Tianxiang Tower Waits in Vain! Qian Renxue's Regretful Reincarnation

Su Ling frowned, but the medicinal power was too surging at the moment, and he had no time to respond.

Seeing no one reply from inside, Ye Wanqing kicked the door open.

But upon seeing Su Ling cultivating, she didn't dare to disturb him and could only watch anxiously from the side.

In the blink of an eye, a night passed. Su Ling also stopped cultivating, and his cultivation base had soared.

He directly went from level 8 Soul Power to the current level 10, and could now go to obtain a Soul Ring.

Of course, more importantly, the aptitude of this body had been improved. His meridians had widened considerably, and his affinity with the Spiritual Energy of Heaven and Earth had greatly increased.

Su Ling stretched, and upon opening his eyes, he saw Ye Wanqing and Ye Lingling with dark circles under their eyes, guarding him.

Seeing him open his eyes, Ye Wanqing immediately pounced and grabbed his collar: "Are you crazy? The properties of those medicinal ingredients are all conflicting, how dare you—"

Mid-sentence, she suddenly froze.

"You... you broke through?" Ye Wanqing asked with wide eyes, incredulous.

"Mom... I'm level 10 now, I can go get a Soul Ring. Also... you two should get out quickly."

Su Ling impatiently pushed them both out and closed the door again.

He was covered in a foul smell, all impurities and residual medicinal power, and needed to clean himself up quickly.

From outside the door came Ye Wanqing's furious stomping: "Heartless little brat!"

Despite saying that, she was still quite happy to see Su Ling's Soul Power increase.

However, thinking of her son's sudden change in temperament and his secret purchase of a large amount of medicinal ingredients, she still felt a vague sense of unease.

"Lingling, what do you think has happened to this child recently?"

Ye Wanqing sighed and turned to look at her niece beside her.

A complex look flashed in Ye Lingling's eyes: "Aunt, I always feel like Little Ling has become a different person."

"Yesterday at the apothecary, his gaze alone scared Yan'er and Tian Heng so much they peed themselves. According to them, even the killing intent of a Titled Douluo was nothing compared to it..."

Ye Wanqing's expression changed drastically upon hearing this. She could only suppress the unease in her heart and force a smile: "Perhaps this child has been cultivating too hard recently and is under too much pressure... It's... absolutely impossible that he's been possessed by some old monster."

Yet, as she spoke, tears welled up in her eyes, and her voice trembled.

After all, Su Ling used to not cultivate much and spent his days idly.

Now, not only had his cultivation soared, but his personality had also changed. This was simply too abnormal.

Moreover, this killing intent, without experiencing countless life-and-death battles, is simply impossible to accumulate.

Douluo Continent, Heaven Dou City, Tianxiang Tower.

Qian Renxue sat alone before the mirror, her fingertips unconsciously tracing her profile.

The woman in the mirror had waterfall-like golden hair, skin as white as snow, and features like a painting.

But that nearly perfect face now held an indescribable loneliness.

Suddenly, a clear tear slid silently down her face.

She stared blankly at her elaborately dressed self in the mirror, a bitter feeling rising in her heart.

Tonight, she was supposed to meet him here.

But...

He didn't come.

The night watch drum outside struck again and again.

The moonlight slanted west, and the sky was already showing the white of fish belly.

Qian Renxue slowly removed the Golden Phoenix Hairpin from her head, letting her dark hair cascade down like a waterfall.

She looked at the woman in the bronze mirror, her makeup exquisite but her eyes hollow, and suddenly felt incredibly unfamiliar.

"Su Ling..." Qian Renxue whispered his name softly, her fingertips unconsciously clenching the hem of her skirt.

In her previous life, he had supported her ascension to the throne, but at a critical moment, he revealed her true identity, causing her to fall from the clouds into the abyss.

Afterward, he became the Emperor of Heaven Dou, but stubbornly pushed for reforms.

He wanted to fight for so-called fairness and equality for those commoners no one cared about.

Ultimately, he ended up being pointed at by a thousand fingers, betrayed by everyone.

But she, after becoming a god, learned of his fate.

Ignoring her grandfather's dissuasion, she insisted on marrying him, wanting to protect him.

When they met again in the deep palace, she thought the young man would be overjoyed. After all, he hadn't married in all these years, so he must have been waiting for her.

The young man wore a black dragon robe, his figure gaunt, his eyes filled with an unresolvable weariness and indifference.

He saw himself, but merely asked calmly, "Are you here to kill me too?"

Qian Renxue opened her mouth, a thousand words, love and hate intertwined, all stuck in her throat.

In the end, she said nothing.

She couldn't lower her pride, nor swallow her grievances.

"Issue a decree: The Empress has lost her order, and her virtue does not match her position... From today onwards, she will be relocated to the Cold Palace."

This was the last time she heard his voice, so cold it lacked any warmth.

In the Cold Palace, she would dress up elaborately every day, foolishly waiting for the person who would never come.

She thought, I am the Angel God, the most supreme being on the continent, how could he possibly bear to abandon me?

But what she waited for was only the news that he was about to marry Ye Lingling as his Empress.

In despair, she furiously killed Ye Lingling.

He came, but said nothing, only turned and left.

But that retreating figure pierced her heart more than any words.

In the end, Su Ling died, executed by Sea God Tang San in front of Heaven Dou City in the name of justice.

On that day, she furiously killed Tang San and all the rebels, but could no longer earn a single glance from him.

Qian Renxue slowly closed her eyes, letting tears soak her clothes.

In this life, she had returned to the eve of her encounter with the young man. She felt she should end this karmic entanglement.

But for some reason, she inexplicably dressed up elaborately and still came to Tianxiang Tower.

In her previous life, under Xue Beng's scheme, Su Ling had taken an aphrodisiac, but accidentally entered the wrong room, ending up in hers.

And that night, she happened to have reverted to her female form due to her soul power being depleted, and they had almost had physical contact.

But that young man, with his last shred of reason, had slashed his own arm with a knife, using the intense pain to stay conscious, and stumbled out of the room.

Qian Renxue still remembered his hoarse "I'm sorry" as he left.

However, she still didn't let him off and instead had him severely beaten and thrown into the dungeon of Martial Soul Hall.

Later, the 97th-level Super Douluo from the Su Family personally arrived.

The old man didn't say much, merely calmly stated the facts of Su Ling being schemed against.

She took the opportunity to step down, and Su Ling was taken away.

But in this life, Su Ling didn't come.

She had already prepared herself to sacrifice everything.

She had even bathed early and changed into her most beautiful dress.

But until the east turned white, that familiar figure never appeared.

Her posture, initially dignified and reserved, gradually stiffened, finally turning into a dead silence.

"Heh heh... What was I even expecting?"

Qian Renxue gave a self-mocking laugh, then abruptly stood up. The hem of her magnificent skirt swept across the table, knocking all the carefully prepared food and wine onto the floor.
