Even if she became a god, she might not necessarily gain the upper hand.
After all, the Sea God had ascended through faith and possessed immense strength.
"Dongfeng, what are you looking at?"
Xue Qinghe followed Tang Dongfeng's gaze and happened to spot a little girl.
The girl wore luxurious clothes, with a delicate little face and a pair of long legs—enough to play with for years.
"Dongfeng, is this your type?"
Xue Qinghe sneered inwardly. That girl was indeed pretty, and Xue Qinghe knew her.
"She's built like a washboard. She's not even as good as those older girls."
Tang Dongfeng pointed at several girls in cheongsams greeting guests outside the Heaven Dou Grand Hotel.
They looked seventeen or eighteen, with pretty faces and excellent figures, without a trace of excess fat.
"People grow up."
Ning Rongrong had been a beauty since childhood. She would definitely be stunning when she grew up.
Besides, Tang Dongfeng himself was only around ten years old.
"Go call Rong Rong over."
Xue Qinghe instructed an attendant, putting on the air of someone eager to play matchmaker for Tang Dongfeng.
This was what it meant to cater to someone's preferences.
No matter how dissatisfied she was with Tang Dongfeng, she would not show it.
"Brother Xue, you know each other?"
Tang Dongfeng was somewhat surprised.
That person was actually Ning Rongrong, the eldest daughter of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
What kind of luck was this? He had only come out once and had already run into so many characters from the original story.
"She is my teacher's daughter, the eldest daughter of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. She seems quite suited to you. With Brother Xue acting as matchmaker, plus your uncle's strength as a Super Douluo, a marriage alliance should not be a problem."
Xue Qinghe began making the match on the spot.
If Ning Rongrong and Tang Dongfeng got together, and Xue Qinghe built a good relationship with Tang Dongfeng, it would be equivalent to drawing both Sea God Island and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to their side.
In that case, would Spirit Hall's conquest of the continent still be far away?
"I think Brother Xue has misunderstood. Although I enjoy looking at beautiful women, it is only for my own pleasure. We are still young and should focus on cultivation. We are not suited to falling in love."
Dating?
Dating my ass.
What could he even do at ten years old? Besides, in six years, the ten-year deadline for the Sea God's First Trial would arrive.
He had to grow strong enough within six years to force the Sea God to compromise. That would require unrelenting effort.
Later, the three of them shared a meal at the same table before going their separate ways.
Before they parted, Xue Qinghe gave Tang Dongfeng a personal token representing Xue Qinghe's identity.
Ning Rongrong, however, did not think much of it and did not take Tang Dongfeng to heart.
At ten years old, he had level twenty-one Soul Power. That seemed fairly decent, and his Innate Soul Power was probably level eight or nine.
After all, Ning Rongrong was already ten and a half this year, yet she possessed level twenty-three Soul Power.
Tang Dongfeng could not even out-cultivate a Support Soul Master. What future could he possibly have?
After meeting Tang Dongfeng, Ning Rongrong promptly forgot about him, treating it as nothing more than a meal.
Xue Qinghe, on the other hand, returned to the Prince's Mansion, sat at the desk, and sank into thought.
"Porcupine Elder, Snake Spear Elder."
At Xue Qinghe's soft call, two tall figures immediately appeared before her.
"Young Mistress!"
These two Titled Douluo treated Xue Qinghe with utmost respect.
Because Qian Renxue was not only the Great Enshriner's granddaughter, but also the person most likely to become a god.
It could be said that from the moment she was born, she had stood at the peak above others, destined to become a deity.
"Tell me, what do you think of Tang Dongfeng?"
After returning to the Prince's Mansion, Xue Qinghe had been pondering Tang Dongfeng's affairs.
She did not know whether this person's appearance was good or bad, or whether he would affect her plans.
"This boy's talent is ordinary, and he has the fatal weakness of lustfulness. There is nothing remarkable about him himself. It is only that the Titled Douluo at his side is very strong."
Snake Lance Douluo commented.
He truly could not understand why the Young Mistress was paying attention to a mere brat.
Other than his uncle being a Titled Douluo, what did he have that was worth recruiting?
