, problems would arise.

Take Xue Beng from the original story, for example. Qian Renxue had handled that poorly. She had actually been fooled by Xue Beng, believing him to be useless, and had not gotten rid of him.

What a guy—Xue Beng, the ultimate winner in life. He had practically won without doing anything and became the Emperor of the Heaven Dou Empire.

"I... I'll do my best," Qian Renxue said after pursing her lips.

"Oh, right, Xiao Yu, how were you able to communicate with Soul Beasts back then?"

"Secret!" Long Yu certainly could not say, Actually, my Martial Soul is the ancestor of Soul Beasts. Right now, I'm basically the Dragon God in human form, except this human-form Dragon God is still very weak.

"Hmph! Why... why did you shield me behind you back then? Do you know how powerful Mo Yu's sixth soul skill was? If Chrysanthemum Douluo hadn't arrived in time, you... you would have..." Qian Renxue said, her eyes reddening slightly.

"I would have died, right? I'm not afraid. I said it before—I will protect you for the rest of my life! Even if it costs me my life, I won't hesitate," Long Yu said firmly.

He had deliberately not called her Sister Ning'er, instead simply saying "you."

"Y-you shouldn't be so foolish in the future. We haven't even known each other for long. It's not worth doing that much for me," Qian Renxue said, her pretty face flushing slightly.

Qian Renxue, what are you thinking? He's only a child barely over six years old.

"No. Some people know each other for a lifetime and still remain like strangers, while others know at first glance that they are meant for a lifetime. You are the person I want to wait for and protect for the rest of my life!" Long Yu said.

Call it love at first sight or lust at first sight, but Qian Renxue was the one Long Yu had chosen.

I said it. No one can change that.

"Y-you... I'm ignoring you!" Qian Renxue felt her face burning, and her mind immediately became a little muddled.

She... she had actually been told something like that by a six-year-old child. This, this was simply... too... surprising.

Watching her graceful figure leave, Long Yu smiled, though he also felt somewhat irritated.

Why was he only six years old now? He could not do anything at all.

And he always felt that saying those things just now with his current identity had been rather strange.

"System, do you have something like growth hormones available for auction?" Long Yu asked unwillingly.

"Ding! The system provides you with twenty-four-hour service.

In reply to the host, apologies. The system is currently in its initial stage and can only issue missions and distribute rewards.

Once the host breaks through level 30 and reaches Soul Elder, Glory Service can be activated. At that time, the system will provide the host with a more perfect experience.

By then, not to mention growth hormones, even Viagra will be available for purchase. Please look forward to it."

The system's mechanical voice rang in Long Yu's mind, but he felt as though the system was being far too serious while saying something like that.

Glory Service sounded pretty good.

As for Viagra, Long Yu stated that he had absolutely no need for it. He was already more than sufficient.

Three days later, Long Yu had finally fully recovered his vigor. Moreover, under the effects of the Meteor Tear, he could clearly feel that his physical constitution had improved once more, and his Soul Power had also risen by one level, reaching level 26.

This counted as surviving a great disaster and receiving good fortune afterward.

"Xiao Yu, I have something to tell you. I don't want to hide it from you anymore," Qian Renxue said hesitantly as she arrived at the entrance to Long Yu's dormitory. This counted as deception, didn't it?

"Go ahead, Sister Ning'er," Long Yu said, faintly guessing what it was.

It seemed that his efforts had finally paid off somewhat. He had entered her heart now, hadn't he?

"Actually... actually, my name isn't Qian Ning'er. My name is Qian Renxue. I'm the granddaughter of Spirit Hall's current Great Enshrined, and I came here to win you over," Qian Renxue said uneasily.

Over the past few days, she had thought about many things. In the beginning, she had indeed come here solely to recruit Long Yu into the Elder Hall.

But as time passed, she felt that she was drifting farther and farther from her original purpose.

Although Long Yu was only around six and a half years old, she truly felt a special emotion toward him.

In just a few short months of being together, she had experienced a completely different kind of relationship and care.

Especially when Long Yu had shielded her behind him that time, it had given her a sense of security and dependence.

She could not explain exactly what it was, but she liked the feeling.

She was accustomed to loneliness, but she did not like being lonely.

Yet she no longer wanted to keep it hidden. She had decided to come clean to Long Yu.

"Mm, I actually guessed it a long time ago. The only Soul Masters in Spirit Hall with the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul are on the Great Enshrined's side. I had already guessed that before, because your Martial Soul is too special," Long Yu said. He was greatly delighted by Qian Renxue's honesty, as it meant he had gained her recognition, but he still put on a calm appearance.

"Y-you aren't angry, or at least extremely shocked?" Qian Renxue was astonished by Long Yu's reaction.

She had come here to recruit Long Yu. Moreover, as the granddaughter of Spirit Hall's Great Enshrined, with Spirit Hall behind her, her background could be said to be unmatched. Was this little brother really not surprised? Or did he simply not understand?

"If you want to tell me, then tell me. If you don't, I won't force you.

I believe that when the time comes, you'll tell me.

Besides, I have secrets of my own that I haven't told you either, so I guess that makes us even. No matter how noble your status is, in my heart, you're still Sister Ning'er. Though now, calling you Xue'er seems more fitting," Long Yu said, shaking his head.

He had quite a few secrets himself—the Dragon God Martial Soul, along with the system. But as for the system, Long Yu had no intention of telling anyone about it, including Qian Renxue.

"Th-then, all right. This year's Genius Camp has already ended, and my grandfather knows about what happened between us. He said... he wants to meet you. What do you think?" Qian Renxue was somewhat surprised by Long Yu's maturity, but she still stated the main purpose of her visit.

At the same time, she eagerly awaited Long Yu's answer.

In her view, Long Yu could not have a better choice than this. Being summoned by the Great Enshrined of the Elder Hall was something countless soul masters dreamed of for their entire lives.

If he was there, then maybe she would not feel so lonely anymore. After all, he was the only peer she truly acknowledged.

With Long Yu's talent, surely some Enshrined would take him as a disciple. Even if none did, she would beg her grandfather to accept Xiao Yu as his disciple.

For his sake, Qian Renxue was willing to set aside her pride.

"Alright. I'll go with you," Long Yu answered Qian Renxue without hesitation.

After all, he was his future grandfather. There was no problem with meeting him now, and honestly, Long Yu did not know where else to go at the moment.

"Then it's settled. No taking it back!" Upon hearing Long Yu's answer, Qian Renxue's eyes curved into crescents with delight.

She then skipped away, only to return very quickly.

"What is it?" Long Yu asked, confused.

"What did you just call me?" Qian Renxue raised her little pink fist.

"Xue'er. Does it not sound nice?" Long Yu seemed not to realize the seriousness of the situation.

"Call me Sister Xue'er. I'm older than you!" Qian Renxue said, pretending to look fierce.

"Older?" Long Yu glanced at Qian Renxue's appearance that day, at her curvaceous figure beneath her golden palace dress.

Indeed, very mature. Nothing wrong with that.

"Bastard! Where are you looking?!" Qian Renxue caught the strange look in Long Yu's eyes.

"I was wrong, Xue'er. I'll still dare to do it next time." Pig-slaughtering screams rang out without end.
