Looking at the smile on Oscar's handsome face, Qian Renxue felt utterly terrified; where was the slightest trace of gentlemanly demeanor?

Aren't the most talented people often the most aloof and arrogant? Why does Oscar seem like some kind of scoundrel? He can't win, he can't run away, so is he just going to give in? Ha!

Qian Renxue sneered, "Oscar, you really want me that badly? Aren't you afraid that if you push me too far, I'll commit suicide at the Sword Sect?"

Oscar's smile faded slightly, and his eyes became incredibly sharp. "It's not that I want you, it's that I have to have you."

"I won't stop you if you want to commit suicide, but I bet you won't. A person with a bright future and who is almost certain to reach the end would never want to take their own life."

"You're incredibly confident." Qian Renxue sneered. "You won the bet. I really wouldn't dare."

"But I will never give in so easily. Your ambitions are too great. Although we are of the same ilk, we can never walk the same path. Either you kill me, or I will fight you to the death!"

Oscar waved his hands repeatedly. "Don't be so heartless. I still have some bargaining chips. Don't you want to hear them?"

"Bargaining chips? My Spirit Hall has a ten-thousand-year foundation. Even if your Sword Sect has a profound heritage, what can you offer?"

Oscar gave a meaningful smile, "Don't worry, I dare to say that because I'm well prepared."

As Oscar finished speaking, he casually took out two Sausage from his Soul Tool: the Overload Leap White Jade Sausage and the Bloodline Awakening Amber Sausage.

Upon seeing these two items, similar to the Sausage Oscar had forcibly shoved into her mouth earlier, Qian Renxue couldn't help but raise an eyebrow.

Qian Renxue couldn't help but ask, "What is this? Is it also one of your Spirit Abilities?"

Oscar nodded. "The White Jade Intestine can greatly enhance Soul Master's physical qualities and grant them power beyond their limits. For ordinary Soul Master, it's no exaggeration to say it's a complete transformation."

"The function of Amber Sausage is to Bloodline Awakening. When Soul Master consume it, it can further enhance their bloodline. It can even allow ordinary people to awaken Soul Power!"

Oscar didn't hide the effects of the two Sausage; he simply stated them in a very calm tone.

After hearing Oscar's explanation, Qian Renxue was stunned for a moment, then looked incredulously at the two jade-like Sausage on the table.

Qian Renxue completely disbelieved Oscar's words. "Just these two things, have the effect of changing fate? Do you think I'm a three-year-old?"

"Not to mention this is just your Spirit Abilities! Throughout the history of Spirit Master World in the Douluo Continent, no other Soul Master has ever possessed such a Soul Skill!"

Oscar smiled slightly, "I know you don't believe me, so these two Sausage are free for you to use. You can taste their effects for yourself."

"This can be considered my advance betrothal gift to you when you marry into the Sword Sect. Of course, you don't have to eat it, but my mind will not change."

Seeing Oscar's confident demeanor, Qian Renxue frowned. She no longer cared about Oscar's teasing; she was hesitating whether she should eat it.

Oscar would never have poisoned it; even if there were poison, it would be nothing more than an aphrodisiac.

But if what he said about the effects is true, the effects of just these two Sausage alone would be enough to change the landscape of the Spirit Master World.

What's more, this is Oscar 'Spirit Abilities. In other words, this thing could be mass-produced, or even produced without limit!

Of course, if this is true, Oscar wouldn't be able to produce too many in the short term, as such an overpowered Spirit Abilities would consume a huge amount of Soul Power.

But in any case, as long as this thing is effective, the Sword Sect really has a chance to turn the tide.

If the Sword Sect and the Spirit Hall break ties, all the Sword Sect needs to do is spread the word about the effects of these two Sausage, and countless Soul Master forces will flock to them.

Given the current strength of the Sword Sect and the Spirit Hall, they are likely evenly matched. In this situation, with the Sword Sect possessing such treasures in considerable quantities, even a fool would know which to choose.

Even if the Spirit Hall has a ten-thousand-year-old foundation, if it can't offer a reward commensurate with it, how can it compete with the Sword Sect? Qian Renxue looked deeply at Oscar: "So from the very beginning when you brought me back to the Sword Sect, you had already planned all of this?"

Oscar smiled without saying a word: "No more doubts?"

Now that things have come to this point, even if Qian Renxue doesn't eat it, she can be certain that Oscar isn't lying, because there's no need for her to; she'll have to eat it sooner or later.