Just like Dugu Yan, apart from having a Titled Douluo relative, she herself was merely average. At best, she would become a Soul Douluo.
"Porcupine Elder, what about you?"
Xue Qinghe shot Snake Lance Douluo a glance as though looking at an idiot.
She truly did not know how he had cultivated himself to this point. Could it be that he was all brawn and no brains, capable of nothing but cultivation?
That was why he was such an idiot.
"Young Mistress, Tang Dongfeng is unfathomable. He appears to reveal flaws everywhere, yet he is actually keeping his distance from you. There is only one thing this subordinate does not understand: why would a boy of such mediocre talent have a Titled Douluo protecting him at all times?"
Porcupine Douluo was sharper and could see some of Tang Dongfeng's unusual traits.
"Porcupine Elder, you are mistaken on one point. That is not a Titled Douluo, but a Super Douluo."
Xue Qinghe frowned tightly.
Although they had spoken for quite a while today, Xue Qinghe had not managed to extract much useful information.
She had deduced those two people's identities only by consulting Spirit Hall's secret historical records.
As for Tang Dongfeng, he was like a cloud of mist, impossible for her to grasp, see through, or make sense of.
"What exactly is your purpose?"
Resting her cheek on one hand, Xue Qinghe stared at the moonlight streaming through the doors and windows, lost in thought.
Chapter 10: The Big Cat and Little Fox. Xue Qinghe immediately wrote a letter and handed it to Porcupine Elder.
She had to inform Qian Daoliu that the heir of Sea God Island had come to the continent.
Sea God Island's strength was enough to affect the situation across the entire continent, especially Spirit Hall's plans to conquer the continent.
She had lurked in the Heaven Dou Empire for more than a decade. She could not let Tang Dongfeng alone ruin everything.
After Porcupine Elder left, only Snake Lance Douluo remained to protect Xue Qinghe.
If that Super Douluo made a move, Snake Lance Douluo would be completely unable to stop him.
Therefore, they needed to remain highly vigilant in the days ahead.
Meanwhile, inside the Heaven Dou Grand Hotel.
Tang Dongfeng leisurely crossed his legs and gazed at the scenery outside the window.
Not far away, Sea Dragon Douluo wore an unpleasant expression. He disliked the aura of Land Soul Masters.
"Dongfeng, what exactly are you trying to do?"
Sea Dragon Douluo could not understand it. He had clearly told Tang Dongfeng that there was something wrong with that crown prince.
The two Titled Douluo following him were clearly not forces from Heaven Dou City.
This His Highness the Crown Prince was probably a fake as well.
They had used Substitute the Crown Prince with a Cat in an attempt to subvert the entire Heaven Dou Empire. The scale of their scheme was enough to send chills down one's spine.
In Sea Dragon Douluo's view, it was best not to get involved in this mess.
"Uncle Sea Dragon, I know what I'm doing. Come with me to the Prince's Mansion tomorrow."
How could Tang Dongfeng not know?
As a transmigrator who had read the original story, how many people could understand who Xue Qinghe was better than he did?
He was merely curious what Qian Renxue looked like.
As for Qian Renxue wanting to use him to help Spirit Hall unify the continent—
In his view, there were no eternal enemies in this world, only eternal interests.
Ultimately, he and Qian Renxue were the same kind of people.
They were merely using each other.
The next morning, the two arrived before the Prince's Mansion.
"Please inform His Highness the Crown Prince that Tang Dongfeng is here to see him."
Before they had parted yesterday, Xue Qinghe had given him a token, but he simply refused to use it. He just wanted to mess around!
"Get lost, get lost. Do you think you can see His Highness whenever you want?"
The Prince's Mansion guards had all been replaced with Spirit Hall personnel, so naturally they could not let him enter.
Without Xue Qinghe's token, even if Xue Ye himself came, no one else would get through.
For an unknown person like Tang Dongfeng, the guards could not even be bothered to acknowledge him.
"I'm a friend of your crown prince. If you don't believe me, go ask him."
Tang Dongfeng continued.
"Get lost, get lost. If you're His Highness's friend, then I'm friends with the Pope!"
