Two Qian Renxues

Luo Can took Qian Renxue's hand and walked side by side toward the entrance of the mountain stream, while Ji Juechen followed behind without saying a word.

After Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin led Xue Qinghe and "Bai Xue" into the mountain stream, they found it eerily quiet. Not to mention Spirit Beast, they couldn't even hear the chirping of insects or birds; the only sound was the rushing of the stream.

"Strange, why isn't there even a trace of a Spirit Beast here?" Xue Qinghe scratched his head, looking puzzled. "Logically speaking, there should be at least a few Hundred-Year Soul Beast in the deep mountain streams of Sunset Forest."

However, Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin did not reply. They simply stared intently ahead, as if waiting for something.

Three figures were seen slowly walking down the stream. Leading the way was a young man in white, handsome and gentle, looking like an ordinary scholar. To his left stood a girl in a black dress, with long silver hair and dark gold eyes, stunningly beautiful. Behind them followed a man in a gray robe, carrying a long sword, his face expressionless, exuding a cold aura that kept strangers at bay.

"Sect Master Ning, Sword Douluo, how have you been?" Luo Can greeted him with a smile.

"Pavilion Master Luo, I have completed the task you entrusted to me," Ning Fengzhi with a slight bow.

As soon as he said this, Xue Qinghe and Bai Xue behind him were both stunned.

Xue Qinghe stared wide-eyed at Luo Can and the other two, thinking to himself: The one holding the sword should be the Sword Obsessive Douluo's been making headlines lately, but who is this young man in white leading the group? How come he doesn't have any Soul Power Wave at all? And that girl in the black dress, she's so beautiful! He stared at her, completely mesmerized.

Bai Xue's reaction was completely different. When her gaze fell on the woman in the black dress, her heart skipped a beat. Not only did she smell an extremely familiar Angel Martial Soul aura on the woman, but her face also looked seven or eight parts like her own!

This person is definitely related to me!

Just then, the woman in the black dress turned her gaze and met her eyes. A glint of light flashed in her dark golden pupils, and Bai Xue instantly felt the Six-Winged Angel Martial Soul within her body throb uncontrollably, as if she had encountered a relative of the same origin, or as if she had encountered her natural nemesis.

"Teacher, who exactly are they?" Xue Qinghe finally came to her senses and couldn't help but tug at Ning Fengzhi's sleeve.

Ning Fengzhi didn't speak, but just quietly looked at Luo Can, waiting for him to speak.

Luo Can stepped forward, a faint smile on his face, his gaze landing directly on Bai Xue: "Nice to meet you. Let me introduce myself, my name is Luo Can. I asked Sect Master Ning to bring you here today, not for anyone else, but for you."

"Me?" Bai Xue's heart tightened, but she forced herself to remain calm and asked, "Sir, we've never met before."

"Mistaked me for someone else?" Luo Can smiled. "Miss Bai Xue, should I call you Bai Xue, or should I call you— Qian Renxue?"

???

!!!

Xue Qinghe suddenly turned his head to look at "Bai Xue" and said, "Sister Snow, what did he... what did he call you?!"

Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin were also shocked when they heard this name.

They were familiar with the name Qian Renxue. She was the daughter of the former Pope Qian Xunji, a prodigy who was said to possess the God Level martial soul "Six-Winged Angel". However, there were rumors on the continent that this Young Master died after awakening her martial soul and was no longer alive.

Moreover, they had personally witnessed "Bai Xue's" martial spirit, which was a white bird, rare but definitely not Six-Winged Angel.

Bai Xue was deeply shaken.

We've been discovered? How could that be!

The disguise of the Angel Head Bone was so perfect that even Titled Douluo couldn't see through it. Over the years, she had used this Spirit Bone to deceive countless powerful figures, including Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo.

She forced herself to steady herself, her face displaying just the right amount of confusion and innocence:

"Your Excellency, I do not know who this ' Qian Renxue ' you speak of is. I am Bai Xue, His First Prince's maid."

"Oh."

The woman in the black dress suddenly chuckled and took a step forward.

"You don't even dare to admit your own name?" She looked at Bai Xue, her eyes full of mockery. "Indeed, to gain that woman's approval, you were willing to hide your identity and come to Heaven Dou City as an undercover agent. But unfortunately, with me here, all her plans will only come to naught."

