Qin Feng Meets Qian Renxue, Fiancé?!

Yu Xiaogang set down his teacup, staring at that iconic blonde hair before shifting his gaze to the bloated, obese figure beside him.

It was only then that he managed to begrudgingly recognize them.

"Oscar? Dai Mubai?"

Yu Xiaogang stood up abruptly, his face filled with shock and bewilderment.

"How did you lot end up in such a wretched state!"

Upon hearing the Grandmaster's inquiry, the resentment in Dai Mubai's eyes deepened.

He dropped to his knees with a thud, tears streaming down his face as he began to weave a web of lies.

"Grandmaster, honorable committee members!"

"The three of us brothers were just getting familiar with the academy grounds when we heard someone insulting the Royal Academy."

"That person said this academy was nothing but a trash heap and that the committee members were all useless fools."

"As members of the Royal Academy, we couldn't stand for it and went to reason with him, but he used his superior soul power to beat us!"

He spoke with such righteous indignation that he made black seem like white.

When the three committee members heard this, their beards bristled with fury, and they flew into a rage on the spot.

What?

On the grounds of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, someone actually dared to be this arrogant!

"Preposterous!"

Meng Shenji slammed his palm onto the table with such force that the high-quality mahogany tea table cracked instantly.

"Since that person is not a student of the Royal Academy, then it must be entirely his fault!"

"To dare run wild in our academy and lay hands on our students—do they really think the three of us old bones are just for show?"

Yu Xiaogang was equally shocked, followed immediately by a surge of boundless rage.

The Shrek monsters he had raised had finally managed to transform from pheasants into phoenixes and arrive in Heaven Dou City.

Who dared to bully his students like this?

This was practically shitting on Yu Xiaogang's own head!

"Three committee members, this matter absolutely cannot be left at that." Yu Xiaogang's face was stern, his attitude exceptionally firm.

"Our Shrek students cannot suffer such grievances in vain; we must go and demand an explanation from that person!"

Meng Shenji nodded repeatedly, expressing his absolute support.

After sending people to inquire, the group quickly learned that the young man who had done the beating had just been summoned by Crown Prince Xue Qinghe.

Upon hearing this news, the three committee members let out a cold snort, not retreating in the slightest.

They marched aggressively, leading Yu Xiaogang and the rest of the Shrek group straight toward the Crown Prince's East Palace.

Since it was someone summoned by the Crown Prince, it would be perfect to have His Highness the Crown Prince step in as well to teach this ignorant, arrogant brat a lesson.

Walking at the back of the procession, Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, and the others exchanged glances.

They felt secretly smug, even beginning to rejoice in their hearts.

With three Soul Douluo-level committee members personally backing them, no matter how strong that brat was, he was going to be in for a world of hurt today!

Zhu Zhuqing, Ning Rongrong, and the other girls followed at the end of the group, their hearts filled with curiosity.

Who on earth was so domineering that they dared to be so reckless within the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, beating Dai Mubai and the others into such a miserable state?

Meanwhile, in the secluded cultivation area behind the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

Dugu Yan trotted through the bamboo forest, returning to the private courtyard where her grandfather, Dugu Bo, resided.

As soon as she entered the courtyard, she pouted, her eyes turning slightly red.

"Grandfather!"

Dugu Yan rushed forward, embracing Dugu Bo, who was busy tinkering with medicinal herbs.

A faint, lingering flush still stained her fair cheeks.

She recounted in detail what had happened on the academy's shaded path just moments ago.

She emphasized heavily that she had almost been molested by a few thugs calling themselves Shrek.

When Old Poison heard this, his hair and beard stood on end, his eyes widened, and his fury ignited instantly.

"Who is so bold?"

"To dare touch my precious granddaughter—they must be tired of living!"

Old Poison's temper was notoriously protective; emerald-green poison gas began to leak uncontrollably from his body, causing the surrounding flowers and plants to wither instantly.

Dugu Yan hurriedly grabbed Dugu Bo's sleeve and gave it a gentle shake.

Her voice turned much softer and more coquettish.

"Grandpa, don't be angry yet. I was saved by someone later on."

Qin Feng's handsome, calm face and the imposing figure he cut while swatting those two away flashed involuntarily through her mind.

Dugu Yan's cheeks flushed even redder as she lowered her head to stare at her toes.

The shy, girlish posture left Dugu Bo stunned.

Having lived for so many years, how could the old man not recognize the look of a girl whose heart had been stirred?

He widened his eyes, his face full of astonishment.

"Who is this brat who saved you?"

Dugu Yan gently tugged on Dugu Bo's arm, launching a charm offensive.

"Grandpa, I don't even know his name. He didn't look like someone from the academy."

"Could you help me look into his background? He hurt those thugs to save me, and I'm worried he might be ganged up on."

Watching his granddaughter, Dugu Bo sighed, speechless.

This wasn't worry about the boy being bullied; it was clearly a heart completely smitten, fearing the boy might suffer even the slightest grievance.

His own fresh, succulent cabbage had truly fallen for some unknown brat.

However, Dugu Bo was also incredibly curious.

Who on earth had the guts to bully his precious granddaughter?

And which young punk had managed to capture her heart so quickly with just a single move?

"Alright, alright, stop shaking me. You're going to shake my old bones apart."

Dugu Bo patted Dugu Yan's hair dotingly.

"Grandpa will go find out for you and see just what kind of boy has such charm."

Heaven Dou Empire, Crown Prince's East Palace.

Qin Feng followed behind an attendant, strolling leisurely into the magnificent, opulent hall.

The moment he stepped inside, he saw Xue Qinghe, dressed in luxurious brocade robes, standing before a large desk.

When Qian Renxue, disguised as Xue Qinghe, turned around and her gaze fell upon Qin Feng, a flicker of brilliant light flashed in her eyes.

The youth before her was truly too handsome.

His posture was as upright as a pine, and even his casual stance exuded an indescribable air of distinction.

What shocked her even more was that Qin Feng seemed to radiate a faint, fatal attraction.

A resonance originating from the depths of her bloodline made her Six-Winged Angel martial soul yearn to draw close to him.

Recalling the specific instructions in the letter from her grandfather, Qian Daoliu, Qian Renxue's heart rate quickened uncontrollably.

Even the man's face she wore became tinged with an unnatural flush.

"You are Qin Feng?"

Qian Renxue coughed lightly to mask her inner turmoil, trying her best to keep her voice steady and authoritative.

Qin Feng looked at the person before him, who wore a man's face but displayed such a bashful expression.

"Ahem!"

Qin Feng waved his hand, pulled up a chair without ceremony, and sat down, crossing his legs.

"I say, Miss Qian, can we talk while wearing a different face?"

"You're wearing a grown man's face while making that expression—it's honestly making me feel a bit sick."
