Who Could It Be?

Then who could it be?

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect? Ning Fengzhi was a possibility!

After all, he loved making connections with all kinds of people.

But he didn't meet the requirements either, did he?

The most powerful? Apart from those two, only the imperial family qualified.

Suddenly, Yang Ziyuan seemed to remember something.

Could the person he was about to meet be her?

"Clan Leader Yang, I'm sorry to trouble you. Please forgive me for Qinghe's intrusion!"

Just then, a pleasant voice reached Yang Ziyuan's ears, making him pause in surprise.

He hadn't expected Qian Renxue to arrive so quickly.

"Haha! Your Highness, you're an honored guest. How could you be intruding? Please, take a seat!"

When Xue Qinghe arrived, Yang Wudi hurried over to welcome him.

After exchanging pleasantries, Yang Wuhui got straight to the point. "May I ask why Your Highness has come to visit us today?"

Xue Qinghe paused, taken aback.

"And this is?"

"Oh, Your Highness, this is my eldest uncle, Yang Wuhui. We were only recently reunited. The young man beside me is my nephew, Yang Ziyuan, and he's also the young clan leader of our Breaking Clan! If all goes well, he'll be the clan leader one day. We hope Your Highness will look favorably on him!"

"Of course, of course!"

After Yang Wudi introduced them, Xue Qinghe clasped his hands and exchanged a few polite words.

At that moment, her eyes were fixed on the mark on Yang Ziyuan's forehead.

If she wasn't mistaken, that mark definitely came from a God Trial!

She had once seen a similar mark in the Qian Clan's records.

According to her grandfather, the mark recorded in those books was the sign that the Angel God had bestowed a God Trial upon the Qian Clan.

So she was certain Yang Ziyuan was undergoing a God Trial from some deity!

At the thought, Qian Renxue completely forgot why she had come.

After all, even ten thousand members of the Breaking Clan couldn't compare to a single divine successor!

"Brother Ziyuan, you're so young, yet Clan Leader Yang thinks so highly of you that he's made you the young clan leader. Your future must be limitless! We should get together more often from now on!"

Hearing Xue Qinghe's words, Yang Ziyuan gave an awkward smile. "Certainly, certainly!"

With Qian Renxue gazing at him so intently, Yang Ziyuan felt uneasy. It looks like my identity has been exposed!

At that thought, he wanted to slap himself.

If only he'd worn a headband to cover the God Trial Mark!

Now that Qian Renxue had discovered he was a divine successor, how was he supposed to escape the quagmire of Heaven Dou City?

"Qinghe came today mainly to invite the Breaking Clan to join the Tiandou Empire. From what I understand, life hasn't been easy for the Four Great Clans since the battle back then. If your clan is willing to join the Tiandou Empire, I'll report to my father and find a good place for the Breaking Clan to develop. The empire's noble titles could even be made available to you!"

Hearing Xue Qinghe's offer, Yang Wudi didn't answer directly. Instead, he looked at Yang Ziyuan.

Yang Ziyuan subtly shook his head.

"Your Highness, we appreciate your kindness, but after what happened last time, the Breaking Clan will never again live under someone else's authority. So I'm afraid we must decline."

"I was too forward."

"Second Uncle, shouldn't we hurry back to Vast Sea City?"

Only after Xue Qinghe had gone did Yang Ziyuan speak to Yang Wudi.

"Nephew, what's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry to go back?"

Yang Wudi was puzzled by how urgently Yang Ziyuan wanted to return to Vast Sea City.

"Second Uncle, we just turned down Xue Qinghe's invitation. There's no telling whether he'll cause trouble for us behind the scenes. For safety's sake, we should leave Heaven Dou City as soon as possible!"

More importantly, he had to get away before Qian Renxue figured things out!

Otherwise, once Qian Renxue sent a Titled Douluo after him, it would be too late to run!

Yang Wudi pondered for a moment.

"In that case, let's set off for Vast Sea City."

"Good!"

Meanwhile, after being rejected, Qian Renxue immediately returned to her chambers.

"Uncle She!"

"Young Master, what are your orders?"

At Qian Renxue's call, Snake Lance Douluo emerged from the shadows.

"Investigate Yang Ziyuan! I want everything about him within three days!"

"Yes!"

Snake Lance Douluo bowed respectfully and withdrew.

Watching him leave, Qian Renxue's lips curled into a smile.

Yang Ziyuan, you can't escape my grasp!

What Qian Renxue didn't know was that Salas was reporting her every move to Bibi Dong in full.

Spirit Hall, Pope Palace.

"Your Holiness, Lord Salas has sent new intelligence."

"You may leave."

As Bibi Dong read the report handed to her, her expression grew grave.

The report said that Qian Renxue wanted to recruit the Breaking Clan. Bibi Dong immediately understood that Qian Renxue was simply trying to build up her own strength and prove her worth to her!

Still, one thing puzzled her.

Why had Qian Renxue sent Snake Lance Douluo to investigate a six-year-old child?

Just as she was wondering about it, a bewitching figure suddenly appeared in the palace.

Bibi Dong's brows knitted together.

"Rakshasa God, what are you doing here?"

Bibi Dong was surprised to see Rakshasa God appear out of nowhere.

Aside from announcing the God Trial tasks and handing out rewards, she never paid Bibi Dong any attention.

Bibi Dong hadn't expected her to show up of her own accord today!

"I came to answer your questions, of course!"

At that, Bibi Dong's suspicions deepened.

"Rakshasa God, what do you mean?"

"Don't you want to know why your daughter is paying so much attention to a six-year-old child?"

Seeing Bibi Dong's confused expression, Rakshasa God teased her.

"She likes paying attention to things like this. What can I do about it? Besides, I don't want to know!"

Bibi Dong replied, displeased by Rakshasa God's words.

"Are you sure?"

"...Fine! Tell me, why is she paying attention to that boy?"

Perhaps it was a mother's love, but Bibi Dong still couldn't stop worrying about Qian Renxue.

"From what I understand, that child is now the successor to the Destruction God King! In other words—"

Before Rakshasa God could finish, Bibi Dong cut her off.

"What? That child is the successor of a deity?!"

Bibi Dong was shaken by the news.

She had endured countless hardships to obtain the Rakshasa Godhood!

How could the boy have obtained his so easily?

Now she finally understood why Qian Renxue wanted to investigate him.

It turned out she wanted to take him under her wing while Bibi Dong wasn't paying attention!