As soon as she finished speaking, she suddenly released her martial spirit.

Six pairs of black wings unfurled behind her, the two contrasting auras of holiness and darkness intertwining to create a terrifying pressure. Immediately afterwards, nine Spirit Ring slowly rose from beneath her feet, neatly arranged around her body.

Black, black, black, black, black, black, red, red, red!

Six blacks and three reds!

At this moment, the entire mountain stream fell silent.

Xue Qinghe's mouth dropped open, his eyes wide with shock. Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin also gasped, their faces filled with disbelief. In all their lives, they had never seen such a terrifying Soul Ring Configuration!

"You two, wait outside the mountain stream." Black-Dress Qian Renxue looked coldly at Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin. "What happens next is our private matter and has nothing to do with you."

Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin exchanged a glance, said nothing, and turned to leave. They were joking; someone with such a Soul Ring Configuration was not someone their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect could afford to offend. They couldn't meddle in such a private matter.

"Teacher! Wait for me! Take me with you!" Upon seeing this, Xue Qinghe was so frightened that her legs went weak. She turned around to chase after him, but her legs felt like they were filled with lead, and she couldn't take a step.

"Smack."

A gentle force struck the back of his neck, and Xue Qinghe's vision went black. He immediately fainted and collapsed softly to the ground.

Having dealt with the unrelated people, Black-Dress Qian Renxue looked at "Bai Xue" again, her tone calm. "Now that there's no one around, take off your disguise."

Bai Xue's expression shifted rapidly. She knew she had been exposed, and there was no point in continuing to pretend.

After a long silence, a soft white light suddenly shone from her body. When the light faded, the disguise on her face completely disappeared, revealing her true appearance.

If the Black-Dress Qian Renxue is a mature, aloof, and thorny dark older sister, then the Qian Renxue in front of us is a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl with fair skin, clear eyes, and an aura of holiness.

Two girls who looked exactly alike but had completely different temperaments gazed at each other quietly.

"Who exactly are you?" the young girl Qian Renxue asked first.

"I am you." Black-Dress Qian Renxue smiled. "To be precise, I am you from the future."

"The future?" The young girl, Qian Renxue, frowned, her face full of disdain. "Ridiculous! Do you think I would believe in time travel?"

"You'll believe me," Black-Dress Qian Renxue said casually, "Because there are some things I must show you with your own eyes."

As she spoke, she raised her right hand, and a pure dark energy condensed at her fingertips. Before the girl Qian Renxue, could react, she tapped her fingertip lightly on the other's forehead.

"Hmm!"

The young girl Qian Renxue, suddenly changed her expression, feeling as a massive surge of information rush into her mind. Immediately afterward, a series of unfamiliar yet familiar images flashed rapidly before her eyes.

The first scene is the magnificent Pope Palace.

Bibi Dong sat high on the Pope throne, coldly looking at her son who had just awakened his martial soul. There was not a trace of maternal warmth in her eyes, only disgust and hatred.

"You are just as filthy as your father!"

The second scene is from when I was nine years old.

Bibi Dong called her to her side and told her that for the sake of the Spirit Hall's great cause, she would infiltrate the Heaven Dou Empire, replace the First Prince Xue Qinghe, and gradually take control of the entire Heaven Dou Empire.

So, she left the Spirit Hall alone, leaving behind her only loving grandfather, and came to the unfamiliar Heaven Dou City. She kept a close eye on Xue Qinghe's words and actions at all times, and it took her three whole years to successfully replace him, beginning a twenty-year undercover career.

The third scene is from twenty years later.

Just as her Nation-Stealing Plan was about to succeed, Bibi Dong suddenly sent a letter ordering her to immediately ascend the throne and become empress, then cooperate with the Spirit Hall to launch the Soul Hunting Operation. It was this hasty and opportunistic order that completely exposed her identity. Her plan, which she had dedicated her entire youth to, was thus ruined at the last moment.

The fourth scene is the smoke-filled Jialing Pass.

Qian Daoliu stood atop the Angel God Temple, giving her a kind smile.

"Xiao Xue, this is all the help Grandpa can give you."

Having said that, he ignited his own life and soul, transforming into a golden flame, to initiate the final inheritance of the Angel God Trial for her. In the flame, the old man's figure gradually dissipated, leaving only a final, gentle instruction. "Xiao Xue, Grandpa will always be proud of you."
