A Startling Thought: This Man Knows Everything?

Qian Renxue was somewhat speechless.

This mysterious powerhouse seemed rather difficult to get along with.

Within the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, he acknowledged only Xue Ke.

Xue Ke truly was fortunate.

She had actually gained the favor of such a powerhouse.

And according to Xue Ye,

the reason Xue Ke had been able to answer correctly was because this powerhouse had provided the answer.

He even knew all the previous answers!

A very mysterious powerhouse. No one knew where he truly came from.

After finishing her wine, Qian Renxue returned to her seat.

His guard was tight, and she could not uncover any information for now. She could only take things slowly.

Through the Sky Screen, one could actually learn that this world had many hidden powerhouses.

They were not famous, yet they possessed immensely powerful strength.

The Ye Mu before her was very likely one of those reclusive powerhouses.

His arrival in the Heaven Dou Empire might have merely been coincidental.

But now that he had formed a connection with Xue Ke, things had become troublesome.

Although she was already a Title Douluo, she absolutely could not conquer the Heaven Dou Empire through brute force.

She had to proceed step by step and successfully inherit the throne.

Then, she could pull off a cicada shedding its shell.

That would allow the Heaven Dou Empire to completely become an appendage of Spirit Hall.

Xue Ye was quite happy at the moment, and he had drunk quite a bit as well.

Ye Mu, meanwhile, understood that Qian Renxue was probing him.

He could not be bothered with her. As long as they did not disturb his peaceful life, that was enough.

Near the end of the banquet, Prince Xue Xing asked curiously, "Master Ye, there will be another Sky Screen Q&A in six days. Do you have any confidence in answering those questions?"

"You want to know the answers?"

Ye Mu smiled faintly.

Many people were now hoping to be chosen by the Sky Screen.

It was their chance to defy fate and change their lives.

As long as they could answer one question correctly, they would rise rapidly.

In a short time, they could become famous throughout the Douluo Continent.

Countless factions would seek to recruit them.

"Well... of course I want to know."

Prince Xue Xing admitted it readily.

He also hoped that he could answer correctly.

If he could be like Xue Ke and gain a top-tier Martial Soul, along with some powerful Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Rings,

he could become a Title Douluo in a single step.

A Title Douluo was every Soul Master's dream.

"Then go find the answers yourself. They aren't difficult, anyway."

Prince Xue Xing: "..."

Not difficult?

He had considered countless answers to the previous questions, only to discover after the Sky Screen revealed the answers that every single one of his choices had been wrong.

He had signed up too!

Fortunately, the Sky Screen had not chosen him. That was a blessing in disguise.

Now that Ye Mu clearly had no intention of providing the correct answers, he could only give up.

What else could he do?

Force the other man to reveal the answers?

What a joke.

The Heaven Dou Empire did not have that capability.

Although Xue Ye had not directly stated that Ye Mu was a god-level powerhouse,

he was at least at the level of a Title Douluo.

And he had to be among the strongest of the Title Douluos to make Poison Douluo treat him with such respect.

Qian Renxue's thoughts stirred.

If this Master Ye truly knew the answers, perhaps she could try getting closer to him.

If she was lucky enough to be chosen by the Sky Screen and receive another reward, could she become a god immediately?

One question had made her a Title Douluo.

If she answered another correctly, would she not become a god directly?

The Angel God King Inheritance required passing nine trials before it could truly be inherited.

The trials had now begun.

The very first one already felt extremely difficult to her.

It would likely take quite some time to complete the later trials.

Therefore, the Sky Screen was her hope.

Whether she could become a god quickly depended on whether she could answer the other questions correctly.

"Master Ye, I..."

Qian Renxue was just about to say something.

When she discovered that Ye Mu had suddenly looked at her.

That gaze seemed to have seen through everything about her.

A single glance made her heart pound violently.

She felt as if every secret she possessed had already been exposed before him.

"Don't talk too much. It won't do you any good."

"I only came here to eat. I don't want to concern myself with your little matters, understand?"

At those words, Qian Renxue's pupils contracted slightly.

There was something beneath his words!

Could it be...

Her identity had already been exposed?

Although she had used certain treasures,

a mysterious powerhouse might have methods capable of seeing through her disguise.

If her identity had truly been exposed, continuing to remain here would be very dangerous.

If those people from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect discovered it,

the Heaven Dou Empire's three Title Douluos could come after her together.

She would be at a severe disadvantage, perhaps even in danger.

Thinking of this, she quieted down.

She wondered why Ye Mu knew so many things.

And whether he had truly seen through her identity.

Xue Ye did not notice Qian Renxue's abnormality.

Although Ye Mu was unwilling to provide the correct answers,

he was still in the Heaven Dou Empire after all.

And he had a good relationship with Xue Ke, which was already a very good thing.

For Xue Ke's sake, if the Heaven Dou Empire asked him for help in the future,

he would probably be willing to lend a hand, right?

The banquet did not end until two hours later.

Ye Mu did not stay overnight in the Imperial Palace, instead returning to Moonlight Pavilion.

Inside the Crown Prince's quarters.

Two men in black appeared behind Qian Renxue.

"Did you find anything?"

"Your Highness, we found no information whatsoever. That man is too mysterious. There are no clues at all."

"Nothing?"

Qian Renxue frowned tightly.

The moment she learned that Xue Ye had been cured, she had ordered Spirit Hall's people to investigate what had happened.

"This man is dangerous. We must determine his identity."

Qian Renxue's voice turned cold.

A man of mysterious origins, one who might even know her identity,

was someone she absolutely could not afford to underestimate.

If her identity was exposed, all her years of effort in the Heaven Dou Empire would be wasted.

"Your Highness, should we ask the elders to act?"

The man in black asked.

That man's cultivation was profound, and they did not even dare approach him.

Thus, the only way to investigate him up close was to ask Spirit Hall's elders.

And it had to be Title Douluo-level elders who acted.

Even if they failed to uncover anything, nothing should go wrong.

Qian Renxue considered it repeatedly.

It was indeed necessary.

Unless she got to the bottom of it, she would never feel at ease.

"Fine. Ask two elders to investigate. Remember, do not make an enemy of him. Determining whether he is friend or foe is what matters most."

For such a mysterious powerhouse, it was best not to provoke him if possible.

But whether he was an enemy or an ally had to be determined.

Very soon, two Title Douluos from Spirit Hall arrived at her side.

"Young Mistress, we'll be back shortly!"

The two elders were very confident.

They were Qian Renxue's guardians, responsible for her safety in the Heaven Dou Empire.

Over all these years, there had rarely been any need to deploy them.

Now, it was finally their turn to act.

And they felt greatly honored.

Because Qian Renxue was now a Title Douluo.

And she also possessed the Angel God King Inheritance.

She was someone who could become a god in the future.

When she became a god, people like them might also benefit from following her.

"Go."

Qian Renxue looked solemn. The two Title Douluos quickly departed and rushed toward Moonlight Pavilion.

In the depths of the night, no one could detect their movements. They moved at extreme speed.

At Moonlight Pavilion, Xue Ke had already gone to sleep.

Ye Mu held a wine cup and leisurely admired the moonlight.

Before long, his gaze turned toward the distance.

The darkness could not obstruct his sight. He could clearly see two figures rushing in this direction.
