"What exactly happened..."

Qian Renxue was somewhat dazed.

Just now, she had had no line of sight, and had no idea what exactly had happened between the two sides in that strike.

All she had seen at the end was Tang Hao disappearing without a trace, while Luo Li remained unharmed.

"Miss, Tang Hao lost. He fled in a sorry state beneath the Frost Extreme King Sword."

Porcupine Douluo replied.

As Titled Douluo, though the two of them had not been capable of intervening in that terrifying strike, it had not been difficult for them to see clearly what had happened within it.

His voice trembled slightly.

"Although Tang Hao escaped by using the aftershock, he still had one arm cut off."

"We wanted to pursue and kill him, but the place where they clashed was far too terrifying at the time. Miss, our apologies..."

Porcupine Douluo and Snake Lance Douluo lowered their heads, feeling guilty over their own incompetence.

Qian Renxue froze, then followed Porcupine Douluo's gaze and only then saw the long object that had fallen on the ground.

It was an arm spirit bone.

The flesh and blood on it had already been turned into nothingness by the terrifying aftermath of Soul Power.

Tang Hao had had one arm severed?

Qian Renxue stared blankly, lost in thought.

She did not know the truth of what had happened back then.

Therefore, in Qian Renxue's eyes, Tang Hao was the enemy who had killed her father.

Tang Hao, whom their Spirit Hall had been helpless against for so many years, had actually had an arm cut off by Luo Li today?

In those beautiful golden eyes, some hidden feeling seemed to deepen by several degrees.

Luo Li landed and lightly waved his hand.

The arm spirit bone that had fallen to the ground was taken into his Soul Tool.

Since this spirit bone had dropped because of him, it was his trophy.

As the genius once entrusted with great hopes by the Clear Sky Sect, Tang Hao's spirit bones were all of rather extraordinary quality.

This arm spirit bone had also reached the ten-thousand-year level. If placed in the outside world, it would undoubtedly be a treasure enough to cause rivers of blood.

Though it was not of much use to Luo Li himself, he could give it to someone else.

Just like the Thousand-year Spirit Bone Qian Renxue had given him.

"This thing belongs to me. You two have no objections, right?"

Luo Li suddenly looked toward the two Titled Douluo who had fought Tang Hao at the very beginning, the corners of his mouth curling into a "gentle" smile.

"No, none!" Snake Lance Douluo and Porcupine Douluo waved their hands repeatedly.

What objections could they have?

They would not dare have any objections!

The arm had originally been cut off by Luo Li, and had nothing to do with them.

Moreover, Tang Hao's miserable sight was still vivid in their minds.

A Ten Thousand Year Soul Bone was naturally tempting, but their lives were even more precious.

Seeing the two of them being so tactful, Luo Li gave a somewhat regretful light sigh.

He had not had enough fighting yet.

Seeing Luo Li's regretful sigh, the corners of the two Titled Douluo's eyes twitched wildly as if fitted with motors.

In their hearts, they secretly grumbled:

Just what are you disappointed about?!

Luo Li said nothing more.

His gaze then fell on Qian Renxue, who was standing gracefully to the side, and he smiled teasingly.

"It seems Miss Qian's identity really isn't simple."

"Going out with two Titled Douluo accompanying you—this kind of treatment is something even the little witch of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect probably doesn't have."

Qian Renxue's expression stiffened.

Only then did she suddenly realize that she seemed to have overdone it a little.

With two Titled Douluo accompanying and protecting her, across the entire continent, the only one with such strength was Spirit Hall.

This was undoubtedly the same as openly telling Luo Li that she was someone from Spirit Hall!

Qian Renxue had just been about to say something when she saw that Luo Li had already turned and left.

His voice drifted over with the breeze.

"I have no interest in Miss Qian's identity. Our previous deal still stands."

"Tomorrow, I'll take the Imperial Dou Team and leave Austere City. If Miss Qian wishes to continue the trade, then come over."

Luo Li's words left Qian Renxue somewhat stunned.

What exactly did that mean?

And what was Luo Li's view of her identity as someone from Spirit Hall?

With such obvious signs, Qian Renxue did not believe Luo Li could fail to guess the strength backing her.

Yet he did not seem to have any intention of deliberately distancing himself from her because of it.

In Qian Renxue's impression, although there had not been any major conflict between Luo Li and Spirit Hall, there had still been a few minor clashes.

Wait!

Suddenly realizing something, Qian Renxue's beautiful eyes shook.

She turned her head to look at Snake Lance Douluo and Porcupine Douluo.

"Did Luo Li discover the two of you?"

Hearing this, the two Titled Douluo froze, completely baffled.

They were standing right here, and they were not invisible. Wasn't that obvious?

Why would Young Miss ask such a question?

"Young Miss, are you all right?"

Feeling the concerned gazes of the two Titled Douluo, Qian Renxue knew that the two of them definitely had not understood what she meant.

She added, "What I'm asking is..."

"When I was still using that identity, had Luo Li already discovered you?"

This was what Qian Renxue had suddenly realized.

Because Luo Li's performance today had already proven that his strength was undoubtedly above Snake Lance Douluo and Porcupine Douluo, the two Titled Douluo.

If that was the case, then when Snake Lance and Porcupine, these two Titled Douluo, had secretly protected Xue Qinghe back then, had they really not been discovered by Luo Li?

Had Luo Li, whose strength was above theirs, really failed to detect the abilities of those two?

Or had he actually discovered them long ago, and also known her identity, only without exposing her?

Thinking back to the feeling she had every time she stood before Luo Li, as if everything about her had been seen through, Qian Renxue increasingly felt that her identity might have already been exposed.

Qian Renxue's question made the two Titled Douluo freeze.

Only then did they abruptly realize the issue.

Although they very much wanted to pat their chests and say there could be no problem with their concealment, they truly did not have that confidence.

"This..."

The two Titled Douluo looked at each other.

They also had no way to determine whether Luo Li had discovered them back when Qian Renxue was still using the identity of Xue Qinghe.

That person was already beyond the scope of what they could see through.

And if Luo Li had discovered them at that time, it meant he already knew that Xue Qinghe was being played by Qian Renxue.

Then their plan to steal the nation...

"Young Miss, should we ask the Great Enshrined for instructions and request support from the worships to ambush and kill King Frost Extreme, so as to avoid unforeseen complications?"

A ruthless gleam flashed through Porcupine Douluo's eyes.

It was impossible for them to deal with Luo Li. They did not have that ability.

If they truly wanted to get rid of Luo Li, then a worship had to take action.

And at the very least, it would have to be a top-tier powerhouse like the Second Worship, Golden Crocodile Douluo.

They even felt that even if the Second Worship personally took action, he might not necessarily be able to do anything to Luo Li.

Perhaps only the Great Enshrined, as a Limit Douluo, could personally act and truly kill that person!

A Soul Douluo, yet possessing such terrifying battle strength—Porcupine Douluo could not help sighing inwardly.

"No!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Qian Renxue blurted out a denial of Porcupine Douluo's proposal.

Perhaps realizing that her reaction had been too agitated, she took a deep breath and said slowly, "I know what I'm doing with this matter. You do not need to interfere."

The two Titled Douluo exchanged a glance, then nodded slightly.

"Yes, Young Miss."

But they still prepared to report privately to the Great Enshrined.

Only, it was not about Luo Li.

It was about Qian Renxue.

Young Miss's state seemed a little off...