"Hehe," Qian Renxue glared at Oscar: "If you had taken out this earlier and talked to me properly, my impression of you might have been better."

Oscar didn't care. "I didn't actually plan to share it with the Spirit Hall so soon, after all, my stock is limited."

As he spoke, a look of helplessness flashed across Oscar's face. "But you're so stubborn, I've tried to seduce you, threatened you, but you absolutely refuse. I can't really force you, can I?"

"I had no other choice but to do this. If I didn't really bring out something good, how could you Spirit Hall, which has been planning this for so many years, give up so easily?"

Hearing Oscar's words, Qian Renxue still sneered, "Now you're normal again? Isn't the lecherous guy just going crazy?"

Oscar sighed, "That's not the point. The point is that our collaboration is indeed the best outcome, don't you agree?"

"It's just that I ended up getting the lion's share and you got the smaller share, but overall you didn't lose out, since I put in more effort."

Qian Renxue silently weighed the pros and cons. Although the two Sausage Oscar had taken out were indeed key, Qian Renxue felt they weren't enough.

The Sausage's effects were incredible, but not enough to make her give up.

And her intuition told her that Oscar was definitely hiding something good.

Noticing Qian Renxue's expression, Oscar was somewhat displeased. "Don't bite off more than you can chew. I advise you not to have any dangerous ideas."

Qian Renxue suddenly smiled, her stunning beauty seemingly capable of captivating a nation. Her tone was calm, her breath sweet as orchids. "I've thought about it seriously. If I really want to find a man I can rely on and trust, you are indeed the best choice. I can accept that you have other women by your side, but I have a few small requests."

"If you can grant my request, then I'll do as you say. The Spirit Hall and the Sword Sect will unite, I'll marry you, you'll sit on the Imperial Throne, and I'll do whatever you want. How about that?"

Oscar was quite surprised by Qian Renxue's sudden change in attitude. Wasn't she supposed to be love-struck? How did she suddenly become so wise? Beneath that beautiful smile seemed to be a ferocious wolf ready to devour its prey. Where was this the crying angel from the original work who was always whining?

Oscar also wanted to know what kind of situation the other party was setting. "Tell me, if it's a reasonable request, I naturally won't refuse."

Qian Renxue slowly raised a slender, jade-like finger. "First, besides the two Sausage you just mentioned, all your other Spirit Abilities with this magical effect, including the one you gave me earlier, should be given to the Spirit Hall."

"After all, when I'm with you, it's not too much to treat my woman and her family well, right?"

Oscar nodded in agreement. "Not unreasonable."

Seeing Oscar agree, Qian Renxue raised her second finger. "Second, if we form a marriage alliance, after the Spirit Hall and the Sword Sect cooperate, the quotas for the Divine Inheritance Land should be divided equally, with the Spirit Hall taking at least 40%."

"You are also aware of the drawbacks of the Angel God inheritance, so I will not back down on this point."

"After all, I'll be with you then..."

Upon hearing this, Oscar immediately interrupted her, not wanting to hear her continue. Wasn't she just trying to get benefits by claiming she would be his woman in the future?

Oscar nodded again. "Okay."

Qian Renxue raised her third finger. "Third, I can allow you to have other lovers, but the position of mistress can only be mine."

Oscar did not agree to the third point, but calmly looked at Qian Renxue and said, "It seems that everything I said before was in vain..."

Qian Renxue smiled slightly, "I know you value relationships, so I can take a step back for you."

"You are a genius, a genius even more dazzling than me. I cannot accept having mediocre people around you, so I have a suggestion."

Oscar asked, "What suggestion?"

"Find some time to call all your confidantes over, let's have a fight, and whoever is the strongest will be the mistress, your rightful wife."

Upon hearing this, Oscar's expression became very subtle. He really wanted to tell Qian Renxue that if that were the case, she probably wouldn't have a chance in this lifetime.

However, Oscar naturally couldn't show it. Oscar looked conflicted and said, "Actually, in my opinion, there is no distinction between primary and secondary. As long as they are my women, I will treat them all equally. You can rest assured about that."

Qian Renxue didn't refute, her smile remaining unchanged, "I absolutely believe you, but you should also understand women. Even if you treat everyone equally, we will definitely have our hierarchy in private."

"Therefore, ranking people by strength is naturally the best way. I never believe in any first-come, first-served order. In the Spirit Master World, it has always been the case that those who have achieved the highest level are the teachers, hasn't it?"

