Qian Renxue Meets Her Mother-in-Law
Qian Renxue's breath hitched.
Yes, attacking Imperial Prince and stealing national treasures are nothing compared to impersonating the crown Crown Prince and plotting to seize the country!
But... this guy dared to threaten her?! She'd never been threatened by even Bibi Dong in her entire life!
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. The composure she had cultivated over the years had completely vanished.
Her rationality snapped instantly; she could no longer hold back!
"You bastard! I'll tear that lousy mouth of yours off first!"
She let out a low growl and pounced like an enraged female leopard, determined to teach this despicable fellow a lesson in her own way first!
Lin Hai was no pushover either, and he got up to greet him.
The two then abandoned all pretense of being Soul Saint experts and engaged in a fierce close-quarters combat battle with their bare hands.
The Porcupine Douluo outside the door had excellent hearing and could clearly hear the sounds of tables and chairs colliding, fabric tearing, and the suppressed breathing and groans of the two people inside.
He shook his head helplessly, a look of bewilderment on his face.
The two inside are a young master whom the Great Enshrined has been nurturing with all his might, and a Holy Son whom His Holiness the Pope. Both are rising stars of the Spirit Hall.
But when they start making a fuss, it's really too inappropriate and childish.
Is this the unique way these true geniuses communicate?
This unique "confrontation" lasted for about ten minutes.
Based solely on the timing, it can be characterized as a normal, colorless exchange.
Finally, Lin Hai plopped down on the ground without any regard for his image, grimacing and rubbing his aching side. Too lazy to use his Soul Skill to heal the obvious red scratches on his neck, he sighed and complained:
"If you're going to fight, then fight. It's so rude of you to twist someone's waist or aim for their face like that!"
Qian Renxue sat down as well, back to back with Lin Hai, breathing slightly heavily.
She was still twirling the jade Jade Bottle she had won between her fingers when she retorted, "A loss is a loss, why so many excuses?!"
"And even if I activate my True Martial Soul, I'm not afraid of you! Don't forget, my Six-winged Angel is also God-level Martial Soul, and it's not necessarily inferior to yours!"
Lin Hai chuckled inwardly: 'Little angel, just you wait. One day, I'll teach you a lesson!'
However, he still kindly reminded him, "By the way, when you reach level 80, remember to use Spirit Ring Pill that are over 100,000 years old to condense your Soul Ring."
"With your physical and Spiritual Power after absorbing the Elixir Pill, plus the inherent strength of the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul, condensing Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring is no problem at all."
"Among the batch of Elixir Pill I sent back to Spirit City a while ago, there was Bright Light Beast Spirit Ring Pill that was over 100,000 years old. It has a light attribute with a slight Sacred attribute, which is very suitable for you."
"Tch, do I need you to remind me of something like this?" Qian Renxue scoffed.
But then, her voice unconsciously lowered, carrying a complex emotion that was hard to describe, and she said, "Someone will bring it to me."
In fact, Bibi Dong had already given the Spirit Ring Pill to Qian Renxue during her trip to Heaven Dou City.
She just hasn't decided to forgive yet...
Lin Hai thought about it and understood.
However, he knew that it was almost impossible for Qian Renxue to immediately call out the word "mother".
Therefore, he did not dwell on the topic, and calmly stood up and said, "That's good."
His gaze then fell on the Jade Bottle in Qian Renxue's hand, and his tone became more serious. "The refining process of this Elixir Pill may take several days, so you'd better make arrangements in advance."
"I'll probably be in Heaven Dou City most of the time before the Spirit Master Competition starts. Come visit me often when you have time."
Qian Renxue nodded slightly to indicate that she understood.
When she stood up, her Soul Power fluctuated slightly, and her beautiful face had returned to Xue Qinghe's gentle and refined appearance. Her entire demeanor had also regained its composure and elegance.
She then raised the Jade Bottle in her hand and said, "I have had a very fruitful day. I will definitely come to bother you again another day."
Lin Hai couldn't help but smile as he watched this scene.
She didn't forget to provoke him before leaving; this girl is getting more and more interesting.
The two left the room and hadn't walked far down the corridor when they encountered Ye Yunyao, who was rushing over.
She was clearly not expecting to meet Crown Prince Xue Qinghe at the Shrek Academy. She was visibly stunned for a moment before quickly bowing and saying, "Greetings, Your Crown Prince!"
Then she turned to Lin Hai, nodded in acknowledgment, and looked at him with a questioning expression.
His Crown Prince, who had just been full of pride, now showed a noticeable stiffness in his body.
Ye Yunyao is one of the people she least wants to see these days.
Imagine how a young woman feels when facing a potential mother-in-law.
Xue Qinghe maintained his composure and nodded slightly, saying, "Patriarch Ye Family, there's no need for such formalities. I suddenly remembered that I have some important matters to attend to, so I'll take my leave now."
He then quickly left with the Porcupine Douluo, his back view showing a hint of haste.
Lin Hai watched Xue Qinghe leave, a look of doubt on his face. He turned to Ye Yunyao and asked:
"Sister Yunyao, His Crown Prince seems... a little afraid of you?"
Ye Yunyao shook her head with a wry smile, a helpless curve to her lips. "What do I have to be afraid of?"
"Just now, Marshal Ge Long personally went to the Ye Family. Although he didn't say it explicitly, I understood what he meant."
"Xue Ye hopes that Ling Ling can marry into the Eastern Palace and become the Crown Princess. His Highness the Crown Prince must be aware of this..."
Lin Hai was momentarily stunned, his eyes widening slightly. "Ling Ling... marrying the Crown Prince?"
He subconsciously muttered to himself: If this succeeds, the Ye Family's Martial Soul might really become extinct!
Ye Yunyao nodded, her expression becoming serious:
"Yes, I came here this time to talk to Er Long... and you, to discuss how to deal with this matter."
In fact, the so-called discussion was just an excuse. She had already made up her mind not to let Ye Lingling step into the complicated vortex of the royal family.
Putting everything else aside, given that girl's quiet and introverted personality, if she were to enter the palace, she would likely suffer countless grievances, and even protecting herself would be a problem.
Moreover, since her Martial Soul Evolution, Ye Lingling has mentioned Lin Hai to her more and more often.
How could she, as a mother, not see the admiration in his eyes?
Her deeper purpose in making this trip was actually to test Lin Hai's attitude towards his daughter.
If Lin Hai also has feelings for Ye Lingling, then she would be happy to see it happen.
As for the relationship between Lin Hai and Liu Erlong, she didn't think it mattered at all.
For many years, it has been common for the main male members of the Ye Family to have multiple wives and concubines. This was all for the purpose of having more children, thus extending their own or their parents' lives by a few more years.
Ye Yunyao herself, after losing her husband in her early years, had considered remarrying, but she took these things in stride.
Moreover, if Ye Lingling were to marry Lin Hai, then Liu Erlong would be both her aunt and her older sister.
In this way, she will have one more person to love and care for her.
