Two People Who Swapped Identities

"This damn system didn't even wait for me. Did it have to be in such a hurry?"

Ye Yang slowly opened his eyes, grumbling to himself. But the swap had already happened—what could he say about it now?

He slowly sat up in bed and looked around. Taking in the room's incredibly luxurious design, Ye Yang clicked his tongue and shook his head. The Heaven Dou Crown Prince—this identity was truly beyond noble.

He never imagined that an ordinary commoner like him would get to be Crown Prince one day. It was downright absurd.

"But wait, wasn't this Crown Prince replaced by Qian Renxue ages ago? Whose body did I actually swap into?"

Ye Yang swung his legs out of bed and went over to the bronze mirror. If even the Crown Prince's room didn't have a bronze mirror, then being Crown Prince really would be pathetic.

"Not bad." Ye Yang reached out and pinched the face, which looked so benevolent. Feeling a slight sting, he quickly pulled his hand back.

"Too bad it's probably just an illusion." Ye Yang could sense some kind of Soul Power at work on his face. It had to be the Soul Bone Skill Qian Renxue used to disguise herself.

"A spiritual-type Soul Bone. Just to impersonate someone... Should I say Spirit Hall is loaded, or that they're utterly foolish?" Ye Yang mused.

Qian Renxue was Spirit Hall's only peerless genius in a thousand years to possess Innate Soul Power at level twenty, yet Spirit Hall had sent her to be a spy. It was mind-numbingly stupid.

Of course, Qian Renxue herself had played a part in it. As a transmigrator, Ye Yang knew what had happened to her.

Her father had died when she was young, and her mother hated her with all her heart. The only one who loved her was her grandfather.

But children were emotional, after all. Even though Qian Daoliu looked after her every moment of every day, he'd forgotten that a child couldn't help longing for her parents' love.

That was what had led to all this. Hoping to earn Bibi Dong's approval, Qian Renxue had chosen to go undercover in the Heaven Dou Empire.

He wasn't Qian Renxue, so he couldn't understand how she felt, but he respected her choice. Still, if he had to judge, all he could say was that she was adorably foolish—and pitiful.

"Forget it. It has nothing to do with me." Ye Yang stopped thinking about it. He was actually glad to have this Soul Bone Skill covering up his original appearance.

It might be a little self-deceptive, but it was better than nothing. He didn't want to go around with a woman's face.

"Come to think of it, Qian Renxue really does have quite a figure." Ye Yang straightened up, feeling a certain part of his body sway. A hint of shyness and curiosity appeared on his face.

He looked around. There were no servants, but that made sense. Qian Renxue's situation was unusual; how could she have a personal maid stationed here? If she got exposed, that would be trouble.

As for Snake Lance and Pufferfish, who had come with her to protect her, Ye Yang sensed them hiding somewhere outside the room.

After obtaining the Emperor Armor, Ye Yang's perception of his surroundings had reached a terrifying level, on par with the mental perception granted by the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm Soul Ring—or perhaps even stronger.

"Ahem. Since this is technically my body now, I have to get used to it. A little touching is perfectly normal." Having found himself an excuse, Ye Yang drew a deep breath and slowly reached out with his wicked hand.

Meanwhile, on a mountainside cliff in Holy Soul Village, Qian Renxue suddenly felt that the soft, comfortable bed she was used to had become strangely damp and carried a hint of earthy musk.

Then a pungent stench abruptly assaulted her nose.

"So foul!" Qian Renxue's eyes flew open, and she instinctively stood up.

"Wait?" But once she was on her feet and about to look for the source of the smell, she realized something was wrong.

"Where am I?" Qian Renxue blinked at the unfamiliar surroundings, her face filled with astonishment and disbelief.

"No, my voice?" The voice she'd just heard clearly wasn't Xue Qinghe's. It was the unfamiliar voice of a man.

"And my body?!"

Qian Renxue hurriedly looked herself over. She wasn't wearing the noble clothes of the Heaven Dou Crown Prince, but a coarse outfit that looked incredibly cheap.

Her sense of her body had changed too. Before, the Soul Bone Skill had transformed her appearance into Xue Qinghe's, but underneath it all, she was still in her own body.

Now it was completely different. This was undeniably a man's body—not just because of his limbs. She could also feel the extra part between her legs.

Once Qian Renxue realized what it was, her cheeks flushed crimson. But she quickly calmed down and stopped thinking about it.

Frowning, she looked around. "What on earth is going on? Why did I suddenly turn into this?"

"Was it someone's attack? But how is that possible? Who could do this while two Titled Douluo are protecting me, then send me here?" Qian Renxue couldn't make sense of it.

"Or..." Qian Renxue suddenly had a daring guess. "Could I have switched bodies with this person?"

That was the only possibility she could come up with. The alternatives just didn't make sense.

But swapping bodies was already absurd enough. What kind of person could do something like that? Unless...

Qian Renxue suddenly looked up at the sky and murmured, "Was it a god?"

As the bearer of the Angel Martial Soul, she knew that gods existed in this world. Her family, the Qian Family, had worshipped the Angel God for generations.

"But why?"

Whether it was a human or a god, Qian Renxue couldn't understand why something like this had happened to her.

"I hope nothing goes wrong..."

What was done was done. Qian Renxue knew there was nothing she could do. No matter how worried she was that her identity in the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace might be exposed, all she could do now was wait.

Since she couldn't do anything, Qian Renxue turned her attention back to the body she was in now.

Ever since she'd woken up, an intensely pungent stench had kept pouring into her nose. Only now did she notice that her body was covered in patches of black sludge. She didn't have a mirror, but she could imagine she looked like a beggar.

"Tsk..." Qian Renxue liked to keep clean, and this was unbearable. She looked around. There happened to be a stream nearby. Then she looked at her current body.

Her face turned green, then purple. After who knew how much mental preparation, she finally made up her mind. She went to the stream, took off the clothes she was wearing, and revealed a body covered in black sludge.

"Whatever. It's not my body anyway." Qian Renxue gritted her teeth. After checking once more that no one was around, she removed the rest of her clothes and leapt straight into the stream.