Hearing this, Oscar inexplicably felt that it made a lot of sense. But upon closer reflection, he realized he didn't have any female confidantes. This time, Oscar sneered, "Heh, you certainly know how to talk. You, someone with Divine Inheritance, are arguing with 'ordinary people'? How dare you say that!"

Qian Renxue smiled brightly, "Likewise, I've already conceded. If you don't agree, then let's not talk about it."

"Besides, I didn't say now. Five years or ten years from now is fine too!"

Hearing this, Oscar sneered repeatedly. "Five years, ten years later? By then you'll be a god!" Dugu Yan could hear this scheming Slaughter City! But if Oscar were to tell Qian Renxue now that Dugu Yan had already become Soul Douluo and was valued by the Asura God, wouldn't Qian Renxue immediately back out?

Seeing Oscar's discomfiture, Qian Renxue felt inexplicably happy, as if none of the previous conditions could compare to this last one.

Qian Renxue said calmly, "Give me a straight answer, whether you agree or refuse. This grown man is behaving like a little girl."

Oscar remained silent for a long time, seemingly struggling, before finally making a difficult decision. "I can agree to your condition, but from now on, the Spirit Hall must fully cooperate with me. Can you guarantee that the Spirit Hall will listen to you?"

Qian Renxue smiled confidently, "As long as you can guarantee what you promised me, everyone in the Spirit Hall will obey your orders."

After a pause, Qian Renxue revealed a rare hint of confidence. "Whether you believe it or not, I am the future of the Spirit Hall, and my grandfather will fully support my goals."

Oscar extended his hand. "Okay, I believe you."

Qian Renxue extended her delicate hand and shook hands with Oscar, showing no trace of disdain whatsoever. It was as if she had been acting from the very beginning, all for this moment.

Releasing her grip, Qian Renxue couldn't help but sigh, "I really didn't expect that little guy from back then would have grown to this extent. Can you tell me how you did it?"

Seeing Qian Renxue suddenly sigh, Oscar actually quite liked her in this authentic state.

After a moment's thought, Oscar slowly uttered four words: "Having endured many hardships."

Despite the seemingly pretentious words, Qian Renxue didn't react much. She didn't think Oscar was showing off, but instead showed an expression of empathy.

"You are indeed remarkable to have emerged from the Slaughter City." Qian Renxue squinted at Oscar. "I didn't expect you to be so cunning at such a young age. On the surface, you have been taking over the affairs of the Sword Sect for the Sword Sect few years, but in secret, you have already reached a level that even I can hardly reach."

Oscar sighed, "We had no choice but to do this because of the circumstances."

"And aren't you the same? You chose to give up your womanhood to become an undercover agent during the prime of your life, and you've even made it to your current position. You're quite remarkable too."

The two inexplicably started praising each other, which made Qian Renxue and Oscar feel a little strange.

Qian Renxue suddenly asked, "How did you discover my identity?"

Oscar had already prepared his story, and he had even planned it from the very beginning.

Oscar looked nostalgic. "Do you remember when we were in your private garden?"

Qian Renxue's thoughts were drawn back to several years ago, when she was confident that her identity as the Crown Prince of the Empire would not be exposed, and even wanted to win over Oscar, this young prodigy, to her side.

"At that time I did not know you were a woman, but some of your subtle movements made me very suspicious."

"It was just a very friendly hug, but your body was as stiff as a bamboo pole. Once, I accidentally spilled Fruit Tea on your chest, and when I wiped it off for you, you kicked me away like a cat with its fur standing on end..."

Oscar recounted the details of what happened back then, bit by bit, Qian Renxue's face gradually turned crimson. "Shut up, stop talking!"

"You doubt my identity based on just these things? But even if you do doubt me, how did you guess it at our first... second meeting today? And what's your basis for that?"

Oscar smiled slightly, "Want to know?"

Qian Renxue nodded. "Of course, I need to know where I went wrong so I can be even more meticulous in the future."

Oscar thought about it, and realized he really hadn't figured out how to explain it.

After a long while, when Qian Renxue was almost getting impatient, Oscar finally said slowly, "Aura."

"Aura?" Qian Renxue asked in confusion, "Impossible. I have the Angel God Armor to disguise myself. Even Titled Douluo couldn't see through it. How could you?"

P. S.: Typos will be corrected first and then fixed later.
